The Regent's Koi Princess

As soon as Jia Deshui finished speaking, Yu Yanran's body collapsed to the ground weakly. The air around her seemed to solidify, and time became unusually slow at this moment. As she was caught on the spot, Yu Yanran's mind went blank.

At this moment, she was no longer able to think about how all this happened. She had planned everything well, so why did something unexpected happen?

Her eyes were filled with a mixture of disbelief and fear, the corners of her mouth trembled slightly, and she tried to say something, but could only make faint gasps.

The sunlight shone through the gaps in the wooden window onto her pale face, but it could not warm her cold heart.

She quickly thought about how this happened. Her plan was flawless! But she didn't expect...

It turned out that everything she had carefully planned was just a chess piece in the layout of others, cleverly placed in a jar, waiting for the moment when the net was closed, and everything would be exposed.

She crawled on the ground, using her hands and feet to crawl towards Jia Deshui.

Yu Yanran's fair and delicate little hands tightly grasped Jia Deshui's gorgeous hem, her nails almost embedded in the fabric, and each grasp seemed so powerless and desperate.

Her forehead hit the cold floor tiles heavily, making three dull "bang, bang, bang" sounds. Each impact was accompanied by a slight tremor in her body, as if she wanted to integrate all her regret and fear into these three kowtows.

For a moment, tears mixed with the blood on her forehead blurred her vision, but she still stubbornly looked up at Jia Deshui's cold and ruthless face, her voice was sobbing but unusually clear: "Please spare my life, eunuch. I will never dare to do it again... I beg you to be merciful and spare me this time... I beg you, eunuch."

Her voice became smaller and smaller, and finally turned into a faint and sad plea, echoing in the empty imperial kitchen, sounding particularly harsh.

Because she understood that she was unforgivable for daring to poison the emperor.

Even the entire clan may be implicated.

Jia Deshui was disgusted and kicked her away: "Bitch, take your dirty hands away and don't humiliate this eunuch."

As soon as Jia Deshui finished speaking, Doctor Sun walked quickly into the imperial kitchen led by a young eunuch.

The guard holding the medicine bag quickly handed it to Doctor Sun for examination.

As expected of the chief physician of the Imperial Pharmacy, Doctor Sun gently twisted the remaining powder in the paper bag with his fingers. The subtle movement revealed a solemnity that could not be ignored.

He slowly moved the powder under his nose and took a light sniff. In an instant, his eyes, which had seen thousands of medicinal herbs, suddenly widened, as if they were grabbed by an invisible force.

An unusual smell filled the air, which was both familiar and frightening. It was the smell of a highly toxic substance that could only be found in the secret medicine of the palace.

Doctor Sun's face turned pale in an instant. He looked up at Yu Yanran, who was lying on the ground with tears in her eyes. A complex emotion flashed in his eyes - shock, anger, and a trace of unspeakable sadness.

He clenched his fists, as if trying his best to suppress the turmoil in his heart. His deep and stern voice echoed in the imperial kitchen: "How dare you, a servant, be so bold! This poison is enough to kill you. Do you know your crime?"

After saying this, he turned to face Jia Deshui, his eyes burning with anger, "Eunuch, this matter is of no small importance. We must report it to the emperor immediately and punish him severely!"

When Jia Deshui heard this, he trembled all over. Fortunately, the Regent had noticed it early, so he specifically told him to be careful of this maid.

Unexpectedly, the Regent guessed it right, so he specially sent someone to keep an eye on this little servant girl.

If you are careless, the consequences will be disastrous!

That’s the emperor!

"Comer"

Jia Deshui roared: "First, lock this slave up in the prison and let the Ministry of Justice interrogate her to find out who is behind her.

This eunuch will never believe that she alone dares to do such a heinous thing.

Also, how did she get into the palace? Find out everything for me, eunuch."

"Yes"

Two guards walked quickly to Yu Yanran, picked her up on the left and right, and dragged her away.

Yu Yanran was roughly lifted up by the guards, her feet dangling in the air and she kicked wildly with her hands, trying desperately to break free from the hopeless shackles.

Her voice was shrill with fear, and she pleaded desperately, "Please spare my life, sir! I was really confused for a moment, and I won't dare to do it again! Please have mercy and spare my life!"

Tears slid down like pearls from a broken string, intertwining with the bloodstains on the forehead.

Her eyes were filled with a desire for life, but she could only watch herself move away from hope step by step as she was dragged towards the dark prison.

Every struggle seemed so powerless, like fallen leaves in the autumn wind, ultimately unable to escape the arrangement of fate.

Listening to her wailing, Jia Deshui frowned, raised his hand to pinch his brows, then raised his orchid finger and shouted in a shrill voice: "Why don't you drag her away? Staying here is giving me a headache."

Then he turned his head and looked at Doctor Sun and whispered: "Thank you Doctor Sun for making this special trip. I am very grateful to you.

Imperial Physician, please go ahead and do your work. I will go find the Regent right away. This matter is too serious and I cannot afford it."

After Jia Deshui finished speaking, he turned around and left. Before leaving, he specially arranged for the guards to notify the cooks and servants to carefully check the imperial kitchen.

Asakazonomiya

In the study

Jiang Che sat steadily on the chair at the desk, sipping his tea nonchalantly.

Calculating the date, given Zhao Zhoucheng's methods, the maidservant would probably take action.

After all, he had not yet guessed what had happened from the time the maid was sent into the palace to the time she was favored by the young emperor who had never been interested in women.

But he was sure that there must be a conspiracy.

Although Qinyin Pavilion was doing legitimate business, he had heard a lot about the shameful activities in the entertainment industry. In short, he believed that the servant must have used some shady tricks.

Just as he was immersed in his own thoughts, there was a knock on the door in the study, and the voice of Chen Zheng, the fool, came in: "Your Majesty, Eunuch Jia wants to see you."

Jia Deshui?

Ah!

The man raised his lips upon hearing this, slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip, then raised his eyebrows, looked in the direction of the study door and whispered: "Let him in."

As the wooden door creaked, Jia Deshui trotted in and saw Jiang Che gasping for breath: "Prince...Prince, it's just as you thought. The maid attacked the emperor."

The man leaned lazily on the back of his chair, looking confident of victory, and pointed his chin at Jia Deshui: "Don't be anxious, talk slowly."

"Yes"

Jia Deshui raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead caused by his anxiety, and recounted the whole story in detail.

After hearing what Jia Deshui said, the man raised his hand and tapped lightly on the desk. For a moment, the only sound in the entire study was breathing.

After a moment of silence, the man raised his head and frowned at Jia Deshui, saying, "Send someone to the Ministry of Justice's jail immediately and tell the assistant minister to carefully investigate the unfamiliar faces in the past two days.

I believe that once the news of the maid's arrest gets out, the person behind her will definitely find a way to get rid of her.

If my guess is correct, the person behind this will definitely not let her survive tonight."
