Houfu poisonous girl can't be bullied

Chapter 267 Daughter-in-law Come Home With Me!

Murong Jing's words that had no room for maneuver blocked Li Fengyi's prepared words of persuasion, but he couldn't turn his back on him yet, so he could only smile stiffly and say, "The king of Jinling is coming to Beijing this time. There must be a plan, and I want you to find out its purpose, what does Xiao Jingcheng think?"

His original intention was to let Murong Jing catch him back, but now it's just to investigate, if he took a step back, Murong Jing should also take a step back, right?

It's just that Li Fengyi didn't consider at all how much resentment the Lord Jingcheng felt when he dared to come to see his wife early in the morning but was intercepted in the imperial study. Even though he had already given in, Murong Jing still said the same thing as before: "The minister and the King of Jinling There is no intersection, as for the investigation, the emperor has more than one person available by his side, and I hope the emperor will take it back."

The smile on Li Fengyi's face disappeared instantly: "Are you trying to resist the order?"

"I dare not."

There was no fear in Murong Jing's tone: "I would like to do my best for His Majesty, but Ling Yao is pregnant and there are troubles at home, I am afraid of delaying the errand assigned by the emperor, so I declined first. "

Although these words are suspected of using the daughter-in-law as a shield, this is indeed what Lord Jingcheng thinks in his heart, and even for the sake of the Queen Mother, Li Fengyi will not force Murong Jing to take over the Jinling King.

Coming out of the imperial study room, Murong Jing let out a sigh of relief and went straight to the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

Although Li Fengyi has just compromised, but the king's heart is unpredictable, who knows if he will invite Chu Lingyao to force him to fight Jinling King in the next moment?Coupled with the fact that Qixiadan was not clear, the palace was no longer safe, he came today to take Chu Lingyao back to Jingchenghou's mansion.

"Xiao Jingchenghou is really worried about mourning here."

Even though Li Fengyi intercepted him to go to the imperial study, Murong Jing entered the Palace of Compassion and Peace within a few hours, so naturally he couldn't escape being teased by the Queen Mother.

But these days, Murong Jing is used to it, and he is in an urgent mood, so he doesn't make rounds anymore: "This month, I have been greatly loved by the Queen Mother, but it is not convenient for Ling Yao to be in the palace, so I still take her back. house."

Although she was a bit reluctant to part with Chu Lingyao, the Queen Mother did not do much to stop her. After all, Zhixi's matter was ahead, and Qixia Dan would appear again, and the current palace might not be safer than his Jingchenghou's Mansion.

After Chu Lingyao said goodbye to the Queen Mother, Murong Jing supported his wife and bowed in salute: "Your Majesty will leave."

"Concubine Li is here—"

The eunuch's voice sounded at the right time. Although the Empress Dowager didn't like Concubine Li very much, there was nothing wrong with this man's behavior. The morning and evening were not bad, but Chu Lingyao was no different from Concubine Li. For friendship, he was only supported by Murong Jing and walked out.

"Hey, isn't this Hou Ye and Ling Yao? It's a coincidence."

After all, they met at the gate of the Palace of Compassion and Peace, and Concubine Li greeted her, so naturally Chu Lingyao and the two could only respond: "See you, Concubine Li."

"Don't be too polite."

Concubine Li looked at Murong Jing and then at the main hall behind them, her face full of surprise: "Is Ling Yao going out of the palace?"

Chu Lingyao just nodded, and didn't appear to be chatting at all: "Concubine Lao Li is concerned."

The two didn't know each other very well, they only exchanged a few words and then left each other, but they didn't want Chu Lingyao to fall to the side without standing upright. Concubine Li passed by.

Concubine Li was obviously caught off guard, she screamed and fell to the side, the maids and eunuchs rushed to help her, and Chu Lingyao was also in a hurry to apologize: "I offend Concubine Li, my wife apologizes."

That's the way it is said, but Jing Chenghou is by the side, and the queen mother is still in the main hall, no matter how annoyed Concubine Li is, she can only act generously: "I'm fine, it's better if Ling Yao doesn't break it. .”

But after all, it was because of Chu Lingyao's big loss of composure. Concubine Li hurried into the Palace of Compassion and Ning after dropping these words. Murong Jing and his wife looked at each other and were about to turn around and leave when they found a small black bag lying on the ground .

Chu Lingyao sized it up and looked at Murong Jing: "Is it Li Concubine's?"

Murong Jing frowned: "It's probably true. Could it be that we still have to wait here to return it to her?"

"It looks like there are some pills in this bag. Could it be that they are going to be presented to the Queen Mother?"

Chu Lingyao looked inside the Compassionate Ning Palace: "Otherwise, we'll wait around here for a while to see if anyone comes out to get it."

Murong Jing didn't object to Li Fengyi's errand with his daughter-in-law just now, but the two of them didn't wait for Concubine Li's person to come out to find the kit, but met Bai Aoshuang who came to check the empress dowager's pulse.

"Didn't you say you're going out of the palace? Murong Jing is so impatient, why are you two still here?"

After greeting someone casually, Bai Aoshuang's gaze quickly focused on Chu Lingyao's hand: "What is this?"

"It looks like Concubine Li accidentally dropped it."

Chu Lingyao handed over the kit: "I wanted to wait for her to come out and return it, but now is just right, you can bring it in."

"What is it?"

Bai Aoshuang raised his hand and was about to open it, but Chu Lingyao couldn't stop him and could only follow this person, but Bai Aoshuang glanced at the kit and his face changed drastically: "You said it fell from Concubine Li?"

"It should be, she was the only one who went in."

Chu Lingyao frowned: "Is there something wrong with this kit?"

"There is no problem with the kit."

With a solemn expression, Bai Aoshuang turned over the opened bag for others to see: "But there is a serious problem with the contents."

There were two red pills in the kit. Chu Lingyao and Murong Jing looked at each other and said in unison, "Qixia Pill?"

Mother Du was specially called into the palace to take care of Chu Lingyao, so she naturally followed behind Chu Lingyao at this moment, when she suddenly heard the word "Qixia Pill", the old nun also changed color: "This is that Qixia Pill" Dan?"

"Yes."

Finally found the source of the medicine, Bai Ningshuang's tone could not help but be filled with joy, but compared to that, Chu Lingyao's complexion was a bit ugly: "Are you sure this is Qixia Dan?"

"This elixir got the name 'Qixia' because of its red color, it's unmistakable."

Murong Jing raised his spirits long before Chu Lingyao asked, but he still didn't expect this person to turn around and walk back before Bai Aoshuang could finish his sentence. He hurriedly chased after two steps before blocking him: "Ma'am, what are you doing?" what to?"

"Since Concubine Li has brought Qixia Dan to the Compassionate Ning Palace, she must be uneasy and kind, the Queen Mother is in danger."

"Calm down." Murong Jing had no intention of giving in at all: "Regardless of whether this matter was instigated by Concubine Li or not, she had put in so much effort into poisoning before, she would never expose herself so recklessly now, and Bai Aoshuang would Pay attention to the queen mother, don't worry."

Chu Lingyao is pregnant at the moment, so Murong Jing will naturally use all means to take her away from the danger zone.

Noticing Murong Jing's look, Bai Ao Shuang nodded naturally, and after the initial panic, Mama Du also came to her senses and persuaded Chu Lingyao to take care of herself, but the Lord obviously didn't mean to be persuaded: "There's the Queen Mother inside, I'm How can you rest assured!"

Apart from the Marquis of Weiyuan, the Queen Mother can be said to be her only family member. Even if reason tells her that staying here is useless, emotionally she still cannot control it.

There was pleading in Chu Lingyao's eyes, Murong Jing clenched his teeth, but in the end he still couldn't refuse his wife's eyes, turned his head and said reluctantly: "Then I will accompany you."

Others may not understand, but Murong Jing naturally understands Chu Lingyao's feelings for the Empress Dowager. Even if he really should take him home this time, it is inevitable that this person will not return to the palace through other means. Comparing the two , it is safer to control things within the known range.

"it is good."

Only then did Chu Lingyao smile, and he took the initiative to hold Murong Jing's clenched fist, and the two of them turned around and turned back to the Palace of Compassion.

Although he had already guessed that Murong Jing would compromise, but seeing that the young master who had always been unambiguous had now become a qualified gentleman who obeyed his words, Bai Aoshuang sighed helplessly before following him into the main hall.

The Empress Dowager always disliked Concubine Li, and the other party always seemed to ignore her when she came to greet her, but when she saw Chu Lingyao and the others who turned back, a smile appeared on her face instantly: "Why did Ling Yue come back?"

Due to the presence of Concubine Li, Chu Lingyao did not tell the story of Qixia Pill on the spot, but said: "Ling Yue is really reluctant to part with the Queen Mother, and I'm afraid he will continue to bother her for a few more days. I hope the Queen Mother will forgive me."

"What's the crime? It's too late for you to stay here and be happy."

The empress dowager had long since lost the impatience she had just faced with Concubine Li, and a smile almost overflowed from her eyes: "It's better for Hou Xiaojingcheng to get angry with the Ai family."

"I don't dare." Murong Jing said with a bit of resentment, as if she was robbed of her daughter-in-law and forced to smile, "I just hope that the palace gate will open sooner these few days."

"Hahaha……"

The Empress Dowager was amused by these words, and Concubine Li also forced a few laughs, she was really embarrassed, and Bai Aoshuang used to take the pulse, so she simply resigned and left.

Chen Lingyao took the opportunity to glance at Zhixi who had been standing by the side all the time, but he didn't see any unusual behavior from the other party, so he had to suppress the anxiety in his heart first.

The mood of "lost and found again" made the Queen Mother unable to close her mouth for a long time, until Bai Aoshuang finished her pulse diagnosis and said, "Zhixi, since Ling Yao is not leaving, you should put the things back."

After all, she was a person who used her heart, so the Queen Mother naturally kept Zhixi by her side. Chu Lingyao put on a smile and nodded to the other party, but his heart was full of coldness.

"Yes."

Zhixi still couldn't see anything unusual, so she backed away.

Bai Aoshuang never allowed outsiders to be present when he was taking the pulse. After Zhixi retreated, only a few of them and Mama Du were left in the hall, and Bai Aoshuang said: "The empress dowager's pulse condition is not abnormal, just follow my previous prescription. .”

Since the few people found Qixia Dan during lunch that day, the poison has never appeared again, but the calm makes people even more flustered.

"Okay, I'll trouble the doctor."

The Empress Dowager nodded, and waited for Bai Aoshuang to retreat before turning her attention to Chu Lingyao and the others: "The faces of you two have been gloomy since you entered the palace just now, but what do you want to say?"
