princess regent lifted from her grave

Mu Fengyan also ordered Mu Qing to always pay attention to the situation of the states and counties and report at any time.

She and Mu Xiu took the carriage to the palace at high speed.

Presumably, Ye Lijue should have gotten the news of the locust plague, but he didn't know how they should deal with it next.

She also went to the palace to see if she could help Ye Lijue one or two.

General Li's study

Li Tingran was sitting at the table, looking fixedly at the woman sitting opposite him, with a bad tone,

"Who are you? How did you get into the mansion?"

The woman was dressed in strong clothes, with a haughty expression and a disdainful tone,

"It's not easy to enter your general's mansion? Just look at this thing and you'll know."

The woman took out a token and waved it in front of Li Tingran.

When Li Tingran saw the token, his expression was shocked, his eyes were cold and stern,

"Why do you have my grandfather's token? Where did you get it?"

The woman sneered, "Naturally, your grandfather handed himself over to me and asked you to help me do things."

"Impossible."

The woman glanced at Li Tingran, whose eyes were full of disbelief, smiled charmingly, and then threw out another letter,

"See for yourself."

Li Tingran glanced at the extremely flamboyant woman on the opposite side, then lowered his eyes and picked up the letter that the woman had just thrown out on the table,

Unfolding slowly, when seeing the familiar handwriting of the grandfather, this is the slightest bit of confidence in what the woman said.

After quickly reviewing the contents of the letter, surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he raised his eyes to look at the opposite woman with her hair tied up high, with a haughty expression, a lavender dress, and a slightly charming face, and then she asked,

"What is your relationship with that bamboo?"

Disdain flashed in the woman's eyes when she heard the words, her tone was as arrogant as ever,

"You don't need to know this. You just need to know that your poisoning mission ended in failure. Because of your failure, things will not go so smoothly in the future, and it may cause a lot of trouble. You have disappointed us."

Li Tingran's tone was a little dissatisfied.

"The poison you sent was faulty. How can you blame me? Because you didn't trust me, you sent two bottles of fake poison. You wanted me to take the blame for you, but you acted alone. The poison was thrown into the food of the people in the city, but what happened in the end? It was not solved by the prescription contributed by Miss Mu!"

Li Tingran's words fell, and joy flashed in his eyes.

On the day when Zhu'er delivered the poison, the more he thought about it, the more he felt strange. He didn't know why Zhu'er didn't let him open it to see clearly.

If, as Zhu'er said, after hearing it, the limbs will be weak,

But when Zhu'er was opened at that time, he also smelled it, and the situation of Zhu'er did not appear.

I have some doubts about Zhu'er's behavior,

And when it was opened for the second time, it was stopped by Zhu'er, how could such behavior not make him suspicious.

After Zhu'er left, he deliberately took it out to check, and found that the poison in the porcelain bottle had no smell at all, and he even smelled a faint tea fragrance.

In order to be confirmed, he also specially found animals for experiments.

As a result, after more than two days, the little animal is still alive and kicking, but he fed the whole two bottles of poison, and there was no response.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, he didn't know why Zhu'er acted like this,

If it was said that it was replaced by someone, he would not believe it if he was killed. In such a short time, who can enter his study to change the poison, even if he has time to sneak into his study, but the poison is in his secret compartment with a mechanism within,

His mechanism is so exquisite, he never believes that someone can open the mechanism of the secret compartment in such a short time.

So, he finally suspected that the poison was fake.

The smell at first was just a blindfold.

And, coincidentally, the Shengdu Medical Hall started to make soup, declaring that a plague was about to happen,

He later heard that someone really got the plague and recovered after taking the decoction.

At this point, it is suspected that the poison Zhu'er sent is fake, and the purpose is to wait for the matter to be revealed and let him come out to take the blame.

The woman on the opposite side frowned slightly, she didn't know that this matter happened.

The woman glanced at Li Tingran's expression, and smiled evilly at the corner of her mouth.

"What you said just now is true or false, it doesn't matter anymore, after all, this matter is dead without proof."

Li Tingran's eyes were full of shock after hearing the words, not sure what he believed,

"You mean Zhu'er is dead?"

"Yes, Zhu'er is dead, and Jie'er who provided you with the poison has also disappeared without a trace, but I guess it's more ominous than good."

Li Tingran's heart tightened, and he asked aloud,

"Zhu'er is exposed? Is the general's mansion also exposed?"

The woman sneered again,

"If your general's mansion is also exposed, you can still sit in the study safe and sound? Even if you are really exposed, what if they don't have any real evidence?"

Li Tingran heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words. He had been extremely cautious over the years, except for keeping important letters, the rest were reduced to ashes.

Li Tingran thought for a while, it's better for him to hide the things in this hidden compartment elsewhere.

The woman glanced at Li Tingran's expression, then smiled disdainfully again,

Li Tingran didn't know this, but she knew very well that even if Jie'er was taken away, she would not betray Li Tingran.

Not because Li Tingran is important, but because of their master,

As long as it is something that is not good for the master, they will keep their mouths shut, and they are very loyal to the master.

The master has a total of six apprentices. As far as she knows, Lan'er is dead.

She also pretended to be a passer-by yesterday and went to check the hidden house in the suburbs, and it was exactly as she expected,

Something happened to Jie'er and Zhu'er,

She went to inquire and found out that the officers and soldiers had come and carried out a dead maid from the inside and buried it locally.

As for Jie'er, the woman guessed that she might have escaped from the house, or she might have been assassinated, but she has disappeared now.

And those Xi'er and Huan'er who pretended to be Big Shuang and Little Shuang, they don't know how they are doing now by Mu Fengyan's side?

Jie'er and the other five grew up with her, and they never thought that she was the real smart person in the eyes of the master.

Master has known since she was a child that she is much smarter than Jieer,

But the master kept telling her not to expose her true abilities, so she kept acting mediocre.

Master also taught her a lot in private.

Every time the master asked her to serve her closely, the other five people thought it was because of her bad behavior, and the master would reprimand her again, and they also had the intention of taking pleasure in other's misfortune.

They didn't know that it was actually the master who taught them more.

Master has told her many times that she is Master's last trump card and also his pride.

So she kept it in her heart,

She is the master's fifth apprentice, named Xiang'er.

Now she is showing her true nature, Ruo Jie'er and the other five are here, seeing her like this, they will surely drop their jaws in shock.
