Chapter 240: The Nail (I)
After the spies rescued the servant, they took him directly back to the War King's Mansion.
Nowadays, people are placed in the middle of nowhere.
When Mu Zhixi saw the servant, he was lying on a wooden bed, weak.
Looking at his appearance, he is indeed a delicate little guy, no wonder he will be treated like that by Murong Zheng.
"See the small ones...... Lord, princess...... "Just to say goodbye, he has done his best.
Qiushuang was a little distressed when she saw him like this.
He is only fourteen or fifteen, and it is really pitiful to be poisoned by such a poisonous hand.
Mu Zhixi spoke calmly.
"This is the War King's Mansion, Murong Zheng didn't have the courage to chase after him.
You can recuperate well here, and you don't have to worry about medical expenses. ”
"Princess Mo Huaixie...... Save...... Saving...... Cough cough cough ......" As soon as the words fell, he coughed weakly.
"Your name is Mo Huai, isn't it? Mu Zhixi personally stepped forward to help him take his pulse.
Xiao Yiyan frowned.
Qiushuang is good at observing words and feelings, and hurriedly handed over the silk handkerchief.
"Princess, use this. ”
Mu Zhixi took it over, and through the silk handkerchief, she checked Mo Huai's pulse.
Xiao Yiyan looked at Qiu Shuang with satisfaction.
Children can be taught.
Compared to when he first entered the mansion, he was much smarter.
Mu Zhixi's eyes were deep, and after feeling something, she whispered to herself.
"Sure enough, it was exactly what I thought. ”
"Any questions?"
Xiao Yiyan didn't want her to get too close to an injured person, so as not to get contaminated.
He helped her up without a trace, and Qiushuang hurriedly put away the veil.
Lu Yuan glanced at the handkerchief and muttered in a low voice.
"It's just a piece of scared, and you should throw it away after using it. ”
When Qiu Shuang heard this, she glared back at Lu Yuan.
"Good veil, why throw it,"
Lu Yuan was originally just talking to himself, but he didn't expect Qiushuang's ears to be so smart.
He turned his face away slightly embarrassed, looked away, and pretended not to say anything.
Mu Zhixi did not directly explain the situation, but asked the servant.
"Who gave the poison on your body? Murong Zheng?"
"Poisoned?" Lu Yuan looked surprised.
"Princess, is there a mistake? The doctor didn't say that this kid was poisoned?"
Qiu Shuang stepped on Lu Yuan directly.
"Talky! The doctor is powerful, or our princess is powerful!"
Lu Yuan hurriedly laughed. "Naturally, the princess is powerful. ”
Xiao Yiyan glanced at Lu Yuan, who didn't dare to resist, and was very disdainful.
It's a guard leader, so it's just a little bit of a business.
I didn't dare to say anything when I was stepped on by a woman, how could I kill people and set fire in the future.
On the bed, Mo Huai was obviously a little scared.
Under Mu Zhixi's gaze, his gaze dodged.
"No, there is no poisonous ......"
Mu Zhixi snorted coldly, "You are dying, do you still have to keep that secret for the Murong family." ”
Mo Huai looked at Fang Liang blankly, his tone sad.
"My family, they ...... They're going to die. ”
Mu Zhixi's eyes were slightly cold.
"In addition to using poison to control you, he also used his family as a threat, and he will be able to keep his hands behind. ”
"Princess, has Mo Huai's family been arrested?" Qiu Shuang was very sympathetic to this frail young man, and couldn't help but ask.
Lu Yuan glanced at Qiu Shuang, and then at Mo Huai, with an unknown light in his eyes.
Memorized people's names so quickly?
I think it took her a long time to remember her name.
That's a big difference.
Is the word "Lu Yuan" more difficult to remember than "Mo Huai"?
Mu Zhixi knew Mo Huai's situation.
He could die himself, but not his family.
"Your family, we will help you save it. In exchange, I wanted to know the secrets of Murong Villa. ”
Mo Huai gasped a few times with some difficulty, "Thank you, Princess...... I, I know that my fate is not long in the future, and I hope that the princess ......"
"Since you know that your life is short, save your strength and say something useful. Mu Zhixi interrupted his thanks, not wanting to waste time.
She went straight to the point and asked, "Where is the medicine man that Murong is raising?" ”
"In, in the underground palace in the back mountain...... The little one didn't go in to see it, but only delivered food......"
Mo Huai's body was still very weak and he couldn't say much.
Mu Zhixi then asked, "What kind of poison is Murong Zheng giving you, is there an antidote?"
Mo Huai paused, his eyes straightened, as if he was thinking about something.
After thinking for a moment, he replied.
"Antidote...... There is no antidote, only a talisman. Not obedient...... It's going to hurt ......."
Thinking of that taste, he felt palpitations, and his body reacted.
The feeling that the cold air enters the body and the whole person is thrown into the ice lake makes life worse than death.
"What is a life talisman?" Mu Zhixi asked persistently.
Xiao Yiyan didn't bother her to ask, and it could be seen that she was very concerned about the antidote.
"Princess, the little one didn't lie to you, really, really not. Mo Huai was very convinced.
People are dying, there is no need to deceive people.
If it weren't for the War King's Mansion to rescue his family, he would have taken all those secrets to the grave.
Mu Zhixi's chin pressed slightly, and a touch of loss flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Well, I believe what you say.
Take good care of your injuries, and leave your family's affairs to us. ”
There is no antidote.
Then there was really no hope.
Back in the main house, Xiao Yiyan asked casually.
"Why are you so lost?"
Knowing the secret of Murong Zheng raising medicine people and mutilating innocents, she should be happy.
"Although I don't know what's going on, I'm sure that Bai Qi's cold qi has entered his body, and he hasn't seen it well all year round, more or less, and it has something to do with Murong Villa. ”
Xiao Yiyan's reaction was very fast, "He has been weak and sick since he was a child, is he being harmed by someone?"
He also understands Bai Qi's illness.
So many doctors have seen it, but they can't find the symptoms.
"It's just that Bai Qi has no signs of poisoning, how can this be explained?" His eyes were deep and sharp, and he was as secretive as he was.
"A huge Murong Villa, what it does is not only to cure diseases and save people's livelihood, but also to prepare poisons.
It's like a dark web, there are buys and sells, there are deals.
Murong Zheng can become the richest man in Beiyan, and there must be a backer behind him.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to leave no handle in the dark deals he has made over the years. ”
Xiao Yiyan deeply agrees.
He added unhurriedly.
"If there is really a force behind it, the water in Murong Villa will be deep.
The Murong family's medical clinics are all over the country, and if they can acquire land and buy shops in just a few years, that person must have connections in the court.
has the ability to reach the sky with his hands and eyes, and can hide from the sky and the sea, just one Murong Zheng may not be able to deceive him. ”
Mu Zhixi nodded thoughtfully.
She didn't care much about the court.
What she wanted was Murong Zheng's life, and she personally destroyed everything he had worked so hard to manage.
"Murong Villa, deal with it slowly, don't be in a hurry. The most important thing at the moment is to find those medicine people and find out what kind of poison Bai Qi contains. ”
"I'll send a few people over to inquire first, and this matter will have to be discussed in the long run. ”
Hearing this, Mu Zhixi looked at the sun outside and estimated the hour.
The corners of her lips lifted slightly, and she said leisurely.
"Don't have to wait too long. Before today, there will be a big mess in Murong Villa, and when the time comes, directly let Lu Yuan and them surprise attack the Houshan Palace, and control their lives with one move. ”
Seeing her so confident and calm, Xiao Yiyan's eyes lit up, "You arranged it?"
Mu Zhixi smiled, revealing two playful tiger teeth.
"I'm just small, and I've fueled the fire. ”
Murong Yi wants to be powerful, so he has to be ruthless to Murong Zheng today.
But Murong Zheng had a lot of guards around her, and she didn't mind sending some people over to push Murong Yi around.
Not from time to time.
She waited to see the results.
