"If you have a problem, co after ," Yue Mingxuan said while looking at her smiling face.
At that mont he truly understood the aning of so won are simply twisted.
Seeing Yue Mingxuan rush in alone, Xie Lianhua guessed he had no real evidence and maybe only a suspicion.
With this thought, her smile beca even sweeter. "How do you know you’re wrong? I was aiming for you. You were just lucky soone took the poison for you. Such a pity. That poison really has no antidote."
Hearing Xie Lianhua’s words, Yue Mingxuan felt as if a bucket of cold water poured straight into his heart.
All his hope froze.
Since they had already torn off their masks, if Xie Lianhua had an antidote, she would definitely use it to threaten him.
When he ca, he had already prepared himself, he would agree to any demand for Sui He, no matter how outrageous.
But now, even Xie Lianhua said this.
That ant the poison truly had no cure.
Yue Mingxuan did not know how he left, nor did he know how he returned to his courtyard.
When he finally ca to his senses, he was already sitting in the small garden inside his courtyard.
Facing the room just a few steps away where Sui He lay unconscious Yue Mingxuan suddenly felt a deep sense of guilt.
If not for his own greedy little desire for money, Sui He would not be lying on the bed like this, unaware of anything.
And even worse, when Sui He woke up, he would have to face a ruined face.
Although, Yue Mingxuan was a Ger now, but he still understood clearly how important a face was to a woman.
They’re not asking to be breathtakingly beautiful, but at least not rotting and unable to be seen.
The night air was cold like water.
Yue Mingxuan grabbed his own hair in pain.
This poison must destroy the body’s internal balance, causing the skin on the face to rot.
He hated himself for not studying more back in school.
If he had, he wouldn’t be completely helpless now.
Just when Yue Mingxuan was out of ideas, a small eunuch appeared sneakily beside him.
Having an outsider suddenly approaching him made Yue Mingxuan instantly alert.
"Who are you? Why are you in my courtyard?"
The little eunuch looked left and right, and then whispered sothing quickly to Yue Mingxuan ear, "This servant was sent by a noble person to deliver a ssage to you."
"Speak." Yue Mingxuan had no mood left to deal with anyone politely.
The eunuch glanced at him, then spoke very fast. "The poison called Flower Blossom truly has no antidote. But having no antidote does not an its effects cannot be slowed. If treated little by little, perhaps, in the future, it may even be cured."
After he heard this, Yue Mingxuan’s mind began calculating quickly.
To know such deep secrets, the noble person behind this eunuch must either be very powerful or very rich.
And to know about Sui He’s condition the mont it happened and to find soone to contact Yue Mingxuan right away... In this palace, the most powerful person was the Emperor, but obviously it wasn’t him.
As for Concubine Keshun or Concubine Hua, they would never dare steal the Emperor’s spotlight, especially when the Emperor currently favored Yue Mingxuan.
Thinking of all this, Yue Mingxuan finally understood a little. "Miss Fang has quite the ability. She can even reach her hands into the palace. Tell what she wants. Na the price."
The little eunuch froze for a mont.
He had not expected that with just one sentence, Yue Mingxuan would guess the person behind everything.
When he thought of the one thousand taels of gold promised to him, he forced himself to act energetic and flatter Yue Mingxuan.
"Your Highness is as smart as ice and snow. You understand everything at once."
"It must be because she wants the Moon Bracing Sun Hairpin," Yue Mingxuan said.
He could guess Miss Fang’s identity only because of the story Sui He had told him before about the Shangsi Festival.
Now, Sui He lay unconscious on the bed and he had to trade the Moon Bracing Sun Hairpin to get the dicine that could slow down her poison.
Everything seed like fate in the dark.
The eunuch laughed dryly twice but did not answer.
Yue Mingxuan waved his hand impatiently. "Show so real sincerity. Otherwise, how can I trust anything you say?"
"The noble one said that the reason Sui He is like this now is because Flower Blossom made the blood and energy inside her body go out of balance. So you only need to strengthen her blood and energy. But the reason Flower Blossom has no cure is because its ingredients are too violent. They are all extrely strong tonics. So to ease the symptoms, only the Orchid can work."
Yue Mingxuan tilted his head and thought about the eunuch’s words.
He never knew that White Mist Orchid could do anything other than warm the body.
His eyes turned and an idea ca to him.
"White Mist Orchid is a common dicine. It is sothing the palace always has. Your so-called sincerity is too cheap."
A flash of disdain appeared in the eunuch’s eyes, but he quickly hid it. "Your Highness, what I ant the Orchid is the Crimson Heart Orchid. This Crimson Heart Orchid is not the sa as ordinary White Mist Orchid. The Crimson Heart Orchid the noble one ntioned cos from seeds taken from Mount Tensei. They are planted using a secret thod inside a baby’s belly button. Every day, they are watered with Mount Tensei snow water and the baby’s own fresh blood. When the flower blooms, the baby dies. The Crimson Heart Orchid contains the natural energy the baby carried from its mother’s womb. Otherwise, how could it suppress a fierce poison like Flower Blossom?"
After he heard this, Yue Mingxuan was deeply shocked.
