Everyone dispersed as ordered.
Su Mengyan was not idle either. She walked around and looked around.
They came to a relatively remote place. Looking at the room in front of her, Su Mengyan felt that this place was very strange. It was relatively remote and could easily be overlooked.
If there was someone in this place, thinking of this, Su Mengyan bravely pushed open the door.
This is a woodshed. Originally, the imperial kitchen provided meals from various places, but sometimes, Su Mengzhen wanted to eat something he made himself.
When Situ Yao found out that the imperial kitchen couldn't produce that taste, he ordered someone to add this place.
He covered his nose and waved his other hand. The woodshed had not been used for some time, and as soon as the door was opened, a cloud of dust came in.
I sniffed hard and found that besides the smell of dust, there was also a faint smell of blood.
This is……
Su Mengyan's face changed and she was about to leave.
A man suddenly closed the door. He was wearing black clothes and black pants, with a black scarf covering half of his face. His eyes were shining in the moonlight coming through the window.
Sure enough, the assassin was here.
"You could have escaped when I opened the door just now." Su Mengyan saw that the man did not make any move to attack her.
He just closed the door, but didn't take any further action.
Su Mengyan couldn't understand what this person was trying to do.
If he wanted to use himself as a hostage to leave here, he should have put a knife to his own neck, right?
But he didn't. If he didn't want to kidnap me, what was the point of keeping me here?
Could it be that the two of them could live out their lives drinking and singing in this small woodshed?
Feeling that she was thinking too much, Su Mengyan couldn't help but praise herself for being able to daydream.
Who knew that the man would pull down the black cloth on his face and say, "I won't leave."
"It's you." Looking at the familiar face in front of her, Su Mengyan's voice turned cold.
Originally, if it was an ordinary assassin, it would be fine, but this person turned out to be Leng Yan.
Thinking about what Cui Mixue asked Leng Yan to do before, Su Mengyan's eyes became colder and colder.
However, she also knew that she was no match for Leng Yan, even though Leng Yan was already injured.
Moreover, this place is relatively remote. If you listen carefully, there is no sound outside. In this way, Su Mengyan has no chance of winning.
Leng Yan glanced at Su Mengyan, and seeing her cold expression, he didn't want to say anything more.
He had done what happened before, and it was impossible for him to deny it. Even if Su Mengyan hated him, it was reasonable. Even if those things were not what he wanted to do, but he was forced to do them by Cui Mixue, there was no way to erase those memories.
Seeing Leng Yan ignoring her, Su Mengyan snorted coldly: "Why, what did Cui Mixue ask you to do again?"
After hearing this, Leng Yan explained: "I have nothing to do with her now."
The rare explanation made Su Mengyan silent.
After a while, she asked, "Then what are you doing here?" This time, her tone was much better than before.
Leng Yan also felt the change in her tone, but his attitude remained unchanged. He said indifferently, "It has nothing to do with you."
This is too much, really too much, Su Mengyan thought, he has come to me, and he still says it has nothing to do with me?
"Has someone in your palace been poisoned?" Leng Yan suddenly asked.
In fact, Leng Yan knew it when he saw Chu Meng. He asked now just to confirm it.
After hearing this, Su Mengyan's attitude, which had finally improved a little, turned cold again: "How do you know? Did you poison me?"
Leng Yan rolled his eyes at her and continued, "This poison is contagious. If there is no antidote, everyone in the palace will be doomed."
So serious?
Su Mengyan was a little bit unconvinced, but when she thought about the people who had fallen again and again in her palace, she began to believe it a little.
Could it be that this poison will really cause great suffering to all the people in the palace?
As a modern person, Su Mengyan cannot stand such things as taking human lives lightly.
She now misses modern medicine very much. She thinks that if this situation occurred in modern times, an antidote would definitely be developed as quickly as possible.
However, this is not the modern era, and there are no such powerful medical personnel.
However, Su Mengyan knew that this poison was specifically targeted at her.
It seems that I have harmed so many people because I have been innocently implicated.
"How do you know that this poison is contagious? Do you know who poisoned it?" Su Mengyan thought of this question.
Looking at Leng Yan again, he said nothing when he heard this question, and even his expression did not change.
There is no way to know whether he knows who poisoned him.
However, since Leng Yan knew that this poison was contagious, he must have some understanding of it. It was very likely that he knew who poisoned it, but was just unwilling to say it.
There's nothing I can do if he doesn't tell me about Su Mengyan. He can't force me to ask him who he is.
The next day, Su Mengyan called the imperial physician over early in the morning. She thought that since she knew that the poison was contagious, she should tell the imperial physician about it. Perhaps the imperial physician would come up with a solution.
"What? This poison is actually contagious?" the imperial physician asked in surprise.
Su Mengyan nodded and told the imperial physician everything she knew.
"Strange, this is really strange. I have never heard of or seen such a poison. This... I'm afraid I can't do anything about it!" More and more palace maids have collapsed in the East Palace in the past few days, and the imperial physician naturally knows about it.
He never thought that this poison could be contagious, and it was still unknown whether these people were infected or poisoned.
If he was poisoned, then who was the one who poisoned him?
What was the method of poisoning? He had been searching for so long but had found nothing. He didn't even know how the poison was administered.
Those palace maids were poisoned for no reason.
He also asked the palace maids whether they had come into contact with or eaten anything, but without exception, there was no clue.
Things became increasingly confusing, and even the imperial physician, with his many years of experience, didn't know how to deal with it.
Therefore, after learning that the poison was contagious, the imperial physician said that there was nothing he could do. As an imperial physician, it was a humiliation for him to say such words, but he could only tell the truth.
He didn't want so many lives to be lost in vain because of him.
He said that he had no ability just to make Su Mengyan pay more attention to this matter. He had no way, but maybe others did. He could find other people, and maybe those people still had a way out.
Hearing the imperial physician say this, Su Mengyan didn't know what to say, so she just waved her hand and let him go.
