Probably this was the first time that Baozhu had been in such close contact with Qi Hao, and her face flushed, she immediately stepped aside and saluted in a low voice: "The slave has seen the prince." ”

Qi Hao let out a "hmm", glanced at her reddened forehead, and then looked away and strode into the room.

Yin Suwan took in the shy reaction of Baozhu when she saw Qi Hao just now, and held back the anger in her heart, she smiled and said, "Brother Hao." ”

Qi Hao nodded, and sat on the edge of the bed with a light smile, "Do you feel strong in your legs today?" ”

Yin Suwan pulled down her sleeves without a trace, covered the wound in her palm, and said softly: "Miss Lin hasn't come here yet, and I don't dare to move, I may feel a little bit when she comes and the needle." ”

"Hexiang is poisoned, and Lin Sheng is detoxifying her." Qi Hao looked straight at Yin Suwan, not letting go of the slightest expression on her face.

Yin Suwan's eyes flashed, and the expression between her eyebrows was nervous, "Hexiang is poisoned?" What's going on? ”

Qi Hao pursed his lips and said slowly: "I don't know who poisoned her, maybe it was given to her, and maybe it was given to Gu Jinxiu, but the wrong one was wrong." ”

After a pause, he asked again, "Wanwan, what do you think?" ”

Yin Suwan didn't expect Qi Hao to ask herself, she was stunned at first, and then whispered: "Brother Hao, Hexiang is just a maidservant, there shouldn't be anyone who wants to harm her." ”

"Then you say, who would want to harm Gu Jinxiu?" Qi Hao followed Yin Suwan's words and continued to ask questions.

"I ......" in his deep and sharp gaze. Yin Suwan actually felt a sense of suffocation rushing towards her.

After hesitating for a moment, she seemed to have mustered up enough courage and said, "Brother Hao...... I'm afraid it's very inappropriate to say something. ”

"But if I don't, my conscience is very troubled."

Qi Hao hooked his lips and raised his hand to comb Yin Suwan's hair, "In front of this king, why can't you say it?" ”

Yin Suwan lowered her head and said softly, "When I went to Changyin Garden the day before yesterday. Concubine Gu fell into the water. ”

"I heard the maid say...... Concubine Gu was pushed down by Madame Yu. ”

In fact, when Gu Jinli fell into the lake, she knew from the beginning that it was Madam Yu's hand.

Because, when Lady Jade sneaked out of the main hall, she had already sent Shuang'er to follow behind secretly.

It's ridiculous that Madame Jade still thinks that what she did was seamless.

The reason why he was so blunt to expose this matter in front of Qi Hao was naturally to bring disaster to the east, and the small goal of lotus fragrance poisoning was transferred to the hatred between Mrs. Yu and Gu Jinli.

"Oh?" Regarding Gu Jinli's falling into the water, Qi Hao really didn't know.

First, he didn't expect so many people at the sorority the day before yesterday. There will be people who will dare to do it in public.

Second, Gu Jinli was kidnapped on the way home, where did he have the heart to ask what happened at the banquet?

After hearing Yin Suwan's words, Qi Hao's eyes darkened, and he said faintly: "Mrs. Jade? ”

Yin Suwan saw Qi Hao's face change slightly, and her heart instantly flushed with a sourness, but her face was very calm: "Well, I know that Madam Yu has always been at odds with Concubine Gu, but I didn't expect her to dare to attack Concubine Gu outside." ”

"Behind closed doors, we're all family. What contradictions cannot be resolved through negotiation? ”

"Fortunately, my eldest brother saved Concubine Gu in time, otherwise...... I don't dare to think about it. ”

"Your big brother?" Qi Hao caught a trace of important information and frowned.

"Big brother, he and Concubine Gu ......" Yin Suwan looked panicked, as if she had said something, and hurriedly stopped what she said.

"Wanwan." Qi Hao narrowed his eyes and said word by word: "Do you have something to hide from this king?" ”

Yin Suwan's voice was unnatural, and she sneered: "How can Wanwan have something to hide from Brother Hao?" ”

Qi Hao nodded, stared at Yin Suwan deeply, and said slowly: "Wanwan, you are the most trusted person of this king, don't lie to this king about anything." ”

Yin Suwan originally thought that Qi Hao would continue to ask, so that she could not only add more oil and vinegar to Mrs. Yu, but also confirm the personal affair between Yin Zike and Gu Jinli.

However, disappointed her, Qi Hao didn't seem to have any intention of pursuing it.

Opening her mouth, she decided not to say anything more.

After all, she is now more and more unable to guess Qi Hao's thoughts, who can guarantee that he is not testing himself now?

Nodding seemingly obediently, Yin Suwan said in a sincere tone: "Brother Hao, don't worry, Wanwan will never lie to you." ”

Pinching Yin Suwan's face, Qi Hao stood up and said in a deep voice: "This king still has some things to deal with, so I won't accompany you for now." ”

Yin Suwan felt as if she hadn't enjoyed the two of them with Qi Hao for a long time, either he stayed in the study and was busy with government affairs, or he went to the palace.

Thinking that she is still a virgin now, Yin Suwan's heart is like being deliberately stabbed with an awl.

However, since she was a child, the etiquette and upbringing of the ladies could not make her like Mrs. Yu, who surrendered her identity, abandoned her reserve, and took the initiative to ask for pleasure without shame, so she could only wait for Qi Hao to speak......

And Qi Hao doesn't seem to have the slightest idea of wanting to be close to her alone......

There was a touch of loneliness in her eyes, and Yin Suwan didn't open her mouth to stay.

After Qi Hao walked out of the yard, there was a sound of smashing things in the house.

Yin Suwan threw all the things on the bed to the ground, and when she caught a glimpse of the jewel still standing at the door, she was even more angry.

", what are you doing there? Why don't you get out of here? Picking up the vase on the shelf on the side, Yin Suwan smashed it towards the jewel again.

Baozhu has learned well this time, and the moment Yin Suwan just raised his hand, the person had already flashed to the side.

Yin Suwan saw that Baozhu dared to dodge, gritted her teeth and said, "Cheap." You're getting bolder! Kicked your nose in the face? ”

Baozhu hurriedly blessed her body, and admitted her mistake: "The princess is angry, the slave is worried that she will not be able to serve the princess after being injured, and she definitely doesn't have the intention to avoid it." ”

"!" Yin Suwan felt that Baozhu was so clever for the first time, and couldn't help but scold again.

"Don't be angry, the princess will not be angry if she is angry, the slave will go to the kitchen to boil medicine for you first." Baozhu saw that Yin Suwan was angry, and immediately retreated.

Yin Suwan's face was angry, her chest rose and fell with anger, she trembled and pointed to the back of the jewel, and she spit out a mouthful of black blood with a "poof".

"Bang", and then, her person fell straight back.

"Princess, princess!" Shuang'er was so frightened that his face turned pale.

cautiously called Yin Suwan a few times, and seeing that she didn't respond, Shuang'er ran out of Yixin Courtyard.

After Qi Hao left the Yixin Courtyard, he carefully recalled the words he had just heard at the door of the room, and his face was gloomy.

Yin Suwan and the maids' words, although he didn't hear much, it can be inferred from that few words that the lotus fragrance poisoning must have been planned by Yin Suwan.

And she seemed to inadvertently reveal that it was Madam Yu who pushed Gu Jinli into the lake, in order to anger Madame Yu herself.

Moreover, when Yin Zike and Gu Jinli were mentioned, her ambiguous attitude probably wanted to misunderstand herself, and then deepen her disgust with Gu Jinli......

I have to say that this method of killing two birds with one stone is indeed very powerful......

Sighing heavily, Qi Hao's steps became heavier and heavier.

For some reason, he walked to the door of the Hibiscus Temple.

His legs were like a thousand pounds of stones, and he couldn't lift his feet anymore.

After a long time, he remembered that Gu Jinli's people should be in Lin Sheng's courtyard at this time.

Shaking his head, just as he was about to turn around, he saw Du Jiang hurrying over with a serious face.

Arching his hand, he said, "Lord Wang, I found it." ”

"Concubine Gu fell into the water during the sorority, and it was Mrs. Yu who did it."

Qi Hao had already learned from Yin Suwan's mouth, so his face did not fluctuate in the slightest, and he just nodded.

"Lord Wang, Lord Wang!" Suddenly, a panting voice came from behind him, Qi Hao turned his head, and saw Shuang'er wiping his tears and saying, "Princess...... She just vomited blood and fainted! ”

Qi Hao frowned, and said coldly: "Wasn't it good just now?" Why do I vomit blood all of a sudden? ”

Maybe, because he knew too many dishonorable methods behind Yin Suwan, he became suspicious of her after hearing her vomit blood.

However, this time Qi Hao was really worried, Yin Suwan really didn't pretend this time......

Shuang'er said in a trembling voice: "The slave and maid don't know either, Wang ...... Rajah. Go and see the princess! ”

"What's the use of looking for this king if you don't go to the doctor?!" It stands to reason that if it was Qi Hao before, he would have rushed to Yixin Courtyard after hearing Yin Suwan vomit blood.

However, now he threw Shuang'er such a sentence that sounded very impatient, and he didn't know if it was because he was in a bad mood or for other reasons, in short, Shuang'er was stunned.

With wide eyes, she looked at Qi Hao like a stranger, and reminded again: "Lord, princess, she vomited blood!" ”

"Du Jiang, call Lin Sheng to Yixin Courtyard!" After dropping this sentence, Qi Hao strode away, leaving only Shuang'er with a cold and hard back.

"Yes, lord." Du Jiang answered and immediately walked towards Lin Sheng's courtyard.

At this time, Lin Sheng was lying on the soft collapse to take a nap, while Gu Jinli was sitting on the edge of the bed and looked at the lotus fragrance that had recovered her pulse and was breathing evenly.

Inexplicably, her mind would always keep flashing the picture of Qi Hao when she was here just now.

He said that he didn't come to see Lin Sheng, was it really as Lin Sheng said, he deliberately sat here and waited for him?

The ripples in her heart rose slightly, and the corners of her lips unconsciously lifted lightly.

Turning her head to look at Lin Sheng again, Gu Jinli said to herself, "This Lin girl, how can she sleep so well?" ”

She thought that such a small voice could only be heard by herself, but she heard Lin Sheng say in a muffled voice: "Because I am sick." ”

"Uh...... Miss Lin, didn't you fall asleep? Gu Jinli smiled embarrassedly and asked.

Lin Sheng rubbed his eyes, and there was a bit of sleepiness in his voice, "I can't sleep well." ”

"Miss Lin, Miss Lin!" As soon as her words fell, she only heard Du Jiang's voice coming from the courtyard.

"Look, trouble is here again." Lin Sheng's face was slumped, with a loveless expression.

"Poof", Gu Jinli couldn't help laughing, "Miss Lin, you are so cute." ”

Lin Sheng stood up and muttered, "Cute wool, it's obviously pitiful." ”

"Huh?" Gu Jinli thought she had misheard, so she asked, "What wool?" ”

"Miss Lin, princess, she ......" Without waiting for Du Jiang to finish speaking, he saw Lin Sheng waving his hand irritably. Carrying the medicine box and going out of the door.

She is a doctor, so if Qi Hao can come to her, it must also be a matter of curing diseases and saving people.

Du Jiang saw that Lin Sheng was so conscious, so he followed.

After Lin Sheng arrived at Yixin Courtyard, after checking Yin Suwan's pulse, he looked at her tongue coating again, and said after a while: "How long have you been vomiting blood?" ”

Shuang'er stepped forward and said, "Miss Huilin, the princess does not vomit blood every day, but occasionally from time to time. ”

"In the past, Imperial Physician Wei came to show the princess and said that there was an unknown poison in the princess's body."

"Hmm." Lin Sheng covered his yawning mouth. Said slowly: "Tell your lord, the one among your princesses is the slowest poison, and she can live for three years and five years." ”

"Then Miss Lin, do you know what kind of poison is in the princess?" Shuang'er listened to it and blurted out.

Lin Sheng raised his eyes to look at Shuang'er and sneered: "This poison has been lurking in the body for at least half a month, if you start detoxifying it from now on, you may be able to completely detoxify." ”

"But...... I've always been a dedicated person, and it's hard to do it all at once. ”

Seeing Shuang'er looking at herself puzzled, Lin Sheng pretended to say: "Treating your princess's leg is my most important task now, if I want to distract myself from detoxifying her, I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything." ”

This means that it is politely refused.

Or it is implying that if you want a leg, you don't want a leg, and if you want a leg, you don't want a leg.

"Hmm...... So sleepy. Lin Sheng yawned loudly, and tears flowed down the corners of his eyes.

Stretching, she picked up the medicine box and left the courtyard.

After Lin Sheng left, Shuang'er looked at Yin Suwan, who was pale, and clenched her fists.

Night is coming quietly, and when the moon climbs up, it means that the day is coming to an end.

The night wind blew, and there was a burst of rumors in the palace.

It is said that when a person who poisons lotus incense touches the poison, his hands will begin to fester, and gradually his whole body will fester, and he will die, which can only be avoided by soaking it in rice wine with saffron overnight.

Although Jin Se didn't believe this rumor, he thought that his hands were indeed a little itchy, so he decided to give it a try with a fluke mentality.

There was no rice wine in the small kitchen of the Fleur Courtyard, so she had to sneak into the big kitchen.

After she just stood on the small bench and moved down the rice wine on the top layer of the shelf, she was startled by the twin children that appeared behind her at some point.

"Double ...... Sister Shuang'er, why are you here? Swallowing his saliva, Jin Se whispered uneasily.

Suddenly remembering that Yin Suwan had vomited blood during the day, she asked again, "Is the princess's body better?" ”

Shuang'er looked at the wine jar she held in her arms, nodded, and said in a deep voice: "The princess wants you to go to Yixin Courtyard." ”

"Now?" Jin Se looked at the sky outside and hesitated: "It's so late, why don't you wait for tomorrow?" ”

Yin Suwan suddenly asked Shuang'er to call her to go to Yixin Courtyard, will something bad happen?

The more he thought about it, the more Jin Se felt like someone was beating a small drum, and the "dong dong" was beating non-stop.

Sensing the worry on Jin Se's face, Shuang'er said in a low voice: "The princess called you in the past for something important, so you don't have to delay any longer." ”

Jin Se bit his lip, put down the rice wine, and still tried uneasily: "Sister Shuang'er, I haven't done a good job, shouldn't the princess want to kill me?" ”

patted Jin Se on the shoulder, and Shuang'er said, "What are you thinking about?" The princess is so kind, how could she kill you? ”

"Besides, it's not your fault this time, you can only blame Lin Sheng for being nosy!"

Seeing that Jin Se's nervous expression eased down, Shuang'er pulled Jin Se and said, "Let's go, the princess is still waiting!" If someone finds out again, you and I won't be able to eat and walk away! ”

At the same time, in the Nanyang Palace, under the candlelight that emitted red light, Chen Zexuan's face was very ugly after reading the letter in his hand.

Lei Zi was puzzled and asked, "Shizi, what did the old prince say in the letter?" ”

The old prince in his mouth is naturally Chen Zexuan's father, Chen Shicheng, the king of Nanyang.

Chen Zexuan lit the letter. Youyou said: "Father said that Yushu secretly left Nanyang yesterday and is coming towards the capital. ”

"What? The county is going to come to the capital? When Leizi heard this, he was taken aback.

Chen Zexuan rubbed his eyebrows, and said helplessly: "Yushu has been sick and calamito since she was a child, she has tossed all the way over, this is simply not taking her body seriously!" ”

"Shizi, the county lord is a person who knows how to measure, don't worry." Lei Zi heard the worry in Chen Zexuan's tone, and comforted: "Otherwise." The subordinates sent someone to meet the county lord on the road in advance. ”

King Nanyang has only one princess, and she is one of the few men in this world who has achieved "one heart, and the white head is not separated".

In the eighth year after Princess Nanyang gave birth to Chen Zexuan, she gave birth to the county lord Yushu.

Yushu was born with a quiet baby face when she was young, and she still looks delicate and weak when she grows up.

However, delicate is delicate, but Yushu's character is very well-behaved and filial enough.

It's just that the only drawback is that she relies too much on herself......

Sighing lightly, Chen Zexuan nodded and said, "That's it, you go and arrange it and see if you can pick her up in advance." ”

Lei Zi answered, and immediately flew away.

Chen Zexuan stood up, slowly walked to the window, and looked at the dark night sky, his eyes were faint.

The day after tomorrow is Gu Huai's birthday, Gu Jinli will definitely go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to attend the birthday banquet, so should she also join in the fun?

The bright red lips pursed slightly, and the tear moles in the corners of his eyes were reflected in the candlelight, adding a touch of strange charm.

Day 2. The sky was still bright, and early in the morning, Steward Zhou gathered all the subordinates in the mansion in the center of the compound.

After succinctly explaining the method of finding out the person who poisoned the lotus incense, let the subordinates put their hands in the basin of water in turn to verify their identity.

The pale green liquid in the basin was naturally not an "antidote" made by mixing rice wine and saffron, but a medicine specially developed by Lin Sheng.

When people have smeared rice wine and saffron on their hands before, then after coming into contact with this green medicinal soup, their hands will definitely change color.

In this way, the identity of the person behind it is also exposed.

In order to take care of Hexiang's body, Gu Jinli still let her recuperate in the room, and sent Aiyue to take care of her.

The subordinates put their hands into the basin in turn for a while, and when they took them out, they found that their hands had not changed at all, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Gu Jinli and Qi Hao sat on the side, watching the people in Yixin Courtyard clear their suspicions one by one, so they couldn't help but glance at each other.

Immediately after that, the people of Fuyuan began to verify.

The color of Rouge's hand did not change when she put it in, but when it came to Jinse, I saw that her hands were full of gauze, and she looked so pitiful.

"Lord Wang, Concubine Gu, the slave's hand is injured, so I'm afraid I can't ......"

"Oh?" The reason why Gu Jinli put on such a big position today is to pull Jin Se out and tear apart her hypocritical appearance.

However, unexpectedly, after hearing the rumors last night, Yin Suwan had insight into Gu Jinli's purpose to lure Jin Se out, so after Shuang'er brought Jin Se back to Yixin Courtyard, she picked up a pot of hot tea and poured it on Jin Se's hands without saying a word.

Before she screamed. He was gagged again, so the wound on his hand was real.

Even if Gu Jinli and Qi Hao didn't believe it, they tore off the gauze and revealed the two scars.

Anyway, her hands can't get wet, if Gu Jinli has a tough attitude and asks her to verify, it will be too ruthless.

A sneer overflowed between her lips, and Gu Jinli said slowly, "When did your hand hurt?" Why didn't I know? ”

Jin Se lowered his head and whispered: "Don't hide it from the side concubine, the slave was hungry last night and wanted to cook something to eat, but she was afraid that lighting the lamp would attract people's attention, so she touched the black and burned the fire." ”

"One accidentally burned his hand when he was adding firewood."

"If Concubine Gu doesn't believe it, the slave can untie the gauze."

Qi Hao glanced at Jin Se meaningfully, and said coldly: "Next!" ”

After Jin Se stepped back with relief, the people behind him stepped forward one after another, repeating the same action of those people just now.

About an hour later, the verification was completed.

It's just that none of the hands changed color......

Pressing all the unwillingness into her heart, Gu Jinli saluted Qi Hao with a bad face and said, "Lord, the concubine has to go back to take care of Hexiang, so I'll go back first." ”

Qi Hao frowned, and his tone was a little dissatisfied: "This king has been sitting here for so long, and you haven't said a word of thanks?" ”

After Gu Jinli said "Thank you, Lord Wang", she raised her feet and was about to leave, but she heard Qi Hao say behind her: "Tomorrow on your father's birthday, this king will accompany you back." ”

As soon as the steps stopped, Gu Jinli suddenly turned her head in disbelief, looked at Qi Hao, and said in a daze: "What did you say?" ”

"This king said, I will accompany you back to the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow." Qi Hao said that, he also got up and left his seat, and strode towards the study.

"Uh......" Gu Jinli plucked her ears and asked Steward Zhou, who also thought she was having auditory hallucinations, "Just now...... That person is the prince, right? ”

Steward Zhou nodded, "It's the prince, it's like a fake." ”

Gu Jinli looked at the joy on Steward Zhou's face that couldn't be hidden, and felt inexplicable.
