"Fine, I'll kneel!" He Xue said, kneeling before Noble Lady Wuya. "Please give me the antidote!"

"Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha!" Consort Wuya looked at He Xue kneeling in front of her and laughed loudly. "Tongjia Qingyao, did you see that? You really should come and see!"

Consort Wuya felt that it was not He Xue kneeling in front of her, but Consort Tongjia kneeling in front of her, and she felt more comfortable than ever before.

"Uya!" The Crown Prince now hated Consort Uya with a vengeance, wishing he could devour her flesh, eat her bones, and drink her blood.

"Now can you hand over the antidote?" He Xue asked.

"Haha! You're too naive! Do you really think I'd hand over the antidote to you? And then you go and expose me to the Emperor? Would I even have a chance to live?" Consort Wuya said smugly.

"It's not that I'm naive, but I'll try anything to save my aunt, no matter how small!" He Xue said as she stood up.

"I never imagined that you and Tong Jia Qingyao had such a deep bond! Today I'll give you a chance." With that, Consort Wuya took a hairpin off her head.

There was a ruby ​​on the hairpin. Lady Wuya pressed it, opened the hairpin, and poured out two pills.

Consort Wuya placed the pills in front of He Xue, saying, "This is the same medicine as Tong Jia Qingyao's. Do you dare to take it?"

The crown prince couldn't care less about anything else at this point and kicked the door open.

Just as Kangxi was about to speak, the Crown Prince kicked him back.

"Father, we can't wait any longer!" The Crown Prince knelt before Emperor Kangxi. If it weren't for his father's presence, he would have already gone in and brought He Xue out.

Wuya was startled by the sudden sound, and He Xue immediately took the medicine from Wuya's hand.

"Liang Jiugong, send someone to bring Wuya Shi out to me!" Kangxi ordered Liang Jiugong.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Liang Jiugong replied.

He Xue grabbed the medicine and immediately ran out. "Uncle Emperor, I've obtained the poison that Consort Wuya gave my aunt. Let the imperial physician examine its ingredients so we can save her!"

"Let Physician Liu take a look first!" Kangxi suppressed his excitement.

"Father, I will accompany He Xue to deliver the medicine to Physician Liu!" the Crown Prince said.

"Alright, go!" Kangxi said.

The prince held He Xue's other hand tightly in his own, wondering if He Xue would have swallowed the poison if he had waited any longer.

"Brother Crown Prince, my hand hurts!" He Xue whispered. The Crown Prince hadn't given her a second glance since she came out, and now he was acting like someone owed him money. Had someone offended him again?

Although the Crown Prince still had the same expression as before, he loosened his grip on He Xue's hand considerably.

"Brother Crown Prince, what's wrong?" He Xue asked, looking at the Crown Prince's face.

The Crown Prince stopped and immediately pulled He Xue into his arms. "You're not allowed to do such dangerous things again!" The Crown Prince's hands were still trembling as he held He Xue; he had never been so afraid before.

At the same time, he understood that he couldn't live without Xue. He was probably already under the control of the little girl he had raised, and he was willing to be controlled by her.

"Brother Crown Prince!"

The Crown Prince was holding He Xue in his arms, and in this tender moment, he thought He Xue was about to say something affectionate, but instead she said something that completely ruined the mood.

"Your Highness, you're holding me too tight! I can't breathe!"

The Crown Prince was filled with helplessness. He released He Xue, ruffled her hair, and said, "Little girl, grow up quickly!"

"Brother Crown Prince, I've grown up now!" He Xue said with dissatisfaction.

"Good! You've grown up!" The Crown Prince echoed Xue's words.

He Xue knew that the Crown Prince was just giving her the runaround, but she didn't take it to heart. "Brother Crown Prince, let's hurry up and send the medicine to Physician Liu!"

"Give me the medicine!" The Crown Prince didn't want He Xue to come into contact with the medicine.

"No need, Your Highness, you don't need to get involved!" He Xue immediately moved far away from the Crown Prince!

This is poison after all; the Crown Prince should avoid it.

The prince was startled by He Xue's actions. "Alright, alright, don't walk so fast! Your foot injury hasn't healed yet!"

He Xue then slowed down her pace.

The Crown Prince caught up with He Xue, saying, "This day must have terrified you!"

He Xue playfully stuck out her tongue at the Crown Prince.
