Lin Xihe's first thought was that Ji Zhuo was still here, and whether Chu Yunni would try to kill herself again because of this.
Ji Zhuo immediately interrupted her: "Are you hungry? There's bird's nest porridge in the kitchen. Ling Shuang, go and serve it."
"yes."
Ling Shuang accepted the order and left. As the night grew colder, she thoughtfully closed the door behind her.
Lin Xihe sighed softly. Having just gone through this ordeal, she was eager to know the current situation.
"What's wrong with me? Dr. Tao said I'm poisoned."
"The person who poisoned Meng Wuyou in the Western Regions is truly wicked. Without the antidote, you will remain in a semi-conscious state until..." Ji Zhuo did not want to tell Lin Xihe so bluntly, but the current grim situation required everyone to be cautious, and Lin Xihe was no exception.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xihe felt a surge of fear and quickly asked, "Have you found out who poisoned him?"
"We don't know yet. We've investigated everything in the manor. When you saw Jiang Huairou today, did you notice anything unusual?" Ji Zhuo asked Lin Xihe earnestly, his gaze fixed on her.
Lin Xihe shook her head: "You suspect it's related to her?"
“She knows Sun Ningxiang, you should remember her. Sun Ningxiang is skilled in medicine, and they have been meeting frequently recently. However, she has no way of accessing the royal secret medicines of the Western Regions.

Fearing responsibility, Gu Zhoushi immediately agreed to let Tao Musheng inspect the jade Guanyin that Jiang Huairou was preparing to send.
After examining the jade Guanyin statue, Tao Musheng found no trace of Meng Wuyou, but he did smell a faint fragrance on the cushion beneath it.
Although the fragrance resembled that of ordinary flowers, it aroused Tao Musheng's suspicions, so he inquired carefully about the relevant matters concerning the Jade Guanyin.
Upon inquiry, it was learned that Jiang Huairou purchased the jade Guanyin statue together with Sun Ningxiang.
It turned out that after that spring hunt, Jiang Huairou and Sun Ningxiang became fast friends and often went on outings together.
Yesterday, when Jiang Huairou went out to pick out a gift for Lin Xihe, she happened to run into Sun Ningxiang.
