Chapter 302: The Real Murderer Behind the Scenes
Xia Sihan looked up and saw that Beichen Moran's face was pale, Murong Xue was also pale, and Mo Xuan's face was even more pale. Although Lord Xuefei is not the person he likes, after all, it is his wedding day, and it is strange that his face can be good-looking when this kind of thing happens.
"The Imperial Doctor is here!"
Xia Sihan looked over, and the gray-bearded old lady doctor came over, saw the picture lying on the ground, and hurriedly went over to check his pulse.
"How's it going?"
Beichen Mo Ran asked eagerly, and the old lady pondered for a moment before replying: "Emperor Qi, Lord Natu died of poisoning, and the poison should be smeared on the wine glass." This poison is the poison of the wolf flower unique to the Chu State, and the throat is sealed with blood. โ
As soon as the Imperial Doctor's words were finished, everyone was shocked! The wolf flower is a poisonous flower that only exists in the palace, and it was extinct twenty years ago, why did it appear again today?
Beichen Mo Ran clenched his fists, and there was a fierceness in his eyes, "Those who can touch the wine glass will stay, and the suspicious person will be killed!" โ
"Yes!"
The guards immediately went out, screaming all over the room for a while, but Natu's family was unwilling.
"Your Majesty, this matter is very strange. As soon as Natu said that she wanted to let the woman of Murong Kingdom dance, she was poisoned to death, I think she did it! โ
"Yes, that's her!"
Xia Sihan only thought it was funny, no wonder the picture was gone so quickly, the family was all brainless idiots!
Beichen Mo Ran also felt that this matter was too far-fetched, and said with a gloomy face: "Don't stir up disputes between the two countries, no one can be poisoned without evidence!" โ
"You suspect that it is Mrs. Li, but she is a guest invited by the king and the princess, isn't she poisoned by the king? For whom do you spoil the king's joy and offend the king's guests? โ
Mo Xuan stood up, Xia Sihan was not surprised at all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Natu's family had bad intentions.
"King Xuan protects this woman so much, could it be ยทยทยทยทยทยท, I heard that you had a close relationship with her when you were in Murong Kingdom, presumably this is true!"
Xia Sihan couldn't listen to it anymore, and said loudly: "According to what you say, the emperor and Concubine Rong also have close contacts with me, and Concubine Rong also gave me the jade plate that entered and exited the palace, so this matter should be instigated by Concubine Rong?" โ
"You!"
The man was speechless, but Murong Xue and Beichen's faces were very ugly.
"Alright, don't talk about it again! Today's wedding of King Xuan, if this kind of thing happens, I will definitely investigate it to the end. King Xuan, since what happened in your house, you should bear all the responsibility. This matter will be handed over to you to deal with, and the murderer will be found within ten days, and if anyone dares to resist, he will not be spared! โ
Mo Xuan bowed down and agreed, "Brother obeys!"
Mo Xuan waved his hand, and someone immediately moved Natu's body away. Things went so far that the guests couldn't sit still. Beichen was the first to leave, and everyone followed suit.
After they all left, Xia Sihan and Luoluo left last.
"Luoluo, what is a wolf flower?" Xia Sihan was very curious, she had been in Chu for so long, and she didn't seem to have heard of this name.
Luo Luo pouted and said: "I once heard the old man in the house say that this wolf flower is a strange flower, which only blooms in cold and damp places. When it blooms, it is fragrant, but after the flowers fall, it is highly poisonous, and when it rots on the ground, whatever is planted in that field will die. I heard that the only place where there are wolf flowers in our Chu country is that it appeared in a cold palace courtyard in the palace, and was later discovered by the first emperor, and he was afraid that he would be used by someone with a heart, so he ordered a fire to burn it all. I didn't expect it to appear again today, don't you think it's strange? โ
"It's not strange to say this, if someone has already stored the seeds of the wolf flower, or made the venom before the wolf flower is destroyed, it can be taken out and used at any time. Thinking about it this way, the person who poisoned must be someone who is extremely familiar with the poison of the wolf flower, and this person has a deep and vicious mind, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to find out. โ
Xia Sihan said in a deep voice, and Luoluo only listened silently. If you want to say that Natu was killed, it will be sooner or later, who told him to do all the hurtful things on weekdays, and the number of people who want to kill him is countless. Is it really strange that he died under the poison of the wolf flower, or did the murderer not think of killing him at all, just randomly?
Thinking of this, Xia Sihan took a deep breath and glanced back at the gate of the palace. The big red silk still hung on the door, but inside it was a depression.
"Mrs. Li, our mother is invited." Xia Sihan was about to get into the carriage when someone blocked the way.
Xia Sihan recognized that this was the palace maid who came to send the jade pendant last time. She nodded, and followed the palace maid to Murong Xue's carriage.
"Niangniang, the young lady has arrived."
Xia Sihan curtsied, "I've seen Concubine Rong." โ
Murong Xue's voice came from the carriage, which faded away the shyness of the princess, and now Concubine Rong spoke with a lofty posture, which was also in line with her identity.
"Young Lady Li is so cunning, I didn't expect that the jade pendant you gave you would become your talisman."
"Niangniang has been thinking about this for a long time, hasn't she? If you give it out, it will definitely cause people to speculate, rather than the two of us going our separate ways, it is better to stay warm. If it weren't for the fact that Niangniang was pregnant with a dragonborn today, she would inevitably be treated as a dancing girl and dance in public without sleeping? Or are you willing to be their plaything? โ
Murong Xue sat in the carriage and clenched her fists tightly, her fingers turned white, and she said after a while: "You are right, but since this palace has entered the Chu State, it is a person from the Chu State, and they humiliate the palace to humiliate the emperor." โ
"Since Niangniang has so much confidence in the emperor, why did she call me?"
Xia Sihan asked her rhetorically, Murong Xue was stunned, and her voice suddenly raised: "Xia Sihan, don't think that you can be disrespectful to this palace with the support of King Xuan!" Do you believe it or not, it will be easy for this palace to deal with you? โ
"Of course I believe it, but I also know that the most dangerous person is now that the mother is pregnant with a dragonborn. Naturally, the mother knew what I meant, and the woman retired. โ
Without waiting for Murong Xue to speak, Xia Sihan took the lead in leaving. Murong Xueqi's face was pale, and she held her lower abdomen for a while.
Of course, Murong Xue knew the meaning of Xia Sihan's words, and she also knew that the most dangerous person now was actually herself. How many pairs of eyes in the harem looked at her, and now that she is pregnant, it is even more difficult to move an inch. If it weren't for the concubine's embarrassment today, she would have come a long time ago.
Xia Sihan saw through her careful thinking at a glance, and if she wanted to stand up, she should see the situation clearly. She raised her feet to get into the car, but saw Xiao Jiu with an embarrassed face, Xia Sihan raised her eyebrows, and after entering, she found out why Xiao Jiu was like this, Yang Qingze was sitting in the car and smirking at her.
Xia Sihan's anger surged up all of a sudden, "Yang Qingze, are you looking for death!" โ
Yang Qingze stretched out a finger to his mouth, and at the same time took out a bead flower from his arms and handed it to her.
"What do you mean!"
"Someone gave it to me, I have to bring it to someone, otherwise I won't enter the house!"
Xia Sihan stretched out his hand to take it, and then asked, "Who is the matter of Natu?" โ
"Let's go back and talk about it!"
