Early the next morning, Jiang Zhenzhen woke up in the pavilion with bruises and pain all over her body.

Beside her, Chu Huang was sleeping soundly.

At this time, it was still dark.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, which is perfect for killing people.

Jiang Zhenzhen decisively took off the hairpin from her head, and just as she was about to pierce Chu Huang's heart, she heard a voice from far away: "Your Majesty, where are you?"

It's Qi Yuan's voice.

Jiang Zhenzhen secretly spat.

When is the right time for Qi Yuan to come? It just happens to be this time.

Jiang Zhenzhen gritted her teeth, wishing to get rid of Qi Yuan as well, but she didn't dare to make any big move now, otherwise once Chu Huang was awakened, her life would be gone.

She had no choice but to leave in a hurry when Qi Yuan arrived.

"Your Majesty?" Qi Yuan was startled for a moment when he saw the naked Chu Huang, and then quickly helped Chu Huang up and wrapped him in his coat.

In this scene, even if he thought about it with his toes, he knew what was happening.

A pulse was taken and it was discovered that Chu Huang had been poisoned.

Now Jiang Zhenzhen is still wandering around, so who did Chu Huang have an affair with and detoxify him?

If Jiang Zhenzhen knew about it, there would definitely be an uproar, and the marriage would probably be over.

When the time comes, what should Chu Huang do?

Qi Yuan simply didn't dare to continue thinking about it, so he could only take Chu Huang back to the palace immediately, so that he could have a good life and didn't dare to say a word about today's events.

…

Although Jiang Zhenzhen failed to take the opportunity to kill Chu Huang, she estimated that the ghost town would be in chaos tonight because of the mugwort. Wouldn't it be good for her to escape in the chaos?

So, she hurriedly headed towards the path she had set in advance.

As a result... As a result, she saw that all the ways out of her brilliant plan were guarded by countless secret guards.

Even though she asked people to catch mugwort, even though mugwort was still a figure in the ghost town, even though many people rushed to catch mugwort, and gossip continued, these secret guards still guarded the way out, without any care.

move.

Jiang Zhenzhen: "..."

That's right, he's very dedicated.

She gritted her teeth, not believing that Chu Huang could block all the ways out, so she took all the ways out that were not within her choice, but in the end, she was still blocked.

Jiang Zhenzhen had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward: "I said, did you catch mugwort last night?"

Several secret guards looked at each other. Although they were curious as to why Jiang Zhenzhen, who had been wandering around, came out of the ghost town, they didn't ask any more questions: "I don't know."

If you ask too much about the big boss, you will die.

"Then you don't want to go and find out?"

Are you all without curiosity?

The secret guards shook their heads: "Your Majesty said that in the past few months, we must strictly guard against death. If a mosquito is allowed to fly out, we will be held accountable."

Jiang Zhenzhen: "..."

Chu Huang, you are really good!

At this moment, Chuang couldn't break out. She had no choice but to turn around and go back, asking someone to release the mugwort. She also told her that everything tonight was a misunderstanding, and then returned to the secret room, pretending that she had never been out.

.

Qi Yuan also kept silent tacitly.

The next day, Chu Huang indeed seemed to have lost his memory. He neither held Jiang Zhenzhen accountable nor executed Ai Cao.

I originally thought that Wormwood would escape this disaster.

But something happened to Wormwood the day before the wedding.

On this day, Jiang Zhenzhen had been released from the secret room by Chu Huang, who told her that she had returned from Yunyu, so at this time, she was trying on wedding clothes in the room.

"Have you heard? The Wormwood Guards have been kicked out!"

Jiang Zhenzhen's heart skipped a beat and her ears immediately pricked up.

Could it be that what happened that day was revealed?

"Who knows about this in the ghost town? It's also because the escort of Wormwood is too greedy. He actually climbed onto the third prince's boat and wanted to betray your Majesty. Who knows, how could your Majesty be able to ask her to trick her into it?"

Third prince?

Jiang Zhenzhen looked confused.

The Third Prince may be considered ambitious in the original text, but his role is too low and he can only be regarded as cannon fodder.

Unexpectedly, he is actually related to mugwort?

Knowing that this matter had nothing to do with what happened that night, Jiang Zhenzhen breathed a sigh of relief.

"What do you think happened to the mugwort?" Jiang Zhenzhen asked.

When several maids saw her interest, they immediately started talking.

Basically, last night Ai Cao stole important secrets from the ghost town and was caught on the spot by Chu Huang, and then she was kicked out.

"Your Majesty is still kind, but you didn't take Wormwood's life. You know, betrayal is a serious crime!"

"No, from ancient times to the present, only Wormwood has survived after betraying your Majesty."

"How can I say that Ai Cao has been in the ghost town for so many years, and she has worked hard without any merit, so your Majesty will naturally be more lenient to her."

Then, they praised Chu Huang in various ways, as if Chu Huang was the kindest and most generous person in the world.

Jiang Zhenzhen's face looked like a subway old man: "..."

Can you still live if you steal secrets?

Jiang Zhenzhen can only believe that there is a ghost.

Not to mention that the city lord is the sanctimonious but ruthless Chu Huang, even an ordinary elder would not be able to spare mugwort's life.

She estimated that mugwort's life would be gone not long after leaving the ghost town.

Only these little maids can think that Chu Huang really appreciates merit or is a hard-working person.

She estimated that in Chu Huang's eyes, there were only two kinds of people in the world: useful people and trash.

As for waste, there is only death.

Jiang Zhenzhen held her chin and listened to the maids chirping happily and saying good things about Chu Huang, and couldn't help but yawn.

"I've met your Majesty!"

"Everyone, go down."

By the time Jiang Zhenzhen came to her senses, Chu Huang had already walked behind her. Ruyu's fingertips were stroking her bun, with an obscure smile on his face:

"This wedding dress suits you very well."

Jiang Zhenzhen looked at him through the mirror, somewhat unrealistically: "I heard that the day before the wedding, which is today, we are not supposed to meet."

"I don't believe this."

"But I believe it." The corner of Jiang Zhenzhen's mouth raised, a hint of coldness arose, "Your Majesty, if you break the taboo like this, no wonder we will be restless together in the future and torture each other."

Chu Huang lowered his eyes and lightly touched Jiang Zhenzhen's forehead, making it difficult to see the emotions in his eyes.

His voice was a little hoarse: "To this day, do you still want to kill me?"

"What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Chu Huang didn't respond.

Jiang Zhenzhen slapped his hand away, sat on the chair next to her, and chewed the dried fruit leisurely: "I heard that Your Excellency drove the mugwort out?"

"yes."

"Why?" Jiang Zhenzhen's fingertips felt a little unnatural.

Don't blame her for being suspicious, this matter is really too strange.

"Do you care about her very much?" Chu Huang asked, keeping his eyes on her, "Or do you care about me?"

Jiang Zhenzhen turned her head: "No, I'm just surprised that Your Majesty would do such a kind thing."

For those who don’t know, I thought he used to run a charity organization.

Chu Huang smiled, and said with a smile: "Is this how you see me?"

Jiang Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows, could it be that she had guessed wrong?

In fact, Chu Huang still has a conscience?

"You guessed it right, I really have no intention of keeping her alive."
