When the little girl saw the black insects crawling onto her body, she immediately screamed in fear and shook her arms hard, trying to shake them off.
But the black insect seemed to have suction cups on its feet, sticking firmly to her body.
It had already climbed up to her shoulder, and she could even hear the black insects crawling on her body.
The little dumpling immediately got goosebumps all over.
In the critical moment, the little girl suddenly remembered that her uncle, the Prince of the South, had once given her a dragon and tiger jade ring, saying that it was obtained from Yunnan and Tibet and had the effect of repelling mosquitoes and warding off evil spirits.
The little dumpling quickly took out the dragon and tiger jade ring from her neck.
The moment she took out the Dragon and Tiger Jade Ring, the black insects that had already crawled onto her neck turned around as if they had seen something extremely terrifying, and crawled off the little dumpling's body.
They all turned their attention to the raw meat on the ground.
Su Ruiling was startled and immediately ordered her men to burn the worms on the raw meat to death.
Princess Nan had never seen such a bizarre scene before. Her face paled as she cried out, "What the hell is that? How did it crawl out of Mu Ran's mouth?"
The little dumpling touched its heart, looking at the burned insects with lingering fear.
“These are corpse demon worms,” the little dumpling said. “They parasitize the human body and constantly release venom. When the venom accumulates to a certain level, it will cause blood to flow from the seven orifices, and even the pulse and breathing will stop. Then the person will slowly weaken and die.”
The little dumpling recited a long string of words as if reciting a book. These words were written in a medical book in the Hundred Doctors Space, a book on insect poisons written by a Miao master.
The little dumpling looked at the dumbfounded Princess Nan and asked very seriously, "Who told you that someone was performing evil magic in Fuyang Palace?"
Princess Nan opened her mouth subconsciously, but quickly calmed down from her shock.
"Hmph! What does this have to do with you?"
The little dumpling said to the Princess Consort with pity, "Aunt, you've been used!"
"The person who called you here wants you to misunderstand that I harmed Sister Mu Ran, so that they can use you to prevent me from discovering that Sister Mu Ran has been poisoned."
"That way, she can kill Sister Mu Ran and also let you suppress me."
For the first time, the little girl felt that her aunt was not quite right in the head, as she was so easily manipulated.
After listening to the little dumpling's words, Princess Nan also began to recall what had happened.
She did receive a strange letter, and considering her friendship with Princess Zhaochun, she came to her palace to find out what was going on.
Princess Nan's anger flared instantly. What a fearless person! How dare they use her!
"Where did you get that letter from?" Princess Nan asked the servant beside her sharply.
The servants exchanged a glance and shook their heads. "We don't know. The letter was sent by carrier pigeon. We thought it was..."
The servant was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly seemed to realize he was about to let something slip, and quickly shut his mouth.
"Who is it?" The little dumpling stepped forward. From the servant's words, it seemed that the Princess Consort of the South had been exchanging letters with someone by carrier pigeon.
The person who delivered the letter to her today was not the same person as before.
Who has the Princess Consort been communicating with by carrier pigeon? And who is the person who sent her a message today?
The little dumpling suddenly felt as if a huge net had risen around her, and from Mu Ran being poisoned to the Princess Consort of the South, they all harbored secrets.
Princess Nan avoided looking at the little dumpling, and her servants kept their mouths shut, no longer speaking.
"She's awake!"
"Fairy Fuling Fruit!" suddenly shouted.
Having expelled all the Gu worms, Mu Ran slowly opened her eyes.
Upon hearing that Mu Ran had woken up, the little dumpling quickly ran to her side.
Su Ruiling followed behind the little dumpling with worry.
"Sister Mu Ran, are you feeling better?" The little dumpling wanted to ask Mu Ran who had hurt her, but she instinctively asked about her health first.
Mu Ran has returned to normal and is no longer as dazed as before.
Mu Ran smiled at the little dumpling and said weakly, "Thank you."
The little dumpling immediately understood that Mu Ran was telling her that her soul had returned to its place and that the memories of her soul had not been erased.
So Mu Ran regained her senses and remembered the little dumpling.
The little girl was relieved and asked:
"Sister Mu Ran, do you remember who cast the spell on you?"
Mu Ran suddenly grabbed the little dumpling's hand, her emotions running high, her chest heaving violently.
It seems that the person who cast the spell on her was someone of very unusual status.
Mu Ran kept looking at the little dumpling, and tears suddenly welled up in her eyes. As if she had made a huge decision, she closed her eyes tightly and even loosened her grip on the little dumpling's hand.
"It was...it was the imperial physician summoned by Her Majesty the Empress to treat me."
"What? It's him?" Su Ruiling exclaimed in surprise. She immediately ordered Granny Chang, "Go and bring that imperial physician here to me!"
Unlike Su Ruiling's intense reaction, the little dumpling looked at Mu Ran calmly.
The eyes are the windows to the soul, and the little dumpling can always see a lot from a person's eyes.
When Sister Mu Ran looked at her just now, she was trying to tell her who the person who cast the spell was.
But after she chose to close her eyes, she chose to conceal the truth.
The one who actually cast the spell was not the imperial physician at all!
The little dumpling just didn't understand why Mu Ran had lied.
