Chapter 109 The most poisonous person is the one beside you
The Queen glared, her voice trembling with anger.
"Ayi Na, the prince has always doted on you. How could you harm him like this?"
"You must immediately remove the poison from the Crown Prince, or I will cut you into pieces."
Ayi Na curled up the corner of her mouth in a sneer, and slowly approached. Her eyes lingered on the painful face of the prince for a moment, then she turned to the queen with a hint of contempt in her tone.
"Cut into pieces? Queen, just two days ago you were holding my hand and saying that the Crown Prince's succession depended on me. But now you have such an attitude. It's really chilling."
"You!" The queen was so angry that she was shaking all over.
At this time, footsteps were heard at the door, and Aina spoke with a smile.
"Empress, if I were you, I wouldn't let anyone see Fengyi Palace again. After all, I don't like places with too many people. If I'm unhappy, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be upset."
Upon hearing this, the queen had no choice but to speak.
"Madam Fang, send him away."
Seeing this, Ayina smiled and continued.
"Mother, I didn't really want to get to this point. I was just cornered by Xuanyuan Jing and Xiao Fuguang. If you can help me, I promise to remove the prince's love poison and disappear forever. I won't bother you and Your Highness anymore."
The queen's face turned pale and she looked back and forth at Aina, trying to find any flaws, but she saw that she was calm and fearless.
"How do you want me to help you?"
When Aina saw the queen compromise, a cunning look flashed in her eyes.
"It's very simple."
Then he took out a bottle.
"As long as you, Queen Mother, can make Xiao Fuguang drink the contents here and trap her in Fengyi Palace, the rest will be left to me."
The queen did not agree immediately after hearing this, but looked at Aina.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
"Ayi Na, the prince has no grudge against you. Do you really not remember all the kindness he has shown you?"
Upon hearing this, Aina glanced at the prince lying on the bed. The prince was almost fainting from the pain, and he had no energy left in him.
"Ayi Na...why...why did you lie to me..."
A hint of pity flashed across Aina's eyes, but quickly disappeared. She looked away without answering the prince's words.
Instead, he looked at the queen and spoke.
"Of course I want Xiao Fuguang's life."
The queen spoke immediately after hearing this.
"That's impossible. I won't agree. Ayi Na, Xiao Fuguang is Xuanyuan's regent princess. You can kill her if you want. And if you really kill her, the regent has an army of 200,000. I'm afraid he will lead the army to destroy your southern border directly."
Aina covered her mouth and laughed when she heard that.
"Hehehe... Mother, if I didn't have any support, how could I, Ayi, dare to come to your imperial city?"
"Southern Xinjiang has been impregnable for so many years. We have layer upon layer of barriers. As long as we stay within Southern Xinjiang, no one can do anything to us. Even if your regent leads his army to Southern Xinjiang, at most he and his army will be buried in our forest."
Upon hearing this, the Queen's face turned extremely ugly. Southern Xinjiang was indeed easy to defend but difficult to attack, otherwise Southern Xinjiang would not have offended Xuanyuan many times without sending troops. Looking at Aina's smug look, the Queen didn't know what to do for a moment.
Seeing this, Aina moved closer.
"Mother, you must think carefully. My husband's life depends on your decision. If you can do me this small favor, I will ensure that my husband is well. Moreover, Southern Xinjiang and Xuanyuan can form a permanent alliance. This will benefit both you and Xuanyuan without any harm."
The queen bit her lower lip tightly, struggling internally.
The Prince Regent and the Princess Regent are not easy to mess with. It is a good thing if you can win them over, but you cannot offend them if you cannot. However, if the prince does not agree, his life may be in danger.
Just as she was hesitating, the prince's groan was heard again.
The prince rolled off the bed in pain and banged his head against the floor.
"Ah...Mother, please kill me!"
“Kill me…”
The queen supported the prince, tears of heartache falling down her face.
"Che'er..."
Aina looked down at the mother and son.
"Mother, if you don't agree, my husband will die of pain. My husband is your only son, can you bear it?"
"Without my husband, I'm afraid your position as Queen will be unstable."
The queen looked up at Aina, her eyes full of hatred but she had to compromise for the prince's life.
"Okay, I promise you. But you can't torture the prince anymore."
"Otherwise, even if I sacrifice my life, I will make you pay the price."
Hearing this, Aina smiled and slowly squatted down, reaching out to touch the prince's chest.
"good."
"Let's stop making trouble."
The prince grabbed Aina's wrist, his eyes full of unwillingness.
"Yiyi, why on earth did you do this?"
"Don't you know how I treat you?"
Aina stretched out her other hand and stroked the prince's face.
"Your Highness, Yiyi is sincere to you. It's just that things are urgent now. Don't worry, Your Highness. After I take Xiao Fuguang's life, Yiyi will stay by your side. Don't you like children? Yiyi can really give birth to a child for you..."
Thinking of how she had used a snake to pretend to be a child, the prince couldn't help feeling sick. He shook off Ayina's hand and stepped back.
"Ayi Na, your sincerity is simply terrifying."
Seeing Xuanyuan Che's face leave her hands, Aina's hands stiffened, then she withdrew her hands and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Your Highness, you will get used to it in the future..."
Suddenly, a eunuch's loud shout was heard outside.
"The Emperor has arrived......"
Ayina looked at the queen.
"Mother, please don't forget your promise."
Then he disappeared in a flash.
The Queen and Nanny Fang hurriedly helped the Prince to the bed.
Emperor Xuanyuan walked in with a look of concern on his face.
"How is the prince today? Is the imperial physician still helpless?"
The queen hurried forward and bowed.
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."
After what just happened, tears were still in the corners of the queen's eyes.
"The imperial physician is still conducting research in the side hall..."
Watching the queen wiping the tears from her eyes, Emperor Xuanyuan reached out and took her hand.
"I have ordered the Imperial Guards to search the entire city for the Southern Border Saint. As long as we find her, Che'er's poison will be cured. Don't worry too much."
Then he walked towards the prince.
The prince struggled to get up.
"Father."
Emperor Xuanyuan spoke hurriedly.
"Just lie down and stop being so polite."
"I feel better today."
Thinking of how he was in excruciating pain just now, a trace of pain flashed in Xuanyuan Che's eyes, but he was the crown prince and still needed to maintain his dignity.
"I'm sorry to have caused you worry. It's still the same as always. I've caused you trouble."
Emperor Xuanyuan looked at the weak appearance of the prince, and a more fatherly look appeared on his face.
"We are king and subject, and father and son. Che'er, you should rest well. Father is already anxiously seeking talented individuals, and the Regent Princess is also trying to find a way to remove this poison for you. How can the crown prince of Xuanyuan be threatened by a demon woman from Southern Border?"
Upon hearing this, the queen bowed hurriedly.
"I, Your Majesty, would like to thank you on behalf of the Crown Prince."
Imperial Master's Mansion.
Xiao Fuguang spent the past two days in the Astrology Building, reading many books about the witchcraft in Southern Xinjiang. He did find a lot of information, but regarding the love witchcraft, there were only descriptions and no method to solve it.
When Liu Yue came in, she saw Xiao Fuguang holding his head and looking worried.
"princess."
"How about I walk with you in the garden? You haven't been out for two days. Maybe a walk might help you think of something."
Xiao Fuguang looked up at her.
"It's Liu Yue."
"Why are you here?"
Liu Yue stepped forward and helped her up.
"There are some things I need to report to the princess, and I miss her too."
Xiao Fuguang let Liu Yue accompany him out.
"What's going on?"
Liu Yue spoke slowly.
"I have already paid a high price to hire martial arts masters to protect the Xiao family. Whether it is Yunke Ferry or Anjin, we have arranged for masters to protect them. However, these masters are also expensive. We don't have much money. Fortunately, Yunke Ferry's business is still good, and we can still cover our expenses for now."
Money, it can’t just be going out without coming in, Xiao Fuguang asked.
"How's Han Susu doing?"
Liu Yue continued.
"Han Susu has already made a lot of cold-weather items, but all her money is spent on the goods. It's not winter yet if she wants to cash them in. Furthermore, there aren't many grain merchants in the Northern Territory, so many people who come to Beipan to trade can't buy food. Some are even taking advantage of the situation to raise prices!"
Damn silver, Xiao Fuguang pondered for a moment.
"Let Hua Ziye secretly come to the Imperial Master's Mansion."
