Chapter 177: A Serpentine Heart Binds Its Way into a Cocoon



Zheng Xian walked up to him and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, that noble lady Mu is trying to pull her old tricks again. We guessed correctly that the Crown Prince's drowning must be related to noble lady Mu. Should we close the net?"

The man turned out to be Zhao Huan. It turned out that he did not go to Nanjing Yingtian Prefecture. Was all this a setup?

Zhao Huan clenched his fist until it turned blue, and slammed it down on the table: "No, wait a moment, I must find out who else is involved!"

Concubine Mu watched Zhao Xin being taken away by the men from the Tiger Yasi with a look of malice in her eyes. Why were both the Empress and Concubine Tang able to conceive and bear children, while her own belly remained sluggish?

Yuanwailang Mu Wengan now walks sideways. As he has become the father-in-law of the emperor, he walks with his head down and looks up at the sky.

His own daughter has become a noble lady and is now in charge of the six palaces. That is even more incredible.

Mu Wengan came to Mengzhuxuan and was whispering with his daughter.

"Daughter, isn't this too risky for us to do?"

Mu Guiren snorted, "How can we achieve great things without taking risks? If it weren't for that Tiger Yasi, we would have succeeded."

Mu Wengan was a little scared: "My daughter, we originally planned to bring the little prince here and send him back to Renming Palace. You said that if we fed the little prince this Western Region Ice Lotus, the cold poison would enter his body for half a month before the toxicity would take effect, and then we could put the blame on the queen. But if anyone finds out, we will be guilty of a heinous crime and our entire clan will be executed."

Concubine Mu's face was filled with venom. "What are you afraid of? This Western Region Ice Lotus is colorless and odorless. After taking it, it will cause the same symptoms as a cold. Even a Daluo Jinxian can't tell. Didn't you see there was a doctor as good as Hua Tuo? He believed that the prince had a cold constitution and the cold poison attacked his heart and died. What are you afraid of? If it weren't for Li Sisi, I would have put the ice lotus in the porridge. Fortunately, she came early and I didn't have time to put it in. Otherwise, I would have had to drink that bowl of porridge by myself."

Mu Wengan wiped his sweat off his forehead and said, "Even if we kill the little prince and depose the queen, it's not certain that it will be your turn to rule the six palaces. Besides, you haven't left any children behind. If they become the wedding dress for someone else, we'll be at a huge loss."

Concubine Mu angrily said, "Humph, my daughter will eventually get pregnant with a dragon son. But if those concubines dare to get pregnant with a dragon seed, I will kill them one by one! Shangshu Zuocheng Cai Mao is a loser. I asked him to send someone to get rid of that vixen Nangong Lian'er, but he just hesitated. As long as this little vixen is not dead, my position in the harem will not be secure."

"Don't forget you still have a Xixia princess and that Tang Cairen. They are also your strong rivals."

Concubine Mu sneered coldly, "Tang Wan'er is just a palace maid, so she's not a threat. Do you really think the Emperor would appoint a Xixia princess as his empress? No, if the Song Dynasty and Xixia go to war, where would this empress go?"
