001 also shouted anxiously, "Watch out, treasure!"
When Qin Qian landed and Qin Yuecheng thrust out the short blade, she instinctively dodged and kicked at Qin Yuecheng's wrist. However, because she was squatting, she didn't have enough strength, and the short blade just fell to the ground. She also lost her balance and sat down on the ground.
Even though Qin Qianluo dodged quickly, the short blade still managed to cut a bloody gash on her neck. The sharp blade sliced across Qin Qianluo's slender, snow-white neck, and bright red blood gushed out instantly. Qin Qianluo sat on the ground, covering the wound on her neck with her hand, and was then embraced by Lin Ruoqing, who had just rushed over.
Qin Yuecheng was also restrained by a group of guards and pinned to the ground, unable to move. The atmosphere in the court was filled with anger. Qin Yuecheng saw that she had not hit the heart, but she had slashed Qin Qianluo's neck and laughed maniacally.
Even with the guards holding her down and her arms pinned behind her back, she forced herself to turn her head and look at Qin Qianluo with a sinister gaze, saying almost insanely, "Qin Qianluo, I've coated this dagger with a deadly poison. Once you're infected, you'll fall into a coma, suffer excruciating pain, and die. There's no antidote. You're finished! Hahahaha, you pampered young lady are going to hell with me!"
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this and turned to look at Princess Qingyun in Lin Ruoqing's arms. One of the generals couldn't hold back any longer, stepped forward, pulled Qin Yuecheng up, grabbed her collar fiercely, his eyes bloodshot, and demanded angrily, "Where is the antidote? Hand it over now!"
Qin Yuecheng struggled to grab the general's hand, and upon hearing his question, even though she was struggling to breathe from being strangled, she laughed maniacally: "There is no antidote for this poison. Qin Qianluo is going to hell with me, hahahaha! Since my Xuanyuan Kingdom can't have her, then you can't have her either!"
Everyone was furious, and the imperial physicians rushed forward to stop the bleeding and take her pulse. Lin Ruoqing was already crying her eyes out: "Luo'er, Luo'er, don't scare your mother."
001 was truly angry. How dare they harm Luo Bao right under its nose? Did they think it was a pushover? An invisible electric current surged into Qin Yuecheng's body, causing her to tremble and foam at the mouth. The general who was holding her by the collar hurriedly let go, and Qin Yuecheng fell to the ground, curling up in a ball and convulsing uncontrollably.
Everyone was confused by Qin Yuecheng's reaction. What had happened? Before they could react, they heard 001's tearful and angry voice.
While emitting electric current, 001 cried out, "This system will electrocute you, you damned woman! How dare you hurt my Luo Bao! How dare you poison my Luo Bao! You deserve to die!"
Everyone then realized that it was 001 who had made the move. However, Qin Yuecheng deserved to die, and her death was not a pity. Everyone thought this, and knowing that it was 001 who made the move, they stopped paying attention to Qin Yuecheng and looked with concern at Princess Qingyun, who was surrounded by the imperial physicians, and silently prayed that there must be a way to cure the poison!
After being poisoned, Qin Qianluo briefly lost consciousness. The imperial physician's acupuncture was swift, and Qin Qianluo quickly awoke. Upon regaining consciousness, she heard 001's angry and helpless voice. Weakly, she tried to reassure herself, "001...I...I'm alright...Leave her a breath...She...knows the secrets of the Emperor of Xuanyuan...Yes...she's still useful to the Emperor..."
Hearing Qin Qianluo's voice, 001 had no choice but to stop. "Okay, Luobao, hold on, don't fall asleep. Quickly drink the spiritual spring water. The spiritual spring water can cure all poisons, drink it quickly."
Seeing that 001 had been calmed down, Qin Qianluo felt relieved and looked at her mother. A reassuring smile graced her pale face as she weakly said, "Mother, don't cry... Luo'er... Luo'er is alright..."
Before she could finish speaking, Qin Qianluo fainted again. The imperial physician's acupuncture failed to revive her. Everyone was extremely anxious. Lin Ruoqing's eyes were red with worry, and Su Jinyun held Qin Qianluo's hand tightly, calling her name repeatedly.
Although the Emperor was anxious, he was also deeply moved. Despite being poisoned, the Emperor still stopped 001 from killing the culprit, just to give him time to question him. The Emperor wiped his eyes and calmed himself down.
Seeing that the imperial physician had already bandaged the wound, he raised his voice and said, "Guards, escort Princess Qingyun back to her residence first. The Imperial Physicians will accompany her. Throw Qin Yuecheng and Chen Guilan into the Heavenly Prison. Once Princess Qingyun has regained consciousness, she can make all the decisions."
The imperial physicians hurriedly packed their belongings, while the guards escorted Qin Yuecheng and Chen Guilan into the imperial prison. After thanking the Emperor, Lin Ruoqing picked up Qin Qianluo and stood up. Because she had been kneeling on the ground for too long and was under tension, she almost fell when she stood up. Fortunately, Su Jinyun was there to support her. Lin Ruoqing smiled gratefully, carried Qin Qianluo, and quickly walked out of the Golden Palace and onto the princess's ceremonial regalia that was already waiting in front of the palace.
After taking leave from Qin Xiang and Qin Jiyuan, Qin Xiang hurriedly boarded his own carriage with Qin Qianyu and followed them back to the mansion. Qin Xiang was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and his eyes were red. He hadn't dared to go forward to disturb the imperial physician's treatment and didn't know how Luo'er was doing.
Qin Jiyuan and Qin Qianyu were also filled with anxiety. They didn't know what the poison was made of, what the spiritual spring water was, or whether it could really cure the poison. Now that Luo'er was unconscious, how could they get the spiritual spring water for her to drink? Their hearts were pounding, and they could only keep urging the coachman to go faster and faster.
The morning court session ended hastily after the emperor said a few words. Everyone was anxious about Princess Qingyun's injuries, and even more so about how, without Princess Qingyun, there would be fewer things that would benefit the country in the future.
They genuinely felt sorry for Princess Qingyun, after all, she was such a lovable person. But as officials, after their concern and pity, they still thought of their own interests, since what Princess Qingyun offered was truly beneficial to the country's development and could also ensure their lasting fame.
