"The Lord of Ten Thousand Gu, strangled his son to death."
Xiao Ruyu slowly read out the above eight words and fell into deep thought.
After she looked through the words in the wordless heavenly book, they disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Disappeared right before our eyes?!
After flipping through the book, it seemed as if the words just now were her hallucination.
But Xiao Ruyu clearly understood that the wordless heavenly book was not an ordinary thing!
And these eight words...
She thought about it carefully and suddenly realized that there was a poisonous insect in Xiao Rujin's body.
From the very beginning, the poisonous insect in his body was extraordinary. Could it be... the Lord of All Poisons!
So that's how it is!
Xiao Ruyu figured it out instantly. No wonder the poison in Eleven's body had no effect. It turned out that it was because he encountered Xiao Rujin.
In other words, the poison in his body was...
I was scared to death.
As soon as this thought came to her mind, she couldn't help laughing out loud.
Although it is absurd, this matter is indeed written in the wordless heavenly book.
Eleven heard her chuckle and came over, "What's going on?"
Xiao Ruyu recounted to him what she had just seen and saw that he was also very confused.
"There is actually such a poisonous insect..."
“The poisonous insect in Eleven’s stomach,” he looked down at his abdomen and scratched his head, “was it eaten in vain?”
[At the moment, this is the case.]
Xiao Ruyu nodded and summoned some spiritual power to force the poisonous insect out of his stomach.
Eleven retched and spat out a mouthful of black water. The worm had already died in his stomach.
A fishy smell filled the air. Xiao Ruyu covered her mouth and nose and quickly pulled Eleven out.
Now that the insect was dead, she was completely relieved.
When I returned to the Queen's Palace, I did not see Queen Duan.
Xiao Ruyu called the servant nearby and asked, only to find out that she had gone to the inner kitchen.
In the inner kitchen.
[Mother, you are pregnant, so don’t do these things yourself. ]
As soon as she stepped into the small kitchen, she saw Queen Duan holding her waist slightly and taking out a plate of cakes in her hand.
Xiao Ruyu hurried forward and took the pastry from her hand, looking very worried.
Queen Duan touched her face with a smile, "Don't worry, Yu'er, it's just some snacks."
"I heard that something happened in the previous dynasty, and the emperor summoned all the ministers to discuss the matter early in the morning."
"I just thought of making some snacks and sending them to your father."
[Something happened in the previous dynasty? What happened? ]
When Xiao Ruyu heard that it was about the previous dynasty, he couldn't help but ask about it again.
Seeing her curious look, Queen Duan scolded her, "Yu'er is very curious, but I don't know about the things of the previous dynasty."
"Your father must have been working hard for half a day. I will send some snacks to him now."
She was about to leave when Xiao Ruyu grabbed her clothes.
[Mother——I want to go too! ]
Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Just as he reached the palace gate, Xiao Ru'an came out hurriedly with his head down and almost bumped into Xiao Ruyu.
【Big Brother——】
She cried out in a soft voice and threw herself into his arms.
Xiao Ru'an picked up Xiao Ruyu, and the corners of his lips slightly raised, "Why is the little princess here?"
"Now is not the time to reminisce about the past. Your Majesty has things to do."
Seeing his anxious face, Xiao Ruyu put her arms around his neck and asked.
What happened?
Queen Duan interrupted and said, "Since my pastries have been delivered, I will go back first."
"Yu'er, remember to return to the palace early."
She knew very well that the harem was not allowed to interfere in government affairs, so she put on her clothes and left.
After Queen Duan left, Xiao Ru'an began to narrate the incident without any hesitation.
"Something happened in the south." He sighed and said helplessly, "Several mines collapsed innocently, involving the names of many ordinary people, with countless casualties."
"That's fine, the most important thing is..."
Xiao Ru'an lowered his voice, feeling extremely anxious.
"This matter also involves local officials who secretly forged weapons."
[Forging weapons privately? Isn't that a rebellion?! ]
Xiao Ruyu spoke in her heart, and Xiao Ru'an was so scared that she quickly covered her mouth. It took her a moment to realize that she didn't make a sound.
After withdrawing his hand awkwardly, he frowned and looked unsightly.
"This is a matter of great importance. Father specially sent my eldest brother to investigate this matter."
"Little Princess, my brother is leaving first."
Xiao Ru'an stood up and prepared to leave, but Xiao Ruyu grabbed his sleeve.
There was worry in her eyes and her little hands were tightly holding him.
[Big brother, please be careful on this trip. 】
[Since this group dared to forge weapons privately, they might be a group of desperate criminals...]
Xiao Ruyu was really worried about him.
Xiao Ru'an pressed down her hand, squatted down and touched her little head, "Don't worry, little princess, the emperor will be careful and return safely."
Seeing his confident look, Xiao Ruyu didn't want to say anything to spoil the fun.
When Xiao Ru'an turned his back and left, she slightly mobilized a spiritual power with her wrist and hit him on the chest.
An invisible barrier enveloped Xiao Ru'an. This was the life-saving talisman she gave him!
[Big brother, have a safe journey. This spiritual power will save your life when necessary.]
Xiao Ruyu looked at his back getting farther and farther away, muttering to herself, then stepped into the hall.
"I just heard the Queen's voice. Why didn't she come in with the little princess?"
Emperor Shangwen in the hall saw Xiao Ruyu coming in and looked up and asked.
[Mother has been very sleepy these past few days, so she should have gone back to rest.]
Xiao Ruyu happily handed over the pastries made by Queen Duan and pointed at the pastries.
"Daddy, try it. Mom made it herself."
Emperor Shang Wen took a piece of cake and put it into his mouth, praising it highly, "The Queen's cooking skills are still as good as ever."
He held Xiao Ruyu on his lap and spoke meaningfully.
"The Queen has been working hard these days. Yu'er should try not to make her angry."
Seeing Xiao Ruyu nod heavily, he picked up the tea on the table and put it into his mouth with satisfaction.
A familiar smell came, Xiao Ruyu was stunned, and looked down at the tea leaves.
The tea soup is rich, sticky and sweet, with a hint of medicine.
This tea...isn't it made from the herbs in Yaowang Valley?
Xiao Ruyu would definitely not have smelled it wrong. The herbs in the Medicine King Valley had a unique medicinal fragrance, mixed with traces of spiritual power.
"Daddy, what are you drinking?"
She interrupted Emperor Shangwen from pouring tea into his mouth, and her words sounded a little anxious.
Emperor Shangwen looked down at the tea in confusion and replied disapprovingly, "I drink the refreshing tea prescribed by Imperial Doctor Yang every day. What's wrong with that?"
Xiao Ruyu swallowed the words and jumped off his legs. After thinking it over again and again, she couldn't help but open her mouth to remind him.
"Daddy, don't work too hard. Drinking too much refreshing tea is not good for the dragon body."
Emperor Shangwen put down the tea and said comfortingly.
"I drink it often, it's nothing serious, don't worry."
After coming out of the Yangxin Palace, Eleven saw that Xiao Ruyu looked unwell and asked with concern.
"Little princess, this tea has made you so worried."
"Could it be that the refreshing tea has some disadvantages?"
