Chapter 44: Poisoned
I saw that Mingyue Ke saw through the layers of veils, only to see that under the layers of moonlight, the man took off his shirt, and there were more scars and scars behind him.
Why didn't he let her help him with the medicine just now? Does he still care about the difference between men and women? But back in the time of the post station in Hakuba, what the two of them had done at that time was already very excessive.
At this time, Mingyue Ke could only watch secretly, this is the helplessness of this era, she is the identity of the future princess after all, and she is destined to keep a good distance from him.
Xiao Shaojun refused to let Mingyue Ke personally come to give him medicine, so naturally he also had a ghost in his heart.
He naturally knew that those of them who were doctors must have a very good understanding of their patients' physical conditions.
Xiao Shaojun was afraid that Mingyue Ke would find out about pretending to be the eighth brother if she got too close, obviously, she couldn't let her know about it yet.
So this is the main reason why after Mingyueke went to bed and fell asleep, Xiao Shaojun dared to pick up the white porcelain bottle and start the medicine.
At the same time, Xiao Shaojun was also thinking about what Mingyue Ke had just said.
What is the common goal? Could it be that Mingyue Ke's goal is also the throne?
No, it should be said that Mingyue Ke also wants to help himself as the crown prince to ascend to the throne? After all, the fact that the eighth king "Xiao Liangjun" supported his compatriot brother Xiao Shaojun, the crown prince, is well known.
If it is a common goal, then this is the most in line with it!
But what good is this for Mingyue Ke? After all, doesn't she want to get out of the marriage?
Xiao Shaojun really couldn't figure it out, and at this time he also looked in the direction of the woman on the bed.
saw that this woman's body was still trembling slightly, pretending to be asleep! Xiao Shaojun saw through it at a glance, but he didn't plan to directly demolish the other party.
Blowing out the candles on the table, Xiao Shaojun fell asleep directly on the collapse of the flower hall with a quilt with a slight female fragrance.
Hengshan in the distance, after seeing his master climb the window into the house again, he also washed his nose aggrievedly, it seems that tonight is another night of no return.
And he needs to wait here, and it is also a punishment for him.
And the reason for the punishment is twofold, one is because he didn't hold back his laughter during the day, and the other is because he didn't find out in advance tonight, it turned out to be a trap, so he let the Lord go in alone.
But fortunately, His Royal Highness the Lord Crown Prince is fine, otherwise he would have been really guilty.
There was nothing to say all night, and on the second day, Mingyue Ke didn't wake up until late.
Because Mingyue Ke is a fool now, these maids in Yuxin Garden don't regard her as their master, so they casually put breakfast on the table, and they didn't even plan to personally serve her, a "fool", to change clothes.
Mingyue Ke didn't care, she wished those maids wouldn't bother her.
Xiao Shaojun, the crown prince who pretended to be the eighth king "Xiao Liangjun" to see her last night, naturally had already left, and Mingyue Ke was used to this.
But maybe because he knew that the person was sleeping in the flower hall, so if something happened, he would protect himself, so Mingyue Ke slept peacefully.
At this time, Mingyue Ke came to the table, and the breakfast was already cold.
And at this time, I heard the sound of a conversation in the courtyard passing through.
It seems that someone has come to Yuxin Garden.
"Have you ever had breakfast?" the voice remembered, but it was Mama Wang's voice.
Isn't she the eldest lady's right-hand man? How did she come to this courtyard?
At this time, Mingyue Ke was a little more attentive, and directly plucked the silver hairpin from his head and placed it in the porridge, but he never saw the hairpin blackened.
I tried all the other dishes one by one, and there were no problems.
Mingyue Ke frowned, but fortunately, Mingyue Ke heard well, so he heard that outside, Mama Wang was telling Xia Bing and Qiu Yu about something.
"Make Xueji tea for the eldest lady today, this tea will catch your breath and die when it touches the poison in the porridge. ”
"I will never find out any cause, and when the time comes, I will only say that it is the sequelae after the head impact. ”
After hearing the other party's words, Mingyue Ke also remembered that Xueji tea is a specialty tea of Nanyin Kingdom, and it is the first wave of tea picked after the first snow, so he took a name with the beautiful meaning of Xueji Tianqing.
If Mingyue Ke didn't guess wrong, there must have been Cordyceps added to this porridge.
Individually, these two are not a big problem, but if they are put together, then the user will have the side effect of not having a good breath.
If you take too much, it will eventually lead to the consequences of holding your breath and dying.
At this time, there was already a sneer on the corner of Mingyue Ke's mouth, I didn't expect that the eldest lady couldn't hold it back so quickly, and wanted to kill her?
However, Mingyue Ke felt that he still underestimated the eldest lady, and he could even think of using things like autumn cordyceps and snow Ji tea to kill her.
No, the eldest lady must not have imagined it, she must have been instructed by someone behind her, could it be Tomorrow Wei?
Mingyueke was not sure, but he did not rule out this possibility.
What Mingyue Ke didn't know was that when she entered the palace on the second day, the eldest lady Bai Bingzhen also entered the palace with her and met the step-queen Jin Weiyue.
At this time, hearing Mama Wang say that she was leaving, Mingyue Ke also picked up the bowl of porridge, secretly poured out a small half, and hid it under the bed.
You can't let Xia Bing and the other maids see that she must not have moved, in that case, they will definitely be suspicious.
Then, Ming Yueke rummaged through the dark compartment of his dresser and found some remaining herbs.
This dresser was still used by her mother Qin Huaiyu back then, and Mingyue Ke naturally knew all the secrets of this dresser.
In fact, in that dark grid, there are not only herbs, but also poisons.
These poisons were left by his mother, and they had been discovered by Mingyue Ke as early as in his previous life.
Mingyue Ke picked the most common seven-step pour, then went into the remaining half bowl of white porridge, and then hid the seven-step pour-down back into the dark compartment of the dresser, and restored everything to the original.
After doing all this, Mingyueke sat down at the table again, pretended to be a fool, and began to compete with the cake on the plate in front of him.
So when Mama Wang left, Xia Bing pushed open the door and saw Mingyue Ke with a vicious expression, biting the cakes on the plate in front of her, and there were broken cakes everywhere.
At this time, Xia Bing's eyes were full of disgust that could not be concealed.
Even in front of Mingyue Ke, he muttered directly, "What about the eldest lady of the Ming Mansion?
That's right, at this time, in Xia Bing's eyes, she Mingyue Ke is like a cow and sheep waiting to be slaughtered, but fortunately, Mingyue Ke didn't take her words to heart.
I have already said before, keeping her is just of great use, otherwise, as early as when she was in the East Palace, she would have shut up forever.
Although Mingyue Ke is kind-hearted, she will definitely not be as innocent as she was in her previous life, and she will not tolerate these bullies against her.
"Miss, let's have some tea. Xia Bing said, poured the tea from the teapot he brought in into the cup, and then put it in front of Mingyue Ke.
After putting it away, he closed the door and went out.
However, Mingyue Ke knew that the other party must not have gone far, but was still staring at his every move.
simply, then make a show for her.
Mingyue Ke also sneered in his heart.
And Xia Bing was not in a hurry, she knew that the current Mingyue Ke was just a fool, and the fool did things according to his own heart.
So whether she Mingyue Ke drinks that cup of tea or not, she naturally has to try her luck with fate.
At this time, Xia Bing was standing outside the door, poked a small hole, and looked inside, feeling extremely nervous and anxious, hoping that Mingyue Ke could drink the tea as expected!
"Drink it, drink it!" Xia Bing was anxious in his heart.
She felt that her prayer might be useful, but Mingyue Ke really picked up the teacup in front of her and drank it.
Then, I saw that Mingyueke, the once beautiful lady of the Ming Mansion, grabbed her neck, her expression became more hideous, and then she fell to the ground because of pain, and at the same time kept twitching, but not long after, she didn't move.
At this time, Xia Bing also pushed open the door and walked in.
"Miss?" Xia Bing shouted tentatively, a little uncertain, and stepped forward even more.
With his own foot, he kicked Mingyue Ke, and seeing that Mingyue Ke still didn't have any movement, it was determined that Mingyue Ke, the eldest lady of the Ming Mansion, was really dead.
In fact, everything that Mingyue Ke had just done was just for Xia Bing to see.
When Xia Bing kicked her with her foot, she naturally knew it, but she endured it!
"Oh no, something happened to the eldest lady!" Xia Bing shouted, and at the same time made a frightened expression on his face, and ran out.
All of a sudden, the entire Yuxin Garden was like a fried pot.
All the maids came to the front yard, and when they looked at the eldest lady Mingyue Ke who fell to the ground, they all panicked.
After all, Mingyue Ke is the eldest lady of the Ming Mansion!
If something happens, they may not be able to eat and walk around.
Soon, there was an accident on Yuxinyuan's side, and it had already spread throughout the Ming Mansion.
And when Mrs. Ming heard the news, she fainted directly.
The eldest lady Bai Bingzhen, as the head of the Ming Mansion, naturally rushed to the scene quickly.
However, the eldest lady only glanced at Mingyue Ke, and ordered her Mingfu servants to go to the coffin shop and quickly ask them to send a set of Nanmu coffins.
Because this was in the morning, and Ming Xiang had not returned to the house yet, everyone listened to the words of the eldest lady for a while.
After Ming Xiang came back, he hadn't even stepped into the Ming Mansion when he felt that his right eye was jumping, as if something bad was going to happen.
And when I arrived at the door of the Ming Mansion, I saw that at the door of the Ming Mansion, a white cloth had begun to be hung.
Immediately, Mingxiang's heart was shocked, could it be that his mother had gone?
Thinking like this, Ming Xiang panicked in his heart, and at the same time, the pace under his feet was also panicked, so he staggered towards the Ming Mansion.
"Master..."Bai Shi was also prepared, squeezing out two tears, "Miss, she... She sadly passed away. ”
Bai Shi also pretended to be very sad, and said to Ming Xiang.
After listening, Ming Xiang turned even more sad to angry, wasn't his daughter still fine yesterday, why did something go wrong today?
"What the hell is going on?Ke'er is fine, how can he just leave?" Ming Xiang asked Bai Shi and said.
And Bai Shi has obviously prepared an excuse a long time ago, "The eldest lady died of holding her breath, and the doctor said that it may be due to the sequelae after the brain was impacted." ”
"I don't believe it. Ming Xiang said, and went directly to the front hall, but saw that the coffins had already been placed, and his daughter Mingyue Ke was lying there.
Mingyue Ke naturally knew everything that was happening around him.
At this time, Ming Xiang came to the front of the coffin and stretched out his hand, as if he could still feel the temperature of his daughter Mingyue Ke's body.
But it's still unbelievable, how can I say that my daughter, who was still alive yesterday, is gone?
"Master, don't be too sad. ”
"No one wants this kind of thing about a white-haired person sending a black-haired person, after all, I also see Ke'er as my own daughter. Bai Shi also cried and said, as if he was really sad.
And Mingyue Ke was lying in the coffin, almost couldn't help but laugh out loud, the Bai family regarded her as their own daughter? If this is the case, how could they poison her?
"Master, the death of this eldest lady is not a good sign after all, so let's bury it early. ”
"Otherwise, I'm afraid that if I die young, my body will be angry, and it will be easy for the corpse to change. At this time, Bai Shi also continued to say in Mingxiang's ear.
"And the old lady, after I heard that the eldest lady went, she was almost there, so she followed, and at this time, under the conditioning of the house doctor, she woke up. ”
Ming Xiang originally thought that it was a little inappropriate to directly let Mingyue Ke be buried, but before he could say anything, he heard Bai mention his mother, obviously, Ming was confused, and now he paid more attention to the situation of his mother Ming Lao Taijun.
"Then do as you say. With a wave of his hand, Ming Xiang said directly, and then prepared to leave the mourning hall and go to visit his mother, Mrs. Ming.
Under Bai's instructions, the servants of the Ming Mansion carried the lid of the coffin, ready to close and fix the coffin.
And once the coffin is fixed, Mingyue Ke may really suffocate to death because there is no air in the coffin.
