According to what the old mama said, Yu Wanqiao was not favored in the palace, and Xuanyuan Xuan would torture her all over her body with bruises and screams every time she went to bed.

Because Xuanyuan Xuan deliberately created an illusion of doting on her in front of others, everyone, including Yu Shang, thought that she was living a good life in the palace.

The reason why Yu Wanqiao was abused by Xuanyuan Xuan was because she was unwilling to betray Yu Shang and tell Xuanyuan Xuan anything about Yu Shang.

When Xuanyuan Qing was born, Xuanyuan Xuan hugged him personally. Because he had only a few offspring, he was overjoyed at Xuanyuan Qing's arrival. Even Yu Wanqiao and Yu Wanqiao lived a comfortable life for a few days because of his joy.

However, it was only for a few days.

Even before the confinement period was completed, Yu Wanqiao and Xuanyuan Xuan had a big quarrel because of the arrival of Concubine Lan, and were directly thrown into the cold palace.

"The second prince doesn't quite believe the story that the King of Southern Xinjiang sent his wife to the palace in order to get the Tourmaline Python. He has been conducting secret investigations over the years, but has found nothing." Mo An's face was solemn. This matter involves the palace. The secret is not that easy to find out.

"Back then, he used Madam's scroll to trick the second prince into the underground palace..." Mo An couldn't say the next words.

If he hadn't fought tooth and nail to break into the underground palace, the second prince would have been killed by the King of Southern Xinjiang...

Lan Jinyan was keenly aware that Yu Wanqiao didn't love Xuanyuan Xuan at all. It was impossible for her to be jealous because of Concubine Lan.

Moreover, Xuanyuan Xuan valued his children so much that even if Yu Wanqiao was angry, it was impossible for him to send Xuanyuan Qing to the cold palace and ignore him.

There must be other reasons for this.

"Mo An, I'm asking you about this matter today. I hope you won't tell your brother. I'm afraid his pride will be hurt."

She and Mo An made a tacit agreement to keep silent about that matter.

"I understand, Miss Yan, I heard that the King of Southern Xinjiang came to see you privately?" Mo An suddenly thought of something and hesitated to speak.

"Yes, what's wrong?" Lan Jinyan waited quietly for his explanation.

Mo An frowned and said carefully, "Young ladies should be careful about the King of Southern Xinjiang. He always does things casually. He may give you sweet dates one moment and kick you the next."

"Although he has unclean thoughts towards the second prince, he also gave him an ancient signal flare, which can save his life in times of crisis."

"On the surface, he deliberately lured the girl out, which indirectly saved her from the physical pain. Who knows if he had other intentions. The girl should think twice before acting in the future."

Is he trying to save me?

Lan Jinyan was extremely shocked.

"Okay, thank you, Mo An."

Leaving the darkroom, she went to the woods alone.

After the spring rain last night, the sunshine today is extremely bright, even a little dazzling.

Xiao Linzi said that the shy orchid is very delicate and cannot be exposed to the sun or rain, so it must be carefully cared for.

But why did she feel that the shy orchid looked particularly vibrant after being exposed to the wind and sun?

She came to squat in front of the green orchid, staring at its green leaves thoughtfully.

Don't look at the fact that there is only one shy orchid here. Under the sun, its unique smell is very strong. Just taking a slight breath will make you feel dizzy.

The color of the leaves is really beautiful, just like the color on Xiao Lu’s body.

Calculating the time, it should come out.

"Sigh~"

She looked up in confusion, and Xiao Lu was leaning down to look at her.

"Xiao Lu, when did you come out?" She was prepared for the unexpected, and she stood up and hugged it with joy.

Unexpectedly, it came to nothing.

He fell directly to the ground and was covered in dirt.

Ok?

"Little Green?" She got up and looked around

The grove was quiet and there was nothing.

Hallucination?

A white light flashed in her mind, and Lan Jinyan suddenly realized it and finally figured it out.

No wonder the shy orchid in the palace has to be kept in a dark place away from light. No wonder Xiao Linzi is the only one responsible for it.

There are just some things that need to be confirmed.

……

"Enter the palace?"

Xuanyuan Qing put down the official document in his hand and looked up at the woman standing in the middle of the study with confusion.

Lan Jinyan nodded solemnly, with a hint of solicitude, "Yes, brother, I need to go to the palace immediately about Shame Lan, quietly."

She emphasized the last three words.

"No, I will send someone to investigate the matter of Shame Orchid. You don't need to worry." Xuanyuan Qing thought for a moment and decisively refused.

Being so curious is not a good thing.

What's more, his father seemed to have ulterior motives for her, and he wouldn't trust her to enter the palace no matter what.

Lan Jinyan didn't expect him to deny it so quickly. She walked around the table and sat down on his lap.

Her little hands held the black hair behind him, and she kept acting coquettishly and cutely.

"Brother, if you go with me, why don't you worry? I promise to be obedient and not cause you any trouble."

"Besides, let's find out Concubine Lan's conspiracy as soon as possible and nip it in the bud."

"If not, just add it one more time in the future."

Her face was red, her sweet voice whispered in his ear, and her warm breath hit the side of his neck, making him feel hot and tingling.

Every time at the last moment, he would stop and let her help him.

In the end, he let her go only after she was tired and begged for mercy.

He didn't believe it if he added one more time, it was strange that she could bear it.

"Go and get ready. We will enter the palace as soon as it gets dark."

Believe it or not, her words succeeded in pleasing him.

"Great, brother agreed."

Lan Jinyan kissed him several times on the face excitedly, jumped off his legs quickly, and ran back to Hengshui Residence in a hurry.

That night.

After checking the condition of Shame Orchid, Xiao Linzi turned around and returned to his residence. As soon as he entered the door, he was so frightened that he screamed.

"Ah, what a big rat, come here, come here."

He crawled out of the room, and the little eunuch next door was not surprised when he heard his exclamation.

"Xiao Linzi, you've made your old habit again. There are no mice here."

"Yeah, there's rat poison inside and out."

"Really?" Xiao Linzi wiped the sweat from his forehead as if waking up from a dream.

"That's not true. You are just too nervous because of the accompanying driver."

"Sorry to bother you, I've had this problem for more than ten years."

Xiao Linzi also knew his situation, and after apologizing to them one by one, he returned to the house in despair.

Two black figures left the corner.

"Brother, Xiao Linzi's condition is probably caused by daily exposure to shame orchids."

Xuanyuan Qing took Lan Jinyan all the way to the Imperial Garden. He could see clearly what happened just now. There was really nothing in Xiao Linzi's room.

The only explanation is the hallucination.

"The hallucinogenic effect of the shame orchid is very powerful, so she only let Xiao Linzi be responsible for it because she was afraid that over time, people would discover the effect of the shame orchid."

"Keeping the orchid in a dark place should be to reduce its hallucinogenic effect."

The higher the temperature, the faster the fragrance diffuses and the stronger the hallucinogenic effect.
