Chapter 192 Sweat
The mockery on Zhao Ma's face deepened. "You may not know yet, but the royal family has many rules, and it is difficult to explain them all at once. The Queen Mother asked me to stay with you for one night, and then let me go after you are familiar with it."
Mo Ziyu's face darkened. She didn't understand what the old woman was up to. Although she was reluctant to stay, she had no choice but to say, "Okay, Xueying, take my mother back to rest."
"Yes!" Xueying nodded and led the way.
The mother was hurt that she had no relatives, but she had long been accustomed to being alone, and it was enough for her to go alone.
After dinner, Xueying handed over a bowl of medicine soup: "Miss, it's time to take medicine."
"Yeah." She had no expression on her face and no one knew what she was thinking.
"Master, are you okay?"
"I..." He was about to answer, but suddenly he felt a tingling pain, a sweetness in his throat, and a feeling of nausea came over him.
Coincidentally, Xi Qiu also walked over from outside. Seeing this scene, he said happily: "Miss, are you really going to vomit? Could it be..."
Before he could finish his words, Mo Ziyu vomited with a "pu" sound.
When he saw the pool of black blood, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he hurried over, "Master, what happened to you? Master?"
"Shut up!" Mo Ziyu was surprised and growled.
Xueying, who was standing by, had already been frightened to death. She fell to her knees and cried, "Master, what is going on? Why did he do this?"
She glared at the two girls fiercely, and they immediately shut up and just looked at her anxiously.
Mo Ziyu wiped the blood from her lips. She didn't understand what happened. She felt something was strange from the beginning, but she trusted Liu Min and didn't think much about it. It was only after taking it for several days that she felt a little uncomfortable today. Unexpectedly, a mouthful of black blood spurted out.
"Xueying, do you have the prescription that Doctor Liu gave you?" Bai Zhi asked.
Xueying nodded, then took out a piece of paper from her bosom: "I carry it with me."
Bai Zhi picked up the paper and glanced at it. There were some common detoxification drugs and some tonic drugs in it, but there was one that she was not familiar with. Even an experienced Chinese medicine practitioner could not recognize every one of them. It was normal for him not to recognize some herbs, but now it seemed that this was not the case.
"Did anyone approach while refining?"
"My Lord, I have been watching here, and no one has entered." Xue Ying was so scared that he was shaking all over, and said in a trembling voice: "Master, I am absolutely loyal to you, please trust me!"
Xue Ying lay on the ground, motionless. Mo Ziyu understood her intention: "I didn't say anything, but no one is allowed to tell anyone about this matter. Do you understand?"
"how about you?"
"Don't tell the prince, I know what to do, understand?"
The two of them nodded repeatedly, but still showed no intention of getting up.
"Why don't you go and clean up the blood on the ground."
"Oh, yes!" the two men responded and turned away.
Mo Ziyu carefully checked it again, and then put her fingers on her wrist. This was an obvious poison. She was startled and quickly took off the shirt on her left hand to reveal the wound on it. The burn marks were still there, but the poison in her body was really removed. But where did the poison in her body come from?
His mind went blank. What went wrong? When was he poisoned? Fortunately, this was a slow-acting poison. After she sprayed out the black blood, she felt much better. She got on the bed again, closed her eyes and thought back to the past few days.
"Sister Xueying, what should we do now? What happened to our master? What happened to you? Tell me."
Xue Ying's eyes turned red: "Xi Qiu, I didn't do anything. I just followed the prescription given by Imperial Doctor Liu. You and I both know that I would never dare to do anything bad to you."
"Do you want me to tell the prince?" Xi Qiu glanced inside the palace and said timidly.
"You stay here and look after the young lady. I will go and invite the prince." Xue Ying wiped away her tears, turned around and was about to leave.
Mo Ziyu's cold voice came from inside: "If anyone dares to leave, don't even think about coming to find me again, you'll never see me again!"
"Master!" a voice came from outside.
"Don't worry, you two wait outside and don't let anyone in!"
"Yes!"
It was already late at night. Xiao Muchen put away the golden brocade, took a look at the carefully selected auspicious days, frowned slightly, and turned away.
In the Frost Palace, the lights were on. Why wasn't she asleep yet? His first reaction was anger, and he strode over.
Xueying and Xiqiu were still waiting outside, not daring to blink. When Xiao Muchen came in, she wanted to stop him, but was pulled back by Xiqiu. The two looked at each other and whispered, "Prince!"
Xiao Muchen glanced at the two of them with a strange expression, pursed his lips, and without saying much, he pushed open the door and walked in.
Mo Ziyu was lying inside, breathing evenly. It was obvious that she had fallen asleep.
He tiptoed towards the big bed and stopped suddenly when passing by a place. He glanced at the ground from the corner of his eye and saw that two maids had already cleaned up the things on the ground. After all, Prince Xiao had fought on the battlefield and was very sensitive to the smell of blood.
He carefully looked around and made sure there was nothing unusual before shifting his gaze to the still sleeping figure.
When he got closer, he noticed that there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.
Mo Ziyu didn't sleep very well that night. She kept recalling how she was poisoned, and fell asleep unconsciously. Then she had some very strange dreams, which were fragmented and each one was so clear that she felt like she was there.
At first, she could vaguely feel a person swaying in front of her eyes, as if feeding her something, which reminded her of the prescription written by Doctor Liu.
For several consecutive times, the screen was dark, and only that person's voice sounded familiar: "Yu'er is also a member of our Mo family, why don't you let her live!"
This was a very familiar voice. Now it sounded more like a person. In her dream, she turned her head and saw that it was Mo Ziyu, the brother she mentioned. Wasn't he talking about her? Or did the original owner of this body let someone else spare him?
Before he could get close, he felt a pain in his head, and then he saw another picture. This scene seemed familiar, just like when she first came here, Xiao Baoxuan was still looking at her with a condescending look.
"Don't, don't, don't, don't—"
That's what she said? Could it be the original Mo Ziyu? Ask Xiao Baoxuan for help? Her voice was weak and terrified.
"Don't be hypocritical in front of me." Xiao Baoxuan sneered: "Do you think I will trust you and let you go? You can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me!"
