Chapter 53: Paying for Life
This change made everyone on the viewing platform stunned for a long time, and even the eldest princess was stunned for a moment before reacting.
"Quick, go and get the doctor who came with you!" After coming back to her senses, the eldest princess hurriedly commanded.
"Go and carry Lord Ruolin to the guest house in the backyard, and then bring the people in the arena to Meilan Garden."
"Yes."
"Oh my God, how could Lord Ruolin suddenly fall down, just now I saw that she was fine when she didn't go to her sister's side."
"Concubine Lin is saying, Lord Ruolin didn't talk nonsense just now, yes, it was the third imperial concubine who really poisoned her?!"
"It's just a joking game, why should the three princesses be so serious!"
As soon as Lin Ziyu's words were finished, some people who wanted to take the opportunity to belittle Lin Mumu responded.
"You talk nonsense!"
When Zhao Hanjun was displeased, but did not argue for Lin Mumu, Zhao Rufei, who heard this, stood up angrily and scolded the young ladies who spoke.
Those young ladies saw Zhao Rufei's handsome appearance, and sat next to Zhao Hanjun, they knew his identity as soon as they guessed, and they didn't dare to say anything for a while, they only blushed and lowered their heads.
"Fifth brother, this matter must have nothing to do with the third emperor's sister-in-law." Zhao Rufei snorted with his nose and hurriedly looked for his ally.
Before this matter is conclusive, Zhao Muyu will not draw conclusions in front of so many people, after all, he is different from Zhao Rufei, who is not familiar with the world.
"Yes, the third princess, Ken, definitely not, I won't poison Lord Ruolin!"
Ying and Zhao Rufei, who didn't get Zhao Muyu, were a little unhappy, and they didn't want to suddenly make a cowardly voice at this time.
Zhao Rufei glanced at the man curiously, and nodded affirmatively at her. "Yes, you're right."
Huang Li'er didn't expect Zhao Rufei to talk to her, and her neck turned red with shame for a while, and she lowered her head like a quail and couldn't even speak.
"Third Emperor Sister-in-law, are you okay?"
Zhao Rufei didn't know when he had run to Lin Mumu's side.
The people sent by the eldest princess had already lifted Hu Xiyue up from the ground.
Lin Mumu looked at the concern in his eyes and smiled. "I'm fine."
"The third imperial sister-in-law is fine."
"Third Imperial Princess, the eldest princess invites the Third Imperial Concubine to the backyard."
When Hu Xiyue fell to the ground, the only person closest to her was Lin Mumu, Lin Mumu nodded, and followed the maid to the backyard.
The imperial doctor has already rushed to see Hu Xiyue.
"Imperial Doctor, what the hell is wrong with Lord Ruolin?" Seeing the imperial doctor stand up, the eldest princess asked.
"Back to the eldest princess, Ruolin County Lord is highly poisoned, and the situation is very critical, but fortunately, the subordinate official happened to know this poison, and the subordinate prescribed a prescription to detoxify the county lord."
"Poisoned ......" The eldest princess's delicate brows furrowed, but after listening to the imperial doctor say that the poison can be solved, in the end she exhaled, after all, the person had an accident at the summer festival she held, and she would also be responsible for poor supervision after being investigated.
"Then there's Dr. Lao."
"The lower officials don't dare."
The imperial doctor immediately prescribed a prescription for the maid to go down and boil the medicine.
The young ladies who participated in the competition, including Lin Mumu, were all taken to a courtyard, and the subordinates asked them to stay in the house, and they didn't say anything, but they didn't let them out of the house, and some of the timid ones were already choked up and cried.
"The county lord was fine when he came on the field, why did he suddenly fall."
"I, I saw it just now, I saw the appearance of the county lord, I saw that her face was dark, and she vomited blood, no, it wouldn't be that she was going to die!"
"I, I see, look at the book, the county lord, the county lord, this should be poisoned!"
"Poisoned ......"
The voices in the room stopped abruptly, and they all looked towards Lin Mumu.
Lin Mumu, who was sitting on the chair, took a shallow sip of the teacup, ignoring the eyes that looked at her.
"The eldest princess has arrived."
After an eerie silence, there was a movement outside the door, and everyone in the room stood up in fear.
The door was pushed open, and the eldest princess stepped in.
"See the eldest princess."
After the eldest princess walked to her seat and sat down, she did not let them get up, and her eyes swept over them calmly but with a sharp energy.
"Today was originally a happy day, but I didn't want to say such a thing, this palace thinks you have also guessed in your heart, Ruolin County Lord has been poisoned."
"The county lord is really poisoned."
"Yes, who did ......it?"
The eldest princess's gaze swept over them one by one, and finally fell on Lin Mumu, whose face was as calm as water.
Everyone did not forget that at the end of the first game, the county lord Ruolin shouted that Lin Mumu drugged her, and at that time, the eldest princess thought that the county lord Ruolin was making trouble unreasonably, so she didn't think about it......
Feeling the eldest princess's gaze, Lin Mumu slowly raised her eyes and met her scrutinizing eyes.
"Eldest princess, I don't know what poison the lord of Ruolin has been poisoned in?"
"The Imperial Doctor said it was a kind of snake poison."
The flat-headed snake is also a type of pit viper.
No matter how much or how little this snake venom is, as long as the poisoned person is in a static state all the time after poisoning, it can last for at least ten hours without poisoning.
However, if the poisoned person performs strenuous exercise after poisoning, the toxin will flow quickly in the blood, directly hitting the heart, causing the poisoned person to die of heart failure, and the whole process will not take more than half an hour.
The eldest princess saw that Lin Mumu was no longer silent, her eyes sank and she said: "If this palace is not mistaken, at the end of the first game, the lord of Ruolin said that the third princess you poisoned her, and it was also the negligence of the palace, and there was no strict investigation at that time, the third princess, the palace hopes that you can give the palace an explanation." ”
"Maybe the eldest princess doesn't know, the flat-headed snake venom can only be retained in liquid form, I mean, this poison is watery, although I have frequent physical contact with the Lord of Ruolin during the game, but I have no possibility of bringing this poison to the field at all."
Liquid poison must be contained in a container, but everyone who participates in the game will have a maid to search their body before they go on the field, and there is no possibility of carrying bottles and cans on their bodies.
The people who were sent to search her body were all the people of the eldest princess, and the princess had already asked when she came over, and there was indeed nothing suspicious about Lin Mumu when she came on the field.
"I wonder what Lord Ruolin ate at halftime after the first game?"
Judging from the poisonous conditions of the flat-headed snake, Hu Xiyue may only have been poisoned during halftime, otherwise she would have been poisoned during the first strenuous exercise and would not have waited for the second game.
"I, I remember, there was a maid who brought a bowl of lotus seed soup to the county lord when he was resting, and the county lord ate all the lotus seed soup." A round-faced young lady spoke.
"Yes, yes, I saw it too."
There is a lot of food prepared in the villa, and it is not strange to have a maid to bring food in during the break.
"Go and call all the maids in the villa." The eldest princess commanded.
"Yes."
The stakes were so high that no one dared to slack off, and the maid in the villa was soon called over and stood in half of the courtyard.
"Go and see who the person who gave the county lord lotus seed soup at that time."
When the two young ladies heard this, they walked up to the maids and identified them one by one.
But the two looked around, but found that there was no figure of the maid in it at all.
"The eldest princess, the little girl didn't find the maid."
"Little girl, little girl didn't see it."
The eldest princess's face sank. "Have you brought all the maids from the villa?"
The housekeeper's grandmother hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Back to the eldest princess, all the maids have been brought over." ”
The eldest princess turned to the two again. "Have you all taken a closer look?"
The two looked at each other and nodded very affirmatively. "Look closely." In order to make sure there were no mistakes or omissions, they all read it several times.
"It's not a small amount of courage, and you dare to play tricks in front of this palace!" The eldest princess's face sank, obviously angry.
"All the entrances and exits in the villa are guarded by the main palace, and no one is allowed to leave without the order of the main palace!"
"Yes."
"Eldest princess, the king of Nanyang and the princess of Nanyang have arrived!"
It has been some time since the accident, and it is not surprising that the Nanyang Royal Mansion rushed over after receiving the news.
"Invite someone to the main courtyard."
"Yes."
After the eldest princess explained, she only let people look at Lin Mumu and them, and then left.
"You say, who will poison Lord Ruolin?"
"I don't know...... It wasn't long after the lord of Ruolin County returned to Xijing, and the only one who had a holiday with her was ...... "The third princess, the young lady peeked at Lin Mumu in the back, and didn't dare to say it blatantly.
Lin Mumu put his hands around his chest, Hu Xiyue's poisoning was full of strangeness, this poisoned person seemed to want Hu Xiyue's life, but it didn't seem to be, after all, the poison of the flat-headed snake was much more common than Zhao Rufei's poisoned snake venom before.
Even if it is poisonous, if you can take the antidote within a certain period of time, it will not pose a threat to the life of the poisoned person.
Then why did the people behind it poison it?
Lin Mumu lowered her eyes and looked at the shoes on her feet, which had been slightly stained.
If the other party just wants to blame her, and simply wants to see her unlucky, then I have to say that his strategy is too substandard.
"Lin Mumu, you come out to this king, God gave you such a big courage to dare to poison Yue'er, this king doesn't care what your identity is, I will let you pay for Yue'er's life today!"
The eldest princess didn't leave for long, and the angry scolding of the King of Nanyang sounded outside Meilan Garden.
The ladies in the courtyard trembled with fright.
"Bang!" With a bang, the courtyard door was violently kicked open, and the angry King of Nanyang walked in violently, his eyes swept through the crowd, and after falling on Lin Mumu, he rushed towards her without hesitation.
Lin Mumu frowned, took a silver hairpin from his head and held it in the palm of his hand and looked at him vigilantly.
"Lin Mumu, this king is going to kill you today!"
King Nanyang's fist was the size of half of Lin Mumu's face, his fists were clenched, his fingertips were white, and his windy fist smashed towards Lin Mumu's face!
"Ahh
"Three Imperial Princesses be careful!"
A pale yellow figure suddenly rushed out and stopped in front of Lin Mumu.
"Ahh
