Qiu Che was a little surprised when he said these coaxing words: "...So he was poisoned by your medicine?"
Li Qingwu coughed: "I did poison him, but I don't know if it was my medicine that poisoned him... I prefer Someone else is drugging him besides me."
"Huh?" Qiu Che pondered slightly, "What do you mean?"
"In order to prevent being noticed, I only put it in the aromatherapy. Seriously, it can even make people feel happy and addicted to the taste. It will take three to five years to see the effect..." "But now in less than three years, he has become completely ill and cannot even go to the morning court
.
Entrust the useless prince to supervise the country.
Qiu Che nodded: "Who do you suspect?"
"Why don't you ask first," Li Qingwu said softly, "Why should I poison him?"
Qiu Che said gently: "It's obvious."
Ren Whoever has been in that kind of cage, with his head held down and learning those cumbersome and decadent rules for ten years, will not be able to help but explode.
Li Qingwu only poisoned the opponent instead of directly stabbing the opponent to death. This was due to her personality and she was unable to do such violent and impulsive things.
Li Qingwu smiled and felt a little more relaxed.
Just as he was about to continue her topic, he suddenly heard Qiu Che say softly: "After all, you are someone who can deliberately drop your own blood on the incense burner to induce love in order to free yourself from the prison."
Li Qingwu: "... ...!"
The two looked at each other for a moment, looking at Qiu Che's smiling eyes, Li Qingwu pursed his lips unconsciously, and his ears slowly turned red.
"You... when did you know?"
Qiu Che was very calm. He stretched out his hand and tugged on her slightly crooked fur collar and said, "There were speculations before, but I just confirmed it."
In fact, it was more than a year ago. In the past, she had sensed something was wrong during the Queen Mother's birthday banquet.
Obviously she had prepared all escape routes, and she had obviously tried her best to guard against all unexpected situations - Li Qingwu still got injured at the birthday banquet, still went to change clothes alone, and still fell in love.
And he still bumped into Qiu Che.
Qiu Che once suspected that cutting his finger while playing the piano could be said to be a bitter love story performed by Li Qingwu in order to refuse to perform. What about passing the love test?
In her previous life, she had never known about the existence of love relationships, and naturally she had no doubts about Li Qingwu's traditional Chinese medicine.
But in this life, she knew the truth about passing the love barrier -
it requires the fusion of the saint's blood and rosemary to have a one in ten thousand chance of triggering the love barrier.
This is something that only exists in rumors. Even Jiang Bo and Chen Huichun have never seen anyone actually being poisoned by this poison.
Is it necessary for Wu Xiang, who didn't take Qiu Che very seriously at that time, to have such a thing as a love affair just because he acted with the Qiu family on a whim?
What's more, can he do it?
Then here comes the problem.
Li Qingwu was indeed poisoned, and residues of rosemary were indeed found in the incense burner in the wing.
Qiu Che thought about many possibilities, but they were rejected one by one because they were unreasonable. In the end, he could only think that this was Li Qingwu's intention.
She said that the way she obtained the memories of her previous life was through dreaming.
When I first found Qiu Che and sent him to the palace for trial, it was because I had a dream that reminded me of her existence, so I came to explore Qiu Che's reality.
So, is there a possibility that at the beginning, she also dreamed about what would happen at this palace banquet, so she followed the same example in her previous life and pressed the bloody wound on her finger into the incense burner with rosemary incense? .
She is a descendant of the Nanyi Saint, and her blood naturally has the ability to transform rosemary.
Li Qingwu did this, firstly, to confirm the authenticity of the dream, and secondly, to help himself escape from this nightmare hell.
After successfully confirming her conjecture, she took the initiative to find Qiu Che -
this is also the reason why Qiu Che was not drunk in this life, but still met Li Qingwu, a Chinese herbalist, on the way.
Because she was Li Qingwu's chosen prey from the beginning.
Even before leaving, she did not forget to secretly use the few connections she had accumulated over the years to drug the emperor.
Even if something went wrong in the future, as a married daughter of the royal family, she would not be blamed.
How could a girl who grew up in a deep palace be a weak and weak white flower?
It was Qiu Che who imagined her as too innocent and harmless from the beginning.
She only has one question now: "Why did you fall in love in your last life?"
Li Qingwu said honestly: "...It was really an accident." He
accidentally stumbled when passing by the incense burner and stretched out his hand to hold it. When he reached the pillar next to him, a drop of blood on his finger happened to be thrown out.
In this way, it fell into the incense burner in a very appropriate manner.
Then it was swallowed up completely, leaving no trace.
Seeing Qiu Che thoughtful, Li Qingwu rubbed his earlobes and whispered uneasily, "Are you angry?"
"No," Qiu Che regained consciousness as usual, "Continue. Do you doubt who else will give it to you?" He was poisoned?"
Li Qingwu looked at her expression carefully and couldn't tell anything, so he reluctantly brought the topic back: "I don't know, but there is one thing that feels strange." "
What?
The reason for His Majesty's illness has not been found out," Li Qingwu said softly.
Qiu Che noticed that she hardly called him "Father" now.
"After he fell completely ill three months ago, the prince quickly took charge of the country and fought fiercely with the other two parties."
"His Majesty even ordered that no one except the prince could go to treat illness or visit the sick... But this It's just the news that the prince has spread to the outside world. No one knows what's going on with his majesty." Li
Qingwu paused, then thought again: "Oh, no, there is another person who can go and take care of you."
"
"Concubine Xu Xian."
Qiu Che kept his word and asked Li Qingwu to protect the capital for him, so during the year when he was not in the capital, except for asking about some details in the beginning, Li Qingwu basically took the initiative. Only then will she take the letter and read it.
I won't deliberately inquire about anything.
Firstly, because of the busy war, he really couldn't get away. Secondly, he felt that Li Qingwu had grown up quite mature and no longer needed her help.
This also resulted in her being unaware of many situations in the capital.
Although Li Qingwu would tell her about big things, he couldn't write all the details in the letter.
In addition, he didn't want Qiu Che to worry too much about it, so he hid many trivial things.
For example, after the prince came to supervise the country, Concubine Xu Xian's child, which was supposed to be born, soon had a miscarriage and gave birth to a stillborn fetus.
Some time after the miscarriage, she sent someone to send a message to Li Qingwu, calmly stating that she wanted to join their camp.
Li Qingwu asked her why she made this choice.
The other party said that there was no other reason, she just figured it out.
For her, she once thought that man was heaven, and giving birth to a prince and becoming a queen were her biggest goals in life.
She loved the emperor, but she loved her children even more.
Not only because children can make her invincible in the harem, but also because she is a mother.
Since the emperor couldn't give her what she wanted, couldn't protect her child, and couldn't make her feel loved anymore.
ââThen why not change camps?
If Qiu Che hadn't come forward to go north, her ten-year-old daughter would have been sent to Northern Hungary for marriage in that shabby place where birds don't even shit.
Not only did the emperor not stop it, he was even the initiator of the incident.
How could this not chill her?
What really made her decide to join Qiu Che's camp was the miscarriage incident.
The child in her belly was harmed by the prince, and the domineering attitude of the prince once he gained power lingered in her mind.
She would never have another child, let alone support her child to ascend to the throne of prince.
The emperor is useless, and if he is so ill, then it is estimated that the prince's accession to the throne is not far away.
When the other party comes to power, will he really let her go and Ping Yi?
Concubine Xu Xian had already lost a child. She regarded Pingyi as her last treasure and would not allow such a tragedy to happen to her again.
After hesitating and thinking for a long time, she set her sights on Qiu Che's camp.
They are all women.
Qiu Che has ability, vision, and status, but he is opposed to marriage.
Prove that at least she won't harm Pingyi.
When Li Qingwu was still in the boudoir, he had a very good relationship with Pingyi. Even after they got married, the relationship between the two sisters did not change.
Concubine Xu Xian made the boldest decision in her life.
She wanted to place her bet on these two women.
I bet they will leave their names in history a hundred years from now.
Li Qingwu asked her again, what do you want?
Concubine Xu Xian replied to her:
I just want Shu Shu to be safe.
After returning to the princess mansion, it was already late at night.
Li Qingwu and Qiu Che went to wash up one after another. When Qiu Che came back from the next door, he saw Li Qingwu sitting beside the bed, wearing only a vague gauze dress.
Miaoman's body was almost completely shrouded in gauze, but she was still holding a book and reading it seriously.
Qiu Che's eyes froze for a moment, and his throat felt dry for no reason.
She coughed and stepped forward to pour herself a cup of tea: "What are you looking at?"
Li Qingwu raised his head and glanced at her: "...picture book."
"Oh, story book," Qiu Che said casually, "What's it called? "
Li Qingwu's expression remained calm, but his face was a little red.
She whispered: "You will know if you come here and take a look."
Qiu Che put down the cup in confusion and walked over to take a look.
Then she choked and almost spit out all the tea she had not yet swallowed: "...What are these?"
The charming eldest princess and her consort?
These two figures who are nakedly entangled... are they? ? ?
Li Qingwu stared at her suddenly blushing face and licked his lips: "Didn't I say...picture book."
It was a story about them that had just become popular among the people during this period -
yes, that's how the people gossiped. , although their relationship is not publicized to the outside world, there is still no shortage of people who can imagine various versions of their stories.
Qiu Che: "..."
She was silent: "So, is that what I thought?"
She asked why Li Qingwu was wearing so little in such a cold weather...
But wasn't it just last night...! !
Li Qingwu's eyes were sincere and he put down the book. The fluttering pages covered up the beautiful scenes inside.
From an obscure angle, she was gently rubbing her calf against Qiu Che's.
The movements were ambiguous and seductive, and the voice was like a feather, gently sweeping across Qiu Che's heart, but his eyes were very innocent:
"...I'm just afraid that you will be angry with me. But I don't know how to apologize to you."
Si. After thinking about it, it seems that only her body is slightly attractive.
Qiu Che froze: "...I'm not angry."
But...Qiu Che really couldn't bear to show weakness and ask for forgiveness in this way.
Li Qingwu was confused: "Really not?"
Qiu Che looked more confused than she was: "Am I a very duplicitous person?"
Li Qingwu said "Oh", seeming a little disappointed, and took back his white and tender legs: "I I thought you would be unhappy about this."
"Really not," Qiu Che paused, pulled the quilt and covered her legs, "On the contrary, I am very happy that you are not incapable of protecting yourself... ...You are able to protect yourself. Really, I am very happy."
Li Qingwu was stunned.
Qiu Che reached out and pinched her face, and said seriously:
"And even if I am angry, you have actually done nothing wrong. I don't want you to use this method to coax me every time I encounter a conflict..."
Li Qingwu He was stunned, his face flushed with embarrassment: "I just thought you would like it..."
Qiu Che is not actually a very proactive person in relationships, but when he met Li Qingwu and saw her shyness... he couldn't help but feel moved.
Qiu Che kissed the corner of her lips and said in a hoarse voice: "But, I do like it."
Li Qingwu's eyes seemed to light up.
Qiu Che laughed: "So I'm afraid that if you do something wrong one day, I won't be able to handle it."
The implication is that you should not do this again in the future.
However, after she finished kissing and left, Li Qingwu subconsciously followed her direction and moved his lips forward. After reacting, he licked his lips again.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes were bright, a little shy, but straightforwardly longing.
"...But now, I want to kiss him."
She was really just doing this to make Qiu Che happy, but damn, after the other party said these words, she was... even more attracted to this person.
And she understands that here in Qiu Che, there is actually no use in beating around the bush.
Hitting the ball straight is the best way to communicate.
As expected, Qiu Che became wet and heavy as soon as he took a breath.
When Qiu Che rolled onto the bed with the person in his arms in a daze, Qiu Che suddenly came back to his senses. Looking at Li Qingwu's watery eyes in front of him, his heart skipped a beat.
It's over, she thought.
Why do you feel like you are becoming more and more "faint" these days?
A gentleman should not be fascinated by beauty.
â¦â¦never mind.
Qiu Che buried his head and kissed Li Qingwu's white and tender earlobe.
She is not a "gentleman" anyway.
