The Self-cultivation of a Salted Fish Concubine

After Xie Run opened his eyes, he felt his mind was much more relaxed.

It's like a mirror covered with ashes. After wiping it, the world becomes much clearer.

She smiled at Xie Jiang, like the first red plum blossom blooming in early winter.

Pure and charming, it is particularly alluring when hanging on the branches.

"Sister..."

Xie Jiang could feel that Xie Run was completely dependent on her.

Touching her wholehearted smile, Xie Jiang said unconsciously: "Don't worry, you won't be in danger with me here."

After saying that, Xie Jiang felt a little regretful.

I secretly sigh that beauty can mislead people.

Xie Run smiled and said, "Sister, I believe you."

You are the woman holding the script of the heroine!

Xie Jiang: “…”

Xie Jiang actually doesn't have any feelings for his sister Xie Run.

But since she took Xie Jiang's body, she naturally had to bear part of the responsibility.

It happened that she was going to the capital to look for the man she met that night, so she took the opportunity to visit her sister who was lying in the palace as a concubine.

Unexpectedly, Xie Run would trust her so much.

She claimed to be a cold-hearted person, but when she heard Xie Run say with a smile, "I believe you," her heart inexplicably softened a little.

"You continue to rest, I'll go check on your yard."

Before Xie Run could speak, Xie Jiang had already stood up.

It has a bit of the meaning of fleeing in panic.

Xie Run thought that her sister was quite interesting.

Xie Run: "Dan Tao, Xiao Shu, help me up."

She was also curious about how she was tricked.

Xie Run changed his clothes and put on a cloak trimmed with white rabbit fur.

Her hair was half loose and she hadn't done her makeup, which made her small face look even more charming and beautiful.

As soon as he came out, Xie Run saw Xie Jiang standing by her flower bed.

Xie Run approached and said in a soft voice, "Sister, is there something wrong with these flowers?"

Xie Jiang's voice was cold, "It's not the flowers that are the problem, it's the soil."

"earth?"

Xie Run was stunned.

This was a direction they had never expected.

"This soil has always been here...how could there be a problem?"

Xie Jiang: "This soil has a fragrance, it must have been poisoned. It's just that the fragrance of the flowers in your yard is too strong, covering up the smell of the soil."

Xie Run suddenly thought of the day when he saw Ma Pozi and Yueyaer watering the plants.

She immediately asked, "Could there be something wrong with the water?"

Xie Jiang stood up and looked at her with deep eyes. "It's possible."

Xie Run was very calm.

Maybe because I've seen more, I'm not that surprised anymore.

She only said to Dan Tao, "The prince went out to a banquet today and should not be back yet. Go and ask the princess to come over. By the way, ask Luzhi and Hongxi to question Ma Pozi and Yueya respectively."

Xie Run was not sure which of the two people betrayed her.

Xie Jiang observed for a while before saying, "The toxicity in the soil isn't serious and will evaporate over time. It must be watering it every day that has such a significant impact."

"What will happen if you smell this poison for a long time?"

Xie Jiang pondered for a moment before saying, "This poison is a psychotropic drug. It's ten times more harmful to pregnant women than to ordinary people. The initial symptoms are drowsiness, while in the middle and late stages, it causes mental confusion or even madness. If accidentally ingested, it may cause fetal deformities."

Dan Tao's face turned pale and her lips trembled when she heard this.

She didn't understand what psychiatric drugs were, but was frightened by the dire consequences described by Xie Jiang.

"My mistress has always been a non-competitive person. How could someone use such a vicious method to harm her?!"

Xie Jiang said something fair, "The backyard is a place where a group of people compete for resources. If you can live well without fighting or competing, it means that you have already occupied a lot of resources, and others will definitely be jealous."

Xie Run smiled helplessly, "I had long been prepared for someone to plot against me, but I didn't expect it to be so subtle and vicious."

The fragrance of osmanthus had been wafting through the yard for over a month, along with the scent of other flowers. How could she possibly have discovered that the soil had a fragrance?

Even if Xie Run was extremely careful, how could he prevent it?

Soon, the princess was invited over.

The imperial physician also came with him.

Xie Run saluted her and his eyes instantly turned red.

However, she did not cry first, but asked the imperial physician to check the soil in the flower garden.

The princess sat in the main room, quite majestic. "Your maidservant couldn't speak clearly. She just said you invited me. What happened?"

The princess has been very busy these days.

She has to take care of the mundane things in the backyard, she has to take care of Concubine Fang vomiting blood, and she has to take care of the eldest son's illness.

It is her duty to manage it well; it is her dereliction of duty if she does not manage it well.

The princess hadn't slept well for a few days, and two pimples appeared on her face, so her patience was not so good.

Xie Run: "Princess, you will know once the imperial physician has tested the result."

Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard the imperial physician exclaim, "This soil is poisonous!"

For a moment, everyone in the room's attention was drawn to the imperial physician.

Only then did Xie Run support Dan Tao and tell her everything that had happened today.

"When I heard that Concubine Fang suddenly vomited blood, I was terrified and called my sister into the mansion. But after an inspection, they discovered that the soil was poisonous."

"The person who poisoned me is extremely cruel. He wants to kill me and take my life!"

"If I'm not careful enough, and I continue to smell it for half a month or a month, I'll go completely insane. By then, whoever poisoned me will have to stop immediately. After a while, the poison in the soil will have evaporated, and not even a trace of it will be found!"

As Xie Run spoke, tears began to fall.

She was really frightened.

What kind of monsters and demons are hiding in the palace?

If it weren't for her elder sister, she would have died without a burial place.

When the princess and others heard this, they felt a chill in their hearts.

There was a warm charcoal fire burning in the room, but they only felt a chill rushing from the soles of their feet to the back of their heads.

What a vicious plan!

The princess took a deep breath and asked, "Have you found out who poisoned me?"

Xie Run shook his head. "The ones responsible for watering the flowers are Ma Pozi and Yueyaer. I didn't dare resort to private punishment, so I only sent a maid to get some information."

These two people were both bestowed by the princess.

Thinking of this, the princess suddenly had a bad feeling.

Last time, Concubine Yun had a miscarriage, and it was eventually traced back to someone in her courtyard. How many people laughed at the princess for slapping herself in the face?

If it happened again, not only would she be implicated in Xie Run's poisoning, but her dignity and face would also be completely destroyed.

The princess's eyes were filled with coldness. "Mother Li, take some people to pry open their mouths!"

"I want to see who's stirring up trouble in the backyard!"

At this moment, the princess was no longer a careless spectator sitting on the platform.

She revealed her hidden edge and displayed the majesty of Princess Jing.

After a while, Yueyaer and Ma Pozi appeared in front of the crowd.

Mother Li also brought a package wrapped in oil paper.

"Princess, this was found in this little girl's box!"

The imperial physician took the paper bag and smelled it, his face changed drastically.

"That's it. Just sniffing it makes you dizzy and numb. It's such a strong poison!"

Mother Li frowned and said to Yueya, "Tell me quickly, who ordered you to murder Concubine Xie?!"

"You dare to murder the concubine and the emperor's grandson at such a young age. You deserve to be beaten to death!"
