The vicious character collapses in front of the villain husband
Chapter 8: Owl Shadow Tree
Everyone stopped immediately and looked at Mu Huo.
"Who is friendly with the Fox Clan?"
Everyone fell silent again. There were only a few people who were on good terms with the fox clan, but those people were snobbish and had the upper hand. If they were exposed and they were not punished and came back safe and sound, wouldn't they have offended the villains and would be finished?
Mu Huo knew what they were thinking, and said calmly, "The person who poisoned you is very thoughtful. He is a member of the Fox Clan who is jealous of you, so he set up this vicious plan to frame you, and he even wanted to use me to poison you."
Everyone below was shocked, some even cried out in surprise, and quickly raised their hands to cover their mouths. A whisper broke out in the crowd.
Mu Huo spoke again: "Of course, when something like this happens, the Queen will not stand idly by, and please be vigilant. Anyone who hides the person will be executed, and anyone who reports the person will be rewarded handsomely."
As soon as this was said, someone quickly stood up and said, "Your Highness, that, everyone knows it, so I won't hide it. Soldier number seven is Zhang San, and his brother is Zhang Da, and soldier number nine is Li Si."
Someone next to him interrupted quickly: "Hey, why are you mentioning him?"
Mu Huo asked coldly: "What's wrong?"
The man was startled: "Ah, Your Highness, this is what happened. This man was just found dead in the pharmacy. This..."
Mu Huo's eyes narrowed, "Take me to see it."
A few people did not dare to refuse and led the way to Li Si's room.
Li Si's small room was filled with blood, with half-dried blood stains splattered and flowing everywhere on the walls and the floor.
In front of the corpse, everyone couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses, not for any other reason, but because the smell of blood was too strong.
Li Si's blood was almost drained out.
Mu Huo looked at him indifferently, sneering in his heart.
Is this why you asked me to come to the pharmacy to arrest someone?
You killed someone before me, and now there is no evidence?
Never mind, I should have expected this.
"Tie up those who have close ties with the fox clan and the dead one together and send them to the Queen's palace. Also..." Mu Huo took out the antidote prescription that Elder Chong had given to Mu Ying, "Prepare ten doses of the medicine according to this formula."
The people in the pharmacy took a quick look at the prescription and felt that something was wrong. If the medicine was prepared in this way, the monster would be sick.
"Uh... Is this the medicine you want to prepare, Your Highness, or is it what the Queen wants?"
Mu Huo showed impatience and squinted at the person asking: "What? You won't give me what I want?"
"No, no, how could that be possible? I don't dare."
Mu Huo remained calm and said, "This is the recipe your majesty wanted. Don't ask any more questions."
Everyone in the pharmacy breathed a sigh of relief. If it was the Empress, she would also understand why she prepared something that was both a medicine and a poison. They quickly sent people to get the medicine and pack it up. They also selected a few laborers to send the plague-like Mu Huo out of the pharmacy.
Mu Huo brought the man to Mu Xiaoxi. Mu Xiaoxi only took a look at the man's body that was chopped into pieces by a knife and his demon pill, then waved his hand impatiently and asked Xiao Yao to bury the man.
Mu Ying was thinking about Xiao Huihui, who had not been watered for half a month. Although she was dragged out by Mu Huo, her heart was still with Mu Xiaoxi. As she walked, she looked back and stared at Mu Xiaoxi in the hall.
Mu Xiaoxi pretended not to see that look and just combed the hair on her tail, as if she was experiencing the feeling of being stuck to a relative's child again.
Children's obsession is especially strong.
The next morning, Mu Ying collected dew early and arrived outside Mu Xiaoxi's bedroom earlier than usual and knocked on the door gently.
Mu Xiaoxi looked up sleepily from the soft nest surrounded by nine tails and saw Mu Ying, whose face was pale.
"Did you get up too early? Why do you look so pale?"
Mu Ying felt unwell, and his internal organs felt heavy and sinking.
But Mu Xiaoxi didn't want to bring him to see Xiao Huihui because she was afraid of saying it out loud. So she just shook her head and said, "No, Ying'er is not feeling unwell. After mother finishes drinking the dew, we can go and dig Xiao Huihui away."
Mu Xiaoxi's nine tails drooped weakly, "Yeah, yeah, okay." I really want to sleep.
"From now on, you don't have to collect dew for mother anymore, and you don't have to pick fruits at night."
"But Ying'er wants to pick some for mother. Is the dew not tasty today?"
Mu Xiaoxi touched the little dog, no, the little cutie, on the head and said, "No, it's cool and moist, with a hint of nectar. It tastes good, but Ying'er should spend more time practicing."
Mu Ying had no choice but to nod in agreement with regret.
Fortunately, his mother did not refuse like she did last night, and soon brought him to the bedroom located at the edge of the Python clan.
During this period, I was punished every day. The pain was so severe that I fell asleep. I would dream of this courtyard at night. In my dreams, the days were still very comfortable and ordinary as before. But when I woke up, I was whipped because even the slightest breath would cause severe pain.
Before he reached the outside of the yard, he saw a towering tree. Mu Ying looked at it again and again and recognized that it was the sapling that was not even as tall as his knees half a month ago - there was still a nameplate he wrote for Xiao Huihui hanging on the trunk.
"Ah! Little Gray has grown this tall?"
Mu Xiaoxi looked up, and all she could see were thick tree trunks. She looked up again... and again, and finally saw the "small" gray tree crown.
On the straight tree trunks reaching towards the blue sky, the vibrant emerald green treetops swayed gently in the wind, making the tree look full of life. There was no sign of the tree withering to death as Mu Ying had worried about.
"Are we going to dig it away?" Mu Xiaoxi wondered.
Mu Ying also hesitated: "Well... Xiao Huihui, it was a small sapling before, so it was easier to dig..."
Mu Xiaoxi went forward to open the door. The small courtyard, which had not been occupied for half a month, was still very clean. The owl-shadow tree in the center of the courtyard almost blocked out the sun, making the already small courtyard seem even smaller.
"Qingqiao." Mu Xiaoxi had just called out when Qingqiao flashed in front of her.
When Mu Xiaoxi lowered her eyes, she saw Qingqiao in a dark green robe walking to her feet. This little demon Qingqiao followed her every day, and even if she couldn't see him sometimes, she could call him immediately.
He is a tool that any boss would like.
"Qingqiao, come and take a look. Is this tree a spirit?"
Qing Qiao also felt that the tree was different. He walked closer to inspect it for a moment and said with a strange expression, "This tree should be very young. It is indeed as the young prince said. It should be a sapling and has not yet grown into a monster. But according to the growth rate of the Owl Shadow Tree, it will never grow this big..."
Mu Ying asked Mu Xiaoxi timidly: "Mother, can we still dig up Xiao Huihui?"
"dig."
Of course it’s not for Mu Ying’s little wish.
Mu Xiaoxi held Mu Ying in her arms, let Mu Ying sit on her arms, and asked softly: "You said last night that this tree was planted in your father's eggshell, but he didn't let you mention this to irrelevant people?"
Mu Ying nodded and looked at Mu Xiaoxi with blinking eyes.
My mother suddenly whispered this, and I became a little nervous.
Mu Xiaoxi was confused as to what the villain was trying to hide. Since she had witnessed it, she might as well find out.
"Ying'er, this big tree is here and growing well. There's no need to dig it out, but it's growing too fast. Let's take a look and see if there's anything abnormal."
Mu Ying nodded obediently.
Mu Xiaoxi turned around and ordered Qingqiao to uproot the Owl Shadow Tree.
At this rate of growth, the roots would surely break the fragile eggshell, but unexpectedly, at the very end of the tangled roots, half of the white eggshell was still hanging intact.
“This eggshell…”
"Mother, this is father's eggshell. When I was a child, it was only half of it. I was very small at that time and I just loved to sleep in it. Father said that when I grew up and couldn't sleep in it anymore, I would put my head in it..."
Mu Xiaoxi put Mu Ying down and went to pick the eggshells.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the moment I touched the eggshell, I seemed to hear a distant, shrill scream.
