Chapter 8: She must not be allowed to take the credit
She must stop Chu Jiuning and take the credit for herself.
Everyone knows that His Highness is not in good health, so whenever he goes out, there will always be one or two imperial physicians accompanying him. Logically speaking, His Highness's illness is not very serious. If he can stay in the Duke's Mansion temporarily and take the opportunity to let his daughter Song Ruier go to take care of him, maybe there will be a way out for Ruier in the future.
The Duke's wife looked around.
She has been angry ever since she found out her brother was going to marry a merchant's daughter, and now no one knows where she has gone to hide.
"Besides, what do you know about etiquette? Hurry up and leave. Let the people from the Duke's Mansion go to welcome His Highness."
Said.
The Duke's wife looked at the Duke of Song.
Duke Song nodded, and then led everyone out of the wedding hall in a hurry.
The servants of the Duke's Mansion took up sharp weapons and surrounded Chu Jiuning with ferocious looks, trying to trap her in the wedding hall and prevent her from going anywhere.
"Amber, Mingtang, take care of them. Don't leave any of them alive."
"Yes, miss."
Amber and Mingtang rubbed their hands together, looking happy about hunting. They rushed forward without hesitation even though the weapons in the opponents' hands were flashing coldly.
A scream was heard and a bloody path was opened.
Looking at the things that had fallen to the ground and were in pain, Chu Jiuning calmly stepped over them and walked out the door quickly.
We must not let the Duke of Song’s Mansion snatch away His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he is her life-saving talisman!
When they ran to the gate of the Song Mansion, the people were kneeling on the ground, with heads piled up like a sea. The silence was so tense that it made people nervous. The Duke of Song, his wife, and the guests maintained their greeting postures, and none of them had their previous arrogance.
His Highness's carriage was parked majestically at the door. When the wind blew over, it lifted the curtain, and a beautiful young man with icy eyes could be vaguely seen inside.
A young man in a green robe walked out of the carriage.
Duke Song hurried forward.
"Mr. Wuyou, this old minister has come to welcome His Highness into the mansion. Everything in the mansion is under His Highness's control."
Wuyou was the disciple of the Medical Saint and was considered a man of the world. He was not affiliated with the Imperial Hospital. After he understood the prince's illness, he said that he would not leave until the prince recovered.
In the carriage.
The other person who was taking the prince's pulse was Doctor Zhao from the Imperial Hospital, who was His Highness's personal doctor.
Wuyou frowned slightly. They had seen the whole thing just now, so they had a bad impression of the Duke's family. But His Highness really needed to rest now, so it would be best not to force himself to return to the palace.
The Duke of Song and his wife were filled with joy.
And Chu Jiuning.
Standing on the steps, he quietly looked at the young man who was looming in the carriage. His face didn't look good, his brows were furrowed, as if he was trying hard to hold back.
And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
He also opened his eyes at this moment, just in time to meet Chu Jiuning's beautiful eyes.
"Then send the carriage into the mansion and we will make arrangements immediately."
The Duke stepped forward to greet him, and Wuyou also turned around and nodded to His Highness's personal guard, Shen Liuguang, and everyone mobilized the carriages to prepare to enter the palace.
Look up.
Seeing that Chu Jiuning was still blocking them, the Duke's wife said anxiously.
"What are you stopping here for? If your Highness is defeated because of you, can you afford it? Get out of here right now."
Chu Jiuning refused to give way, bowed towards the carriage, and spoke softly.
"I can cure it."
These words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing a thousand waves. Everyone glared at Chu Jiuning angrily.
Even if you want to take credit, you can't do this.
His Highness is not a fool. How could he not understand his condition? How could the doctor not understand?
"Don't make trouble here. If His Highness really has something, your Chu family will die."
After the Duke's wife finished speaking, the servants stepped forward and grabbed Chu Jiuning to drag her away. Chu Jiuning did not struggle, but shouted loudly into the wind.
"I can really cure it. If it doesn't work, or if it makes your condition worse, Your Highness can execute me!"
These words frightened everyone present and made them break out in a sweat.
This kind of words.
She dared to say that. She really doesn't know her place. She won't even know how she'll die.
However.
A slender and handsome hand opened the curtain, and the prince's pale but sharp appearance appeared. He leaned slightly and looked at Chu Jiuning.
"really?"
Chu Jiuning nodded.
"Your Highness, please go to my new house. I will find a solution."
"good."
The prince agreed, and the guards immediately stepped forward to clear the way. The carriage followed Chu Jiuning slowly into the Song Mansion.
Everyone in the Duke's Mansion stayed where they were.
The Duke's wife gritted her teeth and her face turned pale with anger.
Song Jinhuai ran out happily, holding An Yinyin, whose hair was a little messy, and asked the Duke's wife.
"Mother, has His Highness arrived yet? Where is he? Let's pay our respects to His Highness."
The Duchess's wife looked at them in dishevel in broad daylight and her face darkened with anger. An Yinyin was suddenly shocked. The Duchess's wife rarely got angry with her. What happened?
The servant hurried forward and told them what had just happened.
An Yinyin chased in and saw from afar that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and his entourage were actually following Chu Jiuning towards the bridal chamber. She was extremely jealous for a moment, and when she heard Song Jinhuai's footsteps, she burst into tears. Song Jinhuai held her in his arms, and when he stared at Chu Jiuning's back, he became more and more hateful.
Duke Song was so angry that his fists cracked when he saw that his son was still sentimental at such an old age.
Don't care about that.
Everyone ran towards the bridal chamber together. This was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and they could not miss any opportunity.
Can.
Just as he ran to the gate of the courtyard, the guard holding a knife had a cold face and raised the sword in his hand.
Duke Song and his entourage had no choice but to stop and look at the closed door of the wing room. They were extremely anxious and angry!
In the new house.
Chu Jiuning looked at the room full of joy, everything arranged according to An Yinyin's preferences, and a surge of resentment rose in her heart.
"Miss, the couch has been set up."
Nanny Hong stepped forward and spoke softly. Chu Jiuning nodded, and then Shen Liuguang helped His Highness walk towards the soft couch.
When I came in earlier.
The room was in a mess, and one could tell what Song Jinhuai and An Yinyin were doing. Of course, His Highness couldn't lie down, so they could only make the couch softer and more comfortable.
Wuyou and Doctor Zhao were serving His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Although Shen Liuguang was holding the hilt of the sword and looking at His Royal Highness, his peripheral vision was wary of Chu Jiuning.
Chu Jiuning could sense his wariness and walked five steps away from the couch to salute.
"Your Highness, this illness, I'm afraid you brought it from your mother's womb?"
The young man on the couch, who had originally closed his eyes, suddenly opened his eyes. When his cold gaze fell on her, Chu Jiuning felt a chill.
Wuyou also showed surprise in her eyes and turned to look at Chu Jiuning. Chu Jiuning poured a cup of warm water. When she was about to approach His Highness, she looked at Shen Liuguang. Shen Liuguang stepped aside, and she approached His Highness.
"Your Highness is truly persevering."
His face was almost transparent at this moment, frighteningly pale, with sweat constantly oozing out of his forehead, and his tightly pursed red lips gradually turning purple. Although he didn't say a word, Chu Jiuning knew that this poison could make him feel pain deep in his bones.
Such a tenacious young man is really rare!
She had also heard from her grandfather that the poison seemed to attack the prince once a month, and he would be extremely weak for at least seven to ten days after the attack. The court officials were extremely anxious and forced the crown prince to quickly appoint a crown princess.
She hoped that the prince would give birth to a child as soon as possible, but suddenly news came from the Eastern Palace that the prince was in poor health and might have difficulty in having children. The court officials immediately became dissatisfied with the Eastern Palace, wondering how a sickly person could take on the responsibility of ruling the country.
The third, fourth and fifth princes took the opportunity to win over the forces in the court. Now the power in the court is divided into several factions, and it seems that the prince is currently in a weak position.
But in Chu Jiuning's opinion.
His Highness is ill in front of him and surrounded by tigers and wolves behind him, but he can still come and go freely. Just by sitting there quietly, he can shock everyone, so she thinks it would not be a mistake to bet on him.
"Miss Chu, are you serious about what you just said?"
Wuyou was extremely anxious. This time the poison was very powerful. Although His Highness seemed to be very calm, his internal organs were actually in excruciating pain as if they were pierced by thousands of arrows.
"certainly."
Chu Jiuning nodded and handed the warm water to the Crown Prince's lips.
A faint fragrance came over, which made people feel very comfortable. The prince slowly took two sips.
Seeing that His Highness did not reject her, Chu Jiuning smiled slightly.
The room was filled with dancing light, and the low light faded away.
