Chapter 221 Concubine's Self-cultivation 2
Zhao Jinyu also fell into deep thought. This courtyard was not only home to Nan Xi, but also to his two sons. Should they move out together?
He thought so and asked this question, and the wizard shook his head.
"It's only the mistress who's at odds with each other, it has nothing to do with the child."
That means only the Southern Concubine was moved out. Everyone gasped, because she was the biological mother of the two young masters.
Nan Xi walked straight up to the wizard and put a mantra talisman on him.
"Master, who asked you to slander me?"
"It's Aunt Qin."
"What benefit did she give you by asking you to slander me?"
"She gave me a hundred ounces of gold."
The servants in the palace were all stunned. It was really strange that the wizard actually said this and admitted the matter.
Zhao Jinyu's face turned pale and blue, and he seemed to have suffered a great blow.
"Lan'er is not that kind of person. You...you must be slandering her."
The wizard was horrified. He swore that he really didn't want to say it, but he couldn't control his mouth.
"You are really wrong. It was your gentle concubine Qin who told me to say so. She also said that she would give me another 100 taels after the matter was completed."
Zhao Jinyu couldn't believe it. He turned pale, covered his chest, and staggered back, "No... This is impossible..."
Nan Xi raised her hand, and the sun, moon and star disk appeared in the air. The small star disk was hidden and no one could see it.
The Blazing Sun Gu has an extremely yang attribute, and Nan Xi has the extremely yin power in her hands that can restrain it.
An extremely yin force entered Zhao Jinyu's chest, where the Chiyang Gu was.
The poisonous insect felt the power of extreme yin and began to get restless in its heart. It ran around restlessly, trying to hide, but Nan Xi would not give it this chance.
"Look, what's that on the prince's neck?"
Manager Li shouted loudly and kept backing away, as if he had seen something terrifying.
Everyone looked up and saw a lump on the prince's neck moving up to his face.
Zhao Jinyu touched it with his hand, and the bulge changed direction and moved towards his arm.
"What is this thing? How can it move in flesh and blood?"
Zhao Jinyu also felt something strange. He rolled up his sleeves and looked towards the itchy place. He could clearly see a bulge moving around on his arm.
"Master, please save me, I don't want to die."
The wizard himself was so frightened that his hands were shaking. He had never seen anything like this before. Suddenly, he thought of something.
"This is a poisonous insect!"
"There is no cure for the poisonous insects in the Western Regions. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I cannot cure it."
The wizard was horrified and didn't want to stay any longer. He picked up the hem of his robe and ran away.
Nan Xi picked up a stone and threw it at the wizard. With a "bang", he fell to the ground and broke his leg.
"Ouch...it hurts me so much..."
The guards took the mage away and would deal with him later.
Finally, the insect could no longer endure the extreme yin force in its body, so it bit through its skin and crawled out of its flesh and blood. The moment it came out and came into contact with the sunlight, it finally felt comfortable.
Nan Xi activated the Moon Shadow Gem, and countless yin forces gathered into a tiny spot of light, which sank into the heart of the Blazing Sun Gu. The Blazing Sun Gu let out a shrill howl and instantly turned into blood.
Zhao Jinyu covered his ears. The howl just now went straight into his soul. He felt his mind was much clearer.
But the servants all took a step back in fear. The prince looked too terrifying at this moment.
Zhao Jinyu lost the Chiyang Gu. Too much of his energy had been sucked away recently, and he hadn't given anything back. He aged more than ten years in an instant, and his temples were covered with gray hair.
Blood was still flowing out of his seven orifices. The color of the blood was red with a hint of black, which was very scary.
"what……"
A scream was heard in Qixiang Courtyard, and it sounded like Aunt Qin's voice. Everyone looked in that direction curiously, and saw Qiuju staggering over and falling to her knees with a thud.
"Your Highness, please go and see Aunt Qin. She...she...she..."
Qiuju seemed frightened and couldn't speak complete words.
Zhao Jinyu looked at Qixiangyuan and wondered if this poisonous insect had anything to do with Aunt Qin.
"Go and see."
Zhao Jinyu took the lead and strode towards Qixiangyuan, and everyone followed behind.
When I entered Qixiangyuan, I saw that Aunt Qin had woken up. She was also bleeding from all seven orifices. She covered her chest with her hands and spit out a large mouthful of blood. The blood dripped onto her clothes, looking very creepy.
Hearing the noise at the door, she turned around, and her fierce eyes were frightening.
"It's you, you witch. What kind of magic did you use? Did you plant the poisonous insect in me? Are you the witch from the Western Regions?"
Qin Zhilan laughed, and as she laughed, her voice became louder and louder, and she seemed to be going crazy.
"You are useless. You can't even protect a small Blazing Sun Gu. What's the point of having you?"
Qin Zhilan suffered a severe blow and lost her trump card, the Chiyang Gu. Now she found that Zhao Jinyu no longer had feelings for her, so she exploded and decided to throw the jar into the air.
"You are a prince, but you can't even do the smallest things. No wonder you are a waste.
It's a pity that my Blazing Sun Gu was wasted. If I had known earlier, I would have chosen General Pingxi, who is better than a loser like you."
Qin Zhilan looked at Zhao Jinyu with disdain and felt infinite regret in her heart.
Zhao Jinyu was shocked. General Pingxi was already fifty years old. Could it be that he was not as good as an old man?
His chest heaved with anger, and he fainted without being able to catch his breath.
The court doctor arrived soon, and after examining Zhao Jinyu, he said with regret that the prince had suffered a stroke.
The old lady also fainted. She really couldn't accept the fact that her son had suffered a stroke and became paralyzed at a young age and had to spend the rest of his life in bed.
The palace was in chaos, and Nan Xi had to step forward to take charge of the situation.
She first settled Zhao Jinyu and the old lady, then tied up Qin Zhilan and locked her in the woodshed, waiting to deal with her when she was free.
Fortunately, the managers in the palace were all her confidants, and all matters were handled in an orderly manner, just like usual.
When Su Wanqing came to see Nan Xi, she praised her for her ability and for managing the palace so well.
In fact, Nan Xi had a headache. She didn't want to look at the account book. This was not her business and it looked particularly boring.
Su Wanqing was teasing Zhao Moxuan with a piece of dried fruit when Nan Xi suddenly had an idea.
"Sister Su, come here."
Su Wanqing came over quickly after hearing this, "Sister Nan, what do you want me to do?"
"Well, it's a very important matter, so I feel relieved to leave it to you."
Su Wanqing also put away her smile and said, "You say!"
Nan Xi pushed the account book on the table over and said, "I think you are very smart and not like an ordinary woman. I'll leave these to you."
Su Wanqing was stunned. She didn't expect Nan Xi to show her such an important thing.
"Sister Nan, this is the account book. I can't read it."
"Just tell me if you can read it?"
Su Wanqing nodded hesitantly. When she was at her parents' home, her mother trained her as a mistress, and the housekeeper naturally taught her how to read the account books.
"That's good. I'll leave these to you. My eyes hurt just reading them."
Su Wanqing laughed and said, "Okay, I'll come and help check every day and mark out any problems."
Nan Xi waved her hand and said, "If you move out, everything will be yours from now on."
