The maid cried out in pain, but Xuan Yi showed no sympathy. He threw her to the ground, drew his sword, pointed it at her throat, and shouted angrily, "Tell me! Who sent you?"
The maid didn't expect Xuan Yi to appear suddenly. She trembled and turned her eyes slightly, just in time to see Xuan Er and Duan Qingxi flying down from the upstairs.
The maid gritted her teeth and said nothing, wanting to bite her tongue to commit suicide.
But Xuan Er sealed his acupuncture points and dislocated his jaw.
Duan Qingxi walked forward slowly, squatted in front of the maid and picked up the medicine bag that had fallen on the ground.
She put it to her nose and smelled it. Hmm... it was the same smell as the poison she had smelled in the medicinal herbs before.
Xuan Yi and Xuan Er were extremely ashamed and lowered their eyes, saying, "I failed to provide adequate care. Please punish me, young lady!"
Duan Qingxi said, "Forget it. This is someone your prince sent here himself, yet he poisoned me. I don't know if he was targeting your prince or me. This really makes me feel scared. What do you think..."
Looking at them, Duan Qingxi smiled meaningfully, "Do you still want me to help your prince prepare the antidote?"
Although they had not been with Duan Qingxi for a long time, Xuan Yi and Xuan Er could tell that she was angry.
The two did not dare to speak and could only send the person back to the Ninth Prince's Palace overnight.
When Helian Sheng learned about this, he was also furious and had the maid sent to the secret room in the Ninth Prince's Mansion and tortured.
Su He looked at Xuan Yi and Xuan Er nervously and asked, "Miss Duan...did she really say that?"
Xuan nodded, "She's also very angry. She said that the herbs are all contaminated with the powder to some extent. Although the powder won't kill the prince immediately, it will make the poison in the prince's body more and more powerful, making it more difficult to detoxify."
Xuan Er continued, "The young lady also said that we were the only ones who knew about the antidote for the prince. Why is a maid here to cause trouble? Someone on the prince's side must have leaked the news, because no one on her side knows about it."
Xuan Yi continued, "Miss, please remind your Highness that the other party did not intend to kill you. It was most likely a woman who did it. Please ask your Highness to clean up the bad peach blossoms around you to avoid harming her."
Xuan Er added, "The important thing is, if we continue like this, and someone keeps finding fault, then we won't be able to prepare an antidote for the prince in the near future. Even getting a temporary antidote will be difficult!"
Xuan Yi continued, "After all... there's no room for error when refining medicine, otherwise it could cost someone's life!"
The two of them sang the same tune, which made Su He feel annoyed.
He looked at Helian Sheng and said, "Then, Your Majesty, what should we do next..."
Helian Sheng's face had already turned ugly. He was careless and didn't even realize that there was a spy among him.
"Thoroughly investigate the entire palace! Anyone who finds any sign of foul play will be executed!"
"yes!"
Su He continued, "As for Miss Duan..."
"Let her figure it out."
After saying that, Helian Sheng got up and left.
But from the looks of it, he didn't seem to blame Duan Qingxi.
It seems that the master is quite special to Miss Duan.
After Duan Qingxi cleared away the unclean people around him, he asked Xuan Yi to take Qiao Yun over.
Qiao Yun is one of Duan Qingxi's most trusted people. Having her help here is better than having hundreds of servants helping here.
So, after the herbs were prepared, Duan Qingxi began to lock himself in the room to refine the pills.
The term "refining pills" was actually taught to her by Xiaodai.
Although Xiaodai has entered the space bracelet to practice, in order to allow Duan Qingxi to survive better here, Xiaodai left a lot of books for her, all placed in the most visible place in the space bracelet.
