Lin You, who was eating pastries, was almost choked when she heard her name being called. She could only force a dry smile and said, "I'm here to buy medicine today."

Everyone looked towards the source of the sound.

The old poison master was delighted the moment he saw Lin You.

The senior brother of this girl Hongkui turned out to be the woman who could reveal her true feelings and disguise herself as a man.

Since he is Hongkui's senior brother, he is my disciple.

The old poison master shamelessly came up with this idea.

[Tsk, this is going to be a misunderstanding. I just lied to support Hong Kui! ]

Upon hearing this, the old poison master, who was about to call Lin You his disciple, immediately changed his expression.

This palace?

Isn't that what the queen in the palace calls herself?

By the way, it seems that I once called myself this way in my thoughts just now.

Humph, since you are a member of the palace, how could you be worthy of being the apprentice of his old poison master.

"Master..."

When Hong Kui saw her master’s expression, she knew that he had reacted. She tugged at his sleeve, trying to take him away, but the old poison master snorted coldly and glared at her.

He lowered his voice and gritted his teeth, "You little girl, you actually had an affair with someone in the palace behind your teacher's back."

Hong Kui, "...Master, I didn't have an affair with him, it was him..."

"Humph, I, the old poison master, have traveled around for many years. Apart from Hong Kui, I have never accepted anyone else as my apprentice. May I ask who is upstairs? How dare you pretend to be my old poison master's apprentice!"

The old poison master stared coldly at Lin You upstairs.

Hong Kui panicked, "Master, he said that to save me."

She explained, but the old poison master seemed not to hear her. He just stared at Lin You fiercely, waiting for her reply.

Seeing this, Lin You raised her pretty eyebrows slightly, [What does this old man mean? Doesn't he understand what Hong Kui said? Well, if he doesn't understand, I will tell him myself.]

[It seems as if I really want to be his disciple.]

After hearing the last sentence, the old poison master's face became even uglier, and he almost collapsed. He jumped up and angrily scolded Lin You.

Humph, there is not a single good person living in the palace, especially the concubines in the harem. Each one is more cunning than the other, and very evil!

"Just now, the girl surnamed Pan and a masked man called dozens of guards and wanted to kill Miss Hongkui. I couldn't bear it, so I lied and said that it was Miss Hongkui's senior brother who saved her and he didn't have any other intentions."

Lin You spoke frankly and brought up the old matter to deepen the old poison master's impression of Pan Xue.

Pan Xue, who was left aside, became the focus again. Pan Xue felt pale when she received the fiery gaze from the old poison master.

Although she had bought drugs from the old drug master several times at the night market, the old drug master didn't recognize her at all because she was dressed differently every time she went.

Sometimes she would ask her maid to buy it for her.

She did this to prevent the old poison master from betraying her one day. After all, she said that all the poisons she bought from him were used to deal with people in the palace.

The fact is that this poison has killed many people.

Pan Xue shook her head and said, "We didn't mean to kill Miss Hongkui. It's just that her things hit me and we wanted her to apologize."

She couldn't provoke the old poison master, or she would not be able to buy high-grade poisons in the future. What would she do?

Moreover, what if Shen Yu discovered that his poison technique was only at a low level?

If that happens, he will definitely feel that he is less useful.

He will abandon himself completely.

"Humph, you clearly want to kill me." Hongkui sneered.

This woman was extremely annoying from the moment she saw her.

At first glance, he is cunning and shameless.

And what happened later also proved that she was that kind of person.

"Ahem." The hall master cleared his throat. "I've heard about this matter from everyone. It was Miss Hongkui's thing that accidentally hit Miss Pan's butt first. So Miss Pan was a little emotional and reacted a little too much, but she didn't mean to kill Miss Hongkui."

Having said this, the hall master approached the old poison master and lowered his voice, "On the contrary, the person who pretended to be your apprentice, the old poison master, doesn't look like a good person. With that demeanor, I think he should be from the palace. You have to know that people in the palace are the best at playing tricks."

The hall master couldn't hear Lin You's thoughts and didn't know who she was, but he knew that the old poison master hated people in the palace, so he had to use this method to divert his attention from Pan Xue.

The old poison master snorted when he heard this, "You don't have to tell me, I have eyes."

Hall Master, "..."

"The man above, what is your relationship with my disciple? When did you meet? What is your identity?"

The old poison master stared at Lin You with a sinister look.

It looked as if he had some grudge against Lin You.

Lin You was speechless, [This damn old man is clearly looking for trouble with me. ]

[Speaking of the system, have I ever offended him? Why is he so hostile to me?]

Not only Lin You thought so, Shen Jingan also had the same idea as her.

The old poison master's behavior is really strange.

The system checked and said, "Host, you have never offended this old man, but he hates people in the palace. He must have guessed your identity, so he wants to pick a fight with you."

Lin You raised an eyebrow, [Why does he hate people in the palace?]

【Hehe, this is a big melon! 】

The system's cunning laughter entered the old poison master's ears, and the old poison master's body shook violently.

What kind of thing is this imperial concubine, how could she know so much?

When they heard that the old poison master had something big to say, everyone pricked up their ears, and even Hongkui couldn't help but listen secretly.

She had always wondered why her master hated the people in the palace, and had asked him before, but her master was always mean to her and never explained things to her.

This time she had a chance to figure it out, so of course she wanted to listen carefully.

The most excited among them was Doctor You.

Haha!

As the saying goes, things change over time. The old poison master laughed at him just now, but now it’s his turn to laugh, haha!

[Hehe, this big news from the old poison master is related to the Queen Mother. ]

Whenever talking about big news, the system likes to whet people's appetite.

As soon as Lin You heard that this gossip was related to the Queen Mother, he almost jumped up with excitement.

He didn't notice at all that Shen Jingan's handsome face changed color.

Some people who heard the inner voice were so shocked that their eyes almost popped out.

Oh my god!

The old poison master actually had a connection with the current queen mother?

This is a shocking piece of news!

What could it be? Love? Or an enemy?

While everyone was imagining, the voice of the system sounded slowly.

[When the old poison master was young, he was once rescued from the river by the Queen Mother. Because he was only wearing a pair of underwear at the time, he thought that the Queen Mother had seen him naked and that he was the Queen Mother's man, so he followed the Queen Mother wherever she went.]

[At that time, in order to get rid of him, the Queen Mother tricked him into drinking a knockout drug, causing him to pass out. When he woke up, the Queen Mother was gone.]

[He searched hard and finally found her after a year, but he saw her on the wedding day of the Queen Mother and the late Emperor.]
