"So, why did you poison Cai Xing?"
Bai Yanqing didn't really want to watch the recognition scene between Ling Yu and Mrs. Qingluan. She just wanted to know why Lingyu cast Tongxin Gu on Cai Xing!
The question that Bai Yanqing is puzzling over is not only what she wants to know, but also what Cai Xing wants to know! For what purpose would the young Ling Yu take action against the equally young Caixing! There can be no deep hatred among children!
Ling Yu's guilty eyes swept across Cai Xing's pretty cheeks. Then, he took a deep breath, then slowly closed his eyes, and told the whole story!
"Actually... I didn't know why at the time! It's just that my aunt asked me to do it, so I did it! This matter has been weighing on my heart for many years! I can hardly breathe because of the pressure! From what I know, You have to start looking for the real culprit who caused the poison. I know that this day will come sooner or later!"
Ling Yu slowly opened his eyes, as if he couldn't face Cai Xing. He lowered his head. No one could see clearly what the expression was on his face at this time!
Bai Yanqing didn't know whether to believe Ling Yu's words or not! However, when she saw that Ling Yu could not face Cai Xing because of self-blame, Bai Yanqing was suddenly willing to believe him! After all, when he first gave Cai Xing red bean cake, Ling Yu himself was still a child who didn't know much about the world! How could he know that his small move at that time would lead to this situation?
"I trust you!"
Bai Yanqing glanced at Cai Xing, and then said loudly.
In the huge tea shop, I could only hear Bai Yanqing's words "I believe in you"!
Ling Yu was shocked. Obviously, he didn't expect Bai Yanqing to say that! He raised his head suddenly and looked at Bai Yanqing with complex eyes, his face full of disbelief!
Caixing also raised his head and looked at Bai Yanqing with tears in his eyes! At this moment, she felt like there was a beam of light on Bai Yanqing! Instantly illuminate her and guide her out of the fog!
"Caixing, I believe in Lingyu! I believe in him and I have no intention of harming you!"
Bai Yanqing looked at Cai Xing and said firmly.
They have known each other for so many years, Bai Yanqing believes that Ling Yu has no harmful intentions! Although he usually has a cooler temperament and is taciturn, he always takes good care of Cai Xing and takes great care of him. Anyone with eyes can see all of this!
"Sister, I also believe that Ling Yu will not harm me intentionally!"
At that time, Cai Xing wiped away his tears and said in the same firm tone.
Ling Yu looked at Cai Xing with a complicated expression: That's great, Cai Xing is willing to believe in him!
"Then... what about the poison on the body of the Third Highness? Who poisoned it? I believe that Ling Yu is not that powerful, and his hands are not long enough to reach the palace of Chen Kingdom!"
Bai Yanqing changed the subject and turned her attention to Yun Ji.
Indeed, the poison on Cai Xing's body can be identified as being from Ling Yuxia. Who was responsible for the poison on Yun Ji's body?
What's more, Ling Yu was still young at the time, and there was no way he could have gone to the palace of Chen State to poison Yun Ji on his own! So, the problem is back to the beginning! Who is this person who is so powerful? Not only did he get the Tongxin Gu, but he also brought this Gu into the palace of the Chen Kingdom and cast it on the majestic prince of the Chen Kingdom!
"Mrs. Qingluan, do you still remember your sister Hongluan?"
Bai Yanqing suddenly spoke and asked Mrs. Qingluan.
After thinking for a moment, Mrs. Qingluan said, "I can't remember clearly, let alone...it's been more than ten years, and I don't know if her appearance has changed now!"
What Mrs. Qingluan said was right, more than ten years have passed, and now, no one can tell whether Hongluan's appearance has changed!
"It's okay. As long as you still remember what she looked like before!"
After Bai Yanqing said that, he found pen, ink and paper. Then, based on Mrs. Qingluan’s description, I drew the appearance of Hongluan!
"Hong Luan and Madam, you are indeed somewhat similar!"
Bai Yanqing
He blew on the ink stains on the paper that were not completely dry and said with a smile.
Indeed, according to Mrs. Qingluan's description of Hongluan, it is indeed three to four points like Mrs. Qingluan herself!
The woman in the painting has almond eyes and red lips, and a black hair draped over her shoulders. She looks both gentle and charming. It's just that pair of sword-shaped eyebrows that make people feel unclear and powerful!
"Hong Luan has been very strong-tempered since she was a child! She is more successful than me!"
Mrs. Qingluan looked at the person in the painting with deep envy in her eyes!
Although Mrs. Qingluan and her younger sister Hongluan serve together by Xin Wanning's side, Hongluan is smart and tough-tempered. He handles things neatly and meticulously, which earns Xin Wanning's respect! Chinese website
"Everyone has their own strengths! Mrs. Qingluan has a gentle temperament, so she is a good choice for a wife!"
It's a pity that I met an unkind person!
Bai Yanqing did not say this directly in front of Mrs. Qingluan and Chu Aotian.
"Your Highnesses, take a look, does the woman in this painting look familiar to you?"
Bai Yanqing raised the portrait in her hand and let the Yunqi brothers look at it.
Yun Qi and Yun Ji have lived in the palace for so many years. Is there any woman in the harem that they have not seen before?
Yunqi took the painting, frowned and looked at it for a long time without saying a word. Yun Ji, on the other hand, eagerly grabbed the painting, commented on it carefully, and finally came to the conclusion: I have never seen it before!
"Have you really never seen it before?"
Seeing that Yun Qi had not said a word for a long time, Bai Yanqing couldn't help but asked out of curiosity.
"I've never seen it before!"
Yun Ji smacked his lips and shook his head.
"Your Highness, does it look familiar to you?"
When Bai Yanqing saw that Yun Qi remained silent, she immediately smiled. She reached out and took the portrait over, looked at it several times carefully, and immediately she had the answer in her heart!
"It looks familiar! But...I can confirm that this appearance does not exist in the palace!"
Yunqi looked at the portrait and felt both familiar and unfamiliar. The only thing he was sure of was that there was indeed no one with the same appearance as the woman in the painting in the palace.
"Mrs. Qingluan, may I ask... is your sister Hongluan also proficient in the art of disguise?"
Bai Yanqing suddenly spoke and asked Mrs. Qingluan about the art of disguise.
Mrs. Qingluan was stunned, as if she had remembered something. She looked at Bai Yanqing in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief!
"you mean……"
"Yes, what I mean is that your sister Hong Luan may have...disguised herself and hid in the palace of Chen Kingdom!"
Bai Yanqing's words instantly caught everyone off guard!
If Hong Luan entered the palace in disguise, as Bai Yanqing said, then... what was her purpose? How did she choose Yun Ji among the many princes and give him the concentric poison?
For a moment, no one in the hall said a word!
A female official from the Xingyue Kingdom ran into the palace of the Chen Kingdom. In a big way, this incident was intended to provoke a war between the two countries! To put it mildly, it was because the guards in the palace were so careless that they let a stranger into the palace! And this person may still threaten the lives of the nobles in the palace at any time!
"I believe Hong Luan doesn't want to harm anyone!"
Seeing that everyone was silent, Mrs. Qingluan was a little flustered. She was convinced that her sister would not be such a big woman who did such evil!
"Then how do you explain that she poisoned the Third Prince?"
Bai Yanqing glanced at Mrs. Qingluan lightly and replied calmly.
Hearing this, Mrs. Qingluan was stunned. Indeed, she could not explain clearly why Hongluan poisoned the third prince of the Chen Kingdom!
Maybe only by finding Hong Luan himself can we figure this out, right? !
But right now, with so many of them in the Star-Moon Kingdom, where can they go back to the Chen Kingdom Palace to investigate Hong Luan?
「
Disguise can only change a person's external appearance, but it cannot change a person's bones. "
Just when everyone was at a loss what to do, Bai Yanqing suddenly spoke softly and said this.
Bone phase?
Indeed, Bai Yanqing was right. The disguise technique only changes the appearance in the eyes of others, but it cannot change the inner appearance of a person.
"Your Highnesses, take a closer look at the nose, ears, eyes, and cheekbones of the person in this painting. Do they look very much like a person you are very familiar with!"
Bai Yanqing pointed at the portrait cautiously, hoping to get confirmation from the Yunqi brothers.
Yun Ji looked at the portrait over and over again, but he couldn't figure out who the woman in the painting looked like! Yun Qi, on the other hand, said nothing, as if he had thought of something!
"Okay, stop being so secretive and just tell us!"
Yun Ji became impatient, and he couldn't help shouting at Bai Yanqing.
"Your Highness, let's... express our guesses together, okay?"
Bai Yanqing ignored Yun Qi, only looked at Yun Qi with a smile and said to him.
Yunqi nodded as a response.
"Concubine Xian!"
"Concubine Xian!"
Yun Qi and Bai Yanqing spoke at the same time, and they both expressed their guesses tacitly.
"Concubine Xian?! That's impossible! She has no grievances against me, so why would she want to harm me? If she really wanted to harm someone, she could have harmed the second prince of the Gao family. She and Empress Gao are the ones who can't be dealt with! "
Yun Ji jumped up anxiously! He refused to believe that Concubine Xian would want to harm him! After all, he had no contact with Concubine Xian on weekdays, and the fifth prince did not have much trouble with Concubine Xian. Why did Concubine Xian not choose Gao's son to cause harm to her, but to herself?
"It's hard to judge whether Concubine Xian is Hongluan or not! Just one portrait can't explain anything. And... Judging from Mrs. Qingluan's words, I think this Mrs. Hongluan may not be... She wants to harm Cai Xing and His Highness the Third Prince! But...as for what other purposes she has, we don’t know!"
Bai Yanqing'e frowned slightly, looked at Yun Ji who was rubbing his hands and feet, and spoke unhurriedly.
Not to mention whether Concubine Xian is Hongluan or not, just from the days when Bai Yanqing entered the palace, it is not difficult for her to see that Concubine Xian is not the kind of person who likes to deliberately cause disputes in the palace. Although Concubine Xian had nothing to do with Mrs. Gao, every time the two of them had a dispute, it was mostly Empress Gao who started it. Concubine Xian never provoked her!
Then again, Concubine Xian has never felt sorry for brothers Yunqi and Yunji! She had even helped Yun Qi and Bai Yanqing before. From this point of view, Bai Yanqing felt that Concubine Xian was not the eldest daughter who did the most evil!
"Miss Bai, I suddenly remembered what Aunt An said when she called us together before we left!"
Yuan Li, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke. Her words were true, and she hit the point right away! This matter has always been a point of confusion for Bai Yanqing!
Why would Aunt An know that Yun Ji had the Tongxin Gu? Why would Aunt An know that Yun Ji was engaged to the emperor of Xingyue Kingdom?
Aunt An, who is she?
"Your Highness, I don't understand something!"
Bai Yanqing suddenly looked serious, and she asked Yunqi.
Yunqi nodded and motioned for her to say.
"I was in the palace before... I remember one time, you accidentally mentioned to me that you and Aunt An are old acquaintances! I want to know, what is Aunt An's identity? Who... is she?"
Bai Yanqing suddenly asked Yun Qi about something that Yun Qi didn't want to talk about.
Yun Qi frowned and did not answer Bai Yanqing's question. Obviously, this time, Yunqi chose silence again!
