Chapter 138: Moved

Half an hour later, Xiyun Pavilion

"How is she?"

"Your Highness, Shen Liang Di was poisoned. I am just a little surprised. An ordinary person would have died on the spot if poisoned, but Shen Liang Di did not."

Xiao Jinyan said angrily: "Why do you care about these things? Why don't you treat him quickly?"

Doctor Wen Yu suspected that it was an occupational disease and was just curious about the reason.

"I understand. Fortunately, the poison has not yet spread to your internal organs. I will prepare the antidote for you."

Xiao Jinyan did not feel relieved when he heard this, because Shen Chuwei was poisoned and could die at any time.

While Doctor Wen Yu was preparing the medicine, Xiao Jinyan sat in front of the bed, looking at Shen Chuwei's gray little face, feeling very worried.

Doctor Wen Yu prepared the medicine quickly and brought over a bowl of steaming medicine.

Xiao Jinyan held Shen Chuwei in his arms and stretched out his hand, "For me."

Doctor Wen Yu presented it with both hands.

Xiao Jinyan held the bowl, looked at the thick black medicine juice, and knew from the smell that it was bitter, so he ordered: "Chunxi, prepare some water and preserved honey."

"Okay, I'll prepare it right away." Chunxi was so frightened that she almost fainted. It took her a long time to react and she ran to get some sweet and sour preserved fruits for later use.

Xiao Jinyan picked up the bowl, brought it to his lips and blew on it. When it cooled down a little, he pinched Shen Chuwei's jaw. Because of the experience of feeding her medicine last time, if he didn't pinch her jaw, she would not open her mouth at all, as if she knew that the medicine she was drinking was very bitter.

Chunxi saw this and couldn't help but remind him, "Your Highness, please be gentler. The young lady is afraid of suffering."

It was precisely because Shen Chuwei was afraid of suffering that Xiao Jinyan did this. He fed her the whole thing in one gulp. A lot of it overflowed from the corners of her mouth, but he didn't care.

After feeding, Xiao Jinyan took the clean water from Chunxi's hand and fed it to her. After feeding, he took the candied fruit and fed it into her mouth, letting her hold it to relieve the bitterness.

The series of actions were completed almost in an instant, and then he used a handkerchief to wipe the medicine from Shen Chuwei's mouth and neck.

Chunxi was stunned. Is this even possible?

An hour later Shen Chuwei woke up.

Chunxi wiped away her tears and said, "My lady, you finally woke up. I was so scared."

Shen Chuwei glanced around the room and didn't see Xiao Jinyan, so he asked, "Where is His Highness?"

"Your Highness has gone to catch the person who poisoned you. My young lady, you don't know that when you were unconscious, His Highness was almost going crazy and was very angry." Chunxi deliberately emphasized the last sentence.

Shen Chuwei was about to say, "Call Xiao Jinyan over."

Then I heard Chunxi say, "My lady, you are awake. I will inform His Highness immediately."

After saying that, he turned around and ran out like a gust of wind.

"Why are you running? At least listen to what I have to say!" Shen Chu sighed.

Xiao Jinyan heard that Shen Chuwei had woken up and quickly came to Xiyun Pavilion.

"Are you feeling better?" Xiao Jinyan strode over and sat down beside the bed.

It’s no wonder that Xiao Jinyan was so nervous, because Shen Chuwei was the only one who risked her own life to save him.

This is the second time I've saved him.

Shen Chu said weakly: "Your Highness, I am much better now."

Xiao Jinyan thought of the crab, his eyes turned cold, "It was me who harmed you. Don't worry, I will find the one who poisoned you."

Shen Chu hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Highness, I know there is something wrong with the crabs."

Xiao Jinyan was stunned when he heard this. Shen Chuwei once again risked her life to save him. How could he not be moved?

"You know? Then why do you still eat for me?"

Shen Chuwei said, "Because I didn't know the crab was poisoned, I only knew it had problems. Plus, I have a special constitution. If it was really poisoned, the poison wouldn't spread to my internal organs so quickly after I ate it, so there's still time to save me. If Your Highness ate it, I'm afraid there's no way to save me."

Because she often drank spiritual spring water, the poison spread very slowly, and she took precautions in advance, so she was not afraid of being poisoned.

Another reason is that only if she was poisoned would the matter become a big deal and the emperor would take it seriously.

Xiao Jinyan was stunned for a long time after hearing this. He was moved but also angry. "You are too ridiculous. How can you joke about your own body?"

Shen Chuwei was startled for a moment, and she simply changed the subject, "Your Highness, I remember the maid who served the dishes."

She was so craving for crabs that when the maid brought it to her, she kept staring at it and happened to see the movements of the maid's fingers.

Because we are not sure whether she did it intentionally or unintentionally, we can only know by tasting it ourselves.

Xiao Jinyan immediately understood what she meant, "Do you know who poisoned me?"

Shen Chu nodded slightly, "I can draw the palace maids."

Since I don’t know what the palace maid’s name is, I can only draw her to find her name.

Xiao Jinyan ordered: "Prepare the writing brush and ink."

Chunxi knew that Shen Chuwei didn't like brushes, so she took out the pencil and rice paper she usually used.

Shen Chuwei took a pencil and started drawing on the rice paper.

She had learned sketching, so she easily drew the appearance of the palace maid, and it was very similar to the real person, even the mole at the corner of the lip was drawn.

Xiao Jinyan looked at the portrait and found it much more like the person than those painted by other painters, so it was also easier to find.

"You take a rest, I will go and catch the man."

After Xiao Jinyan left, Shen Chuwei was very obedient and lay back in the quilt to continue sleeping.

Xiao Jinyan took the portrait and found the palace maid, named Qiu Kui, in less than an incense stick of time.

When she was grabbing okra, she didn't know that she was already exposed.

Qiu Kui knelt on the ground and asked carefully: "Your Highness, what did I do wrong that you want to arrest me?"

Xiao Jinyan asked coldly: "Don't you know what you have done?"

Qiu Kui replied with a guilty conscience: "Slave, I don't know."

Xiao Jinyan ordered in a cold voice: "Wei Chi, check her hand."

"Your respect is mine."

Wei Chi strode over, and before he touched Qiu Okra, Qiu Okra struggled fiercely, but was subdued by Wei Chi in just two moves.

Wei Chi grabbed her hand and looked at her index finger. The nail was very long. He took out a pair of scissors, cut off the nail and put it on the plate.

Doctor Wen Yu was standing nearby. He picked up the plate and brought it to his nose to smell it. He looked up at Xiao Jinyan and said, "Your Highness, even though your nails have been cleaned, there is still a smell of medicine powder. It is the medicine powder that poisoned Shen Liangdi."

Xiao Jinyan's eyes seemed to be covered with frost, and his voice was filled with uncontrollable anger. "Who ordered you to do this?"

Qiu Kui found out that the truth had been revealed, so she had to admit it, "It was my own idea, no one instructed me to do it."

"No one ordered you to do it? How dare you, a little maidservant like you, poison me?" Xiao Jinyan sneered, "I can tell you clearly that poisoning me is a serious crime that will implicate your entire clan. Do you understand?"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Kui gritted his teeth and dared not say a word. Who wouldn't be afraid of implicated all nine generations of his clan?

At this time, the eunuch came in and reported: "Your Highness, the eldest prince is here."

Xiao Jinyan frowned and thought for a moment, "Let him in."
