After passing through the book, Mr. Chief Assistant came to rely on me

The whole process lasted for two hours. When the last golden needle penetrated the Baihui point on Mrs. Cheng's head, Su Xiaoxi breathed a sigh of relief.

It was finally successful, so Mrs. Cheng would no longer have to worry about her life.

But Su Xiaoxi still frowned. According to Cheng Shubai, Mrs. Cheng was poisoned.

However, Su Xiaoxi used a gold needle to examine Cheng's mother's body and found no toxins.

Could it be that... Mrs. Cheng is not poisoned?

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxi shook her head and rejected it again.

If she wasn't poisoned, why would Mrs. Cheng fall into a deep sleep?

After thinking for a long time, Su Xiaoxi decided to wait for Cheng Shubai to come back and ask Cheng Shubai in person.

No matter who gave Mrs. Cheng the poison, she was going to find out the culprit behind it!

Su Xiaoxi had just pulled out the golden needles from several acupuncture points on Mrs. Cheng's head when a sound of footsteps came.

Then the door was pushed open, and Cheng Shubai walked in with a worried look on his face.

"How is it? Is my mother's life in danger?" Cheng Shubai asked anxiously after entering the door.

"It's stable for now." Su Xiaoxi responded calmly.

Cheng Shubai breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then ordered Mo Yi to prepare the carriage. He would take Su Xiaoxi back to the palace immediately.

"No need, she is also my mother-in-law, so I naturally have the responsibility to take care of her." Su Xiaoxi refused lightly.

Although Cheng Shubai knew Su Xiaoxi's worries, Cheng Shubai's eyes were filled with distress when he looked at Su Xiaoxi.

When Su Xiaoxi saw Cheng Shubai's eyes, her heart felt warm. She understood that Cheng Shubai was really doing her best.

"Okay!" Cheng Shubai couldn't defeat Su Xiaoxi after all, so he had to compromise.

The carriage stopped at the palace gate, and Cheng Shubai personally delivered Su Xiaoxi to the emperor.

Then, Cheng Shubai looked at Su Xiaoxi with gentle eyes and said, "Xiaoxi, remember to have three bowls of soup every day."

"Yes, I understand." Su Xiaoxi smiled at Cheng Shubai, "Mo will escort me back in a while."

"Okay!" Cheng Shubai nodded.

Then Mo Yi drove Su Xiaoxi away slowly in a carriage.

The carriage drove across the street in the opposite direction.

Mo Yi observed Su Xiaoxi through the window and found that Su Xiaoxi seemed to be thinking about something.

"Princess, what are you thinking about?"

Mo Yi couldn't help but ask, wondering if Su Xiaoxi had encountered any difficulties.

"It's okay!" Su Xiaoxi said lightly.

However, she was really just thinking that Beirong's envoy was still in the palace, and Nangong Che had not heard back yet.

Su Xiaoxi was also afraid that Mrs. Cheng wouldn't last long, and she couldn't guarantee that Mrs. Cheng's illness would be cured.

Because all this was too weird, and Su Xiaoxi was even more convinced that what Mrs. Cheng was poisoned with was not an ordinary poison.

At this time, the carriage suddenly bumped. Su Xiaoxi was caught off guard, swayed and almost fell down.

Fortunately, Mo Yiyan quickly supported Su Xiaoxi and prevented Su Xiaoxi from falling to the ground.

"Princess, are you okay?" Mo Yi asked.

"It's okay!" Su Xiaoxi came to her senses and shook her head.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the carriage stopped.

"Princess, there is someone blocking the road ahead."

As soon as Mo Yi finished speaking, he heard the sound of fighting.

Initially, Su Xiaoxi thought it was just an ordinary robbery, but she soon changed her mind. The sound of fighting clearly came from the south of the city, and became more and more intense.

Su Xiaoxi and Mo looked at each other. Mo Yi immediately understood and jumped out of the carriage.

Su Xiaoxi also opened the curtain and looked into the distance.

With just one glance, Su Xiaoxi's eyes narrowed slightly, and her eyes instantly became cold.

I saw a group of people surrounding them in the distance, fighting fiercely, but no one survived.

All those people died tragically, extremely cruelly, and some even died with their eyes open!

"Let's go." When Mo Yi came back, Su Xiaoxi had already restrained the terrifying murderous intention in her body.

"Yes!" Mo Yi responded and drove the carriage forward again, but the speed of the carriage was much slower.

These corpses are terrifying.

A stick of incense passed, and Su Xiaoxi's carriage finally arrived at the palace. Concubine Hui was already waiting here, waiting for Su Xiaoxi's return.

After all, she was her daughter, and Concubine Hui was filled with guilt. She had already ordered the palace servants to prepare bath water, hoping that Su Xiaoxi could rest for a while and eat something after bathing.

"Xiao Xi, please rest first. Concubine will come to talk to you some other time." Concubine Hui took Su Xiaoxi's hand and said softly.

Su Xiaoxi nodded in agreement.

"Mother, you have been tired for a long day. Go to bed early. I'm going!"

Su Xiaoxi turned around to say goodbye to Concubine Hui, and left directly.

At this time, Concubine Hui also sighed for a while. She knew whether Su Xiaoxi liked the palace.

However, Su Xiaoxi was still willing to come to the palace to visit her mother, and Concubine Hui was really pleased.

"Xiao Xi..."

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is still outside." Just as Concubine Hui opened her mouth to call out Su Xiaoxi's name, Yun Luo's reminder sounded beside her.

After hearing this, Concubine Hui raised her head and saw the emperor standing not far away.

"Chen and concubine see the emperor."

"Exemption."

Nangong Chen replied calmly.

Then, his eyes moved to Su Xiaoxi's disappearing back, and he remained silent for a long time.

"Xiao Xi..."

Nangong Chen couldn't help but call out, but he didn't expect that Su Xiaoxi would turn around and come back without any warning.

"Father!" Su Xiaoxi smiled lightly.

"Xiao Xi, I will do my best to cure Cheng Shubai's mother."

Nangong Chen said to Su Xiaoxi seriously.

Su Xiaoxi nodded, "Thank you, father."

"But Xiao Xi, how did you treat Mrs. Cheng? Is there any way to tell me?" Nangong Chen suddenly asked seriously.

Su Xiaoxi was stunned for a long time before replying: "Father, please help me keep this matter secret. I don't want to expose too much."

"This..." Nangong Chen frowned and looked at Su Xiaoxi thoughtfully.

"Father, do you believe me?" Facing Nangong Chen's scrutinizing gaze, Su Xiaoxi took a step forward and asked solemnly.

"I believe that Xiaoxi will never do anything for no reason."

"Since my father trusts me so much, please help me keep my secret."

"Okay." Nangong Chen nodded. He believed that Su Xiaoxi would not harm his family.

"What I wanted Mrs. Cheng to take was the detoxification pill, but the effect was not as obvious as expected." Su Xiaoxi lied this time.

"Antitoxic Pill?" Nangong Chen was confused.

Shouldn't the detoxification pill be refined by the palace?

Su Xiaoxi nodded and explained: "Yes, I got this detoxifying pill by chance. It is said to be able to detoxify hundreds of poisons. However, due to the scarcity of materials and the complicated refining process, there are not many. I also refined two pills occasionally. "

"Oh!" Nangong Chen nodded to express understanding.
