The Temptation of the Banquet

Chu Luoci cursed in his heart and followed Yanque to the study.

You really treat her like a maid!

In the study, Yanque took out the Four Treasures of the Study, then sat aside and looked up at Chu Luoci.

"What are you staring at? I'm studying ink for you."

Chu Luoci walked over, put two drops of water into the inkstone, and began to grind the ink.

She regarded the inkstone under her hand as Yanque's face and used such force that Yanque couldn't even see it.

"I would like to remind you that the ink in your hand is made by a famous artist and is worth a thousand gold."

Chu Luoci put down the ink stick with a snap and said, "If the prince feels that I am not doing well, you can replace me with someone else."

Yanque smiled and said, "That's not possible. My king's study is such a secret place. Of course, ordinary people cannot come in."

Chu Luoci paused and realized that Yanque was waiting for her here!

After her rebirth, she did not deliberately hide her personality or her medical skills.

It's normal for Yanque to have doubts about her.

However, Yanque was still able to keep his composure and had never asked her openly before.

Now it seems that the test of Yanque has finally come.

Bring her into the study to see if she can steal the secrets of the study, or does she think she is a spy sent by some prince?

Chu Luoci picked up the ink stick again, grinded the ink, and pushed it to Yanque: "Your Highness, please use it."

While writing at the banquet, Chu Luoci silently began to look at the cabinets on both sides of the study room.

On the Duobao grid, the empty space was the Nine Heavens Mysterious Needle that she had touched before.

Her movements as she looked at that grid were not ignored by Yanque.

Yanque stopped the pen in his hand, raised his head and asked: "I still want to ask, was that box taken away by you that day?"

When asked, Chu Luoci did not panic and said confidently, "The set of Nine Heavens Mysterious Needles that I will use to cure the prince's poison in the future was taken from the prince and used for the prince. How can you say that I am just taking advantage of it?"

Seeing Chu Luoci take away his things smoothly and look confident, Yanque burst out laughing.

"No problem, but that set of Nine Heavens Mysterious Needles is a tribute from the Southern Barbarians. Ordinary people can't recognize it at all. Even I only found out after hearing what the Southern Barbarian envoy told me. That set of needles has a great background. How did you do it?

Do you know?"

Yanque looked at Chu Luoci with an appraising look.

Could it be that... this little girl is not an informant sent by his brothers above the court, but is a spy of an enemy country?

If this is the case, then her identity is even more worthy of investigation.

Chu Luoci naturally felt Yanque's appraising gaze.

She didn't take it seriously. It was normal for Yanque to have doubts about her identity. Since she had doubts, no matter how she explained it, she could just let him doubt her. Anyway, she didn't intend to steal any secrets from Yanque.

.

But Yanque was not as easy to fool as Chu Luoci thought.

After he put the pen aside, he didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly said to Chu Luo: "I heard that the daughter-in-law of the General's Mansion is very beautiful and has a good hand in small regular script. Her writing was even praised by the emperor of the dynasty. I don't know.

Is it my honor to have Miss Chu write a letter?"

Chu Luoci sneered and said bluntly, "Your Majesty, you can change your face faster than turning the pages of a book. When you don't need me, tell me that you have the final say in this palace. When you want to see me write, I will be Miss Chu?"

Yanque looked at her with a smile, "Then will you write it?"

Chu Luoci nodded, "Write."

On the surface, she looks calm and calm, but on the inside, she looks at Yanque with admiration.

If she guessed correctly, Yanque might have begun to doubt her identity.

She knew that there were many disguise techniques in the world, and Yanque must have noticed that her behavior was different from before, and he even began to doubt whether she was really the concubine of the general's palace.

It's just that Yanque's approach made her a little disdainful.

Calligraphy can be imitated. If it were her, it would be better to ask a famous doctor to take a pulse.

The scar on the face of the concubine of the general's palace and the internal damage to her body can be detected with just a pulse.

What's more, the original owner had difficulty conceiving due to an injury when she was young. This alone cannot be false.

Chu Luoci has been smart since he was a child. Whether it is regular script or running script, or thin gold cursive script, he can master it easily.

She recalled in her mind the original owner's handwriting in small regular script. Although the handwriting could not be exactly the same, it was not difficult to imitate it to an eighty or nine point degree. Anyway, it should be enough to fool the banquet.

The calmness on her face had already eliminated half of Yanque's worries. Looking at her handwriting in small regular script, she was indeed very powerful.

After finishing writing, Chu Luoci said very thoughtfully, "The Death Gu on the prince is very difficult. In order to prevent me from deceiving the prince, how about tomorrow the prince asks a trustworthy doctor to check my pulse with me?"

"By the way, I've been feeling unwell lately. I think it's after autumn, and the old disease in my body has a tendency to relapse. I specifically want to ask the prince for a good doctor to take my pulse. How about that?"

At least based on her pulse and physical condition, she wanted Yanque to believe that she was the real concubine of the general's palace.

Yanque had a thought in his mind.

Both of them are smart people. Did Chu Luoci know that he was testing her?

"Aren't you just good at medicine? Why don't you diagnose yourself?"

"Doctors don't heal themselves. Isn't it strange?" Chu Luoci replied calmly.

Yanque heard this and said: "Then if after the doctor's consultation and treatment, I have not been infected by the fatal poison, what should you do?"

"Impossible!" Chu Luoci objected.

Even if the doctor invited by Yanque is really knowledgeable about the poison, she can still make Yanque's pulse look like he has been infected by the fatal poison.

All he needs to do is find an excuse tonight and give him a few injections.

Therefore, Chu Luoci showed unprecedented indifference.

She was frightened by the banquet.

And according to his inspection, Chu Luoci didn't seem to be interested in anything in his study at all, except when he first entered the study and glanced at the Duobao Pavilion where the Nine Heavens Mysterious Needle was kept.

He couldn't help but doubt his guess. Could it be that this person was really a legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion, but her previous ladylike personality was rumored. Is her real personality so eccentric?

When the test failed, Yanque put down his pen and ink, looked at the sky, and said, "It's getting late, so let's rest."

Chu Luoci breathed a sigh of relief.

I can finally rest!

Just find a reason at night to change Yanque's veins and make it look like it's been planted with a deadly poison.

With this thought in mind, she started walking out, but she didn't take more than two steps when Yanque saw her turning towards the small room outside and suddenly stopped her, "What are you going to do?"

Chu Luoci turned around and replied: "Your Majesty, didn't you say it was getting late, so of course he had to go to rest."

Yanque frowned.

"Rest? Didn't I ask you to serve me personally? Since you have now taken the position of maid, you will naturally serve me to bathe and change clothes."
