Helian Wushuang also came back to his senses. He looked at Duan Qingxi for a long time before walking forward.
"Does Princess Yunle feel better?"
Duan Qingxi smiled politely and said, "Much better. Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern."
Helian Wushuang said gently, "Actually, Princess, there's no need to be so polite. Just call me Wushuang."
"This... this seems to be against etiquette."
Although he was surprised by the handsome man in white's attitude towards the prince, Duan Qingxi still understood the difference between the monarch and his subjects.
A hint of disappointment flashed across Helian Wushuang's eyes, and he said, "Since the princess doesn't want to, then forget it."
"Forehead……"
Just then, the sound of eunuchs saluting was heard outside.
"Greetings, Ninth Prince!"
As soon as the voice fell, Helian Sheng walked in.
When he saw Helian Wushuang, Helian Sheng was a little surprised, and then asked: "Why is my royal brother here?"
Helian Wushuang curled his lips helplessly and said, "Of course I came here to investigate the poisoning of my mother. I thought Princess Yunle was also here, so I came to take a look."
After a pause, he looked at Duan Qingxi and said, "Since the princess is feeling much better, I will not bother you any more."
After Duan Qingxi saluted him, Helian Wushuang left.
Helian Sheng didn't say anything else. He just waited until Helian Wushuang left, then waved his hand and asked all the palace people to leave.
"How are you now?"
Duan Qingxi wanted to roll her eyes when she saw him, "Very good!"
After sitting down, she asked again: "How is the queen now?"
"I've woken up, but after what happened, I'm not in the best shape I could be."
Duan Qingxi said, "The Queen has been poisoned, and this poison is extremely strong. If it takes effect, it will be fatal. It is a blessing that the Queen is still safe and sound."
Helian Sheng sat down beside her and asked, "Can the Queen Mother recover? Has the poison in her body been completely eliminated?"
Duan Qingxi shook her head and said, "There's still some residual poison in the Queen's body. It's not easy to remove this kind of thing, but with regular medicinal baths and acupuncture treatments, I believe she will slowly recover."
After a pause, she looked at Helian Sheng and said, "Once the celebration banquet is over, you will ask the emperor to find an excuse to bring me to the palace to stay. Under the pretext of accompanying the queen, I will secretly detoxify her and see if I can find the person who poisoned her."
"good."
Then, the man looked at her again and said, "I will remember your kindness. Later... I will repay you."
Duan Qingxi glanced at him but said nothing more.
After a while, she continued, "It's nothing. Just respect me more in the future and stop taking advantage of me..."
Before he could finish his words, the man suddenly stood up and left.
Duan Qingxi: ...
Before leaving the palace, Duan Qingxi went to check the Queen's pulse. Seeing that she was fine, he felt relieved.
Because he was not sure whether Helian Sheng had come to see the queen, Duan Qingxi repeated his plan to the emperor and the queen.
The queen was deeply moved by this and kept holding her hand and thanking her repeatedly.
Finally, the emperor asked Eunuch Gao to send Duan Qingxi back personally, and he also brought a copy of the imperial edict.
The sedan chair left the Queen's palace, and Eunuch Gao brought people to personally escort the person out of the palace.
Duan Qingxi felt that the sedan chair was very uncomfortable, but it was difficult to refuse the emperor's kindness, so he had to lift the curtain to look at the scenery outside to divert his attention.
Unexpectedly, he saw a palace maid in a water-green skirt standing somewhere stealthily, seemingly observing the queen's bedroom.
He looked very unfamiliar and didn't look like anyone from the Queen's palace.
