——
The Princess's Residence.
Qin Yuedie's condition was much better than Empress Song's; she was only poisoned by a strange poison that even the imperial physicians in the palace could not develop an antidote for.
The poison caused her to develop sores all over her body, which were itchy and painful. Not only that, but it also made it extremely difficult for her to eat. The imperial physician said that sores had also appeared on her throat.
Qin Yuedie propped herself up on the edge of the bed, her sinister gaze filled with resentment.
"How is Mother...?" Her voice was strange and eerie.
What she really wanted to ask was whether the palace had developed an antidote.
Her asking this question demonstrates her filial piety.
The palace servant, prostrate on the ground, replied tremblingly, "Your Highness, there is still no news from the palace."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yuedie clenched her fingers tightly, feeling no pain even as her fingertips dug into her flesh.
Compared to the hatred in my heart, what is this?
With her father's birthday banquet just around the corner, she had originally planned to take this opportunity to teach Nan Qianyue a lesson, but now she might not even be able to attend the banquet.
She raised her eyes, which were filled with malice. "Tomorrow, I will invite the Southern Migration Moon to the Princess's residence. I will make sure to bring her here."
She knew perfectly well where the poison in her body came from; it was all because of the Southern Migration Month.
The next day, at the Prime Minister's residence.
"Where did you say my mother took me? What kind of mountain villa?" Nan Qianyue was a little doubtful of her ears.
The woman in green smiled and said, "Muyang Manor is a property of the Prime Minister's residence, a place for scholars and literati to compose poems, appreciate flowers and scenery. The Madam checks the accounts twice a year."
Nanqianyue almost couldn't contain her surprise; what a coincidence!
No, it's definitely not a coincidence.
Xiao Chen must have known in advance that the Prime Minister's wife was going to check the accounts, which is why he arranged the meeting place at Muyang Manor.
But the question is, how can she escape the Prime Minister's wife's sight and meet him?
Moreover, he arranged to meet at Shenshi (3-5 PM), by which time the Prime Minister's wife should have already finished checking the accounts.
Sigh, it's like I'm solving a case every day.
