Before Princess He Ning could finish her words, the prince had already stuffed the medicine into Yu Rou's mouth and poked the acupuncture points on her body with his index and middle fingers.
After doing all this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to the guards with a gloomy face, "Seal the teahouse and don't allow anyone to enter or leave. Send my order to call the government officials here."
The guard immediately took out a whistle and blew it. In less than a moment, dozens of guards in black rushed into the teahouse.
The prince picked up the unconscious Yu Rou and was about to leave when he paused, looked back at the prince, and said coldly, "Prince, this is your place. I leave it to you."
Princess Hening stared at the prince with wide eyes, an expression of disbelief.
"He Ning, let's go."
The prince watched Yu Rou being taken away with a sullen face, and coldly opened the door to reveal Che Li's handsome face. He narrowed his eyes, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and kicked the screen open.
The teahouse was in chaos. The scene of Yu Rou unconscious and being taken away by the prince made everyone panic. In addition, the sudden appearance of the prince kicked down the screen, and many noble ladies screamed.
Yu Ting was so scared that she almost fainted and didn't know what had happened. Fortunately, Princess He Ning remembered her and asked the guards to tell Yu Ting before leaving that Yu Rou had been brought to the palace for medical treatment.
…
At this time, Yu Rou was lying unconscious in Princess Hening's Liufang Palace.
A group of people gathered around the bed. After the imperial physician felt her pulse, the prince asked, "How is she?"
"Reporting to His Highness, this lady is out of danger and will wake up in half an hour."
"What kind of poison did she take?"
"This poison comes from the Western Regions. It's not fatal, but it will cause unbearable pain and even affect the intelligence of the victim. They may also develop small dark yellow spots."
After hearing this, the prince remained silent for a long time, and the air became oppressive and cold.
Cold sweat broke out on the imperial physician's forehead, and he couldn't help but want to kneel down. He continued, "Fortunately, she took the detoxification pill in time, so it won't affect her body. However, there is still some residual toxicity. I will prescribe a few doses of medicine for her. She will be cured after taking it for half a month."
Prince: "Go down."
The imperial physician breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took his leave.
Princess Hening was called over by the Queen to inquire about the situation. Only a few palace maids were left in the room.
The prince said: "All of you get out."
The palace maids were already frightened by the prince's low mood and were eager to leave. Now, after receiving the prince's order, they trotted out one by one.
The prince stood beside the bed, looking down at Yu Rou sleeping with an unfathomable expression.
Yu Rou's face was still pale and she looked very weak.
The prince slowly sat down beside the bed and put Yu Rou's hand into the quilt. Yu Rou frowned and her eyelashes trembled. The prince's expression paused, his arms stiffened, and he seemed to be nervous.
Only when he realized that Yu Rou was not awake did he slowly pull his hand back.
Unexpectedly, just as he let go of Yu Rou's hand, he heard Yu Rou whisper, "Your Highness."
The prince was stunned for a moment, then immediately stood up, took a step back, looked away, and coughed twice.
But he waited for a while and heard no more sound, so he looked at Yu Rou again.
Yu Rou closed her eyes tightly and moved her lips slightly.
It turns out that he was just talking in his sleep.
The prince looked a little unnatural.
Did she dream about me?
The prince looked at Yu Rou curiously, hoping to hear a few more words of sleep talk from her.
Yu Rou was indeed dreaming at this time, but what she dreamed was completely different from what the prince imagined.
She dreamed that she had been completely cleansed, and the prince fell deeply in love with her again and could not pull himself out of it.
But she suddenly broke off the engagement on their wedding day, accusing the prince of being too cold and not treating her well.
The prince held her hand and said that he knew he was wrong and asked her not to leave him.
She said to him, as if it was too late: "Your Highness, please let me go."
After saying that, Yu Rou raised the corners of her mouth and smiled.
But the prince only heard her shout "Your Highness, let me go", and Yu Rou did not say anything.
When the prince saw Yu Rou smiling and calling his name again, he thought that Yu Rou was smiling so happily because she had dreamed of him.
He pursed his lips unconsciously, but his eyes curved into a beautiful arc. He hesitantly reached into the quilt and held Yu Rou's hand.
The smooth skin made his heart flutter.
"Royal brother!" Princess Hening's voice suddenly came from outside.
The prince suddenly pulled his hand away and stood up again.
Princess He Ning just happened to walk in and saw the prince's blushing face. She asked in confusion, "Royal brother, what's wrong with you? You look weird."
"I'm fine." The prince covered up.
"That's not right. Did you do something secretly just now? You are the only one in the room." Princess He Ning circled around the prince twice.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Okay, I was just kidding. I just came back from my mother's place." Princess He Ning walked to the table, picked up the kettle, poured a glass of water and took a sip. "I was so thirsty that I rushed back in a hurry. How is Madam Yu?"
"It's okay now." The prince glanced at Yu Rou, but quickly looked away.
Princess He Ning finished her tea and said with emotion, "Madam Yu studied tea making because my brother loves tea. And my brother was willing to use the Bai Huan Dan to save her. The relationship between you two is truly enviable. I wanted to break you up before, but now it seems that I didn't."
"She learned tea art for me?" the prince asked in surprise.
"Yes, the lady of the Yu family is really infatuated with my brother. If it were me, I would not be able to hold on." Princess He Ning said
The prince thought to himself: How is this possible? She must have deliberately lied to He Ning, thinking that I would believe her. I am not that stupid.
System: "The whitewashing index increased by ten points..."
"I hope Madam Yu wakes up soon so I can tell her how much you care about her."
The prince coughed and said, "What's there to tell? You are not allowed to say it."
"Why? Tell her so she'll be touched."
"That's not necessary."
The prince thought to himself: I don’t need her to be moved. I saved her just...just on impulse.
System: "Master, the whitewashing value has increased by another 15 points... Now the whitewashing value has reached 30."
The author has something to say: Prince: She must be lying to me, that’s why I’m not happy, nor am I moved
Fish: Listen, it's the sound of clapping. Smell, does it smell good?
