Chapter 10: The Man Who Poisoned the Poisoner

The eldest prince's name is Xiao, Mr. Shuzen, 27 years old this year, living alone in Chengde Palace. Outsiders know very little about this royal concubine, only hearing that he has a pure heart and few desires, and is dedicated to the Buddha, and even the name of the family is clearly to take refuge in Buddhism. After her biological mother, Concubine Zhuang, died in infancy, she became a nun regardless of the obstacles, and the eldest prince, who was supposed to follow Concubine Zhuang, was forcibly left in the palace.

Does the eldest prince know that it was not the mother Concubine Lian who killed Concubine Zhuang's young son unjustly, but the queen Xu?

However, whether the eldest prince knows it or not, the case five years ago has already been decided, Concubine Lian has been given to death, why does the eldest prince want to poison the third prince now?

Could there be any other reason?

Lu Zhaoling knew too little about the secrets in this palace, so he could only guess in his heart.

Qiu Xi saw Lu Zhaoling's upset look, and a little regretted that she had said too much, she persuaded Lu Zhaoling: "Princess, blame the slave and maid for talking too much, maybe it has nothing to do with the eldest prince." The stakes are high, and it will definitely take some more time to investigate, so don't think about it. ”

Lu Zhaoling nodded worriedly, sighed and said, "Well, what you said is right, I can't think of any clue...... The most important thing now is Bai Heng's body. ”

Speaking of this, she looked at Shen Fengjiu: "Shen Gongzi, can I go and see him?" ”

"Tomorrow's follow-up, you can follow." Shen Fengjiu said.

"Great." Lu Zhaoling was overjoyed, and breathed a long sigh of relief in his chest, "Thank you, son." ”

"Jade, I'll throw it for you." Unexpectedly, Shen Fengjiu immediately said such a sentence.

"You ......"

At this time, the jade pendant given by the second prince was missing from the table and in Shen Fengjiu's hand, and I don't know where Shen Fengjiu hid it. Lu Zhaoling was speechless, feeling that this Shen Gongzi was really confusing and very capricious.

"Do you hate the second prince very much?" Lu Zhaoling couldn't help but ask.

However, Shen Fengjiu would never answer others honestly.

He walked up to Lu Zhaoling and stretched out his hand to press her palm.

"Give."

In Lu Zhaoling's hand is a piece of Kunshan white jade with a delicate texture, elegant and transparent, and the square jade plaque is carved with a lifelike, negative and spiritual stag.

"Why is that?" Lu Zhaoling understood the reason why Shen Fengjiu gave her the jade plate, but he still didn't quite understand this person's logic.

"Changed."

After Shen Fengjiu finished speaking, he took the peach blossom branch to pick up the burden, and without saying hello, he walked away.

Lu Zhaoling looked at the figure of the green shirt outside the window from near and far, his steps were light, like a crane, and when he walked to the courtyard gate, he glanced sideways, and looked at each other for a moment, and there seemed to be a thousand feet of peach blossom pool water in his eyes, which was bottomless.

Shen Fengjiu was not far from the Langhuan Palace, and he saw the second prince who seemed to have been waiting for a long time. He was still holding the high-grade sandalwood folding fan in his hand, and looked at Shen Fengjiu who was walking towards him with a smile, and did not speak, only the eunuch on the side said in a strange manner: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince invites Shen Fengjiu to enter the Kangning Palace to taste tea." ”

Shen Fengjiu didn't squint, and walked past Bai Xi and his party as if no one was around. Suddenly, a light breeze blew up, causing his scattered hair to pass in front of Bai Xi's eyes. He was never in a hurry under his feet, and Bai Xi did not stop him, but just turned around and watched Shen Fengjiu gradually walk away.

When the figure of the green shirt disappeared from his eyes, Bai Xi lowered his voice and asked, "How is it?" The voice of the black shadow in the Kangning Palace the day before yesterday came from the sedan chair behind him, which should have been empty, still strange and hoarse like a human voice, and said slowly: "Master." Do not get close to each other. ”

Bai Xi was not stunned, but smiled happily.

"It's funny."

--

Although he said that he would only remove the poison, Shen Fengjiu was still left in the palace by the emperor, saying that it was just in case of accidents, and he could not leave until the third prince recovered.

Shen Fengjiu was not dissatisfied so far, and lived in Yonghe Palace safely.

Early the next morning, when Lu Zhaoling arrived at Yonghe Palace, Shen Fengjiu was already waiting outside the palace.

"Can I go in and see him?" As soon as Lu Zhaoling saw Shen Fengjiu, he hurriedly asked.

"I'm sleeping." Shen Fengjiu said lightly.

"Then, don't disturb him to rest for now, I'll wait a while."

In the late autumn morning, there is a coolness in the air. Lu Zhaoling and Shen Fengjiu were relatively speechless, and they were pestled outside the hall gate like two door gods, waiting for a long time.

On this day, the Yonghe Palace is not as lively as yesterday, the huge palace looks cold and silent, and there is not even a figure for a long time. They waited outside the hall for a long time, and saw only two eunuchs and an old woman entering and leaving.

Lu Zhaoling gently inhaled his cold sour nose, and Shen Fengjiu suddenly said, "Wait in the house." Then he turned and walked towards the side hall.

Lu Zhaoling was still hesitating in place and said, "But ......" But seeing that Shen Fengjiu was walking too resolutely, he had no choice but to reluctantly follow.

"It's almost noon, why hasn't he woken up yet? Would you like to take a look? Lu Zhaoling waited in the room, restless.

"There's a royal doctor watching." Shen Fengjiu replied to her.

Lu Zhaoling was still relieved, and paced around the room meaninglessly.

Shen Fengjiu didn't care about her, and sat calmly drinking tea.

It was only after noon that a little eunuch named Tong De came to report that the third prince had finally woken up.

Lu Zhaoling couldn't wait to come to Bai Heng's bed, and after a long and bumpy day, she finally saw Bai Heng again.

Bai Heng sat on the couch, but there was still not much blood on his face.

"How are you feeling?" Lu Zhaoling's voice was as soft as possible, but it couldn't hide her anxiety.

"It's all right, Zhaoling." Bai Heng said softly, his breath still weak.

"I heard the doctor say that your poison is very dangerous, you must be in pain. You have a good rest, you must rest comfortably enough, and take care of your body......" Lu Zhaoling babbled and read, looking at Bai Heng's haggard expression, his eyes were a little sour.

"The birthday gift for you hasn't been prepared yet, and it will be delayed for a few more days." Bai Heng smiled and said softly.

"What's the matter, I don't want this birthday gift, you have a good rest, don't do anything." Lu Zhaoling said anxiously.

"Okay, I'm not going to do anything." Bai Heng reached out and touched Lu Zhaoling's fingertips.

Lu Zhaoling gently held Bai Heng's fingers.

"I have something I want to say to you alone."

Bai Heng nodded and retreated.

Lu Zhaoling told Bai Heng about meeting General Li Xuan yesterday.

"General Li said that someone in the palace already knew about our actions, and then you were poisoned, I always feel that there is some connection between this, do you have any clue?" Lu Zhaoling asked.

Bai Heng thought for a while and shook his head.

"You were poisoned the night before?" Lu Zhaoling asked again.

"Hmm. The man was so secretive that I didn't notice the source of the poison. ”

"Who is trying to harm you? I don't know if I'll do it to you again in the future. Lu Zhaoling was restless.

"I'll be careful." Bai Heng replied solemnly.
