“What? She’s gone?”
Wen Quansheng and Wen Changyun came up empty-handed again.
The father and son thought they had figured out everything, so when they went to the palace to look for Wen Si, they learned that Wen Si had already returned to Shuiyue Temple.
Xiao Dezi smiled slightly, “Yes, Her Highness the Saint was thinking about the blessing ceremony in a few days, and she was eager to go back to Shuiyue Temple to prepare as soon as she woke up.”
The expression on Wen Quansheng’s face was a little grim.
He originally wanted to ask in person, but now Wen Si went straight back to Shuiyue Temple.
If he were in the palace, he could still see people.
But in Shuiyue Temple, he couldn’t even enter the door.
Could this also be part of Beichen Yuan’s plan?
Wen Quansheng was suspicious.
But what he didn’t know was that this was not Beichen Yuan’s plan at all.
Wen Si herself guessed that Wen Quansheng would definitely come to find her in person, so after her eyes recovered, she went back without stopping with Master Mochou.
It wasn’t because she was afraid of Wen Quansheng, but because she had to prepare for the blessing ceremony first, and then she would have time to deal with these people.
Also, she didn’t want Wen Zichen to be released from prison so early.
Until she gets back into the right mood, she’ll be kept in jail.
When Wen Quansheng and Wen Changyun chased to the foot of Nanshan Mountain, they found that soldiers had been sent to guard the place at some point.
And those soldiers were obviously the Black Flag Army under Beichen Yuan.
They forcibly stopped the carriage of the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion in the name of protecting the saint and preventing thieves.
He also directly pointed out that anyone with the surname Wen was not allowed to come near him.
Wen Quansheng’s face instantly turned black on the spot.
He, the Duke of Zhenguo who had always been respected by others, never expected that he would be humiliated again and again in just a few days.
Especially since this was caused by his willful and rebellious daughter.
Wen Quansheng returned dejectedly, guessing that they would not have the chance to see Wen Si again at least before the blessing ceremony was over.
So after being angry, he threw the matter to his eldest son.
“What His Majesty needs is an attitude. In the next few days, you brothers and sisters will take turns to go to Nanshan to test it. It would be best if you can see him. If not, you must let His Majesty know that the Wen family is not perfunctory.”
Wen Changyun nodded, “Son, I understand.”
So in the next few days, someone told Wen Si every day that members of the Wen family were looking for her at the foot of the mountain.
Because Beichen Yuan had already told her that he had arranged guards at the foot of the mountain, she didn’t have to pay any attention to the Wen family until the blessing ceremony was over.
So Wen Si turned a blind eye every day.
But it’s not just the Wen family that came today.
“Why is His Royal Highness the Regent here?”
Wen Si was kneeling upright on the mat, copying Buddhist scriptures in her hands.
Hearing the voice behind her, she looked at the person in surprise.
Beichen Yuan stood outside the door and did not enter her room without permission.
After the young master who led the way left, he said, “I am here to give you something.”
He took out two medical books from his pocket that he had not had time to give away before.
But under these two medical books, there seems to be one more.
Wen Si put down her pen, stood up, took the medical book from his hand and took a look. Only then did she discover that the third book at the bottom was actually a book on poisons.
She looked up in astonishment, “Your Highness the Regent, what is this Poison Scripture…?”
“You asked me to help you find those medical books in order to study some of the poisons that can be used, right?”
Beichen Yuan’s words revealed Wen Si’s previously hidden thoughts.
She clenched the poison book tightly and did not deny it.
Beichen Yuan lowered his eyes and looked at her, “Don’t worry, your research on poisons has not been exposed to others.”
After hearing this, Wen Si hesitated for a moment before asking, “So, the reason why Wen Zichen was poisoned was not discovered because Your Highness helped me cover it up?”
She knew that she had poisoned him.
If no one had detoxified Wen Zichen, he would have definitely died, or even if he wasn’t dead, he would have been half dead.
It is impossible that he could receive eighty more lashes.
So the poison must have been cured by someone.
But after the poison was cured, no one came to ask her a question.
She could only guess that someone must have helped her cover it up.
When Wen Si initially guessed, she locked on Beichen Yuan.
Since Beichen Yuan had never brought it up before, Wen Si naturally played dumb as well.
But she didn’t expect that he would suddenly send her a poison sutra today and expose her little trick.
“I did help you cover it up, but the person who detoxified you was not arranged by me.”
Wen Si was slightly stunned.
After a moment, she suddenly remembered that before she lost consciousness that day, Master Mochou had been coaxing her in her ear, asking her to take some detoxification pills.
Could it be that the person who detoxified her and Wen Zichen was Master Mo Chou?
When Beichen Yuan saw that she looked thoughtful, he knew that she should have guessed who that person was.
“This Poison Scripture was written by the Poison King. If you want to learn it, you’d better find someone who can really guide you. Otherwise, you will only play with fire and get burned.”
Beichen Yuan reminded her kindly.
Wen Si nodded, she naturally knew this truth.
But finding someone who can teach her how to use poison is more than just talk.
However, she still took a deep breath and cheered herself up, “Thank you, Your Highness, the Regent, for reminding me. I understand now.”
“Well, besides that, I have something else to give you.”
“besides?”
Wen Si looked up in confusion.
Beichen Yuan: “To be precise, it’s not a thing, but a person.”
After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and a thin black shadow instantly fell from the roof and stood behind him.
He was a man wearing a mask and tight clothes with no skin exposed. He was dressed in black and appeared silently like a shadow hidden in the darkness.
“Ying Qi, come and meet your master.”
Beichen Yuan stepped aside, revealing Wen Si standing in the room.
Ying Qi’s eyes fell on Wen Si.
Wen Si immediately felt as if someone was looking at her carefully from head to toe.
After reading it, Ying Qi knelt on one knee in front of Wen Si and bowed his head respectfully.
“Ying Qi greets the master. Please give me a name.”
