Huanzhu Time Travel: Yan Luo's Unbreakable Love in the Yong Dynasty

Chapter 201 Little Swallow and Hongli: The Conspiracy Exposed, the Storm Temporarily Subsides

Little Swallow, carrying the tonic, stormed angrily straight to the Cold Palace.

Upon seeing Consort Na, Xiao Yanzi threw the tonic on the ground and scolded, "Consort Na, how cruel you are! You actually tried to poison Little Swallow!"

Consort Na's expression changed, but she still tried to remain calm: "Little Swallow, don't make false accusations! How could I possibly poison Little Swallow while I'm in this cold palace?"

Little Swallow sneered: "Hmph! You still dare to argue? This tonic was sent by Rong Momo through a eunuch. You still dare to say you didn't know about it?"

The concubine looked at Rong Mama, who quickly knelt down: "Your Highness, this old servant is innocent! Someone must be framing this old servant, this old servant has no such intention!"

Little Swallow trembled with anger: "You still dare to be stubborn! Su Peisheng, go and fetch Physician Liu and have him examine this tonic."

Su Peisheng accepted the order and left.

After Lin Yuxuan followed the two palace maids, he discovered that they were meeting with a nanny in the Cold Palace. He overheard them talking about the concubine's conspiracy and rushed over to tell Xiao Yanzi.

When Lin Yuxuan arrived, he overheard Xiao Yanzi's confrontation with Consort Na. He shouted, "Consort Na, stop struggling! I have found out your spies in the palace. Your conspiracy with Rong Mama will not succeed!"

When the concubine realized that her scheme had been exposed, she collapsed to the ground, but there was still a trace of resentment in her eyes.

Soon after, Physician Liu arrived. After examining the tonic, he said, "Your Majesty, this tonic has indeed been laced with poison. If the princess takes it, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Little Swallow said to Su Peisheng, "Eunuch Su, you should go and report to the Emperor immediately so that he can make a decision."

Upon learning of this, Hongli rushed to the Cold Palace. Looking at Consort Na and Rong Mama, his eyes were filled with anger: "Consort Na, I only banished you to the Cold Palace out of consideration for our past relationship. Yet you show no remorse and dare to plot against the princess. Do you know your crime?"

The concubine cried and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I was confused for a moment. Please have mercy, Your Majesty!"

Hongli frowned: "I will not forgive you easily, but considering the merits of your family, I will spare your life for now. You can reflect on your actions in the Cold Palace! Rong Momo, your crimes are heinous. Drag her away and give her a hundred lashes, then banish her from the palace!"

Rong Momo turned pale with fright and kept begging for mercy, but she was still dragged away.

Hongzhou returned to the capital with the reclusive master and breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that Xiaoyanzi had exposed the matter.

When Hongzhou entered the palace and saw Hongli and Xiaoyanzi, he said, "Brother, it's fortunate that Xiaoyanzi is clever and discovered the conspiracy in time, otherwise Xiaoyanzi would have been in danger."

Hongli nodded: "Thanks to everyone this time, that mysterious force has not yet been eradicated, and we still cannot let our guard down."

Xiao Yanzi said, "Your Majesty, Prince Hongzhou, although that concubine has been punished, she has been cultivating her influence in the palace for many years. It is hard to guarantee that others will not be bewitched by her. We must strengthen our defenses."

Hongzhou said, "Little Swallow is right. The senior I brought is highly skilled in martial arts. He can protect Little Swallow in the palace, just in case."

The reclusive master clasped his hands in a salute and said, "I am willing to serve the Emperor and the Princess."

Lin Yuhang also entered the palace and said, "Your Majesty, when I was investigating the matter of Consort Na, I discovered that she also had dealings with some people from the martial arts world, and it seems that she is related to that mysterious force."

Hongli's eyes narrowed: "It seems that the conspiracy behind this is becoming more and more complicated. I must find out the inside accomplice in the court as soon as possible and wipe out the Jianghu forces in one fell swoop."

At Little Swallow's home, Little Swallow woke up and saw everyone there. She asked curiously, "Sister, what happened? Why is everyone so serious?"

Little Swallow smiled and said, "Little Swallow, it's alright. Your big sister is here and won't let anyone hurt you."

The palace has temporarily returned to peace, but the mysterious force is still stirring in the shadows, and various factions are secretly preparing. What kind of turbulent changes will the palace face in the future? What deeper secrets are hidden behind the mysterious murals of the Shadow Pavilion? End of this chapter. Stay tuned for the next chapter.
