Hearing what Xi Yan said, Bei Mingchen felt very disappointed and said casually.
Xiyan suddenly realized that she might have spoken too directly just now.
Bei Mingchen had experienced so many unfortunate things. Xiyan thought that he must have been frightened for too long before he had such thoughts. According to the current situation, the reason why Bei Mingchen wanted such a thing
, most likely to deal with those who want to harm him!
He wanted such medicine, probably to protect himself and make those who wanted to harm her seriously ill without causing huge harm to their bodies.
Thinking of this, Xiyan only felt a little annoyed because she had spoken too bluntly just now. She walked slowly to his side, tilted her head, looked at him, and spoke to him.
"However, we can find ways to minimize the damage."
Hearing this, Bei Mingchen's eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at Xiyan intently, smiled slightly at her, and waited for her answer.
"Your Majesty, wait a moment."
As Xiyan spoke, he hurried back into the house and quickly ran out again, holding an exquisite medicine bottle tightly in his hand.
"Look, it's this thing. This poison does very little damage to people. The poisoned person will look as peaceful as if he is asleep."
Xiyan carefully handed the medicine bottle to Bei Mingchen's hand, and explained the power of this medicine carefully and in detail.
"Really?" Bei Mingchen took the medicine bottle excitedly and looked at her doubtfully, but his tone was filled with joy.
"What? Your lord, do you not believe in my medical skills?" Xiyan looked at him playfully and said to him in a slightly angry tone.
"Believe in you, I naturally believe in you." Bei Mingchen said repeatedly, and happily put away the bottle of medicine.
"Yes, but the prince still needs to be more careful when using it. Although the toxicity of this medicine is very small, it should not be used excessively." Xiyan thought for a moment, then added, what should be explained should still be explained.
arrive.
"Under normal circumstances, this much is probably enough."
Because she was afraid that her explanation was not detailed enough, Xi Yan continued to gesture. She stretched out her right hand and gestured in front of Bei Mingchen. It should only be as big as a fingernail.
"Well, okay, I have remembered everything." Bei Mingchen said with a slight smile.
This kind of poison does very little damage to the human body. Because of this, its production process is very cumbersome. Even Xiyan himself doesn't have much. However, since Bei Mingchen needs it, just give it to him and save less for himself.
Just a little is enough, and the rest will be given to Bei Mingchen.
She was sure that there must be very few people in the world who could master such a medicine. Except for the people from Yaowang Valley, almost no one could develop such a medicine. Xiyan still had such confidence.

Thinking of this, Xiyan couldn't help but feel a chill on her back.
Is this really just a coincidence?
She slowly turned her head in the direction of Bei Mingchen. In fact, she just wanted to take a look at Bei Mingchen standing behind her.
However, before she had time to look at him, she just caught sight of him with her peripheral vision, and then immediately withdrew her gaze.
Because when she just turned her head, Bei Mingchen glared at her coldly, his eyes were so cold and terrifying, giving people a feeling of unfamiliarity.
Xiyan only felt a cold light sweep over her, and it seemed like a sharp blade, as if it was about to swallow her into the boundless darkness.
She turned her face away suddenly, and was so frightened that she almost sat on the ground. She couldn't help but sucked in a breath of cold air, bit her lips tightly, and held her clothes tightly with her right hand. Her mood
I can't recover for a long time.
But, she made such a big fuss, how could His Majesty not notice it?
"What's wrong? The Queen Mother's condition is very serious?"
Seeing Miss Xiyan's panicked look, Bei Mingshuo hurriedly asked her with concern.
Xi Yan was startled, and then she got out of those bad thoughts and slowly came back to her senses.
"Oh, no, ma'am... the Queen Mother's condition is not very serious." Because she was still a little shaken, Xiyan stuttered a little while speaking, and her breathing was uneven.
Xi Yan tried her best to calm down her emotions, and after a moment, she added.
"The Queen Mother has always been in good health, and this illness is not very serious. It will not have a great impact on the Queen Mother's health. Your Majesty can rest assured."
"Well, girl, is there a cure?"
Xiyan nodded silently.
"I have found a way to cure the Queen Mother. It only takes seven days and she needs to be nursed back to health every day." Xiyan said confidently.
"That's very good, then I'll do it for you, Miss." Upon seeing this, Bei Mingshuo breathed a sigh of relief.
In this case, he can let go of his hanging heart. He thought for a while and then added another sentence.
"If you need anything, girl, just ask."
"Yeah, yeah." Xiyan agreed repeatedly.
Having said this, Bei Mingchen, who had been standing silently beside him, finally spoke.
"In this case, why don't I and Miss Xiyan live together in the palace temporarily, so that I can take care of the imperial grandmother by her side."
At this moment, Bei Mingchen's expression looked relaxed and natural, and what he said seemed to be well-behaved and sensible. He had returned to his handsome, filial and sensible appearance. It was completely different from the fierce appearance that Xi Yan had seen just now. He was completely different.
"That's very good. If you have this filial piety, your royal grandmother will definitely recover as soon as possible."
Bei Mingshuo nodded and said happily. He then ordered the little eunuch beside him to prepare a room for the two of them.
"Xiao Suzi, go and get ready."
"My slave obeys your orders."
"Okay, you two go about your business first, and I won't interrupt you."
"Farewell to my father."
"Farewell to Your Majesty."
After saying that, Bei Mingshuo left the Queen Mother's room, leaving only Bei Mingchen and Miss Xiyan there to take care of the Queen Mother.
"Come, I will help you."
After His Majesty left, Bei Mingchen put away his previous airs and slowly squatted next to Xiyan. However, his sudden approach made Xiyan feel uncomfortable, and she subconsciously dodged.
Slightly unnatural.
"Um, ah, okay."
Bei Mingchen guessed Xi Yan's concerns, but he pretended not to see it at all and pretended not to know anything.
At this moment, he was following Miss Xiyan's instructions, handing her the bottles and jars she needed, sometimes washing handkerchiefs, sometimes burning scissors.
Xiyan didn't pay too much attention to what happened just now. Since Bei Mingchen didn't want to talk, she didn't ask. There were too many spies in the harem, and if she wasn't careful, she would cause trouble for Bei Mingchen.
Anyway, judging from the current situation, Xiyan only hopes that the Queen Mother can recover as soon as possible.
Both of them were busy with the things at hand, thinking about detoxifying the Queen Mother as soon as possible. Both of them said nothing and just cooperated tacitly, as if what just happened never happened at all.

During this period, Xiyan and Bei Mingchen were very busy in the palace, and they didn't even have much time to chat.
Xiyan had been brewing medicine for the Queen Mother since she got up in the morning. Because the characteristics of this poison were rather strange, and considering that the Queen Mother was already old, the medicine Xiyan prepared for her was extremely mild, so she had to cook it herself.
.
And Bei Mingchen was on the side, washing dishes, washing dishes, cleaning up medicine residue. He was willing to do everything by himself. He even wanted to do some menial and tiring work himself. In fact, Bei Mingchen had never thought of taking advantage of this.
Given the opportunity to show off, he only wanted to protect and take care of Xiyan. He was afraid that she would not be able to take care of many things when she first moved into the palace, and many places would be inconvenient.
In short, wherever Xi Yan is, Bei Mingchen will follow.
Of course, everyone now knows that the most important thing now is the Queen Mother's health, so no one happened to her during this period.
However, after this incident, everyone praised Bei Mingchen. They all lamented the fifth prince's filial piety. Even he himself did not expect that he would gain everyone's good reputation unexpectedly.

These days, the Queen is still imprisoned in Nanming Palace and knows nothing about what is happening outside.
She often sits alone in the yard. It is still the twelfth lunar month of winter, and the cold wind is still biting. Especially late at night, the biting cold wind blows on her face, sometimes like a knife.
Even so, the queen was still unwilling to return to the house. Although the breeze in the yard was a little cool and uncomfortable, only in this way could she feel that she was awake.
That night, the queen was sitting quietly in the courtyard as usual. She suddenly heard some movement in the corner. She looked in the direction of the sound. For a moment, it seemed like a black shadow flashed past.
It seems like someone climbed over the palace wall of Nanming Palace.
"who?"
Nowadays, the sky was very dark, and the Queen could not clearly see the figure of the man. She just asked alertly. As she spoke, she walked cautiously towards the source of the sound.
"My dear, don't panic, it's me."
A woman was speaking in a low voice. The voice was very small, but it sounded very familiar.
"Zhen'er, why are you here?"
The empress took a closer look and saw that the person who ventured into Nanming Palace was none other than Zhen'er. She was shocked and asked doubtfully.
"My dear, I haven't seen you for a few days, how come you are so thin?"
Zhen'er did not answer the Queen's question, but looked at the Queen with concern, and couldn't help but sigh with distress as she looked at it.
"It doesn't matter, I'm fine."
As the queen spoke, she took Zhen'er to a relatively remote part of Nanming Palace, where they were the only two masters and servants.
"Queen, don't worry, I will definitely rescue you." Zhen'er said swornly.
