Transmigrating to Female Supremacy: Husbands, Don’t Be Too Outrageous

Ji Zhen's mood reached its worst the moment she saw Li Yuanzhen lying on the ground.

The cell had been covered with black cloth again, and Li Yuanzhen was lying on the ground next to the cell fence. Not far from her, there were two overturned braziers, and several guards were cleaning up the charcoal ash residue scattered on the ground.

"what happened?"

Ji Zhen's brows were tied in a knot. The guard told her that Li Yuanzhen had fallen asleep, but he didn't say that he fell asleep in this way, nor did he say that the place would be in such a mess.

"Your Highness, we followed your order and covered the cell with black cloth again. But Her Highness the Princess suddenly made trouble and didn't let us cover the cell with black cloth. She kicked over the brazier and tried to burn the black cloth, and rushed into the cell, shouting something like 'Jiang Yan, come out'..."

The guard answered while carefully observing Ji Zhen's expression. Seeing that Ji Zhen's expression darkened even more, he quickly added:

"However, we kept in mind His Highness's orders and stopped the Princess from making trouble in time. We did not cause any commotion among the prisoners."

Stop it in time?

Ji Zhen's cold eyes swept across the cell surrounded by black cloth. The drug prisoners were afraid of light and easily frightened, so the floor of the cell where they were held was covered with hay. Outside the cell, loud noises were also strictly prohibited.

Therefore, there is only one way to stop Li Yuanzhen from going crazy.

Ji Zhen stepped forward and reached out to touch Li Yuanzhen's neck, then raised his eyes and asked the guard:

"Where did you hit him?"

The guard's eyes flickered and he whispered:

"Your Highness, please forgive me. I had no choice but to do it. So... I hit him on the back of the neck."

The guard quickly glanced at Ji Zhen's expression and added:

"I, I just hit her. The princess was a little bit, she couldn't take it. She passed out right away."

Ji Zhen touched Li Yuanzhen's head, but saw no signs of falling or collision, so he asked:

"She didn't fall? What did you do to her?"

"No, no! Your Highness, how dare I do anything to Her Highness the Princess!" The guard waved his hands repeatedly and pointed to a chair beside him, saying, "The chair caught her, so the Princess didn't fall."

Ji Zhen turned Li Yuanzhen over, glanced at the water stains at the corners of her mouth, raised her eyebrows and said:

"Then, because you were afraid of my punishment, you fed her some soothing soup and told me that she fainted?"

The guard was startled when he heard this, and he knelt down in front of Ji Zhen with a plop, bowed his head and said:

"No! I dare not! After I lifted her to the ground, I found that the princess seemed to be waking up, so I gave her a calming soup. Unexpectedly, after giving her the soup, her face turned blue. So I hurriedly reported it to His Highness."

Ji Zhen sniffed Li Yuanzhen's breath and found it was normal, but his face was blue and looked a little scary.

She snorted coldly, stood up, looked down at the guard kneeling on the ground, and said slowly:

"You are quite courageous. You dared to stab the princess and even gave her a calming soup. This is so disrespectful. If she wakes up and asks for trouble, I'm afraid even the gods can't save you."

When the guard heard what Ji Zhen said, his face turned pale, his mouth trembled for a long time, and he couldn't utter a word.

Seeing him so frightened, Ji Zhen felt even more disgusted:

"I just said you were brave, but you're so scared? You're such a loser. Go back to the East Camp and take twenty military sticks instead of standing here and embarrassing me."

When the guard heard Ji Zhen asking him to return to the East Camp, he knew that she had saved him. His mouth stopped trembling, his face turned red, his voice became louder, and he knocked heavily on the ground and said happily:

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

"roll roll roll."

Ji Zhen kicked him on the butt impatiently and told him to move quickly, and then asked two guards to move Li Yuanzhen from the ground to the hay in the empty cell opposite.

The blazing torch illuminated Li Yuanzhen's blue face clearly. Ji Zhen's brows furrowed deeper as she looked at her.

This look is too much like the complexion of a medicine man when he has an attack, but her symptoms are milder than those of the medicine men.

But why did Li Yuanzhen drug herself?

A lot of questions turned into a simple command when the coroner arrived.

"Take a bowl of her blood." Ji Zhen said to the coroner.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the coroner was so frightened that he dropped the tool kit in his hand to the ground. He was trembling and dared not look at Li Yuanzhen lying on the hay. He knelt down in front of Ji Zhen and said:

"Your Highness, Your Highness, how dare I harm the holy body of Your Highness, the Princess, I... I..."

He stammered for a long time and kowtowed, but he moved further away from Li Yuanzhen.

Whether Li Yuanzhen had taken the medicine or not could be known by testing her blood, but Ji Zhen did not expect that the coroner in Yin's office would be so scared.

"Useless. Is the Yin Office going to support a coward like you?"

Ji Zhen's face was covered with frost. She picked up the coroner's tool kit, took out a long needle from it, wrapped one end with white cloth, and roasted it over the fire.

This needle is very thick and long, with a sharp end and a funnel-shaped end. It is hollow in the middle and is used to draw blood.

After roasting for a while, the sharp end of the long needle turned slightly red. Ji Zhen asked the guard to bring a small water cup and placed it beside Li Yuanzhen. He took the long needle off the fire, felt the vein on Ji Zhen's arm, and pierced it directly.

Bright red blood flowed out and soon filled the lamp. Ji Zhen picked it up and looked at it against the flame, but could not tell the difference between it and ordinary blood.

Ji Zhen frowned, covered the cup of blood with a white cloth, stood up, and said to the coroner who was still shaking:

"Go, help those medicine men get some blood and give it to Ye Hui."

The coroner nodded repeatedly as if relieved, grabbed the tool bag, lifted the black cloth and went into the cell opposite.

Ji Zhen took the water cup to the guest room in the backyard of Yin's office and found Ye Hui who was writing a prescription for Lu Ziyan.

When Ye Hui saw her, he quickly put down his pen, stood up and saluted:

"Your Highness."

"Well, how is he?"

Ji Zhen helped Ye Hui up and looked at Lu Ziyan who was lying on the bed. He was running a high fever at the moment, and his entire body from face to neck was an abnormally light pink, which made Ji Zhen frown.

"You've got this much fever, and you haven't used any medicine yet?"

"It's alright, Your Highness."

Ye Hui handed the written prescription to Ji Zhen and said:

"Mr. Lu has been taking medicine to nourish his body since he was young. Ordinary medicine is probably useless to him. It is even worse to use random medicine when he has a fever now. It is better to let him have the fever for a few hours and see how it goes. If we can stimulate his self-protection consciousness, maybe he can recover without medicine."

Ji Zhen glanced at the prescription written by Ye Hui. It was all warming herbs. It was probably just a placebo for Lu Ziyan's inexplicable fever. So she ordered:

"It's not good to keep the fever going. Since it's inconvenient to use the medicine, don't use it for now. Ask the servants to wipe his body with strong liquor, and then go to the ice cellar in my mansion to find some ice and apply it on his forehead."

"Yes, Your Highness." Ye Hui agreed one by one.

After Ji Zhen finished instructing Ye Hui on everything, he handed the cup of water to her and said:

"The princess was in the dungeon for less than half an hour before her face turned blue. I drew her blood, and you can test it to see if she has taken the drug as well."

Ye Hui took the water cup, put it under the candlelight, looked at it carefully, frowned and said:

"There are seeds of the purple ting flower in the fire basin in the dungeon. Only those who have taken the medicine will have an attack after smelling the aroma of the burning seeds. But why did Your Highness give yourself the medicine?"

Ji Zhen nodded, glanced at Lu Ziyan lying on the bed, and said in a low voice:

"I have seen the condition of the princess. Her attack was very mild. Her face was only slightly blue and there was no blood on her neck. So, I guess that Master Lu has a special physique. It is both medicine and poison. Perhaps when he was in bed with the princess, he accidentally passed the poison to her..."

"I didn't. I never slept with her."

Ji Zhen was interrupted before she finished her words. She turned around suddenly and looked at Lu Ziyan, who had woken up at some point and was staring at her. Then she heard him say:

"Your Highness, I have always been innocent."
