Chapter 367 Who is the mantis, and who is the oriole?
When the carriage arrived at Ziyun Temple, Yuan Wanru waved to the driver.
The coachman was actually Xuan Ying.
Xuan Ying looked at Yuan Wanru with great concern: "Madam..."
Yuan Wanru smiled with great ease, as if she were truly a worshipper who had come to offer incense.
"Let's go, I'll stay here tonight, and you can pick me up early tomorrow morning."
Xuan Ying: ...
Where does this confidence come from, to come and go as it pleases?
However, Xuan Ying inexplicably felt that the Crown Prince's wife was actually quite capable.
"it is good."
"If things get really critical, remember to give the signal, and I will come right away."
Yuan Wanru nodded, turned around and entered Ziyun Temple without looking back.
Ziyun looked quite normal; there was nothing unusual about her.
Yuan Wanru walked straight in and strolled around the Ziyun Temple, looking relaxed and carefree, which surprised those who were secretly watching her.
When they finally reached a side room, someone suddenly floated down behind Yuan Wanru: "Come with me."
A man with a hoarse voice and not particularly tall, his face covered, held a dagger to Yuan Wanru's side.
Yuan Wanru turned around and looked at him nonchalantly: "I've been gone for a while now, and I don't want to go anymore. Have Liang Yusong come to see me, or have the Second Prince come to see me."
The man in black sneered, "Do you think this is the Marquis of Zhongyong's residence?"
"Stop talking nonsense, or I'll chop off one of your hands."
Anyway, once today is over, this woman will definitely die.
However, Miss Liang hated this woman so much that she had to torture her in person and vent her anger before she would kill her.
Otherwise, the man in black would have killed her with a single blow right now.
Yuan Wanru's eyes were full of mockery: "Cut him down, let Murong Xiao be a eunuch for life. The poison he was poisoned was made by me."
"Go ask him what it's like to be unable to have sex, what it's like to be a useless person."
“I dare say that no one but me can cure his poison. He doesn’t even have a son yet. If one day he really gains this vast empire, but there is no one to carry on the legacy, wouldn’t that be a tragedy?”
"Do you dare to kill me?"
The man in black was surprised that Yuan Wanru would say such a thing.
Consort Liang in the palace issued a strict order: the expert in using poison and witchcraft around Lu Jiangnian must be found and killed to prevent future troubles.
Unexpectedly, this "he" was actually Lu Jiangnian's wife.
"Words are meaningless; do you think I believe you?"
Yuan Wanru looked him up and down and said, "How about I have you keep Murong Xiao company and pretend to be a man together? Then you'll know whether I'm trustworthy or not."
"I poisoned not only Murong Xiao, but also Liang Yusong."
"Go and pass on the message. I'm waiting for them to come see me."
"Murong Xiao has lofty ambitions. My death doesn't matter to me. The key question is, do you dare to kill me?"
The man in black gripped the dagger in his hand tightly.
He dare not.
This was a major concern for their master. Since he was poisoned, outsiders didn't know, but how could his trusted confidants not know Murong Xiao's anger and helplessness?
Gao Peng had no way to help Murong Xiao out of this predicament.
"You wait."
With that, he turned to leave.
Yuan Wanru stopped him, saying, "Don't rush, I have one more thing to say. Tell them that I'm not joking about Liang Zhong."
“I’m already here. If Sun Haining can’t return to the Sun family smoothly, the young master Sun will strike with his knife, and even a god couldn’t save Liang Zhong from being reduced to two ounces of flesh.”
The man in black twitched the corners of his mouth.
This woman, supposedly a lady from a respectable family and a wealthy socialite, how can she speak so crudely and without restraint?
"understood."
The man in black turned around, but Yuan Wanru called him back.
"Wait a minute, I'm thirsty and hungry. Have someone bring me something to eat. It has to be something I like, otherwise I won't have the strength to detoxify Murong Xiao."
Man in black:……
I thought it would be a very easy job, but I didn't expect to encounter a woman who didn't play by the rules.
"understood."
These three words were spoken with great gritted teeth.
The man in black turned around, but Yuan Wanru called out to him again.
"What on earth are you going to do!"
So long-winded.
Yuan Wanru smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to remind you to hurry back."
The man in black's eyes blazed with fury: This woman is definitely doing this on purpose.
The two stared at each other in the corridor. Yuan Wanru looked at the man in black with great pleasure and asked, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
The man in black only wished he could kill her with a single blow.
He snorted coldly, turned to leave, and then cautiously glanced back, afraid that Yuan Wanru might cause some trouble again and call him back.
As a result, Yuan Wanru had already gone into the side room and sat down without turning her head.
……
I'm very depressed.
-
Murong Xiao was shocked when he heard Ye Xiao's message: "What? Yuan Wanru said that she was the one who put the drug in?"
"She said it herself."
Murong Xiao's mouth was agape.
Unexpectedly, Lu Jiangnian's wife actually has this ability.
Most importantly, she said that only she could cure the poison.
"Let's go, let's go now."
Murong Xiao had had enough.
During this time, he didn't contact any women, and didn't even want to see any.
Whenever he saw them, he would think that these people were probably looking down on him, slandering him, and calling him a good-for-nothing.
He was going crazy.
Despite being the head of the academy, Gao Peng was helpless.
Murong Xiao is still young and full of vigor; it would be too cruel to make him abstinent now.
Besides, he has no son!
This is what he finds most unbearable. After years of painstaking planning, it all turned out to be a waste of time and effort for someone else. How could he accept such an ending?
Now that he knows his poison can be cured, Yuan Wanru would probably seriously consider asking him to come see her, or even if she asked him to kneel down.
-
Meanwhile, Liang Yusong also received the news.
She always knew that Lu Jiangnian was responsible for poisoning her.
Unexpectedly, the person who actually made the move was Yuan Wanru.
Her intuition was right. The moment she first met Yuan Wanru, she felt that this woman would hinder her grand plan.
If she had killed Yuan Wanru immediately back then, perhaps none of this would have happened.
Green Calyx: "Miss, what should we do about the two people in the cellar?"
Liang Yusong sneered: "Let her go? Does Yuan Wanru think she can escape alive after entering Ziyun Temple?"
That temple looks ordinary, but it actually has many secret passages inside.
Once Yuan Wanru has cured them of the poison, she will make sure Yuan Wanru suffers a fate worse than death.
-
At the same time, Su Shaodong obtained a map of the secret passages of Ziyun Temple.
Last night, Xuan Ying urgently asked him for some medicinal herbs because those herbs were too poisonous. Su Shaodong asked a question and learned about what had happened to Yuan Wanru.
In other areas, Su Shaodong might not be able to help.
However, Ziyun Temple and the Su family have a long history.
He had a great-aunt who went to Ziyun Temple to cultivate herself and even drew a map of the secret passage of Ziyun Temple.
The only downside was that the secret passage map became part of my great-aunt's burial goods.
Su Shaodong rushed to his late grandmother's tomb overnight, and outrageously opened the coffin to retrieve the secret passage map.
"Ancestor, I'm sorry for offending you. I'll return it to you after I've used it. Please don't take offense."
It can only be said that Su Shaodong is indeed a maverick; he does such things without the slightest hesitation.
Xuan Ying was overjoyed to receive Su Shaodong's secret passage map: "Great! With this map, the young master's wife will surely be able to kill Liang Yusong."
Indeed, Yuan Wanru went to the meeting alone this time because she didn't want to see Liang Yusong causing trouble again.
Whether the Second Prince lives or dies is none of her business.
Surely the Emperor wouldn't be too bothered by killing Liang Yusong.
You have to kill your enemy yourself to feel satisfied.
