286. 286. Poisoning

"Then the only way to get rid of that woman is to get rid of her." Chu Yunyi said, since ancient times, it is normal for men to have three wives and four concubines, but very few men are willing to become sons-in-law, as Xiao Yun said, either they have a love for that woman, or they have other plans.

"Yes, get rid of the dark clouds, and they won't have to lose their dignity to marry into the palace."

Lou Haiyang shook the folding fan in his hand and said slowly: "Princess Wuyun is a legitimate successor to the throne, and she is deeply supported by the subjects of the Zhou State, those two people should not have the courage to murder Princess Wuyun, right?" Otherwise, would it not be self-defeating? ”

In other words, although he didn't want to marry a woman, he didn't murder that woman because of this.

"It depends on whether they are really unintentional and reckless? Or is it being taken advantage of? ”

Caressing the red jade bracelet on his wrist, Qingyun's tone was quiet and solemn and cold: "In addition to the dark clouds, the other dozen princes and princesses of Emperor Zhou are all dead, and there are no brothers and nephews who are still alive, only one of his own uncles, King De, is alive, and he has two sons and three grandchildren, which in itself makes people feel incredible, plus the Zhou Kingdom is now an eventful season, once the dark clouds have a mistake, who do you think will be the biggest beneficiary?" ”

King De?!

Everyone looked shocked.

"You can't have the heart to hurt people, but you can't have the heart to prevent people!" Qingyun said meaningfully: "Now think about the civil strife in the Zhou Kingdom, on the surface, it seems that Amu Gulang and Gessel are ambitious, but I don't know what Lu Dao is about, I always feel that there is a hand behind me that is fueling the troubles, especially in just a few days The civil strife has been quelled, even if we have the calculations and arrangements we participated in, it is too unreasonable, after all, Amu Gulang has been planning for so many years, and his power should not be underestimated." ”

The people were silent in thought.

If it weren't for the princess's insight and early arrangement, the country's civil strife would not have ended so quickly, but it took almost two months to wipe out the rebels, not including the princess's previous deployment.

Could it be that the king of morality is really the mastermind behind the scenes? So what is his purpose in doing this......

Gently holding Qingyun's slightly cool hand, Mo Xuan said gently: "I will accompany you into the palace tonight to visit Princess Wuyun." "I hope Princess Wuyun can understand Xiyan's friendship for her, otherwise he will never let Princess Wuyun go.

Looking at Mo Xuan beside her, Qingyun nodded slightly, her heart was full of emotion and happiness, in the end, Chen Yu understood her mind best.

Gazing deeply at his beloved with sparkling eyes, Mo Xuan's ordinary face was filled with a warm smile, and in his bewitching eyes that shone like stars, there was no regret, affection and pampering went straight to Qingyun's heart.

The two stared affectionately, which naturally stung Chu Yunyi and Yu Peiyao's eyes and hearts, or lowered their eyes slightly or turned their eyes away, hiding the sourness and sorrow in their hearts.

The starry eyes swirled back and forth between the four of them, Lou Haiyang slowly and methodically shook the folding fan, and a hint of inexplicable scorn crossed the corner of his lips.

At night, the bright moon is hung high in the dark sky, and the bright moonlight covers the whole earth, lightly sprinkled with a layer of hazy and beautiful silver yarn, and the stars are shining and shining, reflecting the swaying candles on the ground, which is a beautiful and picturesque scene.

In the candle-lit Zhaoyang Palace, Princess Wuyun was still sitting behind the imperial case to review the chapters, sometimes frowning and contemplating, sometimes writing hard.

Looking at the hourglass next to him, Wu Damu, who was standing beside Princess Wuyun, had a trace of distress and gloom in his deep eyes: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the night is deep, you should go to bed." ”

"I still have a few pieces left unfinished." Princess Wuyun didn't raise her head and said, "I've worked hard for you this time, let's go down and rest first." ”

When she returned from the Jin Kingdom to celebrate her birthday, she transferred Udamu back to the palace.

Perhaps because Udamu has been by her side since she was a child, and now that she is about to ascend the throne, she wants to share this glory with him.

"Her Royal Highness the princess did not rest, and her subordinates did not rest." Quickly hiding the emotion in his eyes, Udamu poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Princess Wuyun.

Hearing this, Princess Wuyun put down the pen in her hand, then took the teacup handed by Wudamu and blew it, and drank a few sips elegantly, then looked up at him and said, "Wudamu, I said, we are friends, and we will ...... in the future."

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly frowned, only to feel a fishy sweetness in her throat, and suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood that stained the music on the table, the whole person seemed to be immersed in a thousand-year-old cold pool, and the cold and severe pain quickly swept her body and mind, and the cold and cold sweat broke out on her forehead, her face was instantly pale as snow, and the tea cup in her hand fell to the ground with a 'bang' and shattered into pieces, and the rich tea fragrance flowed quietly in the air.

Wu Damu's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly stepped forward to help her, and was just about to raise his voice to order the palace maid to call the imperial doctor, when two black shadows suddenly appeared.

Seeing the faces of the people who came, Wu Damu was both surprised and delighted: "Princess Jiayi ......"

Qingyun nodded slightly at Udamu.

And Mo Xuan had already dodged and jumped to Princess Wuyun's side to check her pulse, and after a while, he took out a pill and handed it to Udamu to feed her, allowing Udamu to input internal force to relieve her pain, and at the same time, several golden needles pierced several key points on her body.

After about half a cup of tea, Princess Wuyun's breath gradually stabilized, her face had a faint ruddyness, Mo Xuan pulled out the golden needle, and Wudamu also withdrew his internal strength and stood quietly next to her, with unconcealed worry and pity in his eyes.

Weakly smiling at Udamu to signal that she was fine, Princess Wuyun turned to look at Qingyun and Mo Xuan, and said gratefully, "Thank you!" If they hadn't appeared in time, by the time the imperial doctor arrived, she might have died: "Master Mo, may I ask what poison I have?" "Having faced countless intrigues since she was a child, she naturally knew that this was a symptom of poisoning.

"Dreams!"

Princess Wuyun and Udamu were both puzzled: "Dream? ”

"This is a chronic secret poison developed by the Absolute Dust Palace." Mo Xuan said lightly: "If you don't notice and take the antidote as soon as possible, after taking this poison for three months in a row, the poisoned person will fall into his own fantasy dream, as if he has lost his mind and is crazy, and he will die after half a year;

Judging from the princess's pulse, the poisoning time will not exceed a month, except for the occasional lack of energy, it is no different from ordinary people;

If it weren't for someone who gave the princess a medicine to stab* provoke the onset of this poison, the princess would not vomit blood, and she would not know that she had been poisoned, and she would not have looked down on the imperial doctors of the Zhou Kingdom, after all, this is a secret poison developed by the Absolute Dust Palace, and I believe that with their medical attainments, it will not be diagnosed at all. ”

"It's the Absolute Dust Palace again!" Princess Dark Clouds' beautiful face was suddenly covered with frost as cold as snow.

The people of the Absolute Dust Palace have infiltrated the palace again and again to plot against each other, and they are simply bold!

Udamu Bing Silence's pupils flashed with bloodthirsty murderous intent, and his body burst out with a gloomy aura like a hellish Shura.

Qingyun frowned thoughtfully: "Xiaoyun, don't worry, I don't think this matter should be so simple, although the secret poison comes from the Absolute Dust Palace, I suspect that the person who poisoned it may not be from the Absolute Dust Palace." ”

"What do you mean by this?" Princess Dark Cloud looked at Qingyun in disbelief.

"What Xi Yan means is that last time Xi Yan and the princess joined forces to eradicate all the Absolute Dust Palaces in the Zhou Palace, and then Xi Yan sent troops to encircle and suppress the old * nest of the Absolute Dust Palace, and now the people of the Absolute Dust Palace themselves are difficult to protect, where is the energy and heart to sneak into the Zhou Palace to poison the princess?"

Mo Xuan took Qingyun's hand and walked to the chair next to him and sat down: "And the 'illusion dream' in the princess must be taken continuously every day, otherwise it will have no effect, and only the people around the princess can do this." ”

"The most important thing is ......" Qingyun then told Princess Wuyun about the scene that Yu Peiyao saw, "I suspect that the palace maid was either bribed or coerced, or she was the one behind the scenes. ”

Princess Wuyun and Wudamu glanced at each other after hearing this, and there was a dark tide in their eyes, the cup of tea just now was prepared by the palace maid!

"Udamu, bring Chai Ligan to see the palace immediately!"

"Subordinates obey!" Udamu quickly left the Zhaoyang Palace.

"Chai Ligan, that palace maid you said has followed me for many years, and she has always been in charge of my daily life and diet, but I didn't expect her to ......" Princess Wuyun sighed lightly, with coldness and depression between her eyebrows: "And that fake eunuch is the eldest young master of the General's Mansion, Mai Lasu, I grew up with him since I was a child, and I am also a childhood sweetheart, I believe that he must have done this as a last resort." ”

"Xiaoyun has affection for him?" If not, how can one be sure that Merasu is a last resort?

"I do have a different kind of affection for him." Seeing Qingyun's eyebrows raised, Princess Wuyun knew that she had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "It's not what Qing'er thought, in fact, the two of us have always been like brothers and sisters, and never thought that one day we would get married...... Although I am about to become emperor, I can't help myself, so I have to acquiesce. ”

Qingyun shook his head disapprovingly and said, "Even if he is unwilling to give up his dignity to marry you, he shouldn't be ruthless in poisoning you!" ”

"No, it won't! He has always been kind-hearted and very protective and loving to me, and I am sure that he will not poison me! ”

"Even if he didn't poison him, this matter is definitely inseparable from him!"

Holding Qingyun's hand tightly, Mo Xuan's enchanting eyes were as deep as an abyss, Xiyan was like this, and she couldn't allow anyone to hurt the people she cared about.

Princess Wuyun leaned back against the back of the chair in a gloomy manner, her beautiful face was full of sadness and loneliness, and she still refused to believe that Merasu, who was as close as her brother, would ruthlessly poison her because she did not want to enter the palace!

While speaking, Wu Damu walked into the hall with a young woman wearing palace maid clothes and a beautiful face, and when she saw Qingyun and Mo Xuan, a trace of panic and panic crossed the woman's eyes, and she bowed her head and knelt on the ground: "Slave and maid see Her Royal Highness the Princess, Her Royal Highness the Princess Jin'an!" ”

"Chai Ligan, tell me honestly who instructed you to poison the tea in the palace?"
