"No!" Wen Ruoxin glared at Xiaohong angrily, then looked at Xiao Yunyu with resentment: "If you don't believe it, send someone to the Wen Mansion to ask and you will know."
"No need." Xiao Yunyu's deep eyes flashed with a hint of coldness and danger. He turned his head to look at Madam Xiao and said quietly, "Mother, please send someone to the Wen Mansion to tell them that we will temporarily keep the second young lady at home to treat my wife's illness."
"Ah?" Madam Xiao was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether to listen to him or not. She hesitated and said, "Should we wait until the Marquis comes back to discuss this matter?"
Xiao Yunyu's eyes were dark as he said in a cold voice, "I will explain this matter to my father in person when he returns. If my mother is unwilling to come forward, then I will go to the Wen Mansion and pass on the message myself."
Mrs. Xiao hurriedly said, "That's not appropriate. I'll just send someone over." After that, she quickly turned around and left.
Xiao Yunyu retracted his gaze and cast a cold look on Wen Luoxin: "Since the Second Miss and my wife have been poisoned by the same poison, you can stay at home and concentrate on developing an antidote."
He then instructed, "Xiaobai, keep an eye on Miss Wen Er. If she needs any medicinal herbs, go get them yourself."
Wen Luoxin understood the meaning behind his words and shouted in shock and anger, "Xiao Yunyu! You want to imprison me?!"
Xiao Yunyu's defiant face was filled with coldness. "Since Second Miss Wen knows what's going on, just work hard to develop an antidote. When the poison is resolved, I'll naturally let you go back."
Wen Luoxin snorted coldly: "Xiao Yunyu, who do you think you are?"
Wen Luoxin suppressed her inner panic and said calmly, "Here at the feet of the emperor, do you, a mere prince, think you can disregard the law?"
Xiao Yunyu didn't want to waste time talking to her. His cold voice was filled with a dangerous warning: "You decide whether to stay and detoxify yourself or have your reputation ruined and be accused of poisoning the Crown Prince's Consort. Weigh it yourself."
"Xiao Yunyu, it was your wife who invited me to Tianxiang Tower today. Besides, your wife and I were poisoned at the same time. What evidence do you have to prove that I was the one who poisoned you?" Wen Luoxin asked unwillingly.
Xiao Yunyu said bluntly, "My wife wouldn't lie to me. As for evidence... I'll have it if I want it." He narrowed his eyes, a cold smile on his lips, "If you don't mind, I'll immediately have someone seal off Tianxiang Tower and make a big fuss about this. Then, any good reputation you've built up after returning to the capital will be completely ruined."
Li Nian looked up in surprise at the man who defended her without hesitation.
She never expected that Xiao Yunyu would stand up for her, and even thought about what would happen if Xiao Yunyu didn't believe her.
The only thing she never thought was that Xiao Yunyu would believe it just because she said so?
Based on his previous behavior, this shouldn't happen!
"Husband~"
Li Nian just deliberately held Xiao Yunyu's hand with blood, intending to arouse his trust.
However, Xiao Yunyu didn't notice the stickiness on her palm at all. When he heard her soft call and raised his hand to touch and comfort her, he discovered the bright red blood.
Xiao Yunyu's pupils shrank, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and he comforted her in a dry and hoarse voice: "Be good, it's okay, don't be afraid, the poison in you can definitely be cured."
He called out, "Chun Cui, go get some water."
Wen Luoxin looked at the affectionate expressions of the two people, her heart filled with anger and unwillingness. She knew that Xiao Yunyu could do it since he said it, but his indulgent trust in Yun Qiuwu made Wen Luoxin's heart feel as if it was burned by fire.
Xiao Yunyu from the previous life kept appearing in her mind. When he was young, when he was young, when he was middle-aged, had he ever trusted her so straightforwardly?
With her fingers clenched tightly at her sides and taking a deep breath, Wen Luoxin once again reminded herself of her goal after rebirth.
Fortunately, she had already developed the antidote, it’s just the detoxification process!
Haha, Yun Qiuwu dared to frame her, so she must pay the price!
The poison can be cured, child, don't even think about keeping her!
Wen Luoxin said loudly: "Okay, I promise you, but before detoxifying, I have to take the eldest lady's pulse and confirm the diagnosis." Humph, it was a good opportunity to ask Xiao Yunyu for some medicinal herbs that she couldn't find normally.
Xiao Yunyu may not have any other special abilities, but he has a wide network of contacts in the martial arts world.
"Okay." Xiao Yunyu followed Wen Luoxin closely, watching her taking Li Nian's pulse.
Wen Luoxin took her pulse carefully and did not dare to be careless at all.
Doctor Wu said that Yun Qiuwu's pulse was the same as hers, and she was poisoned by the same poison, but Qianjindu would not make people vomit blood, and Yun Qiuwu's poisoning condition was not similar at all!
Wen Luoxin's brows were furrowed tighter and tighter.
No, where's the pregnancy pulse? Yun Qiuwu is clearly pregnant!
Could it be that her vomiting blood was caused by an unexpected miscarriage? If so, why did Yun Qiuwu suddenly rush to find her?
It couldn't be just to frame her!
She must have other purposes!
"How is it going?"
Xiao Yunyu's cold voice brought Wen Luoxin back to her senses. She frowned and said, "As for the pulse, it is indeed the same as mine, but I'm not sure."
Xiao Yunyu was silent for a moment, then said, "Xiaobai, take Miss Wen back to the west room."
"Yes," Xiaobai responded.
Chun Cui brought a basin of hot water into the room, and Xiao Yunyu asked her to put it beside the bed.
He took the towel, soaked it, wrung it dry, and then took Li Nian's hand and wiped it carefully.
Li Nian was a little flattered. It was too scary to have Xiao Yunyu serve her.
"Husband, I can wash my hands myself."
"No problem," the man replied in a hoarse voice.
He lowered his head and carefully wiped her hands. Li Nian couldn't see his expression, but she could clearly feel his low breath at this time.
Xiao Yunyu pursed his lips tightly, his red eyes gradually became hot, and his heart was full of self-blame and heartache.
He should have been wary of Wen Luoxin after the last incident at the horse farm. He thought that Wen Luoxin had no grudge against his wife, and he had little contact with her, and the last warning was clear enough.
