Chapter 891 A Woman Disguises Herself as a Man: His Royal Highness, Please Pamper Her Gently (23)

When Ning'er saw that the situation was not right, she was startled and quickly knelt down and cried: "Ning'er... Ning'er doesn't remember."

Luo Jinyan just hurriedly said softly: "Qing'er, Ning'er should have gotten these flowers from the housekeeper, about half a month ago, when she first came here!"

"Yes...Second Miss, these flowers were given to Ning'er by the housekeeper!" She cried even harder as if she had found someone to support her: "Ning'er... Ning'er doesn't know what she did wrong. Second Miss wants to do this to Ning'er." Er... Ning'er..."

Luo Qingchen ignored her, just stood up slowly and fixed his gaze on the table.

"Qingchen——" Seeing that she was about to stand up, Qianye'an pulled her sleeve and said, "What's wrong with you?"

It was the first time I saw her with such cold eyes. When she hit someone, it was like a gun burning her body, full of momentum.

But this was her first dinner since she came back, so she felt like something big was going to happen before she even started eating.

"You must not pull, otherwise you will be the enemy." Her eyes did not leave the desk when she said this, but Qian Ye'an knew that she meant that she could hear it.

He only felt that his hand lost strength in an instant and slid down softly.

She walked to the desk, slowly stood up from the incense burner at hand, and smelled it twice, and a faint scent of mint hit her nostrils.

"Second Miss, those are mint leaves..." Ning'er's expression became particularly nervous since she stood up. When she picked up the incense burner, she even stretched her neck unconsciously.

She didn't think there was anything familiar about the mint. Instead, she seemed to have seen the incense burner there.

The next second, she was seen lifting the incense burner slightly. Closing his eyes slightly, memories of the past seemed to flash before his eyes.

Ten seconds later, she opened her eyes suddenly, glanced at the orchid on the window sill, and then at the ashes in the incense burner, a look of solemnity suddenly flashed in her eyes.

This incense burner was a bonus plant from the Zuiyue Tower auction half a month ago, and the main object was the magic leaf of mint that had a miraculous effect on sleeping.

Peppermint magic leaves have miraculous effects on sleeping and restful sleep. But all medicines have advantages and disadvantages. This kind of mint magic leaf grows in the wetlands of the south. It is quite difficult to cultivate, and there are not many finished products.

Therefore, it is a treasure in the south, and it is even more popular in Kyoto.

At that time, she didn't listen too much to the host's introduction to the taboos of mint magic leaves. The only thing she remembered was that, due to the soil and climate, mint magic leaves should not be touched by orchids.

Otherwise, the two harmless things mixed together will form a terrible poison - mint orchid.

Long-term smoking will cause mental paralysis, cold hands and feet, general weakness, and eventually death from respiratory failure.

It seems that the Luo family didn't know that she went alone to the bidding of Zuiyue Tower. If she hadn't recognized the incense burner, she probably wouldn't have known how Luo Jinyan was poisoned.

"Mint leaves?" Luo Qingchen slowly walked up to Ning'er with the incense burner, looked at her with indifference and said, "Are you sure it's called this?"

Qian Ye'an took the incense burner in her hand, smelled it twice, and said with a slight movement of his eyebrows: "It should be mint leaves, but it's a bit weird."

The spices made from mint leaves do not have such a strong mint smell after they are burned out. This is known to all young ladies from wealthy families.

"Yes...yes...Ning'er...Ning'er is sure." Ning'er was obviously lacking in confidence, her face looked particularly pale, and her fingers began to tremble unconsciously.
