Yan Yuqing and Li Tan looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

Was it a plague? If it was the plague, it would be troublesome!

Li Tan brought her to a deserted place and asked softly, "Are you a new person to the crown prince's side?"

The servant girl slowly raised her head and warmly replied, "The servant girl has just arrived at the crown prince's side. She was the daughter of the accountant Lin Yuan, and her name was Yun. "

Even when he was in such a state of panic, he was still able to speak clearly and in such a orderly manner. Yan Yuqing looked at Lin Yun, thinking that she deserved to be taught by the old ancestor.

Li Tan glanced at Yan Yuqing, patted her chest and said, "Fortunately, she is your woman. I am relieved now." He then instructed Lin Yun, "This is a very important matter, the Crown Prince's Palace will be sealed off from the public. I'll go find the empress first. "

"Then I'll go see the crown prince first." Yan Yuqing was a little worried about Xuanyuan Jue.

The rash, because of the risk of infection, was taboo even in the palace.

Hearing that Yan Yuqing was going to visit, Li Tan did not hide anything, and her eyes reddened with emotion.

Yan Yuqing patted his hand and comforted him, "We are all relatives, I will go see the crown prince and tell my aunt when we get back." When you speak to your aunt, be careful of her mood. Today is her birthday, so you must not let anyone else see it. "

Yan Yuqing spoke slowly, her soft voice like a spring breeze soothing Li Tan's anxious heart.

Inside the residence of the crown prince, the few elderly men from the hospital were discussing the crown prince's illness outside. Upon seeing Yan Yuqing, they said, "This illness of the crown prince does not resemble a plague, but rather a poison. Although it is not very toxic, it is a matter of great importance. We still need to observe it. "

Hearing that even the head judge, Lord Yang, had spoken like this, Yan Yuqing's anxious heart finally relaxed a little. Just that, what was going on with the poison?

The Crown Prince's food and drinks had been served by someone else, and he was suddenly poisoned. This was rather odd.

Yan Yuqing whispered a few sentences into the ear of Lady Jiang. "I will discuss it with Esteemed Empress, and tomorrow I will invite the monks of Hongfu Temple over to pray for the crown prince's blessings. Today, they first sent someone to bring some clear water for the maidservants in the hall to drink, so that they could go through some bad luck. "

"Me too." Xuanyuan Jue hurriedly said, "It was sent over by this esteemed monk. It's still good."

The corners of Yan Yuqing's mouth twitched as she tried to hold it in. "These are all for the servants to drink today. You will be here tomorrow."

Yan Yuqing was sitting on a chair with red and sour branches and tortoiseshell shell covering her face, calmly looking down at the group of servants kneeling down below.

"Hongfu Temple has sent a cup of pure water today. Please come here to try it, go to the Unlucky Qi and touch it with the old man's immortal qi." Yan Yuqing straightened her posture, and continued while looking below with rapt attention, "Old Master Fang sent people to say that the crown prince's residence is shrouded in dark clouds, and that it is a bad omen.

"This Heart Cleansing Water is contained within the talisman, it has the effect of repelling evil from disasters. However, the rune water is quite intelligent and people who hear that they have ill intentions will feel a stomachache when they drink it. "

As she was speaking, the maidservant had already brought the wooden bucket and bowl in. Yan Yuqing waved to the crowd and said, "Go ahead and serve them. I still have to see the crown prince later. "

After he finished speaking, he left the group of kneeling attendants in his wake. Guardian Jiang and Senior Servant Li spoke a few more words before leaving as well.

For a moment, only the people who brought the water and the people who brought the water remained in the spacious hall.

Drinking or not, it all depended on one's sense of self.

Hongfu Temple held a high position in the capital. Because the old man had been in seclusion all year round, the imperial family had rushed to the temple like a flock of ducks. If it were not for the fact that the foundation of the kingdom had been set up, and even the abbot could not sit still, how could the maids of the palace easily drink it?

If they hadn't done something shameful, who wouldn't want to drink such a good thing?

Inside the crown prince's residence, the imperial physician had already prescribed the medicine and gone back to his room. Only a few attendants were left behind.

Yan Yuqing walked over to Xuanyuan Jue's bedside and saw that his eyelashes were still slightly trembling from closing eyes. She said unhappily, "How long are you going to keep doing this?"

Xuanyuan Jue slowly opened his eyes and looked around to see that there was no one around him. He then heaved a sigh of relief. Feeling a little embarrassed, she pulled on Yan Yuqing's wide sleeve and asked, "Good cousin, how did you know?"

Yan Yuqing sighed and could not help but rebuke him, "If you did not intentionally relax your diet, how could the person who poisoned the food be able to successfully administer the poison under the supervision of your secret guard?"

"You even dare to drink poison, do you still want to drink more?"

When Xuanyuan Jue heard Yan Yuqing's caring tone, his heart warmed. He pondered for a long time before a tinge of gloom flashed across his eyes, "Isn't it that the duke of Ning insisted on having some sort of consort selection ceremony? He said that he would put the Zheng Family's Seventh Miss, the Xiao Family's Xiao Bi Luo, and his family's Ning Qi Yue into the list of candidates. I still haven't figured out a way to deal with it, so I'll have to delay it for a while. "

It was not time for dinner yet, the crown prince's residence was already bustling with noise and excitement. Other than the servants arranged to enter the palace by the Duke of Yun's estate and Madame Cui, many of them felt a wrenching pain in their stomachs as they frequently ran to the toilet.

Of course, there were also two or three exceptions. They were safe and sound at the moment, and they were sitting upright in their ears while waiting for questions to be asked.

After Jiang Xiushan had spent some time to interrogate him, Yan Yuqing smiled indifferently, "The danger of stealing the direct line of descent is unpredictable. It's better to be a rich and idle person."

"What exactly did you give them to drink?" Inside the crown prince's residence, Xuanyuan Jue propped up his somewhat weak body as he asked out of curiosity.

Yan Yuqing blinked her eyes and said in an enigmatic tone, "Dou Dou."

"Pu!" Xuanyuan Jue spat out the soup and looked at Yan Yuqing in astonishment. "Aren't you afraid that the Buddha will blame you for pulling the banner of the Hongfu Temple and trying to trick us?"

Yan Yuqing's phoenix eyes lit up, and immediately revealed a Buddhist smile. She said crisply, "I am punishing the evil, Buddha will know."

With that, he looked at the green bamboo that had rushed over and said, "It's already time for the wedding gift. Li Tan told the princess to hurry over so the empress wouldn't be suspicious."

Yan Yuqing replied and left. She made her way through a long passageway before arriving at Cheng Xiang Palace.

Tubes and strings of silk bamboo, singing and dancing, the hall is bustling with noise and excitement.

The empress was looking on with a smile, one of the people who had always congratulated her on her birthday. When it was Yan Yuqing's turn, she went up to him with a gift prepared beforehand and said a few words of congratulations.

The dress Wang Yanqing was wearing was a little pleated sunflower skirt with a crease of gold on its foundation. The hem of the skirt was spread out flat on the ground. From afar, it looked just like a tender and delicate flower.

The blood coral hairpin in her hand was as long as two hands, and its smooth surface was suffused with a moist light. It was very suitable for such a happy day.

Someone at the side asked curiously, "What kind of jewelry is this? I don't think I've seen it before. "

"It's similar to my family's coral bonsai, but it's not as red as the branch on this hairpin."

The empress saw the admiring look on the woman's face and asked happily, "What is that? It's so pretty?"

Yan Yuqing did not hold back and only said respectfully, "It was found on the other side of the sea. There weren't many of them, so this is the most popular. The rest have been handed over to the Liu Family to be inlaid with the Golden Tower. "

The empress beamed with joy as she praised him, "Thank you for your concern." She then got Yan Yuqing to personally help her put it on.

With so many gifts, he could be considered to have given sufficient face to Yan Yuqing just by getting close to the empress.

The red coral hairpin was exceptionally dazzling amongst the golden hair ornaments, causing the empress's face to turn a bit redder. All the wives in the hall whispered to each other as they discussed the topic of going to the Liu Family's Golden House to take a look.

Yan Yuqing was extremely happy. It seemed that the remaining coral branches would sell for a good price.

The empress had purposely arranged for the girls to stay together, hoping that they would be able to play around as they pleased and not be held hostage.

After Yan Yuqing sat down, Xiao Bi Luo walked over and smiled as he handed her a box. "Big sister Qing'Er, do you want to open it and take a look?"

Yan Yuqing opened the box curiously. Inside was a gold bracelet with emerald, ruby and sapphire embedded in it.

Seeing the happiness on Yan Yuqing's face, Xiao Bi Luo continued to smile. "Big brother said that this is for big sister Qing Er."

With that, he shocked everyone.
