Chapter 203: Poisoning
orse around the back of the carriage train, then galloped back, a troubled expression on his face. “The maids’ carriages are packed to the brim,” he said, “there isn’t even room for the coachmen, thre...Qin Luoyan hesitated for a moment, just about to pass the child over, when Fu Zimo beside her coldly opened his mouth, "She's not the child's biological mother, why is she holding a child!"
In a single sentence, the atmosphere in the room plummeted to freezing point, and the person involved didn't seem to notice anything amiss.
Xiao Changyue's face was a bit unyielding, her facial muscles twitching constantly. No one around dared to speak up, and finally, Qin Luoyan sighed and ignored Fu Zimu's opposition, shoving the child into Xiao Changyue's hands.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Princess is also Yu Jing's godmother. It's only natural for a godmother to hold her child." Qin Luoyan said this, Fu Zi Mo just snorted coldly, but couldn't help but snatched the child over impulsively.
Xiao Changyue, holding the child, quickly changed her face back to normal, a smile plastered on her face. If one didn't know better, they would truly think she loved this adorable child dearly.
But Qin Luoyan still saw Xiao Changyue's hand with her sharp eyes. Her hand was contorted by anger, with veins bulging prominently, and the knuckles were even whiter. For a moment, there was a fleeting chill in her eyes.
Xiao Changyue was playing with the child in his arms when suddenly, a cry from his wife beside him drew everyone's attention.
"Hey, how come the child has a rash on their neck"
Fu Zi Mo was the first to walk over. He snatched the child back, and flipped open the child's collar to look. Sure enough, there were red rashes all over the child's neck, and they were spreading rapidly. There were also signs of them growing on the cheeks.
This scene scared the ladies who attended the banquet.
Qin Luo'yan was also worried, tears immediately streaming down her face, "What's wrong, what's wrong The child was fine just now, how did he suddenly get a rash"
Fu Zi Mo's eyes were blazing with anger. He never let his child out of his sight, feeling even the slightest change in the child's hair, let alone these terrifying rashes. He was sure that when he brought the child here just now, these rashes weren't there!
The rash only appeared here, which means someone must have tampered with me!
His icy gaze swept over the faces of the crowd. The ladies retreated one after another, standing far away, not daring to breathe a word. Xiao Changyue was so frightened that she trembled slightly. She could feel the anger and killing intent in Fu Zimo's eyes.
Yes, it's killing intent!
"Such audacity! To dare use these methods of the inner household in front of this king!" Fu Zi Mo's voice was icy cold, he walked step by step to Xiao Changyue's face and kicked him with his foot.
Xiao Changyue was terrified and immediately retreated, but how could she possibly match Fu Zimu's martial arts skills Although she dodged in time and wasn't kicked in a vital spot, her left calf was still forcefully struck.
A sharp "crack" echoed through the air, causing everyone to shiver. It was the sound of Xiao Changyue's bones breaking.
All the ladies were stunned, and after a sharp crack, several timid ones fainted. Then everyone came to their senses. For a moment, everyone was even more convinced of the rumor: that Prince Wu Xuan had killed countless people, killing without batting an eyelid! This... this was exactly like the rumors said!
For his own beloved queen, he could actually use such a heavy hand! All the ladies were frightened out of their wits and wished they could escape from here.
"Your Highness... Your Highness... It wasn't me, it wasn't me..." Xiao Changyue cried out, disregarding her broken leg, kowtowing repeatedly. She could feel it, that kick just now, Fu Zimuo really wanted to kill her.
"Wasn't it you Just now, Madam Wu bumped into the child with you. Madam Wu is the child's mother, could she possibly harm her own child It could only be you... How is it, since your wedding day, this King hasn't even touched your body, haven't given you the opportunity to have a son for this King. Are you unhappy about this"
He had not touched her body since their wedding day!
This news was a bombshell to the ladies, and for a moment everyone looked at each other, seeing sympathy for the Princess in each other's eyes. As women who had been married but lived as widows, they understood the pain all too well.
"My Lord, how...how could you say such things..." Xiao Changyue's face instantly turned pale. She never imagined that Fu Zimo would completely disregard her reputation and reveal this in front of so many people. How could she possibly live with her face in this circle of nobles after this
Fu Zi Mo didn't even glance at her, but turned and told Jin Mu to go find a doctor.
Qin Luoyan knew Fu Zimo was ruthless, but she never expected him to go this far. All along, she thought he and Xiao Changyue were husband and wife in reality. Wasn't that who he was He took any woman who came his way, and there were many women who had slept with him. Xiao Changyue was one of the most beautiful women in Fengqi City. With a woman like her at his doorstep, and rightfully his wife, how could he possibly not touch her
But he said he had never met Xiao Changyue, Qin Luoyan knew, however, that this statement must be true. The proud Fu Zimu would not stoop to such a thing to slander Xiao Changyue.
Fu Zimu, what kind of person are you
Qin Luo'yan was becoming more and more confused. To say he was cruel and heartless, but he was so kind to children. Once, he treated her like a slave, but when she turned away, he showed such a hurt expression. The most ridiculous thing was that he even said he liked her. For the sake of missing her, he showed a kind smile to a stranger and even cared for that stranger's child.
What kind of person is he
There were specialized doctors in the palace. The doctor arrived quickly and after examining the child, his face changed drastically. After looking at Fu Zimu's expression, the doctor could only grit his teeth and speak, "Reporting to Your Highness, these rashes are..."
"Speak!" Fu Zimo roared, causing the doctor to immediately kneel down.
"It's because of poisoning!" The doctor trembled with fright.
Fu Zi Mo, upon hearing this, indeed had his face turn black as charcoal. He let out a cold laugh and waved his hand, commanding, "Encircle this courtyard with guards. Until we figure out what's going on, no one is allowed to leave!"
You have to know, all the participants in this banquet are family members of officials from the Imperial Court. Many of them are high-ranking officials. Fu Zi Mo's actions would undoubtedly lead to dissatisfaction among the hundred officials, but he still did so without hesitation.
The guards quickly sprang into action, swarming the courtyard like a flood. The ladies had never seen such a grand display before and immediately burst into tears, filling the courtyard with a chorus of wails.
What happened in the backyard quickly spread to the front yard. Everyone was furious when they heard that their wives had been confined by King Wuxuan. Several righteous men gathered together and planned to go to the palace to ask the Emperor to do justice.
