Golden Staff National Master left, and Liu Ruoxi burst into laughter just now. It was obvious that he had been holding back for a long time. ⊙The vertex is small,

Ning Chen had a look of helplessness on her face, this girl.

"Marquis, this Golden Staff National Master looks so silly," Liu Ruoxi said with a smile.

Ning Chen shook his head and said, "It's just that you don't understand him. In fact, he is not stupid at all. He can even be said to be as wise as a fool. He can clearly distinguish when to say what to say and what choices to make. If your Marquis hadn't stayed at the Four Extremes Realm for two years and knew more things that he didn't know, it wouldn't have been that simple to deceive him."

"Marquis is the most powerful," Liu Ruoxi affirmed.

"Okay, you don't need to compliment me anymore." Ning Chen smiled softly and continued, "I want to go to the palace, so bring Chi'er over."

"Yes"

Liu Ruoxi responded softly, then turned and walked towards the backyard.

Not long after, Chi'er was brought over. During the month that little Imperial Prince was in the Hou Mansion, his little face seemed to have gained a little weight.

"Master"

Seeing the person in the hall, Chi'er took two steps at a trot and stepped forward to grab the person's hand. He looked happy and looked much closer than when they first met.

"Let's go, today is your day to return to the palace."

Ning Chen reached out and rubbed little Imperial Prince's head and said softly.

"Yeah" Chi'er nodded vigorously.

Ning Chen led little Imperial Prince away from the Hou Mansion and walked all the way towards the palace.

When Heavenly Edict Hall and Xia Ziyi saw the two coming, they brought little Imperial Prince back to the harem to reunite mother and son. They looked at their friend in front of them and chuckled, "It seems your injury is almost healed."

"Well, by the way, I almost forgot to ask you when things got busy. What did your Miss Luo say? Did you agree?" Ning Chen asked.

"Friends, don't joke around. Miss Luo has helped me save my life, so don't neglect it," Xia Ziyi emphasized solemnly, and then answered the former's question, saying, "As for helping deal with the Four Extremes Realm, Miss Luo didn't make a clear statement, she just said it depends on her mood."

"Oh" Ning Chen responded without saltiness and said, "Just agree."

Xia Ziyi was startled and said in confusion, "Did I ever say that Miss Luo agreed?"

"Ziyi, I can tell you very seriously, if a girl says it depends on her mood, it means she has agreed." Ning Chen said with an extremely serious expression.

Xia Ziyi Although he was very doubtful, he still nodded.

"Smart Lord Martial Marquis, it's useless for you to talk to my imperial brother." At this moment, a beautiful figure walked in from outside the palace and said with a smile.

"Xin Yu, why did you come out again if you weren't taking a good rest in the house?" Xia Ziyi frowned slightly, with concern on his face.

"I've been bored for a long time, so I have to come out for some air. Besides, I haven't paid my respects to my mother for a long time, so I always use the excuse of being uncomfortable with the cold, which is not an option," Xia Xinyu said with a smile.

Ning Chen stepped forward, stretched out his hand to feel his pulse, and then nodded lightly. It was pretty good, and there was no tendency for it to get worse.

"Marquis, do you know that there is a saying that men and women should not be intimate with each other?" Xia Xinyu smiled and continued, "If others see it, you will probably be charged with molesting the princess."

Ning Chen laughed dumbly, women are indeed animals that cannot be messed with.

Xia Ziyi didn't care about his sister's mischief, and Ning Chen was not an outsider. Friends couldn't get along with each other in the same manner as in court.

"Sir Martial Marquis, brother, you talk about your business, I just came over to take a look, it won't affect your discussion of business." Xia Xinyu found a place to sit down and said.

Although women cannot participate in politics, who of the two present can really drive this princess away.

Even a person with strong principles like Xia Ziyi is always as tolerant as possible towards his terminally ill sister and is unwilling to go against any of her wishes.

Ning Chen doesn't even care about these broken rules. Even if Great Xia also comes out with Empress, he doesn't care at all.

"Golden Staff National Master came this morning..."

Ning Chen explained what happened today and his plan. This matter is related to the balance of war between Great Xia and Four Extremes Realm, and there is no room for any negligence.

After hearing about the conspiracy, Xia Ziyi did not express an opinion, but only raised questions about the final trap.

"If Golden Staff National Master finds out that Calamity King doesn't have that many Phoenix Blood on him, wouldn't he be furious and retaliate?" Xia Ziyi said worriedly.

"Don't worry, I have my own solution for this matter. This Golden Staff National Master is now the most valuable asset. How can I fall out after using it once, but I won't tell my friends about the specific arrangements for the time being," Ning Chen replied.

"Master Martial Marquis, the Queen Mother is right, you are really full of bad ideas." Next to him, Xia Xinyu interjected at the right time and said.

"Thank you for the compliment, princess," Ning Chen said with a smile without moving.

"Heh, you're welcome." Xia Xinyu smiled softly, his face was invincible.

After Calamity King and Golden Staff National Master finished talking, Ning Chen's face suddenly became serious and he asked, "Ziyi, have you found anything about the poisoning?"

Xia Ziyi sighed deeply, shook his head, and said, "Most of the imperial doctors in the imperial court are only proficient in pharmacology and not familiar with the strange poisons in this world. I have sent people to search for famous doctors in Western Xinjiang. The Miao people there have been with poisonous weeds and insects all their lives. I think they will know what the poison they will be poisoned tomorrow will be."

"Yes"

Ning Chen nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

The incident happened so suddenly that he didn't have much clue. However, it was indeed a terrifying thing to poison Emperor Great Xia silently.

The people around Xia Emperor in the past have been carefully selected. Moreover, every food in the palace has a special little eunuch to taste it, which makes it more difficult to poison.

He had no idea, and Ning Chen didn't want to express any opinions. He looked at how late it was and said goodbye, "I'm going back first. Chi'er will stay in the palace for now. These days, I have to deal with Calamity King matters, so I may be inseparable."

"Be careful," Xia Ziyi warned seriously.

"Just in time, I'm going back home too, let's go together." At this time, Xia Xinyu stood up and said.

"It's an honor," Ning Chen said with a respectful look on his face.

"Knowing faces" Xia Xinyu chuckled.

The two of them walked out of the palace together. After leaving the palace, Ning Chen asked, "Princess, do you have something to ask me?"

"I really can't hide anything from you." Xia Xinyu sighed softly and said, the real purpose of asking Brother Huang to ask Miss Luo for help is to test this girl's identity."

"Yes." Ning Chen nodded, without denying it, and explained, "Princess, don't think too much. Ziyi's character is too kind. I didn't tell him because I didn't want to embarrass him. But Consort Luo's identity is unknown, so we have to guard against it and find out."

"I don't mean to blame you," Xia Xinyu said, "I know very well that the emperor is not suitable for sitting on this throne, but the matter has come to this, and there is no other way."

Having said this, Xia Xinyu stopped, looked at the person in front of him, and said with a pleading expression, "Ning Chen, you are the smartest among us. Xin Yu just begs you, no matter what happens in the future, please help me more."

"Princess, it's too outrageous for friends to say these things." Ning Chen showed a gentle smile on his face and said softly, "Besides, there is no need to explain such far-off matters. Seven Absolutes Body, there will always be a solution. You are now the dignified Eldest Princess. Apart from Ziyi and Empress Dowager, you are the most powerful."

"I'd like to lend you some good words." Xia Xinyu quirked his eyebrows and said with a sweet smile. In an instant, it was like a hundred flowers blooming, so beautiful that the people around him were in a trance.

Seeing the smile on the former's face again, Ning Chen smiled softly and said, "Let's go, don't affect others."

Xia Xinyu glanced at the pedestrians not far away, responded with a smile, and then continued walking together.

Great Xia To the west, Eternal Night Divine Cult The second temple, Zong Qianqiu stood quietly in the temple, Canfeng came with an old woman in strange clothes and bowed respectfully.

"Hall Master"

"How is the investigation going? What kind of poison did Emperor Great Xia have?" Zong Qianqiu asked.

The old woman's lips curved slightly and she said, "Preliminary confirmation, it should be Tuoluo Flower."

Zong Qianqiu frowned. Although he was not good at using poison, he had heard of most poisonous flowers and poisonous weeds, but he had never heard of Tuoluo Flower.

Seeing the former's expression, the old woman did not show off and explained, "The palace master does not know. This Tuoluo Flower is originally used to feed Gu insects. It is very precious. The flower itself has very little toxicity. Even if it enters the human body, there will be no difference. However, Tuoluo Flower has a characteristic. Once it encounters Udumbara Flower Pollen, it will immediately mutate and produce extremely strong toxicity. Gods and Buddhas cannot save the poisoned person."

Having said this, the old woman paused for a moment, with a strange smile on her face, and continued, "There is one more thing that the palace master may be more interested in."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Zong Qianqiu asked strangely.

"Great Xia is one of our doctors. When he was treating King Shoushan, the former Sixth Prince, a few days ago, he paid special attention to it. After trying it, it was finally confirmed that this person's blood indeed contains the poison of Tuoluo Flower," the old woman replied.

Hearing this news, Zong Qianqiu's eyes burst out with dazzling light. This is really unusual news.

King Shoushan He knew that the former Great Xia Sixth Prince had been frail and sick since childhood and often coughed up blood. After Xia Mingri succeeded to the throne, in order to wish his brother a speedy recovery, he specially gave him the title King Shoushan.

This was something everyone knew, and it was not unusual. However, the information hidden behind it was what interested him the most.

This King Shoushan was frail and sick, and could be said to have lived his whole life in isolation, but he was poisoned. This is not normal.

There is only one reason why King Shoushan could be poisoned, and that is the identity of his eldest son Xia Emperor.

"Poisonous Hag, Can Feng, try to find out whether the other Great Xia princes are also poisoned, and report the results to me as soon as possible," Zong Qianqiu replied.

"Yes"

The two of them respectfully accepted the order and immediately turned around and retreated.

After the two left, Zong Qianqiu's eyes kept flashing with cold light. If his guess was correct, there might be some ambitious person hidden deeper among Great Xia, and the fox's tail was about to leak out.
