If successful, this informant will then collude with those on the inside.
Now that we know, should we pretend to ignore it, or should we do something about it?
Haitang, please come up. I want to ask Song Tangxue how to handle this.
Song Tangxue said calmly, "Just like those people, assign them all some unimportant tasks and send them as far away as possible."
As she spoke, Lianzhi added another sentence.
"At the same time, send a few clever maids to mingle among them and keep a close eye on them."
We mustn't let them take advantage of any weakness.
Seeing that Lianzhi had finished speaking and Song Tangxue hadn't said anything, Haitang knew that she must agree with what Lianzhi said.
She immediately replied, "This servant will take care of it right away. Fortunately, the master has also sent quite a few capable people!"
They now have enough manpower, making it much easier for them to do whatever they want.
Moreover, these people are exceptionally capable, making them more reliable to employ.
The crabapple blossoms came and went in a hurry, keeping everyone busy and bustling about.
Lianzhi said with some envy after seeing it.
"Miss is so biased, making Haitang busy outside every day, while I can only stay by your side."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lianzhi suddenly collapsed to the ground and couldn't get up.
"Lianzhi!" Song Tangxue called out, anxiously standing up to help her, but to no avail.
"Can you control yourself right now? Can you even hear me?!"
Song Tangxue quickly asked, but the response was silence.
Lianzhi seemed to have lost her mind, convulsing on the spot, her face turning ashen.
Upon seeing this, Song Tangxue realized that these were the same symptoms she had experienced at the pharmacy last time.
She suddenly felt a chill, but before she could think any further, she quickly took out her silver needles.
Fortunately, I always carry this thing with me wherever I go, just in case.
The unusual activity inside quickly startled Xie Qianzhong.
He rushed over, and Song Tangxue was in the servants' quarters at the moment.
She stayed by his side, but the internal bleeding did not provide any relief. Now he was only able to survive on acupuncture and his own little bit of life-saving medicine.
"What exactly happened? Was it a natural disaster or man-made?"
As soon as Xie Qianzhong entered, he asked directly, his eyebrows furrowed.
Song Tangxue looked at him solemnly: "The poisoning is exactly the same as that of those people, and Lianzhi has been right in front of me all along, yet someone has poisoned her. That means that you and I are both in the open."
Despite their heavy protection, it seemed to be of no use.
And what is the other party's purpose in doing all this?
Is it meant to warn them about something, or to make an example of them?
Song Tangxue thought that all of this might be related to the court politics, so she quickly asked again.
"Who have you offended recently, and now you're trying to vent your anger in a fit of rage?"
“I have sent them to investigate, while we are protected in every way, so she certainly doesn’t have that much protection, making it easier for her to succeed.”
Xie Qianzhong spoke first, then comforted him, "Don't think too much, and don't be afraid."
"This is the first time someone has dared to be so arrogant around me. I can't swallow this insult!"
Song Tangxue's face turned even more pale. She hadn't expected that someone would make a move at this critical juncture, only on the second day of their marriage.
It's hard for her not to overthink it; she's definitely after her.
"Is anyone in danger now?" Xie Qianzhong changed the subject.
Song Tangxue nodded: "I've kept her alive with medicine. If we can't find an antidote in the next few days, I'm afraid..."
As Song Tangxue finished speaking, even she became hesitant, which shows that she was not confident about the matter.
Xie Qianzhong understood that although Lianzhi had previously been Song Tangli's person, she had also helped him commit evil deeds.
But later she realized her mistake and forgave her, so naturally she didn't want to watch Lianzhi die.
"Could it be the Crown Princess's doing? Was she the one who did it last time?"
Xie Qianzhong suddenly raised a concern and looked at Song Tangxue with a puzzled expression.
Song Tangxue frowned, as if he couldn't figure out the key to it, and then he explained.
"Everyone knows what the Crown Princess thinks of you. It's not unusual for her to want to suppress you in that kind of situation. Besides, Lianzhi is her person, so she naturally knows your habits very well and can easily take action."
Song Tangli had long harbored resentment towards Lian Zhi's betrayal and naturally wanted to destroy their current cooperation.
Song Tangxue never imagined this would happen; she had been misled before.
"I used to think it was the work of the enemy. The Third Prince hates me so much, he would never let go of the Crown Prince's offer of cooperation."
In the end, the source wasn't local people, but rather the Ajarn's side.
“Our previous assumptions were all too obvious, and all those obvious assumptions were what Song Tangli showed us, what we wanted to see!”
Song Tangxue finally figured it out and discovered the trickery involved.
She stared blankly at Lianzhi, who was now unconscious: "Could it really be so?"
For someone as petty as Song Tangli to do all this was perfectly reasonable, and she would never have hesitated in the slightest.
"Everything is just speculation right now, so don't let it affect your mood too much."
Xie Qianzhong said that he did not want to see Song Tangxue having wild thoughts.
Song Tangxue understood what he meant, but the situation had already become extremely serious.
"Our prediction is absolutely correct, there will be no problem!"
Song Tangxue had become much more resolute, and Xie Qianzhong said, "I'll have them investigate to see if Song Tangli has made any unusual moves recently."
"Go quickly! I thought she was so smug lately because of her pregnancy, but I didn't expect there was something else going on!"
Song Tangxue is now becoming increasingly resolute and has no desire to waste any more time.
Xie Qianzhong quickly left to make arrangements, while Song Tangli was unaware that she had already given herself away.
She was much calmer this time: "Seeing her angry but not daring to speak out today made me feel relieved!"
Xiaoyao helped peel the apple, and after Song Tangli finished speaking, she immediately expressed her feelings.
"I will do anything to please Your Highness!"
"That's far from enough. We need to figure out a way to make the homecoming banquet the day after tomorrow disgusting!"
Song Tangli will definitely not give up easily; she is still thinking that she has hidden her true colors very well.
Little did they know, a storm was about to break.
That evening, of course, there was still no reply, and Song Tangxue pondered many things.
She lay there not resting, but rather lost in thought.
"Go to sleep first. Even if you rack your brains, it's useless if you don't find any evidence."
Xie Qianzhong offered a reminder, but Song Tangxue seemed reluctant.
"I was thinking about whether there were other ways to approach it, maybe that would be useful."
Although she had handed the case over to someone else to investigate, Song Tangxue could not rest easy, as these were lives at stake.
"More importantly, I'm afraid she'll retaliate," Song Tangxue said, then added another sentence.
