Emperor Wu Shun said expressionlessly: "Do you mean to let Shang Ruyan marry the fourth child?"
The emperor's voice was calm and waveless.
Feng Lilan only felt a chill rising up her back.
She quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at Emperor Wu Shun.
Being watched by Emperor Wu Shun, she always felt as if her plan with Shang Ruyan was seen through by Emperor Wu Shun.
Pursing her lips, Feng Lilan hesitated and said, "I just think that Shang Ruyan knows medical skills, and the fourth prince is in a special situation..."
At the end, her voice became quieter.
A layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead unconsciously.
Emperor Wu Shun looked at her for a moment: "Concubine Lan, what are your conditions?"
Feng Lilan's heart suddenly rose to her throat.
She knew that her little thoughts could not be hidden from the emperor, so she knelt on the ground and said, "I have nothing else to ask for. I just ask that your majesty will stop pursuing my brother's fault."
Emperor Wu Shun withdrew his gaze, pulled out the memorial at the bottom, and threw it in front of Feng Lilan, "Let's take a look."
Feng Lilan's delicate body trembled a little: "I...I don't dare to look at you."
"I let you see it."
Feng Lilan couldn't figure out what Emperor Wu Shun was thinking, so she stretched out her hand tremblingly and opened the memorial in front of her.
After seeing the content clearly, she rolled her eyes and almost fainted.
"Your Majesty, this is all a false accusation!"
"My concubine is a kind-hearted brother, and there is no way he would do such a thing to harm a common girl! I beg your majesty to see clearly!"
Emperor Wu Shun leaned back in his chair and looked at Feng Lilan with a half-smile, "Won't your conscience hurt after Concubine Lan said this?"
Feng Lilan's face suddenly turned pale: "Your Majesty..."
As soon as the words left his mouth, he was interrupted by Emperor Wu Shun, "Okay, you don't know the virtues of your own brother."
"The people he killed were all maids who sold themselves to your Feng Mansion. I can't interfere."
"What is the truth about this matter? I will thoroughly investigate the person who framed the third daughter-in-law."
"You go back first, and take this time to reflect in your own palace."
Feng Lilan swayed, raised her eyes to look at Emperor Wu Shun, and spoke without giving up, "Your Majesty, that Shang Ruyan..."
Before he finished speaking, he swallowed the rest of the words unconsciously when he saw the deep and indifferent eyes of the God King.
She bit her lower lip, covered her eyes and said unwillingly, "I leave you."
...
The next day.
When Su Ruotang woke up, she felt that her whole body was sore and weak.
A man's clear and bewitching voice came from above his head: "Is there anything else that makes you uncomfortable?"
His slender fingers gently massaged her waist.
Su Ruotang closed her eyes and buried her face in his neck, "Is there no news about the three-flavored herb yet?"
Mo Rongyan's expression remained unchanged: "Well, not yet."
Su Ruotang frowned slightly.
It seemed like she had to go to Sheng Han's place.
Seeing her frown, Mo Rongyan lowered his tone and changed the subject, "Xiao Haitang, Feng Xiaoting's life has been saved, but if you feel uncomfortable, I will kill him."
The little Haitang he held in his heart would never allow him to suffer any injustice.
Su Ruotang shook his head: "Feng Jian is his only son, and he also has the so-called invitation letter written by me. Killing him will only make people think that I have a guilty conscience."
After she finished speaking, she reached out and held Mo Ronyan's face, looking at him seriously, "Is there really no news?"
Mo Ronyan's expression remained unchanged: "No."
Anxiety flashed in Su Ruotang's eyes: "With the capabilities of the Zilin Guards and the Royal Secret Guards, they haven't been able to find anything after searching for so long. It shouldn't be..."
"Does it mean that these three herbs don't exist at all? Or are they not called by this name?"
Suddenly, she didn't know what she thought of, and her eyes lit up, "Where is my brother?"
The color of Mo Ronyan's eyes changed, and he lowered his eyes and rubbed the corners of her lips, "How skilled are you in shouting?"
Su Ruotang raised the corners of her lips: "Are you jealous?"
Mo Ronyan looked at her bright smile and flicked her smooth forehead with his fingers, "If you're not jealous, I'll eat you..."
When Su Ruotang woke up again, it was already noon.
There was no one around him.
She stared angrily at the top of the bed.
I want to beat the bed, but my hands hurt.
I want to curse, my throat hurts.
After staring at the top of the bed in a daze, Su Ruotang called Qingtuan in to freshen herself up.
After asking Shen Shi, he learned that Mu Chen had gone out, so he went straight to the bottom of the cliff where Sheng Han lived outside the city.
As soon as they left the imperial city, Su Ruotang saw Sheng Han sitting in the pergola in front, drinking tea.
Sheng Han seemed to have expected that Su Ruotang would come to him.
Seeing her, he raised the tea bowl in his hand without any surprise, "This bowl of tea tastes good. Come sit down and have a drink."
At this time, there was no one else in the pavilion except the old man making tea.
Su Ruotang got off the carriage with her skirt, sat on a rough bench, and went straight to the topic, "Do you know the whereabouts of Linglong Dan, Zhiyang Grass and Bi Touxui?"
Sheng Han raised his head and drank all the tea in the bowl, put down the tea bowl, and asked without answering, "If taking these three herbs will kill you, will you still take them?"
Su Ruotang nodded without hesitation.
Sheng Han lowered his eyes and looked at the porcelain bowl on the table with complicated eyes.
After a moment, he sighed and said, "Mo Ronyan didn't tell you?"
Su Ruotang asked in confusion: "What did you say?"
Sheng Han glanced at her steadily: "It's nothing, it's just that I didn't expect that the descendants of the Mu family would recognize you as my sister."
Back then, the Mu family was a very prosperous family.
He was accustomed to poisoning at a young age and went to challenge the Mu family with a high heart and arrogance.
But he almost died from the Mu family's Gu insects.
Later, the medicinal puppet was studied to resist the Mu family's Gu insects.
But he didn't expect that in just a hundred years, that extremely prosperous family would decline to only one bloodline.
Su Ruotang looked at Sheng Han curiously: "Sheng Han, who are you?"
Sheng Han picked up the teapot and poured another bowl of tea.
He lowered his eyes and looked at the ripples of tea in the bowl, and smiled softly, "I'm just a homeless person."
Su Ruotang frowned slightly: "Do you know Mu Chen?"
Sheng Han shook his head: "I don't know you, but if Mu Chen recognizes you as his sister, the Xia family may regard you as their enemy."
Su Ruotang took a sip of the big bowl of tea nonchalantly: "The three brothers of the Su family are disciples of the Xia family and have been my enemies for a long time."
Sheng Han was not surprised at all: "The three brothers of the Su family are really three white-eyed wolves."
I'm totally sorry for Ran'er's upbringing and teaching for so many years.
He held his chin with one hand and looked at Su Ruotang with bright eyes, "How about I poison the three of them to death to avenge you?"
Su Ruotang put down the tea bowl and rolled his eyes, "Don't kill at every turn, we need to be gentle."
Sheng Han looked at her in surprise: "Are you so kind-hearted?"
Su Ruotang raised the corners of her lips, her smile not reaching her eyes, "There is a saying - murder kills the heart."
Sheng Han's eyes moved and he instantly understood what she meant, "Keep them, don't forgive them, let them suffer psychological torture, clever move!"
Su Ruotang: "......"
She meant to let the three brothers of the Su family watch their beloved sister Su Muyao die in front of their eyes.
She pursed her lips, not bothering to correct Sheng Han's thoughts, and returned to the topic, "Where can I find the three herbs?"
