In the Huaxi Garden of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ren Jingzhi was getting anxious, "Lin Nan, Lin Bei hasn't come back yet?"

Ren Jingzhi was getting a little impatient. Why hasn't this kid come back yet? He's been out for almost two hours. Nothing will happen, right?

At this moment, the girl's voice came from the door, "Miss, please slow down!"

At this moment, he finally felt relieved. He really didn't know why he was so worried.

Then, Lin Bei was seen carrying a lot of bags and walking towards the side yard, as if that man was his master.

Shen Yiran saw Ren Jingzhi in the yard, looking somewhat lonely. What happened to him? Was he in a bad mood?

Her doctor's instinct made her take a few steps forward and ask, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" She leaned over and put her hand over him, and found that his pulse was steady.

"I'm fine. Have you finished shopping?"

"Yeah." Shen Yiran looked up, and their eyes met.

Ren Jingzhi saw his own shadow in her lively eyes. He quickly withdrew his gaze, his cheeks slightly hot. He had never been in such close contact with a woman before.

He pulled back Shen Yiran's hand that was still holding his pulse, and moved the wheelchair forward twice.

Is he shy? She looked at the man's profile, thinking of the ancient rules that men and women should not touch each other, and laughed.

She put away her original intention of teasing him and said, "No more needles tonight. You continue to take the medicine."

"why?"

Didn't this woman say that she would have acupuncture at night? Why did she change it again?

"Your body is too weak. You just had an injection this morning. You shouldn't have two injections a day."

Shen Yiran wanted to say, "I am running out of energy. I have been taking the Thirteen Needles for two consecutive days. It must be very exhausting, isn't it?"

But she could only keep these words in her heart.

Back in the side yard, Lin Bei and Yun'er had already put everything in order. The girl looked at her brand new bed and was so happy that she touched it here and looked there, like a child.

Yun'er is only thirteen years old, which is a middle school student in modern times. In front of Shen Yiran, who is already twenty-eight years old, she is just a child.

After finishing his work, Lin Bei returned to the main courtyard and saw his master with a resentful look on his face. What was going on with his master?

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

"You seem to be quite happy being busy!" There was a hint of unhappiness in the deep voice.

What the hell is this? Didn't the master himself ask him to protect the Crown Prince's Consort? Where did this anger come from?

But he still smiled and said, "Master, I am doing this just to let the Crown Prince's Consort help you with your treatment."

Ren Jingzhi looked at his flattering smile and said, "Hmph!" He turned around and slid his wheelchair towards the main hall.

Lin Bei trotted a few steps, pushing the wheelchair, and thought as he walked, when did their master start to get emotional?

Shen Yiran's arrival added some life and vitality to the long-silent Huaxiyuan.

On the other side, in the Eastern Palace, after dinner, Crown Prince Yu Gongchen was accompanying his concubine Ning Rouer to appreciate the flowers in the garden.

Suddenly, there was a noise in the front yard, and then the third prince with a pig face walked in, supported by his servants.

"Brother Prince, please save me!" When he saw the prince, Yu Gongxuan burst into tears miserably and told him everything that happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion in the morning.

"Are you saying that she is not dead and she poisoned you?" Yu Gongchen looked at Yu Gongxuan in disbelief and subconsciously clenched his fists. His bent fingers turned white and made a "crackling" sound.

"Ren Jingzhi!" This disabled prince was a stumbling block on his road to imperial power. In order to damage his reputation, he deliberately sent several ministers' daughters to marry him. Unexpectedly, the last princess in the plan would have a flaw.

It must be that old waste Shen Huaiyan, who is always causing trouble instead of doing anything good.

"Yes, you don't know how ugly that woman is, and how cunning she is." As he said this, he quickly lifted up his sleeves, "I don't know what kind of poison she gave me, the doctor can't cure it, I feel pain and itching."

He really couldn't stand it anymore and started scratching without caring about his image.

Yu Gongchen looked carefully at the exposed parts of his body. There were red bumps all over them, as if they had been bitten by mosquitoes. The only difference was that there was a white dot the size of a grain of rice on each red bump.

This problem does not occur with general allergies or insect bites. What kind of poison could this be?

"It hurts so much and it itches!" Yu Gongxuan rolled on the ground in pain.

Looking at his fellow royal brother groaning in pain on the ground, he stepped forward and quickly pressed his sleep point.

He ordered the servant to help Yu Gongxuan into the guest room.

"Rou'er, go back to your room first. I have something to do."

"Brother Chen, it's important to deal with things, don't worry about Rouer." She replied softly with a faint smile on her face.

Ning Gongchen glanced at her with disapproval, then quickly walked towards the study with his personal attendant Bai Yi.

The moment the prince turned and left, the smile on her face disappeared instantly, replaced by a sinister and vicious look.

That bitch Ning Yingying, relying on the fact that she was a legitimate daughter and loved by her grandmother, had always been superior to her since she was a child, and now she had snatched away her position as the Crown Princess.

Even though she and Brother Chen had been childhood sweethearts, she could only be a concubine. Thinking of this, her nails had already pierced deeply into her palms.

One day, she will make this bitch disgraced and die a miserable death!

"Greetings, Your Highness. What instructions do you have for me?" In the prince's study, a middle-aged man respectfully greeted Ning Gongchen.

"Uncle Li, please follow me to the guest room and feel the pulse of the third prince." The man called Uncle Li followed carefully behind.

The study was not far from the guest room, separated only by a long corridor. They arrived there in less than half a cup of tea.

Uncle Li carefully examined Ning Gongxuan's condition, his face a little serious, and then took his pulse.

"Your Highness, the Third Prince has indeed been poisoned."

"What's the poison? Can it be cured?"

"Looking at the symptoms, it seems... like he was poisoned by the itchy caterpillar fungus, but judging from the pulse, there is another poison as well. The two are mixed together, and I can't cure them."

This diagnosis gave Yu Gongchen a bad feeling. Could it be that the surviving concubine of the prince was a master of poison? Otherwise, how could she survive the wedding night? But the poison was given by Uncle Li, and it had never failed.

What's the problem?

"This poison won't kill you, but it's very torturous. If you don't take medication to relieve it, it will heal on its own after a month."

Knowing that this poison would not kill him, he felt relieved. "What medicine can I use to relieve the symptoms?"

"We can only use medicine to make the Third Prince sleep, and keep him awake for one or two hours a day to eat."

"Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Li to prescribe a prescription."

"This is what I should do. I will write it down right away."

Yu Gongchen still asked the question in his heart, "Uncle Li, the poison you gave to Chongxi Crown Prince's Consort, can anyone else cure it?"

Uncle Li, who was writing a prescription, stopped writing abruptly when he heard this. Looking at Uncle Li who was puzzled, he told him that Shen Yiran was still alive.

"This medicine is a secret recipe passed down from my Li family. No outsider has ever been able to decipher it."

He suddenly thought of something, "When I was young, I heard my ancestor say that if a person who takes poison has another poison in his body, the two poisons will counteract each other, and the effect of the poison will be greatly reduced."

Yu Gongchen actually hoped it was the latter. If it was as he had previously speculated, dealing with the disabled prince would be a tricky task.

He will have to meet with Shen Huaiyan another day to find out whether there are other toxins in Shen Yiran's body.

After seeing Uncle Li off, he wanted to go back to the study to handle some official business. "Brother Chen, you must be hungry. Rou'er has prepared dessert for you in the room."

Ning Rouer took two steps forward and came to the side of the prince. She stretched out her slender, snow-white hands and held his arms. Yu Gongchen had no resistance at all against this childhood sweetheart and concubine.

"Okay." The man's low voice was full of doting, and he held her in his arms.
