He wanted to find the imperial physician, but how could a guard like him be qualified to do so?
He had no choice but to put Chu Meng on the bed and turn around to go to Su Mengyan's bedroom.
The only one who can save Chu Meng now is the Crown Princess, he thought.
However, outside Su Mengyan's door, he was stopped by a palace maid.
"The Crown Princess is resting. No one is allowed to disturb her."
However, human life is at stake, how can the guards wait?
"No, I have something to ask the Crown Princess. Please let me in!" the guard begged the palace maid.
The palace maid was unmoved. In her eyes, what big deal could a small guard have to ask the Crown Princess for?
"How dare you! Is your business more important, or is the Crown Princess's health more important?"
Seeing this, the guard knew that the palace maid was determined not to let him in. Thinking that Chu Meng was still lying in bed waiting for the imperial physician to save her life, he knew he had to hurry.
He took a few steps back and suddenly knelt on the ground: "Your Highness, Miss Chu Meng is in trouble. Please save her."
The palace maid was frightened by the loud cry and quickly asked someone to take the guard away.
There was a lot of noise outside, and Su Mengyan was awakened. She asked, "What happened?"
The head maid told her what happened, and Su Mengyan stood up suddenly: "Why didn't you wake me up earlier?"
There was no time to blame the palace maids. While putting on her clothes, Su Mengyan ordered the palace maids to ask the imperial physician to see Chu Meng.
When the guards learned that the Crown Princess was looking for the imperial physician, they immediately returned to Chu Meng's residence.
"Replying to the Crown Princess, according to my observation, this old minister has been poisoned by a chronic poison. However, Old Chen is not very knowledgeable and does not know what kind of poison it is." The imperial physician was a little confused.
Su Mengyan couldn't believe it after hearing this: "Let this Crown Princess investigate. I want to find out who dares to poison the Crown Prince's East Palace."
When the palace maids heard the order, they immediately went down to look for items that they thought were suspicious. However, after bringing those items to the imperial physician for examination, they found that none of them were poisonous.
This is strange. He was clearly poisoned, but why can't we find the substance or method of poisoning him?
"Is there any way to save her life?" Su Mengyan asked. Since they couldn't find the poison, they had to do their best to save Chu Meng's life.
The guard also looked anxious. He didn't care about status and went to grab Su Mengyan's clothes, but was stopped by the head palace maid.
"Your Highness, I know that you and Miss Chu have a good relationship. I beg you to save her." The guard said these words without thinking.
It was at this time that Su Mengyan discovered the existence of this guard. At first, she knew that there was a guard who went to inform her, but now she noticed this person. Thinking about what Chu Mengmeng had said to her during this period, Su Mengyan thought, maybe this really is a good thing.
The imperial physician said that he could only suppress the poison temporarily, but could not cure it completely. If he wanted to save Chu Mengmeng's life, he had to find the person who poisoned her and get the antidote from him.
On the other side, Cui Mixue listened to the palace maid's reply and couldn't help but smile. "Oh, Su Mengyan, aren't you cautious? Aren't you wary of me everywhere? But now you've fallen into my trap, haven't you?"
At night, a man wearing a cloak that covered half of his face appeared in the dungeon.
The master and disciple looked at the person in front of them with some surprise: "Xue'er, you're here. Are you here to rescue me?"
Yes, the person who suddenly appeared was Cui Mixue who bribed the dungeon guard.
Cui Mixue pulled down her cloak hood, looked at Situ Zhao, and said with tears in her eyes, "Zhao, you must have suffered a lot during this period. I think you, the Seventh Prince, have to live in a place like this."
These words undoubtedly stimulated Situ Zhao. Yes, how could he, the seventh prince, suffer such hardship? All this was thanks to Situ Yao. If he got out, he would definitely thank Situ Yao well.
After the two exchanged greetings, Cui Mixue began to talk about the purpose of her visit today.
"Zhao, I asked someone to poison the prince's palace. Someone has already taken the poison. Here is the antidote. Find a chance to let Su Mengyan know and use this opportunity to get her to let you out."
Situ Zhao took the antidote, a little bit unbelieving: "Will she come? And your poison, can't others cure it? What if someone else can cure it?"
Looking at Situ Zhao like this, Cui Mixue couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart. He was more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything.
However, she still looked serious as she explained, "Don't worry, since I've drugged you, no one can cure it."
After thinking about it, Situ Zhao put the antidote inside his clothes. No matter what, he had to give it a try. What if he really succeeded?
He now longs to go out, to take back his position, and to take back everything that belongs to him. Moreover, now that Situ Yao is not in the capital, it is extremely easy for him to deal with Su Mengyan.
After figuring this out, Situ Zhao said, "I'm so glad I have you, Xue'er, because you planned all this for me."
How could he know that all Cui Mixue did was just to use him.
The very next day after Chu Mengmeng fainted and was found to be poisoned, another palace maid fainted. It turned out that she was poisoned just like Chu Mengmeng, which made Su Mengyan at a loss.
She had taken every precaution, but what went wrong?
The series of misfortunes left Su Mengyan exhausted.
But at this moment, someone suddenly told her that Situ Zhao wanted to see her in prison.
Situ Zhao's sudden request to meet made her wonder whether this matter had anything to do with Situ Zhao?
Thinking of this, Su Mengyan didn't care about anything else and decided to go meet Situ Zhao.
Outside the prison door, Su Mengyan stood there with her nose covered.
"Why does the Crown Princess also think the smell here is bad? But why don't you think about how long I have been here?" Situ Zhao was angry when he saw Su Mengyan's actions.
Before he saw Su Mengyan, he just felt that he hated them very much and wanted to kill them right now and skin them alive.
But when he really saw it, he calmed down.
What I need to do now is to let Su Mengyan let me go. Only when I am free can everything be salvaged.
"You brought this upon yourself. What does it have to do with me?" Su Mengyan asked, "What exactly do you want to see me about?"
She also has her own purpose and can't wait to know what the relationship is between this poison and Situ Zhao?
Situ Zhao thought of Cui Mixue's words, smiled coldly, and said, "Since the Crown Princess wants to know, then come in yourself. I will tell you when you come in."
Looking at the man across the door, Su Mengyan fell silent.
