"?" This answer surprised Chang'an, but Bai Lu's approach made Chang'an very satisfied.
"Miss, there is something I don't understand."
Chang'an saw the doubt in Bai Lu's eyes through the bronze mirror, "What is it that makes you so confused?"
"Last night's meal, when this servant brought it over, was clearly tested to make sure there were no problems before it was brought in." Bai Lu said, "The young lady and the prince's meal had clearly been consumed, but they are fine."
"First, there's something wrong with your silver needles." Chang'an thought for a moment, "Second, the person is fine after using the food. That only means that I threw away some of the food you saw, rather than eating it."
Chang'an thought that he had actually eaten it, and as for the fact that he was fine, it was naturally because the ice silkworm mask and the dominoes left to him by his mother had played a role.
Combining these two into one, and applying them to oneself, can help one avoid poison, and all kinds of poisons.
As for why Bei Mingxuan was not poisoned, Chang'an hesitated to speak and finally did not tell her. That was Bei Mingxuan's business.
Chang'an thought about last night when he ate his meal without any precautions. However, when Bei Mingxuan came over, he could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with the meal, and he knew it was the poison of the cartilage powder as soon as he smelled it.
After hearing what Bei Mingxuan said, especially after getting confirmation, she admired Bei Mingxuan from the bottom of her heart.
Thinking of this, Chang'an was curious about how Bei Mingxuan knew that the poison in the food was the colorless and tasteless cartilage powder.
"Let's go, pack up our things, we still have to continue on our journey." Chang'an came out of the room.
Bei Mingxuan, Imperial Physician Yu, and Nangong Rui happened to be walking past the door.
"Old minister, greetings to Princess Xuan." Imperial Physician Yu lowered his head.
"Doctor Yu, there's no need to go any further." Chang'an smiled. "We're outside right now, so there's no need for so many rules."
"Yes." Doctor Yu looked at the smile on Chang'an's face, but for some reason, he always felt that Chang'an was not as easy to get along with as he seemed.
Bei Mingxuan, who was standing beside him, showed a trace of heartache on his face, "It's my fault. I scared you last night."
He said, grasping the long hand in his own, "There are dark circles under my eyes."
"..." Chang'an still smiled, but in his heart he was thinking, "He's just a big bad wolf who says one thing and means another. I have to be careful with this guy, or else he'll swallow me up if I'm not careful."
"Doctor Yu." Chang'an's voice was light. "I'm old now. Being away from home is not as comfortable as being at home. I slept well last night."
"Thank you, Princess Xuan, for your concern." Doctor Yu's heart skipped a beat, and a trace of sweat appeared on his forehead. "I just don't know why he suddenly lost consciousness yesterday. It's my fault that I was incompetent. When the prince and princess needed me most, I couldn't help."
Chang'an raised a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her lips. She knew that there was something wrong with Doctor Yu, and now the truth has been revealed.
There was a cunning in her pure eyes, revealing her shrewdness like a little fox.
Having such a insightful and shrewd woman by Bei Mingxuan's side is the best gift God has given him.
In Bei Mingxuan's eyes, Chang'an's kindness, a little darkness, and the deliberate difficulties, everything about him deeply attracted him.
"Huh?" Chang'an turned around and glanced at Doctor Yu behind him. "So, Doctor Yu knew why I couldn't wake up, and he thought you didn't know."
“…” Yes, no one told me, so how did I know that I was poisoned?
Imperial Physician Yu was half-hearted, his mind racing. "As an Imperial Physician, I have a feeling whether someone fell asleep naturally or due to medication. For a doctor, this is fundamental."
After saying this, Doctor Yu was very satisfied with his excuse.
Similarly, when Chang'an heard such an excuse, he could only say, "Hehe."
And I said to myself, okay, I will make you, this old man, pay for your words soon.
Chang'an was thinking seriously, and Bei Mingxuan, who was holding her hand tightly, chuckled beside her, with a helpless and interesting smile on his face.
Could it be that he knew what I was thinking?
On the dining table.
Bei Mingxuan said with a genial expression, "Doctor Yu, please take a look and see if there is anything wrong with the food. I don't want what happened last night to happen again."
Chang An remained calm, muttering to himself, "As expected, Bei Mingxuan knows what I'm thinking."
"Yes." Doctor Yu took out a silver needle and first tried the food in front of Bei Mingxuan and Chang'an.
In order, it was Nangong Rui's, then his own, and then the others'.
When he finished testing the poison, everyone started to eat. However, Doctor Yu never expected that after eating the meal, he would have an allergic reaction and his whole body would itch.
After the meal, everyone got ready and mounted their horses to leave.
When walking out of the post station, Changan seemed to be inadvertently seeing Doctor Yu, and saw him scratching his face continuously. "Doctor Yu."
Changan did it on purpose.
When Doctor Yu saw that it was Chang'an, he quickly covered his face with a piece of cloth and said, "This old minister greets Princess Xuan."
"I wonder why Doctor Yu is covering his face with a piece of cloth?" Chang'an looked curious.
At this time, Bei Mingxuan and Nangong Rui just walked out and saw it.
"Doctor Yu." Nangong Rui said, "What are you doing? You're an old man, are you still shy?"
"Ugh!!!" Imperial Physician Yu said awkwardly, "Prince Nangong, please don't make fun of me. I have a lot to say. It's allergic, and I have a lot of rashes on my face."
After saying that, he took off the cloth on his face, revealing his old face, which looked red all over, perhaps because of the rash or because of embarrassment.
"Allergy?" Bei Mingxuan frowned. "How could it be so serious? Doctor Yu, did you touch something?"
"Your Highness," Doctor Yu replied, twisting his body, "I'm telling you straight up, it's not just on my face, it's all over my body as well, and it's incredibly itchy."
"Doctor Yu is a master of the Imperial Hospital. He will surely be able to cure my allergy." Bei Mingxuan thought for a moment and said, "How about Doctor Yu stay at this inn for the time being and treat his allergy. When he feels better, we can catch up with him on horseback."
Chang An deliberately said, "I believe that by now, Imperial Physician Yu has already figured out what caused the allergy. After all, he's a doctor from the Imperial Hospital, so he must have felt it. Is that what Imperial Physician Yu said?"
These words were like a slap in his face, but he had to eat it.
At this time, the old face became even redder!
The most important thing is that he still has a mission and dare not delay it, otherwise he will be punished by his master.
You know, compared to the itchiness at this moment, the master's methods are nothing. "This old minister dare not delay. The prince's body cannot tolerate the cold. If the cold poison invades his body, how can we deal with it? It is better for this old minister to follow."
