After saying that, Yu Huan looked at him carefully, trying to see his true appearance under the veil.

Chu Ming tightened his grip on the teacup slightly, then placed it on the table, raised his eyes to look at Yu Huan, and said vaguely:

"Why do you say that, sir? My hand just shook accidentally, it wasn't intentional."

Yu Huan didn't have any extra patience and directly pointed it out: "There's no one else here, stop pretending."

Chu Ming took off his veil, and an extremely handsome face came into Yu Huan's sight.

There is a light black mole on the tip of his nose, which is not out of place at all, but makes him look more charming.

Yu Huan's expression froze for a moment, and she inexplicably felt that he was somewhat familiar.

But I couldn't figure out who he was for a moment.

"I'm Zhao Lin," he said, "Zhao Jun's elder brother."

Yu Huantan opened his mouth slightly, surprise evident in his eyes.

No wonder it looked familiar.

It turned out to be the original owner's childhood sweetheart, Zhao Lin.

If she remembered correctly, when she was caught by Pei Junheng for the first time at Zuihuanlou, he said he was going there to investigate a case.

Zhao Lin probably came to her because of the case that Pei Junheng wanted to investigate.

What surprised her was how Zhao Lin knew that she would come to Yuyin Pavilion today?

Yu Huan pondered secretly in his heart, without showing any clues on his face. He changed a new cup, added new tea, and said in a calm tone, "Who is Zhao Jun? I don't know him."

Zhao Lin's jaw suddenly tightened, and he said solemnly:

"How could you not know Mr. Zhao? You grew up together as childhood sweethearts! You were best friends with him when you were little, and you even said you wanted to marry him!"

Yu Huan's eyes flickered as he asked in a leisurely tone, "Should I know Mr. Zhao?"

Zhao Lin frowned, "Could it be that now that you've become the Queen, you've forgotten the past?"

He changed from his usual gentle demeanor to an expression of extreme resentment.

Yu Huan felt as if this was his true face.

"I might as well tell you," Yu Huan said, "I had a head injury a while ago, and I don't remember a lot of things."

Zhao Lin's eyes suddenly turned cold and stern. "You woman are full of lies!"

Yu Huan sipped his tea leisurely, "Believe it or not."

Don't stay here for long.

No one can guarantee that Zhao Lin will not do something extreme.

Yu Huan put down the teacup and slowly stood up, but his resentful voice rang out behind him.

"Pei Junheng killed my brother, don't you want to avenge him?"

"Don't you know how violent and cruel the person next to you is? In order to win your heart, Pei Junheng designed Zhao Jun to die on the battlefield!"

"Pei Junheng even wanted to kill me to silence me. If I hadn't dodged everywhere and escaped capture, I would have been killed by him long ago!"

Yu Huan paused slightly, but complex rays of light flashed under her butterfly-like eyelashes.

He said that Zhao Jun was murdered by Pei Junheng?

Just to win the original owner's heart?

She hadn't spent much time with Pei Junheng, but she felt that he was not a scheming person.

There must be a misunderstanding.

Yu Huan calmed down and glanced at him dimly, "This is a matter between you two, it has nothing to do with me."

Zhao Lin's eyebrows suddenly furrowed, his eyes were gloomy and terrifying, and he said coldly:

"Yu Huan, you are so heartless. For the sake of fame and fortune, you can even abandon the person you once loved so deeply!"

Yu Huan didn't want to waste time talking to him and strode out.

But he never expected that Zhao Lin had already anticipated this.

She lowered her eyes and saw an extremely sharp blade across her neck.

Zhao Lin's eyes were filled with hatred as he spoke word by word:

"You want to stand by and watch? I will never allow you to do that! If you don't help Zhao Jun kill Pei Junheng, I will kill you!"

Yu Huan raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of laughter in his tone, "Do you think I can kill the king of a country with my ability? You think too highly of me."

"You are his queen and you spend too much time with him. If you can't do it, who else can?" Zhao Lin said.

Yu Huan shrugged, his expression showing no sign of confusion. He glanced at him and said, "If you don't believe me, forget it."

"You..." Zhao Lin was so angry that his face darkened.

The next moment, the brute force in his hand increased a bit, and the blade went an inch into her neck.

Yu Huan's skin was delicate, and a scar appeared with a thin layer of blood beads when it was touched lightly.

She endured the pain and said:

"Pei Junheng has so many personal guards, how can I get close to him? I've been married into the palace for so long, and I haven't even had a bed with him."

What you can't do now is to anger him.

Just to delay time.

Pei Wanyue had already gone to change her clothes. She must have soon realized that she was in deep trouble and went to get help.

Zhao Lin stared at her intently, a glint of doubt flashed across his eyes, and he sneered:

"How could you not sleep with me? Don't try to deceive me. I'm not Zhao Jun. I won't be fooled by you!"

Yu Huan was silent for a few moments, his eyes rolling up to the sky.

She has such a bad temper that I can't stand it at all!

I really want to kill him with one punch!

Zhao Lin applied a little more force to his hands, "Speak!"

Yu Huan sighed, "If I were favored, I wouldn't come out to seek pleasure!"

Fuck the meow's favor.

She didn't want to hang herself on a tree.

Wouldn’t it be nice to change your taste every day?

Wealth cannot limit her imagination.

Zhao Lin took out a black pill from the bottle and immediately handed it to Yu Huan.

Yu Huan subconsciously leaned back and closed his mouth tightly.

Zhao Lin put the sharp knife to her throat and said threateningly, "If you don't eat it, I will stab your throat."

Yu Huan's eyelashes trembled suddenly, but she didn't open her mouth.

She knew that she was useful to Zhao Lin and he would not do anything rash for the time being.

But the next moment, Zhao Lin suddenly pinched her jaw, forcing her to open her mouth and stuffed the pill in.

This sudden action startled Yu Huan, and he swallowed the pill inadvertently.

She wanted to bend over and throw up.

But he was restrained by Zhao Lin's fierce eyes.

Yu Huan reluctantly greeted his entire family in her heart.

Zhao Lin's voice suddenly reached her ears, "You have taken the poison. If you don't take the antidote within a month, you will die suddenly."

After a pause, Zhao Lin's eyes flashed with an evil smile, "But if you take Pei Junheng's life during this period, I will give you the antidote."

He had originally poisoned the wine glass.

Who knew that Yu Huan didn't drink the wine, but instead drank tea.

Fortunately, I prepared a few extra ones, otherwise I would have returned empty-handed.

Yu Huan's eyes grew colder as she glanced at him, "You might as well kill me."

"Killing you would be so boring." Zhao Lin said sinisterly, "I just want to use you to kill Pei Junheng. It must be unpleasant to be killed by the one you love, hahahaha!"

Yu Huan said coldly, "Madman."

Even if she was fed poison, she would not assassinate Pei Junheng.

Pei Junheng has no grudge against her, why would she do this?

To survive in order to obtain the antidote? Not really.

At worst, it can be retrained.

at the same time.

There was a noise at the door.

Zhao Lin glanced outside warily.

An arrow flashed in and hit him.

Zhao Lin wanted to push Yu Huan over to block the arrow, but he was one step too late.

He was wounded in the left arm by an arrow and fell to the ground weightlessly.

Yu Huan quickly ran to the door and bumped into Pei Junheng who was just coming in.

She stopped in her tracks suddenly and braked in time to avoid crashing into his arms.

Pei Junheng was followed by a group of armored guards, including Pei Wanyue who was running over.

So it was Pei Wanyue who went to ask for help?

Pei Junheng's eyes swept across her wound that was bleeding, his expression suddenly turned cold, and he raised his crossbow and aimed it at Zhao Lin.

Zhao Lin's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Pei Junheng and roared:

"Pei Junheng, you are truly despicable! Not only did you frame my brother, you also framed me!"

"You didn't let Yu Huan out on purpose, did you? You wanted to lure the snake out of its hole and then capture me!"

"As expected of an emperor, his scheming is indeed deeper than that of ordinary people!"

He clapped his hands and laughed as he spoke.

Pei Wanyue stepped forward and said impatiently, "What nonsense are you talking about? I went to find my brother!"

It's really strange to say.

As soon as she ran out of the Yuyin Pavilion, she ran into her royal brother coming towards her.

Zhao Lin's eyes were as vicious as a snake and scorpion, and he sneered repeatedly, "You are his sister, of course you cover up for him!"

He suddenly looked at Yu Huan and spoke slowly, "I told you he was cruel, but you refused to believe me. Now you believe me, don't you?"

Yu Huan said nothing, just glanced at Zhao Lin indifferently.

Zhao Lin wanted to say something, but Pei Junheng pressed his knuckles and a sharp arrow shot towards him.

"Squeak——" Zhao Lin's right arm was also pierced by an arrow.

He was in so much pain that a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead. He glared at Pei Junheng with his teeth bared. "You won't let me speak now, right? Pei Junheng, you're clearly feeling guilty!"

Pei Junheng's voice was cold and hard, "Take him away!"

Accompanied by the sound of uniform footsteps, the armored guards had already captured Zhao Lin.

Yu Huan immediately looked at Zhao Lin and raised his eyebrows to signal him to take out the antidote.

Zhao Lin turned a blind eye and even contemplated biting his lip to commit suicide.

The armored guards immediately stepped forward to stop them, and the scene became chaotic.

Yu Huan cursed angrily, "Fuck you, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"

In the chaos, Zhao Lin was taken away and Yu Huan did not receive any response.

Pei Wanyue trotted over to Yu Huan's side, her face filled with worry. "Sister-in-law, are you in pain?"

"Not bad." Yu Huan looked at Pei Junheng and said word by word, "Did you know that we would leave the palace and come here?"

She felt that everything was too coincidental and there was no reason not to be suspicious.

Pei Wanyue was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Sister-in-law, are you kidding me? My brother is not a worm in our stomachs, so how would he know we were here?"

Yu Huan pursed her lips, but her tone was unusually cold and sharp, "A Wan, please go out first. I have something to discuss with your brother."

Although Pei Wanyue was careless, she was smart. When she realized something was wrong, she ran away.

Pei Wanyue closed the door of the wing room.

Yu Huan let the wound on her neck bleed, her clear eyes locked on his expression as she asked, "Pei Junheng, I want your truth."

Pei Junheng's serious face was as cold as ever, and he raised his eyebrows slightly, "What do you mean?"

Yu Huan threw his robe aside and sat down, taking a sip of tea, his tone as light as the tea:

"You first took over Zuihuan Tower, and then asked Eunuch Liu to take you away, making us mistakenly believe that you had official business to attend to, giving you the opportunity to slip away to Yuyin Pavilion."

"Zhao Lin is the person you've been looking for. You knew he would come looking for me, so you set up this trap specifically to capture him."

"So you've been watching from the dark the whole time. Why didn't you come out earlier, but waited until I was injured?"

She thought she could remain calm, but she found herself becoming more and more excited the more she spoke.

He even frowned silently and stared at Pei Junheng seriously.

Pei Junheng's expression was extremely frank, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, "I didn't use you."

Yu Huan said nothing.

Pei Junheng looked at her and said calmly:

"I received a tip that Zhao Lin suddenly appeared at the Imperial Sound Pavilion. I came here specifically to arrest someone, but unexpectedly, I ran into a panicked Wanwan upon arriving at the Imperial Sound Pavilion."

Yu Huan raised her eyes to look at him, her gaze filled with scrutiny.

She couldn't detect anything unusual, but felt that his expression was particularly frank. She pursed her lips and said, "Okay, I misunderstood you."

Pei Junheng took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and pressed it against her wound that was bleeding. "I'll send someone to call the imperial physician."

"No need," Yu Huan said, "It'll take a while for the imperial physician to come out of the palace, so it's better to go back directly."

As the world spun, the jade hairpin fell, and her soft black hair drew a beautiful arc in the air.

By the time Yu Huan reacted, she was already in Pei Junheng's arms.

She took advantage of the situation and put her arms around Pei Junheng's neck. She couldn't help but say, "Put me down. My neck is injured, not my leg."

Pei Junheng glanced at her and said, "Queen, if you say one more word, I won't mind leaving you behind."

Yu Huan was a little speechless, "You're still acting like a domineering boss."

"What did you say?" Pei Junheng's eyes flashed with suspicion. He always felt that she was saying something that he couldn't understand.

"Nothing." Yu Huan twisted uncomfortably and didn't continue speaking.

Pei Junheng carried her downstairs.

The Yuyin Pavilion was filled with a large number of people, and when they heard the noise, they all turned their eyes over.

Although Yu Huan was wearing men's clothes, she had her hair down, revealing her charming and shining side.

They couldn't help but look at it a few more times.

Pei Junheng raised his arms slightly and held her tightly in his arms, preventing outsiders from seeing her.

Yu Huan felt a little breathless. Just as she was about to speak, Pei Junheng carried her into the carriage and placed her on the cushion.

Smelling the fresh air, Yu Huan's expression finally relaxed.

She glanced at Pei Junheng secretly and couldn't help muttering in her heart.

He knew she came to Yuyin Pavilion, but he didn't get angry?

It's really rare!

This made her doubt the truthfulness of what he had just said.

Pei Junheng glanced at her and gently scolded her, "Yu Huan, will you behave yourself if I tie you to the wall?"

It's time to come.

Yu Huan touched the tip of his nose and said, "You make me sound like a heartless man."

"Aren't you?" Pei Junheng asked back.

Yu Huan shook his head, "No."

"You have the nerve to deny it." Pei Junheng sneered, "If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have been beaten to a pulp by Zhao Lin!"

"Don't you want to know why he came to see me?" Yu Huan suddenly asked him.

There was silence in the carriage for a moment, and there was even a strange atmosphere.

Pei Junheng's eyebrows were full of his usual majesty, his eyes were as dark as the abyss, "Just say it if you have something to say."

"Then you have to make a deal with me." Yu Huan asked, "What did he do that you want to arrest him?"

If Pei Junheng told the truth, she would tell her about the poisoning.
