Xiao Moyan's expression remained cold as ever. He stared at Ji Xingzhi for a long time, then casually said four words: "To protect you."
Ji Xingzhi was stunned when she heard this, staring at Xiao Moyan's handsome face in a daze. Did she misunderstand something?
Xiao Moyan slowly stood up, his eyes inadvertently glanced at Ji Xingzhi's bare feet, and said lightly: "You are fine now, don't catch a cold again."
After saying that, Xiao Moyan turned around and walked out of the room.
Watching Xiao Moyan walking away, Ji Xingzhi clenched his fists slightly and called out, "Liu Yang"
Almost instantly after he finished speaking, Liu Yang appeared outside the door.
Walking into the room and seeing Ji Xingzhi with a sullen face, Liu Yang couldn't help but feel puzzled. He had been secretly protecting the emperor during this period of time. Every time he reported to the emperor about things inside and outside the palace, the emperor never got angry. Why did his face change so suddenly after he just chatted with the regent for a few words?
Without thinking any further, Liu Yang bowed his head and said to Ji Xingzhi, "What are your instructions, Your Majesty?"
Ji Xingzhi pondered for a moment, then said calmly, "Bring the eunuch to see me."
Liu Yang paused slightly: "As you command."
After Liu Yang left, Ji Xingzhi immediately reached out and touched her pulse. Apart from the poison given by Uncle Qin, there was no sign of any other poison. The poison given to her by Uncle Qin seemed to be suppressed by something, so it had not yet taken effect. She guessed that it was probably because the medicine that the emperor's uncle gave her when the poison broke out in Liangcheng suppressed the toxicity, which was also a good thing.
But she couldn't keep putting off the poison forever. If there were any aftereffects, it would be more trouble than it's worth. She should also start preparing to go to Shuizhou State. She wondered what Uncle Qin's expression would be when he saw her again. And she didn't know what happened to Su Yang and Bai Qingman...
As she thought about it, there were more and more things to do. Ji Xingzhi then realized that she still had many things to do. As soon as she returned to the imperial capital, she was delayed by the Luo family father and daughter and a bunch of messy things.
Never mind. Ji Xingzhi couldn't help but rub his temples and came to a conclusion: There are really too many things to do. If I had known earlier, I would have been a quiet little emperor.
It was already afternoon when Liu Yang brought the eunuch to the Regent's Palace.
Ji Xingzhi lay on the table, staring straight at the eunuch, and calmly uttered two words: "Speak."
The eunuch felt a little uneasy at first when Ji Xingzhi looked at him, but when Ji Xingzhi spoke, the eunuch was no longer so embarrassed. Instead, he sighed and thought to himself: It turns out that I can't hide it from the emperor...
The prince had told him before that if the emperor didn't ask, it would be fine, but if he did, he must tell everything. I believe the prince knew from the beginning that he couldn't hide it.
The eunuch, who had already thought of the wording, told Ji Xingzhi all the details. The story started with the inconspicuous beauty He Wan sent by Luo Ling, the King of Luo in the southwest...
Time passes bit by bit, and when the truth comes out, many people are unwilling to believe it because that is often not the answer people want to know.
Fortunately, this answer was exactly what she wanted.
According to the eunuch, He Wan was a beauty given by Luo Ling to Xiao Moyan. Legend has it that Luo Ling never takes back a gift, and if Xiao Moyan sends He Wan back, it would be like asking for her life.
It is unknown when, where, and how He Wan overheard Luo Ling's plot to poison Ji Xingzhi through Luo Bai, and used this as a condition to stay in the Regent's Palace and save his life.
