Chapter 254 Even jumping into the ocean won't clear my name.
Xiao Qingyu did not answer him, but instead picked up her chopsticks, took a bite of food, and put it in her mouth.
"Son!"
Jian Qing exclaimed in surprise.
"Don't worry, this is not poison."
After chewing a few bites, he put down his chopsticks.
"This is the fragrance of joy."
Upon hearing that it was Han Huanxiang, Jian Qing's eyes widened.
Albizia julibrissin is a highly potent aphrodisiac.
For ordinary people, even a little bit of it can make them lose their minds and become infatuated.
Jianqing observed his young master's reaction.
His master has been dealing with medicine since childhood, and his resistance is extraordinary, so he should be fine.
"Put it aside for now; someone will surely come soon!"
Since someone has set up this trap, someone will definitely come.
Biyunting.
Seeing that Wu Weiwei was dressed and about to leave, Wanqiu asked worriedly, "Auntie, is it really necessary to take this step?"
She was afraid that if things escalated, her aunt might...
Just thinking about it filled her with dread.
"Wanqiu, this is the fastest way for me to escape!"
After saying that, Wu Weiwei resolutely stepped out of the courtyard.
Those who had been waiting outside Biyun Courtyard saw Wu Weiwei leave the courtyard and hurriedly ran towards Qiu Xinyuan.
The light in He Yuyan's room remained on.
A moment later, Dingxiang walked in from outside.
"Girl, there's some noise over there."
He Yuyan sat up. "Go and get my needles..."
Dingxiang handed over the needle case, and then He Yuyan took out the needles and inserted them into several acupoints on her navel.
"Young lady, what do you want?"
He Yuyan glanced at her but did not answer her.
A short while later, He Yuyan was seen trembling and sweating profusely.
"You, quickly go to Qingsong Courtyard and invite the young master. Tell him I've had a heart attack, and that you must get him here no matter what..."
"Yes."
Seeing this, Dingxiang already understood what her master meant.
Then I saw her rushing towards the Green Pine Courtyard.
In the middle of the night, Lu Hanting was woken up by Ru Feng shouting outside.
"Your Highness, please save our young lady! She's having a heart attack and is in terrible pain..."
Dingxiang was crying and shouting outside.
Upon hearing that He Yuyan was experiencing a heart palpitation attack, Lu Hanting was jolted awake.
Have you called a doctor yet?
“The young lady wouldn’t let me invite her, and even said that she herself is a doctor.”
"That's ridiculous! Still trying to be tough at a time like this!"
In the darkness, the prince's tone was authoritative and seemed to carry a hint of suppressed anger.
Dingxiang didn't know if the young master was worried about her young lady or angry because he was woken up from his sleep.
Wearing only his inner garment and an outer robe, Lu Hanting opened the door and walked towards Qiu Xinyuan.
Ru Feng and Ding Xiang hurriedly followed behind.
Not long after the group left, a maid who was guarding the courtyard quietly went into a guest room next door.
Looking at the woman in red who seemed to be sleeping soundly and lifeless on the bed, the maid took out a bottle from her sleeve.
"Miss Qingying, I'm sorry."
The maid pried open her mouth and then fed her the liquid from the jade bottle.
A moment.
When she touched her nose again, she realized that she was no longer breathing.
mission completed.
The maid was about to put the bottle away when she turned around and saw Liu Yun looking at her with a gloomy face.
"what are you doing?"
A terrifying sound, like something out of hell, came from the room, and the little maid was so frightened that she dropped the bottle to the ground.
"Liu, Liuyun Guard..."
Liu Yun darted over, and when he saw the lifeless Red Widow, his pupils suddenly dilated.
"You killed her? Tell me, who ordered you to do it?"
The maid froze, then collapsed to the ground.
Qiu Xinyuan.
"Yan'er, how are you feeling? Why would you suddenly experience heart palpitations?"
On the bed, He Yuyan's face was pale, and she was seen clutching her chest tightly with both hands.
"Your Highness, Yan'er just had a dream. In the dream, I died in a way that was unrecognizable."
How terrifying! I thought I would never see the Crown Prince again…
He Yuyan's voice choked with sobs, and she looked at him with a pitiful expression, like a sickly beauty.
With Dingxiang's explanation, Lu Hanting learned that He Yuyan's palpitations were caused by a dream in which she dreamt of dying tragically.
Lu Hanting took her hand and comforted her, "That was a dream, not real."
"Don't worry, my senior brother will stay in the manor these next few days to treat the Red Widow. Once she wakes up, the Gu poison in your body will be cured..."
"Is the Red Widow the woman you brought back, Your Highness?"
He Yuyan looked at him, puzzled.
"Yes, she carries the Mother Gu within her. Once she wakes up, Senior Brother can use her to draw out the Child Gu within you..."
Although the eldest brother said that day that Yan'er's Gu poison was almost incurable.
However, after learning that the Red Widow had a mother Gu poison hidden in her body, he told her that there was a way to remove Yan'er's Gu poison.
He Yuyan was stunned for a moment.
It was clearly Qingying who poisoned herself, and both of them drank the tea that day.
He Yuyan suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.
This……
Could the unconscious Red Widow that the Crown Prince mentioned be Qingying?
Qingying has been captured by the Crown Prince?
He Yuyan gripped the prince's hand tightly. If it really was Qingying, then she could indeed detoxify herself.
But she knew about her entanglement with Shen Bazhi. If she woke up, would she...?
He Yuyan was so shocked by this fact that she froze.
Seeing He Yuyan's pale face and trembling body, Lu Hanting assumed she was frightened by a nightmare.
After comforting and coaxing her for a long time, the prince finally came out of the house.
As soon as I came out, I saw Liu Yun rushing to Qiu Xinyuan.
"Liu Yun, why aren't you guarding the courtyard? What are you doing here?"
Seeing Liu Yun's expression, Ru Feng asked curiously.
However, Liu Yun ignored him and instead knelt down in front of the prince with a heavy expression.
"Your Highness, the Red Widow has just been silenced!"
"When did this happen?"
"Just after you left..."
Upon hearing this news, Lu Hanting's calm expression instantly crumbled, revealing murderous intent.
"go back!"
Lu Hanting led his men and strode away from Qiu Xinyuan.
After everyone left, He Yuyan summoned Dingxiang.
"Dingxiang, what happened outside just now?"
Dingxiang cautiously stepped forward.
"Young lady, I heard that the suspect who was unconscious in the Qingsong Courtyard was just poisoned to death!"
"what!"
Upon hearing the news of Qingying's death, He Yuyan trembled all over.
She was clutching her collar tightly, as if she couldn't breathe.
Seeing her mistress in this state, Dingxiang was so frightened that she quickly came over to comfort her.
"Girl, what's wrong? Don't scare Dingxiang!"
After a while, He Yuyan finally caught her breath.
She stared at her maid with shocked eyes.
"Dingxiang, it's over, my face is beyond saving..."
Moon Tower.
Wu Weiwei, accompanied by her maid, arrived at the agreed-upon location on the note.
This describes Xiao Qingyu's residence.
"Auntie, should we go any further?"
She had heard that Young Master Xiao had been arranged by the Lady of the Marquis to stay in a guest room on the north side.
If Auntie walks any further and gets seen, she'll be in deep trouble and won't be able to clear her name even if she jumps into the ocean!
Wu Weiwei glanced at Ling Fu with a smile.
"What are you afraid of? Look at this note, isn't it an invitation for me to come to his house to discuss something?"
