Chapter 529: Silk Entanglement

That night, Xuanyuan Yao's mind was full of thoughts, and he felt like an ant sitting on a hot pot could not sit still.

However, due to Xie Jin's health, he still stayed in Jinyuan all night until the sky was dark and there was a sound of footsteps outside.

The Xie family guards came in to report that Mr. Chu was here, and Xuanyuan Yao slowly turned his head and looked outside.

Chu Nanyi walked in carrying the medicine box. When he met Xuanyuan Yao's eyes, his expression was obviously surprised: "Prince Yao?"

"Mr. Chu." Xuanyuan Yao nodded and stood up from the chair beside the bed, "You came quite early."

I sent someone to invite him at midnight last night, and no one came until dawn.

Is it because the boy from the Xie family was lazy and didn't go, or was it because Chu Nanyi couldn't put on a show?

"It's getting late." Chu Nanyi didn't know whether she understood the meaning of his words, and smiled gracefully, "Xie Shoufu should have entered the palace to discuss matters by now. When did Prince Yao come over?"

Xuanyuan Yao said calmly: "Last night."

Chu Nanyi was surprised: "You stayed here all night?"

Xuanyuan Yao nodded.

"Prince Yao is really affectionate and kind to Mr. Xie." Chu Nanyi walked to the bedside, looked at Xie Jin who was still sleeping, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Master Xie Jiu slept soundly."

Xuanyuan Yao asked: "The poison in his body has not been completely eliminated?"

"The name of this poison is 'Tangsi', and its toxicity is somewhat complicated." Chu Nanyi frowned, "Fortunately, the treatment was early, otherwise Xie Jiuye would have lost all his martial arts and had to take the medicine for the rest of his life, even if he didn't die."

So serious?

Xuanyuan Yao was slightly shocked: "Who poisoned me?"

"The assassin was not caught." Chu Nanyi said, turning to look at him, "Mrs. Xie didn't tell you last night?"

Xuanyuan Yao was silent for a moment: "I told you, but I saw that Mrs. Xie was not in good spirits and asked her to go back to rest early, so I didn't ask very detailed questions."

"'Tangsi' is highly poisonous. It is not fatal immediately, but it can make people disabled."

Xuanyuan Yao's expression suddenly changed: "Maimed?"

"It's like a vine, adhering to the meridians of the human body, corroding the mental energy and making people weak day by day. The martial arts practitioners' martial arts slowly fade away, the meridians shrink, and eventually they are unable to walk or even take care of themselves." Chu Nanyi's tone was cold, "The person behind this is really vicious."

Xuanyuan Yao's face darkened.

Last night he suspected that this was a trick directed and performed by Xie Jin. Now after hearing Chu Nanyi's words, he suddenly felt that he was really stupid. How could he doubt him so much?

Even if he really wants to use the bitter trick, he can't be so cruel to himself.

If Chu Nanyi doesn't arrive in time, I'm afraid the consequences will be disastrous.

Xuanyuan Yao thought about this, his brows darkened slightly: "Using the poison of 'Tangsi' as a clue, can we find out the identity of the person who led the assassination?"

"I've already sent people to check." Chu Nanyi said, raising his hand to touch Xie Jin's wrist pulse, "But the person who dares to attack Xie Jin at the door of Xie's house, and can succeed with one blow, is by no means an ordinary person. identity."

Xuanyuan Yao said nothing, and turned his eyes slightly to look at Xie Jin, who had fallen into a deep sleep.

The poison made him look very weak, and his senses had lost their sensitivity. At this moment, Chu Nanyi and he were standing here talking, and he was still sleeping so deeply, as if he hadn't heard them at all.

It can be seen that what Chu Nanyi said is indeed true.

"I think the Su family has suspicions and motives for taking action." Chu Nanyi took out a crystal clear blue crystal porcelain bottle from the medicine box, poured a pill from the porcelain bottle and stuffed it into Xie Jin's mouth, closing it slightly. The pill slid down his chin, "But the person hired to commit the murder must not be from the imperial capital."
