Chapter 18: Ruan Chen's Poisoning [Second Update]

The restaurant in front of him is not another one, but the one that Lu Zhiyao came to a few days ago and was robbed of the chef by the Eighth Prince.

"Huh? Is it? Qu Wan'er's tone was surprised, but the expression on her face was another matter. But don't worry, Young Master Chu, you can eat with peace of mind, and you won't be allowed to pay for money. ”

Although Qu Wan'er's words said so, how could Chu Ziqian take so many people to his restaurant to eat, and let a woman settle the bill with silver in front of everyone? Feeling that he was completely put on the table, Chu Ziqian glanced at Qu Wan'er and asked, "How do you know that Lu Dao is here?" ”

"It was the Eighth Imperial Concubine who recommended me here, and she said that the chefs here are very good."

Is it really Lu Zhiyao's ghost......

Chu Ziqian sighed slowly and said, "The good cook has already arrived at her house, so it is better to go to the Eight Emperors Mansion to eat." ”

"The Eighth Imperial Concubine also said, let me help her try the skills of the new chef here." Qu Wan'er looked at Chu Ziqian's interesting expression calmly, and pretended not to know anything when the other party looked over.

"I didn't know that the relationship between the two of you was already so good." Chu Ziqian walked towards the restaurant, leaving such a sentence when he passed by Qu Wan'er.

"Who said I had a good relationship with her? It's just my payment for helping her today. ”

Chu Ziqian strode away, and he didn't care so much about Qu Wan'er's words. After taking a few people in, he went straight to the second floor, and after eating and drinking, Chu Ziqian stopped Qu Wan'er from wanting to pay the bill, and left the restaurant again.

"Is that really good?" Qu Wan'er walked beside Chu Ziqian and tilted her head and asked. picked up the money bag hanging on her waist and shook it in front of Chu Ziqian's eyes, Qu Wan'er said casually: "The Eighth Imperial Concubine gave me the silver and said that I would treat you to a good meal." ”

"Why didn't you say it earlier?!" If Lu Zhiyao paid for it, Chu Ziqian would never have done the kind of stupid thing just now.

"Didn't I say that this is my payment for helping her today? You didn't pay attention to what I said, who is to blame? ”

Chu Ziqian was played by Lu Zhiyao and Qu Wan'er again, and Li Muchen and the others couldn't help but sigh in their hearts when they saw this.

is not the same as the way Chu Ziqian and the others get along, and at this time, Prince Luo's Mansion is already shrouded in dark clouds.

From the moment Liu Yiyu was sent away, Nangong Nuo'er kicked Lin Yixiang out of the room and stayed in the house alone. Lin Yichen asked Lin Yixiang a few words briefly, and when he heard Lin Yixiang tell the truth of the matter, he was a little puzzled.

If it is really as Lin Yixiang said, he was knocked unconscious at home and then that scene happened. So who sent the other party? Why did you choose to send Liu Yiyu to Lin Yixiang's bed?

"How many people know about you and Liu Yiyu?" Lin Yichen asked in a low voice, and after hearing Lin Yixiang's answer that there were not many people, he was silent for a while, and then left Prince Luo's mansion and went back to the palace.

Lin Yixiang sent Lin Yichen away and returned to his room with a headache. It didn't make much sense to know whether he knocked on the door or not, he simply pushed the door and walked in, but what was greeted was Nangong Nuo'er's fierce attack.

Lin Yixiang didn't plan to be slapped by her for a second time, and Lin Yichen didn't leave here, so he let go of his hands and feet, and asked after suppressing Nangong Nuo'er: "How long do you want to make trouble?!" ”

"Am I making trouble? Lin Yixiang, how can you have the face to say this! ”

Nangong Nuo'er was beaten upside down, and looked at Lin Yixiang with great grievances, but was dragged by Lin Yixiang to the back room. The whole body fell heavily on the bed, and just when Nangong Nuo'er was stunned, Lin Yixiang hurriedly seized the opportunity and said what Nangong Nuo'er had been refusing to listen to.

Nangong Nuo'er listened to Lin Yixiang's words and sneered.

"How dare you say that you have nothing to do with that woman?" Nangong Nuo'er didn't forget the woman's frightened expression when she said that she was going to find someone to check Liu Yiyu's body.

"I do have a relationship with her, but that was before Xia Yao's death. The relationship between Liu Yiyu and Xia Yao has always been very good, and in order to get close to Xia Yao and find out more about the Xia family, this is also a last resort! ”

"Huh." Nangong Nuo'er sneered, stood up from the bed, looked at Lin Yixiang with four eyes, and said sarcastically: "I don't know what to do, it turns out that Xia Yao is so difficult to deal with that she wants you to please her friend." Lin Yixiang, did I look down on you before? No matter what kind of women you can take advantage of, you don't mind if they climb into your bed? What about me? What am I in your heart? ”

Lin Yixiang frankly admitted his relationship with Liu Yiyu, which did not make Nangong Nuo'er feel better.

"Don't you know if Xia Yao is good or not? She's dead now, that's why I said everything today was just a misunderstanding. If I really have anything else with that Liu Yiyu, do you think I'll be stupid enough to bring her home? How much of your eyeliner is in this palace, do you think I don't know? ”

Nangong Nuo'er was uncomfortable, and Lin Yixiang's temper was always irritable. Few people should know about him and Liu Yiyu, who will do today's thing? This is the biggest headache for Lin Yixiang right now. If he didn't find out the other party, Lin Yixiang felt that the other party was very likely to use Liu Yiyu to do something. In fact, even if Liu Yiyu is married back now, it is possible, but looking at the current Nangong Nuo'er, this matter may not be possible. The people of the Qing Netherworld want to investigate the affairs of the Xia family all the time, and Lin Yixiang also hopes to use Liu Yiyu to figure it out, so now he can't let Nangong Nuo'er attack Liu Yiyu. Fortunately, Lin Yichen was present and suppressed today's matter, otherwise he thought, I really don't know how far Nangong Nuo'er will go.

"So you're blaming me for installing too many people from the Nangong family in this mansion?" Nangong Nuo'er took a deep breath and said self-deprecatingly: "I really can't understand myself now, what was it for robbing you so desperately with Xia Yao in the first place?" It's not just me, it seems that Xia Yao is also blind, so she will be deceived by you. Come to think of it, I really feel a little sympathy for her. Anyway, she is also the first beauty, but she was deceived by people like you, and after the most ruinous turn, she also ruined her family. But I'm not much better, it's just Lin Yixiang, the Nangong family will definitely not be like the Xia family, please remember this. ”

Lin Yixiang watched Nangong Nuo'er walk past him and then walked out of the room, not bothering to chase after him. Exhausted and collapsed on the bed, usually thinking that a short day, today is such a long time......

The wrongness of the two masters made every slave feel it personally, Lu Zhiqing watched Liu Yiyu leave the palace with his own eyes, and he couldn't say whether his mood was good or bad, but he didn't expect that there would be a good show here.

Lin Yichen had a busy day, and witnessed a farce in Prince Luo's mansion. I wanted to rest after returning to the palace, but Luo Yunzheng was already waiting here and told him about Ruan Chen.

Lin Yichen listened to Luo Yunzheng's report on Ruan Chen's actions in the past two days, and knew that the poison had already taken effect. There was finally something that could make him a little happy, and Lin Yichen lay down on the bed tired after talking to Luo Yunzheng.

Ruan Chen has been a physician for many years, whether it is for the emperor or for other concubines and princesses, he has cured diseases and detoxified, and after becoming the emperor's confidant, he has studied various poisons according to the emperor's will, so that they can come in handy in the future.

After several days of physical discomfort, Ruan Chen gradually realized that something was wrong, and after realizing that he had been poisoned, Ruan Chen did not panic immediately. The daily meals are eaten at home, and if they are really poisoned, they must be made by the people in the family. The meal had to pass through the lady's hand before it could reach him, and she had to eat with him what he ate.

Ruan Chen found Tong Li, and it didn't take long to determine that she was also poisoned like himself.

Thinking of the fact that his cook was knocked unconscious that day, Ruan Chen hurriedly set out to detoxify himself and his wife. But after working hard, he realized that he was really a little overconfident.

His body is getting worse day by day, and Ruan Chen's face is also getting worse day by day. He had used all the medicines that he could use, and seeing that his wife was about to be unable to support it, Ruan Chen thought about entering the palace to report the matter to the emperor.

Ruan Chen didn't think about asking for help from the other imperial doctors in the Imperial Physician Palace, because he knew very well how everyone in the Imperial Physician Hall had medical skills. If he can't cure this poison, then others must have nothing to do.

Out of the mansion gate, Ruan Chen sat in a sedan chair and entered the palace overnight. But he was stopped halfway through.

Ruan Chen was forced to get out of the sedan chair, it was already dark, and the other party was dressed in night clothes, with a mask on his face, so he couldn't see his face clearly.

Ruan Chen looked at the knife around his neck, glanced at the corpses on the ground that had lost their lives in the blink of an eye, and asked cautiously, "Who are you?" What do you want to do? ”

Hearing the trembling in Ruan Chen's words, the man smiled softly. "I don't want to do anything, I just want to warn Imperial Doctor Ruan, it seems a little inappropriate to enter the palace to see the emperor at this time, right?"

Ruan Chen's body stiffened, and he reflexively asked, "Did you poison me?!" ”

"Imperial Doctor Ruan was actually poisoned? It's a strange thing. The man withdrew the short knife, stared at Ruan Chen's eyes, and said: "But it's better for you not to let the emperor know about this matter, at least you can save your life now, if you really say it, I don't dare to guarantee that you can walk out of the gate of the palace." ”

The other party's meaning couldn't be clearer, Ruan Chen pretended to be calm and talked to him. "I can't cure this poison, even if I don't tell the emperor, I'm going to die."

"And what if I can give you an antidote?" The man's words made Ruan Chen's eyes widen, "It's just that if you ask for something in return, you have to pay." I wonder if Dr. Ruan would be willing to work with us once? ”
