Chapter 289 Being Used



"Miss, you really are guilty, that's why you want to destroy this letter! What a pity!"

Ni Yueshan squinted his eyes and approached him, without asking why...

"Come out!" The butler shouted to the dark night sky outside the house, and immediately a guard in palace uniform flew down.

Surprise flashed in Ni Yueshan's eyes, and the housekeeper became even more proud.

"In order to prevent the shadow guards around you from noticing anything, I deliberately arranged for someone with strong martial arts skills to hide nearby to prevent you from attacking me!"

The butler walked out proudly. Qingfeng gently waved his hand, and half of the sword was extended. The sharp blade with a white glow was against the butler's neck.

"Letter!" Qingfeng reminded him in a cold voice, looking at him with cold eyes.

The butler was not afraid at all: "Even if I die, my faith will remain!"

As the two sides were in a stalemate, a person walked out of the darkness. It was Ren Mei.

Seeing this scene, Ren Mei's eyes flashed with surprise: "Miss, the sorcerer is here!"

"Okay, I'll go right away!" Ni Yueshan reached out to take the letter. The palace guard reacted very quickly and threw a dart. Ni Yueshan was surprised for a moment, and Qingfeng immediately took Ni Yueshan and dodged away.

The housekeeper took the opportunity to run away from Xu Yuan.

Ni Yueshan steadied himself, and the two of them fled quickly.

Qingfeng's face was filled with guilt: "It was my useless subordinates who let him escape!"

"It's okay. Since this is a play they designed, there must be flaws. Let's go and meet them!"

She had only taken a few steps when Qingdie came up to her: "Miss, there is nothing suspicious in the housekeeper's room..."

*

The housekeeper hurried to Ni Yueshuang's room. Ni Gaofei was standing by the bed, watching the servant pour the medicine into Ni Yueshuang's mouth. He asked anxiously, "After drinking it, is it possible to save the child?"

The doctors still looked worried: "The medicine needs to work! At the moment, it seems like it's too late!"

Ni Gaofei's brows were tightly furrowed, he was still anxious, and the housekeeper came to Ni Gaofei.

"Master, I went to the young lady's room and found that the military doctor had committed suicide. A letter was found in his arms! Before he died, he testified that it was the young lady who wanted to kill him."

He took out the letter, Ni Gaofei took it and quickly scanned it——

"I have been practicing medicine for decades, always using my skills to save lives. But this time, I used my medical skills to harm others. I am ashamed, so I will die to apologize."

There were still some unclear points in the letter, so Ni Gaofei glanced at the butler.

The housekeeper speculated, "Before he died, he said it was the eldest lady who wanted to kill him! Perhaps the eldest lady threatened him with a curse using her medical skills, and his conscience was condemned, so he committed suicide."

After saying this, the butler sighed, "Young lady is too vicious. She cast a black magic on Mingyan, and she became the murderer. Once the military doctor dies, the black magic can be blamed on him."

"The military doctor is still breathing, otherwise I wouldn't have reacted. I really thought the murderer was the military doctor, but the military doctor and Concubine Shuang have no grudges! How could it be him!"

Ni Gaofei clenched the letter in his hand. The blood on the letter had not yet dried. The man had died unjustly not long ago...

Ni Gaofei was still lost in thought when he heard footsteps outside the house. It was Ni Yueshan who came over with two maids.

"Dad, has the black magic been lifted?"

Ni Gaofei didn't turn around to look, but remained silent.

And the letter appeared in Ni Gaofei's hands...

Ni Yueshan narrowed her eyes. Before she could speak, the housekeeper immediately demanded, "Miss, why don't you explain? When I entered Doctor He's room, why were there only footprints from you, Qingdie, and Doctor Ren Meijia? Did one of you kill the doctor?"

Ni Yueshan was not surprised by his words at all. She simply asked calmly, "Even if Doctor He really died in my hands, what does it have to do with you?"

"Miss, this has nothing to do with this old servant, but it does with the Prime Minister's Mansion! In this letter, he personally admitted that it was Doctor He who cast the black magic! But Doctor He was brought back by you from the military camp, and he has no grudge against Concubine Shuang!"

"Since there is no hatred, why would you harm others? Unless it was you who ordered it or coerced it!"

"Dad, can you let me see the letter?" Ni Yueshan looked at Ni Gaofei. Ni Gaofei had his back to her and didn't even want to look at her.

Ni Gaofei stretched out his hand, Qingdie quickly took the letter and handed it to Ni Yueshan.

Ni Yueshan took it, scanned it, and kept silent.

After the sorcerer was busy for a while, a bug crawled out from Mingyan's hair and then flew into the small cup in the sorcerer's hand.

The sorcerer explained, "This Gu uses silver needles to open acupuncture points and can be planted in a person's brain. It will cause a person to lose control of their emotions and act madly. But if you drop it at the same time and instruct her to target one person, combined with this Gu, the person who is hit by the sorcerer will stare at the target until they die!"

He moved aside. Mingyan no longer struggled desperately to break free from the ropes. She lowered her head weakly, as if she had fainted from weakness.

This time, it has to be said that Ni Yueshan has not yet found the fatal flaw.

During this period, the people who had the most contact with Mingyan were her and Doctor He. There were indeed no footprints inside and outside the doctor's room except those of her, Qingdie and others, and there was also personal testimony from the doctor.

"Prime Minister, if you want to ask this maid anything, you only need a basin of cold water to wake her up. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first!"

"Come here, take this master to the living room to rest for a while, and send him back when it's daybreak!"

The sorcerer was taken away, and then the servants brought a basin of water and poured it on Mingyan.

Mingyan slowly opened her eyes. She had dark circles under her eyes and looked very unwell.

Ni Yueshan looked at her, walked up to her and asked, "Mingyan, how do you feel?"

Mingyan glanced around in confusion and found that she was tied up. She said in panic: "Miss, Master, what is going on? What did I do wrong?"

Before Ni Gaofei and Ni Yueshan could say anything, the housekeeper said coldly, "What's the matter? You caused Shuangpin to have abdominal pain and bleeding!"

Mingyan looked puzzled: "Shuangpin? Who is Shuangpin? I don't know her!"

During this period, Mingyan has been recuperating in her room. She did not ask about the affairs of the mansion, and no one told her, so naturally she did not know who Shuangpin was!

The housekeeper seemed to have grasped some clue and quickly said, "Master, listen to this! She has no idea who Shuangpin is, which means she doesn't know she's returned home. If she didn't know this, why would she rush straight into the main hall and hurt Shuangpin? Isn't this someone using a spell?"

Ni Gaofei frowned and questioned Mingyan, "Who have you been in contact with during this period? Has anyone touched your head or given you acupuncture?"
