Chapter 8: The Man Who Looks Away

Murong Xi stared at Qu Lan threateningly, and said faintly, "It's me." ”

The dark and hoarse voice was terrifying, like a demon from the underworld.

Qu Lan froze for a moment, a trace of surprise obviously flashed in her eyes, and she immediately regained her composure and said, "Does the princess want the slave to prepare water?" ”

"You don't want to ask me why I can speak?" Every time Murong Xi said a word, his throat was dry and itchy.

Qu Lan hung her head, clasped her hands in front of her lower abdomen, and respectfully, "The princess has been reading medical books in Cining Palace since she was a child, and the slave believes that the princess will speak sooner or later." ”

Qu Lan's words were very contrary to his intentions.

In the past ten years, the Queen Mother has found many doctors for Murong Xi's mute disease, but none of them can be treated.

Suddenly speaking, it really made Qu Lan a little confused.

She wasn't curious, though.

She just wants to live in peace.

No matter what the means, as long as she lives!

The rest, for her, were floating clouds.

Murong Xi stared at Qu Lan by mistake, and all the subtle expressions that appeared on Qu Lan's face did not escape her discerning eyes.

Finally, he showed a look that if you dared to say it, you would die, "If I can speak, don't tell anyone in advance." ”

It is an exhortation, but also a temptation.

She wanted to find out if Qu Lan was a perfidious person as she thought.

Qu Lan nodded, and then asked, "What about the Queen Mother?" ”

"What do you say?" Murong Ji's eyes flashed.

Who knew that Qu Lan's reaction made her stunned for a moment.

Qu Lan knelt on the ground and said earnestly: "Qu Lan is the princess's maidservant, and since the princess said 'anyone', the slave and maid guess should also include the queen mother." ”

After serving Murong Xi for a year, it was the first time that the master and servant had said so many things.

Although there were instructions written on paper before, Qu Lan had never heard her tone or felt her harsh gaze.

At this moment, Qu Lan actually felt that the princess in front of her was not like the princess in the past.

Murong Xi nodded and took out a prescription casually, "I hope you don't live up to my trust." ”

"Yes!"

After that, Qu Lan withdrew to prepare water, and after Murong Xi bathed again, dinner had already been set up in the room.

There is also a bowl of freshly fried decoction.

Murong Xi didn't speak again, ate quietly, and then drank the bowl of soup and medicine.

During this period, Qu Lan did not have any overstepping glances or actions.

Xu was the reason for drinking the medicine, the stinging pain in his throat gradually dissipated, and Murong Xi also spent a peaceful night.

As everyone knows, while she was sleeping soundly, the study room of Dawn Pavilion was filled with a strong bloody atmosphere.

Fu Yuanshou's shoulders were pierced by two iron hooks, and blood stained a large area of his clothes.

He grinned with bared teeth, and shocking blood spilled from his mouth.

"Jiang Huaiyin, the old man has been dormant by your side for many years, but I didn't expect to be discovered by you!"

Jiang Huaiyin sat lazily on the side of the chair, carefully wiping a blood-stained dagger, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked.

"You're the first person to make this king look away."

"Phew!" Half of Fu Yuanshou's face was covered by messy hair, but his bloodshot eyes were still full of resentment, "It is a shame for the old man to be able to get your favorite!" ”

Back in the day, Jiang Huaiyin killed more than a dozen juniors in his family, leaving only one sister-in-law as a bargaining chip to threaten Fu Yuan's first surrender.

Fu Yuanshou was just a doctor, and he never formed a party for personal gain in the court, but he was suddenly co-opted by Jiang Huaiyin, the devil, in such a cruel way, and he was furious and wanted to die.

But the only bloodline of the Fu family is still in Jiang Huaiyin's hands, and if he dies, his son-in-law will also go with him.

The demise of the Fu family will be worthless.

It is better to do your part for the Qianguo before you die and get rid of the regent who has done a lot of evil.

Therefore, Fu Yuan was at the mercy of Jiang Huaiyin and handed over the emperor's case to Jiang Huaiyin in every detail.

When the two were in contact alone, they sprinkled poison powder on the case book in small quantities and many times.

When he saw the poisonous mole on Jiang Huaiyin's nose, God knows how excited Fu Yuanshou was.

I thought that his plan to eliminate violence and peace was seamless, but he didn't expect that the matter would be revealed so quickly.

"Now that the prince has found the old man, presumably the prince has realized how serious the toxins on his body are, right?"

Fu Yuanshou smiled madly, and his embarrassed face was full of meaning, "Forgive the old man for being blunt, if a ruthless person like you survives in the world, it is a scourge in the world, so it's not as good as the old man to travel to the Yellow Spring together!" ”

As soon as Fu Yuan's first words fell, the door was pushed open with a bang, and the night wind struck suddenly, but it couldn't catch up with Ye Lan's speed.

He drew the long sword at his waist, and the cold light lingered around Fu Yuanshou like lightning, forming a light shield.

"Ding~"

Putting the sword into the sheath, Ye Lan stood coldly in front of Fu Yuanshou, seeing his clothes shattered into thousands of pieces in an instant, and the hideous wounds appeared on his body like leeches, more and more.

"Poof!"

Fu Yuanshou spit out another mouthful of black blood, glared at Jiang Huaiyin and said, "Jiang Huaiyin, the old man will go first and wait for you under the Nine Springs!" ”

The dagger in Jiang Huaiyin's hand was finally wiped clean, and he turned around carelessly, facing Fu Yuanshou who was on the verge of death, his eyebrows and eyes bent, and his smile was frivolous.

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the head of the Fu Academy."

Since he had been facing Fu Yuanshou on his side, Fu Yuanshou did not see the poisonous mole on the wing of his nose from beginning to end.

After turning around, Fu Yuanshou saw the dark poisonous mole on the wing of his nose, and the color of the outer ring was actually much darker.

His pupils shrank suddenly, and Fu Yuan shouted unwillingly: "How can this be? It can't be, it can't be! ”

His disappointed expression aroused Jiang Huaiyin's pleasure, "This king's poison will be solved soon, don't leave the head of the Fu courtyard to witness it with your own eyes, go with peace of mind." ”

"Bang!"

Fu Yuanshou was depressed, and the last glimmer of hope collapsed in an instant, crushing him, and his eyes were red and fell in a pool of blood.

Before he died, he still chanted the words, "Absolutely impossible-"

"Tsk, I still want to hurt this king - waste!"

Jiang Huaiyin shook his head and sneered, put one hand against his temple, closed his eyes and said lightly: "Drag it out." ”

Ye Lan hurriedly withdrew and ordered his subordinates to come in and collect the corpses, those subordinates were used to seeing such scenes, and after a while, agarwood was lit in the study, gradually covering up the annoying bloody smell.

After the last drop of blood was wiped away, the room was quiet again, and Ye Lan dared to speak: "Master, there is movement in Pujia Garden again. ”

Jiang Huaiyin's eyes lifted slightly, and Yelan handed out the letterhead taken from the carrier pigeon.

Only a few words were written on it, but Jiang Huaiyin's eyes froze.

"Can the princess speak?"

Yelan shook her head, "My subordinates don't know. ”

Jiang Huaiyin's mind suddenly appeared in the picture of Murong Xi "stealing" the needle bag, and he couldn't help but chuckle:

"It seems that the first person to look away from this king is not the head of the Fu Academy, but the princess. The princess of this king is really getting more and more interesting! ”
