She had just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard footsteps approaching. When she looked closely, it was Xue Xueyao. She walked closer and frowned slightly when she saw that Xue Jinruo had already rescued the person.

Xue Jinruo ignored him. She tried her best to help Sheng Jingze and went to his room. However, Xue Xueyao did not help her from the beginning to the end. After Xue Jinruo settled Sheng Jingze, Xue Xueyao said with ill intentions: "It's really hard work, sister." I'm here, I'm here to deliver the news. Concubine Xian is unwell, please ask my sister to come over."

"Why didn't you say anything just now?" Xue Jinruo asked without looking back.

"Didn't I forget it just now? Now I just remembered it." Xue Xueyao said with a guilty conscience.

Xue Jinruo turned back and stared at Xue Xueyao for a moment, and she looked into Xue Jinruo's eyes without fear. The two looked at each other for a while, and Xue Jinruo sighed and said, "Don't use any crooked ideas."

"What bad thoughts can I have?" Xue Xueyao smiled and replied.

Xue Jinruo ignored her and looked back at Sheng Jingze. He was still unconscious, and then walked towards Concubine Xian's house.

Originally, she didn't think anything would happen to Concubine Xian. She always felt that Xue Xueyao had sent her away on purpose. However, when she approached Concubine Xian's house, she saw her door open. She felt a thump in her heart and ran away in a hurry. Got in.

As soon as she entered, she smelled a faint smell of blood. She took a closer look and saw that Concubine Xian's bed was covered in blood. She was lying under the bed and she didn't know whether she was dead or alive, and Baojuan was nowhere to be seen.

Xue Jinruo rushed forward in a few steps, picked up Concubine Xian and checked her breathing. He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Although the breath was very weak, it was still there.

Her eyes subconsciously focused on Concubine Xian's lower body. Sure enough, the blood stains came from here. She sighed. Judging from the amount of bleeding, the child probably could not be saved.

He hurriedly took out the silver needle and gave Concubine Xian a few injections. Then she began to cough violently. After she regained consciousness, she covered her stomach and shouted: "Child! My child!" Then she turned her attention to He looked at Xue Jinruo, but she just shook her head slightly.

When Concubine Xian saw this, she was immediately filled with grief and kept crying: "My mother is useless!"

"What's going on?" Xue Jinruo asked with a frown.

When Concubine Xian heard the question, she couldn't help but snorted: "It's Xue Xueyao."

"She came over to bring me food, but I refused, so she tied up my palace maid and fed me by force." Her eyes were full of resentment, "The Regent Princess, I'm afraid she has joined forces with Wenduri ”

"What!?" Xue Jinruo was shocked.

Wen Duri knew about the relationship between her and Xue Xueyao. If the two of them joined forces, they would know about her visit to Chaohuang Courtyard today.

The corner of her mouth couldn't help but twitch into a sneer. It seemed like Wen Duri's eyeliners were everywhere in the Great Yueshi Palace.

Since he could cover the sky with one hand, he should have known about it on the first day when the queen began to give the king poison. It was even possible that he had switched the poison that the queen gave to the king.

From this point of view, she and Concubine Yi had to join forces.

Xue Jinruo looked at the weak Concubine Xian on the bed and couldn't help but ask: "So, are you still willing to stay with Wen Duri?"

Concubine Xian shook her head, with a wry smile on her lips.

"What do you think?" she asked back, and then said to herself, "Princess Regent, the death of the monarch is definitely related to Wen Duri. I only hope that when Wen Duri dies, the new monarch can treat him kindly. Me, give me an inexhaustible amount of money so that I can enjoy my old age, and I will be content.”

Xue Jinruo nodded.

The most critical point at the moment is to find out what kind of poison the monarch has been poisoned with. From this point of view, the only breakthrough lies in Liuli.

……

At this time, Sheng Jingze had also woken up.

He didn't know why he got out of the house or how he fell into the water by some strange coincidence, but he was awake now.

He still remembered that when he was rescued, he vaguely saw Xue Jinruo's face. He thought it was her who saved him.

But now, he looked around the room, but he didn't see any trace of Xue Jinruo at all.

On the contrary, Xue Xueyao rushed over with a worried look on her face: "My lord, are you finally awake? You fell into the water and were unconscious all the time. I thought something happened to you. Thank God, God bless you. You'll be fine."

"Did you save me?" Sheng Jingze asked with a frown.

He always felt that things were too coincidental, why every time something happened to him, he clearly saw Xue Jinruo's face, but in the end it was Xue Xueyao who took care of him in front of the bed.

Xue Xueyao was a smart person after all, and did not answer the question directly. Instead, she smiled and said, "It'll be good if the prince wakes up. Quickly drink some water to moisten your throat. I just came out and saw you falling, and I was very worried. "

After hearing this, Sheng Jingze did not continue to ask, but acquiesced that it was Xue Xueyao who saved him.

Little did he know that Xue Jinruo had already found Liuli at this time.

Liuli looked at Xue Jinruo who came to visit in the middle of the night and already guessed the purpose of her visit. She couldn't help but chuckle and said, "What does the Princess Regent want to know?"

"You said you never gave the queen poison, did the queen know about it?" Xue Jinruo did not mince words, but said directly.

Liuli shook her head: "I don't know, but someone changed my medicine anyway."

Xue Jinruo thought for a moment and then briefly told her the situation before the king's death.

Unexpectedly, Liuli immediately turned cold and said, "It's Bai Chuan Wan."

"What?" Although Xue Jinruo was also familiar with medical skills, he had never heard of this thing before and couldn't help but ask.

"The Bai Chuan Pill is our master's unique secret book. If the king is really like that when he is about to die, it means that it was my senior brother who did it." Liuli said quickly, "The queen trusts me very much. She will not doubt me in the future. If there is something wrong with my poison, it means someone else has changed my medicine."

Having said this, the two of them suddenly had an idea.

"The queen's maid!" they both said in unison.

Liuli immediately began to think back to those people who served the queen.

Nowadays, most of those people are assigned to thankless places like the Clothing Bureau or the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It would be even more difficult to interrogate them one by one.

Liuli actually wanted to give up for a moment.

Xue Jinruo frowned, originally thinking that this matter would be like finding a needle in a haystack, but suddenly thought of someone: "Do you know Jade?"
