Flowers bloom without worries

"Why don't you continue? I'm still listening."

"My dear, you and I sat together from day till night, and talked from night till dawn."

"Even the most powerful people need to rest, not to mention I have to go to court."

"But when it comes to the point, why don't you talk about it?"

"If you don't tell me what caused our relationship to break down, how can I investigate whether your loved one was killed by me?"

Xiao Chuhan's eyes suddenly became stern. The rift in his relationship with Wuyou was perhaps the thing Xiao Chuhan was most reluctant to mention.

"It's getting late. I have to go to court."

Xiao Chuhan stood up and left without looking back. Lan Xi looked at Xiao Chuhan leaving and felt helpless.

"You'er, how can I help you?"

"Can you tell me in your dream?"

At this time, Jiuer came to Lan Xi.

"My queen, Jiuer has prepared breakfast, please eat something."

Lan Xi yawned, looked at Jiuer, and said to her: "I'm too sleepy, so I won't have breakfast. I'm going to rest."

Lan Xi asked all the maids in the bedroom to leave. Lan Xi remembered that Wuyou had told her that he would only see her through his consciousness when he was at his weakest.

However, she couldn't hurt herself again and again just to see Wuyou. If she didn't, she wouldn't be able to find out the truth for Wuyou. Even if she didn't torture herself, Xiao Chuhan would continue to torture her.

Lan Xi thought about it and still felt that hurting herself was the only way to see Wuyou and find out what happened in the South Country and what happened when she returned to the Chu Country? Xiao Chuhan didn't talk about the South Country in detail, and almost just glossed over it.

She must meet Wuyou to understand the whole story.

As a killer, Lan Xi knew how to hurt a person in a way that would not only make him suffer but also make him unable to get up. But she couldn't use such a cruel method to hurt herself. Lan Xi thought about it and came up with a way to have the best of both worlds.

Lan Xi knew that Hanyou Garden not only had a variety of flowers, but one of the flowers was poisonous. This flower was not fatal if taken according to the dosage, but it would make people fall into a deep sleep. Even if they took the antidote, it would take several days to wake up.

If Xiao Chuhan found himself and gave himself the antidote, he would have enough time. Lan Xi carefully left the Jingxin Palace and came to Youyuan, where he soon found the poisonous flower.

Lan Xi picked the petals and returned to her bedroom. She poured a glass of water and looked at the petals in her hand. Without any hesitation, she put the petals into her mouth. The petals were bitter and tasteless, so she chewed them up and ate them.

In order to make the poison of the flower take effect as soon as possible, Lan Xi drank a lot of water. After a while, Lan Xi felt dizzy and her abdomen was slightly cramped. Lan Xi got up, walked to the bed, and lay down.

As the poison spread throughout her body, Lan Xi felt severe pain in her abdomen. She grabbed the quilt with her hands and gritted her teeth. This little pain was nothing for a woman who had suffered so many injuries.

As the pain deepened, Lan Xi fainted from the pain. Lan Xi knew that the amount she had eaten would not be fatal, but would only make her body extremely weak for a short time.

Soon, Lan Xi was discovered by Jiuer. Jiuer was shocked when she saw Lan Xi lying on the bed, her face was pale and her forehead was covered with sweat.

"My lady, you...what's wrong with you?"

No matter how Jiuer called out to Lan Xi, Lan Xi did not respond. Jiuer quickly asked the maid to summon the imperial physician.

This matter was soon reported to the emperor. Xiao Chuhan, who was reviewing memorials, heard that Wuyou was in trouble. He immediately put down the memorials in his hand and walked towards Jingxin Palace.

A tense atmosphere permeated the Jingxin Hall. Lan Xi's face was as pale as paper, and she lay powerlessly on the bed, obviously poisoned.

Doctor Li rushed over and surrounded the bed to start emergency treatment. Doctor Li looked serious, with sweat on his forehead. He sometimes discussed the treatment plan in a low voice, and sometimes used acupuncture to accurately apply herbs to Lan Xi's key acupuncture points.

Xiao Chuhan was extremely anxious. He held Wuyou's hands tightly with both hands, frowning, his eyes full of worry and anxiety. His lips trembled slightly, and he kept calling Wuyou's name softly, as if this could bring her strength.

Imperial Doctor Li did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. From time to time, he would stretch out his fingers and place them on Lan Xi's pulse, carefully feeling the faint beat; from time to time, he would use a pen to record the changes in the condition, his movements were quick and steady.

Xiao Chuhan kept pacing back and forth, his steps seemed a little flustered. He stopped from time to time and looked at Wuyou, his eyes full of pain and helplessness.

"Doctor Li, how is the queen?"

Doctor Li walked up to Xiao Chuhan with a serious expression.

"Your Majesty, the Queen must have eaten a poisonous flower."

"Fortunately, the Queen did not take a large dose. I have already given her the antidote."

"Why hasn't the queen woken up yet?"

"Even if the queen takes the antidote, it will take several days for her to wake up."

"Are you sure the Queen is alright?"

"The Queen's poison has been cured. I will prepare some Chinese medicine for her. She will take it every day and she will wake up in a few days."

When Xiao Chuhan heard Doctor Li say that Wuyou would not die, he finally felt relieved.
