Chapter 41 Who Instigated
The next morning, Yue Fengyi vomited blood and fainted in public.

The entire Jiangyunxuan suddenly became a mess. Lianyue, Qingdai and Xiaoguizi exchanged glances and watched everyone's every move.

Sure enough, someone took advantage of the chaos to quietly leave Jiangyunxuan and headed straight for Hexiangyuan along the path.

Xiao Guizi watched her enter Hexiangyuan and then quietly turned back.

Qingdai went to the Imperial Hospital with great fanfare and shouted for help as soon as she entered the door, scaring everyone so much that they stopped what they were doing.

She spotted an old acquaintance among the crowd, then pulled his sleeve, grabbed the medical box and started running out.

In the third chapter, Doctor Zhao, who came to treat Nan Zhiyu, had a serious face and a lot of thoughts in his mind when he was dragged here.

When he saw Yue Fengyi lying on the couch, barely breathing, he didn't care about anything else. He just rolled up his sleeves and started taking his pulse through the handkerchief.

Doctor Zhao checked the left hand and the right hand, his brows were furrowed and his facial expression was very serious. After checking the pulse, he raised his head and asked, "Yue Fengyi, did you eat anything this morning?"

Lian Yue hurriedly brought over the bowl of medicine that had been almost empty last night, "This is the medicine that the young lady has been drinking. I don't know why it hasn't worked."

Doctor Zhao scooped some of the medicine with a spoon and sniffed it a few times. "Miss Lianyue, do you have any more of the medicine residue?"

Lian Yue directly brought the medicine jar in, "The medicine residue is all in here, Doctor Zhao, please take a good look at what caused my young master to be ill for such a long time."

Doctor Zhao took out some medicine residue from the medicine jar and sorted it out, then found the problem from the pile of pitch-black stuff.

"A small amount of rhubarb was added to this medicine. Fortunately, Yue Fengyi didn't consume much, otherwise, his life would be in danger."

Qingdai took out her handkerchief and started crying, "My lady, if anything happens to you, I won't live anymore~"

Lian Yue's eyes were red, "Please ask the imperial physician to save my young mistress!"

Xiao Luzi came to inquire about the situation, and saw that everyone in the room was crying. He also happened to hear the words "life is in danger", so he started running back, fearing that he would delay the prince's last meeting with Yue Fengyi.

When Chai Hui heard the news, he looked at Chongming Hall with some embarrassment. The prince was discussing matters with the ministers at the moment, so it would be inconvenient to disturb him!
When the prince picked up the teacup that had just been delivered, he found a note underneath it. He looked up at Chai Hui in confusion.

Chai Hui nodded quickly and gestured randomly with his hands, not knowing whether the prince could understand him.

After reading the contents of the note, the prince frowned and looked displeased.

The ministers below looked at each other in confusion. Was the prince dissatisfied with the opinions they put forward?
Otherwise, they could go back and discuss it again.

"Regarding the idea of war or peace between Southern Qin and Northern Vietnam, you should go back and think carefully about it before giving me an answer. If you are still so short-sighted as to only look at those little offerings for peace, then just go back to your hometown and farm."

After the prince finished speaking, he did not give the ministers a chance to answer and simply walked away.

In Jiangyunxuan, Doctor Zhao couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief after acupuncture and sat on a chair to wipe the sweat off his face. Unexpectedly, the prince suddenly appeared at this time, frightening him so much that he slid down from the chair and knelt on his knees.

Doctor Zhao quickly responded, "Your Highness."

"Get up and tell me what happened?" The prince walked into the inner room and saw the little girl lying on the bed with her eyes and eyebrows closed, her face pale, and a sense of brokenness that could not be grasped from her whole body.

After the prince heard the whole story, he opened his thin lips and said, "Go check it out for me!"

Chai Hui knew that this matter would not end well, so he quickly ordered people to investigate Jiangyunxuan from beginning to end.

Xi Que was brought before everyone. She shook her head in panic and said, "It was not me. I did not poison you. I am innocent."

"Who is behind you?" The prince, who was sitting on the upper throne, looked very majestic, playing with a small paper bag in his hand, making people dare not face him directly. "No, no one instructed me, it was me who had bad intentions." Xi Que leaned over and put her head on the cold floor, with a determination to die in her eyes.

Just as she was about to bite her tongue to commit suicide, she was discovered by Lian Yue, who stepped forward and pinched her cheek.

"If you don't tell the truth, I will send you to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation. If you don't tell me, I will chop off your toes one by one. If you still don't tell me, then..."

Lian Yue whispered softly in her ear, which sounded like the whisper of an evil spirit to Xi Que. She was terrified in her heart, and her body curled up and trembled.

"No, I don't want to go to the Ministry of Punishment. I'll tell you everything." Xi Que hurriedly explained everything he knew.

When the prince heard the word "Hexiangyuan", the small medicine bag had been squeezed out of shape.

"Take good care of your master. I will get to the bottom of this matter." The prince stood up and walked out. Chai Hui followed closely behind him and winked at Lian Yue.

After the hall was quiet, Qingdai threw the handkerchief in her hand on the table in disgust, "There's too much chili powder on it, it hurts my eyes."

Lian Yue burst out laughing, "So, it's better to pinch your own soft flesh as I said!"

Qingdai quickly waved her hands, "I'm not like you, a ruthless person."

Nan Zhiyu slowly opened her eyes and heard the two people arguing with each other and coughed twice.

"Look, your master is in trouble, and you two are still in the mood to bicker. You really deserve to be punished!"

Qing Dai quickly ran to the bedside and said, "My lady has been given a lot of injections by Doctor Zhao. Is it okay?"

Nan Zhiyu waved her hand and said, "I only took a small sip of the medicine. It's nothing serious."

Lian Yue was a little afraid to look up and meet her eyes. "Xi Que has confessed that it was someone from He Xiang Yuan who ordered it. After hearing this, the prince only said that he would find out the truth, and then he left with his men."

Nan Zhiyu lowered her eyes silently without saying a word.

"My lady, are you... okay?" Lian Yue asked cautiously.

Nan Zhiyu looked up at the cautious expressions of Lianyue and Qingdai, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Don't worry, what can happen to me? Didn't we expect this situation a long time ago?"

Qing Dai then patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, poured a glass of water and handed it over, "Your silence just now scared me to death. I thought you were angry about the way the prince handled the matter!"

Nan Zhiyu lowered her head, looked at the water in the teacup, and said in a quiet voice: "In the palace, right and wrong are not important. What matters is what His Royal Highness thinks."

He could protect Ming Zhaoyi once or twice, but if he did it too many times, it would always plant the seeds of doubt in the prince's heart. The moment this seed broke through the ground, Ming Zhaoyi would fall into the quagmire. "

The favor of a superior always comes and goes like the wind, making people confused. There is never a shortage of beauties in the East Palace. Who can guarantee that they will always be favored in the heart of that prince?
Nan Zhiyu's hidden little tricks were always well concealed and were not seen through by the prince.

Or maybe she was noticed, but the prince was fooled by her innocent appearance.

After being pampered by the prince once or twice, she could no longer tell whether the prince's feelings for her were genuine or fake.

No matter it is false, just acting, or something else, the play must be performed steadily.

If she can deceive for a while, she can deceive for the rest of her life!
