Chapter 232: Difficult



What unbelievable thing did Yang Xinwan do?

And didn’t Yang Xinwan like Xue Zixiao very much in the past?

Why would he treat Xue Zixiao like this now?

The reason behind this made the butler feel a little puzzled.

He said seriously: "Lead the way, I want to meet General Xue."

If the butler didn't see Xue Zixiao's current situation with his own eyes, he would be afraid that when the prime minister asked about it, he would not be able to explain to the prime minister.

Yang Qingyuan is the concubine of the prime minister's family and has not yet married. It is not appropriate for her to be alone with a man from another family, right?

Even though it was daytime and there were still many servants in the courtyard, if the news got out, it would eventually affect his reputation.

When the housekeeper arrived in the room, the doctor already had a complete understanding of Xue Zixiao's condition. After the housekeeper asked, the doctor explained:

"General Xue is just in a coma. Although it is harmful to his body, the damage is very small and can be completely ignored."

"Also... this drug is quite strong, so you have to be unconscious for more than two days... I'll write you a prescription!"

The housekeeper asked hesitantly, "Even if you go to prescribe medicine, it won't help him wake up earlier?"

The doctor said somewhat embarrassedly: "The prescription only maintains General Xue's nutritional needs for the next two days...it is not a prescription to wake General Xue up."

"If you want General Xue to wake up quickly, you have to use external stimulation..."

"For example, cut his hand to let some blood out, or immerse him in cold water."

When the housekeeper heard this, he felt that it was a little unreliable.

So it would be more normal to let the doctor prescribe some medicine to replenish Xue Zixiao's nutrition for the next few days!

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Doctor." The housekeeper said somewhat awkwardly.

Afterwards, the doctor went to write a prescription.

The housekeeper looked at Yang Qingyuan and said, "Second Miss, General Xue will be unconscious for more than two days. It's not convenient for him to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion, right?"

Yang Qingyuan did not feel embarrassed and said easily, "There is no reason for me to force the general to stay in my courtyard, right? The housekeeper can make his own arrangements. I just don't want my eldest sister to mess around and harm the entire Xiangfu, that's all."

The housekeeper's eyes flickered: "I wonder if the second young lady knows why the eldest young lady treats General Xue like this?"

In the past, Yang Xinwan must have admired Xue Zixiao very much, and she would never hurt Xue Zixiao.

But now, Yang Xinwan did this...

The housekeeper wants to find out how much of a jerk Yang Xinwan is. Isn't this an opportunity to put Yang Xinwan down and highlight her?

Yang Qingyuan's eyes lit up instantly, and she told the housekeeper the whole story with some exaggeration.

After hearing this, the butler calmly arranged for his servants to send Xue Zixiao back to the general's mansion.

He assured Yang Qingyuan, "I will report the matter to the master. What the young lady did today was indeed inconsiderate."

After saying this, the butler walked out.

Yang Qingyuan narrowed her eyes slightly. If Yang Xinwan was not punished this time, it would be too easy for her.

The Prime Minister was also surprised when he heard this.

He didn't know when Yang Xinwan broke up with Xue Zixiao, nor did he know what kind of relationship Yang Xinwan and Yun Xuanting had.

Seeing that the Prime Minister pursed his lips tightly and did not speak, the housekeeper speculated: "Master, the reason why the young lady treated General Xue like this is probably because she was poisoned by General Xue, and the young lady is angry, so..."

The prime minister's eyes flickered. He had not expected this to happen.

But it's not impossible.

If this had happened in the past, it would have been impossible not to tell him.

Yang Xinwan seems to have changed a lot now, which makes him somewhat unable to see through her.

Yang Xinwan was staying in the room while the maid was waiting outside.

Seeing the Prime Minister approaching slowly, the maid immediately stood up and said, "Master."

The Prime Minister asked calmly, "How is the young lady?"

"I fell asleep after taking the medicine. Although the source of the poison has not been found, fortunately there is medicine to treat it."

The prime minister stroked his beard. He had some questions in his mind that he wanted to ask Yang Xinwan, but if Yang Xinwan took a rest, he should not disturb her.

The prime minister stood there without moving. The maid felt the pressure emanating from him. She lowered her head, looked at her toes, and tried her best to ignore the pressure.

"I'm asking you, who do you think the murderer is?"

The maid was stunned. The housekeeper was investigating but to no avail.

She was just a maid. Not only did she not get involved in the investigation, she also didn't understand medical knowledge. How should she answer?

"I don't know."

The prime minister was not surprised by the maid's answer, but he did not give up. Instead, he asked again: "Then who do you think the young lady suspects is the murderer?"

The maid felt that the prime minister's previous questions were difficult enough to answer, and this question made her even more confused about how to respond.

The maid knelt on the ground and said, "Master... I don't know, and I can't guess. Butler, maybe there will be some results after the butler investigates."

But now the Prime Minister keeps asking her questions, isn't this making things difficult for her?

The Prime Minister frowned and asked again, "What do you think of the relationship between General Xue and Xin Wan?"

The maid was stunned. How did it bring up their relationship again?

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yang Xinwan and Xue Zixiao definitely have no bad relationship...

However, even though everyone can see it, the marriage between the two was granted by the emperor, and people like them cannot make irresponsible comments!

The maid said in embarrassment: "The two of them are engaged, so their relationship is naturally special."

The maid's answers were all very proper, without any opinions of her own, which made the prime minister feel very uncomfortable.

He frowned and asked again, "Do you think it's possible that the person who poisoned me is Xue Zixiao?"

This question made the maid stiffen instantly, and she raised her head to look at the prime minister.

The maid knew that Xue Zixiao and Yang Xinwan were not on good terms now, but she never thought that it was Xue Zixiao who poisoned Yang Xinwan!

This conjecture is too incredible, isn't it?

The maid quickly said, "This servant... dare not speculate, Master, please wait for the housekeeper to investigate and ask the housekeeper!"

The maid's answer once again made the prime minister feel that it was of no value at all.

He lost his patience and did not ask the maid any more questions. Instead, he walked towards the room.

The fastest way to confirm this speculation is to ask the person involved.

In the room, the bed curtains were still drawn low. The prime minister had not thought of disturbing Yang Xinwan before, but now, he didn't care.

"Master... the young lady fell asleep after taking the medicine." The maid followed in.

The prime minister was naturally aware of this, but what he needed to do now was to find out whether the person who poisoned him had any connection with Xue Zixiao.

And why did Yang Xinwan throw Xue Zixiao out of the house?

By doing this, she definitely showed her attitude towards Xue Zixiao. He also had to find out whether Yang Xinwan had fallen in love with someone else and was involved with Yun Xuanting!

This concerns the honor and disgrace of the Prime Minister's Mansion!
