"Use poison? "This …" Zheng Ting Ze was obviously surprised.
That's right, although Mu Yan does not know who it is that is trying to harm Mu Yan, it seems like there are people constantly watching me from around Mu Yan. Last time in the Sky Prison, there was a masked man who attacked Mu Yan with a poisonous snake. Duan Mu Yan earnestly said.
"Good!" Actually, poison is just like saving a life: it is precise and ruthless. As long as you can harden your heart, using poison isn't difficult at all! However, there is one point that I can teach you about poison, but unless absolutely necessary, you cannot hurt others as you please. " Zheng Ting Ze originally thought that he would never enter that secret chamber for the rest of his life, but because of Duan Mu Yan, he made an exception in the end.
"Greetings, Master. Master, please receive Mu Yan's three kowtows!" Duan Mu Yan's actions once again caused Zheng Ting Ze to be extremely astonished.
"Third Princess!" Zheng Ting Ze initially wanted to stop her, but it was just that Duan Mu Yan's heart was already determined, and he also had the intention of continuing to carry on what he had learned throughout his entire life.
Just like this, under the careful guidance of Zheng Ting Ze, Duan Mu Yan gained a certain understanding of poisons. Furthermore, before leaving, Zheng Ting Ze specially gave Duan Mu Yan two bottles of pills: "This purple bottle contains' Fei Zi Xiao '. As long as a person takes it, if they don't take the antidote from another black bottle within three days, their entire body will rot and they will die. So you don't have to worry about them not believing you. If you consume the antidote, the effects will last for three months. After three months, they will need a second antidote, and then it will last for nine months, until they consume the fifth pill, only then will the poison in their body dissipate, Mu Yan, this pill is very vicious, I give it to you, believing that you will not kill any innocent people. Although you said that you wanted to avenge the First Prince, I guess that you want to deal with the Second Prince Duan Xingyi, I don't want to say anything, you just want to be safe! This is it for today. You can come and find me whenever you have nothing else to do in the future. " Zheng Ting Ze looked dotingly at his new disciple. He did not know what the consequences would be for him once he left the mountain, but he did not regret it. After so many years had passed, even if he repented, it should be enough.
After leaving Zheng Tingze's residence, the sky had already darkened. Duan Mu Yan, accompanied by Zi Min and Yao'er, slowly walked back to the Xiao manor.
"Mistress, is Imperial Physician Zheng trustworthy?" After all, if they were to walk on the edge of a cliff, even if a single mistake was made, they would be eternally doomed.
"Without a doubt, perhaps we have obtained a treasure …" Originally, Duan Muyan only wanted to find Doctor Zheng to help her concoct some controlled medicine, but she didn't expect Zheng Tingze to have so many trump cards. She believed that before long, she would also become a poison expert.
"I wonder what Su Jin Xiu has been up to this day …" On the other hand, Zi Min wasn't worried about Zheng Tingze.
"I just hope that she can turn the world upside down. Otherwise, a side concubine with a broad heart like me would really be useless …" The corners of Duan Moyan's lips curled up as a strange light appeared in her eyes.
When he arrived at the Xiao manor, Xiao Jingfeng was unexpectedly waiting outside.
"Mu Yan... You guys came back? " The anxious expression on Xiao Jin Feng's face gradually eased up when he saw Duan Mu Yan. When Yao'er saw this, she saluted Xiao Jin Feng before turning around and leaving with Zi Min.
"Mu Yan, if you don't come back, I'll have to look for you …" Xiao Jin Feng worriedly asked, wanting to reach out to support Duan Mu Yan.
"It's just that I'm out to relax, so I don't need to worry about it. Oh right, how's the embroidery?" Duan Mu Yan cleverly avoided Xiao Jin Feng's hand and replied in a gentle voice.
"She's fine. She's just screaming that she's going. Mu Yan …" This King can't just let her go like this. After all... " Before Xiao Jin could finish his words, he was stopped by Duan Mu Yan.
"After all, the Xiao manor let her down. It is not even reasonable for her to leave just like that. Mu Yan understands …" Duan Muyan lowered her eyes, her voice sounding somewhat desolate.
"This King didn't mean that, but..." Xiao Jin Feng really wanted to say something, but because Su Jin Xiu was Chu Shirou's maid, he didn't have the time to explain. He once again asked Duan Mu Yan to take her in: "Prince, why don't you marry her as your concubine …" Duan Mu Yan's words were shocking. Xiao Jin Feng was stunned as he looked incredulously at Duan Mu Yan.
"You … What did you say? Mu Yan … I didn't mean it that way, I really didn't! " Xiao Jingfeng immediately expressed his thoughts. Even though he was wrong about that night, he did not have any intentions of accepting Su Jin's embroidery.
"No?" Then how would Your Highness set up the rich brocade? Could it be that in you... You still want to try to marry her off to someone else after destroying her innocence? Not to mention she's Shi Rou's servant, even if she's just an ordinary servant of the Xiao family, can you ignore her after doing this kind of thing? Currently, the principal wife is no longer in this world, so she should be hoping that the beautiful brocade that she sees as her younger sister can bring about happiness. Prince, Mu Yan has been thinking for a long time, and this is the only solution to this problem. Her clear eyes were sparkling and translucent. Duan Mu Yan tried her best not to let her tears fall as she asked with a heartache.
"Will not... There must be another way. We just need to find a suitable family for the brocade and prepare a generous dowry for her … "Again …" Xiao Jingfeng spoke excitedly, his words even a bit incoherent.
"So what? The king knows what a woman cares about the most. Do you think that a woman who has lost her chastity, no matter how glorious her marriage is, will get the life she wants? "Your Highness, what you're doing is undoubtedly pushing the embroidered cloth into the fire pit, moreover …" Duan Muyan choked on her words, her tears still dripping uncontrollably down her face as she continued.
"Also …" We don't know if the embroidery will... 'Could it be that I now have the flesh and blood of the prince? This is something the prince has never thought about … ' After which, she turned and walked into her own room. Xiao Lingfeng dejectedly looked at Duan Moyan's departing figure, veins popping out on his forehead as he desperately pounded on the door with both hands. He repeatedly apologized, but was unable to reverse the situation.
In the dark, a pair of icy cold eyes turned more and more feminine. Su Jinxiu was very surprised by Duan Mu Yan's words, and she was also surprised that Xiao Jin Feng wanted to put her in this way. But no matter what, she had to be the mistress of the Xiao manor, no matter what!
The next few days seemed peaceful, but everyone was struggling for their own ends. In order to make things big, Su Jinxiu had secretly hired people to spread the news that she had been having an affair with Xiao Jin Feng throughout the night. This way, even if Xiao Jin Feng wanted to deal with him quietly, it would be impossible. In the past few days, Duan Muyan hadn't met with Xiao Jin Feng. She was very clear that Xiao Jin Feng was trying to avoid her, but she had seen and memorized all of Su Jin Xiu's tricks.
"The secondary concubine has business with this servant?" Su Jinxiu walked with graceful steps to the front of Duan Muyan. Before she could say anything, she had already sat down. At this moment, she had already begun to view herself as the mistress of the Xiao manor.
"Actually, your move isn't very profound. If you knew how to endure, then the position of main wife would belong to you. But now …" Duan Moyan paid no heed to Su Jin's unreasonable embroidery as she continued embroidering the Lovers in her hands.
"How are things now?" Even though Su Jinxiu did not agree with what Duan Mu Yan had said, she still could not help but question her.
"In the current situation, you can only be a concubine." The embroidery line in her hand continued to flow towards the top of the chopping board.
"Why?" Su Jin Xiu didn't think so.
It's simple. If you close the door, Xiao Jingfeng would set up this marriage because of your identity and my persuasion. Do you think that the current Emperor, who is also my royal father, would allow a maid to ride on his daughter's head and act arrogantly? Of course, I am very clear about my position in royal father's heart, but the majesty of the imperial family cannot be infringed upon. What she said was the truth, and the current situation was already outside her expectations. She was very clear that his royal father had many eyes and ears on the people, and other than investigating the affairs of the people, the most important thing was to find the privacy of the ministers of Luo Dynasty and use them to monitor the situation. Currently, the hottest topic of conversation in the Imperial City was no more than how Xiao Lingfeng had lost his virtue after drinking wine, and how could her royal father not know about the matter of forcing Su Jin to be embroidered. He would never let the danger of the royal family be so diminished.
"Will not... How could this be? " Su Jin Xiu frowned as she asked in fear.
"Although I can't become the main wife, taking in a concubine is not a difficult matter. It only depends on whether you are willing to continue our agreement." Duan Muyan put down the embroidered cloth in her hand and turned her gaze towards Su Jin.
"Are you sure the Emperor will allow the Qi King to take in concubines?" After Duan Mu Yan's explanation, Su Jin Xiu was enlightened. If the Emperor were to interfere in this matter, not only would he marry into the Xiao family, he might even be able to preserve his own life.
"The fact that you are still sitting in front of me while alive is the best proof. As long as you are not too greedy, royal father will naturally not risk getting rid of you to try and attract others' attention." Duan Mu Yan coldly snorted.
"Just like that, from a main wife to a concubine, the embroidery process is really unacceptable!" The light in Su Jin Xiu's eyes suddenly dimmed as she said resentfully.
"Perhaps, there will always be ups and downs in life. Who would have the wish to accomplish anything in their entire life …" Duan Mu Yan comforted her.
"Embroidery, I would like to know how the secondary wife wanted to make Prince Qi accept the brocade. For the past few days, the Qi King has not let go." Xiao Jingfeng's attitude is also one of the reasons why Su Jinhua retreated.
"Miss Jin Xiu is so smart. Do you really need Mu Yan to be so direct?" Her beautiful eyes blinked as she looked towards Su Jin's lower abdomen.
"This... A side consort means... Available... But who can guarantee that there will definitely be a prince's seed within? " Su Jin Xiu was shocked.
"Then we shall leave it to fate …" Seeing the blank look on Su Jin Xiu's face, Duan Mu Yan couldn't help but sneer. With Su Jin Xiu's intelligence, how could she not know what he was trying to say?
After Su Jin Xiu left, Yao'er walked out from the inner room.
"Mistress, Su Jin Xiu really doesn't know what you mean?" Yao'er didn't understand.
"She is testing me. Oh right, has the matter with Yan Wuhen been settled?" Duan Mu Yan asked doubtfully.
"Mistress, don't worry. Yao'er has already sent Zi Min to the Spring Festival Gym. It's about time for you to keep Yan Wuhen in suspense." Yao'er can tell that Yan Wushang has a great deal of heart for Master. " Yao'er truthfully said.
"Perhaps, he might become the number one person recruited by my Pear Blossom Pavilion!" The light in Duan Muyan's eyes was dark, and her cherry lips were slightly pursed in an indescribably cold manner.
