Chapter 191: The Death of a Poppy

When Ye Xun heard Zhang Heng's words, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but it was only for a moment, and he disappeared quickly.

Mu Qingyan saw this scene in her eyes, and her head slowly began to turn......

"Master!"

Suddenly, Shao Dong's voice sounded outside the door, interrupting Mu Qingyan's contemplation.

"Come in!"

"Yes!"

Shao Dong walked in from outside, bowed and saluted: "Master!"

"Well, let's get started!"

Shao Dong received the order, looked at Xiang'er who was kneeling on the ground, and said expressionlessly: "Back to the master, the person Xiang'er said is indeed something, and several maids and attendants saw the scene of Xiang'er being hit that day. However, that attendant is not what Xiang'er said she can't see, but that attendant is Lu Cong, the attendant of the poppy beauty of Spring Garden. Xiang'er has a personal affair with him and has made a private agreement for life. ”

As soon as these words came out, Mu Qingyan instantly raised her eyes, and looked back and forth at Ye Xun who was standing below, kneeling on the ground Xiang'er.

Ye Xun's expression was still very calm, but Xiang'er, who was kneeling on the ground and surrendered, could no longer hide her face, and her expression began to become frightened and panicked.

"Yu Meiren seems to have known that the old slave will find Lu Cong, and committed suicide by taking poison. Lu Cong confessed that because he was found out by Yu Meiren and had an affair with Xiang'er, he threatened the two of them and asked for the lives of his family, so he could only obey Yu Meiren's orders in order to survive. The poppy tried to harm the princess with Xiang'er's hand, but fortunately, the princess escaped!"

Shao Dong raised his eyes as he spoke, and said to Mu Qingyan: "Just now Xiang'er said that the medicine was given by an unknown attendant, which is a half-fabricated thing. Because Lu Cong told Xiang'er that as long as she confessed her guilt to the prince and the princess like this, she would definitely wait for lenient treatment with a sincere attitude. After Xiang'er atoned for her sins, Lu Cong promised to marry her alone. ”

Mu Qingyan listened, looked at Xiang'er kneeling at the bottom with an ugly face, and couldn't understand where Xiang'er thought that she and King's Landing would tolerate someone who wanted to poison her?

Is it because the blood lesson of Meilan Zhuju is not enough? Or, recently, the ruthlessness of the four princes is gone, or has he become gentle, and he is full of love for the world?

Can you give courage, Xiang'er believes in the squire Lu Cong's so-called promise of love?

This time, Mu Qingyan was really laughed at, how could anyone be stupid like this?

It deserves to be used to block the gun, and I'm really sorry for Xiang'er's IQ if I don't use Xiang'er!

"Xiang'er!"

"Slave...... The slave is here!"

"Do you really believe what Lu Cong said?"

When Xiang'er heard this, she trembled, and replied with a crying voice: "The slave is already his person, and the slave can only believe him...... Princess, please spare him!"

"Because of this, you are willing to pay the price of your own life in exchange for a promise that I don't know if it will succeed?" Mu Qingyan suddenly felt so funny, losing her virginity in Xiang'er's mouth became no way out.

However, she can understand Xiang'er's thoughts, even in modern civilization, there are many women who would rather give up their lives for chastity, so in this ancient place, it is understandable that Xiang'er chose to do this.

Xiang'er gave her chastity to Lu Cong, so Xiang'er felt that she was Lu Cong's person, and she was willing to take risks for the sake of her lover.

Looking at Xiang'er, she is only seventeen or eighteen years old......

It's always the ignorant and innocent girl who gets hurt, at this age, in that civilized era, but it's still a little daughter lying in her mother's arms, but here......

Suddenly, sadness rose from my heart, and I felt sad inexplicably!

Mu Qingyan opened her mouth and said lightly: "Life is better than everything, and whose life is also precious." "Don't give it to anyone!

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Mu Qingyan in shock.

King's Landing's eyes didn't move, only the streamer flickered.

"Princess ......" originally did not cry Xiang'er, but at this moment, she burst into tears.

"If you do something wrong, you will have to pay the price, I have never been a merciful person, and I don't have much heart to tolerate people who want my life. After a pause, Mu Qingyan's eyes glanced at Xiang'er lightly, and said, "Steward Shao, deal with this as you want!"

"Yes, Princess!" Shao Dong retracted his surprised gaze and bowed down.

"Returning to the master, the princess, Lu Cong pushed all the wrongs on Yu Mei and Xiang'er, and they were all forced by the two of them. Moreover, after Lu Cong and Xiang'er were together, he hooked up with a lot of maids in the backyard, and he was also in such a deep relationship. For him to say that he would wait for Xiang'er to be punished by the master and the princess, and then wait for Xiang'er, and only marry Xiang'er in the future, it is not true at all. Therefore, Lu Cong, who is maintained by Xiang'er, is not worth it at all. On the contrary, Lu Cong not only did not have the heart to protect Xiang'er, but also had the heart that if it was the master, the princess would stay in Xiang'er's life, and Lu Cong would buy the poison, and when the time came, he would poison Xiang'er. Shao Dong said, presenting the poison that Lu Cong had found in front of King's Landing.

Mu Qingyan took the bottle, opened the lid, and looked at it lightly, frowning, this is a poison that seals the throat with a sword!

"It's really heartfelt, this medicine at least makes your death not painful!"

"No, how can it be like this......" Xiang'er's expression was full of hesitation, helplessness and regret.

"As for what she said just now, there are relatives in the family who are seriously ill, this matter is completely false, it is all fabricated, and these statements are also prepared by Lu Cong for Xiang'er!"

"And now, Lu Cong still said to the old slave that all this was Xiang'er's greed for wealth and wealth, forcing him to obey the poppy, and asking the old slave to ask the master to kill Xiang'er immediately!" Shao Dong looked at Xiang'er, who was already paralyzed on the ground, and said coldly.

"At this time, do you still want to defend him?" Mu Qingyan asked lightly.

Sometimes, I really can't understand the so-called love in the mouths of these people?

Every time she sees these women who are willing to die for love and for a man's words, she really can't help but want to grab it and shake it hard.

Excuse me, are you fucking sick in the head?

Of the various corpses she had seen, what angered her the most was seeing the young women punish themselves for their own deaths for the mistakes of men, some jumped off buildings, some cut their wrists, some took poison, and some jumped into the river......

Some of them are taking innocent children and innocent lives to pay for her wrong ideas, so she is angry in the face of such a fragrant child!

"Slave maid...... Slaves...... I don't know...... "Xiang'er, lying on the ground and crying silently.

"Drag it off!"

King's Landing's faint words determined the outcome of Xiang'er's future.

"Yes!" Shao Dong immediately responded, and then asked the guards outside to drag Xiang'er down.

King's Landing lightly glanced at Ye Xun, who was still standing below, turned his eyes to look at Shao Dong on the side, and said, "Continue to talk about the follow-up." ”

"Yes, master!" Shao Dong immediately responded, saying, "The laxative that Lu Cong said to Xiang'er is actually not a laxative but a poison, which is the same as the poison just presented. What the poppy wanted was not to make the princess look ugly, but to take the princess's life. Because, if the princess has an accident in the prince's mansion, the prince, the queen, and even the emperor will immediately dispose of the princess's body when the prince is not in the capital, saying that the princess died of a sudden illness. When the time comes, there is no proof of death, then, the poppy's plan will be successful, so she will choose to drug the princess when she goes to the prince's mansion. ”

When Mu Qingyan heard this, she said lightly: "It's a pity that the poppies are all dead now, and they died in such a timely manner, so they have cut off the clues to continue the investigation." ”

"Poppy is so bold and damned, she dared to murder the princess, in the past, the concubine in the backyard did not think that the poppy was such a ruthless person, it turned out that she was hiding too deeply. It really makes the concubine's body creepy, and the backyard of the palace still knows how many people have such harmful hearts, and please prince, the princess must thoroughly investigate the backyard to correct the atmosphere!" Ye Xun suddenly opened his mouth and picked up Mu Qingyan's words.

When these words fell, there was silence in the room!

However, Ye Xun still looked respectful, still bowing his head and lowering his eyes, and the look on his face was still not clear.

Mu Qingyan's eyes had a dark color, but her eyes and face were very calm.

After a little silence, Shao Dong received King's Landing's gaze, turned his head to look at Ye Xun, and said, "As for Concubine Ye, ......"

As soon as these words came out, in an instant, Ye Xun's body moved, very slightly, and then regained his calm.

"Yu Mei especially liked to invite people from other backyards to get together before her death, Concubine Ye has also been to the courtyard of the poppy, I don't know if Concubine Ye is so smart has seen that the poppy beauty has such an abnormality?"

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan's eyes tightened slightly, what role did Ye Xun play in this?

"Steward Shao, your question is too strange, how can I see what Yu Meiren wants to do? If so, I already knew, how could I let her plan to poison the princess like this!" Ye Xun said.

This is not wrong, and it has to be said with thorns, but it makes people feel that Ye Xun is eager to shirk something.

At the beginning, when she was in the Prince's Mansion, Ye Xun was not in a state of existence at all, and she didn't hear an exclamation or a slight movement from beginning to end.

This is a very strange existence in itself, and now, Ye Xun suddenly came here and said that he wanted to ask for sin.

It seems to be the same thing, and at this time, Shao Dong happened to find out about the poppy again, and even caught accomplices like Lu Cong and Xiang'er.

The two seem to be unrelated, but they inexplicably make people feel that they are inextricably linked, but there is no evidence to prove that Ye Xun knows or ...... Participate!

Then, there is also a possibility that Ye Xun came to accuse himself, that is, he wanted to personally determine whether Shao Dong had found any useful information from Yu Meiren?

If so, her guess is right, then Ye Xun is really desperate!

It's a pity that the poppy is dead, and there is no proof of death, and now we can only see if Shao Dong can find any clues!

She always felt that losing was not so simple, and that there was more to her intuition than that......

From this point of view, the backyard of the Four Kings Mansion is really a huge hidden danger for her!

"How did Steward Shao determine that it was a poppy?"

As soon as Mu Qingyan's words came out, King's Landing glanced at her.

Shao Dong and Zhang Heng glanced at each other, with a smile in their eyes, and the smile was full of helplessness.

When the woman in the backyard encounters such a thing, she shouldn't have scolded the poppy beauty for her viciousness for the first time, and asked the prince to clear the hidden dangers in the backyard.

This is the best opportunity, and it is also the most suitable opportunity to gag others' mouths, so that no one will say that she is jealous and that she can't tolerate people. Then, she can get the exclusive favor of the prince, this is the right thing to do!

It's a pity that Mu Qingyan is full of thoughts about what Yu Meiren is doing, how to do that, and how she found out!

Mu Qingyan revealed that she was more concerned about the process of investigating the case!

God knows, their princess is so awesome, she can talk about the process of searching so calmly and calmly, instead of being afraid to seek comfort.

At this time, the most she should do is to lie in the arms of the prince and seek protection!

Now, the concentration of contemplative research to figure everything out is too unexpected, and I have to admire!

There are really few women in the world who can do what Mu Qingyan does, who is bold and careful, determined, and knows what she wants and doesn't want.

This is such fortitude, a woman who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, I am afraid that it is easy to break......

I hope it won't happen, and he doesn't want it to happen!" Shao Dong secretly thought in his heart.

"Back to the princess, because of the thief's weak heart, the old slave heard that the old slave sent someone to search the backyard and took poison, and when the maid found out and came to tell the old slave, the old slave found a clue from the courtyard of the poppy. I thought it was strange, I didn't know if I didn't check, but I found out such an amazing thing when I checked it. The old slave asked people to start a check from the courtyard of the poppy beauty, and found that there was poison hidden in Lu Cong's room and a large number of women's belly pockets. arrested Lu Cong for interrogation, and then, when he happened to meet Xiang'er, who had not received the news, he brought Xiang'er to the master and the princess, wanting to hear what she would say. ”

After a pause, Shao Dong continued: "The old slave compared these things, and someone checked the family background of Xiang'er and Lu Cong, and both of them signed a living deed. And he found out what was going on with them, so that he could know at once whether they were telling the truth or not. Yu Meiren always knew that Lu Cong and Xiang'er had a personal affair, and the two were unscrupulous, and Lu Cong never had substantive actions against Xiang'er. Therefore, he used money and promises to successfully help Xiang'er marry Lu Cong as a temptation to kill the princess, and it was easy to get the favor of the master!"

Therefore, Skynet is magnificent but not leaky, and what has been done will leave traces, and if there are traces to follow, it will be exposed sooner or later.

"Why did the poppy want to poison me?" asked Mu Qingyan.

The women in the Four Princes' Mansion really can't live without any means, but these means are not worth mentioning in the eyes of the Four Princes, and Shao Dong, the housekeeper of the Four Princes' Mansion, knows it even more, so he can find out so much from where Yu Meiren committed suicide.

Shao Dong glanced at Ye Xun, whose face began to turn pale, and said with a faint expression: "The reason why she wants to poison the princess ......"

"For the time being, it can only be classified as a competition for favor!"

Yu Meiren probably didn't expect that Mu Qingyan would be able to come back alive and unharmed, let alone that the prince would give an order to search the backyard after he came back.

If everything is as designed by Yu Meiren, then Mu Qingyan is really going to die.

If the master does not order a thorough investigation after returning home, such a thing will not be found out, and the poppy will not have to commit suicide.

However, all this happened too coincidentally, and people had to think twice. Also, did the poppies really set up such a terrifying scheme to compete for favor?

Such thoughts have been haunting Shao Dong's head, and he always feels that the death of the poppy is trying to hide something......

"Do you know when she died?" Mu Qingyan frowned, there was no one else in her eyes, she was full of thoughts.

King's Landing looked sideways, glanced at her, and didn't speak.

Shao Dong replied: "It is estimated that he will be dead within two hours, if the old slave has not guessed wrong." ”

"Send it back to her home!" Mu Qingyan listened, didn't say much, just gave a faint order.

People die like lights go out, some things are buried under the loess, and the woman in the backyard is also a poor person!

"It's the princess, it's just that Yu Meiren doesn't have a mother's family, she is ......" Shao Dong said and glanced at King's Landing, and paused.

Mu Qingyan was puzzled, how Shao Dong could speak, and asked, "What is she?"

"Say!" King's Landing spat out a faint word.

Shao Dong whispered and said: "Yu Meiren is a beauty given to her master by the Queen Mother, but the master has never favored her. Just let her dance a few times......"

"Oh!" Mu Qingyan responded very flatly, and then continued to fall into her own thoughts.

Shao Dong smiled bitterly, at this time, shouldn't the princess be jealous? On the contrary, the master who should not be unhappy is now gloomy.

"Just one word, don't you have anything else to say?"

"Yes!" Mu Qingyan looked at King's Landing solemnly and replied.

King's Landing's face cleared a little cloud, and he asked softly, "What else do you want to say?"

Mu Qingyan said very seriously: "In this way, under the search of Steward Shao, Yu Meiren knew in advance what Steward Shao was searching for in the backyard, and besides, taking poison was also a poison prepared in advance to seal the throat with a sword. That means that she had thought of two outcomes in advance. It's just that she poisoned me, and she can't dominate the family, so it's too weak to poison me for the reason of competing for favor. Besides, since I became this princess, I have never mistreated all the concubines in the backyard, and she has never been treated with good food and drink, and her reasons are not enough for her to give up her life. ”

"She is a person with desires, people with desires will not easily seek death, and human instinct, when people are desperate, the more they want to survive, or more after hesitating and anxiety for a period of time before committing suicide, rather than committing suicide all at once. There are very few people who have a life that does not hesitate to die at once!"

Shao Dong listened, glanced at King's Landing, his eyes were full of shock, and he said with a frown: "What the princess means is that the poppy is very likely to be murdered!"

Although he had thought about all of this, he was only limited to intuition, and the shock of being methodical, rooted and said to come out like Mu Qingyan was different.

"There is this possibility, but unfortunately, the poppy is already dead......"

At this time, Ye Xun began to stagger, bowed down and said, "Lord, princess, the concubine feels dizzy and dizzy......"

Mu Qingyan was slightly stunned, and then looked at King's Landing.

"Stand down!" King's Landing said lightly without raising his eyes.

"Yes, the concubine is retiring!" Ye Xun's face seemed to be even paler.

Mu Qingyan looked at Ye Xun as if she was about to fall, stepped on small broken steps, and left, until the beautiful back that disappeared was gone, and she was still staring outside.

"What's there to see out there?" King Lin glared at Mu Qingyan coldly, and said coldly.

"I don't think the beauty is like a willow, how beautiful it is!"

It's a pity that King's Landing married the beauty back but put it in the backyard to grow mushrooms, and even Ye Xun didn't get a single glance from King's Landing when he looked like he was about to faint.

"It's rare that you have the self-knowledge to know that you are walking gracefully!" King's Landing said directly.

"Lord Wang, you really don't understand the amorous style, each has its own good! There are so many flowers in the back flower courtyard, who can tell which one of the flowers inside is the most beautiful!" Mu Qingyan said with a smile.

"This king can!" said King's Landing, staring straight at her.

"Yes, yes, yes! What the prince said is!" said the important thing three times, Mu Qingyan replied with a smile, like coaxing a child.

"Don't you ask the king who he thinks is the most beautiful?" asked King's Landing, considering her acquaintance.

"Do you need to ask, of course it's me!" Mu Qingyan said very naturally.

King's Landing smiled and said, "What a thick skin!"

"It's better to be thicker, it's good to be thicker to keep out the wind and rain!" Mu Qingyan also replied with a smile.

"Only interjecting jokes and mixing ......"

"Master, do you like ......it?"

Inside the house is a loving conversation between husband and wife, but outside the house, Ye Xun is walking alone on the road in the backyard.

Ye Xun hung her head, her face was pale and tense, she didn't expect that the foolproof plan was solved by Mu Qingyan, and she also asked Shao Dong Shun Teng to find out the poppy beauty.

If not, she would be alert so fast...... The consequences are unimaginable......

She never thought that after the fourth prince came back, he would let Shao Dong check the backyard of the palace, let alone that Lu Cong would be so stupid and fall into Shao Dong's hands.

The poppies will be exposed, not because of bad luck, but because they don't know enough about the four princes.

Moreover, the things in the prince's mansion, Mu Qingyan's super control ability was even more eye-opening and shocking.

I thought that Mu Qingyan was just a straw bag, and she would be frightened by the tragedy in the Prince's Mansion, but she didn't expect that Mu Qingyan would be able to conduct an autopsy and investigate the case......

"Concubine Fang, how are you? Otherwise, the slave maid will go and ask for a doctor...... "The maid who was holding Ye Xun looked at Ye Xun's frightening pale face, and said softly.

Ye Xun just walked, lowered his eyes, and didn't speak!

recalled the prince's attitude towards Mu Qingyan......

Ye Xun's eyes were even darker like night......

"Master, princess, Concubine Ye has returned to her courtyard. ”

Shao Dong listened to the attendant's reply outside the door and immediately prayed.

King's Landing listened, his expression pale and he didn't speak.

Mu Qingyan listened, supported her chin with her little hands, and muttered: "Concubine Ye's reaction to Yu Meiren's death seems to be a bit big!"

When King's Landing heard this, a tear flashed in his eyes......
