Chapter 20 Because that was her masterpiece
Mu Ze: "..."
The dog can tell, but he can't?
impossible!
Mu Ze was unconvinced and turned to glare fiercely at Ah Huang, who was locked in the dog cage.
Ah Huang whimpered twice in fright and shrank into the corner of the cage.
Qin Ye's words left not only Mu Ze confused, but also Lin Shuyan somewhat bewildered.
What does he mean?
"Your Highness, do you not believe me?"
Lin Shuyan's expression this time showed more genuine grievance. Tears welled up in her eyes as she struggled to hold them back, making her look pitiful.
"We've known each other for over a decade. Doesn't Your Highness know what kind of person I am?"
Qin Ye glanced at her coldly: "I'm talking about Yun Si, why are you crying?"
Lin Shuyan: "..."
Yun Si: "..."
What a scoundrel.
Yun Si looked at him with displeasure, while Lin Shuyan immediately gave Yun Si a subtle, triumphant smile.
Her Highness is still on my side; it seems she still has a chance.
Yun Si had originally brought some delicious food, intending to eat with Qin Ye, but now she didn't want to eat it, and she didn't want to give any to Qin Ye.
"Pastoral chieftain."
She walked over to Mu Ze and said with a smile, "You've been working hard lately, this is specially prepared for you, take it back and make up for it."
After saying that, he shoved it into Mu Ze's hand.
Then he left without looking back.
Qin Ye's breathing suddenly became heavy, and his aura instantly turned cold.
Mu Ze felt like he was holding a hot potato while holding the food box; he didn't know whether to throw it away or not.
"Your Highness, Master Yun must be joking. I know my place. I'll take it to your study right away."
joke.
If he dares to eat this, His Highness will surely kill him.
"Your Highness, Shuyan has also prepared some refreshments, you..."
"I am not hungry."
Before Lin Shuyan could finish speaking, Qin Ye interrupted her: "Shuyan, canceling the wedding was my own decision. It has nothing to do with her. I'm the one who's sorry. Don't worry, I will recognize you as my sworn sister and find you a good marriage so you can have a grand wedding."
After Qin Ye finished speaking, he didn't give Lin Shuyan a chance to refute him and turned back to his study.
Lin Shuyan gripped the food box tightly, a hint of resentment flashing across her face.
Another adopted sister!
In her past life, she compromised.
She married what he called a "good match," but she never had a single good day before she died.
In this life, she will never be a foster sister again.
She wants to be a princess!
I want to be the empress!
Since the open approach isn't working, let's try something underhanded.
Once the deed is done, let's see how he still dares to acknowledge her as his sworn sister.
A cold glint and a sense of certainty flashed in Lin Shuyan's eyes.
On the other side.
When Yun Si returned to Qiwu Garden, she remembered that besides bringing Qin Ye delicious food, she had another purpose in going to see him.
She was so angry she lost her mind.
More than ten days have passed since I wrote the letter to my father.
If her father replied, she should receive it soon.
She was getting very impatient.
There has been no movement from Shen Qian's side.
This time, he remained quite calm and didn't blindly send people to the Marquis's residence.
However, Yun Si always felt that Shen Qian being too quiet was not a good thing.
He must be planning something big.
Therefore, Yun Si was very anxious.
Only by obtaining his father's letter can Shen Qian find out what exactly he is looking for and where it is hidden.
However, she was so caught up in her anger that she forgot about the important matter, and she couldn't bring herself to go back to him right away.
Moreover, Yun Si doesn't want to see him right now.
After all that, in his heart, he still trusted his childhood sweetheart more.
OK.
Then believe her.
"Lansing, call Lu Yu, we're going out this afternoon."
Where to?
"I'll take you to the outskirts of the city for a spring outing."
"real?"
Lansing was incredibly excited when he heard that he was going out of the mansion to play.
They're kept locked up in this grand compound all day long; it's really boring.
"I'll go prepare the things, we'll be leaving now."
"Go."
Half an hour later.
The three of them, master and servants, boarded the carriage and set off with great anticipation.
The carriage headed south of the city.
No sooner had their carriage left than Qin Ye learned of their departure from the manor.
"Your Highness, should we send someone to accompany you?"
He asked in the darkness.
"Need not."
Qin Ye's voice was cold: "The Prince's Mansion is not her home. She can't just go wherever she wants."
Upon hearing An Ye's report that Yun Si had left the manor, Qin Ye casually picked up a book and began to read.
He seemed to be looking at it very seriously and carefully, but as time passed, he didn't turn a single page of the book in his hands.
"Your Highness..."
An Ye called out cautiously, and Qin Ye looked at him sharply. An Ye shrank back and kindly reminded him, "You're holding your book upside down."
"I'm going to the Ministry of War to take a look."
Qin Ye suddenly stood up and walked out of the study.
Dark Night touched his nose and muttered to himself.
Since Master Yun returned to the manor, His Highness's temper has become increasingly unpredictable and volatile.
It was not as good as when Consort Yun was the princess. Although she never gave His Highness a good look, His Highness seemed to have no temper and always tolerated her.
How come now...
I don't understand.
It also affected innocent bystanders.
After Qin Ye left the study, An Ye saw Eunuch De Cai standing at the study door, staring at Qin Ye's departing figure with a strange expression on his face, as if he were deep in thought or investigating.
De Cai was an old servant in the palace. When Qin Ye was granted the title of Prince and established his own residence, the palace arranged for De Cai to help Qin Ye manage the Prince's residence. De Cai did not disappoint, managing the inner quarters of the Prince's residence in an orderly manner.
The servants in the mansion were all trained by him. It wasn't until Qin Ye brought Granny Qian over that Eunuch Decai felt a little relieved and handed over the power to manage the inner quarters to Granny Qian.
He stayed by Qin Ye's side, taking care of Qin Ye's daily life.
As An Ye witnessed this scene, something suddenly flashed through his mind.
He frowned, and a thoughtful look slowly appeared in his eyes.
...
Yun Si's carriage was heading south when, as it passed Anning Street, a familiar voice suddenly rang out: "Quack doctors, you are all quack doctors!"
It was a woman's voice.
Yun Si pushed the car window open a crack and looked in the direction from which the sound came.
In my line of sight, two women dressed in light-colored dresses stood in front of the most famous medical clinic in the capital, seemingly arguing with the doctor inside.
Yun Si recognized the two women at a glance.
One of them is Shen Qian's younger sister, Shen Yu.
The other one is Shen Qian's cousin, He Qingqing.
The two women had their faces covered with veils, but Yun Si was very familiar with their voices and figures, so she could easily recognize them.
"Didn't you say this disease is easy to cure?"
“My mother’s illness has not only not improved after taking your medicine, but it has become more and more serious. Now even the people around her are starting to have the same symptoms. It is because of your misdiagnosis that her condition has been delayed. You bunch of quacks, how dare you call yourselves the best clinic in the whole capital?”
"That's right, it's all your fault for delaying the treatment, causing us all to suffer as well..."
As soon as the two said this, the people who had been standing by watching the commotion scattered instantly.
"Isn't this an infectious disease?"
"They have an infectious disease and they still dare to parade around in public. Everyone should stay away from them or you might get infected."
The onlookers began to criticize them, and faced with the pressure from the crowd, the two eventually couldn't withstand it and slunk away.
"Master, it seems to be Miss Shen who just said that Madam Shen had some illness that was misdiagnosed, which delayed her treatment and has now become very serious, and has also infected the people around her."
Lanxin understood and immediately told Yunsi.
Yun Si nodded indifferently, her expression showing little interest.
Because that was her masterpiece.
Shen's mother didn't have any infectious disease, but rather she was given a slow-acting poison.
Once the poison penetrates her bloodstream, it attacks her lungs, causing difficulty breathing and high fever. In severe cases, it can be transmitted to others through breathing through the mouth and nose, saliva, or even a sneeze.
The poison recorded in the notebook was personally prepared by Yun Si.
How could anyone else possibly unravel this mystery?
This ailment initially resembles a cold, making it easy to misdiagnose.
If they don't take this seriously, it won't be long before the entire Shenfu falls.
certainly.
This poison is easy to cure; Yun Si has already prepared a large quantity of antidote.
If the news gets out, she can control it in time.
However, judging from the situation, the people in the Shen family must have realized that this "disease" is contagious. They didn't want Shen's mother to be forcibly detained by the government in an epidemic area, so they dared not make any noise.
Moreover, countless people in the Shen family mansion have been infected. If this news were to leak out, even with the Shen family's immense power, it would be a very troublesome problem for them.
Their own preoccupation with their own problems would give Qin Ye more time.
“Master.”
Seeing that Yun Si seemed to be lost in thought, Lan Xin and Lu Yu exchanged a glance, a hint of worry flashing across their faces.
Would the master soften his heart again and go to treat Madam Shen's illness?
That's an infectious disease!
"Master, ever since the incident at our Marquis's mansion, apart from Young Master Shen, the Shen family has all changed their tune. You mustn't be so kind as to show mercy..."
"Won't."
Yun Si interrupted Lan Xin, and to put their minds at ease, she deliberately said, "I can't cure that disease, and you need to have the ability to do good deeds."
Hearing her say that, sure enough, the two of them were no longer worried.
The carriage swayed and rocked as it finally arrived at the southern suburbs of the city.
After getting off the carriage, Lanxin and Lu Yu saw rows of low, earthen houses and let out a wail.
Didn't I say I brought them here for a spring outing?
Here, apart from these mud houses, it's all desolate. Where can we go for a spring outing?
"Master, have we gone the wrong way?"
"That's right."
Worried that she wouldn't be able to find it, her third uncle later gave her a topographical map. According to the markings on the map, the Fang family lived here.
Yun Si memorized the map and followed the route in her memory, walking into the dirt road in the middle of the rows of earthen houses.
This place doesn't look like it's inhabited.
Walking to the center of the house, I felt a cool, shady atmosphere.
There was no warmth or liveliness about it.
We walked all the way to the end of the mud houses, but still didn't see a single person.
Is anyone there?
Lan Xin and Lu Yu huddled fearfully beside Yun Si, calling out to the earthen houses on either side, "Excuse me, is anyone here?"
I called out several times, but there was still no response.
Suddenly, a dark figure darted past them.
"who?"
