A car accident, our family of three crossed

Zhou Yin entered Zhou Huan's house in the capital as a servant of Zhou Mansion in the daytime, met Zhou Huan's eldest son, and changed his clothes and entered the Prince Rui's mansion at night. After entering the palace, he found out that Prince Rui had left the capital with His Majesty to go to the Summer Resort and was not in the palace at this time.

When the news reached Xiao Yun, he was reading the results of Chu Yi's investigation.

Chu Yi did the opposite and secretly followed the route that Song Xiucai took when he left his hometown to study. As time went by, he put a lot of effort into it and it took him more than two months to finally get the result.

Song Xiucai had indeed been to the capital and stayed in a village for some time. The village he was in was just below the foot of a mountain where the late queen fell off the cliff. If the late queen was rescued by Song Xiucai after she fell off the cliff, it was not impossible. The time and place matched, and from all the signs, it was almost certain that Song Xiucai's wife was the late queen.

This result was within Xiao Yun's expectations. Although he had been mentally prepared, he was still deeply touched when he heard Chu Yi say that the former queen had destroyed her own appearance. Why did she destroy her own appearance? The answer is unknown.

"Thank you for your hard work, go down and rest."

Just as Chu Yi was sent away, Chu Er came in, "Your Majesty, there is news from the capital that Elder Xin has returned and is now in the palace." He paused and said, "In addition, someone from Pingyang County has come."

"Pingyang County? Who is coming?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun took the lead in paying attention to the situation in Pingyang County.

Chu Er said: "The one who came is Nighthawk Sixteen. He said he brought back a token and wanted to hand it to you personally."

Speaking of the token, Xiao Yun's first reaction was to guess that it was related to the Hang family. His face suddenly became serious, and he couldn't help but wonder what had happened to them that made them use the token he left behind.

Suddenly, he asked a question off topic, as if casually asking, "How is your Majesty's health recently?"

"Your Majesty is in good mental state." Chu Er answered truthfully.

Xiao Yun pondered for a long time, then said quietly, "Get ready. Your Majesty's old illness has relapsed, and he will leave for the capital tomorrow."

Chu Er was slightly startled, then he bowed and said, "Yes, I will take my leave."

Late at night, His Majesty's bedroom was thrown into chaos by a loud cry of "Call the imperial physician". The imperial physicians accompanying His Majesty were dragged and pushed into the bedroom by His Majesty's personal guards in their sleep to treat His Majesty.

"My lords, your Majesty's old illness has relapsed. Only Lord Xin can cure this disease. We, your servants, are incapable of treating it..." When everyone arrived upon hearing the news, they heard the unanimous conclusion of the imperial doctors.

"If you can't cure the disease, what's the point of keeping mediocre doctors like you?" Prince An Xiao Ke was furious. He stepped forward and kicked the chief physician who was kneeling in the front.

After being kicked over, the chief physician got up and knelt down again. "Prince An, please calm down. It is true that the poison that Your Majesty was previously poisoned with was too strong. Only the Poison Master can cure the symptoms. We, the officials, are really helpless."

Xiao Ke was resentful of Old Man Xin for embarrassing him in public. He sneered at what he heard: "Humph, you are the imperial physician of the palace, but you are not even as good as a humble doctor. How can you still have the nerve to be an imperial physician?"

The imperial doctors kept wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads. This gentleman must not have learned enough lessons from before. This was the Poison Master, not some self-taught doctor as he said.

The doctors did not dare to refute him, but some would not tolerate him. "Second brother, you'd better be careful with your words and actions. Otherwise, next time you are punished by Lord Poison, your words will not work."

Xiao Ke choked. He only dared to say that because the old man was not around. He wanted to refute, but he thought that he would always lose in the end every time he had a verbal dispute, so he endured it. Xiao Yun sneered. It seemed that he had a master behind him to guide him. He was smarter and could keep his composure.

"How is your Majesty doing now?" Xiao Yun asked.

"In reply to Prince Rui, your majesty's body was corroded by a stubborn poison earlier, which damaged his foundation. The Poison Lord had instructed you at the time that you should not indulge in matters between men and women, and you must not take such strong and dangerous drugs..." the chief physician said tremblingly.

"You mean that His Majesty took the tiger and wolf medicine, which triggered his old illness?"

"That's right. We have found stimulant drugs in the pastries that Your Majesty has eaten." The doctor said as he brought the plate of pastries to Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun was furious: "How can this be possible? Who brought this plate of cakes to Your Majesty?"

"Your Highness, it was brought by Concubine Li." The young eunuch serving before His Majesty pointed to a concubine from the harem who was kneeling and shivering in the corner.

"Come here, drag this criminal woman who caused the relapse of His Majesty's old illness away and beat her to death."

Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that His Royal Highness Prince Rui would order the execution. However, no one dared to object. After all, it would endanger the safety of His Majesty, and no one dared to take this bad luck.

Xiao Ke moved his lips, but under the old prime minister's glare, he remained silent in the end.

Only Li Cairen struggled to death when she was dragged away by the guards, saying, "No, I am your Majesty's man, you can't execute me..."

"Hmph! I have injured His Majesty's body. Even if I die ten thousand times, it will not be enough to atone for my sin." Xiao Yun spat out these words coldly, then waved his hand and had him dragged away.

Li Cairen was struggling to say something, but the old prime minister, who had been silent all this time, suddenly shouted, "Quickly shut her mouth, or she won't disturb His Majesty."

The old prime minister was eager to silence Li Cairen because he didn't want her to say anything she shouldn't. Xiao Yun knew this very well, but he turned a deaf ear to it. Such a small character couldn't get any useful information at all.

That woman was just a chess piece planted by the Prime Minister and his group beside His Majesty. She had no good intentions and her death was not a pity. After Li Cairen was gagged and dragged away by the guards, no one cared about her life or death anymore.

Xiao Yun ordered, "Pass the order down, set off for the capital tomorrow, and summon Duke Du to the palace to treat His Majesty."

The old prime minister raised his eyelids and said, "But your majesty is not in good health now, and I am afraid it is not suitable for traveling. If anything happens on the way back to the capital..."

"What do you think, old Prime Minister?" Xiao Yun threw the question to the other party.

"I think it would be safer to send someone back to the capital to ask for the poison master."

"This is a possible solution, but if Your Majesty misses the best time for treatment during this trip, can the old Prime Minister bear the responsibility?" Without waiting for the other party to reply, Xiao Yun sneered, "Even if Your Majesty can hold on until then, who can guarantee that the Poison Lord can be invited back to the capital this time? Can the old Prime Minister invite him? Or can His Royal Highness Prince An invite him?"

The old prime minister was speechless for a moment, but Xiao Ke said unconvincedly: "If it is according to your opinion, won't there be any accidents on the way back to the capital?"

He wanted to say more, but the old prime minister pulled him back, then bowed to Xiao Yun and said, "Everything will be arranged by His Royal Highness Prince Rui."
