Chapter 222 Xiao Fushu is a timely rain
The Imperial Master and the eldest lady should be in seclusion at this time, so this matter can only be handled by the third lady.
Upon hearing this, Fuan hurried to get the silver.
At the gate of the Imperial Master's Mansion, more and more people gathered to watch, pointing and talking at the tightly closed gate.
"Is this Princess Regent really so cruel? She won't even save her own cousin?"
"Hey, this is a broken relationship, how can you blame the Regent Princess?"
"But they are blood relatives after all. If someone dies, can the Regent Princess have a clear conscience?"
Just as everyone was talking, Fuan finally came out with the silver.
"What are you arguing about? This is the Imperial Master's residence, not a vegetable market."
The people fell silent instantly, looking at the silver in Fuan's hand with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
Xiao Yiming and his wife were also stunned. Looking at the silver in Fu'an's hand, a hint of ecstasy flashed in their eyes.
"Is this for us?"
Fuan glanced at the two of them coldly.
"This is what I'm giving you. Stop making trouble. Everyone knows that the Crown Prince died from a Southern Xinjiang Gu technique. He was initially inoculated with a Southern Xinjiang love Gu. Right now, the young lady is at a critical juncture in her research on Southern Xinjiang Gu techniques and is close to finding a way to break the Southern Xinjiang love Gu. If you continue to make trouble and disturb the young lady, you won't be able to bear the consequences if the Empress investigates."
The onlookers were instantly in an uproar when they heard this.
"Southern Xinjiang Love Gu? The young lady is actually researching this?"
"I know this person. He's Fu'an, who works for the Imperial Master. From what he said, the Regent Princess should be following the Empress' orders to research the love poison."
"You know, the death of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a source of great worry for the Empress."
Fuan spoke loudly upon seeing this.
"Southern Xinjiang's Gu magic has caused great harm to people. Aside from His Royal Highness, I believe everyone remembers the Yunke Ferry incident. It was also caused by Southern Xinjiang's Gu magic. For the past two years, in order to research Southern Xinjiang's Gu magic and prevent it from using ancient trees to harm our Xuanyuan people, my eldest daughter has been studying ancient texts day and night, often secluded for three or two months. This is for everyone's sake. Please don't deliberately cause trouble, otherwise I will suspect you have ulterior motives."
After hearing Fuan's words, the people started to discuss again.
"No wonder the Princess Regent doesn't go out. It turns out she's doing great things for the country and the people."
Xiao Yiming and his wife were also stunned. Was it the Queen Mother who asked her to study witchcraft?
Is she really studying witchcraft in the Imperial Master's Mansion?
But didn’t that person say that Xiao Fuguang was not in the Imperial Master’s Mansion at all? He thought of that person’s promise.
Xiao Yiming hurriedly reached out to take the silver.
After he took the silver in his hand, he spoke loudly.
"Sir, we haven't seen Fu Guang for over a year. We are his uncle and aunt. Could you please let us go in and see her to thank her for saving her cousin's life?"
After saying that, he stood up and rushed inside.
Fu'an was quick to stop Xiao Yiming and his wife, his face as gloomy as water.
"You two, the young lady is in a critical retreat right now. Any interruption could ruin all her efforts. If you truly want her well, you should take the money and quickly hire a doctor to treat your son, instead of being so unreasonable."
The onlookers were also attracted by this sudden change and cast curious glances.
Some people began to whisper, accusing Xiao Yiming and his wife of being ungrateful.
"Haven't you already given them the silver?"
Thinking of what that person said, Xiao Yiming tried his best to rush in.
"Fuguang, come out and see your second uncle. He just wants to thank you. He has no other intentions. Come out quickly. Are you in the government office or not?"
"Second uncle went to the Marquis' Mansion but you were not there. I went to the Regent's Mansion but I didn't see you either. Now I've come to the Imperial Master's Mansion but I still don't see you. Could it be that you are still not in the Imperial City..."
The Imperial Master was right, they didn’t come here for the money at all. It seemed there was someone behind them, Fu’an shouted angrily.
"Shut up! Our young lady is studying the Southern Border Gu Arts under the orders of the Empress. Are you deliberately disturbing her by doing so, intending to go against the Empress' wishes?"
He didn't want to get involved in this mess, but Fu Nian was still in that man's hands, so Xiao Yiming had already done whatever he wanted.
"Xiao Fuguang, as the regent princess, you are not in the palace to take care of the palace affairs. Instead, you are staying with the Imperial Master in the Imperial Master's residence. Could it be that you are having an affair with the Imperial Master..."
This is simply nonsense. The Imperial Master's Mansion has always been respected by people. How can Fu'an handle such a thing? His face was full of anxiety.
"You are just making trouble..."
"Come here, drag these two away, drag them far away."
Mrs. Xiao's eyes were filled with jealousy and hatred.
"Xiao Fuguang, you are not a faithful wife. Even after getting married, you are still having an affair with your own master..."
Suddenly a carriage came galloping.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, everyone..."
The onlookers hurriedly made way.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Xiao Fushu jumped off.
Looking at Xiao Yiming and the other man who were making trouble, Xiao Fushu's eyes were cold.
My sister’s punishment for them was too light. She should have killed them directly.
These two evils.
Hurrying forward.
"Second Uncle, Second Aunt, aren't you in your hometown? Why did you suddenly come to the Imperial City? Now that you're here, why don't you come to the Marquis' Mansion to see me?"
As she spoke, she reached out and held Xiao Yiming's arm.
"Second uncle, my sister is already married. I am the head of the mansion now. If you encounter any problems, please come to me. How can you disturb my sister?"
"What's more, the Crown Prince's death from poisoning has always been a source of worry for the Empress. My sister has been ordered to research Gu arts. This is a well-known fact. How can you, as family members, disturb her at this critical juncture when she is about to thoroughly study Gu arts?"
"I know that my second uncle and second aunt are definitely not the kind of people who would kill the entire Xiao family. Is someone threatening you and deliberately causing trouble to prevent my sister from studying witchcraft?"
"Who could it be? Oh my God, Uncle and Aunt, are you guys being controlled by people from Southern Xinjiang?"
Amber also understood and went to pull Mrs. Xiao.
How did Xiao Fushu appear? I don't know why? Looking at Xiao Fushu's current appearance, it was like seeing Xiao Fuguang who wanted to break off the relationship. Xiao Yiming couldn't help but feel scared.
"I…………"
Xiao Fushu didn't give him a chance to speak. He dragged him towards the carriage while speaking.
"Someone, quickly take my badge and go to the palace to tell the Empress that my second uncle and second aunt appear to have been poisoned by the Southern Xinjiang Gu technique. My sister cannot be disturbed during her critical research on Gu techniques. Please ask the imperial physician to leave the palace."
Soon, the servants of the Xiao family came to help and pulled Xiao Yiming and Madam Xiao Er into the carriage.
Madam Xiao Er struggled.
“We don’t have…”
But he was blocked in the mouth.
Xiao Fushu turned around and looked at everyone.
"Uncles, brothers, and sisters-in-law, I believe everyone still remembers the Yunke Ferry incident. Please disperse and go home. I believe anyone with eyes can see that the Xiao family's second branch's behavior today is extremely abnormal. Someone is trying to stop my sister from studying Gu magic."
After saying that, he got on the carriage and saw Xiao Yiming and Madam Xiao Er sobbing and struggling.
“Wuwuwu… Wuwuwu…”
Xiao Fushu pulled out a dagger and put it on Xiao Yiming's neck, his eyes full of murderous intent.
"How dare you slander and hurt my sister."
