Chapter 99 Attack



"Yes. I just don't know what happened?"

"We were ambushed. That pervert, Sun Ziyou, actually kept my sister's body and mummified it. How disgusting!"

"Oh. Did they kill them all?"

"No, I left my grandson to worry about it. I still have something to ask him."

Ying Wu frowned and narrowed his eyes. He felt that the Second Young Lady's actions were unwise. The right thing to do was to eliminate the problem once and for all. Did the problem really matter?

"I took a whole bunch of antidote and now I feel hot all over. Do you understand this? Is it serious?"

Ying Wu opened his eyes wide, took two steps forward, grabbed Xu Yixing's wrist, and felt his pulse several times.

"Second Miss, I asked Ying Si to come back. I think you need treatment more than the Seventh Prince." After saying that, she strode away, and Xu Yixing couldn't stop her.

Her eyes were dizzy and her head was buzzing. She fell headfirst onto the bed, with two streams of blood flowing from her nose.

The carriage left the Xu residence and rushed all the way back to the Prince's residence. Lu Anyuan was still lying on the carriage board, not changing his posture. He just opened his eyes wide, recalling the feeling of Yi Xing pressing on him just now, and their hands. Yes, holding hands is really a beautiful thing.

After entering the Prince's Mansion, Lu Anyuan flipped upside down and sat in the carriage. He only heard the urgent voices coming from outside:

"What's wrong? What's wrong, Your Highness?"

Mr. Yao came hurriedly with his medicine box on his back. When he opened the curtain, he saw Lu Anyuan sitting cross-legged like a giant Buddha.

"Ada, what kind of poison is it?"

"Fengyan, but I've already taken the antidote." Ah Da was also feeling strange while driving the carriage. Why did the master look like he was dying in there? How could it be so serious? And he actually called the second lady and the eldest lady by their names. Could he be confused because of illness?

Mr. Yao twisted Lu Anyuan's wrist, examined it carefully for a while, then looked at the wounds on his body and the color in his mouth, his face looking very angry.

Seeing this, Ah Da's heart tightened: "Mr. Yao, is the injury serious?"

"You tell me yourself." Mr. Yao said unhappily, slamming the medicine box shut.

"What did I say? You're a doctor, so you let me speak."

This was intentional. Mr. Yao put on his medicine box and turned to leave.

"Hey wait! If someone from the Xu residence asks, you have to say that I was severely poisoned and it took you a while to save me. Got it?"

"Bah!" Mr. Yao spat fiercely. "Last time at my house, you were blinded by lust, and now you're lying to a woman again. Disgusting! I'll see how you'll cover up your lies if Miss Xu brings her poison expert with her!"

"Lust makes one lose their mind? Who are you talking about?"

However, Mr. Yao had already walked far away and could no longer hear.

But this reminder put Lu Anyuan in a dilemma. If Yixing really brought Ying Si here, then he wouldn't be able to hide it from him. Tsk! Never mind. At worst, he would just take a handful of poison and not admit that he had lied to her.

Lu Anyuan jumped off the carriage, stretched his muscles, and said to Ada with a pleasant face: "Ada, you don't know what happened in the carriage just now, right?"

"I don't know!" Ah Da replied loudly.

"Well, once things over there are settled, you can keep an eye on the mansion for me. If anyone from the Xu family comes, be sure to tell me in advance."

"yes!"

After Lu Anyuan arranged everything, he did not have the time to be unconscious like Xu Yixing. The emperor would soon know what his private soldiers had done, so he would have to think of an excuse quickly and wait to be summoned.

Xu Yixing is sick again, and very ill.

But this time it was entirely due to man-made disaster. After Ying Si arrived, he saw Xu Yixing who was unconscious, and got angry at Ying Jiu. However, he did not blame him for giving her so many medicines, but blamed him for using up all his stock.

"Do you know how much effort it took me to make those antidotes? You finished them all in one day. If you get poisoned again, don't come to me for medicine!"

"Oh my, oh my, can you please save her first and deal with my affairs later?"

"Why should I save her? The antidote she took is not poison. How can I save her?" Ying Si rolled his eyes and patted his bald head with his hands. He really had no idea what to do.

"But I ate a lot, so how come I'm fine?"

"She has the same constitution as you, and how do you know she's fine? I'm telling you, you should prepare five pounds of croton seeds soon, otherwise you'll die of suffocation when you can't poop!"

"Hey you!"

Ying Si left. This illness was incurable. Xu Yixing's body was now like a huge medicine jar, with all the medicine taking effect. The nosebleed was only the mildest symptom. She could only wait for her body to slowly adapt and then eliminate it, which would probably take a while.

While Lu Anyuan waited for Xu Yixing to rescue him, he prepared his excuse for going to the palace to see his father. The fire that had broken out in the early morning was too big to be concealed. His grandson, Youyou, had been detained and brought directly before the emperor.

The excuse he gave to the palace was that he suspected the Duke's Mansion of treason, so he led his troops to investigate. Unexpectedly, he discovered the Sun family's dungeon and was attacked by Sun Ziyou.

In this case, no matter what the Sun family does, Sun Ziyou is guilty of plotting to murder the prince and is close to treason, so he will definitely be put to death.

However, until the evening, he still didn't see Ying Si. Instead, the Empress Dowager's summons from the palace arrived first.

"Why was it summoned by the Queen Mother?"

"I don't know. Maybe she wants to see you about something."

Lu Anyuan shook his head. From this morning till now, his father had called Duke Sun and General Xu in turn. He heard that the Xu family's team to identify the body had already left the city. With such a big commotion, the Queen Mother would not choose this time to call him over to gossip.

"Forget it, let's go to the palace first. The Xu Mansion...hasn't sent anyone here?"

"No, I've been guarding here the whole time. Maybe it's too broad a day for Ms. Xu to send someone here?"

Lu Anyuan smiled bitterly. The more likely reason was that Yixing didn't care about him at all, or felt that with Mr. Yao around, there was no need to worry about him.

Alas! Yixing, your heart is really made of stone. But if that’s the case, what does it mean when you said you liked me in the car?

On May 10, after the news of Wu's concubine, an even more shocking news appeared in the capital: the eldest grandson of the Duke's Mansion was conspiring to rebel and murder the seventh prince. He had been taken to the Tianlao and was being tried by Jingzhao Prefecture and the Ministry of Justice.

Oh my god! The Duke's Mansion! The Sun family has been in the spotlight a bit too much lately. And talking about treason, how dare Sun Ziyou be so bold?

As various details were leaked, people learned another thing: Sun Ziyou's wife, Xu Yixing, the eldest daughter of Fuyuan General's Mansion, had actually died long ago, and the current Xu Yixing was simply a substitute!

According to rumors, the Seventh Prince was murdered by his grandson out of grief because he accidentally discovered Miss Xu's body. The cause of Miss Xu's death is therefore worth pondering.
