Chapter 37: The Dark Ghost in My Heart



Fang Haiyang looked down and didn't see any bugs in the wine glass, but Mu Qishan's words were enough to make him sick.

He picked up Muqishan's wine glass and took a big sip.

Mu Qishan breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the Ninth Prince's conspiracy did not succeed.

If the prince of the Duke's Mansion was poisoned and died at the autumn banquet, I'm afraid everyone present today would not be able to escape responsibility.

He found a chance when no one was paying attention and poured out the poisoned wine.

Poisoning in public!

The Ninth Prince is so vicious!

No wonder he could do such a shameless thing as stealing the credit for the Seventh Prince's achievements during the Autumn Hunt.

When he finds an opportunity, I will kill him mercilessly.

Taking Chu Li's life as a stepping stone for the Mu family to seek refuge with the Duke's Mansion can be considered a worthy death for him.

Everyone was feasting, chatting, appreciating flowers, reciting poems, and having a great time.

But, somehow, Fang Haiyang suddenly felt hot.

It's so hot.

He grabbed his neck, scratched his waist, and tugged at his collar four or five times. He felt as if hundreds of bugs were crawling inside his body. It was itchy and hot and very unbearable.

"ah……"

It feels so uncomfortable.

What's wrong with him?

Fang Haiyang held the railing and swayed a few steps. He felt that the people, flowers and scenery in front of him were all blurry. There were five big suns in the sky, scorching him.

No wonder it’s so hot!

He untied his belt, took off his clothes hastily, and unbuttoned his pants...

"ah!!"

A noble lady suddenly screamed and pointed to the other side of the pond in panic.

Everyone looked over.

I saw that Master Fang had taken off all his clothes, and his trousers were pulled down to his knees, revealing his ugly fat body, which made all the daughters and maids horrified:

“Ahh! Oh my god!”

"rogue!"

When the young masters saw this situation, they almost dropped their jaws in shock.

Everyone was chatting happily, how could Master Fang... In broad daylight, with dozens of rich ladies present, was he going to ruin the reputation of all the ladies?

How are they going to get married in the future?

Aunt Chang Pei came over immediately, her expression changed drastically: "Master Fang!"

filthy!

It's really filthy!

He is the nephew of Imperial Consort Jing, how could he do something that would damage the family's reputation!

"You guys, hurry up and grab him!"

The two servants rushed forward, but as soon as they grabbed Fang Haiyang's hand, he shook it away forcefully:

"Get lost! Don't touch me!"

He spread his legs, waved his trouser waistband, and laughed wildly, "Cool! Hahaha, it's really cool, this is how it should be comfortable."

He flicked his hand and threw his pants into the pile of ladies.

“Ahh!”

The ladies were so frightened that they fled in all directions, "Help!"

"Miss, don't look!" The maid hurriedly took off her coat and covered her mistress's face to protect her reputation.

"Prince Fang is chasing us!"

“Oh my god!”

Fang Haiyang opened his arms and flew with the wind:

"It's so cool, I want to fly, hahaha! Come on, let's go together!"

“Ahh!”

"Go away! Go away!"

The ladies were screaming and running away. The crowd was crowded and people stepped on their skirts and shoes, and soon a bunch of them fell to the ground.

Fang Haiyang laughed loudly and was about to throw himself into the group of noble ladies.

Aunt Changpei's eyes went dark and she almost thought that everything was over, but then a figure suddenly appeared, nimbly kicked Fang Haiyang over, twisted his hands, and quickly pinned him to the ground.

"Ladies, please turn your back! Come on, help hold him down!"

"Major General Qin!"

Everyone saw a life-saving straw.

Master Fang suddenly went crazy, but because of his noble status, no one dared to act rashly. Now that Young General Qin was here, they all rushed over.

He reached out and immediately discovered the problem:

"Prince Fang's temperature is abnormal, something is wrong!"

“Let me go! Let me go… It’s hot, so hot… Don’t press on me, it’s so hot…”

Aunt Changpei strode forward. She had lived in the palace for many years. When she felt his temperature and saw the blurred vision in his eyes, she knew he had been poisoned by the drug.

"Take the prince to the cool pavilion over there to cool down, and quickly call a doctor."

She looked at everyone present with a calm and dignified face:

"Why would Master Fang suddenly take Chinese medicine?"

It must be related to this group of people.

"Who murdered him? If he takes the initiative to come forward and confess, there is still room for improvement. Otherwise, if he offends the Duke's Mansion, he will die!"

Everyone looked at each other, not daring to say anything.

For some reason, Mu Qishan's heart tightened and he felt inexplicably uneasy.

"Since no one has admitted it, let's investigate. No one is allowed to leave Lan Ting Xuan until the truth is revealed."

At a command from Aunt Changpei, four doctors were invited to carefully examine today's food, clothes, chairs, and even the pots of chrysanthemums.

Soon, a doctor exclaimed:

"This drink is drugged."

Everyone looked over and said, "Isn't this the glass of wine that Master Fang just drank? No, Master Mu and Master Fang exchanged their glasses..."

Their expressions froze, and they immediately looked towards Muqishan:

"Master Mu, you are so bold that you dare to murder Master Fang!"

Mu Qishan was so frightened that his legs went limp and he almost couldn't stand:

"No, I didn't."

"Just now, it was you who said that a small bug fell into Master Fang's wine glass and exchanged the wine glass with him. We all saw it, the evidence is irrefutable. Do you still want to deny it?"

“We all heard and saw it!”

"That's not the case!" Mu Qishan screamed, "It was the Ninth Prince! It was the Ninth Prince who swapped my wine glass. The Ninth Prince poisoned the glass. I swapped the glass with him to protect Prince Fang."

Chu Li was slightly stunned:

"I?"

She immediately got angry: "Mu Qishan, we usually eat, drink and have fun together, and we are so close. Now that you have gotten into trouble, how can you drag me down with you?"

Mu Qishan’s eyes flickered.

He understood!

When the Ninth Prince changed the wine glasses, he deliberately let him see it, just to make him feel guilty.

He was afraid that the cup was poisoned, and he was worried, so when Master Fang was about to drink, he quickly replaced the poisoned glass with his own.

In fact, he was fooled by the Ninth Prince!

That glass of wine wasn't poisonous at all!

In fact, Chu Li had already put the drug in another glass of wine, taking advantage of his guilty conscience and playing tricks on him... and he, he actually personally brought the drugged wine to give to Master Fang to drink.

It's in public, the evidence is solid, he can't clear himself even if he jumps into the Yellow River!

No wonder... No wonder Chu Li would say that all those who backstab him will be crushed to death one by one.

He has such deep means!

"Mu Qishan, since you said that the Ninth Prince poisoned the cup, where is the poisoned cup of wine?" Qin Muyu asked coldly.

"Wine...wine..."

A servant stood up and said:

"Just now, I saw Master Mu and Master Fang exchange wine glasses, and then they secretly poured the wine behind a pillar."

If you look at it now, there are still wine stains as evidence.

An old doctor stepped forward, tested the wine stain on the ground with a silver needle, smeared a little more, sniffed it under his nose, and said:

"This wine is not poisonous."

Qin Muyu said coldly: "What else do you have to quibble about now? Master Mu, you murdered Prince Fang first, and then slandered the Ninth Prince. Do you know that these two charges are enough to cost you your head?"

Mu Qishan felt dizzy and almost fainted, and rushed forward out of control:

"Ninth Prince, you did it. It was obviously you who did it! Why did you frame me? Explain to them now!"

"Why would I frame you for no reason and not someone else?"

Chu Li pinched her fingertips lightly, the smile in her eyes was like a knife, "Or... Mu Qishan, have you done something to let me down, and are you hiding something in your heart?"
