The Evil King's Poison Pet: The Queen of Houmen

Chapter 225 Inquiry
"Auntie, don't be sad..."

Entering the inner hall, Lin Yike and Mrs. Murong hugged each other and wept. The two of them saw that they were usually on good terms with each other, and they were sad and caring for each other.

"Mrs. Murong, my condolences."

Following behind, Yun Xuan came in, bowed to Murong Yi's mother, and took out something wrapped in a silk handkerchief from her sleeve and handed it to her.

"This is……"

Puzzled, tears welled up in her eyes, Mrs. Murong reached out to take it, and wanted to open it.

"Madam, since this is Miss Murong's last relic, I think you'd better wait to see it in private."

However, with a slight smile, she stretched out her hand to stop the other party, because this was a secret about Murong Yi, and it was inconvenient for Yun Xuan to let others know.

"So that's how it is... Well, if that's the case, then I'll accept it first. Thank you Miss Yun for helping me bring back my son's belongings." Nodding to express her gratitude, Mrs. Murong wiped her tears and said again.

"Actually, I heard that before Yi'er passed away, Miss was by my side. I originally wanted to visit Miss earlier, so as to inquire about some things about Yi'er. However, Miss was ill at that time, and it was inconvenient to see guests. by……"

Sighing, in fact, he had been to Yunfu, but was stopped by Xie Huan, so until today, Mrs. Murong saw Yunxuan for the first time.

"Is it my fault? My body is too weak. It took me a month to cultivate. I kept Madam waiting for a long time... But fortunately, the things are finally returned to Zhao today. After a while, Madam can open it and take a look slowly when people leave." Smiling. Stepping forward, Yun Xuan seemingly inadvertently covered Mrs. Murong's hand, and without anyone noticing, gently squeezed it.

"..."

Madam Murong's complexion changed as if she felt someone's signal, but soon she calmed down, as if nothing happened, she nodded slightly.

"Miss Yun came with Yike, right?"

"Yes, I came with Yike and His Royal Highness." Yun Xuan replied with a smile on her face.

"Hey, I think back then, Yike and I, Yier, had a good relationship, and they often played in my house. But now things are changing, and Yike is still there, but I, Yier..."

"aunt……"

Seeing that Mrs. Murong was sad, Lin Yike hurriedly comforted her, and her eyes were red.

"Miss Yun, I'm sorry to say that. I have always regarded Yike as my daughter. Now that Yier is gone, and I haven't seen Yike for a long time, I want to keep her to talk. I wonder if you have any objections." On the face of the scene, Mrs. Murong is also qualified, and her accent is full.

"Naturally, why would Yun Xuan have any objections?"

Understanding what Mrs. Murong meant, Yun Xuan smiled faintly.

So she took the conversation naturally, and Mrs. Murong continued: "Since that's the case, why don't you stay together? You came together, so it's not good to ask you not to go together. How about this, after hearing that Miss Yun just recovered, I'll let someone take you to the wing room to rest first, and after I finish talking with Yike, you guys have a light meal together before leaving, how about..."

Madam Murong knew that Yun Xuan had something to say, so she intentionally found an excuse to keep her.Moreover, Mrs. Murong is smart, knowing that she has no friendship with Yunxuan, if she stays alone, she might be suspicious, so she uses Lin Yike as an excuse to deceive others.

"That's fine, I'm really tired from the car ride all the way, Mrs. Murong is thoughtful, Yun Xuan thanked me here..." Bowing her body and smiling, Yun Xuan achieved her goal, so she followed the servants The wing is gone.

"Your Majesty the Fourth Highness also sit down for a while, and I and Yi can go to the side hall to chat for a while, and I will be back soon." Let Xiao Linxing be alone, and Mrs. Murong took Lin Yike to leave, but although she pulled Lin Yike Yike, but all she can think about is Yunxuan, she doesn't know what she wants to say to herself, she can't be in public, she has to do it secretly...!
*

"What! Yi'er, she's really not dead...!"

After reading the private message, Mrs. Murong immediately came to confirm with Yun Xuan!When I learned the truth, I couldn't help crying with excitement!

"Yi'er, my Yi'er..."

"Ma'am, I believe you will read it later, and you just need to know it yourself, and you must not speak humanely to outsiders, otherwise there will be consequences... You should know."

She has already informed Mrs. Murong of everything that happened on the autumn hunting field, so Yun Xuan confirmed that—for the sake of her daughter, Mrs. Murong will never confide a word!

"I know! I know! Don't worry, I will never mention anything about Yi'er to anyone, just treat her as dead and never come back...!"

Express your opinion quickly, Mrs. Murong's eyes turned red again and again!
How good her daughter is not dead!You must know that she is such an only daughter, if she really asks a white-haired person to send a black-haired person to her, then God would be too cruel!
"Thank you, Ms. Yun, you are my Yi'er's benefactor, that is, the whole Murong family's benefactor! I beg you to accept my worship. My Murong family will never forget your kindness!"

After saying that, she was about to kneel down. After all, Mrs. Murong is also the queen of the family, she pays attention to promises, and keeps her promises!

"Please, please, what is Ma'am doing..."

As soon as she grasped Mrs. Murong's hand, Yun Xuan took her up, and then pulled her to sit on a side seat, starting to focus on today's topic intentionally or unintentionally...

"Ma'am, Miss Murong once warned me that only you should know about this matter, not even Uncle Murong."

Made it up!This is Yun Xuan's entry point for investigating Murong Chun, first to sell favors, and then to explore the secrets, step by step!

"Yi'er, she... really said that?"

I was stunned for a moment, it seemed unexpected, but it was reasonable.Sighing slightly, Mrs. Murong seemed to understand, she turned her head, tears fell even more fiercely, "Yi'er...she still doesn't want to forgive her father."

"Ma'am, where did you start talking about this?"

A rift between Murong Yi and Murong Chun?
"Isn't it because of the master's strange illness, Yi'er felt that he had ruined the Murong family, so all this time..." Mrs. Murong sobbed hard to hide her sadness.

"I see. No wonder Miss Murong said that. I didn't understand at first..." Nodding her head, she finally understood, but Yun Xuan changed the subject, and then directed the conversation to Murong Chun.

"But it shouldn't be. It is said that there is no overnight feud between father and daughter? Even if Uncle Murong ruined the Murong family, it was because of his own will, and he didn't want to cause it because of his illness... How could Miss Murong blame her for this, so that What about venting anger?"

Deliberately putting on a discriminatory look, Yun Xuan seemed to be arguing for Murong Chun.

However, Mrs. Murong obviously knew what was going on, she just shook her head wordlessly, with a sad expression on her face: "No, the matter is not what you imagined, it is true that Master..."

Madam Murong seemed to realize that she was talking too much, so she covered her lips with a silk handkerchief and kept sobbing.

"Ma'am, what happened to Uncle Murong?"

Knowing that the key point of the question was reached, Yun Xuan was secretly worried, but continued to pretend calmly: "Ma'am, let's be honest, Miss Murong entrusted me to worry about you the most before she left. Okay, I will take care of you in the future..."

"Yi'er..."

After hearing her daughter's "last words", Mrs. Murong burst into tears.

"Ma'am, Miss Murong and I...actually we don't know each other very well, but I think she's a good person, so I'm willing to risk the charge of deceiving the queen to help her hide it and earn a chance for her life."

"Thank you! Thank you, Ms. Yun! I will never forget your great kindness in my whole life...!" Madam Murong held her hand tightly, grateful for Yun Xuan's kindness.

"You're welcome, ma'am, just call me Xuan'er." With a slight smile, Yun Xuan slowly picked up the routine.

"Okay, thank you, Xuan'er, for being willing to help us like this..." She patted Ren'er's hand, unable to express her gratitude.

Seeing this, Yun Xuan remained silent, but waited for Mrs. Murong to calm down slightly, and then continued, bit by bit, step by step.

"It's nothing. I also think it's not easy for Miss Murong. In fact, madam, don't you really want to change the status quo? There is a saying that cures a disease. If we know the reason, we can completely cure Uncle Murong's disease." Now, why bother to wear it down like this, let you suffer and suffer, and make Miss Murong worry about you far away from Beijing? Ma'am, I promised Miss Murong to take care of her for a while, but if you don't tell me, I really mean it. There's nothing I can do about it, could it be...you really let me break my trust?"

Yun Xuan sighed, feeling a little sad.

Seeing this, Mrs. Murong waved her hands immediately, with a look of embarrassment on her face: "No, no, that's not the case."

Yun Xuan is her benefactor, first she helped her daughter without hesitating the crime of bullying the king, and now she is kind enough to help her husband again!With such a kind heart... how could she choose to cheat again?

"Actually, Xuan'er, my master's illness... is his own fault, and it's no wonder Yi'er blamed him for defeating the Murong family." With a long sigh, Mrs. Murong finally made a breakthrough.

"Oh? How do you say that?" I was overjoyed, but she was calm in front of her. Yun Xuan supported Mrs. Murong, showing concern on her face.

"You also know that our Murong family was born as a general, and Yi'er's grandfather was also a powerful general protecting the country! So, Yi'er's father has always wanted to make achievements in the battlefield and conquer the north and south, but he was born with poor background. Without the battlefield, he can only recuperate at home... But as a man, who would want to be useless for the rest of his life? So Yi'er's father began to search for ways, and hired famous doctors to treat him and recuperate his body."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Murong couldn't help but shed another tear. Thinking about it all these years, she was also extremely aggrieved, usually she couldn't find anyone to tell, but when she met Yun Xuan today, she simply told her all.

"One day, I don't know where Yi'er's father got a book. This book is very precious to him, and no one will let anyone touch it. Even after so many years, I haven't seen it once."

"Sigh... Ever since I got that book, Yi'er's father has changed. He shut himself in the study all day long, ignoring world affairs and concentrating on studying, but his health didn't improve. Not only that, his condition seemed to be getting worse and worse. Every month at the end of the month, it is necessary to spend a lot of expensive ginseng as medicine to calm the disease."

"One ginseng per month? That's really cheap." Yun Xuan nodded in agreement.

"Who says it's not. Yi'er's father has no official title, no salary, and relies on Yi'er's grandfather's family to support her, so the accumulation of time and money, even if there is gold and silver, it is nothing... So Yi'er has always blamed her Dad, I think that book hurt him and our whole family."

The misery is unspeakable, and it is also due to Mrs. Murong's good temper. If it were Lu Xinjun and Yao Yanping, she might have messed up a long time ago!
"Then Uncle Murong's illness... what kind of performance is it?"

Mrs. Murong said that she had never seen the book, so it was useless to ask, so Yun Xuan started with Murong Chun's symptoms, and wanted to know how he behaved when he was ill.

"This... I can't tell. I feel hot and cold, and I look a little crazy. I have to drink ginseng to make it better."

Feeling that I don't want to recall that scene at all, she held Yun Xuan's hand, and Mrs. Murong begged, "Xuan'er, you want to help us, and we appreciate your kindness. In the future, if you can, come and see Me, talk to me. But I want to ask you one thing... About your uncle's illness, you don't want to talk about it. After all, this is also a family scandal. If people know about it, our Murong family's heroic image will be terrible Even if it is destroyed..."

"Don't worry, ma'am, I won't talk nonsense. As for my uncle's illness, I'll go back and think of a way to see if I can find out the cause and prescribe the right medicine."

Nodding her head, she responded to Mrs. Murong's words, but in Yun Xuan's heart, the words "hot and cold" kept circling around, which made her pay more attention...
