Chapter 112
Shen Tingyi stumbled.
Gu Ye quickly supported her.
Shen Tingyi thought of something and said to Doctor Chang: "Poison-condensing pills..."
Doctor Chang looked at Shen Tingyi and smiled.
"Your Highness is so lucky. Madam has poison-condensing pills here. So this poison can be cured."
Shen Tingyi and Gu Ye both breathed a sigh of relief.
Doctor Chang explained: "Poison-condensing pills can absorb all the toxins in a person who has been poisoned for about 20 days. So whether it is you, Madam, or the Prince, the poisoning time is less than 20 days, so it can be absorbed."
The smile on Doctor Chang's face was also very sincere.
"So the Prince is so lucky."
Gu Ye and Shen Tingyi knew that the poison-condensing pills could absorb the toxins in Gu Jingchen's body, and they felt relieved.
But Gu Jingchen was poisoned for unknown reasons, and there was something fishy about it...
She and Gu Ye looked at each other. Shen Tingyi was sensitive, and she had recently discovered that the situation in the imperial city was unstable.
Whether she was poisoned before or Gu Jingchen was poisoned now.
There was only one possibility.
The Duke's Mansion was being targeted.
Shen Tingyi hurriedly said to Doctor Chang: "Doctor Chang, I hope you won't leak the matter of the poison pill. In addition, you can spread the news that the prince was poisoned..."
Doctor Chang understood what Shen Tingyi meant.
He nodded repeatedly.
Gu Ye sent Doctor Chang away.
Before long, the news that Gu Jingchen was poisoned, lying in bed unable to take care of himself, and would die soon spread throughout the imperial city.
In Gu Jingchen's room, Shen Tingyi had already brought the poison pill and placed it on his bedside.
Shen Tingyi looked at Gu Jingchen, who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, looking painful, pale and weak, and her heart was broken.
Although Gu Jingchen was not her biological child,
she raised him by herself.
She liked children. She
treated Gu Jingchen as her own child over the years.
It was because she liked children that she adopted Xia He into the Duke's Mansion.
But she didn't expect that Xia He was a difficult child to raise.
But Gu Jingchen was really a good child.
"Jingchen, this time we are in great trouble thanks to Yue'er's poison-free pills, otherwise we, mother and son... When you wake up, you must thank Yue'er."
Gu Jingchen closed his eyes and could not open them.
He was conscious.
He sneered in his heart.
He was in this state now because of Ye Jingyue!
He must take revenge when he wakes up!
Ye Jingyue's work must be doubled and doubled again!
The housekeeper rushed in: "Madam, the Prime Minister's wife is here, and she said she wants to see you."
"The Prime Minister's wife is here at this time"
Shen Tingyi was a woman, she just thought about it for a while and understood the reason.
She stood up with a cold face.
She glanced at Gu Jingchen lying on the bed.
"Jinchen, we are a family of generals. What we hate most is people who are ungrateful and take advantage of others' misfortunes. If the Prime Minister's Mansion is here to cancel the engagement, I will approve the request. You will blame me when you wake up, but I will bear it."
Gu Jinchen is really eager to cancel the marriage! After
all the trouble, isn't it just to cancel the engagement?
I hope the marriage can be canceled soon, and my cousin can have a conscience and come to detoxify him in the middle of the night.
Don't let him lie there for three days!!!
I want to cry but I can't!
My cousin is too cruel!
Shen Tingyi came to the front hall, and the room was already full of things, all of which were the betrothal gifts when she came to ask for marriage on behalf of Gu Jinchen.
The Prime Minister's wife is also a noble lady. Usually, both parties are polite when they meet. This time, the Prime Minister's wife did not pretend.
"Madam Gu, we have heard about the prince's affairs. You see, the prince's condition is not good now, and there is no need to continue the marriage with Shishi. What do you think?"
Of course, the Prime Minister's Mansion will not be so presumptuous to come forward to cancel the engagement.
Instead, they went directly to ask the imperial physician Chang for the news.
Gu Jingchen was poisoned and will not survive for seven days.
In this case, this marriage must be canceled as soon as possible.
If Gu Jingchen died, Lin Shishi would inevitably be labeled as a "husband-killer".
By then, Lin Shishi would be worthless.
Shen Tingyi sneered.
"There is really no need to continue."
Both parties were very direct, so they exchanged the marriage certificate and the marriage was called off.
Within a day, the imperial city was in an uproar.
Gu Jingchen was poisoned and was about to die.
The Prime Minister's Mansion was even more non-stop to cancel the marriage.
Some people were ashamed of the Prime Minister's Mansion's trend of changing their minds according to the wind, but more people expressed understanding. After all, Gu Jingchen was about to die, so what could the marriage be cancelled? The
imperial city was in turmoil, and the rumors were directly spread to the academy.
Ye Jingyue and her friends were still in the trial period of school. In the first month, they had one day of study and one day of rest.
People in the academy also heard about Gu Jingchen.
Lin Shishi sat in her seat, looking at Ye Jingyue from time to time, her face pale.
This time the incident was so serious, she was not sure why Gu Jingchen was poisoned so seriously!
And she knew her mother, if she didn't have accurate information, her mother would not come to cancel the engagement so
rashly. Ye Jingyue also saw her nervousness and fear, walked to her side, took her hand, and whispered in her ear.
"Don't worry, everything is under control."
Lin Shishi looked at Ye Jingyue in disbelief.
So, Ye Jingyue was responsible for Gu Jingchen's misfortune.
She... was so cruel to Gu Jingchen.
He was your cousin!
[My cousin's reputation is not a problem, but Sister Lin's reputation cannot be damaged. So if I want you to cancel the engagement, I must start with my cousin!]
Ye Yunyao was also worried when she heard the news about Gu Jingchen.
But she held back.
Now she heard Ye Jingyue's inner voice.
She was a little helpless.
Her sister was really brave. She was
really brave! She actually
tortured her cousin!
Ye Yunyao was really emotional now. Ye Jingyue shouted in her heart that she wanted to marry Gu Jingchen again and again, but it was really just shouting.
Otherwise, if she really loved Gu Jingchen as crazy and insane as she did in her heart, how could she bear to be so cruel to him
That night, Ye Jingyue once again turned into a villain and went to Gu Jingchen's house.
[Cousin, I'm here!]
Gu Jingchen burst into tears. He had never been so eager for someone before. He was
just looking forward to it.
Ye Jingyue glanced at the person on the bed. In just one day, he had become pale and thin. The usual elegant man was gone, replaced by a thin man.
Ye Jingyue felt a little guilty.
[Uh... I think I was a bit too harsh!]
Gu Jingchen: Yes! Cousin! So please help him quickly!
He is being bitten by insects and is going crazy.
[Cousin, in order to make the breakup go more smoothly, I have to do more ruthless things. Please bear with me!]
Gu Jingchen: ...
It's broken.
It's completely broken.
