Seeing a calm and confident smile on Hua Ruotong's face, Lang Lang said: "Listening to what the third concubine said is true, it's like seeing it with my own eyes. Could it be that you happen to be in Yichun Tower?"

Hearing this, the proud expression on Hua Ruoyi's face froze, and she quickly argued: "How is it possible, why would I go to that kind of place..."

"In that case, how did the third imperial concubine know about it?" Hua Ruotong interrupted her defense and pressed her step by step.

"This, of course, is what I heard." Hua Ruoyi said hastily, looking at the emperor and queen from time to time, for fear that they would misunderstand her.

"Oh, I heard..." Hua Ruotong said pretending to be contemplative, smiled to herself, then got up, and respectfully said to the emperor: "Your Majesty and Empress, since this is the case, I have nothing to say, but I think Whether I and the Seventh Prince are at odds or love each other, that's up to you to decide."

After speaking, Hua Ruotong sat down again.

Ouyang Jun held the teacup in his hand, but his eyes never left Hua Ruotong. From the beginning to the end, she neither admitted nor denied Hua Ruoyi's slander.

However, her generous words were the most powerful counterattack.

This woman is completely different from the one in the legend, Ouyang Jun thought to himself.

Sure enough, after listening to Hua Ruotong's few questions, the emperor immediately cleared his throat and said, "Since it's just slander on the street, why should you take it seriously? Rumors are untrustworthy. You know what I hate the most is groundless rumors. As a royal family, You must pay attention to your own words and deeds, and if there is no basis, you must not say it!"

Hearing this, the third prince hurriedly pulled Hua Ruoyi up and kowtowed, expressing that he would keep the emperor's words in his heart.

Seeing Hua Ruotong turn the situation around with just a few words, Ouyang Jun couldn't help but praise in his heart.

Hua Ruotong knew that her good sister would definitely hate herself because of this, so she didn't care, anyway, Hua Ruoyi hated her, and this time would not be missing.

Fortunately, she spends most of her time in the Prince's Mansion tinkering with her poison, but when it was time to return home, she knew that Hua Ruoyi would not miss this opportunity to find fault with her.

However, she wasn't afraid at all. If Hua Ruoyi didn't come to provoke her, she would feel that there was no fun in life.

On the day of returning home, when Hua Ruotong and Ouyang Jun arrived at the Hou Mansion, Hua Ruoyi and Ouyang Ming had already arrived.

I saw a few big boxes in the front hall. After seeing Hua Ruotong coming in, Hua Ruoyi hurriedly got up, ordered someone to open the boxes one by one, and said to Lord Hou and Hua Rong: "Father, mother, these , it was the third prince who asked me to bring them to honor your elders."

With that said, Hua Ruoyi glanced at Hua Ruotong contemptuously.

It turns out that they are here to show off their wealth, Hua Ruotong thought, it's really vulgar.

However, she didn't show it on her face, she just walked up to those big boxes, touched them one by one, and couldn't help saying, "Well, they are really good things."

Hearing this, Hua Ruoyi became more and more proud: "Hmph, I knew you hadn't seen it before." As she said that, Hua Ruoyi randomly picked out a bracelet from the inside, and gave it to a little maid serving tea in the front hall as a reward. This shows how rich you are.

The little maid was naturally ecstatic, and immediately put it on her left wrist, but, within a short time of a cup of tea, the little maid suddenly cried out in panic.

It turned out that the wrist where she was wearing the bracelet began to turn black, and slowly developed a tingling sensation, which was a sign of poisoning.

The little maid yelled and hurriedly took off the bracelet and threw it far away. Hua Ruotong wrapped her wrist with a handkerchief, and the little maid ran out to find the doctor in fear.

Hua Ruotong knew that when she ran to the pharmacy, the swelling and pain on her hands would disappear, but, looking at the astonished Hua Ruoyi, she smiled and said, "Second sister, these things of yours are really only It can be viewed from a distance, but not to be played with, but is jewelry that cannot be worn still called jewelry?"

Soon, it spread throughout the manor that the treasures brought back by the Second Miss were all poisonous and should not be touched.

Hua Ruotong smiled and left the front hall, leaving behind Hua Ruoyi and others who were full of anger but had nowhere to vent.

Ouyang Jun followed closely, walking side by side with Hua Ruotong, and asked inadvertently, "Did you plan that out just now?"

"Hee hee, the secret must not be leaked." Hua Ruotong was in a great mood, so she just made a cute face and unexpectedly did not quarrel with Ouyang Jun.

After dinner, everyone was watching a play in the garden. Hua Ruotong felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, so she went back to her room to rest, while Lord Hou played chess with Ouyang Jun in the gazebo.

Sitting beside Hua Ruoyi, Ouyang Ming felt that she seemed a little absent-minded.

About half an hour later, Hua Ruoyi suddenly stood up and said to Ouyang Ming: "Your Highness, my sister is not feeling well. We are all enjoying ourselves in the garden. I think she must be deserted and flustered. Why don't we go and see her."

After getting Ouyang Ming's consent, the group walked towards Hua Ruotong's room.

However, from a distance, Hua Ruotong's silver bell-like laughter came from the room, and at the same time, there was a man's voice vaguely.

"Ah, I remember that the Seventh Prince was still playing chess with his father in the pavilion. It's so late, how could there be a man in my sister's room?" Hua Ruoyi had a shocked expression on her face, but secretly delighted in her heart.
