Chapter 207 Devious and Insidious
It was late at night, in the main hall of Marquis Wending's mansion.

"Okay, let me say." Ji Haotian said instantly.

At this moment, Xiao Jinxi sneered at the corner of his mouth, and said: "Ji Haotian, from the very beginning, you kept your words hidden. Can I still believe your words?"

Ji Haotian smiled wryly, and said: "Miss Xiao, you threaten me with your master, can I not say it?"

After a while, Xiao Jinxi turned his head back to his chair and said, "Okay. Tell me, I'll listen. The final result depends on what you said, how true it is!"

After a long time, Ji Haotian finally said: "Emperor Zong Yuan asked me to go to Dayue to get that medicine back then."

At this moment, Mo Yi had a murderous look in his eyes, and his voice turned cold: "Emperor Zong Yuan asked you to go to Dayue to get it?"

Ji Haotian continued to respond: "The Jishengtang in Dayue is a pharmacy."

Xiao Jinxi's eyes narrowed, and he asked, "The majestic Emperor Tianqi asked you to go to a pharmacy in Da Viet to get something, didn't you ever doubt it?"

Ji Haotian shook his head helplessly, and said: "No, I had doubts in my heart at the time. But he is the emperor, and he asked me to get it, so I can only get it."

Xiao Jinxi's voice turned cold, and said, "Really? Okay, you continue."

Ji Haotian continued: "That happened in October of the fourth year of Zongyuan. At that time, Master was sent by Emperor Zongyuan to do some business, so he was not in the palace."

"On that day, Emperor Zongyuan gave me a letter, and when I got there, I gave it to the shopkeeper."

"I got there and the man took the letter. I waited there for a long time. Then the man came back and gave me a medicine bottle and said that's what I wanted."

"But since I followed Master and entered the palace all these years, Emperor Zong Yuan never sent me an errand alone."

"When I returned to Tianqi with the bottle of medicine, I was still uneasy. So before returning to the palace, I went to see Master."

"I asked Master, what kind of medicine is this? Why did Emperor Zongyuan specially ask me to go to Dayue to get this medicine?"

"At that time, when Master saw the medicine, he was in a daze for a long time."

"But in the end, he told me that this is the secret medicine that Emperor Zongyuan wanted to strengthen his body. Just let me take it back and give it to Emperor Zongyuan. He also said that this is what the emperor wants, so I can't tell it to the outside world."

"At that time, seeing Master's expression, I was suspicious."

"But I followed Master since I was a child, and he never lied to me. In the end, I took the medicine back to the palace and gave it to Emperor Zong Yuan."

"But after returning to the palace, I was still uneasy. I kept watching secretly."

"One day, I actually saw that Emperor Zongyuan stuffed the pill into the collar of a women's cloak."

"At that time, my doubts were even deeper. After Emperor Zongyuan stuffed the pill, he actually called the chief eunuch Wang Gonggong beside him, and sewed up the small opening in front of him."

"In the end, Emperor Zong Yuan told the prince that these two cloaks were given to Concubine Li and the Eleventh Prince."

"I also specifically told the prince to put it in this month's case, and just send it over together."

"Later, I followed Eunuch Wang secretly, and I heard Eunuch Wang specifically tell the group of eunuchs that he knew that they would detain a lot of money every month when he went to Shoukang Palace, but now that the weather is cold, don't hit these two things." Cloak idea."

"The group of eunuchs naturally didn't dare to take off those two cloaks after being warned by the prince. Those two cloaks finally went to Shoukang Palace."

At this moment, Mo Yi clenched his hands tightly, with a murderous look in his eyes...

Ah!Since the winter of the third year of Zongyuan, the charcoal fires sent by the palace have never been enough.In November of the fourth year of Zongyuan, the imperial capital was colder than in previous years.Among the samples sent that day, there were rarely two cloaks.But unexpectedly, the problem lies in those two cloaks!

Xiao Jinxi who was on the side looked at Mo Yi, saw the man's clenched hands, frowned, walked forward, sat next to the man, and held the man's hand.

At this moment, Dugu Ziyan's eyes were full of disbelief... Xiao Yun and Ji Haotian were actually involved in the death of Concubine Li!

Ji Haotian continued: "At that time, my doubts deepened. Therefore, I sneaked into Shoukang Palace at night, went to Concubine Li's bedroom, and found the cloak stuffed with medicine."

"However, I discovered that there is a small hole at the neckline of that cloak!"

"I opened it and saw that there was a medicine shell inside. And that medicine shell was the medicine I brought back!"

"Look at the medicine shell, it seems that something has broken out of the shell!"

At this moment, Mo Yi instantly understood... It turned out that the concubine mother knew the truth of the matter only when she saw the medicine shell in the cloak.That's why I kept hiding it and didn't say anything.I just hope that my grandmother can take me back to Mo's house as soon as possible.

Ji Haotian continued: "I was frightened by that thing at the time. I didn't realize that anyone had come over."

"I just came back to my senses when I heard the sound of the door opening. So at that time, I used Lingyun Step and fled quickly."

"After a few days, I heard that Concubine Li had contracted a cold. At first I thought it was just a cold. But I don't understand why Emperor Zong Yuan stuffed that medicine into his cloak."

"It wasn't until one night, when I found an opportunity to sneak into Shoukang Palace, that I realized that Concubine Li was vomiting blood there, but after vomiting the blood, she quickly cleaned it up."

"When the Eleventh Prince returned to his bedroom, he couldn't see anything anymore."

"At this moment, I can no longer believe that Concubine Li just has a cold!"

"I remembered again the strange look on Master's face when he saw this medicine."

"At this moment, I can no longer believe that the medicine is just a secret medicine to strengthen the body."

"When Master returned to the palace later, he learned that Emperor Zongyuan had used this medicine on Concubine Li. He was also shocked! I asked him, why did he lie to me?"

At this moment, Ji Haotian had guilt in his eyes: "I asked Master for an antidote. But Master said that there is no antidote for that medicine. In the end, Concubine Li will just fade away and die."

At this moment, Ji Haotian smiled wryly, and continued: "Heh...he told me since I was a child that people in the Jianghu do not kill old, weak, women and children who have no strength to restrain chickens. But now, he clearly knows what the medicine is, but he deceives me I."

"Master, whom I trust so much, actually watched me and delivered this medicine to Emperor Zongyuan."

"Not long after, Concubine Li passed away. Everyone in the palace said that she died of illness. But I know that Emperor Zongyuan planned all of this secretly. And I am the accomplice in all of this."

"I just watched helplessly as a helpless woman was tortured and died because of the medicine I brought back."

"I hate even more. The master I trusted since I was a child clearly knew the truth, but he didn't tell me, and just watched me do all this."

"And that palace is even more puzzling to me. Emperor Zongyuan is on the throne, if there is a legitimate reason, why didn't he just kill Concubine Li?"

"He is a majestic Ninth Five-Year Supreme, but he used such a devious and insidious method to kill a deep palace woman."

"Later, I finally found a chance and escaped from that palace."

At this moment, Ji Haotian smiled bitterly again: "But I didn't expect that in the end the master also wanted to enter that palace wholeheartedly."

"But I know, I can't persuade her, I can only go with her."

"Back then, I tried my best to escape from the place, but I finally went back."

"Later, Master searched for traces and found me in Yunzhou. Later, I was seriously injured by you, and he saved me."
