The Difference Between Cloud and Mud [14]
During that year when Princess Zhang had passed away, Aunt Jian Qu knocked her head against the coffin and died. The loyalty she held toward Princess Zhang led people to admire her with gratitude. The Emperor had passed down an imperial decree, conferring her a posthumous title â âPrincess Ren Yi.â She was buried along with Princess Zhang into the imperial tomb.
The only person at the scene was Aunt Jian Qu but now even she isnât alive anymore. Then who else can prove that it was Concubine Xue that poisoned Princess Zhang?
Would they have to open the tomb and check out the corpse?
No, absolutely not. If she had startled Princess Zhangâs departed spirit then her conscious wonât be at peace forever.
âDong Ling, you need to pay attention to Concubine Xueâs actions recently. We will slowly start to gather the pieces of evidence.â
âYes!â Dong Ling nodded her head, hard. Gathering the evidence to revenge for Princess hang, this event is her responsibility!
âTomorrow, there are still other things going on. You can go to rest soon.â Huang Bei Yue exclaimed, tired.
âYoung miss, you should go rest early too.â Dong Ling saw that she didnât have the intentions of sleeping yet and couldnât help but to be worried.
âI still have some other things going on. You go sleep first. Of the two of us, one of us needs some rest.â
Dong Ling heard and knew that young miss cared about her a lot. She handed all the important things to do to her so Dong Ling nodded her head and didnât say anything else anymore. She opened the lights then went to sleep.
Huang Bei Yue took out theăHundred Ways of Refinement Scrollăand spent the whole night with the lights on, carefully looking through the chapters on antidotes on the scroll numerous times.
Of course, even though it was the Medicine SaintâsăHundred Ways of Refinement Scrollă, it had nothing related to the antidotes for Sky Swallowing Red Snakeâs poison. However, in between the scroll, there was a type of refined pill called the âHundred Poisons Pillâ which can suppress the toxicity.
Itâs just that the grade of the âHundred Poisons Pillâ is too high and based on her ability right now, it will be quite difficult if she wanted to refine this.
Plus the hundred poisonous items needed in order to refine âHundred Poisons Pillâ isnât easy to obtain either.
However, in order to help Zhan Ye, no matter how hard it is, she will still try!
She recorded all the materials needed for the âHundred Poisons Pillâ onto a paper. Tomorrow, she will go let Dong Ling go to Bu Ji Er market to buy them. The rest of the poisonous items that arenât easy to acquire would be up for her to personally go find them.
****Royal Court Bei Yue****
When the day was almost lit, Huang Bei Yue just started to close her eyes to rest for a while. By the time she went to Ling Yang College in the morning for class, there were black bags surrounding her eyes. Her eyes were bloodshot.
Dong Ling felt distressed badly early in the morning when she saw her in this state.
âYoung miss originally had a weak body already. How come you donât know to love your body?â
âThis is no big deal.â When she thought back to the 21st century, sometimes in order to complete the task given by her master, she had to conceal herself into the tropical rainforest. She wouldnât be able to sleep for three days and night. Not only that, she would be attacked by all sorts of wild beasts and poisonous insects. Now, that is called torture.
Now, itâs just that Huang Bei Yueâs body wasnât good from the start. After eating Xiao Yao Wangâs Jade Pill that he had given, her body should be much better.
After she dressed up and combed her hair in a simple matter, she went to the front yard with Dong Ling.
Everyone within family Xiao including Xiao Yuan Cheng was waiting for her. It was unbelievably funny. Now that they are without her, these worthless people all dared not to head out the door?
She didnât look at anyone and walked straight towards the horse carriage. She closed her eyes, resting.
âFather, look at her arrogant expression!â Xiao Yun furiously exclaimed.
âShut up!â Xiao Yuan Cheng lowly shouted. He waved his hand to let Xiao Yun and Xiao Rou onto the horse carriage. Then he headed out the door.
Because they needed to guard against prefecture of Anguo Gongâs people, whenever a member of family Xiao needed to go ou, there will always be a huge group of bodyguards, at least ten or so, following majestically behind them.
Xiao Yun got on Huang Bei Yueâs horse carriage. After Concubine Xueâs advice and talk yesterday, Xiao Yunâs superior feeling of self-ego came back again. She assumed the position of the future WangFei and sat across from Huang Bei Yue.
