"Why wouldn't she dare? Without Anle's help, you would be looking at Xiaojiu's corpse."
What Gu Xinyuan said next sounded like sharp thorns to Queen Gu, and she wished she could pull them out immediately.
"It's precisely because she has the guts to do so that she hasn't taken you, the Queen, seriously in the palace for so many years. She used some trickery to get His Majesty away. I wonder what evil she's up to next to deal with the Gu family."
Queen Gu's anger grew rapidly.
"Brother, there's no need to say anything. I'll rush to Changle Palace right now to get His Majesty back from Huo Yulan."
She led the palace maids and left in a hurry.
Looking at the disappearing figure, Gu Xinyuan finally understood why Princess Anle insisted that he go to Feng'an Palace.
Princess Anle, at such a young age, had already unknowingly figured out his and his sister's personalities.
Know what they habitually say when they meet as siblings.
The reason why he agreed to come here to deliberately provoke his sister was because he knew that the other party had no ill will towards them and was willing to go.
He would not want to be used if the other party had any intention that was detrimental to him and the Gu family.
Tao Yuwei lay on the bed in the hall, waiting patiently for news.
I hope she was wrong. After all, Emperor Jianchang has doted on Concubine Huo and her son for many years, and everyone has witnessed it.
No matter how stupid Concubine Huo is, she would not rashly poison His Majesty before her son touches that position.
If there was any action, it was done by the lover hiding behind her.
I don’t know whether Queen Gu rushed to Changle Palace.
Just as she was waiting for news, a palace maid walked into the hall carrying a tray.
"Princess Anle, Imperial Physician Cao has sent this servant to bring you medicine. It's time for you to take it."
The visitor brought a bowl of black medicine to her mouth.
Turning sideways, she looked at the whole bowl of medicine. The bitter taste hit her face, and her whole face twisted together.
"Put it there first!"
She hates drinking black and sticky Chinese medicine the most.
Seeing that she was unwilling to take the medicine, the maid knelt down in panic and said, "Princess Anle, this bowl of medicine is at the perfect temperature. If it gets any colder, it will become cold and lose its medicinal properties. For your health, take the medicine as soon as possible to help your recovery."
Tao Yuwei thought for a moment and said, "Then bring it over!"
She struggled to sit up, took the bowl of medicine from the other person's hand, and put it to her mouth.
Before she even drank it, she couldn't stand the unpleasant smell of the medicine and started to retch.
The medicine bowl fell to the ground with a bang.
At this moment, the ninth prince Xiao Hanyu ran in.
"Sister Anle, what's wrong with you?"
Without bothering to answer the Ninth Prince's words, she stopped pretending to retch and quickly subdued the palace maid in front of her.
"Who sent you to deliver medicine to this princess?" Tao Yuwei moved as fast as lightning, grabbed the palace maid's neck and asked.
The maidservant, whose neck was being strangled, pleaded innocently, "Princess Anle, I am only delivering medicine to you on the orders of Imperial Physician Cao. Why are you making things difficult for me?"
Seeing her flushed face, Xiao Hanyu endured the discomfort and questioned the palace maid in confusion.
"Sister Anle, is there anything wrong with this person?"
"Tell me, who ordered you to poison this princess?"
The moment Tao Yuwei took the medicine bowl, she saw a look of nervousness in the palace maid's eyes.
Seeing that the matter was exposed, the palace maid didn't wait for her to continue asking questions. Black blood suddenly flowed from the corner of her mouth and she died all of a sudden.
Tao Yuwei stiffened her body and loosened her hands that were pinching the man's neck.
If she hadn't noticed something was wrong just now, she would be the one lying unconscious.
What a cruel heart!
