The concubine Jinghua first-class poisonous concubine

Chapter 217 Cooperate with
There was nothing else in his tone, only deep helplessness.

For a competitive person like himself, only when facing the emperor brother can he be helpless.

He let go of Dongfang Xu's hand, "Brother Huang, I remembered that I invited a few friends to drink together, so I won't have dinner with Brother Huang today."

Looking at the back that was going away, Dongfang Xu stood up slowly, as if a boulder was pressing on his heart.

The queen mother asked herself to be on guard against the emperor's younger brother from now on, but can she really do it?

In the dark, a pair of eyes stared closely at all this.

Xiyue thought to herself, since the queen mother released the custody of the prince's palace, her actions have become much more free, but the prince is busy with something, and she seldom meets him.

For the past two days, he still stayed in the study, and Xiyue, who was full of anxiety, had no intention of trying to please him.

Emperor Chen woke up, but there was still no order from Emperor Xiao.After being warned by the envoy, Xiyue didn't dare to act without authorization, and the prince treated him like nothing, and never had a meal with her since his wedding.

It seems that this scene just now should be reported to the messenger in exchange for the latest antidote.

The woman's changing expression fell into the eyes of Shen Qing who was behind her.

With his surveillance, Dongfang Xu appropriately let go of Xiyue's surveillance in order to better collect information, making her think that he ignored her.In fact, he wanted to create opportunities for her, waiting for her to contact Yi Country, so that Shen Qing could get in touch with more news.

At this time, Xiyue stopped in her tracks, and Shen Qing noticed that her gaze was on the ground, and she just paused for a moment.

"Let's go."

Before he could see clearly, Xiyue had already turned around, Shen Qing immediately restrained his expression to avoid Xiyue's suspicion, and had already recorded the position just now in his heart.

In an uninhabited bamboo forest.

"messenger!"

Xiyue's tone was somewhat urgent, the black-robed man turned around, but his eyes fell on Shen Qing, his eyes turned cold, "Can you trust that person?"

"Envoy, don't worry, he has already been poisoned by my ecstasy incense, and now he only listens to me alone. Envoy, does the emperor have new instructions? I have used up all the antidote..."

The black-robed man smiled heavily, took out a small medicine bag from his sleeve and threw it on the ground.Xiyue immediately chased after him nervously, and carefully picked up the medicine bag on the ground.

After that, she smiled gratefully, "Messenger, just now I saw the second prince of Chen Kingdom come to look for the crown prince. There seems to be something strange between them. I only heard them talking about Concubine Mei, and what happened back then."

"This time, the emperor wants you to meet this Concubine Mei."

Xiyue's expression froze. She didn't know why, but hearing the messenger's tone, she didn't want to take on this task from the bottom of her heart.

"Then... where is this Concubine Mei?"

"In the cold palace, let the guard of the east palace take you there, so that no one will find out, and then, give this letter to her."

The messenger took out a letter from his bosom, Xiyue took it carefully, a gust of cold wind blew by, and there was no figure of the man in black robe in front of him.

Leng Gong?Who is Concubine Mei?

night.

"Why does Emperor Xiao want to see Concubine Mei?" Dongfang Xu became more vigilant when he heard Shen Qing's words, "Then what did you say?"

"Your subordinate said that we need time arrangements. What instructions does His Highness have?"

Do you want Xiyue to go see Concubine Mei?Dongfang Xu hesitated, but he knew Xiao Huang's method, if he failed once, there would be a second and a third time.

Rather than letting things happen out of control, it is better to let it happen under your nose.

"Tomorrow, you will take her there, and I will arrange to give you a chance."

"Yes, this subordinate understands. Your Highness, this subordinate has already discovered the contact information between Princess Yi and the messenger."

"Oh, very good."

……

Xiyue held the letter tightly in her arms, Shen Qing really arranged everything, and they went all the way unimpeded until they came to that bleak cold palace.

Everything here was quiet and weird, Xiyue raised her head, for some reason, she always felt that there seemed to be dark clouds covering the palace, which made her feel timid.

However, Xiao Huang's order is irresistible.Xiyue took a deep breath, "You stay here and watch, if there is any movement, please let me know!"

"My subordinate understands."

Shen Qing watched the woman carefully push open the palace door to enter, and then restrained her expression.

His Highness explained that no one should be allowed to discover Xiyue's whereabouts, otherwise they might startle the snake.

In the quiet and deserted corridor, Xiyue could hear her own footsteps.

She didn't dare to speak out rashly, but she unconsciously held the dagger and poison powder that had been prepared in her hand.

That Concubine Mei actually lives in such a ghostly place!

Suddenly, there seemed to be a chill creeping up her back, making Xiyue stiffen involuntarily.

"Who is coming?"

A cold voice came from behind her, Xiyue turned her head slowly, and the one who caught her eyes was the old nanny who was as tall as a man and had an ugly face.

"Ah!" Xiyue let out a short cry, and immediately covered her mouth. She tried her best to calm down, but her trembling shoulders had already betrayed her current emotions.

Terrible Mammy!

"I, I'm here to see Concubine Mei, and I have something important to give to her."

Momo thought for a moment, in fact, she recognized at a glance that this was the princess of Yi Kingdom who married the prince not long ago, if not, how could she have been allowed to step into this cold palace alive.

"Come with me."

Xiyue clutched her throbbing chest and followed quietly.

The room was full of white satin, when Xiyue saw the face in front of her, which was so beautiful that it was not like a woman in the world, she forgot to breathe for a moment.

This is... Concubine Mei? !Looking at her appearance, she was almost the same age as herself.

"Oh? Princess Yi Kingdom is here, don't you have something to hand over to me?"

However, this slightly deep and hoarse voice brought Xiyue back to her senses.Realizing her gaffe, she immediately pulled out the hidden letter.

The ugly old nanny stretched out her hand to take it. She clearly saw Xiyue's slightly trembling little hand, and a disdainful smile rose from the corner of her mouth.

Concubine Mei opened the letter for a look, and then, her deep eyes drifted to Xiyue.This glance actually made Xiyue feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

"Emperor Xiao wants to cooperate with Ben Gong?"

This voice was somewhat dangerous, Xiyue couldn't help taking a few steps back, "I, I don't know... The emperor just ordered me to deliver the letter."

Concubine Mei didn't know if it was the conditions discussed in the letter that made her dissatisfied, so Concubine Mei gently threw the opened letter on the ground, "If you want to cooperate with Ben Gong, you must first see if you have the ability."

As soon as the words fell, Xiyue only felt a roar in her ears.

Afterwards, everything in front of me turned into nothing, and it seemed that there were countless rats and ants gnawing at her skin, penetrating into every nerve of her, rushing like a thousand troops, the unbearable The severe pain was actually a little bit worse than when she was suffering from poisoning in normal times.

Concubine Mei raised her eyebrows slightly, "Oh? It's not bad, after being poisoned by Ben Gong, she didn't pass out from the pain immediately."

Poisoned?After hearing these words, Xiyue's last sliver of reason disappeared. She curled up and fell to the ground, twitching uncontrollably, her face already showing convulsions

status.

After an unknown amount of time, the woman on the ground woke up faintly. She only felt that she was in a dream, and she straightened up numbly, as if her hands and feet were no longer her own.

A pair of huge cloth shoes appeared in front of my eyes, and the hoarse voice of the old mother came from above her head.

"The empress said that if you are still alive after three days, she will agree to cooperate with Xiao Huang. Otherwise, even the mere ant poison cannot be cured, and Xiao Huang is not qualified to negotiate terms with the empress."

Ant poison? !Of course Xiyue has heard of it. This is the unique poison technique of Lian Guowu's family. The poisoned person will feel the pain like being bitten by thousands of insects and ants. This kind of poison will slowly erode the poisoned person's will. The poison in the poison, this ant poison is three points more powerful, because just before the moment of coma, Xiyue already had the idea of ​​not wanting to live any longer.

After sitting on the ground for an unknown amount of time, the cold temperature pierced into her heart through the hard ground, Xiyue's eyes were red, and she didn't even understand why she had to suffer such pain.

At this moment, she felt that she might as well die.But...she knew that if she failed, the queen would never let her die so easily.

Standing up tremblingly, Xiyue felt that she was light and light, and she followed the way she came. At this moment, she no longer felt how terrible this cold palace was, because she was already in hell. .

Shen Qing, who was guarding outside the palace, looked up at the sky. After entering for so long, she still hasn't come out. Could something happen?But His Highness confessed that no matter what happened, he could not go in, otherwise his life would be in danger.

Of course Shen Qing knew the story behind this cold palace, it could be said that it was a taboo place in the Imperial Palace of Chen Kingdom, no one would want to know what would happen if he trespassed in the cold palace.

At this time, a pair of pale hands stretched out from the door and slowly pushed open the heavy wooden door.

Xiyue lowered her face, Shen Qing couldn't see her expression clearly.

"Princess?"

The woman stretched out her hands towards him, as if she wanted him to help her.

Shen Qing hesitated for a moment, then grabbed her wrist, the cold temperature was transmitted to his palm through her sleeve.

However, in the next second, Xiyue suddenly limp and fell into Shen Qing's arms.

"Miss?"

He wanted to push her away, but remembering His Highness's order, he stretched out his hand and shook her body, but Xiyue didn't respond at all, just drooped her head quietly.With a flash in Shen Qing's eyes, she slowly raised her face.

Those lips were shockingly purple.And every blood vessel on her face seemed to be clearly visible. The woman was completely unconscious and passed out.
