CH 216 The Death of Queen Hua
Xiao Feng and the others were already in the central pavilion, though, he was with Feng Xi sitting in the back yard while the others were practicing in the cultivation room and he had already asked Sun Xie to investigate people in every town or village in the Youngzhou region who matched the face sketches obtained from the healer's notebook in the dark market.
"The taste is true there is a poison that is not detected by the silver needle" Xiao Feng said as he looked at the needle that had been dipped in the poison. Feng Xi also observed, out of curiosity he was dripping onto the apples. Soon the red apple suddenly blackened and decayed.
"Hi see this is true deadly poison" Feng Xi exclaimed, Xiao Feng looked at the rotting apple.
"I didn't think there really was a deadly poison like this, what was the purpose of the person who made it" Xiao Feng murmured. Soon Sun Xie had come back he brought the paper and handed it to Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng accepted it then Sun Xie returned to his place.
Xiao Feng opened the paper and was surprised.
"What's wrong?" ask Feng Xi
"It has been found, after my mother died 15 years ago there was a servant who left the palace. His clothes, face and features are the same as the sketches in the healer's notebook in the dark market and to my surprise he is still alive" Xiao Feng said.

To the east of the capital Youngzhen, about 12 kilometers from the capital there is a small village beautiful and cool because it is under a hill. A middle-aged woman in her 40s was walking towards a small house in her hand carrying a bag of vegetables. It seems that the woman came home shopping from a market located not far from the village. Not long after the woman arrived at the small house, she opened the door and went inside. But he was surprised by a young man sitting in a chair.
"Who are you, why my house?" he said as he walked back to the door, but someone closed the door and the woman saw that the one who closed the door was a beautiful girl. The woman was surprised.
"Xuji's poison, Queen Hua" said the man who was none other than Xiao Feng.
"I don't understand what you mean" said the woman stammering.
"It seems that you don't want to see your husband and son anymore" Feng Xi said as he showed the children's toys and walked up and stood next to the seated Xiao Feng. The woman was startled and dropped her groceries then knelt down in front of Xiao Feng and Feng Xi.
"Please Young Master and Young Miss do not hurt them"
"You're just a little guy who's taken advantage of, you can live until now meaning you don't want to die anyway you still have a husband and children. How much a child would suffer if he lost his mother" Xiao Feng said coldly.
"I will say it" said the woman, prostrating tears on her cheeks.
"That year I was greedy for the money that Queen Xiao Lian gave me and was ordered to buy medicine on Chengxi's dark market. But I don't know what this medicine will be used for. Then Queen Hua died of illness then I realized the possibility of this, and then I left the palace in a state of fear" she said.
"Then you learned of Queen Lian's secret, why didn't she kill you when she left the palace?" asked Xiao Feng
"There was someone who saved me" the woman replied
"who?"
"I don't know"
"SAY WHO!!" yelled Xiao Feng.
"I really don't know" the woman said and returned in tears, Feng Xi rubbed Xiao Feng's shoulder to calm him down. Xiao Feng sighed violently.
"Continue!" said Xiao Feng after slightly easing his anger.
"Then nothing else happened, I thought no one knew about this anymore, still I couldn't escape" she said. Xiao Feng and Feng Xi were silent for a moment.
"Sorry Master and Young Miss, who are you?" ask the woman fearfully.
"Queen Hua's Son!" xiao Feng said, as if hearing the woman's lightning voice aghast in shock and fell down and she immediately prostrated herself again.
"Please Second Prince, I always feel guilty, please second prince forgive" the woman said in tears
"I let you live because you're still useful!"

"What are you doing here, yesterday I sent word that Young Master's plan failed were you sent to give me a new plan?" ask Prime Minister Wang.
"Young Master Ling didn't expect his plan to be thwarted by Xiao Feng so Young Master told me to give you a new task he wanted you to act to dismantle Youngzhou's old case" the young man said
"I obey Young Master's orders, but is Young Master sure that he will conquer Youngzhou?!" the Prime Minister Wang
"Just Youngzhou is easy, for example, you're not all aware that you're a Huangzhou spy and Young Master Ling's person who was infiltrated a long time ago and it's time for you to move" said the young man.
"Wait can I still see my mom?"
"As long as you do your job well, you'll be home soon and see your family" and soon disappear from the residence. Not long after a bodyguard came to give a report.
"Prime Minister Wang's report, the Second Prince has already discovered Duan Xianming's whereabouts" the bodyguard said in a statement. Prime Minister Wang sighed
"Hmm sooner than I thought, well since it has happened we should hurry because the Third Prince has already prepared his troopsx
"Good Sir"

Xiao Feng was now in his house he was sitting in a chair under a shady tree while daydreaming about his memories with his mother as a child, on the table there were many bottles of wine scattered. Someone noticed it from a distance and approached it. That person was none other than Feng Xi.
"What are you thinking, tell me" Feng Xi said as he stroked Xiao Feng's shoulder and sat down in front of him. Xiao Feng looked at Feng Xi with a smile.
"I'm thinking about the past, why my life is always trapped by other people. When the trap was almost uncovered I finally realized why so many people were afraid and envious of me" Xiao Feng said with a sigh, he picked up the wine on his desk but Feng Xi immediately held it back.
"Don't drink anymore"
"Just I don't know, whether father knows this or not, if he knows from the beginning what I have to do" Xiao Feng said, Feng Xi held Xiao Feng's hands together.
"What happens next, we'll deal with it together, I'll help you!" said Feng Xi while smiling sincerely at her beautiful face. Xiao Feng held Feng Xi's hand back.
"Xixi, I won't let them succeed!" xiao Feng said, the two looked at each other with smiles engraved on his face, Xiao Feng brought his face closer towards Feng Xi. The girl closed her eyes nervously while squeezing Xiao Feng's hand and in another instant the desired beautiful thing would happen,, Yuan Li suddenly appeared.
"Prince!" yuan Li said
Xiao Feng who was a little more managed to close his eyes while sighing. The shocked Feng Xi opened his eyes and looked at Yuan Li then looked the other way with a reddened face, Yuan Li only scowled then scratched his non-itchy head.
"Yuan Li if the thing you're about to report is not very important be prepared that you won't receive a salary for a year!" said Xiao Feng coldly. Yuan Li gulped his saliva knowing he had come at an inopportune moment.
"Prince, I've been protecting Duan Xianming and his family, it's just that the case of the late Queen Hua has been very long I'm afraid we'll find it difficult to find evidence" Yuan Li said, Xiao Feng listened
"This time we have proof with Xuji's poison, I am sure that with the investigation of the Black Crow pavilion we will find out the truth" Xiao Feng said
"Really Prince!"
"One more time, watch Xiao Jun's residence closely should he have returned from the west considering he failed to meet Ling Xu Yuan"
"Good"
