When everything was done, it was already dark. Xun asked Mi You to stay in the general's mansion for a few days, and Milan and Mi Mo went back.

Mi Yao was tired after a busy day and went to bed early.

The next day, before Mi Yao woke up, Chunhua came running and knocked on the door. Although she was a little restrained, one could still tell that she was anxious.

Zhan Xiao quickly put on his clothes and opened the door to come out.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Zhan Xiao knew that Chunhua and Qiushi were both from Xiaoyao Pavilion and were absolutely loyal to Mi Yao. They always put their master first in everything. If it wasn't for a big matter, Chunhua wouldn't be so reckless.

"My dear son-in-law, the news from the palace is that the fifth prince, Marquis Xuanyuan, has been poisoned and is in danger of death. All the doctors from the Imperial Hospital have gone to the palace, and even those who are on leave at home have been called in." Chunhua said with her head down.

Zhan Xiao's heart trembled. The life and death of others had nothing to do with him. The key point was that Xuanyuan Hou was valued by Yao'er and he wanted to push him to that position, so he couldn't just stand by and watch.

"Okay, I understand." Zhan Xiao returned to the room and saw Mi Yao trying to turn over but her movements were a bit clumsy. Zhan Xiao hurried over to help.

"Axiao, you're up!" Mi Yao opened her eyes and saw that Zhan Xiao was dressed.

"Sleep a little longer!" Zhan Xiao covered Mi Yao with a blanket.

"I heard someone knocking on the door just now. It was Chunhua, right?" Mi Mo stretched.

"Well, the news just came out from the palace is that Marquis Xuanyuan has been poisoned, and all the imperial doctors have entered the palace." Zhan Xiao helped Mi Yao up.

"So useless!" Mi Yao heard it, thinking that it was a waste of time that she prepared so many good things for him, but her eyes lit up after she said that.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" asked Zhan Xiao.

"I prepared a lot of self-defense items for Xuanyuan Hou. Now that he is poisoned, he must have done it on purpose, using himself as bait to lure out the mastermind behind the scenes." Mi Yao understood after thinking about it carefully.

"This Xuanyuan Hou never notifies us in advance before doing anything." Zhan Xiao felt sorry for his wife, and she was so upset by the news.

"Maybe it happened suddenly and he himself didn't expect it. Since he did this, we should cooperate with him." Mi Yao yawned twice again and then put on his clothes.

After everything was dressed, Mi Yao asked Chunhua to come in and told her some things, and Chunhua immediately went downstairs to arrange them.

"Everything is arranged!" Zhan Xiao brought a tray full of breakfast.

"Well, I've watched too many palace fighting dramas, so this little trick is nothing at all." Mi Yao said with a smile.

Zhan Xiao thought of the palace fighting dramas that he often watched with Mi Yao. It’s true, he had watched this kind of plot several times and it was no longer fresh to him.

The wisdom of modern people can clearly and thoroughly analyze the little thoughts of the ancients.

"Master, the doorman reported that a young man named Jian is here to visit." Qiu Shi came in to report.

"Jane? Jian Ye?" Mi Yao suddenly remembered that she hadn't been to Dexin Medical Clinic for a few days. Logically, Jian Ye's wounds should have healed by now.

"Let the guests go to the reception room, I'll be there soon." Mi Yao stood up.

"Don't eat anymore." Zhan Xiao was a little unhappy. There was always someone disturbing his wife when she was sleeping or eating.

"I'm full. I'll eat when I'm hungry." Mi Yao knew how much Zhan Xiao cared about her, so she was in a good mood seeing him being a little bit petty.

Zhan Xiao helped Mi Yao to the reception room.

The person who came was indeed Jian Ye, and Huang Shuyao was beside him.

"Greetings, General Zhan and Doctor Mi." Jian Ye clasped his fists.

"You're welcome, please sit down." Mi Yao sat down.

Someone brought tea and cakes.

"Doctor Mi, I apologize for disturbing you without permission." Jian Ye bowed again.

"It's okay. I've been busy these days and I've been feeling heavy, so I didn't go to Dexin Medical Clinic. I see that your wound has healed well and you can go home." Mi Yao examined him carefully.

"I came here today to ask Dr. Mi to see me. My mother wrote to me yesterday saying that there were some things at home that she wanted me to deal with, so I have to go home today." Jian Ye said.

“Well, you need to eat a light diet in the near future after you go back. You will be able to return to normal in half a month.” Mi Yao said.

"Jian Ye has made a note of this. This is the medical fee promised to Dr. Mi." Jian Ye placed a small box on the table.

Mi Yao nodded.

"Dr. Mi, I will never forget your kindness. If you can help me in the future, please just ask." Jian Ye said sincerely.

"Okay." Mi Yao didn't say much.

"Then Jian Ye will take his leave now." Jian Ye stood up.

"Sister Yao, Aye and I will go together. We will tell you in detail when we have time." Huang Shuyao bowed and left with Jian Ye.

Mi Yao smiled. She had noticed that there was something going on between the two of them, and it turned out to be true.

"Aren't you going to work today?" Mi Yao looked at the man drinking tea next to her.

"No hurry, I'll take you back to the yard and then leave." Zhan Xiao put down the teacup.

"Okay, let's go back then." Mi Yao felt amused when she saw Zhan Xiao's pretentious look. It's not like she had given birth to twins before, so it shouldn't be like this.

At night, news came from the palace that the fifth prince was poisoned. After the imperial hospital's strenuous treatment, the poison was cured. Later, after investigation, it was found that someone had poisoned the fifth prince's food. The poisoner was a cook in the fifth prince's palace, who was bribed. As soon as the cook uttered the word "two", he was hit by an arrow that suddenly shot him in the head and killed him on the spot.

The emperor had not expected the matter to be so serious. Now killers and assassins dared to kill people in the palace in broad daylight. This was obviously a challenge to his imperial dignity, so he ordered a thorough investigation.

In fact, when the chef said "two", the emperor had a guess that "two" naturally represented the second prince.

Sure enough, after some investigation, it was concluded that the Second Prince had bribed the cook and wanted the Fifth Prince to die.

In a rage, the emperor placed the second prince under house arrest in his own palace. The empress, as his mother, was at fault for not teaching him well enough, so she confined him to his room for three months.

Xuanyuan Hou, who was lying on the hospital bed, was obviously dissatisfied when he heard the result of the punishment. However, it would not work to use this incident to eradicate the Wang family's complicated influence.

Xuanyuan Hou continued to plan.

Mi Yao ordered Xiaoyao Pavilion to fully cooperate. Half a month later, one of Prime Minister Wang's two sons was investigated for accepting bribes, and the other one had a collision with the concubine's mistress while staying overnight at the concubine's house. The two sides fought each other, and finally Prime Minister Wang's son was accidentally killed by the other side.

Overnight, Prime Minister Wang lost his two sons, and Queen Wang and the second prince lost their two right-hand men.

Xuanyuan Hou knew that it was Mi Mo who was helping him. While he was grateful, he was also busy.

Another half month later, Queen Wang's personal maid and guard were caught in an affair by the night patrol guards. This incident alarmed the emperor, who made an example of the maid and the guard and directly punished them.

In the days that followed, one of Queen Wang's followers was caught every few days, which made Queen Wang and Prime Minister Wang very distressed.

In Prince Gong's Mansion, all the masters were in the Tingyuxuan courtyard, and Mi Yao's painful voice could be heard from the room from time to time.

Xun also came. Han Zhen was afraid that her bad mood would affect the fetus, so he kept comforting her. Xun felt sorry for Mi Yao and tears kept falling.
