"The original owner was later imprisoned in the cold palace and then killed by Ye Jinghe. I was in the Northern Frontier for those years and didn't see him. I don't know if his appearance has changed, but you look completely different from him. Otherwise, I would never have fallen in love with you," Xie Chang'an said with certainty.
Although he was attracted to Ye Jingchen's soul, the soul and the physical body are inseparable. If Ye Jingchen were very similar to the original owner of this body, he would be too disgusted to like him.
Although Xie Chang'an spoke with certainty, Ye Jingchen remained skeptical.
There's a saying, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." He and the original owner may not be exactly the same, but since they share the same appearance, they should at least look seven or eight parts alike.
It's just that Xie Chang'an liked him, so she subconsciously overlooked this fact.
Once Ye Jinghe in the room has recovered somewhat, he can ask him about this.
The two waited for a while before Ye Jing and the person in question returned.
Seeing Ye Jinghe return unharmed, Ye Jingchen felt much relieved.
He was very worried that Ye Jinghe's arrival in the room would have some negative impact on Ye Jinghe, whom he had raised.
"Jinghe, are you alright? Is there anything bothering you, like a headache or something?"
Although there was no apparent problem on the surface, Ye Jingchen still wanted to confirm with Ye Jinghe.
"Brother, I'm fine. I'm not the one who's injured." Ye Jinghe smiled at Ye Jingchen.
"It's good that you're alright. After Physician Zhang has treated the person in the room, I'll have him take your pulse. That way, I can feel at ease," Ye Jingchen said.
"I'll listen to whatever you say, brother." Ye Jinghe said, his curiosity growing. Just how much did the person in the room look like him that made his brother so nervous?
As he was thinking, Chunming came running from a distance, like a little pig, and plunged into Ye Jinghe's arms, hugging his legs tightly.
"Brother!" His voice was trembling with tears.
Fortunately, the one who was seriously injured was not my brother!
Ye Jinghe patted Chunming's head, feeling even more curious.
Physician Zhang came out of the room carrying his medicine chest.
He's getting quite old now, his hair is all white, and if he weren't still in relatively good health, he really wouldn't be able to withstand this kind of ordeal.
As he stepped out of the room, Ye Jingchen naturally reached out to help him.
"Imperial Physician Zhang, how is that person's injury? Is it life-threatening?" Ye Jingchen asked.
"His life has been saved. With proper care, his health may recover. However, he seems to have been poisoned by the same neurotoxin that the Fifth Prince suffered from back then, and it's become extremely severe. Even if he wakes up, he'll probably go insane," the old imperial physician said gravely.
Ye Jingchen's expression immediately turned sour. If he hadn't brought Ye Jinghe back to the East Palace from Changchun Palace, Ye Jinghe might have ended up like the Ye Jinghe in the room.
Ye Jinghe listened to the old doctor's words and seemed to be deep in thought.
She looks a lot like him and has been poisoned by the same drug?
As far as he knew, the poison was developed by a royal physician named Tao Zhi, who had died many years ago. Could it be that Tao Zhi poisoned others while he was poisoning him?
But why would he choose someone who looks so much like him to poison him?
Is it a coincidence, or—
A strange thought popped into Ye Jinghe's mind.
"He shouldn't be too crazy yet," Xie Chang'an said, trying to comfort Ye Jingchen when he saw his pale face.
Ye Jinghe is tough; he can't possibly go mad so easily.
"Physician Zhang, please take Jinghe's pulse as well," Ye Jingchen said to the old physician, snapping out of his reverie.
Ye Jinghe extended his hand to the old doctor.
The old imperial physician took Ye Jinghe's pulse, and after a moment, withdrew his hand and said to Ye Jingchen, "Your Highness, rest assured, the Fifth Prince is in good health, with abundant qi and blood, even better than you. That toxin will no longer affect him."
"What's wrong with my brother's health?" Ye Jinghe asked in alarm.
Your Highness—
"I'm fine! I'm perfectly healthy!" Ye Jingchen quickly interrupted Physician Zhang before he could finish speaking, then glared fiercely at Xie Chang'an.
It's all Xie Chang'an's fault for not knowing how to control himself!
"Doctor, is my brother really alright?" Ye Jinghe asked persistently.
Since it concerns his brother's health, he cannot easily let this matter go.
The old imperial physician glanced at Ye Jingchen before smiling and saying, "His Highness the Crown Prince is fine, he just doesn't have as much energy and blood as the Fifth Prince."
Ye Jingchen glared at Xie Chang'an again.
"If you can stick to exercising with me every day, you won't have qi and blood deficiency." Xie Chang'an calmly pointed out the crux of the problem.
"I'm just a little weak, I'll recover with some medicinal food," Ye Jingchen said with a laugh.
Early morning exercise is out of the question. Although he's not the one who puts in the effort in bed, it's all because someone is addicted and easily gets carried away. Once he gets into it, he suffers, his body feels like it's falling apart, so how could he possibly have the energy to get up early and exercise?
"You can't even take care of your brother's health, what use are you?!" Ye Jinghe said to Xie Chang'an with a look of disgust.
Ye Jingchen silently covered his face.
This child is far too naive!
Didn't he give Ye Jinghe the "Mirror of Love and Lust" that the emperor had given him after Ye Jinghe became enlightened? Didn't he look at it?
Ye Jingchen instructed someone to take the old imperial physician to the mansion to rest. Judging from Ye Jinghe's injuries, the old imperial physician estimated that he would have to stay at the Prince Qian's mansion for a few days.
