Shen Aojun knew clearly who the person she was talking about was, and gradually she felt at ease, but she never dared to think about assassinating Rong Zhen.
At this moment, a large number of imperial guards rushed in, saying that they wanted to arrest Shen Aojun, because she had assassinated His Royal Highness Prince Zhao in public and her crime was punishable by death. Shu'er came to the emperor and begged him to show mercy.
"Uncle, Aunt Aojun, she definitely didn't do it on purpose." Shu'er looked at the emperor's impatient face and tried her best to plead for Shen Aojun in front of him, but he was dismissive.
"After Rong Zhen gets better, you can plead for her."
"But……"
"Okay, Shu'er, you are the princess of a county after all. You don't have to worry about this matter. You should also be careful to see if there are any people around you who have bad intentions."
The emperor reminded her and said, "Okay, I am very tired after reviewing the memorials. I want to go back to my bedroom to rest. If you have nothing to do, don't come to see me."
Seeing the emperor walk away resolutely, Shu'er frowned and sighed. Shen Aojun was temporarily imprisoned. Shu'er came to the cell to visit her and said to her, "Aunt Aojun, think about it carefully. Don't you remember anything after entering the palace?"
"I really can't remember anything. All I have in my mind is the prince. How could I possibly harm the prince? There must be some misunderstanding. Shu'er, you must help me..." Shen Aojun nervously held her hand. Only Shu'er could give her justice. Shu'er took a deep breath and comforted her: "Aunt Aojun, don't be so nervous. I believe you will not harm the prince. Someone must have cast a witchcraft on you."
"Witchcraft..." Shen Aojun suddenly realized that the inexplicable things must be related to this witchcraft, but she didn't expect who was so cruel...
"You are here now. I have bribed the jailer. They will not embarrass you for the time being. As for Ah Xin, I will contact her. She will definitely save the prince." Shu'er believed that Gu Yunru must have a way to save the prince. Shen Aojun's eyes suddenly became lonely. He looked at Shu'er with a sad face and said, "Shu'er, in fact, you already knew that she was Gu Yunru, right?"
"Aunt Aojun..." Shu'er didn't expect that she had begun to understand Ashin's true identity.
"So even the prince knew it from the beginning, but I have been deceiving myself the whole time, and naively thought that the prince would have some mercy on me..."
Shen Aojun was in great pain, thinking that she was the stupidest person in the world. She still foolishly believed in the prince, but was still missing her deceased wife.
"Aunt Aojun, Princess Zhao didn't tell you this because she was afraid you wouldn't be able to bear the blow. She also tried to find a chance to tell you, but she never found the chance. Please don't misunderstand."
"What misunderstanding? She just wanted to see my miserable end." Shen Aojun smiled bitterly, took a deep breath, and took Shu'er's hand and said, "Shu'er, I'm really happy that you can come back. If His Highness gets better, you must send someone to tell me, understand?"
"Don't worry, I will definitely send someone to tell you."
After Shu'er left the prison, she hurried to the palace. Seeing Gu Yunru sleeping on the edge of the bed, she accidentally moved and almost fell down.
"Ah Xin..." Shu Er knew that her current identity had not yet been made public, so she called her Ah Xin. Gu Yunru slowly opened her eyes when she heard the voice, but she didn't expect that it was already daybreak.
"The daybreak comes so quickly that I haven't reacted yet." Gu Yunru smiled bitterly and watched Rong Zhen's reaction. Unexpectedly, his face had turned dark purple.
"A Zhao...A Zhao!" Gu Yunru didn't know what was happening to Xiaobai inside his body, but his reaction was completely different from what she expected.
"What happened to the prince? Why did it expand so much?" Shu'er was dumbfounded as she watched from the side. It was as if he had been soaked in water for several days and nights. His skin was swollen and he seemed to have an inexplicable sense of panic.
"Xiaobai Xiaobai..." Gu Yunru originally wanted to use Xiaobai's favorite food to summon it back, but found out that Xiaobai was already dead.
"The Gu seems to be gone, so..." Shu'er knew something about Gu. If the Gu did not save the person, then the Gu would explode inside the body and die. It would then be excreted from the human body along with the excrement. However, this process was very slow and would take two months.
Gu Yunru's eyes couldn't help but turn red when she saw Xiaobai's sudden heroic sacrifice. This was the little white worm that had been with her for a long time.
However, the most crucial thing is to eliminate the toxins in Rong Zhen's body so that his body can return to its normal size.
After working for about half an incense stick of time, Gu Yunru finally came to the steps at the door with a tired look on his face and sat down. He looked much more haggard.
"When do you plan to reveal your identity to everyone?" Shu'er, who was sitting next to her, asked curiously, patting her aching back.
"Why do all of you keep asking me this question? But I really... haven't thought about it yet." Gu Yunru pulled the corners of her mouth awkwardly. If the time comes, she will definitely explain the reason.
But now doesn't seem to be a good time.

"By the way, the emperor has ordered Aunt Aojun to be imprisoned. This matter is indeed very strange. I believe she must have been bewitched by someone, so she suddenly assassinated the prince."
Shu'er looked at her with certainty, hoping that she would not be misled by appearances.
"I understand. I thought about it for a long time when I was guarding A Zhao just now. How could Ao Jun bear to take action if he likes him so much? So there is only one answer." Gu Yunru pursed her lips, tears welling up in her eyes.
"There seems to be some movement inside." Shu'er had the most sensitive ears and nose. After hearing the movement, the two looked at each other and rushed into the hall, only to see Rong Zhen vomiting non-stop, all of which were some white sticky substances.
"A Zhao! How are you? Are you okay?" Gu Yunru knelt beside the bed, supporting his waist and back. There was a dark bruise under his eye socket, and he looked as if all his energy had been sucked away.
"Yun Ru..." Rong Zhen's size has returned to its original state. He has woken up and vomited out everything that could not be excreted. Presumably, his situation has improved.
"I'm here." Gu Yunru held him in her arms and let him lean on her shoulder in a comfortable position.
Seeing the two of them reluctant to part, Shu'er quietly left to give them some space. As soon as she turned around, she saw the sneaky little mouse holding a medicine jar in his hand.
