Chapter 3 Closing the Deal
"That's not necessary." Meng Siyin waved her hand, still smiling, "But I want to make a deal with the lord, I hope you will consider it."

"What deal?" Zhao Xu couldn't help but be a little curious.

What medicine does this woman sell in the gourd?

Meng Siyin moved towards him and said, "I know that you have another poison in your body, which has been around for more than ten years. If you guess correctly, your mother and concubine died because of this poison, right? "

The case of the late Concubine Lin Guifei being poisoned back then caused a lot of uproar, and everyone knew that, although when the case was finally closed, it was claimed to be the work of the palace maid, but anyone with a bit of brains could see that this was not the truth.

"The poison should have been in the food, but because you were still young and ate less, maybe even only one or two bites, so the poisoning was not deep. Although you suffered in the end, you still survived."

At that time, I only knew that the imperial concubine was poisoned, and there was no news about Zhao Xu, so no one knew that His Royal Highness Zhao Wang, who led the army all the year round, was actually not in good health.

As for how Zhao Xu was poisoned, it is only Meng Siyin's personal speculation, because this kind of poison is colorless and tasteless, and it is the most convenient to drink in tea and meals.

"Where did you hear that?" Zhao Xu's complexion became extremely gloomy, and killing intent flashed in his eyes.

"It's all guessed." Meng Siyin knew that he must have guessed correctly when he saw his reaction.

Zhao Xu frowned, guess what?In his impression, this woman is not so smart.

Also—"I've never heard of you being a doctor."

"Don't talk about you, no one in my family knows about except my father." Meng Siyin lied, her face was not red or her heart was beating, "I learned it secretly."

Zhao Xu pondered for a moment, looked at her suspiciously, and said, "Even if you make sense, what is the deal you're talking about?"

"I can detoxify this poison, and help you find out the poisoner and avenge the murder of your mother." Meng Siyin looked back at the past frankly and said slowly, "But in return, I hope you can do two things for me. The first thing is to help me get out first."

It's easy to help her get out, and as far as Zhao Xu is concerned, it's just a few words.

"What about the second one?"

"I haven't thought about it yet, I'll talk about it when I think about it."

Seeing that he still seemed uneasy, Meng Siyin added, "Don't worry, I won't let you do anything beyond your ability to repay."

Zhao Xu was still dubious, but recalling what she said just now, she felt that she should have some real skills, so she might as well give her a chance and let her try.

"You must really be able to detoxify. If you dare to deceive this king, the consequences will be very serious."

Meng Siyin nodded and agreed: "Who doesn't know that your Highness King Zhao is ruthless and ruthless? I dare not lie to you if I lie to anyone!"

"It's good to know." Zhao Xu felt unhappy in his heart. It was true that he was ruthless, how could he be ruthless?
This woman dares to smear him, she is not small!If you can't move by yourself, you have to teach her a lesson!
About a stick of incense passed and the effect of the anesthetic passed, Meng Siyin helped him out of the cave and went to the official road outside.

Halfway through, the queen mother brought a group of guards to look for it, and Yuan Ruru also followed.

"Xu'er, are you alright?" The queen mother stepped forward and looked at Zhao Xu anxiously.

"The grandson is fine, the imperial grandmother can rest assured." Zhao Xu's injury is not well, and after walking such a long way, he is exhausted and unable to speak.

"It's fine." The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief, pointed at Meng Siyin, and gave an order, "Come here, arrest this woman!"

Meng Siyin immediately hid behind Zhao Xu, grabbed his sleeve, and asked weakly, "Your Highness, save me."

The corner of Zhao Xu's mouth twitched, and he really knew how to act. He used to be a wolf with a big tail, but now he has become a little white rabbit.

"Grandmother, although Miss Meng kidnapped my grandson, it wasn't out of malice. She helped me suture the wound and detoxify it. It's worth the merits and demerits, so please forgive her."

The Empress Dowager and Yuan Ruru were both taken aback, how could he help Meng Siyin to speak?
"Your Highness, you've been fooled!" Yuan Ruru shouted impatiently, "She designed all this! Those assassins were sent by her, and they were a scam from the very beginning. She wanted to use this to win your heart, here I am. There is evidence!"

Of course Zhao Xu, who had been told the ins and outs in advance, would not believe her, and he knew very well that there was someone else who really wanted his life.

"The two so-called witnesses have been bought by you long ago, and you came up with the idea, but now you think everything depends on Miss Meng?"

"No," Yuan Ruru panicked instantly and glared at Meng Siyin resentfully, "She slandered me!"

The Queen Mother was confused and couldn't keep up, "What the hell is going on here?"

Zhao Xu replied: "Miss Meng just wanted to make a joke with her grandson, and she had no malicious intentions, but in order to frame her, Miss Yuan bribed people to mix with fake assassins in an attempt to kill her grandson. She was the real mastermind behind the scenes. "

Hearing this, Meng Siyin looked at Zhao Xu unexpectedly, this guy has no grudge against Yuan Ruru, right?Why put the blame on her?
She couldn't understand it.

However, it was quite to her liking.

"I didn't, I was wronged!" Yuan Ruru vehemently denied it, so anxious that tears came out, "The Queen Mother, it was Meng Siyin who slandered the prince and distorted the facts, I..."

"Shut up!"

Zhao Xu suddenly shouted loudly. Although he lacked qi, he was extremely intimidating. He was so frightened that Yuan Ruru immediately swallowed the rest of her words, and her pale face showed a look of horror.

"Grandmother, this woman is vicious and willful, and her grandson thinks she should be taught a lesson."

Although the queen mother still hasn't fully figured out the situation, as long as the baby grandson is fine, she doesn't care about anything else. Since the grandson speaks, she has no reason to refuse.

"Well, you're right, someone, take Yuan Ruru down and put him in the Heavenly Prison!"

Yuan Ruru's eyes darkened and she almost fainted.

How could this be?Obviously winning the ticket, but ended up in prison?
"I am wronged, the queen mother, I am wronged!"

Soon, she was dragged down by the guards.

The Queen Mother glanced at Meng Siyin and said angrily, "Since King Zhao is interceding for you, Aijia will no longer hold you accountable. Go home and reflect on it."

"Thank you Queen Mother Long En." Meng Siyin raised her head and looked at Zhao Xu for a moment, then lowered her eyes again.

Immediately, the queen mother asked someone to carry a stretcher, carry Zhao Xu, put him on the carriage, and the group walked away.

Meng Siyin, the "sinner", had no choice but to walk back to the city.

But after walking for about an hour, a famous guard turned back, sent a horse, and said, "His Royal Highness Zhao said that the girl would not be able to get home before dark, and I specially rewarded you."

"Reward?" Meng Siyin was very unhappy with the wording, but she hammered her two sore legs and wanted to cry without tears.

Forget it, reward it.

"Thank you."

He got on his horse and hurried all the way back to the city.
