The whole family is obsessed with love? The princess woke them up one after another.

The physician was hurriedly dragged over by a servant.

After quickly examining Earl Jingwen, the royal physician said anxiously, "Your Excellency, you...you've been poisoned."

"What?" After the initial panic, Uncle Jingwen's survival instinct kicked in. "Antidote! Give me the antidote!"

The physician hurriedly bowed and said, "My medical skills are insufficient; I cannot cure this poison."

Upon hearing this, Jing Wenbo immediately ordered, "Go find a doctor! Go find a doctor right now!"

If the doctors at the municipal clinic are no good, what about the doctors at the outside clinics?

The capital city has no shortage of good doctors!

The servant scrambled out to fetch a doctor.

Suddenly, Lady Jingwen knelt before Qi Zhiyu and begged, "Please, Your Highness, have mercy and bestow the antidote upon the Earl."

Princess Rui pulled her daughter, shielding Qi Zhiyu behind her, and asked, "What are you doing?"

"What does his poisoning have to do with my daughter?"

Lady Jingwen wept and said, "My lord has been perfectly well."

"As soon as the princess arrived, the lord was suddenly poisoned... this... this..."

"Just now, the princess said she was going to take the prince's life."

Princess Rui was furious: "Physician, did you clearly see the source of the poison?"

The royal physician hurriedly reported, "Your Highness, the Prince's poisoning came from the medicine he drank."

Jing Wenbo looked at his wife in disbelief.

Lady Jingwen cried out sorrowfully, "Your Highness, Princess, who would dare disobey your orders?"

This was her implication that the royal physician was lying because he feared the power of the Prince Rui's mansion.

Qi Zhiyu chuckled and said, "You don't need to worry about that."

"The Prefect of the Capital will be here shortly."

"He will make his own judgment on right and wrong."

Lady Jingwen's grief-stricken expression froze on her face, and she stared blankly at Qi Zhiyu.

When did Qi Zhiyu send someone to report to the authorities?

How come she didn't know?

If the Prefect of the Capital comes and investigates... what will happen to her?

Jingwenbo wasn't stupid; when he saw his wife's reaction, his heart skipped a beat.

"You're the one who poisoned me!"

Lady Jingwen cried out in protest, "My lord, how could this be?"

"I don't have any!"

"You are my everything. If you are gone, who will I rely on?"

Surprisingly, her words actually persuaded Uncle Jingwen.

However, Qi Zhiyu slowly and deliberately said, "Your death will only further incite the people."

"After all, the people would never allow my father to have a queen who murdered her father."

"If you were to punish my mother, my father would definitely object."

"No matter what choice I make, it will be fatal for my father!"

Jing Wenbo's face grew increasingly grim, and various thoughts flashed through his mind rapidly.

"Besides, it's not like all the money in the family will disappear when you die," Qi Zhiyu continued to reason with the facts.

As for the sudden loss of color in Jingwenbo's face, that was his own problem.

It's because he can't handle the pressure.

"From now on, your wife will be in charge of the Tang family. She has money, and she won't have to serve you, you old geezer. Isn't that wonderful?"

puff--

Jing Wenbo spat out another mouthful of blood.

This time, the blood that spurted out was a bit darker in color.

"Oh dear, why are you coughing up blood again?" Qi Zhiyu exclaimed in surprise, kindly advising, "You must take care of yourself."

"Your most beloved daughter is still in jail and hasn't come out yet."

puff--

After spitting out that mouthful of blood, Jing Wenbo felt as if half his life had been drained away, and he became completely listless.

This time, the blood has turned an abnormal black.

Even without consulting a doctor, Jing Wenbo knew that his poisoning had worsened.

"This humble official greets the Princess Consort and the Princess." The Prefect of the Capital arrived with his men.

Princess Rui nodded slightly: "Your Majesty, someone has deliberately poisoned this place."

After bowing slightly, the Prefect of the Capital went to investigate the case.

The poison was indeed in the medicine bowl.

Poisonous components have also been found in the dregs of medicine today.

As for the dregs from the medicine, they've all disappeared.

This will be troublesome if we investigate it.

More than the trouble of investigating the case, Jing Wenbo was concerned about his own health.

"You'll be bedridden from now on?" Jing Wenbo stared at the doctor in disbelief.

In addition to the doctor that his servant found from an outside clinic, the Prefect of the Capital also brought a doctor with him.

Several doctors reached the same conclusion.

Even after the poison was neutralized, his body could not fully recover, and in the end, he could only be paralyzed in bed.

"No, impossible!" Uncle Jingwen shook his head vigorously, refusing to believe it. "Quack doctors, you're all quacks!"

He'll be bedridden from now on and won't even be able to get out of bed.

How could he accept being treated like a living dead?

He held a large amount of silver in his hands, and had various beautiful concubines in his harem.

He can't enjoy any of it anymore!

He won't agree!

Absolutely not!

The doctors looked at Jing Wenbo helplessly. How could they be considered quacks?

He was poisoned himself, and they were able to treat him to this extent, saving his life—that's already quite good.

What else does he want?

However, the doctors did not say anything because of Jingwenbo's status.

But each of them was dissatisfied and did not want to stay any longer, so they all took their leave.

They even refused to accept the consultation fee.

Given Jing Wenbo's condition, if they were to ask for more consultation fees again, who knows what kind of madness he would throw.

For their own safety, they decided to consider the consultation fee as the paper money they had bought in advance for Uncle Jingwen!

"Everyone, wait a moment," Qi Zhiyu said, then instructed her maid, "Give the doctor the consultation fee."

The doctors were visibly taken aback.

"The Jingwen Earl's Mansion has no sensible people, but our Rui Prince's Mansion will not do such unreasonable things," Qi Zhiyu said with a smile.

The doctors quickly bowed and thanked them.

"You're too kind, everyone. It's only right that we pay you for your house calls," Qi Zhiyu said, as her maid had already given the doctor the payment.

Clearly, this is higher than their normal consultation fees.

After thanking them, the doctors left the Jingwen Earl's residence with smiles on their faces.

After they left, the doctors chatted casually with someone, seemingly recounting the incident in a relaxed manner.

When Jingwenbo was poisoned, not a single person in his household thought of paying for his medical treatment.

It was Princess Chen'an of the Prince Rui's Mansion who paid for it.

When Jing Wenbo was poisoned, he panicked. Wasn't his wife also incapable of making decisions?

Even if his wife forgot, does the steward of the Jingwen Marquis's mansion not even know that a consultation fee should be paid?

I hadn't realized before that the people from the Jingwen Earl's Mansion were so arrogant and domineering. They must have known that the doctors wouldn't dare ask the Earl's Mansion for money.

After several doctors shared their opinions, someone immediately brought up the fact that the people of the Earl of Jingwen's mansion had also oppressed the common people in the past.

There has been no progress in the case of Jing Wenbo's poisoning, but his family's reputation... is already ruined.

Jing Wenbo was naturally unaware of what was happening outside; all he wanted now was to avoid paralyzing himself.

"Go to the palace and summon the best imperial physician to examine Lord Jingwen." Qi Zhiyu handed over her waist token and sent someone to the palace to fetch the imperial physician.

Jing Wenbo looked at Qi Zhiyu in disbelief, tears welling up in his eyes.

His granddaughter still feels sorry for him!

He said that blood ties are something that can never be severed.

Qi Zhiyu smiled slightly at the excited Jing Wenbo.

How could he give up if the imperial physician wasn't invited to examine Jingwenbo?

She is a person who is always happy to help others.

Let the imperial physician come and confirm that Jingwenbo is indeed going to be paralyzed and become a cripple. This will save him from feeling uneasy and having all sorts of wild thoughts.
