Soon after, Moqi Sui came back. Although he didn’t say anything, but his face was haggard, he must have not slept all night.

Chu Ci quickly welcomed him and secretly peeked at this person, wanting to see from his face whether he had been stimulated by Moqi Yan’s death to restore his memory.

However, although Moqi Sui’s face was haggard, but it was caused by not sleeping. The signs of memory recovery were not visible at all.

Moqi Sui noticed that the person in front of him was secretly observing his behavior, and said softly, “I’m fine, I have long been prepared for Imperial Father’s death in my heart.”

Seeing that the other party took the initiative to explain, Chu Ci withdrew his inquiry eyes.

It turned out he had prepared in his heart.

Thinking that there was obviously the system in his side, but he still need to guess himself, Chu Ci couldn’t help but complain, “System, why don’t you have mind reading?”

The system didn’t answer his question and suddenly said, “Be careful, Xiang Xiyue will soon come to the crown prince’s palace, she is bring poisoned food.”

Chu Ci startled and forgot what he had just complained about, “The emperor just passed away. Moqi Sui is now the next emperor in a justified way. He also still like Xiang Xiyue. Why she still want to help Moqi Shan? Did she really love that person?” At the same time, he was thinking about how to block this woman.

The system said, “This is not the case. After yesterday’s affairs, she seems to understand that her position in Moqi Sui’s heart is not as good as in her childhood, so she planned to take advantage of the emperor’s death. Her food is actually secretly poisoned by the second prince. After the emperor passed away, the second prince who want to be an emperor can’t wait, so he go to this extreme. You quickly help block it down. If you don’t help, the target will be dead this time.”

As soon as the system was finished, Chu Ci quickly looked outside, thinking about stopped Xiang Xiyue before she came in. Unfortunately, the distant Xiang Xiyue had already in contact with two palace maids. Now he can’t deceive her by saying the crown prince is not present.

The two palace maids behind her held a plate in their hands, which contained delicate food.

Because of the emperor’s death, Xiang Xiyue also wore plain clothes.

Chu Ci had waiting at Moqi Sui’s side these days, so he doesn’t need to withdraw even if Xiang Xiyue came.

“His Highness, I heard that you have been worrying about Your Majesty’s affairs all night. This servant can’t share your worries and can only prepare some small side dishes for you in person. I hope that His Highness will not dislike it.”

Chu Ci said to the system, “Her tone is really look like she has reflected.”

The system quickly advised, “You can rest assured.”

After speaking, Xiang Xiyue turned around and let the palace maids to put down the things in their hand in front of Moqi Sui.

However Moqi Sui just glanced at it, and didn’t take action to eat.

Chu Ci looked at the food and soup in front of him and quickly asked the system, “Which one is poisoned?”

System: “Everything, except rice.”

Chu Ci was speechless and said, “I think this second prince become crazy because of the throne.”

Moqi Sui had been exhausted by the death of his imperial father. At the moment, he had no appetite.

When Xiang Xiyue saw Moqi Sui refused to move his chopsticks, she immediately changed her face and her tears kept come down without warning. She said grievously, “Is His Highness still angry about this servant’s exceeded behavior yesterday? Unwilling to forgive this servant?”

Chu Ci nervously looked at the food in front of him and was a little worried. At the same time, he was thinking how to let Moqi Sui know that the food was poisonous.

Anyway, it was the most unwise way to stand up directly. The more you know, the more likely you are to be suspected.

Chu Ci suddenly thought of an idea, he quickly asked the system to verify, “System, if I eat this poisoned things, do you think I can still live?”

The system was silent for a moment, before saying, “Although people will definitely die if eating poison, but with your primordial spirit, it’s still a bit difficult for it to kill you.” The system stopped speaking and said, “What do you want to do?”

Chu Ci said mysteriously, “I suddenly have a bold idea. Isn’t there a sentence called to fight desperately when confronting mortal danger. Since Moqi Yan’s death is not enough to stimulate Moqi Sui, then I can only try to sacrifice Xiang Xiyue. Currently, only this woman is the most important to him besides the emperor. If he knows that his favorite person poisoned him, the stimulation will be great. Anyway, I will not die.”

After Chu Ci finished talking to the system in his mind, he took the chopsticks that Xiang Xiyue put at the side and said to Moqi Sui, “His Highness, let this servant try this private food first. You are now distinguished status. There must be no mistakes.”

Xiang Xiyue looked at Chu Ci’s sudden movements, she first stunned and then her face full of anger.

She scolded, “Do you suspect that I will poison His Highness? Why is your mind so malevolent.”

Chu Ci didn’t mind and said, “I’m just worried about His Highness’ safety, nothing more.”

After saying that, he didn’t wait for Moqi Sui’s response and immediately took a bite of food, and then scooped a spoonful of soup to drink.

Xiang Xiyue didn’t expect that this little eunuch to be so courageous. She looked at Moqi Sui, seeing that he didn’t stop him, she said, “His Highness, do you also doubt me?”

“He just concerns about me.” Moqi Sui didn’t blame Chu Ci, instead he began to speak for him. But, he also educated, “A-Ci, you are not allowed to do such testing food in the future.”

Chu Ci happily said in his heart, “Just this sentence you said is worth this meal I eat!”

Moqi Sui knew how powerful his hidden enemies in the palace were. Poisoning might actually happened, but he felt uncomfortable to let A-Ci testing the food.

Seeing no complaints, Xiang Xiyue gritted her teeth and allowed this little eunuch to taste her carefully made food first.

It didn’t take long for all the food to be try, and Chu Ci’s stomach began to feel uncomfortable.

“System, this poison is so powerful!”

System: “I really don’t know what to say to you.”

Chu Ci complained happily, “My stomach hurts.”

Xiang Xiyue had been waiting for this person to finish eating before scolding him. She looked at this little eunuch and suddenly found that his appearance was a little wrong. When she saw the blood at the corners of his mouth, she promptly looked at the things that she brought with unbelievable face.

Chu Ci felt a heat flow from his chest, and then he raised his hand to wipe the corners of his mouth. He put it in front of his eyes and found that the back of his hand was full of blood.

When Moqi Sui found that Xiang Xiyue’s expression was not right, he quickly turned to look at the person next to him. He had just seen him fall down, the blood on the corners of his mouth and the back of his hand was particularly dazzling.

“Ah!”

Chu Ci was still conscious, and Xiang Xiyue’s scream almost pierced his eardrums.

He frowned hard, and quickly said before he lost consciousness.

“His Highness…you…you are ok…okay, I…I’m happy…” After Chu Ci said the crucial point, he spitted out a mouthful of blood, and then really fainted.

“Someone! Quickly call imperial physician!”

After two shouts, the entire crown prince’s palace was in disorder.

Xiang Xiyue quickly knelt down and said, “His Highness, I really don’t know that the food is poisonous, it has nothing to do with me!”

Moqi Sui was no longer in the mood to pay attention to this woman. He carried Chu Ci in his arms and walked to the bedside.

When Xiang Xiyue saw Moqi Sui doesn’t believe her, she quickly pulled his robe and said, “His Highness, this servant really doesn’t know, it must be someone framed me up.”

Moqi Sui said coldly, “Get out!”

Xiang Xiyue subdued by this bellow, she let go of his clothes and sat there in a daze.

She stared blankly and recalled the memories of her being approached by someone on her way to here, and suddenly understand.

Xiang Xiyue got up from the floor and walked out, the direction she went was precisely the residence of Moqi Shan.

Moqi Sui put Chu Ci on the bed. Looking at the blood that constantly came down from the corners of his mouth, he suddenly getting panicked, and also afraid.

I should have stopped him from testing the food, why did I neglect this hidden danger at that time just because I enjoyed this person’s concern for me.

He knew that Xiang Xiyue had no courage to poison him, but he forgot that someone would borrow a knife to kill.

He doesn’t know whether it was because of excessive nervousness, Moqi Sui’s head suddenly ached violently.

When the imperial physician rushed to the sleeping quarters, he saw Moqi Sui kept knocking his head.

“His Highness, do you have a headache? This small official will help you to take your pulse.”

Moqi Sui pulled the imperial physician to the front of his bed and said, “Save him! He is poisoned.”

It was only then the imperial physician discovered that a man in eunuch clothes was lying on the bed of His Highness the crown prince.

He checked this person’s breath and quickly said, “What did he eat? Can His Highness let this small official take a look at it?”

Moqi Sui said, “The dishes and soup on the table.”

He looked at the person with a pale complexion on the bed, and his head was getting more and more painful, and couldn’t help shouting, “Hurry up! He is poisoned! Give the antidote soon, he can’t die!”

After the imperial physician smelled the food on the table, he quickly took out a small porcelain bottle from the medicine box, and took out a handful of black pills and put them into the little eunuch’s mouth, and then closed his mouth to let the pills enter his stomach.

After doing this, he turned around and said, “His Highness, forgive this old official to talk bluntly, the poison in this eunuch didn’t have the antidote. It’s actually miracle for him to still has a breath until now. This old official can only give him this medicine to neutralize a bit of toxicity, the rest can only be up to destiny.”

The imperial physician’s words made Moqi Sui’s heart fall to the bottom. He looked up at the dying man on the bed and suddenly felt a burst of sharp pain in his head. Immediately afterwards, he fainted.

****

Chu Ci’s current state was exactly the same as when he entered the body of a person in a vegetative state in the previous world. He was staying in the darkness without light. Fortunately, the system was there.

He proudly said, “System, how do you think of my performance? Do you think my little beauty will be stimulated by Xiang Xiyue’s poisoning and then recover his memory? Now I thinking carefully about my method, it’s really too clever. Xiang Xiyue’s poisoning caused Moqi Sui to become disheartened, and then he recovered his memory and found that he likes me. When he saw me poisoning in bed, he will let the previous enmity pass!”

The system said, “Do you think Moqi Sui’s intelligent is fake? His like for Xiang Xiyue has long been not as ignorant as when in his childhood, and there are some affairs in his mind.”

“What? Can it be that Moqi Sui know that Xiang Xiyue is not the one who put the poison in the food?” Chu Ci said angrily, “I have suffer so much, don’t tell me that Moqi Sui’s memory still can’t be recovered!”

System: “I don’t know.”

“Humph humph!” Chu Ci could only hum, he settled for second best and said, “Then, he should be very moved since I test the poison for him, and then fall in love with me again, right? Anyway, I was moved to cry by myself.”

System: “See it yourself if you want to know.”

Chu Ci: “How long will I stay here?”

System: “Ten days to half a month.”

“Hehe, I don’t believe it, I remember you said the same thing in the previous world.”
