"Your Highness! What antidote? I have no antidote!"

Zhang Qing was shaken until he was dizzy. The Crown Prince regained his senses slightly upon hearing the sound and saw that the person he was holding was Zhang Qing!

Looking around, he had actually come to Ganlu Hall! It was in a completely different direction from the Imperial Hospital!

Inside the hall, besides Zhang Qing, whom he was holding, there was his father, the Emperor, several officials including the Minister of Revenue and the Minister of Works, and... Chuanwen, who was holding the little princess!

They stared at him in utter bewilderment, then he heard Chuanwen's excited inner voice: "Holy crap! The Crown Prince has been drugged!"

The emperor almost choked on his saliva and coughed. Although they could tell that the crown prince was not in a normal state without hearing Chuanwen's words, seeing the crown prince's flushed face, feverishness, and disheveled clothes, hearing those words was still very impactful.

The Crown Prince was going crazy under their gaze, especially when he saw Zhang Qing looking at him warily and knocking his hand away. The Crown Prince almost wanted to commit suicide with his sword!

Not suitable for children!

The emperor quickly ordered someone to take Chuanwen and the little princess away. He glanced at Zhang Qing, feeling conflicted. Zhang Qing was the daughter of the prime minister and was quite good-looking. If he hadn't thought Zhang Qing was too thin during the palace examination, he would have chosen her as the third-ranked scholar. So she would have been a good match for his Yi'er.

But would they be willing? You can't force a cow to drink water if it doesn't want to; he's not a tyrant!

Zhang Qing was naturally unwilling. Although the Crown Prince was quite handsome and she wouldn't suffer any loss if she did *that*, she didn't want to reveal her identity as a woman, so she stayed far away.

Zhang Qing had hidden so far away, yet the Crown Prince thought he was being disliked, and feeling somewhat hurt, he quickly ran away. However, he wasn't running because he was injured; rather, he couldn't take it anymore and didn't want to be watched by so many people!

No one knows how the Crown Prince resolved the situation, because no one followed up. In any case, everyone felt sorry for the Crown Prince, thinking that he might as well not have such a stroke of good fortune.
