A moment later, the young official’s eyes lit up, and he said,” Sir Ping, I’ve thought of something.”
Then, a few people looked at him and asked curiously,” Lord Yin, what is it?”
Lord Yin said,” Lord Ping, do you remember the sweet and sour thing we drank in the Longyan Kingdom’s palace?”
“Of course!” Lord Ping said,” But we don’t know what that is.”
Lord Yin shook his head and continued,” No, Lord, I asked the eunuch about that thing. He said that it was just fruit juice.”
“What? Is that fruit juice?”Everyone, including Lord Ping, asked in surprise.
“So, what do you want to say?” The others asked.
Lord Yin said,” Since the Princess doesn’t dare to eat anything, why don’t we make some watery things like the ones at the Palace for the Princess to drink? How about that? Solids could choke people, but liquid couldn’t choke people!’
When Lord Yin said this, everyone seemed to have come to a realization. They said with some excitement,” That’s right! Although those things can’t fill one’s stomach like rice, they can at least make sure that the prince doesn’t starve...” He didn’t dare to say the words ‘starve to death’.
Lord Ping turned around and immediately instructed the princess! servant girl,” Get someone to filter out the rice in the porridge. Then, bring the filtered porridge soup to the princess.”
However, when the servant girl thought of the princess who was on the verge of a mental breakdown just now, she immediately said in fear,” Sir, the princess...” Then, she knelt down and said,” Your Excellency, this servant doesn’t dare! Please, Lord Ping, save this servant!”
They had heard everything that happened to the servant girl in the princess room.
Lord Ping sighed and said,” Forget it. I’ll get the imperial physician to go!’ He turned his head and said to the imperial physician,”lmperial Physician Sun, I’m sorry to trouble you!’
The princess could deal with a girl as she wished, but the imperial physician was different.
When the imperial physician brought a bowl of porridge and soup to Xiao Jingyu’s room, Xiao Jingyu was like a frightened bird.” What are you doing here?” When she saw Imperial Physician Sun holding a bowl of white food in his hand, she instantly exploded. She said sternly,” You’re here to harm me too, aren’t you? I knew it. All of you want to kill this princess. However, this princess is telling you, I won’t die, I won’t die!”
Imperial Physician Sun saw Xiao Jingyu’s somewhat crazy state and frowned. He then said to Xiao Jingyu,” Princess, you haven’t eaten anything for two days. Why don’t you drink some porridge?”
Xiao Jingyu was like a frightened bird. She shook her head and said,” No, no, I don’t want to eat anything!’
Imperial Physician Sun advised,” Princess, if this continues, you won’t be able to take it! Even if you don’t...” Even if you don’t choke to death, you’ll starve to death!
However, he didn’t dare to say it out loud. Otherwise, what would happen if the princess suffered an even greater shock?
Imperial Physician Sun continued to persuade the princess. “The thing in this bowl is soup and water. It will never choke people. Why don’t we give it a try?”
Xiao Jingyu looked suspiciously at the things in Imperial Physician Sun’s bowl and said suspiciously,” Is this bowl really soup without any impurities?”
In fact, she knew very well that if this continued, even if she did not choke to death, she would starve to death. After all, she was a human, not a god.
Humans should eat!
She was afraid of death, so she had to eat!
Imperial Physician Sun nodded his head.” There is nothing else in this soup. Princess, please rest assured!”
Losing a stunning princess and gaining nothing was simply a tragedy. It could not be implemented at all.
Xiao Jingrui looked at the kneeling officials, slightly frowned and said,” In that case, I will go to the palace to break off the engagement now! ”
Before this, he had never believed in jinx.
Therefore, he had always wanted Xiao Jingyu to marry Jiang Zhennan as his wife. His goal was naturally to separate Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan and then to create a rift between them.
However, he did not expect that before Xiao Jingyu married into the General’s Estate, she almost choked to death.
Xiao Jingyu was a very good chess piece. If she died before she could play any role, it would really be a big loss.
Xiao Jingrui entered the palace and talked to Yuwen Longyan about breaking off the engagement, but he did not explain much.
Yuwen Longyan was very surprised, but since he came to break off the engagement, he accepted. It was exactly what he wanted.
However, since the other party had taken the initiative to break off the engagement, they had to pay accordingly.
In the end, Xiao Jingrui took out 100,000 silver coins, 100 pieces of high-quality silk cloth, and three pieces of high-quality white jade to successfully break off the engagement.
In the posthouse, all the officials and Xiao Jingyu were waiting for the news. When they received the news that the engagement had been successfully annulled, Xiao Jingyu was so happy that she cried.
However, when Xiao Jingrui came back, Xiao Jingyu carefully drank the white soup from Imperial Physician Sun’s hands. After drinking the whole bowl, she was still fine.
“I’m really fine!”
Everyone was shocked!
This was really too strange, too evil!
Xiao Jingyu was stunned at first, but then she said in a daze,” It’s okay. It’s really okay.”
She was so agitated that the bowl in her hand fell to the ground.
“Ding!” The sound of a bowl shattering.
“I’m really fine!” Xiao Jingyu stood up from her seat excitedly and danced with
However, when she stood up, she fell down, perhaps because she was too excited.
“Princess!”
Everyone shouted in horror.
When the guard saved her, he saw Xiao Jingyu’s face covered in blood, and she was unconscious.
However, someone soon realized that something was wrong because she was not breathing.
“Imperial Physician Sun, quick, take the princess’ pulse!”
Imperial Physician Sun immediately checked her pulse, and after a moment, he shook his head and said to Xiao Jingrui, “Your Highness, the princess, the princess is dead!” Everyone was shocked.
“Did she fall to her death?”
