Followed by Ah San, when he saw the terrifying man with a pale face, he only felt that his brain was blank, and he staggered forward and knelt down, crying, "Eighth prince!" The Eighth Prince! Why did this happen suddenly, how did the little one explain to His Majesty. ”

Seeing Ah San's scene, Jiang Shennan stepped forward and pulled, "Quickly help the Eighth Prince over, don't delay the imperial doctor's diagnosis and treatment." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Ah San, who woke up with a word, hurriedly reached out and wiped his face, and then quickly helped Jun Xu up, sat on the soft collapse on the side, and urged the imperial doctor.

The time for diagnosis and treatment is neither long nor short, but those here feel that the time is long and tight.

Yun Ruonan pinched the corners of his clothes tightly, staring at the movements of the imperial doctor, and didn't even dare to pant loudly nervously.

The uneasiness in my heart gradually magnified.

The imperial doctor's hand that had checked for him trembled and took it back, and his forehead was even more frightened, looking at them, his tone was not very good, and even a little displeased, "What did the Eighth Prince eat?" ”

When Jiang Shennan heard this, he explained, "We were just having lunch, but is there any problem?" ”

The imperial doctor's brows furrowed slightly, and just as he was about to say something, suddenly a sharp voice came from outside, "Your Majesty has arrived!" ”

Hearing this voice, Yun Ruonan was slightly stunned, Ah San too, after looking at each other, he hurriedly looked at the door, but he didn't notice the flash of light in Mu Xi's eyes, "Why did Your Majesty come here at this time?" ”

couldn't help but think about it, everyone knelt down to greet the emperor, and Yun Ruonan also quickly knelt down, not daring to raise his head.

It didn't take long to see the man in the yellow robe in front of him, and the tip of his shoe appeared in front of him, Yun Ruonan lowered his head and didn't dare to raise it, only to hear His Majesty's tone faintly mixed with anger, "Imperial Doctor!" ”

The imperial doctor was named, and his kneeling body trembled even more, "Old, the old minister is ......"

"How is the Eighth Prince's health?"

The imperial doctor swallowed his saliva, stared at the burning gaze and said, "Hui, back to Your Majesty, the eighth prince has been poisoned, and the old minister can't find out what poison it is......"

His Majesty stepped forward and walked a few steps, looked at the man on top of the soft collapse, pondered for a while, and finally became furious, "Poisoned? Where did the poison come from? Check, check it for me! ”

"Yes."

Jiang Shennan, who was kneeling, raised his head and secretly glanced at the angry emperor, and said softly, "Today, we only had lunch with the Eighth Prince, and we really didn't eat anything else. ”

Hearing this, His Majesty moved his gaze to the dining table, the wine was poured aside, and the food was barely moved, and it seemed that it had not been used up.

His face sank slightly, and he glanced at the imperial doctor on the side, "You go over and check." ”

When the imperial doctor heard this, he dared to delay, so he hurriedly hunched his back and took the medicine box and passed.

Under the gaze of everyone, he took out a silver needle and began to test for drugs.

There was nothing wrong with the food in front of them, until they saw the silver needle turn black from an empty bowl, and everyone's faces changed.

Especially Yun Ruonan, her eyes were full of disbelief.

His Majesty looked slightly annoyed and asked, "What is this?" ”

Ah San's face was stunned, but he looked at the bowl but his mood was a little complicated, and he moved his gaze to Yun Ruonan.

He had seen Miss Xiao Nan make peach blossom soup before, and the residue in it was also peach blossom soup.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's the peach blossom soup made by the slave maid for the Eighth Prince."

Yun Ruonan stepped forward, possessed herself, and replied in a low voice.

His Majesty glanced at Yun Ruonan, a flash of anger flashed in his dark eyes, he had always disliked the maid of unknown origin beside Xu'er, and he had always turned a blind eye.

thought that as long as he didn't do anything unfavorable to Xu'er, he wouldn't chase him, but now, he actually poisoned Xu'er under his nose.

With a "bang", the empty bowl of peach blossom soup was smashed on the ground next to Yun Ruonan, and the porcelain pieces splashed up and scratched Yun Ruonan's face, and everyone was even more frightened.

Yun Ruonan's lips were pursed, looking at the porcelain piece on the side, but she couldn't help but be confused.

This peach blossom soup was made by her own hands, and she also brought it with her own hands, how could it be poisonous!

Unless the ingredients are poisonous, even if the ingredients are poisonous, how can other meals not be poisonous, but this peach blossom soup is poisonous?

"You say, what the hell is going on?" His Majesty glared and stared at Yun Ruonan who was kneeling below.

Yun Ruonan frowned slightly, "Slave maid...... It's not poison from slaves. ”

"Your Majesty, this matter is very strange, and we have to investigate it carefully." Mu Xi on the side also pleaded.

Yun Ruonan turned his head to look at Mu Xi, he gave himself a look, inexplicably, there was a feeling of backing.

"Your Majesty, it is imperative to heal the Eighth Prince." Jiang Shennan also echoed.

His Majesty took a deep breath, glanced at the pale Eighth Emperor on the soft collapse, the worry on his face was overflowing, and finally glanced at Yun Ruonan again, gritted his teeth, and finally flicked his sleeves, "Lord Mu, you are the most trusted person of the Eighth Prince, I want you to find out this matter carefully, and you must give me an explanation within three days." ”

"Yes." Mu Xi was nominated and hurriedly responded.

In the end, His Majesty threw up his sleeves and left, so angry that no one dared to touch the scales.

Mu Xi glanced at Yun Ruonan on the side, stepped forward to help her up, looked at the shallow scratches on her face, reached out and touched it gently, "Are you okay?" ”

Yun Ruonan shook his head, but he was still distracted, "Why, why is the peach blossom soup just poisonous?" ”

Mu Xi pondered for a while, thoughtfully, and said, "Planting." ”

Hearing these two words, Yun Ruonan glanced at him.

Jiang Shennan on the side also nodded in agreement, "It must be Jun Yan's ghost!" ”

Looking at Yun Ruonan's slightly confused look, Jiang Shennan hurriedly explained, "Do you think, is this a murder with a knife?" Jun Yan has always wanted to get rid of the Eighth Prince and sit on the throne of the Prince, and you happen to have bumped into his secret, he must also want to get rid of you, and poison the Eighth Prince through you, think about who is most beneficial to it. ”

was said like this, Yun Ruonan also seemed to figure it out, "But we have no evidence." ”

Mu Xi heard this, "I will investigate this matter well, Ruonan doesn't have to worry, you take good care of the Eighth Prince." ”

……

The poison in the Eight Princes was strange, and the imperial doctor couldn't find out what kind of poison it was, but in the end, an elderly imperial doctor found out that this poison turned out to be an extremely rare poison.

And this antidote is also extremely difficult to find.

When His Majesty heard this notice, he was even more furious, and for a while, the imperial doctors of the entire palace were also working overtime to study the antidote.

And that day, another incident happened in the Qingyi Palace, and the three beauties in the hall died overnight, and it seemed that they were also poisoned.

Yun Ruonan was taken aback, and for a moment thought of the speculation that Mu Xi said before, could it be that Jun Yan killed people and killed him again, and there was no proof of death?

On that day, Mu Xi was summoned to see His Majesty.

"See Your Majesty."

His Majesty looked at him condescendingly, "Two days have passed, can I find out what I told you?" ”

"Weichen ......" Mu Xi hesitated.

In the eyes of His Majesty, there was naturally a result, and he couldn't help but increase his tone, "If you have the result, then say it, or do you intend to hide the murderer?" ”

Hearing this, Mu Xi's face changed slightly, and he quickly knelt down, "Weichen doesn't dare." ”

But just as he knelt down, a small porcelain vase fell from his body and rolled to the ground.

Attracted by his gaze, His Majesty took a look, "What is this?" ”

The corners of Mu Xi's lips pursed slightly, "Back to Your Majesty, this bottle contains the poison in the Eighth Prince." ”

Hearing this, His Majesty's face changed suddenly, his brows furrowed tightly, and he stood up, "Where did you find it?" ”

Mu Xi did not answer.

But His Majesty is a good person, and when he saw that he didn't want to say it, he knew who it was, and the words he said seemed to be questionable but affirmative, "Is it the maid next to Xu'er?" ”

Mu Xi still didn't answer, but his non-answer was the best answer.

His Majesty was furious, walking back and forth, and finally his eyes fell on him, "Lord Mu, in your opinion, what should be done to the people who murdered the royal family?" ”

Mu Xi bowed his head slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "The person who plotted to kill the royal family should be put in prison and handed over to the Criminal Department for disposal." ”

"If you remember, okay, pass on my order to put the poisoner in prison and hand him over to the Criminal Department for disposal."

The words fell, but Mu Xi, who was kneeling on the ground, didn't get up for a long time.

Seeing this, His Majesty's tone aggravated, "Still not accepting the order?" ”

Mu Xi hurriedly lowered his head and put one hand on his shoulder, "Weichen commands." ”

With that, he got up and withdrew.

When he turned around, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his lips hooked up with a triumphant smile.

Qingyi Palace.

Yun Ruonan and Ah San were taking care of Jun Xu on top of the soft collapse, but suddenly heard the sound of soldiers and armor colliding outside, as well as the sound of hurried footsteps.

Yun Ruonan was startled, and hurriedly got up and pulled the door out.

As far as the eye could see, they were surrounded by soldiers, all armed with swords and sharp weapons.

And the person who came out of the crowd was Mu Xi.

Yun Ruonan frowned slightly, and met his gaze, "Ah Xi? What's going on? ”

Mu Xi walked over and came to her side.

Yun Ruonan asked, "Have you found any evidence?" What's going on? ”

Mu Xi looked at the bloodshot in her eyes, her throat rolled up and down slightly, and finally moved her gaze, her voice was slightly hoarse, "No, I haven't ...... yet"

Hearing this, Yun Ruonan was slightly lost, looked at him again, and looked at the crowd below, "Who are these people?" ”

Mu Xi glanced at her, looked at each other for a long time, struggled for a while, reached out to her face, and slowly spoke, "Do you believe me?" ”

Yun Ruonan was slightly stunned, "Of course I believe it, what's wrong?" ”

Mu Xi chuckled, "There is something that really needs your help." ”

"What?"

Mu Xi lowered his eyes and looked embarrassed, "Your Majesty wants to put you in prison, it's useless for me to intercede for you, but don't worry, I will definitely find out the truth and save you." ”

Hearing this, Yun Ruonan looked at his self-blame, held his hand with his backhand, and said firmly, "Those who are clear are self-purifying, if I don't do it, there will definitely be a day when things will come out." ”

"What's more, you're still there, I believe in you."

As soon as the words came out, Mu Xi was slightly stunned, and when she met her clear eyes, they were still the same as when she was young, as clear and watery, as if she could speak.

"Do you really believe me?"

Mu Xi, who couldn't help but say this, was stunned for a while until Yun Ruonan nodded.

Mu Xi's mood became even more complicated, he stretched out his hand to pull her into his arms, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry." ”

Frightened by Mu Xi's sudden move, Yun Ruonan only thought that he had no way to apologize because His Majesty had put her in prison, and stretched out his hand to pat him on the back, "It's okay, I'll wait for you." ”

Hearing this, Mu Xi opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Let go of her, and only watch her follow the crowd away.
