Chapter 425: Burnt Out

Such a loud quarrel and confrontation was heard by anyone who passed by outside the Autumn Water Temple. After a stick of incense, the Queen Mother took Bai Pei back to Ci'an Hall angrily, and even Yi Wei didn't come to Qiushui Palace.

"Xiangye, someone in the palace is here to spread the word!"

"Please come in!" Wen Si got up and walked to the door, and saw Yi Wei walking in quickly. The two seemed a little embarrassed to see each other. Yi Wei Shi Li said, "Wen Xiang, the Queen Mother is invited!" Wen Si was stunned, for so many years, Shuangyuan had never taken the initiative to summon him, he couldn't help asking, "What is the important matter of the Queen Mother, and I also bothered the Yi guards to go on a trip in person!"

"This!" Yi Wei was a little hesitant, a little hesitant, and a little flustered, "It's really hard to say, the Queen Mother was scolded by those people, and even Aunt Bai Pei was angry and cried!"

Wen Si's eyebrows jumped, and he suddenly asked with a smile, "Who in the palace is so bold that he is disrespectful to the Queen Mother?" Yi Guard, according to his own words, should teach a good lesson and then drive him out of the palace!" Yi Wei coughed lightly, "If it is someone else, it will be fine, but these are distinguished guests from the burning sky, and the Queen Mother can't be scolded and can't be chased! Alas, there has never been such a thing, the Queen Mother, she has been wronged!"

Before coming, Bai Pei told Yi Wei several times that he must make a heartbroken and very sad appearance in front of Wen Si. It's just that he practiced a few times and the effect was unsatisfactory, but he didn't expect that when he really saw Wen Si, he passed the test in a fool's way.

"Guards Yi took the first step, and the prime minister went into the palace to see the queen mother. "A woman's weakness is always the most powerful weapon, Wen Si, as a man, even though he was a little suspicious, but thinking that this was a rare time for him to ask for help from someone he thought about day and night, he immediately relented and agreed.

In the Ci'an Palace, Shuangyuan went to the hairpin ring, leaned on the couch in plain clothes, and wept secretly. Bai Pei whispered comforting on the side, her eyes were red and swollen, and she must have cried a lot. When Wen Si saw it, he forgot all the unhappiness and displeasure before, and walked to the front of the couch in a few steps, "The queen mother doesn't have to worry, just leave this matter to the minister." Bai Pei, help the Queen Mother to rest in the dormitory!"

"Brother Wen Si, I, I ......" Shuangyuan put down his body, this "Brother Wen Si" screamed extremely miserable, and even brought a few sobs, Wen Si's heart was broken into more than a dozen petals, and he couldn't wait to go up and take her into his arms immediately. It's just that this is not the time to do this, he has to make this matter clear and solve Shuangyuan's sister's worries.

Autumn Water Temple.

Huang Xiaorong had already woken up, and the "poison" in her was just a little medicinal powder she got from Mo Xuanji. It looks like his lips are blue and he vomits a mouthful of "blood", but it's all bluffing. After being surrounded by more than a dozen imperial doctors for diagnosis and treatment all night, she didn't know how scared she was.

"How long do I have to lie down, my waist is sore!" While no one was paying attention, Huang Xiaorong whispered to Zhan Xingran, "Moreover, I'm hungry." "It's just anything else, the medicine sent by the imperial doctors was secretly poured out by Zhan Xingran, but she couldn't eat blatantly, Huang Xiaorong couldn't stand it.

"This?" Zhan Xingran was a little embarrassed, the snacks on the table looked good, but most of them were good, and the taste was not very good. Huang Xiaorong is still a "patient", it is difficult to get a table of wine and food, and she is worried, Sima Lu walked in and secretly stuffed him with an oiled paper bag.

Before he opened it, he could already smell the fragrant aroma, and Zhan Xingran was overjoyed, "Meat buns, Miss Sima, where did you get this?" Sima Lu said, "I thought that it was not easy for Xiaorong to pretend to be sick, and it was not good to eat and drink, so I made this deliberately." I won't tell you, let her eat it, I have to go back to hang myself!"

According to what they had discussed before, after Sima Lu was "indecent" by the guards, he cried, made trouble and hanged himself, just in the last step.

So, when Wen Si stepped into the Qiushui Palace, just in time for a new round of crying, Sima Lu hanged himself.

"Fortunately", the maids who were waiting for them did their best to find out in time to save Sima Lu, but they didn't expect it to be a step too late. Sima Lu was strangled by the rope, his tongue was also spit out, and there was a black-purple strangulation mark on his neck, which was very terrifying.

"This, what are you going to do here?" Yi Wei didn't tell Wen Si what the cause of the incident was, he only thought it was because of Fang Duan's disappearance, and these people made a fuss regardless of their identity, until he saw Sima Lu hanging himself, and then he realized that something was wrong.

"Hmph! Wen Xiang came just in time, my cousin, the only daughter of the Sima family, the richest man in the palace, was forced to prove her innocence by death by a small guard in the palace!" Mo Xuanji said with righteous indignation, and his fingers were about to poke Wen Si's nose.

"Is it a misunderstanding about the guards?" In the absence of any knowledge, Wen Si did not seem to make a big deal about it. Unexpectedly, a maid who "doesn't know how to look at eyes" stood up and bowed her head and said, "Last night, the slaves and maids saw clearly, the guards pulled Miss Sima's clothes, and they also moved their hands and feet!"

After a few words, the choked Wen Si couldn't even say a word to excuse the guard. There was nowhere to vent his anger, so he had to say sharply, "Come on, drag that guard out and behead him!" Wen Si has always been in the palace, and this time it is for the Queen Mother, naturally no one dares to disobey. I only took pity on the guard, but I was "seduced" by Sima Lu and was emotional, so I did something unbearable, but I didn't expect my head to fall to the ground!

"Wen Xiang understands the righteousness, then let's take a look at the princess by the way!" Mo Xuanji didn't wait for Wen Si to react, and took him to Zhan Xingran and Huang Xiaorong's room. Of the three meat buns sent by Sima Lu, Huang Xiaorong only ate one when she heard footsteps outside. She stuffed the oil paper and meat bun into Zhan Xingran's hand, Zhan Xingran heard Mo Xuanji's "warm phase", and immediately knelt down on one knee in front of the bed, holding the remaining two meat buns, and said with tears in her eyes, "Xiao Rong, Xiao Rong, open your eyes and see, this is your favorite meat bun, it's still hot, get up and take a bite!"

The door opened, and no matter who saw it, it was an infatuated husband standing by his wife's bedside, hoping that she would wake up as soon as possible. After eating a meat bun, she was not so hungry, Huang Xiaorong was already drowsy, and her face was pale with her eyes closed, which was also very pitiful.

"Young Master Mo, what's going on?" Wen Si only felt that one head had become two bigger, and Mo Xuanji wiped the corners of his eyes that were not moist and said, "Princess Wang, she was poisoned after drinking a cup of tea last night." The imperial doctors in the palace came again, and they all said, and they all said, alas!"

A long sigh made Wen Si's hairs stand on end. Among these people, the only ones he didn't want to or dared to move were Zhan Xingran and his wife, why did something happen to them?
