Fifteen minutes later, Bai Zhiyue opened the door with sweat on her face. The antidote had taken effect, but this period of time had also consumed a lot of energy. She felt a little exhausted both mentally and physically.
"Mom, I prepared some energy recovery potion for you, drink it first."
"Um"
After drinking it, I felt better.
"We can't stay here long. We need to get back to the main hall after we've cleaned up."
"good"
Doudou helped to get a comb and a face towel, tidied her hair up simply, and put the ornaments on her head back in place.
"No problem, let's go."
The two came out of the space, observed that there was no one around, and hurried back.
They did not take the same route they came from, but instead went back via another more crowded route.
At this time, people in the hall were still drinking and listening to music. The queen had already gone back because she was not feeling well.
"Duke, Young Marquis, you are finally back."
Qinglian was waiting here anxiously. In fact, the time was not long, only half an hour, but she felt that every time she entered the palace was like entering a dragon's den or a tiger's lair. She felt scared and worried when her master was not around.
"Well, Doudou was a little stuffy just now. I took him out for some fresh air and brought him some hot tea and warm water!"
Qinglian heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that her master was doing well.
"Okay, Master, I'll feed the young marquis. You can drink some hot tea to warm yourself up first. It will be over soon."
Bai Zhiyue felt better after drinking three cups of tea in a row. The main reason was that she had sweated a lot just now and her clothes were all wet. She felt a little cold after leaving the space, so she felt better after drinking a few cups of hot tea.
Fortunately, I had a cotton coat on the outside so I couldn’t see the wet clothes inside.
At this time, Princess Rui also felt that something was wrong as her daughter had not returned for such a long time. The maid she brought with her was also missing and no one knew where she had gone. She had no choice but to send her maid out to inquire.
The maidservant found the two dead maids beside the princess halfway through her search. She screamed in fear. There happened to be a team of patrolling guards not far away, and they were called over by the shouting.
"Who?"
"Princess~Princess~"
The guards went forward to check the body, and after finding out that it was the princess's maid, they immediately ordered a search and reported it to the emperor.
The two maids died tragically, and it was obvious that they were not the work of ordinary people. If the killer intended to assassinate the emperor, he must be well prepared.
The Yuwei also got involved and soon found Jiayang and Chang Lingfeng. The situation inside was too messy, so they didn't dare to go in and investigate further. They hurriedly sent people to notify the two families and the emperor.
When Princess Rui heard from the servants that her daughter was missing and her two maids were dead, she was paralyzed with fear.
"Your Majesty, please send someone to search quickly and save my daughter."
"Don't worry, Aunt Wang. The palace won't be open to the public until the appointed time today. The thief won't be able to escape and we will definitely find him."
King Rui took a team of people with him to look for him in person.
"Don't panic, my lords. There are guards outside the palace. They will escort you out of the palace once they catch the thief."
The emperor still suspected that there might be some rebellious people among his ministers. Of course, he would not let them go at will. He had to wait for the result of the matter.
Everyone in the hall was terrified and worried that another bloody incident would occur. No one dared to go out at this time.
"Mother, I finally found those two maids!"
"Well, if we go and look for Princess Jiayang now, I wonder if she's still breathing. But I do hope she is. I'm also trying to figure out where she got this medicine. It's surprisingly similar to the one the lab used on me."
"Once we find out, we must first destroy the medicine and kill the person who can make it."
"I certainly can't keep a threat like this alive."
At this time, the emperor received another report from the Yuwei, saying that the person had been found, but the situation was very bad.
After hearing the inside story, the emperor's face darkened. Regardless of what the princess did, how could he, the emperor, save his face if she played such a trick in his own palace?
If they dare to do this, what protection will there be in the harem? He will be in trouble. He can't help but think of the matter of Concubine Wan.
He gritted his teeth in hatred. How could the son of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites have such courage?
He summoned Prince Rui and his wife, and the Guanglu Temple Minister and his wife to a side hall, and asked someone to bring Chang Lingfeng in, as he wanted to interrogate them in person.
As for the princess, her condition was really not good, so she asked the imperial physician to treat her first.
When Chang Lingfeng was discovered by Yu Wei, he was still trying to vent his anger. It is conceivable how severe the torture would be with that kind of medicine and the power stimulated.
Jiayang was no longer able to struggle at this time. He was like a rag doll, with a large area of his body soaked with blood.
Seeing Yu Wei appear, her eyes lit up for a moment, but then dimmed again. What if someone came to rescue her? Could she still survive? Even if she survived, how would she face it?
At this time, he thought of Bai again. He didn't know what happened to the medicine. Maybe it had killed many people, so he sent out the Yuwei.
He was still concerned about whether Bai Zhiyue had gotten into trouble until his death. He was really persistent.
Then I completely passed out
Prince Rui and his wife had already heard the general story from Yuwei. Chang Siqing was kicked several times by Prince Rui and fell to the ground pretending to be dead. Princess Rui was more direct and went up to grab Madam Chang and scratched and clawed her.
"I'll tear you, the good son you raised, apart and chop him up to feed the dogs. Damn it, give me back my good daughter, my poor daughter!"
The imperial physician was still giving emergency treatment, saying only that it was dangerous, but she didn't dare to go and see him.
"Princess, Your Majesty, Ling Feng would never do such a thing. Even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to do it! Besides, he is so weak that he can't even tie a chicken. How could he possibly kill someone?"
"Your Majesty, please investigate. He must have been framed!"
"What a bullshit frame-up! My daughter was murdered by him. The Emperor's guards saw it with their own eyes. How could it be false?"
