After Yan Xiwan was warned by Chu Xuan, she disappeared and no one cared where she went.

The next day, Lu Yanluo distributed temporary relief antidote to the people as agreed.

The condition of the people in the city gradually improved. Chu Xuan bought a candied haws for Lu Yanluo, as if presenting a treasure, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Yanluo, now we just need to wait until they reveal their flaws."

Lu Yanluo took the candied haws and looked a little disgusted: "You didn't poison me, did you?"

"Am I crazy?" Chu Xuan joked indifferently.

Only then did Lu Yanluo try to take a bite.

[Wow! This is so sweet! ]

[Tanghulu made from hawthorn can be so sweet! ]

After thinking so much, and feeling that Chu Xuanquan could hear it, she turned her head to look at Chu Xuan.

Unexpectedly, the latter was staring at the string of candied haws in a daze and didn't pay any attention to what he was saying.

"Chu Xuan?"

Chu Xuan suddenly came to his senses, and after a while he laughed at himself: "I lost my composure."

He said calmly, "Yecheng was my mother's favorite place before she entered the palace. Fifteen years ago, Yecheng was still very prosperous. It was the most prosperous town besides the capital. It was also here that my mother met a local young man. The two of them became close friends because of their friendship and similar interests."

After hearing this, Lu Yanluo had already anticipated what would happen next.

"The emperor today is petty and will not tolerate this."

Chu Xuan sneered, "Of course he didn't tolerate it. After my mother entered the palace, this man in Yecheng was inexplicably executed along with his entire family, and Yecheng began to decline. Until my mother's accident fifteen years ago, Yecheng completely fell into decline and had no vitality. Only the villagers who moved in from other places were left, barely making a living by farming to maintain the existence of Yecheng."

Lu Yanluo suddenly realized something and said without any context, "So this is why you want to save the people of Yecheng?"

Chu Xuan nodded: "It can be regarded as an emotional sustenance. I don't want Yecheng to disappear because of the plague."

Lu Yanluo was filled with emotion.

[From his few words, I can already tell how outstanding a woman Concubine Yun was in her past. Marrying this bastard emperor is like a flower stuck in cow dung.]

[The more I get to know Chu Xuan, the more I feel that he is not as hateful as before. ]

[But why did you like Yan Xiwan so much before? You made me feel so wronged! ]

Chu Xuan immediately argued, "No! I lived in the Yan family for a while when I was a child. At that time, someone used a poisonous snake to harm me. It was Xiwan... Yan Xiwan saved my life. After so many years, I have repaid her."

A strange look flashed across Lu Yanluo's eyes, and she suddenly asked, "Did you encounter a poisonous snake when you were a child? How old were you two at that time?"

"About seven or eight years old."

Chu Xuan didn't know why she asked this question and his eyes were full of confusion.

Lu Yanluo just sneered: "With Yan Xiwan's character, when she was seven or eight years old, would she dare to catch a poisonous snake to save you?"

Chu Xuan's eyes flickered and his face darkened.

I didn't feel that way before, but after Lu Yanluo said it, something was indeed wrong...

"The witch is here! Come quickly!"

"Just kill her this time, don't waste time talking to her!"

"The witch will bewitch people, everyone must not be fooled by her again!"

Before Chu Xuan could finish his thought, the villagers' shouting was heard again outside.

As soon as Lu Yanluo turned around, the villagers rushed in. It was the same person who had led the riot before, and this time they were carrying several corpses covered with white cloth.

The man pointed at Lu Yanluo and cursed: "Witch! The so-called holy medicine you gave me made the disease worse after I took it. It can't be cured at all! Not only are you a witch, you are also a quack!"

Lu Yanluo stared at him calmly and said slowly: "They didn't get the plague at all, but the poison of Xiaoyao Grass. This poison is easy to cure. It's only an entry-level one in the medical books. Please go out and buy a medical book and read it. You can make the antidote yourself."

The man snorted coldly: "You said it's not a plague, so it's not a plague? You are indeed a witch, misleading people with your lies!"

“Who is the one who is misleading people with these lies?”

Lu Yanluo clapped her hands, and Shen He received the order and brought Yan Xiwan over.

"This Miss Yan was also poisoned by the Xiaoyao grass like all of you. The symptoms are exactly the same as those of the plague, and she also took the antidote I gave her." Lu Yanluo pointed at Yan Xiwan and smiled, "She recovered after taking the antidote, which proves that my antidote is fine. As for what you were fed outside that caused the relapse - that shouldn't be my fault, right?"

The meaning of these words is very clear.

Yan Xiwan had been following them, so her illness was completely cured, proving that her medicine was fine.

If these people's condition worsens outside, it has nothing to do with her.

Unexpectedly, the man snorted again: "This woman is yours, who knows if she is working together to deceive us!"

"That's wrong!" Lu Yanluo was waiting for him to say this, and immediately said, "Yesterday she admitted in public that I was a disaster star and wanted you to burn me to death. How can such a person be mine?"

Once again, the villagers hesitated.

The man who had been arguing with Lu Yanluo was sweating profusely. He had never felt it so difficult to incite the villagers in his life.

Seeing this, Lu Yanluo gave him another strong dose of medicine: "Besides, Xiaoyao grass is not a fatal poison. As long as you take the antidote, you will never be poisoned by Xiaoyao grass again in your life, and there is no possibility of recurrence."

The villagers began to whisper.

"It seems to be what she said. My husband got better after taking the holy medicine and has not had any recurring symptoms."

"My wife too!"

The villagers nearby began to wonder: "Then why are you here shouting and killing?"

The villagers scratched their heads and said, "Aren't we just here to join in the fun? After all, it was said by the master, so we all believe it to some extent."

“…”

This time even Lu Yanluo was speechless, and her eyes almost rolled to the back of her head.

Before she could say anything, the one who led the riot got anxious: "Don't listen to her nonsense! The Forget-Star Grass in the city has been bought out a long time ago. There is not a single one left in the entire Ye City. What are you going to use to make the antidote?"

Lu Yanluo locked her eyes on him and asked word by word, "Forget Star Grass, what is it?"

The man knew he had said something wrong and quickly tried to make amends: "I was just talking nonsense!"

"So you knew that the antidote to Xiaoyao grass is Wangxing grass, and you also knew that Wangxing grass had been bought out. But knowing all this, why did you still believe that I was the witch who caused the plague?"

Lu Yanluo stared at him coldly, her voice full of majesty: "Or is it that you poisoned Yecheng to cause such a big plague? You poisoned me and then bought out the antidote, with the goal of leaving me helpless and finally inciting all the villagers to burn me to death? So to you, the people who died of disease and poison in Yecheng are not important at all. Human lives are worthless, and everything is just a bargaining chip for you to kill me!"
