Ruan Xiaonuan taunted her in her eyes due to her previous foolishness. Seeing her innocent expression, she said to Chu Ying.

"Do you think it's necessary for me to kill a trivial person like you?"

When she said these words, she didn't seem like a small eunuch at all. It seemed like she was even more so the Ling Yue Kingdom's monarch, Shen Yuerong. Everyone was shocked by her sudden change and their mouths gaped wide open.

Chu Ying didn't think that the ball would return to her hands. She didn't know what to do next, so she just stood there, stunned. When she realized what was happening, she turned around and looked at the crowd.

"Sorry, I just thought of something." Then, he met Ruan Xiaonuan's eyes, and calmly said:

"Why is it not necessary? You are just a powerless Young Eunuch in this palace. If you receive benefits from others, you might do something. "

However, she believed that she had never done anything before. No matter how much Chu Ying turned black and white, the others would not be like her.

She stood in the middle of the group, her eyes not showing any signs of fear.

"Miss Chu Ying, I don't know why you were poisoned, but when there is no evidence, why did you frame me like this? I really want to know why?"

She looked as though she was truly curious, and her eyes were full of interest as she looked at Chu Ying.

This farce had been going on for a long time, and Gu Junxiu heard the two of them talking to each other with a headache. A cold intent appeared in his eyes, and he raised his voice.

"Stop arguing." His words were very useful, so Chu Ying immediately did not dare to speak up. Ruan Xiaonuan was actually a little afraid in her heart. She tried her best to calm her voice down as she spoke to him.

"Your Highness, what I have not done, no matter what you say, I will not admit it."

Gu Junxiu saw her stubbornness, and suddenly felt that she was a little unsightly, and said coldly.

"On that day, you were the only one who came in contact with Chu Ying.

Ruan Xiaonuan couldn't see his expression at the moment, but she could hear the coldness in her tone. Even so, she was not afraid. She stared into his narrow phoenix eyes and said,

"What proof do you have that I did it?" Chu Ying glanced at Fu Dian, and before long, she brought over a bowl of lotus seed porridge. He said naturally,

"This is the bowl of porridge the lady drank yesterday. Your Highness, can the imperial physician take a look?"

Gu Junxiu nodded in agreement. After the imperial physician examined him carefully, he kneeled in front of and said.

"The poison in the lotus seed porridge is exactly the same as the poison in Miss Chu." This imperial physician was the one who treated Chu Ying that day, so she knew about the matter. Once the Imperial Physician said this, Ruan Xiaonuan had no chance to refute him. She looked at the crowd and said in disbelief,

"I never touched it. I didn't even know it was poisonous." The others didn't believe her at all, especially Fu Jiao. She didn't care that she was a palace maid and shouted loudly.

"If it wasn't for you, would there be other people? Furthermore, how would we know if you have touched it or not? Just based on your words alone, who would believe you? "

"Then how do you know I must have touched it?" Ruan Xiaonuan sarcastically replied. Seeing that there was going to be another argument, Gu Junxiu was lucky that he opened his mouth and spoke.

"Men, put Little Ruan into the cell and await his orders."

Immediately, a few people came in and pressed down Ruan Xiaonuan. However, she suddenly had a lot of strength, and the two of them could not pull her away at all. She hatefully stared at Gu Junxiu and said.

"Do you really want to believe this woman?"

Gu Junxiu closed his eyes and waved for them to take her away. When Chu Ying saw the miserable state she was in, her eyes revealed a proud smile. It worked, she thought.

As Ruan Xiaonuan hid in the damp cell, she would occasionally hear the sound of a mouse. She was so scared that she shrunk into a ball and didn't dare to move at all.

The next day, she felt a dazzling light from the skylight and subconsciously blocked it with her hand. At this moment, she suddenly heard a rumbling sound coming from her stomach. She touched her shriveled stomach. Since last night, she had not been able to drink any water and was already feeling dizzy.

This man from ancient times was really unreliable. A moment ago, he wanted her to go back, but it wasn't long before he brought her here. She viciously threw a straw at him, as if that would reduce her anger a little.

"Ai, this is your food." There was finally someone outside. When she looked over, she saw several grains of rice floating in the air. As for the other side dishes, there was no sign of them.

"What is this?" She pointed at the porridge on the ground and asked in dissatisfaction. The guard said impatiently.

"This is all the food you have today. Do you want to eat or not?"

After saying that, she left arrogantly. Ruan Xiaonuan picked up the bowl of congee, and was stunned for a long time without the intention to drink it.

"What is it? You can't drink anymore? "

Chu Ying's voice suddenly came from outside the cell, she saw the dirty cell, covered her mouth, and took a few steps back in disdain.

"If you can live in such a dirty place, then what about this bowl of porridge?"

Just as she was not paying attention, Fu Xian suddenly rushed over and directly grabbed her, holding up the porridge on the ground and poured it into Ruan Xiaonuan's mouth.

She struggled with all her might, but she couldn't break free due to the small size of her body. Her actions were very crude, and a lot of the congee was poured into her clothes. The dirty clothes looked even dirtier. After she broke free, she stood there and coldly asked,

"Chu Ying, what in the world have I let you down? You can make such a deliberate move against me? "

This had always been a strange thing to her. The two of them had clearly been on good terms before. Seeing that she had not realized it at all, Chu Ying hesitated for a while, but still decided to tell her in the end.

"Do you really think His Highness would like someone like you?" He just wants to be fresh for a while, and after this freshness passes, he will give up on you like a pair of little shoes. "

Ruan Xiaonuan finally knew what was going on as she said in a strange tone.

"How do you know that?" The way she asked this was exactly the same as Gu Junxiu.

When Chu Ying heard these words, the hatred in her heart started to rise. She raised her hand and directly slapped her. A red mark immediately appeared on Ruan Xiaonuan's face.

She had used a lot of strength this time, but Ruan Xiaonuan wasn't prepared for it, and a line of blood appeared at the corner of her mouth.
