Night is not a suitable time to visit others, but the woman in plain clothes obviously doesn't care about this, she also knows that for Yun Yao and Gu Qingming, night is safer than daytime.

The three of them sat down in the flower hall, and the plain-clothed woman instructed the maid to serve tea, and then looked at Yun Yao and asked, "How does Miss Yun know that my surname is Ning?"

When Yun Yao heard this, her eyes swept over the waist of the plain-clothed woman, fell on the tassel she saw in the daytime, and said with a smile: "It's just a coincidence, if I hadn't seen the acacia knot on my sister's waist and the word Rongfu, I wouldn't have guessed my sister's identity." ”

"Miss Yun is really as smart as rumored. The plain-clothed woman took the acacia knot off her waist and looked at it, with a different look flashing in her eyes.

Exactly the same lovesick knot, Yun Yao once saw it in the Ning Palace, on the body of Xuanyang Hou Rongyan.

As Yun Yao said, it was just a coincidence. If Rong Ya hadn't taught her to make up such a lovesick knot, she wouldn't have told her the story of this lovesick knot, let alone told her that Rong Yan also had one.

At that time, Yun Yao knew that Rong Yan was a person with a story, and coupled with the seemingly respectful relationship between Rong Yan and Qin Zhen'er, but in fact it was as cold as frost, she guessed that the lovesick knot on Rong Yan's body was related to women.

By chance, at a palace banquet, Yun Yao's gaze inadvertently swept over the acacia knot on Rong Yan's waist, and the word "Ning" was embroidered with light blue silk thread, so she guessed that the word "Ning" was either the woman's surname or the woman's name.

However, regardless of the surname or first name, there is nothing wrong with Yun Yao calling her Sister Ning. So, Fang Cai's words were temptation, but they were also determined.

In fact, what allowed Yun Yao to determine the identity of the plain-clothed woman in front of her was not only the lovesick knot, but also the so-called Rong Mansion. And Xuanyang Hou Rongyan is surnamed Rong, which shows the relationship between the two.

These news, after Yun Yao and Gu Qingming returned to the room in the inn during the day, she had already told Gu Qingming everything, so although the conversation between her and the plain-clothed woman was vague now, Gu Qingming was not incomprehensible.

"Sister Ning has an overreputation, I don't know why Sister Ning asked us to come here?" Yun Yao responded humbly, and then asked.

"Don't you want to see the Jade King?" the plain-clothed woman smiled, "If you are not allowed to come here, are you going to trespass into the Forbidden Palace?"

After saying this, the plain-clothed woman went to the inner hall and helped a man out from inside.

The man was dressed in a cyan robe, and he looked very elegant, but he was wearing a thick cloak on the outside, and he wrapped himself tightly. There was a trace of abnormal paleness on his face, which was so similar to Shen Che.

With just one glance, Yun Yao already understood the identity of the person in front of him - the Jade King.

"Xin'er, thank you for your hard work. The Jade King walked to the main seat and sat down, then pulled Ning Xin to sit down on the side, and thanked him.

"Have you worked hard for me all these years, why are you so polite?" Ning Xin smiled, "It's you, obviously not in good health, and you still leave the palace at night." ”

"You also know that there are no more pairs of eyes in the palace staring, how can you let General Gu and Miss Yun put themselves in danger? What's more, this time, when Doctor Xue comes out, there will be no problem. The Jade King said disapprehantly.

"I can't control you, anyway, my Jade Princess is just a vain name, you can toss it if you want. Ning Xin said, "You and General Gu talk slowly, and I'll go and decoct the medicine for you." ”

After speaking, Ning Xin walked outside without saying anything more to Yun Yao and Gu Qingming.

But the conversation between the Jade King and Ning Xin shocked Yun Yao. Even if she could guess that Ning Xin was related to Rong Yan, she didn't expect that she was the legendary Jade Princess.

I have always heard that the Jade King is frail and sick, and the government of the Jade Kingdom is handled by the Jade Princess, and now it seems that this is not untrue, but what makes Yun Yao curious is that with the relationship between Ning Xin and Rong Yan, why did she become the Jade Princess?

"The last general, Gu Qingming, has seen His Royal Highness the Jade King. Just when Yun Yao was puzzled, Gu Qingming got up and saluted towards the Jade King Shen Hu.

"General Gu doesn't have to be polite. The Jade King said, "This king has received news from the seventh brother a few days ago, saying that General Gu may arrive in the Jade Kingdom in the near future, so he asked Xin'er to go out to investigate, but I didn't expect to meet you so soon." ”

"It turns out that His Royal Highness King Yi has already written a letter here?" Gu Qingming suddenly realized why Ning Xin'er would see through their identities at a glance.

"The war is tense, the seventh brother and the Ning Palace have their own victories and defeats, in the troubled times, how can they be alone? Even if this king has ignored the government for a long time, he can't stay out of the matter. The Jade King said, "In fact, as early as the birthday of the Empress Dowager Qin, the king has already seen the thoughts of the seventh brother, and after leaving Beijing, the king took the initiative to send someone to contact the seventh brother, which is what I see today." ”

"Then did His Royal Highness the Jade King choose to stand on His Royal Highness King Yi's side?" Yun Yao asked when she heard this.

"This is natural, if it weren't for the seventh brother, this king wouldn't have seen you so soon. The Jade King said, and then took out the holy decree that had already been prepared, "There is General Lao Gu, take this early tomorrow morning to the southern border city, and let the southwest garrison go north to resist Beidi." ”

"Your Highness is righteous, and the last general will take orders. Gu Qingming took the holy decree from the Jade King and arched his hand.

After finishing speaking, I only heard the Jade King cough a few times, this low cough with a hint of forbearance, and after a while, a trace of blood overflowed from the corner of the Jade King's mouth, and was wiped away by him without a trace, as if he had already become accustomed to it.

Yun Yao looked at the trace of blackened blood, her heart moved, she stepped forward and said, "Your Royal Highness the Jade King, the slave maid knows a little bit about medical skills, can you let the slave maid take the pulse for you?"

"I have heard that Miss Yun has excellent medical skills, so you can see for this king, whether this disease can be saved. The Jade King smiled and stretched out his arm, his face calm and indifferent, as if he didn't care at all.

Yun Yao walked up to the Jade King and stretched out his hand to take his pulse.

In fact, Yun Yao is young, and her medical skills are just her weapon in the deep palace, and she has not treated many people, but she feels a little weak for the praise of the Jade King.

After all, she wasn't sure that she could cure the Jade King, if it was so easy to cure, so many famous doctors in the world would have been invited by the Jade King to treat the disease, how could it be her turn?

Thinking in her heart, Yun Yao carefully probed the pulse, but as time passed, her brows furrowed, and her face became more and more ugly.

After a long time, the Jade King asked, "Miss Yun, how is this king's illness?"

"Your Highness, you ...... It's not a disease, it's poisoning. Yun Yao said, "But please forgive the slave maid for being shallow in learning, and I can't see what kind of poison this is, but the slave maid has seen the same pulse as His Highness." ”

Bang Dang –

At the moment when Yun Yao's words fell, there was a crisp sound at the door, and everyone turned around, but saw Ning Xin standing at the door with a pale face, and the tray and medicine bowl in her hand had already fallen to the ground and shattered.

"Xin'er, why are you so careless?" Seeing this, the Jade King asked, "Are you injured?"

"I didn't ...... No, the medicine is spilled, I'll pour another bowl. Ning Xin said, hurriedly packed up the debris and tray on the ground, and turned to leave, her figure a little unstable.

Yun Yao thought of the unknown relationship between Ning Xin and Rong Yan, and probably knew in her heart what Ning Xin was doing this for.

Because...... What Yun Yao said in her mouth, the same poisoning pulse as His Royal Highness the Jade King, was none other than Princess Qin Zhen'er of Ningyuan.

In the past in Ning Palace, Rong Ya said that Princess Ning Yuan was not in good health, and she had been using wild Tianshan Snow Lotus and other drugs to continue her life, and Yun Yao had also had the opportunity to take Qin Zhen'er's pulse, and finally determined that she was not sick, but poisoned.

Yun Yao didn't see what kind of poison it was that day, but she once thought that for Rong Ya's sake, she wanted to help Qin Zhen'er try to detoxify, but Princess Ning Yuan refused.

But what she didn't expect was that after a few years, she actually saw the same pulse and the same poison in the Jade Country.

Yun Yao faintly felt that the poison between the Jade King and Qin Zhen'er was not so simple, after all, Qin Zhen'er's husband Rong Yan and the Jade King's princess Ning Xin had an inexplicable relationship.

After Ning Xin left, the Jade King lowered his sleeve and chuckled, "Miss Yun is really a good doctor. ”

"Your Highness, the slave maid can't detoxify you for the time being, please ask Your Highness to ......" Yun Yao felt very guilty, she originally thought that she had taken the pulse and could more or less help the Jade King, but she didn't expect this to be the result.

"It's okay, even Divine Doctor Xue can't solve the poison, Miss Yun can see that she is already much more clever than ordinary doctors. The Jade King didn't mind, it seemed that he was already used to accepting the facts.

"Divine Doctor Xue?" Yun Yao asked, "Is it...... Divine Doctor Xue of the Divine Doctor Valley?"

This is the second time Yun Yao has heard the word Xue today, when the Jade King talked about Doctor Xue before, she didn't pay much attention to it, she just thought it was an ordinary doctor, but now when she heard the Jade King mention it again, she opened her mouth to ask.

"It turns out that Miss Yun has heard of the name of Divine Doctor Xue? That's right, the Divine Doctor Valley is orthodox in medical skills, and most of the people in the world who study medicine admire the peerless knowledge of the Divine Doctor Valley, and it just so happens that he is in the mansion, and this king sent someone to invite him over. The Jade King said, and then instructed the minions around him to ask for Doctor Xue.

"No......" Yun Yao saw the man go out, and subconsciously wanted to stop it, but when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't say anything.

The slave didn't see anything wrong with Yun Yao, and ran out directly to ask for Doctor Xue.

Yun Yao lowered her head, her hands clenched into fists, and she trembled slightly, which was very different from her previous calm appearance in front of Ning Xin. The Jade King was not in good health, he lowered his head and coughed, but he didn't see anything wrong with her, but Gu Qingming was standing beside her, how could he not see it?

Gu Qingming walked to Yun Yao's side and took her hand, but he felt that Yun Yao's palms were cold, and even a thin layer of fine sweat oozed out.

"Ah Yao, what's wrong? But it's not comfortable?" Gu Qingming asked in a low voice.

He could sense that something was wrong with Yun Yao, which started when she asked Divine Doctor Xue of the Divine Doctor Valley, but since she hadn't said it before, it was not good for him to ask directly.

"I ...... It's okay. Yun Yao shook her head slightly, "I'll talk to you later." ”
