Chapter 1538

However, Irene did not show this emotion, but always hid everything with a quiet smile.

She hid all her emotions under the paintbrush, copying strokes to her beloved daughter.

A court lady came over at this time and put a cup of steaming coffee on the corner of the table not far from Irene, "Princess, your favorite coffee."

"Yeah." Irene nodded slightly, and continued to concentrate on painting.

She doesn't have any other hobbies. Her favorites are painting and drinking coffee. There is a craftsman in the palace who specially develops coffee for her. For more than 20 years, she has been grinding the most mellow coffee for her regardless of the weather.

After the last line was drawn, Irene looked at the vivid portrait on the drawing board with satisfaction, and smiled very quietly, "Not bad."

"Already painted?" Rong Bao'er was the first model for a portrait, so she stood up and looked at it.

I saw that the portrait on the drawing board was lively and sweet, and there was nothing like her in her manner or manner.

"Wow, it's really beautiful. I'm talking about the portrait, it's so beautiful." Rong Baoer sincerely praised it.

Irene smiled calmly, picked up the maid's coffee on the table, and handed Rong Bao'er a cup, "This is my favorite hand-ground coffee, you should try it too."

"Okay." Rong Bao'er took the coffee, took a deep breath, and instantly filled the nasal cavity with the unique aroma of coffee, "It smells so good!"

"Of course, that's why I'm addicted. I've been drinking for more than twenty years." Irene lowered her head and took a sip gracefully.

Rong Bao'er took half a sip of the drink, but she couldn't behave as elegantly as Irene, but her mouth was filled with the silky smoothness and aroma of coffee.

At this moment, Erin's hand holding the coffee was fixed in the air, "No, why does this coffee taste different from before?"

Rong Bao'er looked at the coffee in his hand suspiciously, and didn't feel any difference from the ones he drank before.

The only difference is that this cup of coffee is too thick and mellow, killing everything she has ever drank before.

"Don't drink it yet, put it here." Irene put the coffee cup on the table, and ordered the maid standing aside with a straight face, "Go and call the artisan who grinds the coffee for me. I have something to ask him."

"Yes." The maid answered and walked out of Irene's bedroom.

Rong Bao'er put down the coffee and asked softly, "Is there something wrong?"

"The taste is wrong. Although I have been insane for more than 20 years, I have never stopped coffee. I am too familiar with its unique taste. Today's cup is very strange." Irene said, waving to another court lady Said, "Go and invite the medical officer over."

The maid followed and left, "Yes."

Standing where she was, Rong Bao'er suddenly felt that the temperature in the spacious bedroom, which was still cozy just now, had suddenly cooled down.

Could it be that this cup of coffee was drugged?

This thought shocked Rong Bao'er, she couldn't imagine that anyone would dare to attack the princess.

Aileen saw the uneasiness on Rong Baoer's face, and gently held her hand, "Don't be afraid, everything is with the concubine mother."

Soon, the two maids brought over the craftsman who grinds the coffee and the medical officer.

Irene sat on the sofa and ordered the medical officer who came in, "Look at this cup of coffee, is there any problem?"

"Yes." The medical officer quickly picked up the coffee on the table and checked it carefully.

He poured the coffee into the silver utensil he brought, then lightly tasted a little, and sipped it carefully, "Princess, there is nothing wrong with the coffee."

Surprise flashed in Irene's eyes, and she looked at the craftsman kneeling on the ground, "I remember that you were not the one who helped me make coffee before."

Although Eileen has been insane for more than 20 years, she still has memories before she became insane. The person who made coffee for her back then was definitely not the person in front of her eyes!

The craftsman was trembling with fright, "Princess, I just arrived yesterday, and I have been doing my best. I don't know what happened!"

Irene frowned slightly, "Where was the craftsman from before?"

"I don't know, princess, I heard... I heard that he was drunk, fell into the river and drowned."

The craftsman who made the coffee was already scared out of his wits, and he was still lying on the ground shaking.

It seemed that there was nothing to ask, and Irene waved to the two of them, "It's none of your business here, let's all go down."

"Yes." The medical officer bowed to Irene in salute, then turned and left.

The craftsman was still lying on the ground, not daring to get up.

Irene looked at the craftsman who was still kneeling on the ground suspiciously, "You can go, why don't you get up?"

"Princess, I don't dare. Is there something wrong with the coffee I made? You must tell me." The new craftsman said with trepidation, suddenly jumped up from the ground, and walked towards the nearest Rong Baoer rushed forward.

Everything happened in a blink of an eye, Rong Baoer only had time to see a blinding white light flash, and then heard a muffled groan, "Hmm."

I saw that Aileen used her body to block Rong Bao'er before everyone could react.

And the white light that Rong Bao'er saw was the sharp knife held by the new craftsman, which was stabbing Wang Hao's back at this moment!

"Mommy!"

Rong Bao'er was terrified by the scene in front of her, and "Mommy", who had been unable to say it all the time, blurted out at this moment.

She quickly supported Erin's precarious figure, tears had already blurred her vision, and shook her head with sobs, "Mum, what's wrong with you? How can you block the knife for me?"

"Because you are my daughter." Irene turned pale from the pain, but still showed the warmest smile, "Which mother in this world doesn't love her child?"

Although Erin was stabbed in the back, she was very happy.

Because she really heard Rong Bao'er calling her "Mommy" just now, although it's not the "Mother and Concubine" called in the royal family, but Irene prefers the intimate title of "Mommy".

Rong Bao'er looked at Irene's back with tears in her eyes. There was a knife handle stabbed there, and the blade had completely disappeared into Irene's back.

The bright red blood was shocking, and was slowly dripping down the handle of the knife.

The whole palace was thrown into chaos by this sudden scene, and some court ladies immediately ran out to find King Jinli.

The craftsman who stabbed Princess Irene was pinned to the ground by the guards who had already reacted, and stomped on his face with his feet, "Be honest, don't move!"

The craftsman didn't struggle at all, and fell to the ground like mud, already dead.

It turned out that he knew that no matter what the consequences of his stabbing would be, he would die, so he directly bit the poison hidden in his teeth.

When King Jinli arrived, he saw that Rong Baoer was sitting on the sofa with the pale-faced Irene, and Irene was still poking the handle of the dazzling dagger behind her back.

This scene made Jinli's face change immediately, he felt as if his heart was being held by an unknown big hand, and the pain was so painful that he could hardly breathe.

"Irene, what's the matter with you, Aileen?!" Jinli ran over, but he didn't dare to hold Aileen in his arms, for fear that it would aggravate her injury.
