Chapter 60 Two Poisons



At first, Granny Qi was puzzled, but she quickly realized what Yin Hengyi was talking about. Her face changed drastically, and she hurriedly knelt down to the bedside. Her hand trembled as she reached under Yin Qingyi's nose. After confirming that she was still breathing, she felt relieved, but she quickly became worried again. It was impossible for Physician Li to be joking. So, the princess had really been drugged right under her nose!

Naqi's mother's eyes instantly reddened; she mustn't let her know who it was!

Outside the door, Yinzhen saw Yin Hengyi come out with a dark face, and the joy on his face disappeared.

"How come..." Yinzhen began to ask.

"Your Highness, the Princess has been poisoned. Everyone who entered this delivery room is a suspect. Please have Luoxue Pavilion sealed off." Yin Hengyi interrupted Yinzhen's questioning, his voice urgent.

"Shadow Master and Shadow Master! Guard the entrances and exits of Luoxue Pavilion. No one is allowed to leave or enter!" Yinzhen's face immediately turned ugly, and he shouted coldly.

"Yes!" Suddenly, two figures appeared on the ground and then disappeared. They probably went to guard the entrance and exit.

"What happened? How could she be poisoned? How is she now?" Yinzhen asked hurriedly after the person left.

“When I entered, the princess had already been poisoned. She is not in immediate danger, but if the poison is not neutralized soon, her life may be in danger.” Yin Hengyi’s voice was deep.

Do you know what kind of poison it is? Is there an antidote?

"The princess is poisoned by more than one kind of poison. It's both Dream Return Powder and Falling Return Powder. These two poisons have similar effects, causing people to die in their sleep. If it were only one kind, I could cure it now, but since it's both poisons together, I don't have enough medicine. Moreover, because these two poisons are combined, the princess only has three days left. If it can't be cured in three days, then the princess will..." Yin Hengyi pursed his lips tightly. Damn it, he knew how to cure it, but damn it, he didn't have the medicine!

"Write down what medicinal herbs you need, and I'll have someone buy them!" Yinzhen said immediately.

“Okay.” Yin Hengyi took out paper and pen, not caring whether there was a table or chair, and sat down on the floor to start writing. After writing a page of medicinal herb names in a flowing style, he got up and handed it to Yinzhen.

"Su Peisheng, go to all the major pharmacies in the capital tomorrow to buy it." Yinzhen handed it to Su Peisheng without even glancing at it.

"Remember, these medicinal herbs must be gathered within three days. If the time is missed, I won't be able to save him," Yin Hengyi instructed Su Peisheng before he turned to leave.

"Yes." Su Peisheng nodded and left in a hurry.

After Su Peisheng left, Yinzhen went straight into the delivery room, not caring about anything auspicious or inauspicious. This little woman was in trouble, how could he care about such things?

Once inside, Yinzhen didn't even glance at the triplets, heading straight for Consort Yin. As for searching for the culprits outside, that would be handled by others. He only needed to know the result; he didn't need to know the process.

"Master, why have you come in?" Although Granny Qi was worried, she did not expect Yinzhen to come in.

"There's no need for you to persuade me, Granny. I'm worried about her." Yinzhen thought Granny Qi wanted to persuade him to leave, so he directly stopped her.

"..." Granny Qi opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing. She hadn't actually thought of persuading Yinzhen to leave; she was just surprised that Yinzhen had come in.

Yinzhen didn't notice that Granny Qi's expression was a little off. He just sat by the bed looking at the sleeping baby. Perhaps because she had just given birth, her lips were still chapped and her complexion was pale and unhealthy. Yinzhen didn't like the lifeless Yinqingyi at all.

"You must get better soon. I've already sent Su Peisheng to find medicine for you. You'll definitely get better. When that happens, I'll promote you, okay?" Yinzhen's voice was a little hoarse as he gently stroked Yin Qingyi's hair. His eyes were filled with a tenderness he had never shown before.

He hadn't originally intended to promote Yin Qingyi so soon. After all, Yin Qingyi hadn't been in the household for long, and he was afraid that giving her such special favor would cause this little woman to lose her true nature. But now it seemed that it was time to promote her. The women in the backyard were not easy to deal with; they all had the ability to protect themselves and could bully this little woman. So he would promote her so that no one would dare to bully her.

He could also arrange for more people to protect her. As a princess, her being a servant in public was already somewhat overstepping her bounds. He also sent people to protect her in private, but it was still not as convenient as being in public.

"Your Highness, what kind of poison has the Princess been poisoned with? Does Physician Li have a cure?" When Granny Qi heard what Yinzhen said, she was happy for the Princess, but she was still a little worried. She wondered if the Princess had been cured of the poison. If not, then the Princess's appearance as a concubine would be that of a dead woman, and she would never have the same splendor as she had in life.

"Don't worry, Madam. Physician Li has written the prescription. All we need to do is prepare the herbs." Yinzhen spoke as if it were a simple matter, but even without seeing the prescription written by Yin Hengyi, Yinzhen knew from the date and time limit mentioned by Yin Hengyi that some of these herbs might be hard to find.

Naqi's mother nodded and said nothing more, and the room fell silent for a moment.

"Wah!" Suddenly, a cry broke the silence of the room.

Then, just like the butterfly effect, cries rang out one after another, and the three little darlings who had only cried twice at birth woke up.

Yinzhen seemed to suddenly remember the three children. He got up and went to the large crib. Looking at the three little pink bundles inside, his heart softened. These were his and Qingqing's children.

"Granny, what's wrong with them?" Yinzhen looked at the three little ones who were crying uncontrollably and was at a loss.

"Master, the young masters are probably hungry. This old servant will go and bring the wet nurse over." After saying this, Granny Qi left the delivery room, leaving Yinzhen alone to face the three hungry little ones, completely at a loss.

Fortunately, Yinzhen didn't have to wait too long. Then, Granny Qi brought in three wet nurses. The delivery room had separate rooms, so the three wet nurses each carried a baby into the room to breastfeed.

"I'll trouble you then, Granny. I'll go out and take care of some things." Yinzhen turned back to Yin Qingyi's side, leaned down and gently kissed her forehead. Then he left the room; the time he had given was almost up, and the drama outside should have come to an end.

After Yinzhen went outside, he saw servants kneeling all over the ground. Su Peisheng was standing at the very front. He had entrusted the matter of the medicinal herbs to Su Xiaobao, but Su Xiaobao couldn't handle things here. It was up to him.

"My lord, everyone who has been in contact with the princess's food is here," Su Peisheng said in a low voice.

"Hmm, Physician Li, could you possibly find out who has been exposed to the poison?" Yinzhen nodded and looked at Yin Hengyi, who had not yet left.
