The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy

Chapter 306: Marquis Xuanping's Concubine

It was pitch black, so dark that you couldn’t see your hand in front of you.

However, Emperor Meiji walked as if on flat ground in the darkness, as if this was a place he had been to countless times. Eerie shouts could be heard faintly from the front.

He suddenly stopped and stepped on the ground. In an instant, the corridor became bright, and the source of the sound in front was a group of pure iron cages.

Emperor Meiji walked through without looking around. From time to time, hands were stretched out from both sides, shouting, "Let me out," but he remained unmoved.

He went straight to the last cage, where an old man sat, leaning against the corner with his head lowered, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive.

Emperor Meiji knocked the iron bars with his scabbard and shouted to him, "Poison King Xiao Yan!"

However, the person inside still did not react at all, not even moving a finger.

Emperor Meiji frowned unexpectedly, "Don't you want to know the news about the Marquis' wife?"

At this moment, the person inside finally raised his head, and a pair of cold eyes coiled around him like a snake, and even the emperor couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart.

"Is she dead?"

Emperor Meiji sneered, "Shouldn't you know best?"

Xiao Yan clenched his fists, as if he was extremely angry.

The messy long hair obscured the pair of old eyes that were difficult to read, which contained three parts of resentment, five parts of unwillingness and two parts of relief.

Even he himself didn't know what he was thankful for. Was he thankful that he didn't kill Qin Miaoxi?

"Don't you want revenge? I can give you this opportunity."

Xiao Yan looked up at him and suddenly laughed out loud, "When did I ever say I wanted revenge?"

Emperor Meiji was surprised, "You don't want her to die?"

"The fact that she survived means she's more toxic than anyone else. I'm willing to admit defeat."

His words revealed a sense of care and expectation for the younger generation.

Emperor Meiji remained silent, but his hand gripping the sword tightened again and again, and the air gradually became stagnant.

"Don't you want to get the antidote back for the Regent Princess?"

boom!

With a loud bang, Xiao Yan rushed in front of him. His old hands almost grabbed the front of Emperor Mingzhi's lapel and asked fiercely, "What do you mean by that?"

Emperor Meiji staggered back a few steps, cold sweat already breaking out on his back. He was almost caught.

He glanced at his lapel in shock, then puffed out his chest, assumed the demeanor of a king, and said with dignity, "How dare you!"

Xiao Yan was not afraid of him. If he had not been seriously injured and poisoned that day, he would never have been able to escape in such a hurry. In the end, he was trapped by the emperor's men and taken into the palace and imprisoned.

Now he only cared about the Regent Princess. He quickly understood what Emperor Mingzhi had said, "Are you saying that Qin Miaoxi poisoned the Princess?"

Emperor Meiji nodded and said, "That's right!"

"Impossible." Xiao Yan looked at him with a playful look again, "You are trying to trick me into doing something for you."

He is not stupid. Not to mention that Chi Feiwan's poison skills are better than his, even Qin Miaoxi's poison skills are better than his. Not to mention that Qin Miaoxi is Chi Feiwan's biological daughter. How could she poison Chi Feiwan?

The dog emperor didn't know the connection between the two, so he wanted to use this matter to deceive himself, haha!

Emperor Meiji stared at him scrutinizingly. "There's no need for me to lie to you. You and the Princess Regent are both poison kings and poison lords. You'll know whether you've been poisoned or not once you get out."

Xiao Yan widened his eyes in shock. He actually knew the true identities of himself and Chi Feiwan.

Emperor Meiji chuckled confidently, looked at him and said, "I will let you go. You can investigate whether it is true or not yourself. The final result will be that you will come back to cooperate with me."

Xiao Yan lowered his head, blocking his eyes from seeing everything.

"I suppose you won't refuse?"

"Let me out."

"Of course." Having said this, Emperor Meiji had already opened the door.

Xiao Yan walked out, his old eyes gleaming with brilliance, his fingers hidden in his sleeves making it impossible to see their depth.

"Aren't you afraid that I will poison you to death?"

Emperor Meiji smiled fearlessly, "Then you really can't save the Regent Princess."

Xiao Yan snorted coldly. Don't let him know who poisoned him, otherwise he will make sure that person is killed to pieces.

There were undercurrents in Jingzhao, and the journey to the border was not peaceful either.

The carriage was speeding along the pipeline, and Wen Zhu suddenly lifted the curtain and walked in.

"Master! Something's happening."

Lu Qingchen, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, picked up the paper in front of him, and began to read it at a glance.

The indifference on his face gradually turned tense. He slammed his palm on the table angrily and shouted, "He's not dead yet."

Wen Zhu asked in a low voice: "Master, this person showed up with such fanfare, I'm afraid there will be trouble again, why don't you let me go and take him away..."

He gestured at his neck, and the meaning was self-evident.

Lu Qingchen shook his head in denial, "That man's martial arts skills are incredibly high, I'm afraid you're no match for him."

Wen Zhu pursed her lips tightly, waiting for his instructions.

He tapped his fingers lightly on the table. "One month. During this time, keep a close eye on him. Notify local authorities of his whereabouts. Also, go to Yunyin Pavilion and issue a bounty. We absolutely cannot allow him to continue killing people."

He estimated that a month would be enough to deal with the border issues, and then he would take charge.

Wen Zhu's eyes lit up when he heard this. This method was very good. It didn't make sense that the government would have to work so hard to capture the wanted criminals while the government only enjoyed the benefits.

"Okay, go and arrange it as soon as possible."

"Then you yourself...?"

"I went there on my own."

Wen Zhu nodded, got out of the carriage, mounted a horse and galloped away.

Lu Qingchen took a deep breath, his eyes narrowed with a cold glint, and he muttered to himself, "It was my fault back then. This time, I must sacrifice your life to the heavens."

-------------------------------------------------- ----

Time passed, and Qin Miaoxi had already stayed in the palace for more than ten days. Every day was filled with repetitive and mechanical tasks, and she lived a very... comfortable life.

Isn't that what comfort is all about? Besides the necessities, she also brought along various medical tomes, coroner's notes, herbal encyclopedias, and so on, all specially sourced from Shuxiang Pavilion...

In her own words, when she finally has some free time, she must use it! She is usually busy making money, so how can she have time to continue her studies?

The opportunity will never come again, so she must seize it.

Not only did she read it herself, she also took the trouble to make records, and counted down all the things that the government office would use. When she returned, she would naturally study them all in depth.

If Liang Hongkai saw her state at this moment, he would only say one thing: Roll up! Who can roll better than you?

"Is Lord Xuanwu here?"

A shout came from outside the forest. Qin Miaoxi looked out from the sea of ​​books, put on her mask and walked out, only to see Huang Bang standing outside the forest.

"Is there something wrong with His Majesty?"

Only when the emperor has an order will he send someone to look for her.

Huang Bang hesitated and said, "No, I want to look for you, sir."

Qin Miaoxi didn't even give him a glance and turned away.

"Wait! I have something important to tell you, sir. It's about the young marquis."

Qin Miaoxi subconsciously stopped and said coldly: "Speak!"

"Marquis Xuanping was unfaithful to you. He kept a mistress outside." Huang Bang's face was filled with indignation. "Sir, you are of such status, how could you be insulted by him like this? You should divorce him. He is not worthy of you."

Qin Miaoxi stood still, and after a while, she revealed a half-smile, "He's not worthy of me, but you are?"

Huang Bang's face turned pale instantly. "Sir, I... I truly love you. If I could marry you, I would be willing to give up ten years of my life."

Qin Miaoxi walked forward step by step, and suddenly pinched the other person's chin with her hand.

"You want to marry me in exchange for the antidote to the poison in you. Commander Huang, do you really think I'm a three-year-old?"

"NO, I have not."

slap~

A bright red palm print was imprinted on his face. Qin Miaoxi warned him coldly, "If you stretch your hand too far, it should be chopped off, otherwise..."

Instantly, a thunderous aura pressed down on him. Huang Bang's legs softened and he knelt on the ground. "I dare not."

Unfortunately, it was too late. The next second, he felt a heart-wrenching pain in his heart. He curled up on the ground in agony, cold sweat flowing down his forehead into his eyes.

"Sir, I was wrong, please forgive...me..."

Qin Miaoxi turned around and left without hesitation. Not only did he say those half-truths in front of Lu Qingchen, but he even dared to sow discord in front of her. Who gave him the courage?

As soon as she returned to the forest and sat down, Qin Miaoxi received a secret letter from Zi Yan.

The moment she finished reading the letter, she felt cold from head to toe. She took out the sachet she was wearing from her bosom and remained speechless for a long time.

When she looked up again, her expression was as cold as a pond. A tiny insect was released and disappeared into the bamboo forest in the blink of an eye.
