TVSWWD - Chapter 52 - She was Poisoned

 The slaves who had been indifferent around him, after seeing the whipping, all scurried away with their heads in their hands and moaned, obviously having a deep shadow of the whip.

"How dare you hide from the princess's whip? Come here, this one will be tied up too!"

Xiao Cui noticed something fishy in it with sharp eyes, and immediately opened her eyes wide, and immediately put her hands on her hips to command. The princess was beating him. That was his blessing. How dare he hide?

"Yes."

The guards of the Princess Mansion, who were used to being tools, immediately stepped forward to tie him up. When Murong Yun saw that her own people were on top of him, she stopped what she was doing.

Not to mention, her hands were still a little sore after whipping for a long time.

Seeing this, Qin Lian clenched his lowered palms and looked up at Murong Yun with a weighing look in his eyes. Just when the guard was about to take action, an old woman ran over in panic.

She passed directly over the two guards and held Qin Lian's hand calmly.

"Princess, this is an old slave who failed to teach his son well. Please forgive me, Princess."

The old woman forced Qin Lian to kneel down, her eyes filled with tears and she looked so innocent.

It was the original owner's nanny, Aunt Qin. She saw her daughter-in-law tied up at the door. After asking who came, she ran over without delaying for a moment.

Although she and the princess have not seen each other for nearly ten years, the princess has always been easy to coax, especially in recent years, her behavior has become more and more disorganized. As long as she quibbles, she can hide it.

"Oh? Is it just that you didn't teach well?"

Murong Yun squinted her eyes and looked at Nanny Qin on the ground. In the original book, this Nanny was so arrogant in front of the heroine Baili Shuangxue. She relied on the support of the original owner and acted completely careless of the consequences.

At this time, even in the face of hundreds of extra slaves in the yard, she dared to open her eyes and tell lies.

"Then the princess asked you, what's going on with these slaves? Why do they all look like they've been abused?"

"Although I say that I'm not a good person, I didn't let you buy slaves and abuse them. And you have managed this village into a small farmhouse?"

Murong Yun dropped a series of questions, wanting to see how this Nanny Qin would make up the story.

"This, Princess."

A cold sweat broke out on Nanny Qin's forehead, and the back of her head felt hot. She hesitated and said, "Actually, it's all for the good of the princess."

"For this princess?"

Murong Yun pulled the long whip in her hand with a sneer on her face. It was really a fool's errand to fool her. She raised her chin and pointed at the girl, the slave, who had been whipped and escaped before, and then looked at the cowardly people around her. 

There was a clear question on the beautiful face: "Why, if you abuse them, will this princess extend her life or accumulate virtue?"

"Do you think this princess is so easy to coax as a ten-year-old child?"

After Murong Yun saw this Nanny Qin, she remembered that after the original owner accidentally fell into a coma at the age of ten, it was this Nanny Qin who took care of her for half a month. After the original owner's body got better, she excused her poor health and got the grace of the original owner. 

Many years have passed, because the original owner has no memory of before the age of ten, so she has no impression of this nanny who only took care of her for half a month.

If Si Luo hadn't mentioned it this time, even she would have almost not thought of this incident, which was just a minor plot in the book.

When Nanny Qin heard Murong Yun's hidden angry voice, her heart tightened. Then she rolled her eyes, crawled to Murong Yun on her knees, carefully pulled the corner of her skirt, and cried:

"It's really for the princess. I don't dare to lie to the princess. The princess still remembers that after you injured your head, although you were lucky enough to save your life, your head hurt all night long."

"The old slave felt very distressed when she saw it, so she sewed a sachet for the princess. After that, the princess's headache got better."

"Seeing that the princess is using it, the old slave has been sewing every month for the past ten years and never dares to forget it. Doesn't the princess still bring it with her today?"

Grandma Qin said, pointing to a sachet on Murong Yun's waist, with tears in her eyes, like a kind old woman.

But Murong Yun thought that this person was not a good person, so she quickly pulled off the sachet.

 This scented bag, the original owner's impression or after she crossed over, has always been there. And every month, a new scent bag would appear, she didn't care about it, thinking it was the original owner's habit, so she just hung it as usual.

What does Aunt Qin mean by this? She is the one who sends the sachet every month?

Murong Yun was immediately shocked, and quickly turned her head and asked Xiao Cui: "What's going on?"

Xiao Cui looked at the sachet twice, with a look of confusion on her face: "The embroiderer who makes clothes in the mansion will indeed send this sachet every month. This is when Xiao Cui comes to the princess. 

"Xiao Cui doesn't know that this has anything to do with her..."

Suddenly, Murong Yun also started to panic. Seeing how Nanny Qin looked, could it be that the sachet is made with Huan Luo flower from this Villa?

"Then, what does this sachet have to do with these things? Don't mess around here."

Murong Yun prayed from the bottom of his heart, and Huan Luo flower was not a good thing. It is hallucinogenic and addictive. It will take effect when you touch it. It is ten thousand times more terrible than taking drugs.

However, Nanny Qin didn't know what was going on in her heart. Under Murong Yun's almost eager gaze, she nodded in an extremely kind and loving manner, with humility.

"The elixir in this sachet is an excellent thing and difficult to find in the market. Therefore, I had to find someone to plant it myself."

"To ensure that the elixir is kept constant, I personally keep an eye on it every day, just so that the princess can no longer have a headache."

Well, Murong Yun looked at the sachet in her hand, it was like a hot potato, her hand trembled, and she dropped it to the ground.

This horse riding, this plot, this setting, there is no way for her to survive.

Murong Yun looked like a deceased mother, she was finished, she was poisoned, she was going to die, she was gone.

Just as ten thousand grass and mud horses whizzed by in Murong Yun's heart, Nanny Qin picked up the sachet like a treasure, as if she were alive, and opened the sachet with an extremely mysterious look, and shared it with Murong Yun. 

"Come, Princess, take a look. The color of these elixirs is the best."

Murong Yun took a look. Inside the sachet, there were long petals that were as red as blood. She couldn't tell whether the color was good or not. Instead, she felt terrible and immediately took a step back.

Obviously cowardly.

According to the description in the book, the flowers and leaves of Huan Luo flower are long and bright as blood. It is a fire medicine but extremely yin. The petals of the flowers are fragrant. If you smell it, you will fall into an illusion, as if you are drifting like a fairy.

But only now did she know that the dried Huan Luo flowers had no aroma at all, and she didn't know what medicinal effects they had. The only certainty was that they couldn't be anything good.

It seems that in addition to the settings in the book, the original owner also has many secrets in this real world.

"Princess, don't be afraid, this is a good thing, I will tie it for you."

Nanny Qin had only held the sachet for a while, her eyes were misty for a moment, and she was so frightened that she quickly tied the sachet and stood up to hang it on Murong Yun's waist.
