"What did you say? There is no antidote for worry?"

Shen Yuan frowned, recalling that Xiang Fengliu told her that it was not a big problem in the hospital, and a hint of doubt arose in her heart.

Fang Xuelin said proudly: "Of course, the origins of such secret medicines from foreign lands are complicated. I inquired in advance and knew that there was no antidote for it, so I got it from that person."

At this point, Fang Xuelin realized that she had spilled the beans and hurriedly stopped talking, but Shen Yuan still noticed her.

"That one? What do you mean? Did someone instruct you to poison you?"

"No."

Fang Xuelin's expression suddenly became panicked, as if she had leaked some terrible news.

Then he didn't even dare to talk to Shen Yuan anymore and remained silent the whole time.

But the more she behaves like this, the more suspicious Shen Yuan becomes.

Worrying thoughts are different from other poisons. According to Xiang Fengliu, the incubation period is basically the longest.

If she had been poisoned at this time, then she would not have died in childbirth until five years later in her previous life, which is equivalent to saying that it took a total of five years from the time the poison was administered to the time it took effect.

She also knew how much Fang Xuelin hated her.

If you really want her to die, you can't have the patience to wait that long.

What's more, this poison does not belong to the Yan Dynasty. Xiang Fengliu said that it is not easy to get it. In Fang Xuelin's situation, it is unlikely that there is a way to get it.

In this way, it makes sense that there is a pair of invisible hands controlling her behind her, and there is a messenger behind the scenes.

She comes from an ordinary family and doesn't have any big enemies, so it shouldn't be possible for him to be here for her.

However, behind her stood Pei Zhaoxue, the current prime minister who had made countless enemies in the court.

"I see."

Shen Yuan looked down at Fang Xuelin who was kneeling on the ground, and said word by word: "Someone wanted to deal with Pei Zhaoxue, so he cooperated with you inside and outside, poisoned me, and wanted to use me to suppress him, right?"

Fang Xuelin, a pig-headed person, would definitely do such a thing in order to make her die.

The fact was directly exposed by Shen Yuan. Fang Xuelin simply gave up denying it and responded directly:

"So what? But you are wrong. I didn't intend to clamp down on my cousin with that person. All I want is for you to die! Mrs. Pei's position should have been mine. You are just a businesswoman. Why should we come from behind?"

Shen Yuan laughed, raised his hand and slapped her with such force that the corner of her lip bleeded: "Idiot, you are so stupid."

At this time, I am still struggling with the so-called love.

Pei Zhaoxue is a person who attaches great importance to rules and etiquette. Even if he doesn't have her in his heart, as long as she is his wife, he will not sit idly by and do nothing. Naturally, he will fall into the hands of the person behind the scenes and restrain him.

This will have nothing to do with whether Fang Xuelin will participate or not in the future.

As early as the moment Fang Xuelin successfully poisoned her, she became an abandoned child.

Shen Yuan calmly asked Mo Er to control Fang Xuelin. She didn't plan to talk to Pei Zhaoxue about it now. Instead, she was thinking about the real reason why Pei Zhaoxue failed to come back before she died in childbirth in her previous life.

When she had a premonition that she was about to give birth, she wrote a letter and sent it out that day.

Based on the relationship between the two of them at that time, although Pei Zhaoxue still treated her coldly and distantly, he would usually reply to her letters on the same day.

An exception occurred at that time, and until a whole day passed, there was no reply.

Until another whole day passed the next day, she passed away due to the double torture of poisonous hair and dystocia.

Now that I think about it carefully, everything is strange. She suspected that there must be something wrong with the letter she sent. Pei Zhaoxue's condition must not be very good at that time. Otherwise, she would not be able to come back after giving birth.

Because he had promised her that he would be with her on the day she gave birth.

But at that time, she just thought that Pei Zhaoxue had broken his promise and had no interest in her.

Shen Yuan didn't know the truth, and her head was in a mess.

Countless possibilities were growing crazily in her mind, leaving her confused.

What if Pei Zhaoxue is not as cold-hearted as she thought?

She couldn't figure it out, but then she remembered that he had never helped Pei Fang, Fang Xuelin, or Pei Jinyan when he was tormenting her, and her messy thoughts suddenly became much clearer.

"Zhi Luo, go make me a pot of hot tea."

Zhi Luo looked at Shen Yuan's dazed expression and felt worried.

But Shen Yuan refused to say anything, and she couldn't overstep, so she had no choice but to retreat.

When the tea came, Shen Yuan forgot to boil it and subconsciously put it into her mouth. It was so hot that she hurriedly spit out the tea with a stunned look on her face.

"Young Madam, are you okay? I'm a weird slave, you should put it away first before bringing it over!" Zhi Luo looked guilty, but Shen Yuan waved her hand to say it was okay and let her go down.

"But."

"Go down, Zhiluo, I'm a little tired now."

The wooden door closed, and Shen Yuan lowered her eyes to look at the still steaming tea. The pain of burning her lips and tongue was still there, which also helped her to sort out the last few thoughts.

Pei Zhaoxue is like this cup of hot tea. Even if it can help her quench her thirst, the gap and friction that arose when neither of them paid attention at the beginning is like the fact that it burned her just now and cannot be erased.

The previous life has passed, even if he is really not as cold-hearted as she thought, and there is a last resort reason, for example, it is very likely that he was delayed to help her get the antidote, etc., then It's too late.

The speed of the onset of worry is related to the amount of sorrow she has accumulated. If he can respond to her feelings at that time, the poison will not attack so quickly, and they may be able to gain more opportunities.

But there are not so many ordinary things in this world.

The girl picked up the boiling tea, walked to the window, and slowly poured it down along the window edge, which melted a lot of snow accumulated on the wall and released a large amount of white water vapor.

She stared at the water vapor gradually disappearing, and the knot in her heart that had been bound to her for so long was lifted.

At the very least, she already knows that she did not really fail in pursuing Pei Zhaoxue in her previous life. It was not as pitiful or even ridiculous as she thought.

Soon, Mo Er came over and called her, saying that Pei Zhaoxue called her over.

This was within Shen Yuan's expectation. She nodded, put on her windproof cloak, and followed him into his study.

The young man is still so clear and calm, but his jade face is now covered with a layer of gaffes that Shen Yuan rarely sees.

"Is there really no antidote?"

Fang Xuelin's hands were tied behind her back with ropes, and there were a lot of tears in the corners of her eyes. She laughed out loud when she heard what he asked: "Of course not. If there was an antidote, I wouldn't have been so happy to have sex with my husband... uh..."

Before Fang Xuelin finished speaking, she was suddenly hit by a flying blade on her neck. She lost her life in an instant and fell down with her eyes open.

The guards in the mansion were busy guarding Pei Zhaoxue. Mo Er saw a masked man in black not far away escaping over the eaves, so he used Qinggong to chase after him.

Fang Xuelin is offline, will Pei Fang be far behind?
