Chu Qianyu twisted the handkerchief in her hands, pursed her lips into a straight line, and tears dripped onto the ground drop by drop.

"But if you really did that, why was the poison still in your body yesterday? Are you lying to your father?" Chu Jun still didn't want to believe that this was true.

"My daughter didn't know why either. Afterwards, the Regent said he would be responsible for her and then arranged for a carriage to take her back."

"But my daughter's body was still sore and weak. It seemed that the poison had not been removed at all. Later, my daughter took a cold shower and gave herself acupuncture to remove the poison. Only then did she feel better. Otherwise, my daughter wouldn't be so anxious."

"Then why didn't you say it earlier yesterday!" Chu Jun said angrily.

Chu Qianyu was frightened by his sudden shout and shivered all over. Then she sobbed and said, "I am afraid of disappointing my father. I am a little anxious because I see that my father is going to test the regent."

Chu Jun closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He opened his eyes and looked at Chu Qianyu's current state. He clenched his fists. He was so angry but didn't know how to vent it.

After all, this matter cannot be blamed on Qianqian. If Xiaozhu hadn't had such dirty thoughts, Qianqian wouldn't have encountered this matter.

Finally, he suppressed his anger, looked at her and said, "Don't let your mother know about this. Your father will take care of it." After saying that, he flicked his sleeves, turned around and left.

Chu Qianyu looked at Chu Jun's leaving figure, a triumphant smile appearing on the corner of her mouth.

Then she took out a handkerchief, wiped her tears, and walked towards her courtyard.

As soon as he returned to the yard and entered the room, he felt something was a little wrong, so Chu Qianyu asked Shao Ying and the other person to go out.

Sure enough, a man in black came out not long after.

Chu Qianyu was full of questions...

The person Mo Yinan sent to investigate secretly has turned over a new leaf?

But she still had to pretend to be scared and backed away. She picked up a teacup from the table and pointed at the man with trembling hands and asked, "Who...who are you?"

"Don't be afraid, Miss Chu. We are sent by the Regent to protect you." The man in black took a step back and said respectfully.

Chu Qianyu heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this, and slowly put down the cup in her hand, but she was still a little nervous and asked, "Why do you want to protect me? Is there anyone who wants to hurt me?"

"It's for your safety. There's one more thing. The Regent asked you to boil this thing and drink it." After the man in black said this, he took out a package from his arms and placed it on the table next to him.

"What is this?" Chu Qianyu asked puzzled.

The man in black was a little embarrassed. After a long while, he lowered his head and whispered, "It's a medicine that won't make a woman pregnant. I've already delivered it, so I'll leave first."

But in the blink of an eye, the man in black disappeared.

Chu Qianyu stood up straight, walked to the table, picked up the package of medicine, and whispered to himself: "It seems that you really don't like me at all. Otherwise, why would you send this thing."

Then she shook her head and snorted coldly, and said with a firm and confident look: "There is nothing I cannot get."

Shuang Ning heard the voice, opened the door and walked in slowly, saying, "Miss."

Chu Qianyu threw the medicine over and said, "Take it and boil it."

At Cuihua Residence, the old lady looked at Aunt Liu and repeated what she had just said: "Are you saying that the Prince Regent is here to ask for Qianyu to be his Princess Regent?"

"Yes, I just heard the regent say it at the door. His expression didn't look like he was lying."

The old lady leaned back a little, picked up the tea beside her and took a sip, thinking for a while, her face was full of smiles, and there was a gleam in her eyes.

"Then the Prince Regent is not bad. He holds great power now. He is second only to the emperor and above everyone else. And according to Qianyu's personality, she might be an unpopular concubine even if she enters the palace. But if she is the Princess Regent, it would not be bad."

"By the way, has the master agreed?"

Madam Liu shook her head and said, "The master said he needs to think about it. And right after the Regent left, the master went to see the Madam. I think he needs to discuss it with the Madam before making a decision."

After hearing this, the old lady put the cup heavily on the table, snorted coldly and said with displeasure: "I don't know why Jun'er likes Yunying! When Wang Man was still here, there would be no such terrible things."

"And I heard that she is in good shape now, right?"

"Replying to the old lady, the young lady has been giving her acupuncture and nursing her these days. I heard from the people in the madam's courtyard that her complexion is much better now than before."

"Master, have you been visiting her almost every day these days?"

"That's right. She stays with me almost every night. But the lady doesn't seem to pay much attention to the master. She is still very cold."

When the old lady heard this, she slammed the table and said angrily, "You really gave her face! Which master would please the mistress every day like ours does? Go to Bishuiyunju and tell her that now that she is well, she should come to pay her respects to me every morning."

"Yes, I'll go right away." After agreeing, Nanny Liu quickly went to the yard where Yunying was.

Yunying had just laid down when she heard someone coming outside.

"Madam is resting now. I wonder if Madam Liu came here for something important?" Huilan said.

Madam Liu smiled and said, "I just came here to pass on a message. The old lady said that since Madam is well again, she should go to Cuihuaju every morning to pay respects from tomorrow onwards."

After hearing this, Huilan said with some difficulty: "Although the madam is in good health, she can't stand the torment of going there every morning."

"But this is the old lady's instruction, and we servants just have to pass it on. Now that I have finished speaking, I will leave first." After saying this, Madam Liu quickly turned around and left.

Huilan was standing outside, feeling very angry.

Isn't this old lady just looking for trouble?

"Huilan, what's going on outside?" Yunying asked, half-sitting up.

Huilan gently opened the door and said, "Madam, the old lady just sent someone to tell you to go and pay your respects to her every day starting tomorrow. Isn't this embarrassing? Although you look better than before, you are still not fully recovered inside."

After hearing this, Yunying lay back down and said softly, "It's okay. If she asked you to go, then go. It's okay. I'm tired, so I'll take a rest first."

"Okay." Huilan agreed and closed the door.

Then he looked at Ruixiang beside him and whispered, "Go tell the young lady."

It didn't take long for Chu Qianyu to know that the old lady asked Yunying to pay her respects every day in the future.

Regent's Palace.

An Yi watched Chu Qianyu drink the bowl of medicine in secret, then hurried back to the palace to report.

Mo Yinan leaned back in his chair, his hands on the table, tapping his fingers, and asked with a frivolous look in his eyes, "Are you saying that she drank the medicine without any hesitation?"

"Yes, after I put the medicine down, I saw Miss Chu asking the maid to boil the medicine. I saw her drink it herself, so I came to report."

"It's interesting." Mo Yinan murmured in a low voice. If another woman lost her virginity and was asked to drink this, she would probably be sad.

"But I discovered one more thing."

"Oh? You said."

"Miss Chu told General Chu everything about you and me after you left the general's mansion. I saw General Chu leave angrily afterwards." After An Yi finished speaking, he lowered his head and looked at his toes, his expression becoming a little nervous.

Mo Yinan paused, frowned slightly, and asked after a while: "Did you hear what was said clearly?"

"General Chu originally wanted to test the waters again, thinking that it was a little strange for you to suddenly marry Miss Chu. But Miss Chu seemed a little anxious. She must be interested in you. So she told General Chu everything, mainly because she wanted to marry you as soon as possible..."
