Chapter 388 is a bit powerful
"If you really have something going on with Wei Yunzhi, why would you marry me?" Han Zheng said.
This didn't seem like the first time he had said something like this, Qiao Zhenzhen thought.
"I did go to the Jian'an Marquis's mansion to see Wei Yunzhi. He wrote to me saying that the Marquis's wife was ill and had seen many doctors but to no avail. He wanted me to help."
"Ah."
"I shouldn't have gone."
"Ah."
"But I have a reason to go."
This time Han Zheng didn't say "hmm", but he didn't ask the reason either.
Qiao Zhenzhen winked at Han Zheng and said playfully, "I'm going to poison him."
Han Zheng suddenly opened his eyes wide.
He managed to stretch his phoenix eyes into almond eyes.
He sat up, not knowing whether he was speechless due to shock or was thinking. After a while, he lowered his voice and looked at his wife who looked relaxed and pretended to be cute, and said:
"Poison? You, him, why…"
Qiao Zhenzhen also sat up slowly.
The weather in October is a bit cool.
Han Zheng got out of bed, took his coat and put it on her, then pulled the quilt higher.
Qiao Zhenzhen smiled faintly as she watched his series of considerate actions.
"Yes, I poisoned him. It wasn't a deadly poison, but the kind that requires an antidote every month."
Han Zheng came back to his senses. "You were fiddling with herbs in the study those few days. Was that what you were working on?"
"Did you learn this recipe from your master? I've never heard of such a powerful poison."
At most, it's a poison that can slowly weaken a person.
Qiao Zhenzhen leaned close to him, pretending to whisper, and whispered, "There's no such poison at all. It's all made up in storybooks. I just gave him some medicine that gave him a headache, then lied to him and said I had given him a strange poison and that he needed to take an antidote pill every month. And then... he believed it!"
Han Zheng was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a moment.
"You, you, what are you doing..."
My thoughts were all over the place, and for a moment I felt like a tangled mess in my head, and I couldn't make sense of it.
"Who told him to do that to you?"
Qiao Zhenzhen said angrily.
Han Zheng gradually calmed down, "You mean, all those things that happened before were done by Wei Yunzhi?"
The person behind the scenes obviously wanted to break up the couple, so why would Wei Yunzhi get involved?
Previously, he just thought that the eldest princess had asked the virtuous concubine for help, and he was also investigating in this direction, but he had not found any evidence yet.
Could it be that Wei Yunzhi really does...
Affectionate.
Qiao Zhenzhen's next words broke his thoughts.
"It can't be said that it was Wei Yunzhi's original intention. He was also instructed by someone, and the virtuous concubine was behind it."
"The virtuous concubine is a woman in the inner palace. Her family doesn't have much influence and is thousands of miles away. If she wants to do anything outside the palace, she must find another suitable person."
"Wei Yunzhi has status, is precocious, and is extremely intelligent. He is also the Second Prince's study companion and a natural supporter of the Second Prince. Of course, he is the most suitable candidate."
Just like Han Zheng, he has been the prince's study companion since he was a child. In the eyes of ordinary people, even if he did not do anything to help the prince on the surface, he is still a prince's gang.
Han Zheng's expression turned grim.
Thought of something else.
Qiao Zhenzhen continued:
"Wei Yunzhi was so well-informed about the Baoguo Temple incident. I felt that their relationship was closer than just a so-called study partner."
"The fight for the throne is nothing new."
"The Empress's position is stable, the Crown Prince's position is stable, and the Second Prince spends his days in romantic pursuits, showing no political ambitions. He doesn't seem to be aiming to seize the throne."
Han Zheng interjected: "It's just that the prince is still suffering from chronic poison."
"Yeah, it seems everything is just hidden underwater," Qiao Zhenzhen said. "Originally, if they didn't bother me, I wouldn't bother."
Han Zheng suddenly asked, "That autumn hunt, Wei Yunzhi found you faster than I did. Were they the ones who did it?"
Qiao Zhenzhen didn't expect him to mention the autumn hunt.
I thought I had fooled it.
"Maybe."
Han Zheng said: "No, if it was them who did it, he would have enough time to silence you instead of rushing to save you."
Qiao Zhenzhen retorted, "I killed Tiger that day. If he ordered someone to kill me, it would be too obvious. We lured Tiger here to make it look like an accident. If he killed me, wouldn't that expose the whole thing?"
Han Zheng looked at her for a while before saying, "Maybe there was a disagreement between them. Concubine Xian wanted to kill you because of the eldest princess, but Wei Yunzhi didn't want to. So what happened later was just targeting me."
He is really sharp.
Qiao Zhenzhen thought.
"What do you mean by that? You said you trusted me before, but now you doubt me?"
"I didn't doubt you."
I just doubt Wei Yunzhi.
Suspect him...
Adore you.
"You just doubt me!" Qiao Zhenzhen crossed her hands in front of her chest and turned her head away.
"I do not have."
At this time, Han Zheng returned to his usual tongue-tied nature and could only say no.
"I really don't."
"Humph."
"You've already poisoned him, how could I doubt you?"
"Humph."
"Okay, don't be angry."
I can't coax her, so I can only change the subject.
"Your poison is fake, will he be able to see through it?"
Qiao Zhenzhen rolled her eyes at him.
"I told him that this poison was prescribed by my master. Even if we consulted other doctors, they wouldn't be able to find any clues. Given the blind faith that people have in my master, he would definitely believe it."
"That's good."
Han Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.
But it seemed that the daughter-in-law was still a little angry.
"You are so bold! You acted on your own without telling me."
Qiao Zhenzhen tilted her head, "I told you, you definitely won't agree to let me take this risk."
Han Zheng asked: "How did you find out that he was the one who did all the previous things?"
Of course, Qiao Zhenzhen couldn't say that all the information was gathered by Yi Wan. She only vaguely said, "I was somewhat suspicious of him before, so I investigated in this direction and found some clues."
Han Zheng nodded, "Then he will..."
"You won't bother us again."
Qiao Zhenzhen seemed a little more confident.
"That's good."
Almost everything was coaxed out, and Han Zheng completely relaxed.
After a day of depression, my mood became cheerful.
Although his wife takes an unconventional approach, she is indeed capable.
-
The rumors outside were very strong for just two or three days, and then gradually lost their momentum.
In the entire Han Mansion, except for Lin who was quite resentful and felt that it was a huge event, no one else, at least the elders, even asked a single question.
Just pretend it didn't happen.
The marriage between the prince and the princess was originally an arranged marriage.
It is a marriage of interests.
To be honest, it was the Han family that got the biggest advantage.
They are nothing more than rumors that seem to be true. There is no need to pay any attention to them.
I thought the matter was over.
Who knew that a few days later, another one would pop up.
As usual, Xia Xiang shouted "Oh no" and ran to find Qiao Zhenzhen in a hurry.
Qiao Zhenzhen also asked her calmly as usual: "What's wrong?"
Dongxiang was still doing needlework beside her. She just looked up at Xiaxiang and then lowered her head to do her own thing.
