Chapter 587: Gift-giving

"Xuanji, don't do anything stupid." Murong Xijie worriedly persuaded Murong Xuanji, sighed slightly and said, "Although the Nine Emperor Princes look unconscious when lying on the bed, I think he is still conscious, and he can hear what we say, so don't be discouraged so quickly, you have to encourage him in his ear often." ”

Murong Xijie's words seemed to give Murong Xuanji a little confidence, she took a deep breath, she was not as fragile as before, cheered up and said with a smile: "I know, I should be strong, you can rest assured, I won't admit defeat so easily." ”

Seeing that Murong Xuanji finally cheered up, Murong Xijie was also slightly relieved, walked out of the house with Murong Xuanji, and saw Leng Fengran in the garden, and the two nodded slightly to say hello.

"Second son, Xuanji." Leng Fengran walked towards the two of them, the moment he saw Murong Xijie just now, Leng Fengran was a little surprised, but he quickly calmed down and said, "Xuanji, I thought about it for a while, do you want to go to Chu Wanwan and ask." ”

"Although I suspect it's her, we don't have any evidence, and if we look for her, if she doesn't admit it, we will be shocked." Murong Xuanji thought a lot and said with some hesitation.

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, I really don't know what to do now!" Leng Fengran, who had always been calm, also became impatient.

"You went to the Western Qi Kingdom, didn't you find any news at all?" Murong Xijie asked Leng Fengran seriously.

"Yes, but it's all about marriage." Leng Fengran glanced at Murong Xuanji and said: "Whether it is the Northern Ming Kingdom or the Western Qi Kingdom, they are happy to see the marriage between Chu Wanwan and that Xuanyuan Mo come to fruition, and now the whole Western Qi Kingdom is talking about this marriage." ”

"If the two get married, then the power of the three princes will be much greater." Murong Xuanji said worriedly, "But during this time, the third prince has become too quiet, which makes people feel uneasy. ”

"His affairs will be handed over to us, you listen to me, don't worry about anything anymore, taking good care of the Nine Emperors in the mansion is the most important thing." Murong Xijie saw that Leng Fengran wanted to speak, so he immediately gave him a look, and then pretended to be casual and said, "I should go back too, my aunt and they are still waiting for me at home." ”

"Good!" Murong Xuanji nodded without much thought, wanting to send Murong Xi to the Distinguished Mansion.

"I'll send the second son." Leng Fengran said with a self-recommendation: "You go back and accompany the Nine Emperors, I will send the second prince away, and by the way, I will have a good chat with the third prince." ”

Murong Xuanji nodded and sent a few people away together.

"Does the second son have anything to say to me?" Immediately after the Nine Emperor Princes' Mansion, Leng Fengran opened his mouth and asked Murong Xijie.

"I went to see the Nine Emperor Princes just now, and I found that there was something strange about the poison in his body." Murong Xijie frowned and said: "When I was in prison before, my father once said that he was a little similar to such poisoning symptoms, and after I saw it just now, I also felt that I had seen such symptoms somewhere, but I couldn't remember it." ”

"Second brother, have you ever seen such poisoning?" Murong Xijun looked at Murong Xijie with some surprise, "Why did you and your father say they had seen it, but I didn't have any impression at all?" ”

Listening to Murong Xijun's somewhat childish words, Murong Xijie just glanced at him speechlessly, and continued to say to Leng Fengran: "Although the Nine Emperor Princes are now in a coma after being poisoned, and the whole person has lost a lot of weight, his breathing is stable, and his complexion is not like that of other poisoners, so I have been thinking about what the purpose of the poisoned person is. ”

"What does the third prince mean is that someone doesn't want the life of the Nine Emperor Princes?" Leng Fengran immediately heard the meaning of Murong Xijie's words, and his brows furrowed even tighter.

Murong Xijie nodded, "If those people really want the life of the Nine Emperor Princes, why don't they apply poison to the sword?" In this way, as long as they are hit by one eye, they can die immediately, why did those people just let the Nine Emperor Princes unconscious, but they did not have any risk of life? ”

"According to what you say, then I really can't think of who did it." Leng Fengran said with a blank face, "Before, Xuanji and I had suspected that it was Chu Wanwan, the princess of the Western Qi Kingdom, but as you said, if you want the life of the Nine Emperor Princes, just apply poison directly to the sword." ”

"If it weren't for Chu Wanwan, wouldn't it be—" Murong Xijun's mind suddenly thought of someone, but he quickly denied his thoughts, "No, it shouldn't be her." ”

"Who is it?" Seeing Murong Xijun talking to himself, Leng Fengran and Murong Xijie both asked in unison.

"I, I'm wondering if it's the eldest princess Qi Fangfei." Under the eager gaze of the two, Murong Xijun replied obediently.

"Why didn't I think about this woman?" Leng Fengran patted his forehead and said with a sudden realization.

"Isn't Qi Fangfei the daughter of Qi Yang and Prime Minister Qi? Why did she want to harm the Nine Emperor Princes. Murong Xijie looked at Murong Xijun and Leng Fengran with some puzzlement.

"As far as I know, that Qi Fangfei has always had a love for the Nine Emperor Princes before, and then married the Great Prince after being repeatedly rejected. This time the eldest prince had an accident, and she manipulated it single-handedly, this woman is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface. Leng Fengran said in a cold tone.

"It's that bastard woman again, I let her go last time in the paddock, if it's really her poison this time, I won't let go of this femme fatale." Murong Xijun said indignantly.

"Calm down, there's no evidence that she did it." Murong Xijie opened his mouth to appease Murong Xijun's anger, "Young Master Leng, about Qi Fangfei's woman, please send someone to secretly investigate, it is inconvenient for Xijun and I to do this now." ”

"I understand, in fact, I have already sent someone to spy on her, but that woman is too cunning, and she has hardly been out of the palace since she returned to the Great Prince's Mansion a few days ago, so she still hasn't found anything." Leng Fengran said with some indignation.

"It's the fox that always shows its tail." Murong Xijie sneered, looked at the fork in the road ahead and said, "Then Xijun and I will go back first, and the rest will trouble you." ”

"The second son is polite, farewell." Leng Fengran clenched his fists and said goodbye to Murong Xijie.

After Murong Xijie left, Murong Xuanji thought about it, found a few things from the treasury in the mansion, and then called Baoqing.

"Baoqing, you send these things to the Eighth Prince's Mansion." Murong Xuanji pointed to a few boxes and said.

Baoqing glanced at Murong Xuanji puzzled, then opened the box and took a look, there were rare treasures inside, each of which was priceless. Baoqing put down the box and said a little excitedly: "Miss, these things are all dowries from Murong Mansion when you got married, and some are gifts from your master, how can you give them to others?" ”

"These are all external objects, even if they are placed in the house, they are just ashes." Murong Xuanji explained calmly, "Although the Eighth Prince and his husband are brothers and sisters, and the relationship is very good, there are many people who are icing on the cake, and there are very few people who send charcoal in the snow. This time, whether it was the Nine Emperors' Mansion or the Murong Mansion, the Eight Emperors did their best to help, and compared to his heart, my gift was nothing at all. ”

"But-" Baoqing looked at Murong Xuanji with some embarrassment, on the one hand, he was reluctant to give her precious gifts to others, but seeing her unquestioning expression, Baoqing knew that he couldn't persuade her.

"Send it, thank him for me." Murong Xuanji didn't say anything more, turned around and came out of the warehouse.

Baoqing carefully closed the boxes, still hesitating in her heart, but she had never violated Murong Xuanji's consciousness, no matter how contradictory she was in her heart this time, in the end she still took those gifts to the Eighth Prince's Mansion.

"Who do you say is coming? Is it the Baoqing girl from the Nine Emperors' Mansion? Xuanyuan Jue, who was working in the study, heard the communication of the people in the house, stood up from the chair in surprise, and couldn't wait for the answer of the people, so he hurriedly walked out, and sure enough, he saw Baoqing waiting in the hall of the house.

"The Eighth Prince is auspicious!" Hearing the footsteps behind him, Baoqing looked back and saw Xuanyuan Jue walking outside the door of the hall, and immediately said goodbye.

"Miss Baoqing doesn't have to be polite." Xuanyuan Jue wanted to reach out to help Baoqing, but felt that her movements would scare her abruptly, so she embarrassedly withdrew her slightly outstretched hand and smiled to let her get up.

"Eighth prince, it's okay if you call me Baoqing, that girl makes the slave dare not be." Baoqing said a little detached.

"Okay, Baoqing!" Xuanyuan Jue shouted with a smile, and asked with some curiosity, "Why did you come to me today?" You're okay with your leg injury, right? After I returned to Beijing, I had something to do, so I didn't even go to see you. ”
