Chapter 813: Adventure in a Deserted Village
Did she really do something to Cher? "The third prince is completely disappointed in the step-princess, originally thought that she was not in the mansion, she could think about the child in her belly, at least stay in the mansion and raise the baby well. didn't expect that she would take advantage of her absence to attack Beimingxue. Knowing that Cher was very important to him, she still did it.
The faint Murong Xi saw the killing intent in the eyes of the third prince, but she didn't have the heart to feel the mood of the third prince, if it weren't for Bailichen, she would have dismantled the step-princess a long time ago.
"She moved her hands and feet in the spices in the North Stygian Snow House, if it weren't for Bailichen, the Northern Stygian Snow would have almost gone to see the King of Hades." Murong Xi said.
The third prince breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, in his current situation, Bei Mingxue couldn't help him at all. My father had already known everything, not only arranged for people to guard his palace, but even the soldiers and horses outside the city had long been tamed by my father's people. And what he wants now is not the Bei Yingxue who can help him seize the throne, all he wants now is that his children can live in peace and stability in the future. After being arrested by his father, his mentality changed.
As my father said, I really don't deserve to be the throne, and I can't even control my own backyard, so how can I become a Ming monarch?
However, listening to Murong Xi's meaning, his Xue'er had already been saved by Bailichen, so why did he still inquire about the origin of that woman? However, seeing a hint of chill flashing in Murong Xi's eyes, he didn't continue to ask, but took a sip of tea and talked about the things of the year leisurely.
"I still remember that year, in order to get my father's affirmation of myself, I personally went to the border of Nanzhao to spy on the news......
In fact, there is nothing peculiar about the encounter between the third prince and the step-princess, let alone any adventure. But when he was about to go to the northern frontier, he met the dying step-princess in the woods. It stands to reason that how a weak woman could suddenly appear in the mountains is incredible. The third prince can be regarded as inheriting the suspicion of the Northern Xinjiang Emperor, and he is suspicious of the woman in front of him. It's just that seeing the weak appearance of the princess made him a little unbearable, so he helped her up and leaned against the roots of the tree. When he saw the appearance of the princess, a trace of amazement flashed in his eyes.
After he gave the princess a few sips of water, the princess woke up. The first thing he said when he woke up was that the princess actually lived in a village in the mountains. The village has never been in contact with the outside world, but for some reason, everyone in the village is seriously ill, and even she can't avoid it, so she desperately wants to go down the mountain to the city to find a doctor to enter the mountain.
There was actually a doctor in the village, but because this doctor was also seriously ill, the situation in the village was so bad that she had to take her illness down the mountain.
The third prince believed her words and wanted to go to the village to have a look, but the second princess's illness could not be delayed, so he had to return to the city to treat the second princess first. The doctor took the pulse for the princess, and felt that the pulse of the princess was very strange, and he couldn't say anything. But I don't know how the doctor treated the step-princess, and the step-princess is much more energetic than just now.
For the sake of the people in the village, the princess asked the doctor to go up the mountain, but the doctor was reluctant to go into the mountain with him, because the third prince gave him more silver, and the doctor agreed.
It wasn't until he saw the village in the middle of the mountain that the third prince really believed that the mountain was really inhabited.
After entering the village, he found that the village was lifeless, and the third prince felt a little weird, but the princess ran all over the village, only to find that all the people in the village were dead.
The third prince only remembered that the doctor ran outside the village in a panic, and after only throwing down a sentence and burning the village, he ran down the mountain. The doctor didn't even ask for the consultation fee, so he ran away without a trace. The third prince listened to the doctor's words and set fire to the entire village. The princess knelt outside the village and kowtowed, and her weak face was even more pitiful.
The third prince had the idea of taking away the step-princess, the step-princess didn't want to go back with him, she was an ominous person, and the people in the village didn't know what illness she had, and none of them were alive. I don't know if it's a plague, if it's really a plague, I will be infected, and even infect others. How can such a person go home with him?
Of course, the princess fainted after crying, and when she woke up, she was already on her way back to northern Xinjiang. Along the way, the third prince took good care of her, and when the third prince saw her wake up and knew what she was most worried about, he immediately told her that he had already invited a doctor, and the doctor had already diagnosed that this girl was just because she was frightened and did not contract any strange diseases.
That's the way it was, and then I took her back to the palace, and when she arrived at the palace, her body was almost raised. What are you suspecting? The third prince asked puzzled.
Murong Xi had a headache, could it be that no matter how shrewd a person is, he will make a mistake when he sees a beauty? This step-princess obviously appeared in the mountains on purpose, I don't know if she is waiting for the third prince in the mountains, or waiting for any nobleman?
"Third Prince, before burning the village, you didn't see the people in those villages?" Murong Xi tried to ask.
She believed that the third prince was so suspicious, how could he not doubt the words of the princess at all?
So, the third prince said: "The doctor at that time suddenly ran out of the room and said that he was going to burn the village. Naturally, I was a little worried about such a serious matter, because the people in the village were sick with the epidemic. Talking to you, I also had murderous intent towards that woman at that time, after all, I was worried that she would run out of the village, and I am afraid that she would have been infected a long time ago. However, I don't know why, I never started it, and I even felt a little sorry for her. At the end, the third prince showed a very embarrassed expression.
Sure enough, Murong Xi felt that things were not so simple, I was afraid that when the princess appeared, he would give the third prince a Gu, or lower his head. Otherwise, even if this step-princess is overwhelmed by the country and the city, she will not be so fascinated by the third prince, right? If it was in northern Xinjiang, it might be better, but the third prince is working on the border of Nanzhao, how can he be so confused?
Therefore, Murong Xi remembered the strangeness of the second princess in the morning when he checked the pulse, no wonder the second princess couldn't give birth even if she was pregnant. Presumably, even if there is no Ji Limo this time, even if he takes Bailichen's tocolytic medicine, the child born to the princess will not be healthy.
"Third prince, don't you think it's strange, even if you know that she poisoned your children and your princess, although you hate her and want to kill her, you still can't bear it, right?" Murong Xi asked rhetorically.
The third prince was very strange, because what Murong Xi said was Quanzhong. It's a wonderful feeling, and for so many years, he has been doting on the step-princess. And when he knew that the second princess had assassinated the princess and wanted to harm Xue'er, he did flash a trace of murderous intent, but in fact, he was still a little reluctant in his heart, but he didn't expect Murong Xi to know this feeling.
Therefore, while being puzzled, he looked at Murong Xi.
Murong Xi shrugged his shoulders, then didn't speak, and walked in front of him, but his hand was on the wrist of the third prince. After sneering, he said: "I really got right, you were bewitched by the step-princess, so naturally you will never forget her." It seems that she is not an ordinary woman, but I am afraid that there will be no living people in the village for a long time. ”
"What do you mean?" When the third prince saw Murong Xi diagnose his pulse, he was really shocked.
"Congratulations to the third prince for falling in love with Gu more than ten years ago. You should be glad that Bei Mingxue has never attacked the step-princess, otherwise, your life would have been gone a long time ago. Murong Xi gloated.
"Zhong Gu? That woman poisoned me? The third prince said incredulously.
Murong Xi shrugged his shoulders and didn't speak.
However, the third prince looked at Murong Xi very curiously, Murong Xi actually knew how to diagnose the pulse, could it be that she could also heal and solve Gu? This Murong Xi made him a little impressed, at first he thought that Murong Xi was just a vase, but he guessed completely wrong, this girl was not a vase. No, Xue'er's plan never succeeded at all, and this girl was not rescued by Hades at all. It seems that what happened in the woods was only to ask her.
Murong Xi saw that the third prince had lost his mind, so he said, "Can't you believe it? The reason why I asked you about her origin is because she harmed Baili, who had been taking care of Bei Mingxue, in order to continue to poison Bei Yingxue. She poisoned Baili, and only she can solve this poison, so of course I have to find out where she came from. ”
The third prince knew that he was speechless, and said with some loss: "I just know so much about her. And that village has already burned down, and after all these years, I really don't know who she is. ”
In fact, after Murong Xi listened to his words, he probably guessed the origin of this woman. But what makes her most curious is how her relatives escaped from blame.
However, seeing the appearance of the third prince, she was a little unbearable, and after thinking about it, she opened her mouth and said: "The child in the princess's womb can't be kept, even if she doesn't die by herself, she won't give birth to the child smoothly." ”
Murong Xi's words, the third prince didn't react for a while, and it was easy to catch the word that the child couldn't keep in Murong Xi's words.
His eyes widened, and he asked anxiously, "What do you mean by this, she has a miscarriage?" Isn't it ...... you?"
"Hey, don't you understand what I'm saying. It was her own death, what does it have to do with us? She is always anxious in the house, and she is always thinking about how to do something to the North Styx. Do you think it's good for pregnant women? Besides, as far as her body is concerned, even if she gives birth to a child, that child will not survive. Murong Xi said disdainfully.
"Why?" After the third prince heard Murong Xi say something about Gu poison before, his intuition told him that it must have something to do with this. Still, he wanted to be sure.
"The so-called love Gu is that a couple of men and women will fall for Gu. If you fall for the love Gu, the step-princess naturally can't avoid it. And this kind of Gu poison is very hurtful to the Gu people. Moreover, it is not easy to get pregnant. Even if you are pregnant, after the fetus is formed, it will be eaten by Gu worms. Murong Xi shrugged his shoulders and didn't continue.
Come to think of it, without her being said, the third prince will also guess that even if the step-princess gives birth to a child, what will it look like? I can't imagine it.
"It's nothing, let's go first, if you think of anything, tell the dark guards, and they will inform the old man." Murong Xi turned around and pulled Feng Mingye to prepare to leave.
The third prince did not mention the step-princess again, but asked, "Is Xue'er okay?" ”
Murong Xi turned around, looked at the third prince, and said, "Well, Bei Mingxue is not in the palace now, she is with us. However, for the sake of the poison on Bai Lichen's body, the step-princess was also taken away by us. But don't worry, at least now I won't take the life of the princess. ”
Murong Xi walked outside, only to hear the voice of the third prince: "Now I don't care how long I can live, I just hope that my children can be well." ”
