Shen Ruoyan did feel dizzy and weak these days. She thought it was because the wedding was approaching and she was busy pretending to die to escape from the wedding, which caused a lot of stress.

When Li Zhihan asked this question, she couldn't help but feel a little panicked. However, Shen Ruoyan was very careful in Concubine Xuan's palace that day and didn't even drink a sip of tea. How could she be poisoned?

Li Zhihan saw her disbelief and continued: "You might as well take a look at your wrist. Is there a red mark on it?"

Shen Ruoyan lifted up her sleeves, and a strange red line appeared on her wrist.

"As the poison penetrates your whole body, this red line will slowly form a ring along your wrist. When it closes, it will be the day when the poison occurs. At that time, even Bian Que will not be able to save you even if he is reincarnated. Life." Seeing that Shen Ruoyan still looked dubious, Li Zhihan patiently explained, "Not only do you have it, but your mother should also have it. You can verify it yourself later."

When Shen Ruoyan heard that they didn't even spare her mother, she immediately became angry and her tone became extremely cold, "What do you want from me?"

The imperial concubine went to such great lengths to poison herself and her mother, and Li Zhihan also took the initiative to reveal his identity. If he simply wanted to harm her, there would be no need to go to such trouble.

Shen Ruoyan was sure that they must have some other motive behind doing this.

A ruthless smile appeared at the corner of Li Zhihan's lips, and he dropped a bombshell, "My Majesty asked you to kill Lu Yan on the night of the wedding."

After hearing this, Shen Ruoyan couldn't help but frown. Their target was actually Lu Yan?

"Kill Lu Yan?" Shen Ruoyan snorted coldly, "I don't have the ability."

She didn't know how powerful Lu Yan's martial arts was. Even if Lu Yan didn't know any kung fu, how could she, a weak woman, kill an adult man?

Li Zhihan was a little confused by Shen Ruoyan's attitude.

When a normal person hears someone telling her to kill her future husband-in-law, she shouldn't burst into tears. Besides, everyone knows that Lu Yan is very kind to her.Li Zhihan had already prepared a lot of threats to Shen Ruoyan, but how could Shen Ruoyan be so calm?

Li Zhihan glanced at Shen Ruoyan strangely, and the girl blinked, as if what I said was the truth.

Li Zhihan had no choice but to take out a packet of medicinal powder from his sleeve and said, "On the day of the wedding, mix this into the Henan wine. This medicinal powder is colorless and odorless. After drinking it, your whole body will be limp and you will have no resistance."

Shen Ruoyan picked up the medicinal powder, played with it in her hands, and continued to analyze: "Lu Yan is an important minister of the imperial court. If I kill him, I will die and my family will be implicated and punished. Do you dare to ask why I should listen to your orders?"

"Don't worry, the imperial concubine still cares about you. She has already considered a way out for you." Shen Ruoyan's excessive calmness made Li Zhihan very surprised. Today, he should be in the dominant position, but now he can only follow Shen Ruoyan's rhythm. What he knows is clear, "On the night of your wedding, the imperial concubine will send someone pretending to be an assassin to sneak into the general's mansion. Then you only need to pretend that an assassin has come in and kill Lu Yan, and you can escape."

Shen Ruoyan cursed secretly in her heart, "Why do you feel sorry for yourself when you have asked yourself to kill people?"

The girl stood by the window sill, pursed her lips and chuckled, as if she was ruthlessly mocking Li Zhihan's words just now. Then she lowered her head and fiddled with the powder on her head, as if she was immersed in her own world. Without even looking at Li Zhihan.

The delicate facial features were as bright and charming as ever, but Li Zhihan looked at it and felt a little panicked for some reason.

After a long time, Shen Ruoyan asked slowly: "Why is that so?"

Li Zhihan said honestly, "I'm just helping the imperial concubine to pass the message. I don't know why she wanted to kill Lu Yan. I advise you to..."

Halfway through her words, the girl raised her dark eyes, looked at Li Zhihan with disdain, and pointedly said: "What I'm asking is why you want to help the imperial concubine? You don't know that the imperial concubine wanted to kill your mother last time at the hunting ground. Something about it?"

Li Zhihan's expression suddenly changed a bit, his hand unconsciously touched his slightly bulging belly, and he pursed his lips in silence.

Shen Ruoyan continued: "During my godfather's birthday party last time, you deliberately led me to the kitchen so that I could bump into the man in black on the road, right?"

Shen Ruoyan remembered that it was Li Zhihan who asked her to see if the dishes were ready in the kitchen that day, and then she saw the man in black committing murder in the garden.Shen Ruoyan didn't think much about it at the time, always thinking it was a complete coincidence.

Until today, when she learned that Li Zhihan was the concubine's wife, Shen Ruoyan couldn't help but become suspicious of that matter.

Logically speaking, if you go to the kitchen to see if the dishes are ready, you can send a servant over to ask for such a trivial matter, but why did Li Zhihan ask her to go there?And she happened to see the man in black murdering someone on the way?

Shen Rouyan speculated that Li Zhihan probably knew that someone was deliberately poisoning Mr. Li's wine. She couldn't bear to see her father die tragically, and she couldn't tell the matter clearly, so she deliberately lured Shen Ruoyan over to help her father survive the disaster.

After listening to Shen Ruoyan's words, Li Zhihan's already bad face turned even pale.

Her reaction silently confirmed Shen Ruoyan's guess.

Shen Ruoyan raised her eyebrows in confusion and asked: "Since you can't be cruel, why do you still want to help the imperial concubine and deal with your own family?"

"Family?" After hearing Shen Ruoyan's question, Li Zhihan finally said with a pale face, "I'm already married, tell me, who is my real family?"

Looking at Shen Ruoyan who was about to put on the red gauze, Li Zhihan seemed to see herself a year ago, the girl who was full of good hopes for the future, full of dreams of raising a husband and raising children, but until she actually became someone else's daughter-in-law, there was Her parents-in-law, uncles and aunts below them, still have to keep the husband-in-law's several rooms and concubines at all times. Only she understands the feeling.

Thinking of all kinds of grievances and helplessness in daily life, Li Zhihan sighed softly, with a slightly melancholy look in his eyes and said: "When you marry someone, you become a member of your husband's family. Naturally, you and your wife are one body, with both prosperity and loss. damage."

Shen Ruoyan strongly disagreed with her words, "In order to help your husband's family, are you even ignoring your biological parents who raised you?"

"What can I do? I already have a child. Do I have to break up with them, abort the child, be expelled from the government, and be unable to hold my head up for the rest of my life?" Li Zhihan suddenly raised his voice and became very excited. Suddenly Then he remembered that he was the one who threatened Shen Ruoyan today, so why was she forced to lose his composure?
