Chapter 37 Poisoning
After several days of investigation, there is still no result in this incident.This also made His Majesty the Emperor furious.The results of two consecutive murder cases could not be found, which was simply a challenge to his majesty.

The more he thought about it, the more irritated he became, and he couldn't help but vent his anger on the people below.

On this day, His Majesty the Emperor called a young man into the imperial study. After scolding him, he wrote down the imperial edict of marriage, and then handed it to the eunuch aside, "Eunuch Zhang, please send this imperial edict of marriage. Give it to the regent and ask him to find out the murderer."

Eunuch Zhang received the order and bowed to receive it.

"My slave obeys the order, let's do it now."

……

Regent House.

"Your Highness, Eunuch Zhang would like to see you."

Song Jiyang was sitting in the pavilion admiring flowers and drinking tea, when he suddenly heard the boy's announcement and frowned.

"You want me to be the bad guy." Song Jiyang murmured in a low voice, put down the teacup, stood up and walked out of the pavilion.

As soon as Eunuch Zhang saw Song Jiyang, he immediately knelt down and sang loudly: "Meet the regent."

"No courtesy." Song Jiyang glanced at him lightly, "Why is Eunuch Zhang free to come here today?"

Eunuch Zhang smiled flatteringly, "This servant is here to deliver the imperial edict." He raised the yellow cloth scroll in his hand and motioned for Song Jiyang to come over and take a look.

Song Jiyang walked to him, bent down to open the scroll, and observed it carefully. It was indeed an imperial edict written by His Majesty himself.

He curled up his lips and smiled helplessly, "Since His Majesty has asked me to investigate this matter, I am naturally obligated. But if something is found that should not be investigated, he has to help me take care of it."

Eunuch Zhang was startled and hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Your Majesty has already made it clear. Just go and check it out."

Song Jiyang smiled and took the imperial edict into his arms.

He turned around, stood with his hands behind his back, looked at Eunuch Zhang and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch."

Eunuch Zhang was flattered and shook his head hastily, "Your Majesty, you're welcome. Then we won't waste Your Majesty's time, and we will return to the palace to resume our duties."

Song Jiyang waved his hand at him, "Eunuch, go slowly."

Eunuch Zhang left in a hurry.

Song Jiyang turned around and glanced in the direction where he disappeared, curled his lips indifferently, and then walked out.

……

"Huo Qingluan, this damn girl, still has money to live in such a big yard after leaving the Huo family. It must have been left to her by that damn old man!" Huo Qingluan heard something very familiar to her as soon as she got off the carriage. And the sound of disgust.

"Ye Yiqian, you can't change your bad mouth, right?" Huo Qingluan looked at the two people in front of him coldly, his eyes as cold as the snow in the cold winter months.

"Bitch, who are you talking about!" Ye Yiqian's eyes widened angrily.

Huo Qingluan smiled sarcastically: "Of course I'm talking about you." After saying this, she turned around and walked towards the door.

Ye Yiqian suddenly became anxious and quickly chased after her to block her way, "Huo Qingluan, stop!"

Huo Qingluan stopped and glanced at her with a half-smile, "Auntie, what advice do you have?"

"How long do you plan to stay outside?! The dignified eldest lady of the Huo family is hiding outside and not going home. Are you embarrassed?" Ye Yiqian put her hands on her hips and cursed at her.

Huo Qingluan chuckled, "Auntie, are you going to beat me up? I clearly remember that it was you who drove me back, right?!"

"You're talking nonsense! Where did I drive you away?" Ye Yiqian glared at her, "If you hadn't done that kind of thing in the first place, how could I have said those words in a moment of anger. It's okay if you don't repent. , now that I, the aunt, have come to invite you in person, you just don’t appreciate it and you still slander me?”

Looking at more and more people surrounding him, Huo Qingluan's patience was completely exhausted.She warned her word for word: "Ye Yiqian, if you dare to say nonsense again, try it."

When Ye Yiqian heard this, she suddenly felt a chill in her heart. "Huo Qingluan, don't think that you can do whatever you want after you regain your appearance. I'm afraid you got this house by selling your beauty, right?"

"Snapped--"

Huo Qingluan waved his hand and slapped her hard.

She exerted so much force that half of Ye Yiqian's face quickly swelled.

Ye Yiqian covered her red cheeks in disbelief and roared, "How dare you hit me!"

"Pah -" there was another loud slap, "What if I just slap you?" Huo Qingluan stared at her coldly, looking arrogant and domineering.

"Miss, how could you do this to Madam! She is your aunt!" Mrs. Liu looked at the scene in front of her in shock and couldn't help but screamed.

"Shut up!" Huo Qingluan glared at her fiercely.

Mrs. Liu was so frightened that she fell silent and stepped aside aggrievedly.

"Ye Yiqian, I warn you, don't make me angry. Otherwise, you and your dog slave will be dead." Huo Qingluan stared at her gloomily and said harsh words through gritted teeth.

Ye Yiqian stamped her feet angrily, and finally did not dare to make a mistake.

Huo Qingluan then turned around and walked into the house with satisfaction.

After Mrs. Liu helped Ye Yiqian away, she asked, "Madam, is this really okay?"

Ye Yiqian rubbed her painful face and said bitterly: "Okay, why not! So what if Huo Qingluan regains her appearance, I will make her become ugly again!" She cursed viciously.

Mrs. Liu nodded, "Madam, you are wise."

Huo Qingluan returned to the yard and as usual checked the other side flowers he had planted.She squatted down, stretched out her right hand, held one of the Bianhua flowers in her hand, and gently stroked its soft petals.

However, the next moment, the petals instantly withered and turned into powder and fell into her palm.

what happened?

Huo Qingluan checked the Bianhua flower again. After repeated experiments, she found that the reason why those petals turned into powder was because of her right hand.

What did this hand do again today?

Wait, it seems like... I beat Ye Yiqian!
She took out her hairpin from her hair and gently rubbed it in her hand a few times. The silver hairpin was soon stained with a light layer of white frost.

It doesn't look like makeup powder, but more like some kind of medicine.

After scraping everything off her hands, she turned around and fetched water to wash her hands.After the remaining white frost melted into the water, it instantly became pitch black, and Huo Qingluan's hands instantly became wrinkled, like the hands of an old man over a hundred years old.

Sure enough, this is poisoning!
Huo Qingluan's eyes flashed with a sharp light.

No wonder Ye Yiqian suddenly came to the house and made such a fuss. It turned out that she wanted to take the opportunity to destroy herself.

This woman's thoughts are so vicious!
Her mood suddenly became terrible, but she soon calmed down.

This kind of medicinal powder is obviously not something Ye Yiqian can get, and using herself as bait is not something that the woman can think of.

It seems like someone is causing trouble behind the scenes.

If they want to frame her, they will never get what they want.

She soaked her hand in the clear lake water and felt her right hand slowly becoming fuller, and she breathed a sigh of relief.Fortunately, she had scraped off most of the powder, otherwise she would not have known how to cure this unknown poison.
