Chapter 18 Suspicion
Xiang Ye failed to beg Su Nanyi, so she turned around and knelt in front of Ling Xiao and kowtowed to beg for mercy.
"roll."
Ling Xiao kicked her away without any hesitation. He would never keep a slave who dared to harm his child.
Considering that the three women in the mansion are all pregnant, he cannot bear to see blood, otherwise he would have dragged her away and beaten to death with sticks. How dare she come to beg for mercy?
"Madam Li, Madam Li, please save me. I will serve you like a slave from now on."
Xiangye got up and went to beg Li Yuzhu again, which frightened Li Yuzhu so much that she threw herself into Aunt Xu's arms.
"Why don't you pull him down!"
Ling Xiao gave a light scolding, and the servants outside the yard hurried in, blocked Xiangye's mouth and pulled her down.
This farce finally came to an end.
Ling Xiao glanced at Su Nanyi and said, "You only have a wet nurse to serve you. I will send two maids to you later."
Su Nanyi shook her head: "No, I'll buy it myself."
Ling Xiao said coldly: "It's up to you."
He showed his kindness, but the woman didn't appreciate it, so forget it. He got up and walked to the yard, took Li Yuzhu's hand and left.
Ling Xiao sent Li Yuzhu to Liuli Courtyard, and without even eating, he went to his study and called Xiao Shunzi: "Go and invite Doctor Guo."
Xiao Shunzi: "Yes, Your Majesty."
Xiao Shunzi hurried away and quickly invited Doctor Guo over.
"Your Majesty."
Doctor Guo bowed.
"Doctor Guo, there's no need to be so polite. Please take a seat."
Doctor Guo nodded and sat down opposite Ling Xiao.
"Doctor Guo, I saw you pause beside Zhu'er just now. Did you discover something?"
Ling Xiao asked straight to the point.
Doctor Guo looked up and asked, "Does Your Majesty want to hear the truth?"
"nature."
Doctor Guo knew how much Ling Xiao doted on Li Yuzhu, so he said, "Then your Majesty, please don't blame me."
Ling Xiao nodded.
Doctor Guo then said, "When I passed by Aunt Li, I smelled a scent of incense and poison from her."
Ling Xiao's eyes shone: "This is true."
Doctor Guo: "It is true. I can confirm it."
In fact, Doctor Guo was not a traveling doctor, but a famous ghost doctor. Not only was he an expert in medicine, he was also an expert in poison.
He met Ling Xiao when he was being hunted, and was rescued by Ling Xiao. He then hid in Prince Rong's Mansion.
So Ling Xiao believed what Doctor Guo said. He frowned, because he knew that Li Yuzhu was not an ordinary person. It was not easy for a woman to establish Tianji Pavilion at such a young age and learn strange martial arts.
He just didn't expect that she could use poison, and she even hid it from him, and hid it so deeply.
The thought made him shudder. What if one day she no longer loved him and gave him a handful of poison? He would not be able to decide whether to eat it or not.
Ling Xiao was terrified when he thought about it carefully.
So he asked, "What is that fragrance? What is its effect?"
Ling Xiao is actually a very cold and aloof person, and it is absolutely impossible for him to be so obsessed with a woman that he cannot let go.
The first time he saw Li Yuzhu, he decided that he could not give up on her and was determined to get her.
Li Yuzhu was indeed attractive, but not to the point of being reckless. She even wanted to be her second wife, and he agreed without hesitation. This was inconsistent with his usual style, so he had his doubts.
Fortunately it didn't work out.
Doctor Guo looked at him with admiration. This Prince Rong was almost a demon. He guessed that the fragrance was unusual. He said, "Your Majesty asked a good question. That kind of fragrance can attract men. If it combines with a man's yin and yang, it will make the man unable to stop.
Among the smells of those poisons, there is the smell of the poison in the princess’s meal today, but I don’t know what kind of poison it is.”
Doctor Guo was telling the truth. He was an expert on poisons, but he didn't know what kind of poison it was. He said this intentionally to let Ling Xiao help him get some so that he could study it.
As for the fights between the women in Prince Rong's Mansion, he disdained them, would not get involved, and would not ask for it himself.
Ling Xiao felt very depressed after hearing this. He asked Doctor Guo to leave and waved his hand in the air.
Suddenly, a man jumped out from the darkness. It was Ling Xiao's secret guard.
"master."
The secret guard knelt on one knee and bowed to him.
Ling Xiao said in a deep voice: "Go and check every detail of Li Yuzhu's life from childhood to adulthood, including her mother's background. Remember to find out who her father is."
"Yes, master."
The secret guard flashed away.
Ling Xiao pressed his forehead with one hand and tapped the table lightly with the other.
Today she looked at Su Nanyi's face up close and found that her face was somewhat similar to Li Yuzhu's eyebrows and eyes, but Su Nanyi's facial features were more delicate, while Li Yuzhu's facial features were more majestic.
This made Ling Xiao doubt Li Yuzhu's identity. And yesterday, Su Nanyi used Li Yuzhu's identity to threaten her.
Originally, Li Yuzhu would never become his aunt, but she actually agreed to be his aunt.
He thought she would not agree, and he was making arrangements for Li Yuzhu's future at that time.
It seems that Su Nanyi not only knows that Li Yuzhu is a concubine's daughter, but also knows who her father is.
How could Su Nanyi, a woman who never left the house, know who her father was? The only thing she knew was that they had the same father.
No wonder Li Yuzhu has always refused to tell him who her father is.
I only told her father, a minor official, and I thought she was too embarrassed to tell him.
It turned out to be the two-faced Prime Minister Su.
Prime Minister Su is the emperor's favorite minister, otherwise he would not have married his unfavored daughter to disgust him.
I never thought that the old guy looked so gentle on the surface, but he actually had a mistress behind his back.
He also allowed his concubine to enter his house.
Ling Xiao became angrier the more he thought about it, and slammed the table hard. What exactly did Li Yuzhu mean?
"Knock knock knock..."
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened and the person who came in was Li Yuzhu, holding a tray with food on it.
"Your Majesty, you haven't eaten yet. I made a few dishes for you. Eat them while they're hot."
Li Yuzhu put the tray on the table, then came to Ling Xiao, gently took his arm and said.
Ling Xiao looked up at Li Yuzhu's beautiful face, and his anger disappeared by a large margin, thinking that she cooked for him even though she was pregnant.
He nodded: "Okay, then let's eat together. I remember you didn't eat either."
Li Yuzhu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll have dinner with the prince."
Although Li Yuzhu was a killer in her previous life, she was also a foodie and a great cook. Ling Xiao loved the food she cooked.
It is said that to capture a man's heart, you have to capture his stomach. This is true for her. Not only does that cheap father like to eat it, but Ling Xiao also likes to eat it.
The two of them came to the table and sat down to eat.
On the other side, Su Nanyi asked the nanny to cook again. After eating, she closed the door, entered the room, and then entered the space.
As soon as she entered the space, she started to make the antidote. Her mother and younger brother were in critical condition and there was ready-made medicine in the space, so she had to make the antidote tonight.
