Jiang Meiyu was extremely anxious and ran straight to the room in a hurry.
As soon as she entered the house, she could no longer suppress the surging emotions in her heart.
Tears poured down like a flood that broke through the dam, like a string of pearls that had broken off the string, rolling down from the eyes continuously.
Her heart felt as if it were being pricked by thousands of tiny needles, filled with endless self-blame and regret.
I just felt that it was because of my own incompetence that I failed to protect my mother.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Jiang Meiyu took out a long-treasured detoxification pill from her bosom with trembling hands.
Carefully stuffed it into Mrs. Jiang's bloodless lips.
She held her mother's cold hand tightly and whispered softly, "Don't worry, mother! Yu'er will definitely cure you even if it means risking everything."
Just then, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door, and then the door was gently pushed open.
It turned out that Keqing came in quietly with Lucao.
As soon as Lu Cao saw Jiang Meiyu, he fell to his knees with a plop.
She said with a slightly tearful voice, "Princess, it was the Second Young Lady who poisoned me! But ever since she poisoned me, she no longer allows me to serve you closely, so I really don't know what kind of poison she used."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Meiyu frowned tightly, and a sharp look flashed in her eyes.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
Then, with a gloomy expression, she instructed Lu Cao, "Lu Cao, pretend you know nothing for now and continue to act as usual. Keep a close eye on the Second Young Lady's movements. If you spot her leaving the mansion, follow her immediately. I will send someone to pick you up. This time, we must follow the clues and uncover the person behind this poison production. Humph! This time, I will make her pay a more painful price for her crimes!"
When Jiang Meilian learned that Jiang Meiyu had returned, she snorted coldly and said, "Humph, this bitch is really lucky. But now that she's back, I naturally can't let her go easily. I have to carefully prepare a generous gift for her, otherwise wouldn't all my painstaking research over such a long time be wasted? Haha... haha!"
As Jiang Meilian's arrogant laughter rang out, the whole house was suddenly filled with a creepy and terrifying atmosphere, as if gusts of cold wind were blowing.
On the other hand, after careful consideration, Jiang Meiyu finally decided to stay in the Jiang Mansion temporarily.
Because she had to wait until her mother woke up before she could leave, so the coronation ceremony of Prince Gong had to be postponed for some time.
Fortunately, Prince Gong is deeply in love with Jiang Meiyu and obeys her every word.
She is always the first priority in everything, and everything is arranged in an orderly and proper manner.
Early that morning, Jiang Meilian slowly and leisurely finished her delicious breakfast.
Then she waved her hand gently, signaling all the servants to leave, and carefully closed the door.
When she was the only one left in the room, Jiang Meilian began to dress up carefully.
She first took out a light and misty white gauze dress from the depths of the wardrobe.
She put it on carefully and carefully adjusted the brim of the tulle hat on her head.
Make sure no one else can see her ruined face.
After everything was ready, Jiang Meilian hurriedly left the room, as if she was afraid of being discovered.
Lu Cao, who had been guarding outside the door, saw her young lady in such a hurry and followed her without hesitation.
Jiang Meiyu had already secretly arranged a well-trained undercover agent to follow Lu Cao closely so as to keep track of their movements at any time.
Along the way, Jiang Meilian chose to walk on those paths with few people, turning left and right, as if she was walking in a maze.
Finally, she stopped in front of the gate of a slightly remote courtyard.
The courtyard is surrounded by green trees and is isolated from the outside world, making it particularly quiet and mysterious.
Jiang Meilian first looked around vigilantly, and after making sure that there was no one around, she gently pushed open the gate and slipped in.
As soon as I walked in, I heard a familiar voice: "Lian'er, you're finally here. I haven't seen you for so long. I really missed you."
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man in a gray Taoist robe.
When he saw Jiang Meilian coming in, a smile immediately appeared on his face and he walked quickly towards her.
The two hugged each other as if they had met too late, whispering in each other's ears for a long time before reluctantly parting.
Jiang Meilian couldn't wait to ask, "What about the poison we researched together last time? Have you made any progress?"
"It's still here. We've been waiting for you to come and check it out." The Taoist priest said as he led Jiang Meilian into the inner room.
Entering the inner room, Jiang Meilian saw several bottles and jars placed on a table, among which a small porcelain bottle was particularly eye-catching.
The Taoist pointed to the small porcelain bottle and said, "This is it. After many tests and improvements, the toxicity has been greatly enhanced."
Jiang Meilian picked up the small porcelain bottle, looked at it for a moment, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.
He showed a cruel smile and said, "Very good, wrap it up for me later. I will be very useful to you."
The Taoist priest frowned when he saw this.
He advised worriedly, "Lian'er, this medicine is not only poisonous but also extremely corrosive. If someone accidentally gets exposed to it, their internal organs will quickly rot, and they will die in a horrific and painful way. You must be extremely careful when using it, and don't be careless!"
However, Jiang Meilian was not willing to listen to these advices.
He interrupted impatiently, "I know, I know, stop nagging! Just wrap it up for me."
