The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space - Chapter 2768

Chapter 2768: Chapter 2768: Unease (20)

Glazed Palace.

Xiao Jin has been keeping a very low profile lately, there’s no choice, the Gong Family has gotten into trouble, and the Emperor also harbors some suspicion towards her, she has no choice but to be low-key. Moreover, her son has repeatedly advised her to just live her life well and not to casually plot anything. Although she sometimes feels unjust for her son, who is clearly the most outstanding among the several Princes, far superior to the Crown Prince, yet isn’t destined for that position because he is not the legitimate firstborn, it is truly…

But she also knows, the path to fighting for that position is full of thorns, one wrong step and it’s irreparable.

Furthermore, her maternal family is not prominent either, her current status is entirely the result of her own scheming. Now, her family is all relying on her for their glory, which makes it even harder to become a support for her son, now it seems they’re only dragging him down.

So, when her son repeatedly admonished her not to act rashly, she truly became low-key.

However, the recent happenings in the palace gave her a vague uneasy feeling.

At this moment, Xiao Jin half-lay on a beauty couch, although there was an ice basin beside, and a palace maid fanning, she still felt very restless, somewhat uneasy sitting and lying.

Liluo brought in a bowl of ice: “Madam, to relieve the heat.”

Upon hearing the words, Xiao Jin sat up and took the ice bowl, hastily taking a big bite, which made her feel much more comfortable. However, before she finished two bites, an announcement came from outside: “The Emperor has arrived.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jin hurriedly got up to tidy her clothes, then went out to greet: “Your concubine greets the Emperor.”

Emperor Xuanjing glanced at the woman kneeling on the ground, didn’t tell her to rise, but directly walked to the main seat and sat down.

Eunuch Ping served tea and then sent all the servants in Glazed Palace away, while he personally guarded the palace door.

Without the command to rise, Xiao Jin did not dare to stand up, she could only kneel and turn her body, facing Emperor Xuanjing.

“Virtuous Concubine.” Emperor Xuanjing remained silent for a long time before starting to speak.

“I am here.” Xiao Jin hurriedly kowtowed, but her heart was raised high, because normally the Emperor never calls her by her title, but habitually calls her Jin Concubine.

“Do you know what I’ve been dealing with these nights?”

“I… I do not know.” Xiao Jin hastily shook her head, although she vaguely heard some rumors, she could not be sure, and naturally did not dare to speak about uncertain things.

“I have been bewitched.” Emperor Xuanjing got up and walked towards Xiao Jin, looking down at her from above.

“What?” Xiao Jin was stunned for a moment and disregarded protocol, looking up at Emperor Xuanjing, “Bewitched? Miaojiang people? But they’ve all left… if it really were them, they must be caught and punished… Have you called for the Imperial Physician? How are things now? Will it harm your body…”

Emperor Xuanjing frowned looking at the woman in front of him with her tense appearance, his heart somewhat softened, after all, the concern is not fake, but… he took out a box and opened it, inside the originally black little bug was slowly becoming transparent.

“Emperor, what is this?” Xiao Jin frowned.

“The poison on me was planted by the woman serving in bed.” Emperor Xuanjing squatted down, allowing Xiao Jin to see more clearly the poisonous insect in the box, “But that person must place the poisonous insect on her own body beforehand, and then do the most intimate thing with me. However, that person’s body would have the scent of the poisonous insect linger long, as soon as this insect senses that scent, it will turn from black to transparent…”
