"No one planted it intentionally." Cong Xuewei saw Cong Xiai's shocked expression and immediately guessed that there must be something wrong with the flower. She hesitated and said, "Maybe it was blown by the wind and fell in the yard.
It’s grown out, it looks beautiful, is there anything wrong with it?”
Cong Xiai looked at Cong Xuewei with some melancholy, and said softly: "Madam, since you said there are no outsiders here, Xiai will tell you some of Xiai's old stories. You also know that Xiai really likes Prince Xuan, not Er.
Prince, now Xiai doesn’t want to hide this, this is Xiai’s sincere truth. But, in Xiai——”
"There is no need to be so formal." Cong Xuewei said gently, "Although this is the Zhengyang Palace, the emperor is not here, and the servants have gone out. If you have anything to say, just say it casually."
Cong Xiai nodded lightly and said: "Auntie, when I met Prince Xuan, Princess Rui of Wumeng Kingdom happened to have just met Prince Xuan. She was a cruel and suspicious woman. The most important thing is that she
She is good at using poison. At that time, I was too immature and did not take her seriously. She asked her girl to give me a blue flower. I began to feel dizzy and tired for no reason. If Prince Xuan hadn't discovered it in time,
, at this time, I'm afraid you won't be able to see me. This kind of flower can make people gradually lose their lives. Unknowingly, they don't even feel the pain. They just feel tired, exhausted, and too lazy to move. In the end,
Breathing will slowly stop. The most terrifying thing is that the person is awake and aware of everything. You are now poisoned by this kind of poison. This kind of flower will never blow with the wind. This kind of flower is in Wumeng country.
Only royal physicians have the right to plant seeds. Ordinary people have no seeds at all! However, the person who gave the flowers was not as direct as Princess Rui. He or she used a slow consumption method.
You are slowly getting poisoned, so there must be only one such flower in this courtyard, so you can only pick one at a time."
Cong Xuewei frowned slightly and asked softly: "Is there an antidote for this poison?"
Cong Xiai hesitated and said: "This kind of medicine does not have no antidote, but it cannot be eradicated, and you will suffer from it in your life. I once went to Wumeng Kingdom for treatment, and the imperial doctor there told me that this kind of medicine has no antidote.
The aroma will penetrate into people's nerves and blood, so how can it be completely removed?"
"What will be the consequences if I find the antidote?" Cong Xuewei asked softly.
"It takes a long time to recuperate. This is the most important thing. Or it can be explained this way. You will understand better. During this period of recuperation, you can't do anything and you are unable to do anything. That's why I am here.
When I was in the Wumeng Kingdom, my mother would do everything possible to get Cong Yi'er to marry into the Second Prince's Mansion on my behalf. In fact, this was just to protect my position from being occupied by others." Cong Xiai sighed softly and said,
"Auntie, you should spend as little time with the Emperor as possible during this period. For your own health, you can only let Dierun take your place at this time. She is Prince Xuan's person, and the Emperor will not treat her badly.
How long you have been attached to her is just a matter of physical freshness. She is a brothel girl, and she knows how to please men better than you and I. Even if you are in good health, you have to admit her existence for a while. "
Cong Xuewei hesitated, looked at Cong Xiai, sighed, and said: "Xiai, if I say you are confused, you actually know a lot of things. Why don't you have enough sense and clarity when things happen to you? You can
Because my love for Prince Xuan was known to the Second Prince, and I allowed Su Yahui to replace you in the Second Prince's heart, why do you do such a thing that harms others and does not benefit yourself? "
Cong Xiai didn't say anything. She looked at the flowers in front of her. She already had the power to resist this kind of flower. She had been tortured by this kind of medicine for so long in Wumeng Kingdom. Now she still feels frightened when she sees this kind of flower. Who could hate Cong Xuewei so much?
, but so patiently, slowly waiting for the drug to take effect, causing Cong Xuewei to die inexplicably and without leaving a trace? "Auntie, can't you think of someone who has this possibility? This person must be calm enough.
Guy, and he has enough patience and hatred. Who hates you like this? Is it some concubine in the palace? "
Cong Xuewei smiled bitterly and said softly: "Xiai, what can I do even if I know about it? In this palace, it is too easy to kill someone, and it is impossible to find out the real plotter behind it. There will always be someone
A scapegoat."
Cong Xiai looked at Cong Xuewei, a majestic queen who could not control her own life and death. This sounded a bit ridiculous.
"Xi Ai, if you want to live, you have to live well. You and Yi'er are not on the same journey, so you can each accept your destiny. The second prince can make you disappear without any reason at any time, and can even make you carry any responsibility.
The crime will become a topic of discussion for others in the future. If you don't want to do this, you must do everything you can to make the second prince care about you again and secure your position." Cong Xuewei said softly.
Cong Xiai sighed slightly, how could it be so easy to love someone? From the time she fell in love with Sima Yixuan, she could no longer hold anyone in her heart. If she said that before meeting Sima Yixuan, she was still
If she had a good impression of Sima Rong, after meeting Sima Yixuan, she would no longer have any space for Sima Rong in her heart. She walked to the window and looked at the fog that still had not dissipated outside the window.
The person next to Sima Yixuan was Cong Yi'er, who was never in her eyes, and her heart felt tight with pain!
"I won't let myself go on like this forever." Cong Xiai turned back to look at her aunt and said softly, "It's only temporary now. I can't allow that Cong Yi'er to dominate my life like this. She and
Her mother hurt me and my mother, how could she just do it like this? She took Prince Xuan away from me, and I will take it back again. Auntie, as you said, this palace needs to be recognized.
However, just being recognized is not enough. I want power, enough power to decide life and death! Su Yahui’s sister is Princess Xun. If I conflict with her head-on, I will only make more enemies, and,
I have thought carefully about it in the past few days. The second prince hates me so much not only because of Cong Yier, but also because he feels that I have betrayed him. He cannot swallow this breath, so he will not let me die easily. He will only
It will torture me."
Cong Xuewei looked at Cong Xiai and said helplessly: "Xiai, you are really smart. I have no need to worry about you. In fact, compared with Yi'er, you are really completely different people. You have enough scheming and
The strategy is to survive in this complicated palace, but Yi'er is different. She is simple and straightforward, and does not value all of this, so she is open and willing to give up, but she has the upper hand. This is probably the reason why Prince Xuan likes her. She is so
You are generally smart, but you know better than you. She knows what she wants and is never greedy. Just like she did to Prince Xuan, she never took the initiative to express her love, but instead fascinated Prince Xuan even more. Although you let Prince Xuan
He knew your love for him, but he told Prince Xuan to stay away from you because he didn't like your scheming. Prince Xuan is a smart man, and playing tricks with him is tantamount to announcing your own stupidity.
"
Cong Xiai looked at the thick fog outside again. Everything was unclear, but there was always hope.
