It was an extremely embarrassing thing that so many people in the mansion were taken away and I was also confined to my house.
Furthermore, Mrs. Ling Er saw that her wet nurse, who had been with her for decades, was taken away as a prisoner. She was furious and was worried about what she would have to endure in the prison. She vented all her anger on Ling Xiang:
"You're such a jerk, Ling Xiang! The master and I have painstakingly raised you for over a decade, and yet you dare to invite a wolf into your home, bringing shame to the Zhenguo Marquisate!"
Ling Xiang asked back, "No fly bites an egg without cracks. I just want justice for myself. Second Aunt is so upset. Could it be that the poisoning is really related to her?"
"How dare you talk back!" Mrs. Ling raised her hand and slapped Ling Xiang in the face.
Ling Xiang raised her face, revealing the rash that had begun to break out. "If Second Aunt isn't afraid of getting poisoned, you can just hit me hard and try."
Mrs. Ling Er was disgusted by the dense rash and really didn't dare to take the risk herself. She withdrew her hand angrily and glared at Ling Xiang fiercely. Her eyes couldn't bear it anymore and moved away.
Mr. Ling couldn't bear to watch this anymore, so he ordered the maid to take the second lady back to rest, and said to Ling Xiang:
"Xiang'er, do you know that no one in the capital wants to be involved with Shuntian Prefecture..."
Without waiting for Master Ling to lecture him, Ling Xiang asked bluntly, "Is it because you feel guilty?"
"Who taught you to talk to your elders like that?" Master Ling waved his sleeves in anger. "It's all my fault for not teaching you well. A hundred years from now, how will I face my elder brother and sister-in-law?"
"My second uncle has worked so hard to manage the Marquis Zhenguo Mansion and has worried about my future. I think he will have a clear conscience when he sees my parents a hundred years from now, right?" Ling Xiang's question hit the soul.
Mr. Ling was furious, but he couldn't show it. Fortunately, people from the Prince Qin's Mansion came and broke the deadlock between them.
The commotion at the Marquis Zhenguo's Mansion was quite big and attracted a lot of onlookers. When the people from the Prince of Qin's Mansion arrived, they happened to meet the people from Shuntian Mansion who had just left. After asking around, they learned that something big had happened at the Marquis Zhenguo's Mansion.
Ling Xiang touched his face and said apologetically, "I'm afraid you've all come here for nothing. I really don't want to offend the Princess and the King of Qin..."
The leader was Nanny Gui, the head of the Princess's household. Seeing that Ling Xiang's skin, exposed beneath her veil, was covered in rashes, some of which were even broken, it was horrifying to look at, so she said:
"I will definitely inform the Princess of Miss Ling's condition. Miss Ling, take care of yourself. I'll take my leave."
After returning, Nanny Gui told the princess what she had seen and heard in the Marquis Zhenguo's Mansion today.
The eldest princess was surprised and asked, "Is her face really ruined?"
"She was infected with 'Faceless' and didn't take the antidote in time. It's hard to say what will happen to Miss Ling's face." Nanny Gui said truthfully.
The eldest princess carefully arranged the flowers she had just placed in the vase. "Ling Xiang was first kidnapped, and then poisoned and disfigured. This is too much of a coincidence."
"The eldest princess suspects who did this?" Nanny Gui pointed in the direction of Gao Zhenzhen's residence.
"She even dared to kidnap someone in Yu'er's room. Is there anything she can't do?" The eldest princess took a pair of scissors and cut off the extra branches in the vase. "We can't keep this girl any longer!"
"But as for the prince..." Nanny Gui was worried.
"Yu'er has been bewildered by her and can't see her true face. As his mother, I have to think more about him and clear this obstacle for him."
"I'm afraid that the prince won't understand the princess's good intentions and will become estranged from you."
"Hasn't the mastermind behind Ling Xiang's poisoning been identified yet? Go and secretly help Yuan Zhengqing. I believe that with his character, he will not hesitate to take the King of Qin into consideration and will bring Gao Zhenzhen, the mastermind, to justice."
The princess trimmed the branches and put down her scissors. "Go, ask the imperial physician to see Miss Ling, and give her the detoxification pill that my brother gave me last year."
Aunt Gui was quite surprised: "Ling Xiang must have done great deeds in her past life to deserve such protection from the princess."
"I hope she won't disappoint me."
…
Gao Zhenzhen didn't know that the eldest princess had already decided to kill her, and was now eagerly waiting for news from the eldest princess.
The maid Ping'er came back quickly, a smile of obvious joy on her face. "Miss, good news! Ling Xiang didn't come to the mansion to study today. It's said she was poisoned and disfigured. I went to find out. The poison she was poisoned with is called 'Facelessness'. She will be an ugly monster from now on. She will never be able to compete with you for the position of King Qin again."
Gao Zhenzhen was very surprised: "God is helping me! Come on, follow me to find the prince!"
Nangong Yu also received the news from the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion, and his expression did not change at all: "How could someone plot against her?"
Chen Long, who was standing by, jokingly said, "She was chosen for you by the eldest princess, don't you feel bad for her?"
Nangong Yu picked up the official document and reviewed it, looking as if it had nothing to do with him: "It just happened to stop my mother's thoughts."
"That's a matter that affects the girl's life. Aren't you too heartless?"
Nangong Yu glanced at him and said, "If you feel bad, you can just marry her."
"Your Highness, are you going to arrange a marriage for Young Master Long?" Gao Zhenzhen came over supporting Ping'er, with a gentle smile on her pale face, which made me feel sorry for her.
Nangong Yu immediately put down the pen in his hand and helped Gao Zhenzhen sit down: "Didn't the doctor tell you to stay in bed and rest."
Gao Zhenzhen lowered her eyes shyly: "I haven't seen your prince for a day, Zhenzhen misses you very much..."
Chen Long really couldn't feel any favor towards this savior of the prince who suddenly appeared more than half a year ago. In addition, Gao Zhenzhen came uninvited and interrupted their conversation casually, showing that she really didn't take the people around the prince seriously. He disliked her even more:
"Since Your Majesty has found a beautiful lady to accompany him, I will no longer be a bother here. Goodbye."
Gao Zhenzhen blamed herself and said, "My Lord, did I disturb you?"
Nangong Yu gently rubbed her hair: "No."
Chen Long was speechless and left quickly.
"Goodbye, Young Master Long." Gao Zhenzhen was more than happy to have the prince all to herself.
Ling Xiang carefully changed Xiaoyu's medicine and returned to the room to study the newly acquired secret book.
When he opened the cover, he saw four big characters written on it: "Feng Ling Xian Jue".
The original book revolves around the internal fighting within the Qin Palace, and does not introduce any magical powers in this world.
In fact, in the original book, after Ling Xiang obtained this secret book, he gave it to Nangong Yu because he could not practice it himself.
Nangong Yu's kung fu has indeed made a qualitative leap after practicing this secret book, but he has not mastered any magical skills.
Ling Xiang raised her eyebrows, thinking that the person who wrote this secret book was arrogant and gave it a domineering name. However, when she turned to the first page and saw the overview of "Feng Ling Xian Jue", she was shocked.
This is actually a magical technique!
This is completely different from what is recorded in the original book!
With doubts, Ling Xiang tried to practice the first level - body training.
