Ni Yueshan responded, "You're not feeling well right now, so why don't you worry about this?"
Miao Yuan coughed lightly twice, feeling a little tired. Ni Yueshan asked the servant beside her, "What did the imperial physician say?"
"The imperial physician said that Madam is too weak and needs a long period of rest and nourishment. However, the root of the disease cannot be eliminated. You must maintain a positive attitude!"
Ni Yueshan frowned, and Miao Yuan coughed and said, "It's okay, I'm just still sick."
She then asked anxiously, "How's your investigation going?"
"Don't worry about these things, mother. I have my own way to find out the real culprit. But was the snake targeting you, mother, or Miss Xiao?"
Although Miao Yuan was tired, she still forced herself to stay alert. She frowned and responded, "Is it directed at me?"
I remember that Xiao Chuer was fine at that time and her reaction was quicker than hers. She pushed her away, so the snake naturally bit Xiao Chuer.
Miao Yuan asked curiously, "Is this related to the case?"
She was pale and looked sick, her eyes were sunken, and she was coughing. Her body was trembling slightly, as if she would faint at any moment.
Ni Yueshan felt distressed and said, "Mom, don't worry about it. I'll take care of it!"
Ni Yueshan walked forward and helped Miao Yuan to lie down quickly. Miao Yuan said doubtfully, "The other party knew that I was not the only one in the tent, but still stubbornly released the snake. This is a trick, you have to be careful!"
Miao Yuan's face was filled with worry. Ni Yueshan sighed helplessly, "Okay, I know how to find the real culprit. Just rest assured and take care of yourself!"
After comforting Miao Yuan to lie down, Ni Yueshan looked at the maid beside the bed with a serious look: "From now on, you are not allowed to mention anything in front of my mother that is not conducive to her recovery, otherwise this princess will definitely punish you!"
Ni Yueshan reminded him coldly, without any intention of joking.
Afterwards, Ni Yueshan walked away, breathing a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, my life was saved."
Qingdie asked hesitantly, "Madam, you're right. The murderer clearly knew that the venomous snake wouldn't hurt you, but he still insisted on releasing it. How strange!"
Moreover, the poisonous snakes used to poison those five people did not change species. What was the purpose? Was he afraid that others would not know that the poisonous snakes were released by the same murderer?
Ni Yueshan said solemnly, "Qingdie, let's not think about this for now. Let's go and listen to what other places are doing with snake experiments!"
There were a lot of servants and guards, so the inspection was slow. After Ni Yueshan and Qingdie arrived, they were still testing the waters. These people were all servants, so they knew they had no right to refuse and cooperated obediently.
Seeing Ni Yueshan and Qingdie coming, a guard stepped forward and took the initiative to report: "Greetings to the Crown Princess."
"Did anyone reach in and cause the snake to react?"
The guard shook his head with regret. Ni Yueshan said helplessly, "Then let's continue. We must investigate everyone!"
Someone was whispering about what was in the black cage. Ni Yueshan didn't get angry when he heard it, but took the initiative to respond: "It's a snake, a venomous snake! The kind that has no solution!"
Ni Yueshan's words shocked everyone. The few people who remained did not reach in and could not help but feel scared.
Ni Yueshan smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. Everyone here has tried it, and everything is fine, right?"
Ni Yueshan looked at the guard holding the black cage and said, "Take off the black hood and let everyone see the snake inside!"
The guards obediently removed the black hood. When they saw clearly that there was indeed a venomous snake coiling inside, some people trembled with fear. Ni Yueshan ordered: "Continue."
The remaining person had a frightened expression and slowly reached his hand in. The snake didn't seem to have any interest and continued to coil. The person breathed a sigh of relief.
Then the next one.
Ni Yueshan yawned sleepily as this continued. Qingdie beside her said, "Crown Princess, why don't you let me guard here? If I get any clues, I'll let you know."
Ni Yueshan shook his head and continued to wait.
Until finally, someone screamed and pulled his hand back, and the snake bit the other person's finger, and everyone present looked over.
Ni Yueshan became excited: "Catch him!"
The man was captured, but he struggled unwillingly, saying, "Why are you arresting me? What have I done wrong? If it's a venomous snake, there's no reason not to bite!"
He struggled desperately and resisted. The guards took him down. Ni Yueshan was in no hurry to leave. He just said, "We've tried everything else!"
Only after the final result came out did Ni Yueshan go to meet that person.
Seeing Ni Yueshan, the other party was very excited: "Crown Princess, I am innocent. I did nothing! That venomous snake is a beast. If it wants to bite, it will bite. Isn't it too hasty and unfair to test the real culprit like this? Who knows, if you reach out your hand, the venomous snake might bite you!"
Ni Yueshan looked at him calmly and asked, "Aren't you surprised that you can still speak? Why aren't you dead?"
The other party was obviously stunned. Ni Yueshan smiled and said, "Because the venomous snake's teeth have been pulled out!"
The other party still didn't understand what Ni Yueshan meant. He frowned, a hint of panic in his expression, "Crown Princess, I am truly wronged. What does it mean that a venomous snake bit me?"
Despite his desperate pleas, Ni Yueshan waited quietly. A guard approached and reported, "We've found out everything. This person was brought here by the Prime Minister's eldest son. However, the young master left and never returned... This person has also remained at the hunting grounds."
