Fan Fen shook her head speechlessly: "Your Highness, you should just read your book!"

He changed the subject and looked at him very seriously, saying, "We need to resolve things here as soon as possible. Lingqi needs you too."

Ye Lisheng frowned, somewhat displeased. He was aware of Su Xiang and the others' secret plot, but he couldn't touch them yet.

"I understand!"

"Rest assured, I will get everyone back on track within a month."

Now all he's thinking about is waiting for things to settle down so he can marry me and make me his queen.

But things didn't go as planned...

...

"I know where the Lord of Lanyi is!"

Nangong Liuli's face didn't seem to show much emotion, as if it had nothing to do with him.

The frogs on the lakeshore croaked incessantly, their calls rising and falling, and the moon's silhouette was reflected in the water.

The trees rustled loudly in the wind, sounding almost like they were roaring.

Everyone had rushed to the temple fair, so there were very few people on this road. Walking here alone with my lantern was a little eerie.

Suppressing her fear, she mustered her courage and walked deeper into the forest, calling his name as she went.

"Ye Lisheng!"

"Ye Lisheng, are you there?"

Suddenly, a figure darted swiftly into the depths of the woods.

"Ye Lisheng!"

I chased after him, shouting as I went, when suddenly a man in black appeared in front of me.

"Ye Lisheng, what are you doing?"

"Did you prepare some kind of surprise for me?"

The man turned around, and I was so startled that I fell flat on my backside.

"Who...who are you?"

A strange fragrance lingered in the air, and suddenly, feeling utterly weak, I collapsed to the ground, unable to muster any strength, and my consciousness began to fade.

A piercing pain shot through my chest as I saw the man plunge a short dagger into it, drawing out the blood.

My vision grew increasingly blurry, and as I drifted into unconsciousness, a voice rang in my ear: "Don't be afraid, it's just a little bit of blood!"

Ye Lisheng raised his long whip to urge the horse on, startling the people on the street who scattered in all directions.

Suddenly, a sharp, needle-like pain shot through my chest, and a voice echoed in my mind: "September, save the dying!"

"Master, why don't you just take her back!"

"Now is not the time!"

"I'm sure Ye Lisheng's people are coming soon, let's go!"

Mo Sheng glanced at him with pity, silently praying that Ye Lisheng would arrive soon.

After they left, Murong Kui appeared, stroking a face that looked exactly like her own.

"Your existence has already threatened my position in Brother Ye's heart!"

Then his face contorted into a ferocious expression: "Don't blame me!"

I saw her take a pill from the small jade bottle and feed it to me.

The sound of horses' hooves echoed in the distance, and Murong Kui departed with satisfaction.

Shao Yuqing, riding a white horse, saw a person lying in the distance.

He approached and was astonished: "Miss Okra!"

Suddenly, everything became bright; several torches illuminated the night, making it feel like daytime.

Then Ye Lisheng arrived with his guards.

"Smack!"

Shao Yuqing was sent flying to the ground by Ye Lisheng's palm strike, her bright red blood like a blooming, alluring flower, piercing Ye Lisheng's heart.

He grabbed Yu Shaoqing by the collar, the veins on his forehead bulging, showing just how angry he was: "You bastard!"

"Arrest him, take him back to the manor, and torture him severely."

As dawn broke, the Prince of Anyang's residence was already in complete chaos.

Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and the bleeding from the chest had been stopped. Ye Lisheng's hands were stained red with blood, and he was trembling as he gripped my hand tightly.

This was the first time he had felt death so close to him.

"Girl, you can't get hurt!"

"Imperial Physician Wang has arrived!"

The imperial physician Wang was also startled by the scene, but quickly came to his senses.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

"Stop with your nonsense and come for treatment right now!"

Upon hearing the news, Ling Shuang came with Imperial Physician Wang.

"I hope Sister Murong is alright!" she prayed silently.

Wang Qiaochuan handed the jade bottle to Murong Kui: "Here's the blood you wanted!"

"Thank you, Imperial Preceptor!"

Suddenly, Wang Qiaochuan's face turned terrifying. He grabbed her neck and said viciously, "Who gave you the right to drug her without my permission!"

Murong Kui said innocently, "What do you mean by this? How could Murong do such a thing!"

A crisp "snap!" echoed throughout the entire Celestial Master's Mansion.

Five handprints immediately appeared on Murong Kui's face, making her already terrifying appearance even more horrifying.

"Give me the antidote!"

"No!"

Don't test my patience!

"That doesn't allow the Taoist priest to make false accusations."

After she left, the spider lilies in front of the Forgotten Bridge River suddenly became somewhat dim.

"Master, what should we do?"

"It's alright! I will definitely make her vomit up the antidote."

Half an incense stick's time had passed, and the bleeding had long since stopped, but Imperial Physician Wang still frowned, using silver needles and taking pulses.

"How is Imperial Physician Wang?"

Looking at my pale face, Ye Lisheng felt powerless for the first time, utterly helpless in the face of this situation.

"Although Miss Murong is wounded in the heart, the person who injured her had no intention of taking her life; she has simply lost too much blood! She just needs some rest and recuperation."

Hearing him say that, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"only!"

As soon as he spoke, Ye Lisheng's heart jumped again.

"But what happened?"

"Miss Murong has been poisoned! I cannot determine what kind of poison it is at the moment!"

"Ling Ran! Go and fetch all the doctors in the city. I'm going to the prison."
