Murong Xi saw that Concubine Zhen couldn't help but shed tears again, so she handed a handkerchief to Concubine Zhen, and then said softly: "Concubine Zhen, please speak slowly."
"Well, I remember telling you that His Majesty only visited Yuzhen Pavilion in this palace once. And that time after His Majesty saw me, he left Yuzhen Pavilion without staying overnight. I was very disappointed, but also happy.
Because I was forced to enter the palace, they arrested my family and coerced me into entering the palace to poison His Majesty. At that time, I had already poisoned the wine, but Your Majesty left without drinking. When I saw Your Majesty, I had already poisoned the wine.
I fell in love with him at the first sight. Naturally, I couldn't bear to poison him. Just when I was rejoicing..." Concubine Zhen briefly explained what happened next.
Only then did Murong Xi understand why Concubine Zhen tortured herself.
Because, although the father did not drink the poison that Concubine Zhen put in the wine, the father came into contact with Concubine Zhen, and what Concubine Zhen didn’t know was that these people poisoned Concubine Zhen. As long as the father came into contact with Concubine Zhen
, will be poisoned. And the father did touch Concubine Zhen's face that day. The poison was Man Diexiang. And the person Feng Mingye arrested that day was just the man in black who arranged to enter the palace to find Concubine Zhen. The man in black
People cannot tell Concubine Zhen, they can only admit that he is the one who poisoned her.
Just when Concubine Zhen was secretly happy, those people found her and told her that she had succeeded. Concubine Zhen was naturally confused. The man in black also explained to her that the poison she put in the wine was not poison, but poison.
The real poison had already been poured on Concubine Zhen. Concubine Zhen was dumbfounded at the time, and the man in black threatened her that he would need her cooperation in the future. The man in black could see that Concubine Zhen was unwilling, so he took advantage of her family
threaten.
Later, Concubine Zhen wanted to die, but was discovered by the man in black, who told her that if she died, her family would follow her to hell.
Concubine Zhen did not seek death again, because she knew that His Majesty would probably not come to Yuzhen Pavilion again. Later, the man in black asked her to find a way to seduce her father. As a result, someone poisoned her at this time. Although Concubine Zhen knew that someone
He poisoned her but didn't say anything. As time went by, Concubine Zhen looked like a sick man. The man in black looked at Concubine Zhen's appearance and didn't say anything.
I just told her to recover quickly and let her find another opportunity to test His Majesty's poisoning.
Their purpose was very clear. They were afraid that His Majesty would not be truly poisoned and would let her get close to Him again. Concubine Zhen knew that as long as she got close to His Majesty, the poison in His Majesty's body would speed up. So, she continued to be sick.
The arrival of Murong Xi made the poison in her body get better day by day. However, she was a little afraid that after she got better, those people would come to persecute her again. Who knew that someone could not help but still poison her. She
She discovered it when she took the medicine, but she had no intention of exposing it. She suppressed the pain in her heart until now.
After hearing the whole thing, Murong Xi sighed. Concubine Zhen was indeed helpless and she was punished.
She asked softly: "Mother Zhen, do you know who the person is who threatens you?"
Concubine Zhen shook her head, and then said: "I really don't know the person behind the scenes. Because every time I come into contact with him, it is his subordinates. And the only thing I remember is that they all have a flaming weapon on their wrists.
The mark seems to be like a tattoo, but it's fiery red. And every time someone comes, they bring something personal to their family."
"Well, I have written it down and will definitely investigate it clearly." Murong Xi replied.
"Back then, my father
My father was an official in the court, but he never thought of using me in the palace to gain benefits for him. I remember that during the Mid-Autumn Festival that year, my father took my mother and brother to the night market to watch the lanterns. In the blink of an eye,
My brother was nowhere to be found. My father and mother were frightened at the time and asked my servants to take me back to the house first. Then they summoned the servants and my father to look for my brother. They searched like this all night, but they couldn't find my brother.
Whereabouts. Who knew that when my father returned home, he actually saw his unharmed brother at the door of the house. After bringing his brother back to the house, my mother checked whether his brother was injured, but she saw a letter in his clothes. That letter
The content of the letter was to tell their father that it would be easy for them to take away their younger brother. This time, they would return his younger brother intact, and there was no guarantee that he would be missing arms or legs next time.
Their purpose was to ask my father to send me to the palace. At first, my father thought it was a prank and ignored it. In addition, my father did not want me to go to the palace and suffer, so they stepped up security in the palace. For a while, the palace
We were safe and sound, and this incident was forgotten by us. However, one day, she found her brother lying on the ground covered in blood in his yard. My mother was panicked, thinking that her brother was dead. She called a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
I found that the sword was all over my body, but fortunately there was no serious injury. My mother found a letter in my brother's house and gave it to my father. Of course I didn't know the content of the letter at the time, but I just thought that my father had read it.
The expression after the letter was very solemn. Later, my father met me in the study and handed both letters to me for me to read by myself. The content of the second letter was very rude and told me to give it to my father this time.
A warning, they have already mastered the sword wound on my brother, so it is just bleeding. However, they really can't guarantee that they will do it so lightly next time. Please father think twice and get me into the palace, otherwise
, it might kill the whole family next time. I knew that my father really had no idea, so he let me make my own decision. Of course I would not let anything happen to my family, so I agreed to enter the palace. I didn’t expect that the day before entering the palace.
, a man in black gave me the poison. Seeing that I wanted to ask, he told me that the medicine would not kill anyone, so I didn’t need to ask anything. I just had to obey and don’t tell my father, otherwise I would be killed and the whole family would be killed.
They were buried with me. I just told you everything that happened after that. Because every time they saw me, they looked very similar to you now, so I misunderstood that you were one of those men in black." Concubine Zhen said.
Before entering the palace, she told them how those people threatened them. She didn't even see the appearance of those people. Every time they met, they were dressed in black and their faces were covered with veils. So, when Murong Xi came in, she
There was no surprise. Otherwise, she wouldn't have said those words.
"It's really disgusting, things are like this. You don't have to worry that when you get close to your father, his poison will accelerate. Because after you are poisoned, the poison that caused the deterioration of your father has lost its effect. This is what they
You don’t know anything about it, so you don’t have to worry about it anymore. Moreover, I suspect that the person who threatened you is from Nanzhao Kingdom, because the one in my father’s possession is Mandiexiang, which is the secret medicine of Nanzhao Kingdom. You
Don't worry, I will find a way to find out who is trying to murder my father. However, Concubine Zhen, the poison in your body must be detoxified. If this continues, you may not even be able to survive this year." Murong Xi said slowly.
.
"Xier, if you can really find these people and catch them, I won't have any worries anymore. It doesn't matter if the poison on my body is not cured or not." Concubine Zhen said softly.
"No, it must be explained. Aren't you afraid that after you die, those people will be angry with your family? You
Do you believe those people's promises to you? If so, then I don't need to investigate. Anyway, now that my father's poison has been cured, if Concubine Jing and Lan Bin are really sent by those people, I will let them
Just keep an eye on them. As for your family, you don't care about it yourself, why should I care about them." Murong Xi was angry that Concubine Zhen didn't cherish life, so she said this deliberately.
"Xier, you said the poison on your father's body has been cured?" Concubine Zhen's voice became softer, but there was surprise in her tone.
"Yes, I don't need to lie to you, do I? Besides, I risked being discovered and sneaked into the palace. I didn't expect to hear what you and Caiyi said as soon as I entered the palace. So, I know you are innocent.
I promise you that if you plan to leave the palace in the future, I will also help you. However, you are not allowed to give up on yourself like this." Murong Xi said slowly.
After Concubine Zhen thought for a while, she breathed a long sigh of relief and said to Murong Xi: "Okay, I promise you. I will live well and I will definitely watch you find those people."
"That's right. Here, these five pills are detoxification pills. Take one pill a day and the poison in your body will be detoxified in five days. You don't need to drink the medicine, but you are not allowed to let anyone continue to make medicine for you.
Only in this way can you deceive the person who poisoned you. There are also these yellow bags of powdered medicine for self-defense, and the white ones are for tracking. If that person sends men in black again, you can secretly sprinkle them on him
When the time comes, I will have a way to track them, don't worry." Murong Xi said slowly.
Concubine Zhen looked at Murong Xi gratefully and nodded. She suddenly thought of something and asked, "Since Xi'er is back, why don't you go back to the palace? Don't you know that your father is very worried about you?"
Murong Xi smiled and then said: "I also know that you are also worried about me. Don't worry, my father already knows that I am safe and sound, but it is not convenient for me to return to the palace at this time. Also, don't tell me what happened tonight.
Caiyi and the others, it's not convenient to tell you these things, you will know them later. By the way, you have to be careful about Concubine Shu and Murong Ya. I'm leaving, so take care of yourself." After Murong Xi finished speaking, he left the room.
Concubine Zhen murmured to herself: "Don't worry, what happened today will be rotten in my stomach. Concubine Shu is the one who poisoned me, how can I not be on guard?" She just hasn't figured out why Murong Ya is here yet.
The hostility towards her is so deep.
When Feng Mingye saw Murong Xi coming out, she asked softly: "Is the matter settled?"
"Well, we'll talk about this when we get back. I'll go to Yunzhong Temple first." Murong Xi nodded and replied.
"Okay." Feng Mingye led Murong Xi towards the direction of Yunzhong Temple.
Soon, Shaoyao, who was guarding Yunzhong Hall, spotted Murong Xi's figure and said respectfully: "Master, why are you here?"
"I'm worried about Yan'er. Come and take a look at her. How about Yunzhong Temple?" Murong Xi asked worriedly.
"Master, don't worry, Concubine Shu has been here a few times in recent days. Most of the time, she just wanted to find out how the princess left the palace. When she couldn't find anything, she gave up. Your Majesty came here several times.
But he just looked at the princess from a distance and left. He must have felt guilty because he reprimanded the princess before." Shaoyao replied.
"Okay, then I'll go in and take a look. You can go back and rest first." Murong Xi entered the dormitory alone, and Feng Mingye stood guard at the door.
Murong Xi tiptoed into the bedroom, where Murong Yan had already fallen asleep. After she sprinkled a handful of medicinal powder on Murong Yan, she sat down next to Murong Yan with confidence.
