Chapter 617 Didn’t they say that the prince was poisoned?

"General Wang's secret?" Xiao Jiuyue raised an eyebrow and casually guessed, "Could it be that he likes men?"

"cough."

Luo Kui choked on her own saliva. She cleared her throat and said, "Princess, if this is the case, how can it be considered a meritorious service? I discovered that General Wang has a secret way."

"Impossible." This was Xiao Jiuyue's first reaction. She said, "If there really was a secret passage, General Wang wouldn't have been captured."

"Princess, it's not the kind of secret passage leading out of the city, but he has hired assassins!" Luo Kui simply told what she and Guo Sheng had discovered in one breath.

When she and Guo Sheng were preparing to dig lotus roots, they ran into General Wang's confidant. She and Guo Sheng decided to go all out and followed him directly. They were shocked when they saw him!

In addition to the army he had, General Wang also had assassins.

"We were almost discovered, but luckily..." Luo Kui said awkwardly, "Thankfully, Guo Sheng took me and hid me in a commoner's house. I disguised myself as a peasant woman and was able to escape."

Xiao Jiuyue looked at Luo Kui's red face and thought, it might not be as simple as disguising herself as a peasant woman?

Perhaps, pretending to be a couple?

Xiao Jiuyue's thoughts wandered, but she quickly regained her focus and asked, "How many people are there?"

"There are ten of them." Guo Sheng arrived a step late and said, "These assassins don't seem to be following General Wang's orders directly. Instead, they are urging General Wang to do something."

"In broad daylight?" Xiao Jiuyue pondered for a moment before asking, "Although General Wang is fond of showing off, he went to meet the assassin in broad daylight, and you guys even caught him. This is definitely unusual."

"Princess, do you mean this might be a trap?" Guo Sheng asked worriedly.

"Oh no, the prince is injured." Guo Yang helped the injured Prince Ling back, and for a moment, everyone became nervous.

They themselves knew that Prince Ling was fake, but others didn't know.

Soon, Doctor Xiao Wang, who had been acting as a military doctor, arrived. Seeing the wound on Prince Ling's chest, he said, "The other party wants to kill you, Your Highness!"

Doctor Wang looked at the arrow that had hit his chest and examined it carefully before saying, "It's a hooked arrow, and it's poisoned."

Yingqi was lying on the bed with dark lips.

"Master, you must save him." Xiao Jiuyue looked at Ying Qi worriedly. If he hadn't been disguised as a prince, the prince would have been the one who got hurt.

"Princess, the person who killed me was Prince Duan's secret guard." Ying Qi covered his wound. Even though he was seriously injured and his life was in danger, he mentioned a few signs that only secret guards had. They had also dealt with Prince Duan's people.

"Okay, now listen to the doctor and take good care of your injuries. You will be fine." Xiao Jiuyue said comfortingly.

Ying Qi was treating his wounds in the next room. Xiao Jiuyue didn't hear a single cry of pain from him the entire time, but she knew very well that the prince must be in pain. She said, "Luo Kui..."

"You should take a shower and change your clothes first. Donggui, ask Mother Yu to make some soup for Yingqi later."

Xiao Jiuyue gave the order while sitting in the living room. Outside, waves of people came, all wanting to inquire about the prince's news. It was not until General Qin arrived that Xiao Jiuyue asked, "What's the situation now?"

"Princess, the prince was shot in public, and the secret guards were shouting that the prince must die. I'm afraid everyone wants to come and see how he's doing." General Qin blamed himself and said, "It's all my fault. After winning the battle yesterday, I relaxed."

He was really excited after capturing the Second Prince of Xijiang for the second time. The Xijiang soldiers retreated in disgrace, which made General Qin feel that they would win this battle.

"Don't blame yourself. This is a carefully planned trap. The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light. How can I understand?"

Xiao Jiuyue asked, "Who does General Qin think the other party is? Who wants to harm the prince?"

"This..." General Qin shook his head hesitantly: "Everyone is a suspect."

"General Wang is the most suspicious this time. Moreover, Prince Xijiang has suffered such a great loss, so he might send assassins." General Qin expressed his suspicions.

Xiao Jiuyue nodded slightly, listening to General Wang's voice outside: "We want to see the prince. The prince is so seriously injured and poisoned. We want to see the prince!"

"General Qin, I'll be relying on you later." Xiao Jiuyue looked at General Qin and said, "Take them to see the prince later."

"Isn't he seriously injured? Poisoned?" General Qin was worried. He was afraid that this sight would make everyone even more agitated.

"Who said the prince was poisoned?" Xiao Jiuyue led General Qin to see Jun Lie. Jun Lie's face looked a little pale because he hadn't seen the sun for a long time. He lay there as if he was in a coma. He said, "Just make them believe that the prince is not poisoned, or that the poison has been cured."

Xiao Jiuyue went to the next room, where Ying Qi was poisoned and Doctor Xiao Wang was trying his best to treat him.

"Yu'er, this poison requires several more herbs to cure it, and Jiashui City doesn't have any." Doctor Wang mentioned two herbs in a row and said, "If these two herbs don't arrive, I'm afraid Yingqi won't survive more than seven days."

"Master, don't worry. I will definitely be able to get the medicine and cure Ying Qi's poison within seven days."

Xiao Jiuyue solemnly promised, and she said a little embarrassedly, "Master will have to go to Jun Lie and convince General Wang and the others that the prince is not poisoned."

"It's okay." Doctor Wang waved his hand and went to see Jun Lie next door. He would come here every day to check Jun Lie's pulse. Looking at Jun Lie who looked calm as if he was asleep, he thought: If this kid doesn't wake up, Yue'er will lose a lot of weight!

Pregnancy is obviously the hardest part, but she has lost a lot of weight due to all the running around these days.

"Didn't they say that the prince was poisoned?" When General Wang entered the room, he thought he would see the prince with black lips. However, he found the prince lying on the bed, looking a little weak, as if he was asleep.

"What's the big deal about the little poison that the prince got?" Doctor Wang said nonchalantly. His body was stained with blood from the arrow wound on Ying Qi's body he had just treated, and he had a strong smell of blood on him.

General Wang always felt that something was wrong. There was a smell of blood in the room, and no matter how he tried to hide it, it couldn't be concealed. The blood on Doctor Wang's body couldn't be fake either. But was the prince really not poisoned?

"Why, General Wang, do you still feel a little disappointed that the prince wasn't poisoned?" General Qin snorted coldly, "The assassin said the prince was poisoned to scare him!"

"Old Doctor Wang is a master doctor. Ordinary poisons are nothing to him." Guo Yang stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Doctor Wang. "Thank you, Old Doctor Wang, for saving the prince!"

"General Qin, what are you talking about? Of course I hope the prince is alright!" General Wang immediately denied it. He said with a fake smile, "I was shocked by what the killer said just now. After all, that person wouldn't just say that casually."

"Mr. Wang, your medical skills are truly extraordinary." General Wang looked at Doctor Wang standing beside him. This doctor had not appeared when he was fighting with Yong Zhao before.
