Chapter 205 I think she will do something bad

Wei Mingliang felt the wound on his body and said firmly, "That cup of tea."

"Your Highness, are you sure?" Zhao Shiqi asked, "From what the princess said, those two palace maids had touched the cup of tea."

"Confirmed." Wei Mingliang drank half a cup of water with a bamboo tube to moisten his throat. "The maid who fed me tea had a wound on her hand, and it was wrapped in gauze. She was not afraid even if the teacup was poisoned. The other maid was good at martial arts. I suspect she is someone of Emperor Shunguang. She is most likely a secret guard and the one who poisoned the teacup."

"The aura of a martial artist is indeed different from that of an ordinary person. Your Highness is highly skilled in martial arts, so it is not difficult for you to tell." Zhao Shiqi looked at him, "But how can Your Highness be sure that she is the one who poisoned her?"

"When another maid went to serve tea, the maid who was good at martial arts tried to stop her." Wei Mingliang recalled the situation at that time. "She was an insider and didn't protect her hands. She should not be afraid of the poison in the teacup. I think it is very likely that she was the one who poisoned the teacup."

Zhao Shiqi said: "Perhaps the palace maid used the antidote in advance."

"It is indeed possible." Wei Mingliang nodded.

He did not tell Zhao Shiqi the truth, as his intuition told him that the person who poisoned him was the palace maid who was good at martial arts.

When he was drinking tea, he had a bad feeling, but he just thought that Chu Liuzheng was going to accidentally spill the tea on him, so he was just on guard against Chu Liuzheng's actions. He didn't expect that the teacup was poisonous.

He felt that Chu Liuzheng should also be an insider.

If she hadn't accidentally dropped the teacup and the tea hadn't splashed on his cheeks and neck, he would never have touched those places with the hand holding the teacup, and he wouldn't have been poisoned so badly.

They are all in the same gang!
Thinking of this, he became so angry that his pupils darkened and murderous intent floated in his eyes, but after Zhao Shiqi coughed, he quickly suppressed it.

Zhao Shiqi said: "Your Highness, please do not mess up the overall situation because of a small matter."

Wei Mingliang suppressed his anger and said, "Thank you for your advice, Mr.

Zhao Shiqi took the empty teacup from his hand and asked, "What are you going to do next, Your Highness?"

"According to the plan." Wei Mingliang said, "Emperor Shunguang is very satisfied with the painting I sent, and he believes what Yin Taiyu and I said. I'm sure he will agree if we go to the palace to discuss it a few more times. Once the alliance is signed, he won't be able to regret it."

Zhao Shiqi was not so optimistic. "Your Highness, have you forgotten about the Losing Heart Pill?"

Wei Mingliang froze. It was indeed because he was too anxious to give Chu Liuzheng the Heart-Losing Pill.

He originally thought that if he couldn't find out the truth, it would be ruined, just to see how Emperor Shunguang would use a madman. He didn't expect that he would be discovered, and many spies planted in the Dasheng Palace were also found out. It was really a misstep.

Zhao Shiqi stared at him and said, "Your Highness, do you think that with the Losing Heart Pill in front of you, Emperor Shunguang will not be suspicious of you at all?"

"We Xixia have planted spies in his Dasheng palace, and Dasheng has also planted spies. However, it is a tacit agreement, and whether or not we can find out depends on our own ability." Wei Mingliang felt that the impact was not significant. "Emperor Shunguang is not a man who acts on impulse. No matter how turbulent the undercurrent is, when there is profit to be made, enemies can be turned into allies."

"Emperor Shunguang is not a man who acts on impulse. What about Your Highness?" Zhao Shiqi asked with a scrutinizing look, "Your Highness, can you tell me why you care so much about an ordinary palace maid?"

Wei Mingliang lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then whispered a few words: "I think she will do something bad."

"Oh?" Zhao Shiqi wanted to hear the details.

Wei Mingliang couldn't give a specific reason, he could only say: "Sir, trust me, I won't act rashly before the covenant is signed."

"I hope Your Highness can keep his word." Zhao Shiqi's expression eased a little and asked, "Your Highness, do you not care about the poisoning?"

"It's not the right time." A dark light flashed across Wei Mingliang's eyes.

Those who achieve great things must endure things that ordinary people cannot endure. Zhao Shiqi nodded secretly and reminded: "Your Highness should make arrangements for the princess as soon as possible."

Wei Mingliang raised his eyes to look at him: "What do you mean, sir?"

Zhao Shiqi smiled and said, "As the saying goes, gentleness breeds heroes. Sometimes, once the pillow talk blows, no matter how wise and brave you are, you will be confused. I think it's time to send the princess to the palace."

Wei Mingliang thought about it and felt that it was indeed a good time to send Wei Ming Yujin into the palace. He nodded: "Just as you say, sir."

After the matter was settled, Zhao Shiqi stood up and said, "Your Highness, please have a good rest. I am leaving now."

"Wait a minute, sir." Wei Mingliang stopped him, "Who cured me of the poison?"

Zhao Shiqi said, "Lord Tuoba went to the palace to invite back a doctor from Wei, who seemed to be very good at this. He was the one who bandaged your wound."

"Wei?" Wei Mingliang frowned. How come he remembered that the imperial physician in the palace who was good at detoxification was named Huang?
Seeing that his expression was not right, Zhao Shiqi asked, "What's wrong?"

"I remember there was a doctor in the palace who was good at detoxification. His name was Huang." Wei Mingliang raised his hand and touched his head. "Maybe I got it wrong."

Zhao Shiqi sent Doctor Wei out this morning. Judging from his conversation and insights into medical skills, he should be the imperial physician.

He said, "The imperial doctors in the palace are all experts in detoxification, and there is more than one who is good at detoxification. Your Highness is worrying too much."

Wei Mingliang also felt that he was a little paranoid. He nodded and watched Zhao Shiqi leave.

He sat there for a while, then suddenly remembered something and shouted, "Someone come!"

The chief guard pushed the door open and bowed to ask, "What do you want, Your Highness?"

Wei Mingliang looked at him and asked, "Where is Yao Zhou?"

The chief guard said, "I have not seen him today."

Wei Mingliang had a bad feeling and ordered, "Call him here immediately. I have something to ask him."

The captain of the guards took the order and went to do it.

The courtyard was so small that the chief guard returned in a moment and reported, "Your Highness, Yao Zhou has not returned since he followed you into the palace yesterday."

The premonition came true. Wei Mingliang felt that everything was going wrong. He wanted to send the captain of the guards to bring the person back and arrest everyone in the grocery store. But then he remembered that he had just promised Zhao Shiqi not to act rashly. He pounded the bed in frustration.

Because of the force, the scratches on the back of his hands and arms split open, and blood oozed out, slowly spreading into a pool on the white gauze.

"Your Highness, please do not hurt yourself!" The captain of the guards knelt down, his voice anxious.

Wei Mingliang looked up at him and said, "Come here."

The captain of the guard approached.

Wei Mingliang whispered a few words in his ear, and then said, "Do it secretly, don't let anyone get caught."

The chief guard bowed and said, "I obey your command!"

At the same time, in Princess Xixia's bedroom.

"Princess, Princess, something bad has happened." The maid rushed in and closed all the doors and windows.

Princess Xixia was applying a mask to her swollen eyes. When she heard the shout, she opened her eyes in shock and asked, "What's wrong? Is my second brother crazy again?"

The maid choked. Why did her princess sound expectant?
"Your Highness is fine." She squatted down in front of Princess Xixia and said anxiously, "I just overheard your Highness and Mr. discussing sending you to the palace as soon as possible."

"Oh." Princess Xixia closed her eyes again, not at all as anxious as the maid thought.

The maid was stunned for a moment, then grabbed her hands and shook them gently, "Princess, you can't enter the palace. If you enter the palace, what will happen to Master Helan?"

"Shan has returned home." Princess Xixia opened her eyes, with a hint of sadness flowing in her bright eyes. "He will have a new moon, and I will bless him."
