After the death escape, I became the white moonlight of the crazy tyrant

Wen Hemian was confused: "I didn't go anywhere."

Xie Lang said sourly: "What's that smell on your body, Master?"

"?"

Wen Hemian was stunned by the question, but after he reacted, he raised his hand and sniffed it, then laughed: "When I came out, I met Alina. Her fragrance was too strong, so I might have gotten some of it."

Xie Lang frowned: "The princess from the barbarian tribe?"

"Yes." Wen Hemian nodded, then looked at the imperial physician who had finished the examination and stood aside without daring to say anything, "Is there something wrong with the wine?"

Everyone in the palace knew that Lord Wen had a good temper. Since they were not facing the emperor alone, the imperial physicians were much more relaxed: "Replying to Lord Wen, there is a hallucinogenic poison mixed in the wine. It is not fatal. Even if you drink it, it will only make you dazed for half an incense stick. If the Chinese medicine practitioner is not careful, he may not be able to find it himself."

Weird.

"You went through so much trouble just to poison me?"

Wen Hemian was puzzled.

But if it doesn't work, why go through all the trouble of poisoning someone?

and many more……

The body reacted faster than the brain, and Wen Hemian quickly took a big step back, saying anxiously: "The smell, it's my smell."

All things are interdependent and mutually exclusive. Some seemingly unrelated things, when combined together, can produce unexpected effects, and this is true for both medicine and poison.

Otherwise, even if it was Xie Lang in the original book, who grew up in an environment full of crises and should have been well trained, how could he have fallen for it so easily?

The moment Wen Hemian finished speaking, Xie Lang also realized something. Just as he was about to speak, Wen Hemian took the lead and said, "Don't worry, I'll go to the side hall to take a bath. Your Majesty, find another imperial physician to see if it's what I guessed, and let him take a look at you as well."

You don't necessarily have to drink it. The smell evaporates in the air and no one knows if it will have the same effect.

In any case, Wen Hemian doesn't dare to continue contacting Xie Lang rashly.

Xie Lang understood this truth. Although he was still a little worried, he nodded: "Okay."

He gave orders for the arrangements and secretly assigned more people to continue keeping an eye on Alina.

Seeing that things were going in an orderly manner, Wen Hemian did not delay any longer and quickly went to the side hall to take a bath. There was a natural pool here with a constant temperature all year round, so there was no need to prepare water on short notice.

Everything in the palace must be done with caution, especially when Wen Hemian is hiding his identity.

Fortunately, she would occasionally stay overnight in the palace and had prepared several sets of clothes. She instructed a secret guard to get them, and asked the remaining secret guards to guard the area before she felt at ease to take off her clothes and take a bath.

It’s a pity that such a good official uniform suffered such an unexpected disaster after only being worn for one day.

Wen Hemian sighed and thought to himself that his fate was unfortunate.

She did not dare to relax and washed her body carefully. After making sure there was no residual smell, she changed into the clothes brought back by the secret guard.

This delay is enough time for Xie Lang to get the results.

Facts have proved that her intuition was correct. The combination of these two things can really produce some not-so-good effects. As the only unlucky guy who has had close contact with them, Xie Lang unfortunately fell into the trap.

Fortunately, the dosage was very light and the problem was gone after taking one dose.

"It seems that they have taken great pains to prevent us from finding out."

The smell floating in the air is the most difficult to guard against. Once Xie Lang touches the alcohol, even if he realizes that there is something wrong with Alina when he comes into contact with her, it will be too late.

Xie Lang also went to take a bath.

It was enough for them to show up. There was no need for them to personally entertain the foreign envoys throughout the entire process. They had no intention of returning to the front hall.

"But I feel that Princess Alina doesn't seem to be on the same page with them."

Thinking of Alina's strange behavior when she was leaving the hall, Wen Hemian was still a little confused.

Xie Lang sat next to Wen Hemian. After listening, he said, "Maybe, but if they dare to attack you and me, we can't let them stay."

A hint of murderous intent was brewing in Xie Lang's eyes.

"I know." Yun Qing did not refute his words, thinking calmly, "I just think that Alina can be used."

If a normal person wanted to poison someone, at least they wouldn't make the person smell so fragrant that it could be smelled from a long distance away. Wen Hemian had a hunch that Alina did it on purpose.

The world is changing rapidly. Wen Hemian never expected that future developments would be exactly the same as the original book. At this moment, she was more and more certain that something unexpected had happened in the middle that she didn't know about.

Thinking about it, Wen Hemian glanced sideways, sized up the Emperor who had been silent since returning from his bath, and suggested, "How about your Majesty, pretend to be sick?"

If something happens to the emperor at the banquet, everyone present will be suspected, not to mention the foreign envoys. Wouldn't it be natural for them to be put under supervision?

The imperial physician was still staring at the decoction. Not sure if it was due to the poison, Xie Lang felt a little hot for no reason. It was not until Wen Hemian looked over that he spoke, "Hmm."

The voice was low, and if you listened carefully, it sounded a bit hoarse.

Wen Hemian immediately noticed the difference in his appearance, and his expression became complicated: "Seriously speaking, it's not like he's pretending to be sick."

Xie Lang smiled bitterly: "Master, please stop teasing me."

Wen Hemian said calmly: "I call this stating the facts."

The defense is tight tonight. After Huo Ping finished his own business, he hurried here.

He didn't know what was going on yet. When he arrived, he saw that both of them had changed their clothes. A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes: "Your Majesty, Lord Wen."

Wen Hemian suddenly dropped a bombshell: "Your Majesty has been poisoned?"

"what?!"

Huo Ping reacted quickly. As someone who had been following Xie Lang from the beginning, he was bolder than others. He looked at Xie Lang for a long time but didn't find anything wrong. However, he wisely didn't ask any questions.

Xie Lang slowed down and finally turned his gaze to him: "I want you to take people to surround the posthouse."

Huo Ping understood what he meant: "I obey your orders!"

His Majesty and the Imperial Teacher must have discussed something again. Huo Ping doesn't need to worry about it. He just needs to do as he is told. The reasons have been given.

Commander Huo was sharpening his knife and looked impatient.

Xie Lang waved his hand and let him go.

The palace banquet ended smoothly, both the host and the guests had a great time, and it seemed peaceful. After the banquet, everyone went back to their homes.

But no one expected that that evening, news of the emperor's poisoning spread from the palace. The commander of the imperial guards was ordered to investigate and immediately surrounded the inn with his men.

The envoys were terrified. Although most of them did not dare to speak, some of them were impatient and could not help but ask: "Is His Majesty the Great Zhao Emperor so unreasonable? We have a clear conscience, why are you keeping us under guard?"

"Whether you have a clear conscience or not, you will know when the results come out."

Amid the flickering light of the torches, a man walked out from behind the imperial guards. He was dressed in black, with a scimitar on his waist, and looked very imposing.

With a hawk-like gaze, Huo Ping slowly swept over, and said with a fake smile: "It's just a routine investigation. You're not yelling because you feel guilty."

The cold sound of swords being drawn reached their ears, and everyone immediately became quiet.
