Ren Yaoqi frowned when he heard this. People outside couldn't do it. Could it be someone from Yanbei Palace?
As expected, Xiao Jingxi continued, "The only people who had the opportunity to take action back then were those in this mansion."
Ren Yaoqi fell silent upon hearing this. The only people in this mansion who had both the motive and the ability to poison someone were either the old princess or Xiao Heng's family. It was true that even if one was on guard against a thief in one's own home, it was still difficult to prevent him.
Seeing that Ren Yaoqi didn't say anything, Xiao Jingxi looked down at Ren Yaoqi, and thinking of the prescription that Ren Yaoqi had held in her hand before, Xiao Jingxi lowered his head and kissed her brow: "Don't worry, this kind of thing will never happen a second time. I will not tolerate anyone hurting you and our child." Although Xiao Jingxi's voice was as gentle as ever, it carried his kind of confidence and strength, as if he could do whatever he said, which made people feel extremely at ease.
Ren Yaoqi was silent for a long time before asking, "Is it because of this incident that Madam Gong has been staying away from the palace? Since Madam Gong sent someone who knew about the incident, there's no way someone might be suspicious of the Crown Prince's identity and is using my sister's childbirth as an excuse to implicate Madam Gong."
When Ren Yaohua gave birth prematurely, they all thought it was Xiao Qiao's fault. Now thinking about it, it's possible that the midwife had used some tricks to get her to invite Madam Gong. Thinking of this, Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Ren Yaohua and the child were fine in the end, otherwise...
If this is true, then the person behind this is truly sinister. Ren Yaohua and the child were so innocent! One careless mistake resulted in the death of two.
Ren Yaoqi was still in Xiao Jingxi's arms. Xiao Jingxi naturally sensed Ren Yaoqi's emotions and couldn't help but hug her and pat her back gently, comforting her: "Don't worry, I will find someone to investigate. If there really is someone behind this, I will never let them go."
Ren Yaoqi sighed and said "hmm".
Xiao Jingxi took out the prescription given by Madam Gong from Ren Yaoqi's sleeve pocket and said, "Madam Gong is not a doctor, but she is much better than many famous doctors when it comes to matters like childbirth. Since she gave you the prescription, you should try it."
Ren Yaoqi blushed slightly, snatched the house and put it back into her sleeve pocket, whispering, "You don't like taking medicine, but you're controlling me!"
Xiao Jingxi had excellent hearing. He gently turned Ren Yaoqi's face and said with a smile, "Madam, what are you mumbling about?"
Ren Yaoqi ignored the fact that her face was deformed by Xiao Jingxi's mischievous hand and said in a slurred voice, "I was wondering why that potted plant in your study smells like Chinese medicine! What kind of water did you use to water it?"
Xiao Jingxi remained calm upon hearing this: "This is a new variety I had brought back from Yunnan. It needs to be watered with medicine to survive."
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but roll her eyes and reached out to pinch Xiao Jingxi's face. They pinched each other, their faces deformed, looking very childish: "My father also planted a lot of flowers and plants. Don't think I don't know what those plants are! You're talking nonsense..."
Before Ren Yaoqi could finish, Xiao Jingxi came over and quickly covered Ren Yaoqi's lips. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it or vote for it monthly.
