Chapter 168 People Change



Before she told him the whole truth, he just treated her as a fairy sent by God to help him, and said:

"When I was ten, my master discovered a poison in my body and told me it had been there for at least seven or eight years. I was only two years old at the time, which is the minimum age at which my body can tolerate the poison without dying.

So at that time, my master suspected that the poison in my body was put in by the person closest to me, and asked me to pay attention to everyone around me.

Three months later, Zhang Wei, on my orders, went to Fengyi Palace to deliver something. He accidentally overheard a conversation between my mother and her personal maid. It was then that he discovered the person who had poisoned her was actually my closest and most trusted mother. If Zhang Wei was one of them, he would never have told me such a top-secret secret.

Over the past ten years, I have also gradually developed my own power. Although he doesn't know everything, he at least knows some of it. If he were one of them, how could Murong Qingyu keep me?"

She had always known that Zhang Wei was someone Qian Yeming trusted, ever since she married into the Crown Prince's Mansion. However, she had never known that Zhang Wei was the one who discovered the secret between the Queen and Murong Qingyu. No wonder he trusted him so much.

In her previous life, she had always believed that Zhang Wei was loyal and protective of his master, and she had a good opinion of him. If they had not seen Zhang Wei's true face on the day of their death, she and Ming would probably continue to be deceived by Zhang Wei in this life.

“People change.”

Murong Xiao's words made Qian Yeming frown. He couldn't catch his breath and groaned softly in pain, then immediately clenched his teeth and said nothing more.

Looking at his tightly closed eyes, Murong Xiao continued his movements until all the silver needles had been placed on the corresponding acupuncture points, then he stopped.

She came to several stoves, put out all the fires in them, and gently wiped the sweat off his face and body with a silk scarf. Then she took away his bedding and replaced it with a thin quilt.

After a while, Murong Xiao took out a thin quilt from the cabinet and replaced the thin quilt again.

After a long time, the pain gradually subsided, and Qian Yeming suddenly felt relaxed all over.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw Murong Xiao still sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at him with soft eyes, holding a silk scarf in her hand and wiping his sweat. He instantly felt warm in his heart, and even Zhang Wei's betrayal didn't seem so sad.

Suddenly, Qian Yeming had a thought in his mind: how great it would be if this woman could stay with him like this for the rest of her life!

But he knew that some things can only be encountered by chance. Although Murong Xiao's appearance brought about a change in his current situation, her appearance was too sudden, so sudden that he felt that she was too beautiful to be real.

Therefore, he never thought that she would just appear and stay by his side forever. He rather believed that this woman might be here to help him overcome his tribulation. Once the tribulation was over, she would leave him just as suddenly as she had appeared.

Thinking that she would leave one day, my heart ached and I felt an unbearable tightness in my chest.

Murong Xiao kept watching Qian Yeming. She saw every expression on his face and felt pain in her heart. So if he didn't ask about Zhang Wei, she wouldn't tell him. At worst, she would keep a close eye on this person and kill him immediately if he betrayed her.

"You just said that Zhang Wei betrayed me. Doesn't that mean Murong Qingyu and my mother already know some of my secrets?"
