"What are you yelling about!" Liang Jiugong said to Li Dequan in a low voice, clearly displeased. Kangxi was furious, and Li Dequan was practically asking for trouble.
"Master, something's happened! Someone's trying to harm the Crown Princess!" Li Dequan said, handing Qiu Xin's confession to Liang Jiugong.
Liang Jiugong quickly glanced at it, then hurriedly ran into the hall with the confession in his hand.
Just as Kangxi and the Crown Prince were about to clash, Liang Jiugong stumbled in.
Emperor Kangxi was just about to lose his temper.
“Your Majesty, Granny Dolan is trying to harm the Crown Princess! This is the testimony that Li Dequan just obtained from Qiu Xin.” Liang Jiugong presented the testimony to Kangxi, whose face turned very ugly after reading it.
"What's going on, Eunuch Liang?" the Crown Prince asked anxiously.
"Your Highness, Qiu Xin said that Granny Duolan put a weakening drug in the ginseng soup that the Crown Princess drinks every day!" Liang Jiugong said hurriedly.
"Father, I take my leave!" The Crown Prince had barely finished speaking when he left the Qianqing Palace and rushed towards the Yuqing Palace.
After reading the confession, Emperor Kangxi was furious. He couldn't understand how Consort Liang, such a gentle woman, could have such a vicious mind.
"Liang Jiugong, hurry, to Yuqing Palace!" Kangxi couldn't care less about anything else now; he needed to make sure that He Xue was safe and sound before he could feel at ease.
Just as Emperor Kangxi was about to go to Yuqing Palace, he ran into the Imperial Noble Consort.
"Cousin, where are you going?" The Imperial Noble Consort asked, noticing Kangxi's anxious expression.
"Granny Dolan actually tried to harm Hexue!" Kangxi said simply to the Imperial Noble Consort.
"What?" Upon hearing this, the Imperial Noble Consort nearly lost her balance.
The Imperial Noble Consort steadied herself, a flicker of surprise and anger crossing her eyes. She took Ren Dong's hand, "Quickly, I must go to Yuqing Palace too!"
In Yuqing Palace, He Xue had no idea that Granny Duolan had ulterior motives.
At this moment, Granny Dolan brought the ginseng soup to Hexue, saying, "Your Highness, it's time for your ginseng soup!"
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, He Xue reluctantly picked up the bowl to drink.
The Crown Prince rushed in anxiously, forcefully knocking the bowl out of He Xue's hand. Seeing that He Xue hadn't drunk it, he finally felt relieved.
He Xue was confused by the Crown Prince's actions, and seeing that he was panting heavily with a layer of fine sweat on his forehead, she said, "Crown Prince, please sit down!"
Then he poured a cup of tea for the crown prince, who drank it all in one gulp.
He Xue took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from the Crown Prince's forehead before asking, "Crown Prince, what happened?"
"Guards, seize this old scoundrel!" the Crown Prince said, pointing at Granny Dolan.
Soon someone came in and arrested Mother Dolan.
"Your Highness, what are you doing? This old servant is here at Yuqing Palace to take care of the Crown Princess on the orders of the Empress Dowager."
"What you are doing now is disrespectful to the Empress Dowager!" Granny Dolan struggled incessantly.
"You dare mention the Empress Dowager? You have utterly betrayed her trust!" the Crown Prince said angrily, pointing at Granny Dolan.
Soon after, Emperor Kangxi and the Imperial Noble Consort arrived.
The Imperial Noble Consort already knew what had happened on her way here. She was so angry that she trembled all over. She originally thought that Granny Dolan was the Empress Dowager's person and must be a reliable person. She never expected her to do such a thing.
The Imperial Noble Consort decided to personally select several reliable people for He Xue.
