Chapter 809
"It's nothing serious!" Zhong Jie turned her head. "Go call the doctor!"
Knowing that Huo Zhao was not feeling well, Zhong Jie lost interest in strolling through the garden and took Huo Zhao back to the courtyard.
The doctor came over, took my pulse, and frowned deeply.
Ji Xiang Le An also became nervous, and the two even began to recall Huo Zhao's menstrual blood from the previous month.
It's pretty punctual.
The doctor took her pulse for a long time before finally saying, "The young mistress has been poisoned."
"Poisoning?!"
Huo Yue stood up abruptly: "What exactly happened?!"
At this moment, his murderous aura, typical of a battlefield warrior, was fully revealed, which was extremely frightening.
The doctor was instinctively flustered: "Your Highness, please calm down. The young mistress's poisoning is not severe and has not damaged her fundamental health."
Zhong Jie also said, "Please sit down first!"
Huo Yue then sat down, but his gaze remained fixed on the doctor.
Zhong Jie spoke again, her voice trembling slightly: "Doctor, what kind of poison is it? Is it serious?"
The doctor turned to Huo Zhao and asked, "Young Madam, have you been feeling unwell lately? When did the dizziness start?"
"It seems to have been... three to five days ago," Huo Zhao said. "There are no other discomforts yet."
The doctor nodded: "It's not possible to make a definitive diagnosis on the young mistress's poisoning yet... If it's convenient, I'd like to go to the kitchen to take a look."
"Jixiang, take the doctor there."
Ji Xiang responded and quickly led the doctor outside.
Zhong Jie frowned deeply: "No matter what, we can't stay in this Marquis's mansion any longer."
The poisoning must have been done by someone; clearly, someone in the Marquis's mansion wanted to harm Huo Zhao!
They're using a slow-acting poison now, so nothing will happen for the time being. But what if they alert the enemy and get that person to retaliate without regard for the consequences?
Human life is far more fragile than imagined; Huo Yue and Zhong Jie cannot afford to gamble with it.
Huo Yue also said, "That's right, let's go back to the Prince's Mansion now. Your courtyard has been carefully maintained, so you can move in as soon as you get back!"
Zhong Jie turned her head and said, "Le'an, see if there's anything that needs to be packed."
Le An shook his head.
The Prince's mansion was very well-equipped, so Huo Zhao could always return empty-handed and still stay comfortably there.
Zhong Jie nodded: "Then you take your men and block off several key areas of the Marquis's residence from the inside. I'll go back and call the guards over to surround the Marquis's residence!"
Huo Zhao was immediately helpless: "Mother, is it really necessary to make such a big fuss? Mobilizing the garrison troops will definitely cause a lot of noise. If people see this, who knows what they will think!"
Who knows, someone might say that she was wronged in the Marquis's mansion, and that Huo Yue and Zhong Jie were going to raid the mansion!
This is not a good thing for either the Prince's Mansion or the Marquis's Mansion in Yunnan.
Huo Yue said, "Don't worry. Mobilizing the garrison soldiers isn't about having them run all the way here in formation. There are ways to keep it secret, so you don't need to worry. However, this matter must be thoroughly investigated no matter what."
Being poisoned is no small matter.
Regardless of what kind of poison was used, the important thing is that the person who used the poison had the ability to use it!
If this person isn't brought to justice, they won't be able to keep Huo Zhao in the Marquis's residence with peace of mind anymore.
Seeing that Huo Yue and Zhong Jie were both firm in their stance, Huo Zhao didn't say anything more.
After all, she was the one who was poisoned, and she couldn't stay in the Marquis's mansion any longer.
