Chapter 318: Telling Everything You Know



The house was completely dark at the moment, with only a few rays of light coming in, giving the room a creepy feeling.

Nangong Muxi looked around. When he just came in, he could clearly not see anything unusual outside the house. But now, looking from inside the house, he discovered all kinds of cat poop.

All the windows were covered with a layer of black gauze, which blocked out the sunlight. Although the furnishings in the room were normal, there were many objects that were terribly strange. On the bed, Concubine Li was resting with her eyes closed, but her brows were furrowed, and even her sleeping face looked a little eerie.

Ge Yuye said that people who were poisoned by the mother pig were extremely afraid of light, not because the poison would devour them, but because sunlight would help the poisoned mother pig to regain some consciousness. According to Ge Yuye's request, Nangong Muxi carefully sprinkled the powder on himself, and then approached Li Concubine step by step.

At this moment, Concubine Li suddenly opened her eyes. Because Ge Yuye had added a lot of powder that could attract Concubine Li's poison, his approach did not cause Concubine Li to reject him too much. With a confused look in his eyes, he looked at Nangong Muxi and blinked in confusion, then frowned.

"If you want to know some truth, just follow me!" Nangong Muxi nodded at Concubine Li Ce, and looked at her with a firm gaze.

Looking at the person in front of her, Li Cefei felt familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was. The intrusion of this outsider made her suddenly sober. Her first feeling was that something was wrong. Why did she forget everything? Then what was it that she kept remembering in her mind?

After scanning the furnishings in the room, Li Cefei handed her hand to Nangong Muchi decisively, "I don't know who you are, but I know that I don't have much time left to wake up. Please...save me..."

Concubine Li used all her strength to stay sober and finally said the two words "save me". Then, she once again lost consciousness and looked at Nangong Muchi who was holding her hand with a wary look on her face.

"Let's go." Nangong Muxi nodded, quickly pulled her out of the room, but did not forget to leave the door ajar. If someone found out she was missing, they would just think she ran away. Looking around, Concubine Li gradually regained consciousness.

The warm sunlight shone on his body, but the person who could not see the sunlight frowned a little. Then his eyes opened again, without any fierceness but with sadness.

"Concubine Li, there are some things you may not have discovered. How about I take you away and tell you the truth?" Nangong Muxi knew that she was sober at this moment, and thinking of her experience, he was unwilling to ignore her wishes and forcibly take her away, so he could only ask, "You are also tied to the life and death of a person, and you are being used, but you are completely ignorant."

Nangong Muxi's words made Li Cefei's body stiffen, and then she nodded, "I'll go with you. I also want to know what happened to me."

Looking at her resolute face, Nangong Muxi nodded. Even though this woman was being controlled and used, she still maintained her clarity and intelligence.

"Can you use Qinggong?" Nangong Muxi asked.

"Okay, but I need your help." Concubine Li nodded.

The two of them quickly disappeared in the Prince's Mansion. Due to what happened last night, Zhuge Feiyang and Zong Zheng Yunchun had already had some grudges against each other. In addition to the problem with the effectiveness of the medicine, Zong Zheng Yunchun was too weak to get out of bed today. Unfortunately, the arrival of the Emperor could only make things worse. The talented Regent Prince had returned from his mansion last night, and it was not appropriate for him to be sick today. Zong Zheng Yunchun had no choice but to bear it and get up to make arrangements. Naturally, no one in the Prince's Mansion, which was bustling with people coming and going, would remember the movements of Concubine Li who was half-confined in the courtyard.

When the two arrived at the bamboo building, Situ Xunxiao quickly began to get restless because of the snake poison in his body and Li Cefei.

"This..." Concubine Li frowned, but slowly began to become weak and confused. Without the sunlight, the parasite poison in her body began to attack her again.

"It seems that this snake poison is not something that can be cured in a short time." Ge Yuye couldn't help but frowned as he looked at Concubine Li, who looked like this not long after being away from the sun.

"Quick, tie her up." Ge Yuye said hurriedly, "The poison of the snake attracts each other. If we don't stop them, we will be in trouble."

Ge Yuye had not expected that Li Cefei was so deeply poisoned. He gave instructions hurriedly, and his hands were not idle either. He hurriedly applied different potions on the two of them.

After the frenzy of the two had been suppressed by the effects of the potion, Ge Yuye finally had the leisure to start taking Concubine Li's pulse. He frowned as he saw the different shades of color that the potion had brought out on her body.

"It seems that it is impossible to use the snake poison to get information from them. We can only remove the poison from them and then ask them." Ge Yuye looked solemnly at the two people and spoke slowly, "If the snake poison really takes effect, I'm afraid these two people will bleed from all seven orifices and die."

Hearing this, Zong Zheng Xiaoting's heart suddenly tightened, and she held the hand of Situ Xunxiao who was sleeping, with a strong force. Her slightly trembling hands showed her fear. She just thought that Situ Xunxiao was thick-skinned and would only suffer a little pain, but she didn't expect it to be so terrible.

"All of you go guard outside. If the insect poison comes out, you will be attached to the insects if you are not careful." Ge Yuye said solemnly, "Also, spread this around the bamboo building."

Ge Yuye handed a gourd of reed medicine powder to Nangong Muchi, but he was still muttering to himself that he regretted wasting the medicine powder that he had spent half a year refining.

The people present did not dare to delay, and had to hurriedly follow Ge Yuye's request and wait outside the bamboo building. Those who did not know the situation inside could only hear the painful cries coming from outside from time to time.

Half an hour later, the bamboo door opened again, and everyone in the room regained consciousness. Situ Xunxiao sat there with a sullen face, and the danger in his eyes was frightening. And Li Cefei, who was completely sober, also had a face full of anger.

"Concubine Li, how are you?" Nangong Muxi smiled at her. This was the first formal meeting she had had since she finally woke up.

"Thank you, Prince Regent, for saving me." Concubine Li nodded slightly, with gratitude in her eyes. This person seemed neither humble nor arrogant. "Your Highness took the risk to take Li Qi away. No matter what the reason was, you saved me. In return, Li Qi will tell you everything he knows!"
