Chapter 53 Taking Control of Fate
Chunyuan didn''t understand what Chonglou was saying. She turned to Murong Jingxuan with a
shocked expression, "Xuan''er, just what is going on?"
"Great aunt, Yan''er has poison in her body, furthermore it''s poison she''s had since she was in the
womb. This poison can cause heartaches sometimes." Murong Jingxuan looked to Chunyuan and
exined with a serious expression.
Chunyuan stumbled backwards and was caught by Mu Zhimin. "Then is there a way to save her? Just
how much has Yan''er suffered?"
"Great aunt, for the time being, don''t worry. Yan''er is fine for now, but I''m afraid if we don''t find the
seven toxins, it''ll take her life." Murong Jingxuan lowered his gaze on the young girl lying on the bed.
He will definitely thoroughly investigate this matter. He too was very curious as to who would want to kill
an unborn child at the time.
"Great aunt, since sister Yan''er is unwell, how about let brother Jingxuan send her back?" Mu Zhimin
looked to Chunyuan and said, "I think mister Chonglou will definitely take good care if her."
Chunyuan look to Mu Zhimin and nodded her head, "Min''er is right. Xuan''er, you take Yan''er back, take
good care of her."
Chunyuan watched as Murong Jingxuan left, a single tear streaming down her cheek.
When Liu Shang returned, he saw that Su Qingyan was already gone. He originally wanted to ask Su
Qingyan a few other things, but what he got was the news of Qingyan''s poison.
"Liu Shang, you don''t need to worry. Brother Jingxuan can definitely cure her." Mu Zhimin looked to Liu
Shang with a gentle smile.
"Princess, do you know what Miss Su was poison with?"
Mu Zhimin shook her head, "I just remember mister Chonglou mention something about seven toxins.
Liu Shang do you know what Yan''er is poisoned with?"
"Seven toxin....." Liu Shang repeated these words over and over again many times, until he finally
remembered the so called ''Seven Toxin Five Flower Poison''.
Seeing Liu Shang''s perplexed expression, Mu Zhimin spoke, "Could it be that you know the name of
this poison?"
Liu Shang didn''t answer Mu Zhimin, instead he turned to Chunyuan Princess, "Your Highness, I may
need to return to the Thousand Beast Pavilion for awhile."
"Liu Shang, did something happen?" Chunyuan looked to him and asked anxiously.
Liu Shang shook his head, "I can find something that will save Miss Su''s life." With that said, he
disappeared without a trace.
Towards Liu Shang''s ability to disappear into thin air, Mu Zhimin was still very much impressed.
Especially since he always wore all white, which always makes people feel as if they''re dreaming.
As she recalled Liu Shang''s figure, Mu Zhimin happily grinned.

Murong Jingxuan carried Qingyan back to his manor. The entire way she was sleep talking, but he was
unable to make sense of what she was trying to say. And by the time he got back to the manor,
Qingyan''s body was gradually starting to warm up.
"Chonglou, what should we do now?" Murong Jingxuan looked to Chonglou and asked in a serious
tone.
"Master, there''s nothing we can do for now. We can only wait for Miss Su to wake up on her own."
Chonglou turned to Murong Jingxuan and replied, "Moreover, you know that the Seven Toxin Five
Flower Poison has been in Miss Su''s body for a long time. So to Miss Su, its damage is very severe."
"But doesn''t she still have the ghost ring scorpion?" Murong Jingxuan recalled the ghost ring scorpion
from before and asked, "Is there really nothing we can do?"
Chonglou looked to Murong Jingxuan and helplessly shook his head, "For now, there''s no other way."
Murong Jingxuan turned to Chonglou, to think that he would say something like. That meant there was
nothing they could do about the poison in Su Qingyan''s body for now.
But just what should he do at a time like this?
When Qingyan woke, she saw an unfamiliar ceiling. Her first reaction was that this wasn''t her
Yingshuang yard. When she tried to forcibly get up, she found that she didn''t have any strength in her.
Without a choice, she could only spit out the ghost ring scorpion in her body. At that moment, her
already pale white face appeared even more pale.
"Yan''er, you''re awake, how do you feel?"
When Qingyan heard this voice, she lifted her head and saw Murong Jingxuan''s familiar face. Seeing
that face of his, she sighed in relief.
"Oh it''s you."
She subconsciously felt that Murong Jingxuan was a trustworthy person. There were times when she
felt that if there was still someone she could rely on in this world, then that person was without a doubt
Murong Jingxuan.
"Your body is not as well as it was before." Murong Jingxuan sat down at the edge of the bed and
without even thinking, held her hand.
"You''re saying it like I''m about to die soon." Qingyan said in a nonchnt manner. "I know my own
situation. I''m already researching a medicine that will help control the poison in my body. There''s no
need to worry for now."
"This time when the poison acted up, it was practically a heart attack, why suffer like this?" Murong
Jingxuan spoke, as he reached up to stroke her hair with one hand. "To make enemies of second
house and third house isn''t good for you either."
"I understand." Qingyan looked up to Murong Jingxuan, "But if it wasn''t ast resort, then how could I
reach this point."
"You greatly showed off at the talent conference. Ning Siyao and Chai Yiyun won''t let you off so easily.
You need to be careful." Murong Jingxuan was unable to hold back his concern for her.
"Rest assured. Ning Siyao''s little schemes, I can still deal with." Qingyan said as she lightly smiled,
"This is my first time discovering that you''re not just some frivolous yboy."
"That is just to fool others. Since Hongjia Emperor wants me to loiter around the red light district that
much, then why would I not fulfill his wishes." Murong Jingxuan looked to her with a slight smile.
Murong Jingxuan, do you know the Nanchen former Empress?" Qingyan sat up on the bed and turned
to him with a smile. "Others all say that she was a country destroying ''demon queen'', do you think she
was?"
"I once heard from my mother that the former Nanchen Empress was her closest friend. Five years
ago, she died in a fire. As for the cause of the fire, even till now it''s still a mystery. Mother once said
that the former Empress was a strong willed woman; she couldn''t have killed herself." Murong Jingxuan
looked into her eyes and spoke word for word in a serious tone.
"She did kill herself." Qingyan met his eyes and faintly spoke, "I don''t mind telling you this, but I once
saw in a dream a woman in a bright yellow phoenix gown. I wasn''t able to clear see her face, but she
told me that she died very unjustly. She hoped that I could avenge her. That [Thousand Beasts and
Phoenix] tune was taught by her in that dream."
