Min watched in horror as the poisonous insect burrowed into her body. She suddenly froze and fainted.
Immediately afterwards, Xifeng and Chunyu Yilan cooperated and did the same to Cui'er.
Yue Haoyun, Xifeng, and Chunyu Yilan had all seen Gu insects before, and were accustomed to seeing unusual things. Therefore, after inoculating the Min family members with Gu, they remained calm.
Only Xiao Zilan, who had never seen a poisonous insect before, was so scared that his face turned pale.
Seeing this, Yue Haoyun quickly took her hand and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, these are the poisonous insects from Dayue. I had no choice but to plant the poison on them."
Xiao Zilan regained some color and quickly pulled his hand back.
At this time, Min woke up slowly.
Xifeng helped her up and took out her gag.
Looking at Yue Haoyun in front of her, Min was so scared that she burst into tears.
"Your Majesty, please spare my life! I am innocent! Please don't kill me!"
Yue Haoyun sneered twice and said, "Princess, what you said is very strange. I haven't even asked a single question, so why are you saying you're being wronged?"
"What is your injustice?"
Only then did Min realize that she had caused herself to explode in panic, and she immediately hung her head in despair.
"Min family!" Yue Haoyun continued.
"I may not kill you, but you must serve me."
Min raised her head and looked at Yue Haoyun blankly, as if she didn't understand what Yue Haoyun meant.
"I have just had a loyalty poison planted in you and Cui'er. If you disobey my orders, you will be bitten by the poison and die in agony."
When Min heard this, she cried and said, "I am willing to work for the prince!"
Yue Haoyun curled the corners of his lips in satisfaction, "Okay." Then he gave Xifeng a wink.
Xifeng quickly untied Min and Cui'er.
The master and the servant knelt obediently on the ground, not even daring to raise their heads.
Yue Haoyun said coldly, "Princess, next, you will announce to the entire palace that the prince has passed away due to a sudden illness. Also, don't forget to send a message to your old master."
"After that, you will fulfill your duty as a princess and hold a funeral for this king."
Min raised her head in astonishment, her lips moved a few times, but she still didn't dare to ask the question in her heart.
She just nodded repeatedly and said, "I understand."
Yue Haoyun continued to instruct, "Master Qiao, Miss Lan, from now on, you are the princess's personal maids. From morning to night, whether eating or sleeping, you must stay by her side."
Xiao Zilan and Chunyu Yilan responded in unison: "Yes, sir!"
Yue Haoyun took two steps forward, pinched Min's chin, and stared at Min's face with a burning gaze.
He said in a cold voice: "Min Ru, I will tell you the truth. If you dare to have any thoughts, I will make you live a life worse than death."
As soon as Yue Haoyun finished speaking, Chunyu Yilan closed her eyes and gathered her energy, muttering something to herself.
Min's expression changed instantly. She clutched her chest and wailed in pain, "No... Stop now... Your Majesty, spare me..."
Chunyu Yilan opened her eyes, looked at Min with contempt, and said, "Princess, I have been practicing the art of controlling Gu since I was young. If you do anything that makes me feel embarrassed, I will have no choice but to control the Gu."
Min kowtowed hurriedly: "I won't do that. I will follow the prince's orders!"
Yue Haoyun gave some specific instructions before letting Min and his group leave. After that, he lay down on the bed leisurely.
Before long, the news of the prince's death spread throughout the palace.
The Second Prince and Han Qingbo used up all their life's acting skills and hurried to Bishuiyuan.
At this time, Xifeng had already brought people to seal off the Bishui Courtyard, and personally brought a few guards to stand guard at the gate of the courtyard.
The second prince didn't even have time to put on his outer robe, and his hair was disheveled.
He pushed through the crowd, grabbed Xifeng by the collar, and asked in a disoriented manner, "What happened to your prince? I want you to tell me in person, what happened to the prince?"
Xifeng's face darkened, and he seemed to be holding back tears as he said, "Our prince died suddenly!"
Han Qingbo looked at Xifeng in disbelief. "How is this possible? The prince was chatting with me at the palace banquet tonight. It's been less than two hours. How could he be dead?"
At this time, outside the Bishui Courtyard, Yue Haoyun's nine concubines, along with a large group of maids and nannies, were gathered outside the courtyard.
When they heard that the eldest prince had died suddenly, they rushed here without stopping, arriving earlier than the second prince and his group.
Before the Second Prince questioned Xifeng, they had already taken turns questioning Xifeng, and were clamoring to go in and see the prince.
Xifeng lowered his eyes and said with difficulty, "The prince just returned to Bishui Courtyard a while ago. He said he had a headache and then went to bed."
"After a while, he complained of a splitting headache. Before we could call the imperial physician, the prince had already passed away..."
Having said that, Xifeng could no longer speak, and two lines of tears rolled down his cheeks.
"Let us go in and see the prince's appearance. We sisters will never believe that he is dead unless we see him!" said Aunt Zhang.
Immediately afterwards, the other concubines also said, "Yes, let us go in and take a look!"
"No matter what, we sisters are also the prince's women! When the prince passes away, at least let us see him!"
At this time, Xia Miaoyuan hugged Li Ma's neck and observed the nine concubines with great interest.
Just now, the Second Prince and his entourage came to Bishuiyuan, and she wanted to come too. Because she walked slowly, Nanny Li carried her and ran over.
[Nine! Each one is stunningly beautiful! Tsk tsk tsk!]
[I remember it was written in the book that Yue Haoyun apparently took a pair of concubines and also liked to collect beautiful women.]
[But in fact, he just pretended to be like this to hide his ambition.]
[However, pity these beautiful sisters. ]
[This time he faked his own death. I wonder what will become of these beautiful ladies.]
When Xia Miaoyuan was daydreaming, Min from the palace came over with three maids.
Everyone hurriedly made way for her.
