Poisonous Pet World: The War King's Heart-stealing Medical Concubine

Murong Zixi took out an exquisite porcelain bottle from her bosom and gently placed it on the table, her tone serious and solemn: "One pill a day can help you temporarily stabilize the toxins in your body. Before you find the Ghost Withered Flower and refine the antidote, you must not use any internal strength, otherwise once the toxin attacks your heart, even a god cannot save you."

Jun Feimo took the porcelain bottle, put it in his arms with great care, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

He looked at Murong Zixi deeply, nodded slightly, turned around and left, leaving only one sentence: "It's getting late, I won't disturb Xier, Xier, go to bed early."

As the door closed gently, the room returned to silence.

Murong Zixi sat quietly at the table, staring in the direction where Jun Feimo left. She felt a little heavy-hearted, so she suppressed her inappropriate thoughts and stood up.

She walked to the bed and lay down slowly. Giving acupuncture to Jun Feimo just now had consumed a lot of her energy. Her body was weak to begin with, and she was really exhausted.

She closed her eyes, relaxed her body, and let herself be absorbed in the tranquility.

After a while, Murong Zixi went to play chess with Zhou Gong.

The next morning, just as the sky was getting light, a hint of paleness began to appear in the eastern sky, and the outlines of the mountains in the distance gradually became apparent.

At this moment, a crisp and slightly urgent knock on the door broke the tranquility of the general's mansion.

"Miss, wake up, Miss..." Xiaolu's voice came from outside the door, mixed with a bit of anxiety.

At this time, Murong Zixi was sleeping soundly. The exhaustion from last night made her fall into a deep sleep. She wasn't awake yet and didn't want to pay attention to him. She turned over and continued to sleep.

Xiaolu knocked on the door gently, but there was no response from inside.

Her hands dropped limply, and an anxious look appeared on her face.

She turned to look at Xiao Cui who was also anxious beside her and asked in a low voice: "What should we do? The eldest lady hasn't gotten up yet."

Xiao Cui frowned, her eyes revealing deep worry. They looked at each other, their hearts filled with anxiety.

As time passed, their anxiety grew.

Finally, Xiao Cui couldn't help but raise her voice and shouted, "Miss, get up quickly, Princess Heshun is here and wants to see you!"

This sentence was like a thunderclap, causing Murong Zixi to open her eyes suddenly.

Princess Heshun? The name flashed through her mind. Murong Zixi frowned impatiently, rubbed her hazy eyes with her hands, yawned, and barely propped up her heavy body. She slowly got out of bed and walked towards the door with tired steps.

He opened the door, half leaned against the door frame, squinted his eyes and looked at the two people in front of him, his voice still carrying a bit of laziness and dissatisfaction from not waking up, "It's just coming, why are you in such a hurry?"

I saw Xiaolu and Xiaocui standing at the door, looking anxious.

Xiaolu said anxiously: "Miss, didn't you get a good rest last night? Princess Heshun has a bad temper. If you keep her waiting for a long time, she will probably be angry."

"Why did Princess Heshun suddenly come here so early in the morning?" Murong Zixi rubbed her eyes, her tone somewhat displeased.

"Miss, you'd better wash up quickly and go meet Princess Heshun." Xiaolu urged.

Xiao Cui immediately added in a low voice: "Miss, Princess Shunhe is the mother of Prince Xiao. She just returned to the capital yesterday, and she couldn't wait to come to your house today. I'm afraid she has bad intentions this time..."

Murong Zixi was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then nodded, turned and walked into the room.

Xiao Cui walked in with hot water and placed it on a shelf nearby.

Xiao Lu couldn't help but feel a little worried, and couldn't help but remind her: "Miss, I heard that Master Xiao's leg was broken after he went back that day. Now Princess Shunhe's sudden visit, is it related to Master Xiao's leg? Is she here to cause trouble for you..."

When Murong Zixi heard this, she immediately understood. It turned out that it was because of this incident that she had almost forgotten about.

"What are you afraid of? Xiao Xuanyi's legs have nothing to do with me."

No one saw that it was her who did it. No, it was Hua Qianyi who saw it, but she felt that he shouldn't say it. If he wanted to say it, he would have said it then and not wait until now.

Never mind, just wait and see and you’ll find out.

"Miss, why don't we think of a way to hide first? Princess Heshun has a really bad temper. What if she blames you for Master Xiao's leg?" Xiaolu said anxiously.

Murong Zixi shook her head and said firmly: "No need. When the enemy comes, we will fight back with soldiers and when the water comes, we will block it with earth. Besides, how can we hide?" After that, she began to wash up.

Xiaolu and Xiaocui looked at each other, sighed helplessly, and could only stand aside silently and watch Murong Zixi wash up.

After Murong Zixi finished washing up, Xiaolu and Xiaocui hurried to follow, feeling uneasy but not daring to say anything.

Murong Zixi walked to the dressing table and sat down, while Xiao Cui carefully combed her long hair.

Xiaolu whispered quietly, "Miss, I heard that Princess Heshun returned to the capital yesterday."

Murong Zixi smiled at herself in the bronze mirror. She raised her eyebrows slightly and asked calmly, "Oh? Why did Princess Heshun return to Beijing just now?"

Xiao Lu quickly replied, "I heard from them that Princess Heshun took the princess out of the capital to travel south, so they shouldn't come back so soon. They must have returned to the capital early because of Master Xiao's matter."

Murong Zixi's heart moved, and she continued to ask: "So that's how it is. By the way, Xiaolu, do you know Princess Heshun? Tell me about it."

Xiao Lu frowned slightly, looking embarrassed: "Ah? I'm not sure either, but I just heard it from people in the mansion..."

Murong Zixi encouraged her with a smile: "It's okay, tell me everything you heard."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Lu immediately said with great interest: "Miss, you don't know that Princess Heshun is a legendary figure! It is said that the Queen Mother raised her since she was a child and doted on her like her own daughter. Later, after she married Xiao Ling, the top scholar of that year, she attracted even more attention. Two years after the marriage, she gave birth to a son and a daughter. She was originally very happy!"

"But later, Princess Heshun moved back to the Princess Mansion for some reason and kept many male lovers in the Princess Mansion, which caused quite a sensation in the capital at the time."

Hearing this, Murong Zixi widened her eyes. Princess Heshun was really furious.

"And what about Xiao Ling, the number one scholar back then? He now holds an idle position in the court and is quite decadent. He has long lost the glory of the number one scholar he once was. He also turned a blind eye to Princess Heshun's keeping a lover."

"Princess Heshun, she asked the emperor to give her son and daughter the title of Crown Princess. Normally, the emperor would not agree to this based on Princess Heshun's ridiculous behavior over the years.

After all, Princess Heshun was raised by the Queen Mother. Once the Queen Mother intervened, the Emperor had to give Princess Heshun some face and conferred titles of Crown Prince and Princess on Princess Heshun’s children.”
