Rebirth of the Divine Doctor and Poisonous Consort

Chapter 164 Finding the real culprit (1)
"Sister, you must not say a word to Zhao Yun about what happened today. He is very afraid that I really want to avenge Xing Nuan, and that I will get into trouble. So you must keep it a secret for me!" Liu Xiran Seeing Princess Zhao not far away, she stopped and instructed Zhao Yin.

"Do you think I'm not worried about you? If it is really important to find out who is behind the scenes, what will you do? Don't blame me for not reminding you. Who was the person who opposed Xinghua the most when she returned to the palace? I'm afraid you will Don't you remember?"

After Zhao Yin's reminder, Liu Xiran remembered it, and then couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.When Xinghua was brought back to the palace to be named Concubine Xin, the entire palace did not dare to have a big celebration. It was because of the dissatisfaction of the empress dowager, and since Xingnuan entered the palace, she closed the door and never saw anyone again. people.She didn't come out until Xing Nuan "died".

If it was really the queen mother, Liu Xiran really didn't know what to do.Surely Xing Nuan wouldn't let her take such a risk to avenge her?However, the Queen Mother had already killed Xing Nuan a few years ago, and even killed her child. Wouldn't it be too suspicious if she did it again now?
"Look, I just thought of it. Xi'er, I'm not opposed to your revenge. I know that Xing Nuan is very important to you, but no matter how important you are, you are also from our Zhao family. I regard you as my biological sister." Look, if you really want to risk your life, I will be the first to say no. Do you understand?" Zhao Yin didn't sound like a joke at all.Liu Xiran could only nod obediently.

Isn't Xing Nuan still alive now?She didn't want to kill that person.She just wanted that person to suffer the same pain as Xing Nuan.

Before Zhao Yin and Liu Xiran entered the palace, they saw Zhao Yun waiting at the door.

"Look, even if I don't tell you, do you think you can hide it from him?" Zhao Yin dropped this sentence, sighed and walked into the mansion by himself.Zhao Yun came over and grabbed Liu Xiran's hand, "I heard from my mother that you have entered the palace, do you know how worried I am?"

Liu Xiran didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at him, but said, "I haven't seen Ru Wan for a long time? That's why I went to the palace to see her, what is there to worry about?"

"Really?" Zhao Yun pulled her shoulders, "Can't I see that you are guilty? Xi'er, I know you really want to express this for Xing Nuan, but you have to remember, what you have to deal with is not What simple hooligans, you have to deal with people around the emperor, and that person may not necessarily be a concubine, do you understand?"

Sure enough, both Zhao Yun and Zhao Yin thought of that point, but he was blinded by hatred, so he didn't think so far.In other words, you have to wait until the investigation reveals the truth before letting go, right?

"Yun, I know you are worried about me. I am not a cautious person. You know this very well. I can control myself. Can't you give me a chance to check it out? You just want to watch me Have you been living with a knot in your heart? Xingnuan is the most important person to me besides you, you can’t imagine that when I..." When I was reborn and woke up at the age of eight, I was faced with such a situation How much I want to learn from Xing Nuan her skills, so that I can stand on this life, don't need to be bullied any more, and can live with pride.

If there is no Xing Nuan, even if I wake up again, I don't know any extra skills, how can I have the opportunity to meet you, Zhao Yun, and how can I be with you?

Seeing Liu Xiran fell silent while talking, Zhao Yun had no choice but to let go of her shoulders, and whispered softly in her ear, "I know, how could I not know? But Xi'er... Forget it, if you insist on Investigate, I just hope you don't get yourself
Dangerous dilemma to go, you understand? "

"I understand, I understand, Yun, fortunately, Ru Wan has already promised to help me, so I don't have to bother to look up those information by myself. But..." Liu Xiran suddenly looked at Zhao Yun with worried eyes, "Ru Wan It seems that something is wrong, and she seems to be grounded by the emperor, and she is not allowed to come out of the palace to play. I don’t know if you know the inside story, but Ruwan refuses to tell, so I am naturally embarrassed to continue asking .”

This made Zhao Yun feel embarrassed. Ru Wan must have known the emperor's decision, and she was grounded because she was afraid that she would run away at such a critical moment.

It's ridiculous to say that although Ru Wan was born in the emperor's family, she has always been a restless princess. She was already very noisy when she was a child, and she often took herself and her sister to "do bad things". Now that I think about it, I will smile knowingly I can't remember how many times she said that she wished she was just the daughter of an ordinary family. She didn't need so many rare treasures, delicacies from mountains and seas. She just hoped that she could go anywhere freely without being restrained.

It is just such a person who doesn't want to be a princess at all, but now she has to fulfill the obligation of being a princess, let her a little girl shoulder the fate of this country, how can she afford it.After leaving the court this morning, the emperor told Zhao Yun that he had made a decision, and that the person who married Xiliao this time was Ru Wan.

The relationship between Xi'er and Ru Wan is so deep, if it wasn't for Ru Wan and her sister's help, how could they be together successfully?I haven't been able to repay Ru Wan's kindness, and now I'm going to watch her being sent to make a kiss.The life in Xiliao is so hard, even Ru Wan, who always said that she is not afraid of anything, can hardly bear it, right?

"Why didn't you speak suddenly? Your behavior made me even more uneasy. I'm mentally prepared, so you can tell me." Seeing that Zhao Yun hadn't spoken for a long time, Liu Xiran became even more worried. She Although a daughter's family doesn't care much about court affairs, they still have basic acumen.Ru Wan would act like that, but it was because the emperor wanted to win over some minister and force Ru Wan to marry.Selling out one's own sister in order to consolidate one's power, how can the position of the king of a country be so easy to sit on?
"Xi'er, it's better not to ask, I really have no way to tell you now, maybe there will be a turning point in a few days, just wait, I will give you the answer."

Although Liu Xiran wanted to continue to ask a few more questions, he finally gave up.For Ru Wanwei Nian to say something that even Zhao Yun couldn't say, I'm afraid it's not as simple as getting married.

It might be a good thing for me if I know the answer later.

On the second day, Liu Xiran didn't call Zhao Yin, and went to Ru Wan's place alone.She knew that Zhao Yin would be worried about herself. If she had known it would be like this, she would have thought of a way to go alone yesterday. There would be one less person to know the secret, and it would be safer.

When she went in, Ru Wan's state was similar to yesterday's, she just stared blankly at something.Seeing Liu Xiran coming, he lazily got up and dragged her to a corner.From this point of view, Ru Wan has gained something.

"How is it, Ru Wan, do you have any news?" Liu Xiran asked in a low voice.

Ru Wan nodded, "I'm afraid we really won't think of that person..." Liu Xiran's heart skipped a beat, could it really be the Queen Mother?It stands to reason that there won't be any maids around the queen mother, and they should all be nuns who have served her for a long time.

"Who is it?" Liu Xiran felt his throat tighten when he asked these two words, and he couldn't hide his nervousness at all.

"When I found out yesterday, I really wanted to give myself a knife to relieve Xinghua's anger. I didn't expect that all the mistakes were made by me alone." Ru Wan gritted her teeth with hatred, but still didn't say the main point , Liu Xiran couldn't help tugging at her sleeve and urged, "It's Murong Xue!"

No wonder Ru Wan is so angry with herself.After all, the idea of ​​letting Murong Xue and Zhen Ping enter the palace was her idea on behalf of the emperor, in order to appease the two ministers who were making a fuss. Later, Xing Nuan returned to the palace only under her hand. She didn't expect that Murong Xue's subordinates would actually harm Xing Nuan, and now she was afraid that she wished to cut that Murong Xue into pieces.

"Obviously it was because of me that she had the opportunity to enter the palace, but in the harem, not only did she not show any gratitude to me, but she also arrogantly ignored me every day. I didn't expect her to It will also harm Xinghua, I can't wait to tear her up now!"

"But..." Liu Xiran rolled her eyes, but she had her own thoughts, "I don't think Murong Xue is so smart."

"How do you say that?" Ru Wan was puzzled.

"Princess must remember that she and Zhen Ping fought with me in Zhao Wang's mansion before, right? Murong Xue's temperament can be seen through at a glance, and she can hardly hide her thoughts. The princess still remembers why she was killed. Drive out of the palace? In fact, all the bad things were suggested by Zhen Ping for her. She just thought that doing so would bring her own benefits, so she really did it. She is not a smart woman, and she It's always easy to listen to the advice given to her by others, and use it without hesitation about the consequences." Liu Xiran's words made Ru Wan's doubts deepen.

"If it wasn't for her, wouldn't it be difficult to find out who was giving her advice behind the scenes? Her current position is the highest in the harem. Concubine Zhen has never been promoted to the highest level after being with the emperor for so many years. The level of a noble concubine. In fact, at that time, the emperor just wanted her to shield Xinghua from the knife, but I didn't expect Xinghua to be like this... it really made her pampered."

"You said Yingchun was sent to Xinghua by Murong Xue's subordinates, but Murong Xue and Zhen Ping did not enter the palace not long ago, so there must be a master before Yingchun, right?" Liu Xiran calculated the two of them and Xing Nuan. The time in the palace is only ten days before and after.It's not easy at all for a court lady to be so devoted to her, even willing to risk her life, within ten days?
In this way, it seems that Zhen Ping has also been crossed out from the list.But Liu Xiran has already seen her fierceness, so she can't take it lightly.

"I did check this, but do you know? That Yingchun seems to have appeared out of thin air. Except for staying with Murong Xue for a few days, I couldn't find any information before!"

Liu Xiran's heart trembled, could it be that the clues were broken just like that?Can't go on after finding Murong Xue's head?But, is Murong Xue really that smart?As soon as she was favored, she looked arrogant, and she probably made a lot of enemies in the harem. She hasn't been brought down until now, and someone must be on guard for her.

"Ru Wan, do you know the relationship between Murong Xue and Zhen Ping in the harem?"###Chapter 169 The person who was decided to marry

"This... It seems that Zhen Ping has never been favored by the emperor's brother since she came in. She has been living in a side hall, almost to the point where no one cares about her. As soon as Murong Xue came in, she used her ability to act like a spoiled child to stay in the emperor's house." Beside her brother, after Xinghua's accident, she became even more pampered and made Concubine Zhen very angry. But she really didn't hear any communication with Zhen Ping. You can't even touch your face."

This is really strange.Originally, after knowing the news of these two people entering the palace, Liu Xiran felt that Zhen Ping would be the first to win the emperor's favor with her ability to play tricks on people, and Murong Xue, who has always been obedient, should be buried in the dust Among them, I didn't expect that the two of them would switch positions. It was Murong Xue who was favored, but Zhen Ping was drowned in the dust.But... how does Zhen Ping look like a person who would be willing to live like this?In such a small place as the palace, she wished she could do her best to get Zhao Yun's gaze, but in the palace, on such a big stage, would she rather be hidden in a corner?
Heh, how can Liu Xiran believe this?
"What's the matter, you seem to have some thoughts?" Seeing that Liu Xiran had been thinking about what she said, Ru Wan waved her hand in front of her to bring her back to her senses.

"It's nothing. I just don't think things are that simple. Princess, have you ever seen Yingchun?" That Yingchun was buried as a concubine, and she got a lot of tears from the emperor. It seems worth it up.

"Yes, I have, but I don't remember her appearance very much. Xinghua is usually a reclusive person, and she doesn't even do things like admiring flowers in the back garden. The caring people around her were sent to her by you." That's it, she doesn't pay attention to the rest, so what should I pay attention to?"

What Ru Wan said was not unreasonable.Liu Xiran nodded slightly, "I'll ask Xing Nuan again, she has a good memory, she won't forget what that court lady looked like, she is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but now she doesn't have any hands. Well, I don’t know if I can draw that maid, so that I can identify it and know who is behind it.”

"I originally thought that you would give up after finding out this. I didn't expect you to say so much, which made me doubt my own judgment. At first, I also thought that it was impossible for Murong Xue to think of such a thing. I came up with an idea, but the clues were broken again. I have nothing to do, but since Xi'er, you decided to continue the investigation, I, Ruwan, will help you to the end. Anyway, I don't have much time now, and I'm not afraid of offending anyone. "

"Say something like that again!" Liu Xiran frowned, not knowing what Ru Wan was referring to, she was extremely worried, "You know, I asked Zhao Yun about you yesterday, and he is also a I won't say a word, you don't know the uneasy feeling in my heart. It's just terrible!"

Ru Wan looked at her frowning, and her own face was also gloomy, "I originally wanted to keep you and Yin'er a secret until the end, but I know that the two people who are most sad must be you. In addition to grounding me, Brother Huang, Apart from persecuting me, he won't even come out with a big truth, so I see through him. Why did I think he could win Xinghua's heart back?"

"Ru Wan, the more you behave like this, the more I worry about what's going to happen to you. It's better that I don't know." Liu Xiran stamped her feet in hatred for a moment, not knowing what to do.

"Forget it, you will know sooner or later. Do you know that Xiliao is pressing on the border now, and the troops sent by the emperor's brother are retreating steadily, and they are almost unable to hold the few cities on the border. In such a situation, Now, there is only one way he can think of!" Ru Wan was still sneering, but Liu Xiran clenched her hands tightly.

"Ru Wan, could it be... Could it be..." Liu Xiran couldn't even speak for a while, she looked at Ru Wan, and felt a trace of sadness in her heart, she never thought about this The princess who has always wanted to live an ordinary life and spend her life in peace and contentment will one day meet such a fate.She knew that Xiliao had been harassing the frontier, but she never thought about going back to this point, to the point where she had to go and get married.

The survival of this country is actually placed on Ru Wan's shoulders, how can Ru Wan bear it?
"If you count the time, there is still one month before I will marry far away and go to Xiliao, and the journey will be long. I originally thought that if I really had the chance, I would definitely want to run away and take all my money away." Leave everything behind and ignore it, become a runaway princess, and have your own life, but...but how can I do this?" Ru Wan shook her head sadly.

Because this is not her own fate, and what she is involved in is never just her own life.The purpose of the marriage is to calm down the war, so that those soldiers don't have to pay so much blood and there is no way to exchange for a victory. She knows that she will be praised and recorded in the annals of history forever, but how can a little girl like her think about it? What do you want?What she wants is not a happy and healthy life, what she wants is the simplest things in this world, but what outsiders see is her identity. She is a princess, born with a golden spoon in her mouth. Growing up with the support of thousands of people, wearing silk and satin, eating delicacies from mountains and seas, and never tasted a single bit of suffering in the world.

But how could those outsiders feel her pain?What she hated the most since she was a child was being surrounded, praised, admired and admired by others. She would often slip out of the palace to play, watching those common people live an ordinary life, wearing common clothes, eating simple food, His face can be covered with happy smiles, but he...he doesn't even know the true meaning of happiness.

It's not that eating well and dressing well is happiness, and it's not that being in a high position is happiness.She thought that the day she got married must be a great occasion.The entire capital city was covered with ten miles of red makeup. She put on her wedding dress and perfect makeup, and sat in a luxurious carriage. After walking for ten miles, the person she walked towards was not the one she loved.

There must be someone sighing in the crowd of onlookers.Fortunately, I am not a princess, otherwise I would marry far away to Xiliao just for the sake of marriage, without love and without dignity, how painful it would be to live.At that time, some people will realize that being a princess has never been so easy, why don't you do it?

"Ruwan! How...how can you hide so well in front of my sister and me? When you came here yesterday, you were still joking with us, making me think you were just disturbed by something, and after a while It will be fine, and then the emperor came, he must have come to put pressure on you again, right? He is not worthy to be your elder brother, he is so weak!" Liu Xiran had just finished saying this, but was covered by Ru Wan mouthed.
