"It's a shame."

As soon as the end of the note ended, the second half of the sentence fell shortly, only the bright eyes did not diminish, but the long eyelashes that hung down densely covered the faint coolness.

It doesn't matter if there is no evidence to reveal An Ruqin's true identity, as long as she already knows that it is a poisonous snake that stings in the shadows and can be fatal at any time.

Xia Xingshen smiled, slightly surprised in his light tone, "That's it?" ”

The girl squinted at him and asked unceremoniously, "How else?" ”

"By the way, it's a beautiful place, and I think it's just the right time to listen to the old memories lost in the pile of old papers." She was smiling, her eyes sparkling, but there was a hint of pity hidden in her eyes.

His past, the past he had always wanted her to hear, it was time for her to understand," what does the right minister think? ”

Xia Xingshen's eyes rolled, and he turned out a faint and obscure look, but nodded with a smile, "Not bad." ”

The girl muttered secretly, and I don't know if he agrees with the scenery she said, or agrees with telling her a story here.

"Do you know the Wang Xie family, which was extremely prosperous and enviable in the past?"

Mu Xiaofeng blinked and nodded slightly, "I know." "A few decades ago, the Hsieh family had already declined; And Wang's ...... As far as she knows, it should have declined in the past twenty or thirty years.

"The gradual decline of a family that has been glorious for hundreds of years will definitely not happen overnight."

The girl nodded again and echoed softly, "In the same way, the rise of a family from prosperity is not something that can be achieved in just one or two days. ”

Xia Xingshen hooked his lips, his posture was lazy, but his eyes were extremely sarcastic, "It's a pity that some people can't see reality clearly." I don't understand what it means to be a big tree, and I don't understand what it means to be prosperous and must decline. ”

Mu Xiaofeng was silent, the flourishing family has reached its peak and heyday, and it will naturally gradually decline or even die out in the future.

This is the inevitable development of things, and it cannot be reversed by man.

Moreover, because of the deep roots and the large number of children, no matter how strict the rules are, there will be times when the control is not enough.

There are more excellent children, and likewise, there are more children who are corrupt and unsuccessful.

A tree needs a lot of nutrients to grow from a sapling to a towering tree, and it also needs countless careful watering and care; However, it only takes a moment to destroy a towering tree.

Xia Xingshen closed his eyes, and the corners of his lips curled sarcastically, "It's a pity, there are many people, but many are stupid people." ”

"At that time, the former emperor thought that the family interfered too much in political affairs, and he had suppressed it several times, both openly and secretly." Xia Xing was silent, and Mu Xiaofeng was also silent, only sighing in his heart, since ancient times, the rights and interests of the family have been fighting for blood!

He smiled in a low voice, his eyes opened, and there was a slight pain hidden under the cold sneer in his eyes, "The old master of the Wang family is well versed in the truth that prosperity must decline, and he is also a very discerning character. In order to keep the ancestral inheritance and preserve the prosperity of future generations, under the suppression of the previous emperor, he wisely chose to give up part of his interests, and even more Taoguang and obscurity to preserve his strength. ”

Mu Xiaofeng's expression was clear. Presumably short-sighted, he is very dissatisfied with the way the old master of the Wang family does this.

"But the big family, behind the prosperity and glamour on the surface, there is naturally filth everywhere," Xia Xingshen sighed silently, but Qing Jun's face was as cold as if he was telling the story of someone else who had nothing to do with him.

Mu Xiaofeng glanced at him, and suddenly a shallow pain spread silently in his heart.

Regardless of whether he is burdened with family feuds or national hatreds, his life is not easy.

"He has been thinking hard for many years, and in the end, he can barely keep the foundation of the Wang family under the nose of the emperor." Speaking of this, a touch of cruelty suddenly flashed in his beautiful eyes, "I hate that the world is too greedy, and even this last effort will be ruined." ”

"The new head of the Wang family succeeded to the throne, and the side branches were dissatisfied with the head of the family's low-key and obscure approach, thinking that this fundamentally harmed the interests of the Wang family, so he secretly united all the departments to attack the head of the family."

Speaking of this, the faint lazy smile on the corner of Xia Xingshen's mouth remained unchanged, but Mu Xiaofeng saw that the beautiful eyes on his clear face had overflowed with shocking deep cruelty.

Her heart shook, and she involuntarily straightened up.

Because what she heard next was the secret of the Wang family, the secret of the Wang family with a strong smell of blood.

Before she began to get a glimpse of the truth, just looking at the man opposite, who had always been lazy and casual, had such a sad look in her eyes, it already made her heart as heavy as iron.

"Such a scandalous thing of mutilating the bloodline and usurping the sovereignty of the family will naturally not be openly presented to the eyes of the world."

Xia Xingshen's voice was faint but there was a deep hatred hidden in it, "They thought of a good way, which was to put a secret poison on the eldest son personally cultivated by the head of the family, forcing the head of the family to leave the mansion in order to find a cure for his beloved son, and ...... around." ”

His voice deepened, and his eyelids slowly lowered.

Mu Xiaofeng couldn't see the expression of his palm under his forehead, but he couldn't inadvertently see a faint flash of water from his tiny fingers.

The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place!

With a heavy sigh in her heart, she was silent, catching a glimpse of the already cold tea on the small table, and her heart moved.

After a while, she handed it to him with a teacup with a faint fragrance in both hands, "Well, Lord Youxiang has a face, drink it." ”

Her voice was already soft and beautiful, and at this moment she deliberately teased him to get rid of the heavy past, and deliberately exaggerated the tone of singing and hovering three times.

Xia Xingshen heard the tactful and beautiful but naughty and bright voice, and was stunned, raised his eyes to look, and saw the girl chanting and smiling and rolling up her sleeves to serve tea.

An almost natural reaction immediately popped into his mind: red sleeves add fragrance.

Although everything in front of him has nothing to do with Fengyue's affection for men and women, it is precisely because of its irrelevance that her pure and sincere care makes him feel even more throbbing.

He reached out and grabbed the teacup under her fingertips, and smiled. It seems ordinary, but the gloomy and cruel pain in the color of the eyebrows has quietly faded, and what is refreshing is a faint joy and a shallow and impenetrable depth.

"Miss Mu's sacrifice is great."

He raised his head, drank the tea in one gulp, smiled indifferently and lowered his eyes, and saw that the girl really looked at him with some resentment.

The lake is very good, and being able to fight with her and taste fragrant tea can be regarded as the most heartwarming pleasure in this world for decades.

"But the story, only the beginning and no end, how can it be a regrettable thing."

Pity!

Mu Xiaofeng sighed in his heart, those regrets haunted his heart, but he was afraid that it would turn into hatred!

"Actually, the ending later, I don't need to say it, you can guess it with your intelligence. It's nothing more than the heart of the head of the family, who loves his son, and is finally lost by repeated calculations, which is the whole family...... In the end, he also fell into the trap of death. ”

The girl's heart was shocked, and there was some pity in her eyes, and she understood the cruelty in his hidden depths.

"The head of the family and his wife, together with their two children, one is the eldest son who is seven or eight years old and raised as an heir, but he is already poisoned, and the other is the second son who is only five years old......."

Mu Xiaofeng bowed his head in silence, his mood complicated and heavy. Xia Xingshen quietly raised his head, and the corners of his eyes seemed to have a shiny glow.

"As a result, the eldest son, who was secretly poisoned in his body, survived unexpectedly, but his parents and younger brother were nowhere to be found, and there were only a few incomplete bones beside him that could not even be distinguished."

Xia Xingshen's voice was low and extremely magnetic, gently and slowly, stirring Mu Xiaofeng's heart, but it continued like flowing water, "Those who want to replace the head of the family, round after round of open and secret battles, you fight for me, and the power is constantly weakening and even gradually disappearing, but these people can't see anything in their eyes!" ”

"It wasn't until the new emperor ascended the throne that the infighting in the Wang family barely subsided, but at this time, the Wang family was already greatly injured, and it was completely different from the former family."

"Secret poison?"

Mu Xiaofeng's heart was shocked, she didn't care whether the Wang family was declining or rising, and she didn't care whether Xia Xingshen wanted revenge or seizure of power.

But the secret poison made her have to think of the things she had suspected before.

"Find out who did it and who got the poison?"

Xia Xingshen glanced up at her, his eyes were strange, "You should know that the current saint is not the original prince, right?" ”

Mu Xiaofeng nodded, "I know, but ...... this?" ”

Before he finished speaking, a possibility suddenly turned in his heart, and his pretty smile retreated, and his face turned white in an instant.

She covered her lips with her bare hands, "You mean, ...... is actually the mastermind behind the division and breaking that caused the collapse of the Wang family's vitality?" ”

Xia Xing was silent, "Although there is no direct evidence to prove it, it is undeniable that he must have been the one who knew about this matter." ”

He paused, his eyes hateful, "But there is other evidence that the person who proposed this poisonous plan in the first place is the one in Fengqi Palace." ”

Mu Xiaofeng clenched his fists, and a chill felt in his heart.

"In other words, she provided the secret poison?" The girl looked at him with wide eyes, and her tone was hurried, "Is there an antidote?" ”

Xia Xing glanced at her, did not nod or shake his head, only glanced at her, and lowered his eyes silently.

After a while, he diverted the topic, "Expanding the territory, hoarding gold and silver, and disintegrating the power of the Wang family, everything was what the emperor wanted to do but did not do." ”

Mu Xiaofeng was stunned, his hands and feet suddenly became cold, and his heart was already shocked beyond measure.

After a long time, she struggled to find her voice in a daze, "You mean to say that the woman used her strategy and wisdom to help him rise out of the crowd and finally sit in the big seat?" ”

Therefore, the queen's means must not be underestimated, and the power of the Li family must not be underestimated!

Xia Xingshen and Chu Lige are both victims of the current Chu Emperor's struggle for the throne, that is to say, what she speculated before was indeed correct, Xia Xingshen and Chu Lige actually had the same secret poison?

But where did this secret poison come from?

Queen?

With Xia Xingshen's forces and means now, he can't find an antidote, and Mu Xiaofeng'......s heart is sinking and sinking, so there is only one possibility.

One, the last thing she wants to see but has to face up
