I don't want to be the favorite concubine of this palace anymore

Arriving at Lingfeng Pavilion where Prince Rui lived, An Muxi calmed down. Since she was already here, she might as well make the best of it. She would treat it as if she had been bitten by a dog. After she got her share of the sketchbook, she would immediately find a way to escape from the palace.

This damn place is too damn dangerous. As a new woman who has received modern education, she cannot accept being used as a bed warmer.

Jianfeng reported to the inside and let An Muxi in.

An Muxi was stunned when she entered. In the hall, there was a young man sitting at the top and a middle-aged man sitting next to him.

Um, it doesn't look like she wants me to sleep with her? Otherwise, why would there be two men?

Although both of them look good, the one at the top has facial features as if carved by a knife, with sharp edges and corners, and narrow but dark and deep eyes. Although his face is expressionless, he makes people feel noble and majestic.

The other middle-aged man looked elegant and easy-going, and could be considered a handsome uncle.

An Muxi was confused and astonished. This was the first time she saw Prince Rui in his normal state. Although he was indeed handsome, she was traumatized by the first time he slept with her, so she could not feel any affection for this handsome man.

She thought to herself, King Rui wouldn't play such a big game, would he? Last time, she almost died with just King Rui, and this time there were two of them? ?

She also knew that when ancient nobles became extravagant, they would do many things that would shock your worldview.

Li Rui and Doctor Gao were also observing the woman in front of them.

This was also the first time Li Rui saw her since the last time he slept with her. Last time, Li Rui only remembered her tearful almond eyes.

This time I took a closer look at her. She had a slim figure, but still some good looks, a small face the size of a palm, fair skin, delicate features, almond eyes that gleamed with a lively light, and a plump cherry mouth that was light pink.

When Li Rui thought of this, he was also stunned. Why did he know that there was something secret? Suddenly, some scenes seemed to be recalled in his mind.

He couldn't help but cough awkwardly and said, "An, don't you know any rules and etiquette?"

An Muxi was shocked. After she came in, she had been thinking about all sorts of things for a long time and actually forgot that she was just a little concubine and her status in this palace was almost slightly higher than that of a servant.

You have to greet everyone you meet.

She knelt down immediately and bowed deeply: "I am your concubine, paying my respects to His Royal Highness Prince Rui. Greetings, Your Highness."

"Get up and talk."

An Muxi stood up quickly, knelt down and saluted Doctor Gao next to her, and then stood up straight.

At this time, Li Rui's deep and magnetic voice came again: "An, do you admit your guilt?"

An Muxi really broke out in a cold sweat now, thinking it was all over, it seemed like she could no longer hide the fact that she had left the house.

Just grit your teeth and admit it. It's not like you haven't been back. Besides, you haven't caused any trouble for the palace. What's there to be afraid of?

Then she knelt down again, and said in a choked voice: "I am guilty. I beg Your Majesty to be lenient with me because I once served you."

Li Rui didn't expect this woman to confess so readily. He still asked another question.

"Oh? What's your crime?"

"Today I ask the kitchen to buy something for me and take me out of the palace."

Li Rui didn't expect that she would admit to this matter. She was quite good at avoiding the important issues. The secret guards had already reported her leaving the house to him as soon as she came back, and he didn't intend to intervene.

Li Rui added: "Is that all?"

An Muxi panicked. What did Prince Rui mean by asking this? Was it possible that she had also been found out about poisoning Concubine Xu?

This shouldn't be the case. After she poisoned the patient, she looked around and saw that no one noticed her actions. If she admitted it, she would be done for.

Murdering a concubine is a serious crime. I haven't even shown my abilities and made a name for myself before I'm killed? I'm not willing to accept this.

She would never admit to poisoning him. Thinking of this, she raised her head and looked at Li Rui with tears in her eyes: "My lord, I have done something wrong."

Li Rui felt a little bit sorry for her when he saw her pitiful appearance. It seemed that he frightened her by questioning her suddenly.

"Then tell me, what else is wrong?"

"I have a hobby, which is to write picture books. Today I went out and got the picture books I made and contacted the bookstore. I want to sell them together and make some money."

Li Rui remembered the contents of the sketchbook that Jianfeng brought him last time, and veins popped out on his forehead. It seemed that he was still deceived by this woman's weak appearance.

She was very cunning, she had no intention of telling anyone about the poisoning, yet she even dared to bring up the matter of the sketchbook.

Li Rui gritted his teeth and said, "Is that all?"

An Muxi continued: "It's just that the content of the picture book is a little..."

She really couldn't continue speaking. She was afraid that if Li Rui saw the contents of the sketchbook, he would kill her with a knife.

Li Rui couldn't help but threw something directly to An Muxi's feet.

An Muxi took a look and realized that this was the book she had drawn, "I'll Pay for Tonight's Prince"? Li Rui had actually read it?

At this time, Doctor Gao couldn't bear to watch it anymore. He didn't want to see how the prince would punish him. He wanted to exchange medical skills with him. He quickly spoke up to help:

"Your Majesty, can we talk about other things later? Can you let me have a few words with Concubine An?"

Li Rui snorted coldly and said nothing, obviously agreeing.

Divine Doctor Gao asked in a gentle voice, "My concubine An, I wonder who poisoned the concubine?"

An Muxi was numb. These two people knew everything, but they kept acting with her for a long time. Was it fun?

She didn't want to pretend anymore, so she said directly, "Your Majesty, I wonder if I can sit down and talk?"

I knelt down twice as soon as I came in. The ground was very cold, okay? My knees are still hurting now!

Prince Rui almost laughed out of anger. This woman had done so many wrong things, yet she still dared to talk to him like that.

But seeing the pleading look in Divine Doctor Gao's eyes, he did not get angry. He just said coldly, "Stand up and take a seat."

An Muxi immediately stood up and took the seat below Doctor Gao.

Today, it seems that I can't go back. At the moment, I can't see the purpose of these two people, and they don't seem to have the intention to kill me.

Thinking of this, he became a little bolder. He looked at Divine Doctor Gao and asked, "What is your name?"

Doctor Gao smiled and said, "My last name is Gao, and I am known as Doctor Gao in Jianghu. Don't worry, I am just a little curious about the poison you gave to the concubine. I have never seen it before. I just want to know more."

An Muxi now had a clue in her mind. It seemed that the person who wanted to see her was the divine doctor Gao. However, she didn't want to tell outsiders that she knew medical skills.

Well, looking at the situation, if I don’t make things clear today, I’ll end up in trouble.

So he made up his mind: "I prepared the poison myself. My mother's ancestors were doctors and left behind a medical book. I have been interested in medicine since I was a child and have learned it."

Doctor Gao's eyes lit up: "Oh? I wonder if the medical book is still there?" He was very interested in this. Medical works that have not been published yet are very rare.

If there is, he must get it even if it costs him some price.

An Muxi must have known what Divine Doctor Gao was thinking, so she blocked his answer directly: "My servants set it on fire."

She added sadly, "My mother died early, my stepmother was not kind to me, and the servants at home also bullied me, so they took the medical book and burned it in the fire."

Doctor Gao almost died of anger and beat his chest and stamped his feet. He couldn't help but sigh and lament, these damn slaves, they don't know the value of things.

Li Rui watched the conversation between the two coldly from the side, and always felt that this woman was not telling the truth.

At this time, An Muxi said again: "However, I have written down the contents of that medical book."

Doctor Gao almost fainted, you should have just said it directly, which made him feel regretful and heartbroken for a long time.
