Before Ye Hui could answer, Lu Ziyan tugged at Ji Zhen's sleeve and said softly:

"I can."

Can you believe the word "yes" from someone who can't even sit still?

Ji Zhen didn't believe a single word of it. She frowned and stared at Ye Hui and asked:

"Can it be done?"

Ye Hui silently withdrew her hand from checking Lu Ziyan's pulse, secretly glanced at Yu Bojun who looked unhappy, and then stole a glance at Lu Ziyan who lowered his eyes and remained silent, and replied after carefully choosing her words:

"Master Lu, you have a high fever and are weak, so you should rest more."

As soon as these words came out, Yu Bojun's face relaxed, and he immediately said to Ji Zhen:

"Your Highness, Lord Lin is still waiting in the hall. Let's go over now."

Before she finished her words, Ye Hui felt a chill on her back. When she raised her eyes, she immediately caught a faint glance from Lu Ziyan.

This glance was as light as duckweed floating into the water, but Ye Hui felt a chill running up her spine, making her shiver involuntarily.

At this time, Ji Zhen also frowned and looked at her and asked:

"The princess is still in a coma. If we force her to wake up, it may harm her body. If it really doesn't work, then we can only..."

"I'm fine, Your Highness."

Lu Ziyan spoke softly, leaning on Ji Zhen's shoulder, and with one finger he hooked a strand of tassels from her outer robe that was hanging beside his hand, twisting it gently, and said:

"It's just a few drops of blood. I can take it regardless of whether I have a fever or not. Your Highness doesn't need to worry about me."

When Ji Zhen heard him say this, his brows immediately knitted into a knot. He turned around, lifted up his lowered head, and said to him seriously:

"Don't let your imagination run wild. I said I won't take your blood again, not even a drop. I came here this time just to let you see if the princess' blood is poisonous."

Ji Zhen paused, turned around and motioned Ye Hui to bring a small box over for Lu Ziyan to see.

A small crimson box was brought over. Ye Hui opened the box. Lu Ziyan looked inside and found some dry leaf fragments inside.

"This is..." Lu Ziyan didn't recognize this thing.

"They are the leaves of the purple ting flower."

Ji Zhen took out a piece of dried leaf from the box, held it in her hand, and explained to Lu Ziyan:

"If you drop human blood on the burning leaves of the purple ting flower, if the person is poisoned, a strange fragrance will diffuse out. If not, it means that the person is not poisoned. But this fragrance is very special. Ye Hui and I have made mistakes many times.

Master Lu, you are different from the rest of us. You are familiar with all kinds of natural treasures and are very talented. Moreover, you and Her Royal Highness are husband and wife, so I think your judgment will not be wrong. "

When Lu Ziyan heard the word "husband and wife", his brows tightened and his face became cold. But at this moment, Yu Bojun laughed inappropriately. He took two steps to the bed, looked down at Lu Ziyan and said with great joy:

"Isn't it? Master Lu and His Royal Highness the Crown Princess are deeply in love. Everyone in the capital knows about this. This time, Master Lu was not afraid of having a high fever and being seriously ill, but he still wanted to do a blood test for His Royal Highness the Crown Princess. If this gets out, how many people will envy him?"

Lu Ziyan's expression turned colder and colder as Yu Bojun spoke. After he finished speaking, he snorted coldly and said calmly:

"General Yu is indeed a man who has been engaged and discussed marriage. He understands the ways of husband and wife so well that I, Lu, can't compare to him.

It's just that the relationship between me and Her Royal Highness the Princess has always been in name only. Since the first day I entered the East Palace, I have lived in the pharmacy, while Her Royal Highness the Princess lives in the bedroom and rarely comes to the pharmacy. The entire East Palace knows about this, so the general doesn't need to worry about it. "

After saying that, Lu Ziyan glanced at Ji Zhen and found that she was looking at Yu Bojun in shock at the moment. He asked in disbelief:

"Bojun, you are actually engaged? How come I didn't know? Whose girl is that?"

Now it was Yu Bojun's turn to be angry. He glared at Lu Ziyan angrily, but his face turned red when he looked at Ji Zhen. He stammered:

"Don't listen to his nonsense. I have fought with you in the northwest for so many years. How could there be an engagement?"

"I dare not speak without thinking." Lu Ziyan interrupted Yu Bojun's explanation calmly and said, "It's just that I heard from the princess a few days ago that the emperor wanted to marry you to the princess, but the loyal and brave marquis said in front of the emperor that General Yu already had an engagement and a man cannot marry two women. The emperor gave up the idea of ​​​​marriage. Now you say that you don't have an engagement. Does that mean that the loyal and brave marquis is deceiving the emperor? General Yu, the crime of deceiving the emperor is a capital crime."

"What? You!"

Yu Bojun was almost confused by what Lu Zi said, but the last four words "crime of deceiving the emperor" were like thunder in his ears. He suddenly woke up and was immediately furious.

"You are such a jerk! You are actually talking nonsense in front of His Highness! I will beat you to death!"

After saying that, he waved his fist and was about to pick up Lu Ziyan from the bed and beat him, but was stopped by Ji Zhen.

"Bojun, are you crazy? Master Lu is still ill, don't be rude!"

However, as soon as Ji Zhen stood up, Lu Ziyan, who was leaning on her shoulder, suddenly lost his support and fell to the edge of the bed.

Ye Hui was startled and reached out to help him. However, she didn't even touch the corner of Lu Ziyan's clothes, and watched him fall to the edge of the bed.

thump—

Lu Ziyan's head hit the hard board at the edge of the bed, making a loud noise, which startled Ji Zhen so much that she immediately turned around to look at him.

"Master Lu...Master Lu?"

Ji Zhen carefully helped him up from the bed, only to see a red spot behind his left eyebrow, which made his already bad complexion look even worse.

Damn it! What should I do?

Ji Zhen is an expert at conquering and killing, but how can he take care of a patient?

What's more, the Lu Ziyan in front of him was like a paper-made person. He fell down as soon as he took a wrong look at him!

Now he couldn't even sit up straight. If he didn't get support, he would fall down, and if he fell down, he would faint. This half-dead look made Ji Zhen only half-hold him in his arms, protecting him tightly, and he was very annoyed.

"Ye Hui!"

Ji Zhen asked Ye Hui for help. But Ye Hui was in a state of serious self-doubt. She looked at her hands in disbelief. She asked herself deeply:

With her skills, how could she fail when treating a patient?

Seeing that Ye Hui did not respond, Ji Zhen was furious. At this moment, a pair of cold hands gently touched her fingertips. Ji Zhen looked down and saw Lu Ziyan in her arms, shaking his head and sighing:

"Your Highness, please calm down. It was Zi Yan who made you worried. Zi Yan is fine... He will be fine after taking two doses of medicine. Your Highness, don't worry about me. You should hurry up and go to the court with General Yu, otherwise General Yu will be unhappy again. If General Yu speaks rudely again and slanders Your Highness, I am afraid that you will be implicated, and it will be my fault."

When Yu Bojun heard that Lu Ziyan was actually trying to put the blame for defaming the princess on him, he was so angry that he slapped the table and said angrily:

"Lu Ziyan! What nonsense are you talking about? I just said that you and Her Royal Highness the Princess are deeply in love, how can this be considered slander? Get up right here! I will beat you to death today!"

"enough!"

Ji Zhen shouted, and Yu Bojun immediately shut up. The whole room instantly became quiet, and even Lu Ziyan's breathing became shallow. Then Ji Zhen said, grinding his back teeth:

"Someone, ask the coroner to go to the dungeon and find a way to wake up the princess, so that she can come up and take care of her husband!"

this......

Lu Ziyan, nestling in Ji Zhen's arms, froze all over. This was an unexpected development for him.
