Chapter 272 The Real Reason Is You

Jinxiu Pavilion of Marquis Mansion of Wu'an.

Xiao Jinxi said in a deep voice: "What is the real cause of Concubine Mei's death?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yun's hand trembled instantly: "In those years, the poison affected Mei'er's body. Her health was not good all the time, so she died of illness."

Xiao Jinxi shook her head, "No, Xiao Yun, you didn't tell the truth."

"If Nangong Chu just wanted to let Princess Mei stay in Tianqi without affecting the peace between the two countries, then the medicine he asked Ye Qing to use would not be able to wear down Concubine Mei's body."

Xiao Yun's eyes darkened, and he said firmly: "What I said is true, Meier died of illness because of her poor health."

Xiao Jinxi stared at Xiao Yun in front of him with doubts in his eyes, but after a while, he said, "Okay."

"Then tell me, what happened to Concubine Li's beauty?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yun raised his head in an instant, with a look of surprise on his face: "You know it all, so does the Eleventh Prince know it too?"

Xiao Jinxi's voice turned cold: "Xiao Yun, I know more than that. I will settle this account with Ye Qing sooner or later! What about you? What did you do here?"

Xiao Yun hurriedly said: "Emperor Zong Yuan did what happened to Concubine Li, and I didn't know it beforehand."

Xiao Jinxi's voice turned cold: "When Ji Haotian brought back the Gu worm from Dayue, he specifically looked for you, you don't know."

Xiao Yun stood up instantly, and said anxiously: "You know Hao'er, you caught him?"

Xiao Jinxi smiled at the corner of his mouth: "That's right. Your master, except for the one time you lied to him. At other times, you still care about him."

Xiao Yun's eyes darkened: "What did you do to Hao'er?"

Xiao Jinxi smiled lightly and said, "I won't do anything to him now. As for the future, it depends on whether you are worthy or not?"

"Xiao Yun, back then you clearly knew that it was a beauty show. Why did you lie to Ji Haotian?"

Xiao Yun's eyes darkened: "At that time, I was wondering about the relationship between Emperor Zongyuan and Ye Qing. I was also afraid that Emperor Zongyuan would know about my relationship with Ye Qing. That's why I didn't dare to say it."

"Later, I went to Dayue. I wanted to find a solution to the Gu, but in the end I couldn't find it."

"Later, I didn't know about Concubine Li until I returned to the palace. But at that time, I had no choice. There is no way to undo this Gu."

Xiao Jinxi asked: "You went to find a solution to the Gu, so you went into the Fallen Leaves Valley?"

Xiao Yun nodded and said: "That's right, I sneaked in at that time and wanted to go to the study to find a book about Beauty Elimination. I finally found that book, but what I saw was that there was no solution to this Gu. In the end, I couldn't help it. It’s still back to Apocalypse.”

At this moment, there was joy in Xiao Yun's eyes: "And that year, on a small hill in the north, I unexpectedly met my mother. Only then did I know my own life experience."

There was helplessness in Xiao Jinxi's eyes, if it hadn't been for that encounter, everything would have been different afterwards.

After a long time, Xiao Jinxi turned to look at Wei Mo, Wei Mo nodded, took out a portrait from his body and handed it to Xiao Yun.

Xiao Jinxi asked: "Xiao Yun, look at this person, do you know him?"

Xiao Yun took the portrait in doubt, looked at it, and said in surprise for a long time: "This person is Zhou Chang from Jishengtang. In the pharmacy back then, except for shopkeeper Liu, this was the man. He managed the medicinal materials in the pharmacy."

Then he asked in confusion: "But I went to the pharmacy a while ago, and this person is no longer in the pharmacy. Miss Xiao, how do you know this person?"

Xiao Jinxi responded: "I only found this person when I checked Ye Qing's pharmacy. Now that he is gone, I feel confused."

But he already understood in his heart, no wonder among the three, only Zhou Da knew how to undo the Gu.Because he has been in Ye Qing's pharmacy, he naturally knows a little about Ye Qing.

Liu Quan, Zhou Da, and Dayue merchants; of these three, one belonged to Emperor Ming Xi, one belonged to Ye Qing, and the other belonged to Prince Qi.This line is really cautious!But now it seems that Xiao Yun is completely unaware of this!
After a while, he asked, "Xiao Yun, you were able to enter the Fallen Leaves Valley back then. Are you sure you are allowed to enter now?"

But Xiao Yun shook his head: "Not necessarily. I just found out a while ago that Ye Qing knew about my entry into Fallen Leaves Valley. Now, I don't know if Fallen Leaves Valley has changed."

Xiao Jinxi smiled: "It's okay, as long as you remember the way back then, that's enough."

Then the voice turned cold: "Xiao Yun, Emperor Zongyuan trusts you so much. You must know a lot about him. Why is he treating Concubine Li so much?"

Xiao Yun hurriedly shook his head and said, "I don't know. I wasn't in the palace at the time, so I don't know why."

Seeing Xiao Yun shaking his head in denial so urgently, Xiao Jinxi had doubts in his eyes: "Even if you were not in the palace, you were in charge of the imperial forest army and the secret guard back then. Would you not know about the affairs in the palace?"

Xiao Yun hurriedly replied: "Besides me, Emperor Zongyuan also has other trusted people. When I am not in the palace, Emperor Zongyuan always asks them to handle affairs. So I can't find out."

Xiao Jinxi's eyes dimmed for an instant, staring at Xiao Yun in front of him, and then said: "Then tell me, how did Emperor Zong Yuan get in touch with Ye Qing?"

Xiao Yun's eyes darkened: "It's Prince Qi. Back then, Nangong Chu was still an ordinary prince, and he was in charge of diplomatic affairs at Honglu Temple in Dayue. He was involved in most of the diplomatic affairs between Dayue and Tianqi."

"Emperor Zong Yuan, who was still the prince at that time, was in charge of the Honglu House. Back then, he had a secret connection with the prince."

"Emperor Zong Yuan ascended the throne later. Prince Qi's influence in Dayue gradually grew."

"Back when I knew that Emperor Zongyuan went to Dayue to get Gu worms, I wondered how Ye Qing got in touch with Emperor Zongyuan."

"Some time ago, I saw Ye Qing come out of Prince Qi's mansion with my own eyes, and I just realized that these three people have been in contact for a long time."

Xiao Jinxi smiled at the corner of his mouth: "It turns out that these three people have been secretly connected for a long time. But there is one thing, don't you find it strange?"

"Emperor Zong Yuan trusted you so much that he let you be in charge of the Imperial Forest Army and the Dark Guard. If he knew about your relationship with Ye Qing, how could he trust you so much?"

Xiao Yun nodded and replied: "A while ago, I was also surprised to know the relationship between these three people. Presumably Ye Qing didn't tell Emperor Zong Yuan my identity."

Xiao Jinxi continued: "One more thing, don't you think it's strange? The original purpose of Prince Qi was to keep Princess Mei in Tianqi, so as not to affect the peace between the two countries. How could Prince Qi leave you as a variable in the Prince's Mansion. "

Xiao Yun asked suspiciously, "You mean the Empress Dowager Dayue and Prince Qi don't even know of my existence?"

Xiao Jinxi nodded and said, "It's very possible, if he knows about your existence and you can't be used by him, why would he keep you?"

"At that time, the first young master of Dayue ascended the throne. In order to gain the trust of the Empress Dowager Dayue, Nangong Chu single-handedly facilitated the peace between the two countries."

"It doesn't matter whether Prince Qi knows about the enmity between you and Ye Qing. If he knows about your relationship with Princess Mei, in order not to affect the peace between the two countries."

"He will definitely find a way to let the prince know that even if Emperor Zong Yuan keeps you, he will definitely not be able to trust you that much."

Xiao Yun's eyes darkened: "You mean, only Ye Qing knows about my being with Emperor Zong Yuan."

Xiao Jinxi's eyes darkened: "Perhaps Prince Qi only knows that Ye Qing poisoned Princess Mei and forced her to come to Tianqi to get married. But he doesn't know that the real reason why Princess Mei chose to come to Tianqi is you."

"Then Ye Qing did this, besides helping Prince Qi, what other reason would there be?"

Xiao Yun's eyes darkened, and there was doubt in his eyes.

Xiao Jinxi said: "It seems that you don't know either. I'm also very interested in the real reason why Ye Qing made such trouble. When we catch Ye Qing, we will naturally understand."

Then he asked: "Xiao Yun, besides Beauty Elimination, did Emperor Zong Yuan ask Ye Qing for anything else?"

Xiao Yun was shocked for a moment: "No, the only thing I know is Meirenxiao. Miss Xiao, what else do you know?"

Xiao Jinxi shook her head, "I'm just wondering if Ye Qing has other things to worry about here."

After a while, Xiao Yun hurriedly asked: "Miss Xiao, when do you plan to arrest Ye Qing?"

Xiao Jinxi smiled, "Of course Ye Qing wants to be arrested. But there are some things I haven't asked clearly. After you tell me, we'll talk about arresting Ye Qing."
