Chapter 928: The True Cause of Jiang Ying’s Betrayal

Upon hearing this, Feng Tianlan was stunned. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Rui’er. “Are you saying that not only has the Crown Prince taken the bewitching elixir, but Jiang Ying has as well?”
“That elixir was developed by Niang Niang herself, so she didn’t dare to give it to the Crown Prince indiscriminately. At that time, she couldn’t seduce Jiang Ying, so she gave him the bewitching elixir that she had made for the first time. It had a minor effect, but it wasn’t big. Later, he took it two more times, then fell in love with Niang Niang completely, and trusted her…”
After listening to Rui’er’s words, Feng Tianlan felt cold all over. She had been familiar with various Pill Refining Furnaces since she was a child, and she had also taught Shen Yunya Pill Refining Furnace, but she never thought that she would make such an insidious elixir herself.
And from Rui’er’s words, Shen Yunya had been making this kind of elixir for at least eight to nine years. That is to say, when she started teaching Shen Yunya Pill Refining Furnace, she already had that idea and had started to act.
And Jiang Ying didn’t betray her from the beginning. He was seduced. It was Shen Yunya who gave him the elixir that made him betray her and do such cruel things to her.
Suddenly knowing the true cause of Jiang Ying’s betrayal, Feng Tianlan didn’t know what to feel. However, after thinking about it further, she didn’t want to forgive him at all. If he had been more resolute, he would have only betrayed her instead of doing something so awful to her as well.
No matter what, he wasn’t strong-willed enough.
“Why was the Crown Prince okay?” Feng Tianlan took a deep breath, and her hatred for Shen Yunya became even greater. Her sinister thoughts had been developed unexpectedly early on.
Perhaps because she had started confessing, Rui’er started to feel a little more at ease. “Niang Niang guessed that it might have been the Crown Prince’s unwavering love for you that caused other effects. Or perhaps it was because the elixir hadn’t been administered long enough.”
Rui’er was originally an ordinary girl. Although her life was hard, she was always happy because of the presence of Brother Qi. She had been taught by Brother Qi that she must have a conscience and be gracious, so her life was normal.
But after a local tyrant r*ped her, the appearance of Shen Yunya changed her life’s trajectory. Every time she faced the upright and kind-hearted Brother Qi, she felt ashamed and her conscience hurt. However, because she had to repay the favor, she did a lot of things that went against her conscience. She became an accomplice to various evil deeds, and that made her feel that she wasn’t worthy of Brother Qi.
“What are the side effects of this elixir?” Feng Tianlan asked.
Rui’er shook her head. “I don’t know, but Young Master Jiang doesn’t seem to have any adverse reactions.” Perhaps the biggest side effect was that it made him go against his heart. If he awoke one day, it would be torturous.
“Is there an antidote?” Feng Tianlan asked.
Rui’er shook her head again. “It’s impossible for Niang Niang to make an antidote, and now that the Crown Prince is pampering Niang Niang, I’m afraid it’s starting to take effect on him as well.”
Listening to Rui’er’s words, Feng Tianlan suddenly remembered that on April 12, Xi Jin had taken poison to kill himself. Then, she and Mobai resuscitated him with their blood. After that day, Xi Jin had started to come to his senses, and later, he learned the truth from the state preceptor.
Could it be that, at that time, the effects of the bewitching elixir on Xi Jin were canceled and he gradually came to his senses?
“I’ve said everything I could, so you must keep your promise. You must not hurt Brother Qi, nor let him know what I did.” Rui’er looked up at Feng Tianlan. If Brother Qi found out, she would never be able to face him again.
Feng Tianlan raised her eyes to look at Rui’er’s delicate face. Rui’er expression was full of expectation. Feng Tianlan lightly let out an affirmative response, saying, “I’ve always kept my promises.”
