Chapter 570 Confirmation
"..." Chu Qingmeng's breath got stuck in his throat, and he kicked, "What else? Burning incense?! To make you smell better?!"
"Mother, mother, mother, please calm down..." Mo Jiangche saw that she was kicking him angrily and did not dare to hide.
"Send someone to investigate Dong. Once the fragrance of this flower enters the flesh and blood, it's only a matter of time before the poison takes effect. It's so toxic that there's no antidote for it on earth." Chu Qingmeng felt out of breath after kicking him a few times.
"No... no solution? Mother?" Mo Jiangche only then realized the seriousness of the situation.
"It's okay." Chu Qingmeng patted him. "With mother here, you'll be fine. I've already determined what the poison is, and I'll naturally find a way."
"My son is now asking someone to investigate the Dong family."
"Find all the evidence that she killed her husband and send her back to the Grand Tutor's Mansion." Chu Qingmeng's meaning was clear.
Mo Jiangche understood and called his secret guards to investigate. "Mother, I feel guilty towards her. I have been pampering her as much as I could all this time, but I never thought she would want to kill me."
He picked up the handkerchief handed to him by Chunhe and tried to wipe off the flower on his chest, but he couldn't wipe it off no matter how hard he tried.
"After such humiliation, how can you expect others not to hate you? Stop wiping it off, it won't go away." Chu Qingmeng pointed at the flower on his chest, "The heart of the flower hasn't grown yet. You still have time. Once the heart grows, the poison will take effect."
As they were talking, Mo Liujin and his son came back.
After Mo Jiangche explained the situation, he looked down at the flower on his chest, frowned slightly, and straightened his collar. "What did mother just say this flower is called?"
"Higanbana."
"Is this the red spider lily?!" Mo Liujin was shocked for a moment. "I remember you once said that this flower blooms at the junction of yin and yang. I've had people search for it for so long but haven't found it. Where did Dong get it?"
Chu Qingmeng was silent for a moment. She hadn't expected Mo Liujin to keep searching for this flower. "The so-called boundary between Yin and Yang doesn't refer to a specific place. It's when a person swallows the flower seeds before dying, blocking their last breath, that becomes the boundary between Yin and Yang."
Mo Liujin rubbed his brows. His wife's hobbies were unique. He sighed, "How do we cure this poison?"
"I need to leave for a few days." Chu Qingmeng had already thought of a solution.
"I'll go with you." Mo Liujin couldn't let her go out alone. Given her health, she probably wouldn't even eat if he wasn't around.
"...You still have to deal with state affairs. The issue of appointing a crown prince has caused a big stir, and your position is very important. I'm just on the fifth floor and I'm not going out." Chu Qingmeng didn't want anyone to be around him.
She doesn't gamble.
Mo Liujin had made up his mind to accompany her, but he didn't want to argue with her, so he just went along with her and said, "Madam, what do you think about the appointment of a crown prince?"
"Nothing." Chu Qingmeng's expression was indifferent, and nothing could be seen. "Appointing a crown prince early also makes him a target of public criticism. Eleven's move doesn't seem to be about not wanting to wait, but about being unable to wait."
"Mother, why?" Mo Jiangqing had been listening quietly, and only now did he realize that he didn't understand.
Sighing, Chu Qingmeng gave them a serious analysis of the situation. "As he said, since he has hidden the person for so many years, why would he care about a year or two? Why would he have to self-destruct at this time? Unless he can't wait any longer and must expose the person.
In other words, either Eleven couldn't wait any longer, or the boy couldn't wait any longer. Besides his health, I couldn't think of any other reason why he couldn't wait. Quan Si checked his pulse, and he was in good health. So, the only problem was with the boy.
Eleven's actions are more like a father who has been pushed to the limit and desperately wants his son to have a legitimate reputation."
"The young man is in good health. He doesn't look like he has any health problems." Mo Liujin shook his head. Qing Meng was not at the scene, so it was inevitable that there would be discrepancies in the report he heard.
Chu Qingmeng raised an eyebrow, "Two-way."
Shuang Cheng came in from outside and handed a stack of information to Mo Liujin. This was the biography that Mo Yunting's people had compiled for Mo Zichu in advance. Anyone who searched would only find this.
After the three of them finished reading the pile of information, Mo Jiangqing smiled bitterly, "Mother is quite quick. I went to investigate the young man as soon as the court was dismissed yesterday. I only found out that he fainted after leaving the palace. I didn't find anything else."
"How can I let go of this prince who has escaped the net?" Chu Qingmeng joked.
After lunch, Chu Qingmeng returned to the fifth floor. Mo Liujin held her waist tightly without saying a word, as if he would go wherever she went.
"...Get out." Chu Qingmeng was already tired and had no time to pay attention to him, so he started to chase him away.
"I'll accompany you no matter what you do." Mo Liujin insisted.
"..."
Chu Qingmeng struggled for the entire afternoon but was unable to get Mo Liujin to leave.
In desperation, she could only let him stay outside the screen and lied to him that she wanted to take a bath and not let him follow. Mo Liujin originally refused, but Chu Qingmeng made a face and made him shut up.
Stepping into the tub, he forcibly mobilized his spiritual energy to cast a spell on the back of his neck, enduring the backlash and counteracting the suppression of the derivative pill.
Finally, the dazzling blue scales on the back of the neck began to appear faintly.
