Chapter 96 1 Waiting until late at night

Mu Feng shook his head. "That assassin was very strange. He didn't take anything. Maybe he didn't have time to take it away!"

Chu Li warned Mu Feng, "Uncle, don't make this public. Search secretly and don't disturb the people."

Mu Feng nodded and said, "Yes."

Ye Hanting looked at Chu Li. If it weren’t for Chu Li last night, his poison would have been difficult to cure.

Chu Li said that she knew the world's number one poisoner. Is there any relationship between her and Ye Qingwu?

Yesterday, she seemingly recklessly applied the so-called poisonous snake and spider powder to his wounds.

However, her movements were quick, accurate and ruthless, like that of a veteran.

He recalled the last time she had given Pei Ye a three-day drunk, and he couldn't help but wonder if Chu Li was an expert in using poison.

The poison master Chu Li was gnawing on a pig's trotter, which tasted delicious.

This kid Chi Yan was finally nice to her for once.

After she detoxified Ye Hanting last night, she made up her mind: before the cub was born, she would no longer make poison or detoxify others.

Mu Feng paused as he was picking up food. He was busy catching the assassin last night. Even so late last night, Chu Li and Ye Hanting stayed in the same room until late at night. He heard from the imperial guards that it was past midnight when Ye Hanting left.

Thinking of this, Mu Feng felt a little uncomfortable.

He raised his eyes to look at Chu Li, who was holding a pig's hoof in his hand and looking at him cutely, "What's wrong? Uncle, is there something on my face?"

Chu Li felt very guilty. Could it be that Mu Feng had discovered that she had covered up for Ye Hanting last night?

Mu Feng quickly withdrew his gaze and lowered his eyes. He didn't even dare to look into Chu Li's eyes just now. Why did he feel guilty?

He stood up and said, "I'm going to rest for a while. I have to go out and check the whereabouts of the assassin later."

Chu Li handed the pig's trotter in his hand to Mu Feng, "Eat a pig's trotter before you leave!"

Mu Feng was afraid that Chu Li would discover that something was wrong with him, so he took the pig's trotter and left quickly.

When he returned to his room, he realized how ridiculous his behavior was.

Why did he feel embarrassed after meeting Chu Li's eyes?

He almost watched Chu Li grow up, and he knew very well how he disliked Chu Li in his heart for so many years.

"Why?" Mu Feng stared blankly at the pig's trotter in his hand.

He must be too tired recently, which is why he is acting crazy.

......

In the palace of Concubine Rong.

A palace maid was rubbing her shoulders, and another was massaging her legs. Concubine Rong was listening to the personal eunuch telling her how Chu Li had stole the limelight at the morning court today.

Her face became more and more ugly, and she said while coughing, "Stop talking!"

Madam Liu said worriedly, "Madam, would you like me to ask the imperial physician to come and take a look?"

Concubine Rong spoke out to stop him, "No need!"

She said coldly: "The prince is really capable. He actually pretended to be stupid and deceived me for so many years!"

If she had known this earlier, she should have been more ruthless and killed Chu Li earlier.

Madam Liu comforted her, "The Third Prince sent someone to tell you that he misses you very much."

Concubine Rong smiled slightly, "As long as Chu Yue is here, His Majesty will definitely protect the Third Prince. It is only a matter of time before he comes out of the clan residence."

Only the Third Prince could give her some comfort.

She asked Aunt Liu, "Did you find the master of the mysterious arts that you sent people to look for?"

Madam Liu said in embarrassment: "Madam, we spent a lot of money to go to Tianwu Mountain but didn't see the master of the mysterious arts. It is said that he has gone to travel around the world!"

"Then there is no one like him?" Concubine Rong said angrily.

Madam Liu immediately replied, "There is one. Although he is not as famous as the master of the mysterious arts, he is called Li Banxian and is quite famous among the people."

"Why don't you invite him into the palace right away?"

"Yes, slaves obey."

After Madam Liu left, Concubine Rong looked at the eunuch beside her and asked, "Have you completed the task I asked you to perform?"

"Don't worry, your Majesty. The secret recipe is effective." The trusted eunuch Zhu Qunying raised his lips to smile.

Concubine Rong placed her hand on her belly. The Third Prince and the Fourth Prince were both unreliable at the moment, so she had to find a way to give birth to a child herself.

Half an hour later, Concubine Rong saw a middle-aged man in his fifties with triangular eyes, a mustache, and holding a Bagua plate.

After he saw Concubine Rong, he nodded slightly and said, "This old man greets Concubine Rong."

Seeing that Li Banxian was so arrogant and didn't even kneel down when he saw her, Concubine Rong thought he must be quite capable.

So she dismissed her attendants and only left behind her trusted eunuch Zhu Qunying and Nanny Liu.

"I heard that you have some skills." Concubine Rong asked while stroking her fingernails.

Li Banxian smiled confidently, "Your Highness's wish to have a child will surely come true. As long as you listen to me, your luck will surely turn for the better."

Concubine Rong's breath was held. This man was amazing. He could actually guess what was troubling her the most.

"Madame Liu, did you say that?" She raised her eyelids and glanced at Madame Liu.

Madam Liu knelt down immediately and said, "I swear, I have never told Li Banxian anything."

Concubine Rong's eyes softened a little, "Tell me, what else is troubling me?"

Li Banxian counted with his fingers, "The Imperial Concubine has had bad luck recently. She is in conflict with the evil spirit from the East. I need your help to break the disaster."

Concubine Rong's bright red nails dug into her flesh, the evil spirit of the East.

Are you talking about the Crown Prince Chu Li of the Eastern Palace?

She smiled slightly, "If you have the ability to solve my troubles, I will reward you with ten thousand taels of silver!"

Li Banxian's eyes lit up, "Please, Madam Concubine, write down the man's date of birth and name on a piece of paper. I will definitely help you solve your worries."

Concubine Rong stood up, picked up the rice paper, and wrote down Chu Li's name and birth date.

When Li Banxian saw Chu Li's name and birth date, his pupils shrank sharply. "This person has an emperor's fate. He has a very tough life. It's a bit difficult to deal with him!"

"As long as you can do it for me, I will reward you with 20,000 taels of silver!"

Li Banxian smiled calmly, "Just now I said that this man has a tough life. I can't kill him. I can only make him seriously ill. Whether he lives or dies depends on his fate."

Concubine Rong frowned. Even a half-immortal couldn't kill Chu Li. He was indeed very lucky.

However, as long as Chu Li gets seriously ill, she can take his life while he is sick!

"You just need to make him seriously ill, and don't worry about other things." Concubine Rong's eyes were filled with viciousness.

Li Banxian nodded and said, "Yes, but I have a request. If the Imperial Concubine can do it, everything else will be easy."

"What's the matter?" Concubine Rong was a little annoyed. She just had to pay someone to do the job, why was it so troublesome!

Li Banxian smiled and explained calmly, "My Lady, if you want to harm someone with an imperial fate, you need to take that person's hair and tie it together with yours, then use the blood as a guide for the Taoist to perform a ritual. This is a secret of heaven and must not be disclosed to anyone, otherwise it will shorten your lifespan!"

Concubine Rong was a little annoyed, "Okay, I will find a way."

It’s just a strand of Chu Li’s hair, how difficult is that!
