Chapter 127: Asymmetrical Battle

Being stared at by the two, Mu Zhixi asked with a confused face, "Did I say something wrong?"

Xiao Jingyi retracted his gaze and turned to look at Xiao Yiyan, his expression extremely serious.

"The second prince has been to Mingdu before. ”

Mu Zhixi's eyes moved slightly.

Among the princes, the most suspicious is indeed Xiao Linyuan.

But one thing doesn't make sense.

What Xiao Linyuan wants is military power.

directly sent someone to assassinate Xiao Yiyan, and the means were not clever.

Instead, it will make things more complicated and cause a lot of trouble.

Xiao Jingyi didn't stay long in the East Wing.

After he left, Mu Zhixi couldn't hide the worry on her face.

"Husband, do you also think that the matter of Wujimen was done by the second prince?"

Xiao Yiyan replied very rigorously: "I haven't checked it yet, so I can't make a conclusion." ”

As the sun sets, after dinner, the temple becomes more and more quiet.

Xiao Qingya has recovered, Concubine Yang and the maidservant Hongxiu are tight-lipped.

In the past few days, Xiao Qingya's condition has been quite stable, but today, she suddenly vomited blood again.

Concubine Yang was frightened, and immediately sent her maidservant to find Mu Zhixi.

Xiao Yiyan didn't worry about her, and personally accompanied her over.

"Fifth Emperor Sister-in-law......" Xiao Qingya was lying on the bed, her face was a little pale.

Mu Zhixi immediately took Xiao Qingya's pulse, "Has the princess been out today, what did you eat?"

Hongxiu hurriedly stepped forward to answer.

"What the princess of war ordered, the slave and maid dare not forget. The princess stayed in the house and did not step out of the door. Today's food is also according to the medicinal diet given by the princess, and the slaves and maids are staring at the whole process. ”

The more Hongxiu spoke, the more anxious she became, for fear that something would be wrong with the princess, and tears fell down.

Hearing this, Mu Zhixi felt strange.

Didn't go out, and there was no problem eating.

Could it be that the residual poison has not been cleared?

Concubine Yang was anxious, and seeing that Mu Zhixi didn't say a word, she took the initiative to ask.

"Princess Zhan, hasn't the poison in Qingya's body been forced out by you?

Mu Zhixi finished administering the needle and nodded solemnly.

Concubine Yang staggered back, her eyes widened in disbelief, "How could this be!"

Hongxiu knelt on the ground with a "plop", sobbing and crying.

"Niangniang, princess, it's the slave maid who didn't take good care of the princess, it's all the slave's fault!"

Xiao Qingya was still awake, but her body was a little weak.

She opened her mouth with difficulty and said slowly.

"Mother, Fifth Emperor Sister-in-law...... You guys, don't blame Hongxiu......"

"Princess ......" Hongxiu walked to the bedside, tears like a flood bursting the embankment.

Mu Zhixi frowned slightly, "Don't cry!"

People aren't dead yet.

Crying so hard.

Could it be that tears can detoxify?

"If this princess can solve it once, she can solve it a second time. ”

Fortunately, there is still some snake blood left after the dark guard retrieved it last time.

She originally wanted to use it as a medicine and use it as a guide for other medicines, but she didn't expect Xiao Qingya to be poisoned again.

An hour later.

Mu Zhixi successfully forced out the Gu worm in Xiao Qingya's body.

This is the second one, and the color is not as bright as the previous one.

However, to her shock.

There are also the third and fourth articles......

In Xiao Qingya's body, there are more than a dozen Gu worms!

It wasn't the first time Hongxiu had seen this kind of bug, but when she suddenly saw so many, she couldn't help but vomit at that time.

Concubine Yang's face was also ugly, and she forcibly endured the discomfort in her stomach, her brows tightened.

Seeing those bugs, Xiao Qingya's mood collapsed a little.

Especially, thinking that they had been alive in her body for so long.

"Mother, I'm afraid ......"

"Qingya is not afraid, the mother concubine is here. ”

Concubine Yang sat on the edge of the bed, held Xiao Qingya's hand, and tried her best to comfort her.

To be honest, she was scared too.

But her daughter needs her, and she has to be strong.

In a room, there were four women, and only Mu Zhixi was calm and put all those Gu worms into a wooden box.

When the other three saw this scene, they all felt incredible.

The princess of war looks weak, and her courage is really big!

Hongxiu didn't understand why that disgusting bug was kept.

"War Princess, let the slaves clean up. ”

A cold light flashed under Mu Zhixi's eyes, looking at Xiao Qingya on the bed.

"For the princess, I will inspect the princess's clothes and bedding!"

"But the princess is now weak......"

"Right now!" Mu Zhixi's eyes were slightly cold, and she felt that this matter could not be delayed.

For the first time, Hongxiu felt that the aura on Princess Zhan's body was so powerful that she didn't dare to disobey.

According to what she said, Concubine Yang and Hongxiu took off Xiao Qingya's clothes together.

Concubine Yang couldn't help but ask, "Why do you want to check the clothes and bedding, is there a problem with them?"

Mu Zhixi soaked those clothes in water and sprinkled a layer of medicinal powder in the water.

Then, she picked up a Gu worm and put it in the water.

Soon, the Gu worm was alive and well, and it swelled rapidly.

The water also slowly turned red.

Mu Zhixi was more sure of her guess and said slowly.

"The princess's clothes are washed every day, especially the close-fitting clothes, and those people poison the princess through the clothes. ”

Concubine Yang retorted and blurted out, "How is it possible! There are so many insects, you won't be able to find them, right?"

Hongxiu echoed.

"The slaves and maids will check, and they haven't found any bugs. War Princess, is there a mistake?"

"That's because, in the beginning, they were all eggs, and besides, are you sure every piece of clothing has been checked?"

Mu Zhixi looked at Hongxiu sharply.

In her gaze, Hongxiu was also unsure.

There seemed to be a time when the clothes were sent by other maidservants......

Boom!

Concubine Yang kicked over the basin of water, her eyes scarlet.

"Who the hell is it!Who is it that deliberately harms Qingya!!"

Outside, Xiao Yiyan heard the movement in the house and personally knocked on the door to ask.

"Xi'er, what's wrong?"

Through a door, Mu Zhixi replied calmly, "It's okay, Lord Wang." ”

Inside the house, Concubine Yang's emotions were a little excited.

She hugged Xiao Qingya and talked to herself.

"We can't go on like this, the concubine is going to beg the emperor, let's go back to the palace, it's safer in the palace...... Qingya, don't be afraid, the mother will protect your ......"

Xiao Qingya thought of the experience of the past few days, and her heart palpitated.

However, if she just left and let the person who harmed her go unpunished, she was not reconciled.

"Fifth Emperor Sister-in-law, is there a way to find that person?"

Mu Zhixi's expression was indifferent and calm.

glanced at Xiao Qingya and Concubine Yang, and slowly spoke.

"To be honest, it's not difficult to find out the palace people who do it directly. The hard part is to find out the mastermind behind them.

"That's why I didn't let you startle the snakes. ”

Xiao Qingya struggled to get out of bed, walked up to Mu Zhixi, and begged her.

"Fifth Emperor Sister-in-law, I understand everything you said, but I don't want to sit still anymore. Please help me, I know, you must have a way. ”

She is so sure because Mu Zhixi is so confident and calm.

For the first time, she felt that Mu Zhixi, a woman, was a good match for the Five Emperor Brothers.

Her fifth emperor brother will definitely not like a waste.

The corners of Mu Zhixi's lips lifted lightly, and she said quietly.

"Yes, there is. There is only one condition, you are not allowed to interfere, and you can leave this matter to me with confidence. Can it be done?"

Concubine Yang and Xiao Qingya exchanged glances and nodded in tacit understanding.

"Yes. ”

After receiving the answer, the smile on Mu Zhixi's lips expanded a little.

Very good.

Next, it was their turn to fight back.
