Chapter 564 Awakening from a Dream
Lin Siran also followed him to the door.

Princess Huayang took one last look at Lin Siran, patted her on the shoulder, and left.

Lin Siran was confused, turned around and asked Qingxuan: "Mother, what does she mean?"

"She has figured it out. She wanted to show off, but she didn't show off her success. I mentioned one last thing, and she realized what she should worry about the most. Don't delay because of her little thoughts. It's about my daughter."

Qing Xuan said with a smile.

"No wonder her expression suddenly changed after you finished speaking." Lin Ruran said with a smile, "Mother, you are more skilled."

"As a person, her biggest problem is that she likes to compare. She wants to have what others have, and she wants what others don't have. Anyway, she can't lose, especially she doesn't want to lose to me."

"In this matter, she feels that not only her daughter has won you, but she has won me."

"So today she is full of hope to see you and me looking down and down. If you come out with a sad face, haggard and thin, she will probably be proud for a long time. And I will definitely feel resentful and angry because of your sadness and disappointment, that is her I'd rather see it."

Qingxuan shook his head with a smile, feeling that Princess Huayang still couldn't get rid of such a childish side.

"Because she has always felt in her heart that she is not as good as your mother. It is because she has never been able to win against you that she has a knot in her heart, so that she wants to use her daughter's happiness as the price to compete with you."

Lin Siran also understood this twisted mentality.

"Fortunately, she still loves her daughter more. In fact, she is showing off to us at this time. If we are really the kind of brooding and narrow-minded people, I am afraid that there will be trouble again." Lin Siran felt that Princess Huayang was a bit unwise.

"Isn't it? That's why she finally came to her senses. It's no good to offend us, but it might bring trouble to Li Fu's marriage." Qingxuan said.

"Ranran, looking at you, it seems that the rain has passed and the sky has cleared?" Qingxuan asked.

Lin Siran smiled, and said: "It can't be said that the rain has passed, but... it's like waking up from a dream."

"What do you mean? I'm confused."

"Anyway, the meaning is similar. As long as mother knows, I'm not sad, and I won't hold a grudge. Everything is over."

"Well, then I'm relieved, but why does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come to our house from time to time recently? This is a bit too ostentatious, and it is easy to attract criticism."

Qingxuan looked a little embarrassed.

Lin Siran's eyes were vacillating, and he said to him from left to right: "Really? It's nothing, right... I'm going to discuss something with my mother-in-law. I still have her book of medicine kings. I want to lend it to you." Uncle Cui has a look, but mother-in-law's consent is required, mother, do you think she will agree?"

"How do I know that, that old woman has a very weird temper, but she takes good care of you, and maybe she is willing to listen to you." Qingxuan also forgot what he wanted to ask.

Lin Siran said: "Well, then I'll go to her first. Since my mother-in-law came to live with us, I don't have to worry about someone poisoning us. Her old man is very strict, and she has to go around every day. No corners are spared, we may not even find a single poisonous mosquito in our house."

"Not to mention the poisonous ones, I can't find the non-poisonous ones. In the past, I occasionally heard the sound of mice and mosquitoes. Now I'm not used to the clean ones."

Qing Xuan also laughed.

"What are you two talking about me behind my back?"

The poisoned queen jumped out and asked dissatisfied.

"Where did you say anything bad about you? Isn't that a compliment? It makes us feel at ease in eating and living." Lin Siran replied with a smile.

"Hmph, even if you have a bit of conscience, little girl, since I live here with you, I can't eat and drink for free. I should do what I can, but I really found something wrong, take a look."

The old woman took out a shoe sole.

"What's wrong?" Qingxuan asked in surprise, but didn't see anything different.

"Girl, take a look." The old woman handed the sole of the shoe to Lin Siran.

"Is this supposed to be for your mother?" Lin Siran looked at the size and materials of the shoes, and guessed that they were Qingxuan's shoes.

Qingxuan nodded and said: "Well, it should be made by Asi."

"Look carefully, there is something wrong." The old woman said.

Lin Siran looked at it carefully, and was about to touch it, but was stopped by the old woman.

"Don't touch it, you're looking for death." The old woman scolded her reproachfully, "You're so young, don't you have bad eyesight?"

Lin Siran's eyesight these days is a little bit bad, after all, reading calligraphy and painting all the time does a lot of damage to the eyes, especially at night when reading with a lamp on.

"My eyes are not as good as before, mother-in-law, tell me what's the matter." Lin Siran didn't blame her for being rude, after all, this is the style of an old woman.

The old woman rolled her eyes and said, "Don't keep burning the lamp to read at night, you will be disobedient. There is a hidden needle on it, only a little nod."

"Ah?" Lin Siran was taken aback, "Then if you wear these shoes on your feet..."

The old woman tore off the soles of the shoes and showed them.

"It's not just the dark needles, but also this layer. This layer is the key." The old woman pointed to the thin layer of cotton cloth in the middle, which looked no different from other cotton cloths.

"Is it poisonous?" Lin Siran guessed.

"Well, it's not stupid. This kind of poison is called madman powder. As the name suggests, it can make people crazy. The poisoner is very vicious, and the poison is soaked in the cotton cloth. If you wear this shoe for a long time, the sweat or water will seep into the sole of the shoe, and The poisonous needle pierces the soles of people's feet little by little, and it doesn't feel very painful, but it will leave small, imperceptible wounds, and the poison will penetrate into the soles of the feet, and then slowly spread to the whole body."

"At the beginning, the amount of poison is very light, and people suffer from insomnia and dreaminess at most. As time goes by, the toxicity deepens, and people will go crazy, and then they will die."

The old woman patiently explained.

The faces of Qingxuan and Lin Siran gradually became gloomy.

"It's so vicious!" Qingxuan gritted his teeth, "Who hates me so much and wants to use such a vicious method to harm me?"

"I don't know." The old woman said, "If I didn't carefully check all the things that come into contact with you, food, clothing, and use, and never let go, maybe you will be tricked soon. .”

"Thank you so much for saving your life." Qingxuan hurriedly saluted the old woman.

The old woman was not too polite, and said: "I deserve this gift. It can be regarded as saving your life, but you have to rely on yourself to find out who killed you. But don't worry, I will be with you." Day, no one will try to harm you by poisoning you."

Lin Siran was really glad that he had brought the old woman back to the princess mansion, and now he has a reliable drug tester.

"Thank you, mother-in-law. If it weren't for you, it would be really hard to find such an insidious way of poisoning." Lin Siran said, "We are very careful in what we eat and wear, but we can't prevent people from putting poison in the soles of our shoes."

"Who made this shoe sole?" Lin Siran asked Qingxuan, "I need to find out about it from Asi."
