"Then what?"
Although Mu Nanxi's voice was so calm, the disgust and contempt on her face continued to intensify.
Chu Ning sighed and continued: "Two months have passed. I originally thought of going to the capital to look for my brother, but unexpectedly I found out that I was pregnant. In order to avoid injuring myself during the long journey, I could only write a letter to drag you down. My father went to the capital to meet his brother."
"But after your father left, there was no news for eight months. The last time I heard about your father was from an outsider. He reported your father's death and asked us to collect the body."
"Your grandmother was worried about my health and said she would take him home, but there was no news after she left."
Mu Nanxi seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world and snorted disdainfully.
She asked with a slight rebuke in her tone: "So, mother, you just stand on your own laurels and never leave Tongmu Village?"
Chu Ning covered her mouth, tears falling from the corners of her eyes. She tried her best to suppress her voice, but the cry was still heartbreaking. "I didn't expect! I didn't expect that they all lied to me!"
Mu Nanxi looked at Chu Ning, feeling a pain in her heart.
She stretched out her hand, gently stroked Chu Ning's wrinkled hands from starching clothes all the time, and said softly: "Mother, don't be too sad, the past has passed."
Chu Ning raised her head, her eyes filled with tears, and she asked: "Sister Xi, can you blame your mother? It was your mother who made you suffer so much, and in the end you were forced to marry someone you didn't love. How miserable A life of hardship!”
Mu Nanxi felt sour in her heart, "Mother, you don't have to blame yourself. Your Majesty treats me with respect and respect as a guest. I will make peace with him when the situation is stable. My brother must have been thinking about my mother so far. When I go home with my mother in the future, we will Family reunion!”
"Mom, do you still remember the way home?"
"Princess! Auntie! Try this bowl of rock sugar, ginseng, white fungus, and bird's nest porridge!" Shen Yi rushed into Shaoyunxuan with a large porcelain pot and two small bowls on a wooden tray.
Chu Ning was about to say something, but was interrupted by Shen Yi who was shouting outside.
Shen Yi put the things on the table, and the moment he opened the lid, the sweet and delicious aroma of bird's nest porridge came out.
"I took the best ginseng and bird's nest from the prince's warehouse, and used the freshest white fungus picked from the mountain this morning. I have worked hard!"
Shen Yi smiled and served a bowl to the elder first.
"Auntie, try it quickly. How does it taste?"
Chu Ning didn't want to be disrespectful to others, so she picked up the bowl and took a sip. The sweet taste made her feel better.
"Does it taste good?" Shen Yi asked nervously.
"Delicious!" Chu Ning nodded and smiled.
After a busy day, Mu Nanxi was exhausted from hunger and filled a bowl for herself.
Before the bird's nest porridge was in his mouth, Mu Nanxi's expression became solemn and he hurriedly snatched the bowl from Chu Ning's hand.
"Since mother likes it, I will fill more for mother."
The corners of Mu Nanxi's mouth curved slightly, as if she was smiling: "Linglong, it's windy today, please go and close the doors and windows."
After the doors and windows were closed, Mu Nanxi stared at Shen Yi and said with a wary expression: "Besides ginseng, bird's nest, and white fungus, what else did you put in this soup?"
Shen Yi didn't know why: "Bingtang!"
Before he finished speaking, he immediately noticed what Mu Nanxi had just done and the problem in his words. He quickly took a spoonful and put it under his nose to smell it carefully, and then took out the silver needle to test the poison.
Shen Yi opened his eyes suddenly and exclaimed in a low voice: "Poison!"
Mu Nanxi raised her eyebrows and whispered, "Don't say anything!"
She took out the needle pack in her arms and gave Chu Ning a shot.
"Sister Xi, is there poison in this?" Chu Ning pulled Mu Nanxi nervously, "Did you drink just now? Do you feel any discomfort?"
Mu Nanxi felt sour in her heart.
It was obvious that her mother drank the most, but she came to care about her immediately.
She gently stroked Chu Ning's back and said softly: "Mom, don't be afraid. I didn't drink just now. It's okay."
Mu Nanxi looked at Shen Yi and asked, "Did you cook this bird's nest porridge yourself?"
"Grandma Miao in the kitchen helped me light the fire. I prepared the ingredients myself. I only asked a female servant to watch the fire for me."
"Messenger? What's your name?"
"I don't know, he's just a good-looking guy." Shen Yi thought of something else and added, "There's a mole at the corner of his mouth."
Linglong thought for a while and said: "Princess, the female servant who works in the kitchen and has a mole on the corner of her mouth is named Fangyu. She just entered the palace half a month ago."
Mu Nanxi lowered her eyebrows and pondered for a moment, then raised her head and whispered: "Linglong, you pretended to be panicked as soon as you went out, and then said that the princess and the nanny were poisoned, and ordered the servants in the house to go outside the house to invite the doctor, you go and see Keep an eye on Fangyu to see who she wants to tip off."
Linglong retreated in response.
When the servants in the courtyard heard that the princess had been poisoned, they became panicked and ran around like headless flies.
Mu Nanxi changed her subject and said to Shen Yi: "I have already used acupuncture to delay the onset of the poison on my mother. You can take advantage of the chaos and go to the side room to get four parts each of licorice and honey, one liter of rice flour, boil the licorice in five liters of water, and take two liters. "Take it away from the heat, add it to the powder soup, mix well, add white honey and fry again, wait until it is cooked like thin porridge, then let it cool, drink it to detoxify."
Shen Yi frowned slightly and asked: "The licorice drink in "A Thousand Gold Prescriptions"? This book is included in the palace library, how could the princess know about it?"
"Then how did you know?"
"My mother has a copy of this book."
"There are tens of millions of copies in the world, how do you know that you are the only copy of Taihe Villa?" Mu Nanxi's black eyes narrowed slightly, and her eyes became cold. "If you delay it any longer, do you want my mother to die?"
"Ah -" Chu Ning held her stomach in pain, big beads of sweat fell from her forehead, and then she fainted from the pain.
Chu Ning was old, and after a period of hard work, her bones were weak. Even though she was given acupuncture, the poison still spread faster.
"Mother!" Mu Nanxi exclaimed.
When Shen Yi saw this, he didn't dare to delay any longer and immediately left the house.
After Mu Nanxi helped the person onto the bed, he quickly took out the needle bag and inserted the silver needles into several of Chu Ning's acupuncture points. This time, Chu Ning's brows relaxed a little.
Not long after, the young man led the old man back to his house, and also invited back the prince he met on the street.
"princess!?"
Qi Zhiheng just pushed the door open and saw Mu Nanxi sitting there calmly and drinking tea?
He stood in front of the door, recalling that he suddenly heard that the princess was poisoned on the street, and hurried back to the house, even feeling a little worried in his heart.
He felt that he must be so stupid that he was fooled by a dead woman.
"Your Highness!? Why are you here?" Mu Nanxi stood up and walked towards Qi Zhiheng.
But before she even took two steps closer, Qi Zhiheng glanced at her with his cold eyes, then turned around and left neatly.
Mu Nanxi tilted his head and looked in confusion, frowning slightly: "It's inexplicable."
The doctor looked at them with contempt.
You two are flirting and flirting, what are you doing to this old man?
Why should I hire a doctor if I'm not sick? There are still a dozen patients in the hospital waiting for my help!
The doctor cupped his hands and said, "Since the princess is fine, I will leave first."
If the doctor left so quickly, wouldn't he alert the little devils outside?
Mu Nanxi spoke up to stop him: "Wait a moment, doctor. An elder in the family is unwell. I would like to ask you to take a pulse, doctor. Please excuse me."
"It turns out that the boy made a false alarm. It doesn't matter. It's the common people's duty to save people." The doctor saw the bloodless woman on the bed and came forward with a medicine box to check her pulse.
It turned out that he was overthinking it.
The doctor felt Chu Ning's pulse, and carefully checked Chu Ning's pupils and tongue coating. Still afraid to draw a conclusion, he asked: "What did the old lady eat?"
"Poisoned bird's nest porridge."
"Poison!?" The doctor exclaimed.
"Since the princess knew what kind of poison she was poisoned, why didn't she tell the common people earlier? If she was poisoned, the old lady would definitely be hopeless!"
"Poison is very dangerous, and there is a narrow chance of death. It is better to take a detoxification soup first to hang on to your life! Let the old lady prick a few needles, and let the princess talk to the old lady!"
The doctor hurriedly took out a prescription from the medicine box and put it in Mu Nanxi's hand, and then took the needle from the needle bag.
As soon as Mu Nanxi took the prescription, Shen Yi walked in with a bowl of licorice drink on his hind legs.
"The medicine is gone."
Mu Nanxi stuffed the prescription back into the doctor's arms, took the medicine bowl, helped Chu Ning sit up, and fed the licorice drink one spoonful at a time.
The doctor couldn't understand what was going on, and he still held a silver needle in his hand and didn't know what to do.
"Princess, are you sure this recipe can cure the poison in my aunt?" Although there are records in ancient prescriptions, Shen Yi has never verified it.
"Taking this prescription alone cannot completely detoxify, but it can be supplemented with acupuncture to detoxify."
Just as the doctor was about to ask what was going on, he was interrupted by Linglong who suddenly appeared: "Princess! Fangyu took advantage of the chaos and delivered the news through the west door!"
Mu Nanxi's hands didn't stop moving: "Did you find out who the message was given to?"
"The slave kept watching from the dark and followed Fang Yu to the west door from a distance. She looked around and saw no one before opening the door and going out. The slave followed and saw Wang Wu waiting at the tea shop not far away."
"Although the two of them didn't speak, the slave was watching clearly. When they looked at each other, Fangyu nodded three times!"
Mu Nanxi nodded calmly and ordered: "Send the doctor out of the house."
The doctor was full of questions.
The co-author specially called him here today to show him the princess's medical skills, right?
Is it amazing to be able to detoxify from poison? Well, it’s amazing!
But you can’t be so insulting!
"Since the princess has excellent medical skills, why should we let ordinary people make this trip? Please leave." The doctor followed Linglong away angrily.
Everyone in the room retreated, leaving only Shen Yi sitting on the drum pier with a sad face.
"No matter how much you say, Mu Qing is the biological father of the princess, how could he be so vicious?"
Mu Nanxi sneered, his voice extremely low and full of contempt.
She placed the medicine bowl on the wooden stand aside, gently helped Chu Ning lie down, stood up and sat across from Shen Yi.
"Back then, he abandoned his wife and daughter for power. Now we, mother and daughter, have no use value to him. We, mother and daughter, are evidence of his deception. Keeping us will be a disaster after all. How could he not get rid of us? "
"Tiger poison doesn't eat its seeds, so he..."
Mu Nanxi's eyes suddenly froze, and she put her fingers in front of her lips.
"There's someone outside."
