A crescent moon hangs on the exquisite corner tower, casting a hazy and dim light, making the already quiet palace even more mysterious.

Li Nian and Li Sisi were led by the eunuchs in the palace to the emperor's bedroom.

Walking on the long road made of jade, there are beautiful grasses and flowers on both sides, and at the end of the road is a tall palace.

At this moment, one could see a group of guards and maids standing in front of the door, as well as a middle-aged man dressed exactly like them.

Seeing them approaching, his eyes lit up and he immediately came forward to greet them: "You two ladies must have been exhausted from the journey. His Majesty is much more energetic now that he knows you are coming!"

Li Nian smiled politely.

As Li Sisi followed the eunuch inside, she said, "Eunuch, how is the emperor's health?"

The eunuch quickly said, "Oh, I don't deserve it. Second Madam, just call me Fuquan."

"Ah, Fuquan, how is the emperor's health?" Li Sisi readily followed suit.

Fuquan smiled flatteringly, "I had no appetite before, but after receiving letters from the two ladies, I was able to eat a meal every day."

Li Sisi frowned: "That's not much to eat!"

As they were talking, the three of them had already arrived at the bedroom, and Fuquan stepped aside and waited quietly.

Li Sisi saw the person on the bed. Her previously beautiful facial features had become much thinner due to illness, and her face was pale. More importantly, she had a bright yellow silk scarf wrapped around her neck.

There was a charcoal fire in the hall, and it was very warm.

But the emperor covered himself tightly. Seeing them approach, he forced a smile and said, "You must have just arrived in the capital today, right? Why don't you take a break before entering the palace?"

Li Sisi replied, "We're worried about you! They said you were seriously ill. Now that we're back, we have to come and see you first."

Anyang Wantong thought of the pills Li Nian had given her earlier, and her sunken eyes stared at her with even greater depth. "Nian Nian...long time no see. Did you enjoy your trip?"

"It's very warm over there, and it's like spring all year round. We brought some flowers back with us, but unfortunately they wilted on the way, so I salted them. When you're well again, I'll make them into flower cakes for you to eat."

Anyang Wantong laughed when she heard this: "It's been a while since I've eaten the food cooked by Nian Nian. I've missed it for a long time."

Li Nian stretched out his hand: "Come, let me take your pulse first. Let's see what the disease is."

Anyang Wantong stretched out her hand.

Li Nian pretended to be taking the emperor's pulse, but in fact he was letting the system check the emperor's body.

Li Sisi took the opportunity to ask, "Tongtong, didn't the imperial physician find out what the specific illness is?"

Anyang Wantong shook her head. "They only have a vague understanding and haven't come up with a good solution. Otherwise, I wouldn't have disturbed your fun and asked Xiao Hou to write to you."

At this point, the system inspection has been completed.

Li Nian said, "It's not a disease, it's a poison."

Li Sisi exclaimed, "What? Who dares to poison the emperor? Are you trying to kill yourself?"

Anyang Wantong's relaxed expression suddenly turned serious: "Is Nian Nian sure it's poison?"

Li Nian nodded affirmatively: "No doubt about it, it's poison!"

"The poisoning duration is not long, but the dose is not small. It should be something or food that you come into contact with every day." Li Nian added.

"Is there any way to detoxify?" Anyang Wantong asked.

Li Nian nodded: "There is an antidote."

Li Sisi suddenly asked, "Have you consulted Wen Luoxin for treatment? Her medical skills have always been very good, and she is also very good at using poison!"

"Sisi, don't talk nonsense." Li Nian quickly reminded her.

Anyang Wantong smiled and waved her hands: "It's okay, Sisi has always been outspoken, which is her advantage."

As she spoke, she looked at Li Nian and said in a reproachful tone, "Why is Nian Nian always so cautious? Could the relationship between the three of us really turn so sour over a few words? From now on, when we're together, you can speak freely."

She paused, then continued, "If I say something wrong or do something wrong, you must remember to remind me. The position of emperor... is truly lonely. There are people who question my identity, harbor ill intentions, and are always ready to find fault with me, or flatter me in order to gain power."

Anyang Wantong looked at her two best friends with sincerity, "If even you guys respect me even a little, then this throne... is really meaningless."

"No! Tongtong, you are the most suitable person to sit on this throne!" Li Sisi sat down on the edge of the bed. "Don't worry, if anyone dares to disobey you and cause trouble for you in the future, they are against me and Nian Nian! I will definitely kill him!"

Anyang Wantong looked at Li Nian with a smile: "What about you? Please don't be estranged from me just because of your status as the emperor, okay?"

Li Nian nodded and agreed, "Okay."

Anyang Wantong saw her serious expression and thought she looked very cute.

Anyang Wantong's eyes smiled into crescent shapes: "Then I feel relieved."

Li Sisi continued the previous topic: "Then let's talk about it! I think that even if the poison in Tongtong was not given by Wen Luoxin, it must have come from her. After all, Wen Luoxin's medical skills are indeed one of the best in the world."

Li Nian disagreed: "I don't think so. There are all kinds of tricks emerging in the capital. It's not impossible that someone has a secret recipe for poison."

She suddenly remembered something: "The letter said there was a plague in the capital, which means that Tongtong is not the only one who was poisoned, right?"

Anyang Wantong nodded: "It's indeed not just me. Sisi just said that Wen Luoxin poisoned her, but that shouldn't be possible now. After all, her only son was also poisoned. She has been at Fourth Brother's house all this time trying to find a way to treat her son."

Li Sisi was astonished: "Even Wen Luoxin couldn't diagnose that this is a poison and not a disease?"

Anyang Wantong: "That should be the case. In fact, not only is Wen Luoxin's son, but Fourth Brother's princess was also pregnant. However, because of this poison, the child was not saved."

When Li Nian heard this, he felt something was wrong.

How can it be such a coincidence?

She raised her eyes to observe Anyang Wantong's expression and found that she didn't seem to doubt Wen Luoxin at all. Is this the halo of the heroine?

She felt that the world's laws of nature seemed to be distorted.

How could Wen Luoxin, who would do anything to make her son the emperor, be the male protagonist?

Then I thought that this is a novel, and the Way of Heaven may represent the author's own thoughts.

There are a lot of pseudo-humanities nowadays, including those about kidney cutting and bloodletting, and those about pure little white rabbits and rotten cucumbers.

This heroine just does whatever it takes to achieve her goal, which is still acceptable compared to others.

No! What was I thinking?

Li Nian shook her head, thinking that she must be crazy. Her brain actually automatically defended the heroine!

Anyang Wantong found that she seemed to be in a daze again, shaking her head alone.

Holding back laughter, he asked curiously, "What did Nian Nian think of?"

Li Nian came back to his senses, thought for a moment, and replied, "I was thinking... I could go visit the prince at his residence tomorrow."

Hearing this, Anyang Wantong nodded in understanding: "Fourth brother's princess is a good person. If Nian Nian can help her recover, it would be great."

"Tongtong, don't worry. I will definitely cure her."
