Chapter 196: Tiger Poison Doesn't Eat Seeds
Duanmu Youning groaned, and then asked, "How is the relationship between the princess and the concubine?"
"Very good!" Leng Qiubo replied immediately, but after a pause, he seemed a little hesitant, "It should be...... Every time they enter the palace, Wen Xing shushes Yun'er and cares for her, which should be very good. Watermark Ad Test: Watermark Ad Test"
Duanmu Youning pursed his lips and smiled slightly: "Niangniang has used two 'shoulds' in a row, could it be that she has already seen that something is wrong?"
Leng Qiubo pursed his lips, obviously unwilling to answer this question, and his brows furrowed slightly: "Young Master Ning, this palace said that it would never doubt your intentions, but I still want to ask: Is this question related to Yun'er's lack of appearance?"
After all, it involves personal **, Duanmu Youning had already expected Leng Qiubo to react like this, so he didn't mind, nodded and replied: "Not only related, but also greatly related." Since Niangniang has doubts, she might as well say bluntly: The princess has not come out for three years, in fact, because ......"
She took a few steps forward, lowered her voice very low, and said something quickly. Before the words could be fully landed, Leng Qiubo's face had changed suddenly: "What?!really?!"
"Yes. Duanmu Youning nodded, signaling her to be calm, "That's why I will ask Niangniang about those questions later, and I don't have any bad intentions." ”
Leng Qiubo's face had become extremely ugly, and even his breath was disordered, and he was a little overwhelmed. After a while, a trace of anger appeared on her usually gentle face, and she gritted her teeth lightly and said: "Bengong said that although Wen Xing behaves gently and considerately to Yun'er every time in front of Bengong, his eyes are full of coldness! Bengong thought it was an illusion, but it turned out to be ......."
Duanmu condensed: "Cold?"
"Hmm. Leng Qiubo agreed, and his anger became a little stronger, "To put it simply, although he greeted Yun'er with a smile, that smile couldn't reach the bottom of his eyes, Ning Gongzi, do you understand the meaning of this palace?"
Duanmu Youning also counted countless people, and immediately nodded: "Yes, I understand." In fact, this is also normal, after all, compared to the maid, the colt has more opportunities for intimate contact with the princess, and it is the least likely to arouse suspicion. However, it is also necessary to remind Niang Niang that all this is our speculation, and there is no real evidence. Maybe the colt didn't do it, but someone else was plotting it?"
It is worthy of Concubine Dong, who is accustomed to seeing wind and waves, and quickly forced herself to calm down, nodded and said: "This palace knows, thank you Gongzi Ning for reminding me." But since this point was discovered by Childe, may I ask if Childe has a way to find out who did it?"
Duanmu Youning frowned: "I'm afraid this is a little troublesome......"
Night is falling. Although Suo Tianli is still asleep, his face has gradually become ruddy, and his breath is much smoother, obviously improving, maybe he will wake up at some moment.
Pu Pingzhu is decocting medicine in the kitchen, fulfilling his responsibilities as a mother for her seriously ill son. The prescription was prescribed by Duanmu Youning according to Suo Tianli's physical condition, although he was unconscious in a coma, he could instinctively swallow some, which was very good for his recovery.
Seeing that the medicine was about to be decocted, Pu Pingzhu saw that there was no one left and right, suddenly gritted his teeth, and gently took out a small paper bag from his arms. Although she tried desperately to keep her composure, her hands still trembled like fallen leaves in the wind, and little by little she approached the steaming medicine jar.
Shaking and shaking, he opened the paper packet, and as long as he tilted it slightly, the white medicinal powder would completely melt into the medicinal juice and disappear. However, at this moment, she suddenly withdrew her hand and gasped violently, and a dense cold sweat was already pouring out on her forehead!
After a while, the rapid wheezing calmed down a little, and Pu Pingzhu calmed down and moved his hand again. After staring at the medicine powder for a long time, she finally gritted her teeth fiercely, rewrapped the paper bag and hid it in her arms, and then poured out the medicine and shouted: "Tong'er, the medicine is decoction!"
"Yes!"
The maid outside the door agreed, came in and picked up the tray, and followed Pu Pingzhu to the East Palace.
In front of Suo Tianli's bed, Jiang Mingyue was quietly talking to Duanmu Youning, when she suddenly heard a rumor that the queen had arrived, and the two got up to salute. Pu Pingzhu had basically returned to normal, waved his hand with a smile, and motioned for the two to be exempt: "Ning Gongzi, the medicine has been decocted, how is Li'er?"
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince is all right. Duanmu Youning bowed down and replied, "If there is no accident, you should be able to wake up tomorrow." ”
"Is it?That's great!" Pu Pingzhu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled very happily, "It's been really hard for Ning Gongzi these days, this palace is here to take care of Li'er, you go back and rest!"
Duanmu Youning shook his head: "Niangniang doesn't know, according to the situation of His Royal Highness the Prince, tonight will be crucial, and it is likely to be related to whether he can wake up tomorrow." After all, I have some experience in the next place, so I must stay here tonight to be ready for any eventuality. ”
Pu Pingzhu couldn't help frowning, but he had no reason to object, so he insisted on feeding Suo Tianli medicine in person, and then left unwillingly. But I don't know if it's her illusion, she always feels that Duanmu Youning's eyes seem to be a little cold when she looks at her.
"Girl, why don't you let me catch her on the spot?" Jiang Mingyue snorted, her face flushed with anger, "Tiger poison doesn't eat children!
Since he knew that there were people in the shadows eyeing Suo Tianli, Duanmu Youning naturally couldn't be defenseless, and the most unguardable thing was poisoning. Therefore, she had already sent Jiang Mingyue to pay close attention to all the movements in the kitchen, of course, with the skills she learned from Min Feiyang, even if the diet was really poisoned, she couldn't hide it from her eyes, she just wanted to see who the poisoned person would be, who knew that the first person to be caught was Suo Tianli's mother?
With a slight sneer, she shook her head and said, "You also said that tiger poison does not eat children, if there is no other reason, how could Pu Pingzhu attack his own son?"
Jiang Mingyue suddenly said: "What does the girl mean to put a long line to catch a big fish?"
"Well," Duanmu Youning nodded, "You also saw it just now, Pu Pingzhu actually can't bear to poison Xunhuan at all, someone must be forcing her behind her back, or she has a last resort." In that case, what's the use of us just finding her out? Instead, it will startle the snake and make the mastermind behind the scenes hide deeper. ”
"It makes sense, it's still a clever girl. Jiang Mingyue praised sincerely, "That's ...... Do you want me to spy on Pu Pingzhu and see who she is secretly dealing with?"
Duanmu Youning groaned slightly: "Not for the time being." Now the most important thing is to ensure that Xunhuan wakes up smoothly, and there must be no mistakes! You and I will stay here tonight until Xunhuan wakes up. Honestly, I can't trust anyone but you. ”
Jiang Mingyue grinned: "Thank you, girl, me too." Okay, then let Pu Pingzhu go for the time being. Alas, how sad it would have been for Brother Yan to know that his biological mother was actually trying to harm him......
Pu Pingzhu didn't know that her secret had been exposed, and fled back to the dormitory like a thief, so she had time to wipe the cold sweat on her head and order the maid to serve tea.
After taking a few sips of herbal tea, her heart became more irritable, so she took a hasty bath and lay down on the bed, tossing and turning and unable to sleep.
What should I do? What should I do? She can't do anything to poison Li'er, but if Li'er doesn't die, she will probably die! If you knew this was the case, why bother in the first place? Sure enough, people can't be too greedy, don't take anything that doesn't belong to you, and even if you do, you have to return it sooner or later, and you will have to pay it back with interest!
"Has the queen been asleep here?
Suo Tianwei's cold and low voice suddenly sounded in the room, and Pu Pingzhu screamed in fright: "Ah......!
The exclamation immediately alarmed the maid waiting outside the door: "Niangniang, what's wrong?"
“...... It's okay!" Pu Pingzhu calmed down and pretended to be calm, "This palace has a nightmare, it's okay, you don't have to wait!"
The maid answered yes and stopped talking, and Pu Pingzhu gritted his teeth and whispered: "Why are you here again?!"
"Don't worry, Erchen is very careful. Suo Tianwei sneered lowly, "It's just that the ministers waited left and right, and they didn't receive good news from Niangniang, so they had to come over in person to see if the medicine was ineffective." ”
Pu Pingzhu's whole body trembled violently, and he suddenly shouted in a low voice: "This palace can't do it! How can this palace attack Li'er?! He is the son of this palace! You are obviously trying to force this palace to death!"
"Erchen didn't dare. Suo Tianwei shrugged his shoulders, his eyes were full of sarcastic sneers, "What the queen mother has done, I know it in my heart, if you couldn't do it like this at the beginning, how could you be today?"
Pu Pingzhu opened his mouth and stammered, all the screams disappeared without a trace in an instant, but the remorse in his eyes became stronger and stronger: "You...... What do you want?!"
"What do you want to do, the queen already knows!" Suo Tianwei's face was full of innocence, "The queen mother promised to give her good news today, hasn't the son been waiting?"
Pu Pingzhu clutched the quilt on his chest tightly, because of the excessive force, his knuckles were already white. Her lips trembled violently for a long time, and she suddenly shook her head: "No, this palace can't harm Li'er!
"Yes. Suo Tianwei sneered faintly, but he was not in a hurry, "The queen can't do it, but the sons can do it, since this is the case, the sons and daughters will retire." ”
As he spoke, he turned around to leave, but there was a smug sneer on the corner of his mouth. Sure enough, before he could take a few steps, Pu Pingzhu had already jumped out of bed and stopped in front of him: "Don't go! What are you going to do!? You have to go to the emperor, right?
Suo Tianwei didn't speak, just looked at him quietly. Seeing the words "non-negotiable" in his eyes, Pu Pingzhu finally gritted his teeth: "Okay! Give Bengong another chance!"
"That's right!" Suo Tianwei smiled with satisfaction, "Don't people destroy the heavens and the earth for themselves! Sacrifice yourself for others, how is it worth it? Niang Niang has a good rest, and the retainer retires!"
The figure disappeared in an instant, but Pu Pingzhu was weak and collapsed directly on the ground, his face full of despair.
