The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

"Has the Emperor's uncle been with Miss Lu for so long that he even learned how to read faces?" The prince couldn't help but make a joke.

"How can I have Aling's ability?" Zhou Shiyue said after thinking it over.

Upon hearing this, the prince felt an indescribable envy in his heart. He didn't know whether it was because his uncle had someone like Lu Zhaoling by his side, or because he envied the fact that Lu Zhaoling was valued and trusted by his uncle.

When the emperor's uncle spoke of her like this, he really sounded very proud and proud.

It must be a very happy thing to have a wife like this.

"The auspicious date for the king has been set, June 26th." Zhou Shiyue said to the prince, "So you can prepare the gifts."

The prince was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Congratulations, uncle."

"I will definitely choose the gift carefully," the prince asked, "If it is for the imperial aunt, will the imperial uncle be unhappy?"

"Picked it specifically for her?" Zhou Shiyue glanced at him, then said, "I don't mind."

It’s also fine to select one specifically for Lu Xiaoer.

Anyway, Lu Xiaoer is more greedy for money than him, but he has everything he needs.

However, he always felt that it was a bit strange that the prince asked this question specifically.

"By the way," he put aside the strangeness and asked the purpose of coming to the East Palace, "Have you seen the little grandson of the emperor?"

"Dong'er? I've met him," the prince said with a slight smile, "He's a very likable child."

"Uncle, I didn't expect Lu Zhaoyun to give birth to such a lovely child for Zhou Ling..."

So, Zhou Ze also likes that child.

Zhou Shiyue found it even more strange.

He chatted with the prince some more here and waited for the assistant doctor to enter the palace.

When the assistant doctor heard that it was the Prince of Jin who had ordered him to enter the palace for the prince, he did not delay for a moment and rushed into the palace.

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Your Majesty, why didn't you send someone to the Fu family to tell us when you returned to the capital?" Doctor Fu had been waiting for two days. "Without your message, I dare not go to see Miss Lu."

"Do you want to see me or her?" Zhou Shiyue glanced at him.

"The prince must be always with Miss Lu. There is no difference, no difference." said the old doctor.

I understand. This means he wants to see Lu Zhaoling, and he is just here by chance.

"Okay, come out of the palace with me later."

"Show it to the prince quickly."

Doctor Fu then began to examine the patient.

Zhou Shiyue was waiting nearby.

"Your Highness, please have some tea." A palace maid came over with a teacup, lowered her head beside Zhou Shiyue, and carefully served him hot tea.

There is a faint fragrance.

Zhou Shiyue raised his eyelids and glanced at the palace maid.

This is obviously the outfit of a senior palace maid.

This palace maid looked unfamiliar.

Of course, he had been away from the capital for a year and a half, so it was not surprising that a new chief maid had come to the Eastern Palace.

In the past, the emperor didn’t like people who stayed too long around the prince or had too good a relationship with him.

The prince's nanny had been replaced several times, and the senior palace maids around him had also been replaced several times in the past few years.

However, there was a senior palace maid who was kept all the time. However, that maid became seriously ill one time and could not speak after she was rescued, so she just quietly cleaned the prince's bedroom.

The senior palace maid was named Shuiyue.

In the past, every time Zhou Shiyue came to the East Palace, Shuiyue would serve him tea. Shuiyue could not speak, but just quietly brought the tea, put it down, and stepped back. The whole process was very quiet.

Now suddenly a new palace maid came over to serve tea and spoke to him, so Zhou Shiyue naturally took a closer look.

When he looked over, the maid bowed slightly, lowered her head while holding the tray, and said in a low voice, "I am outside the palace. Your Majesty, please tell me if you have anything to say."

Although she took a few steps back and walked out of the hall after she finished speaking, Zhou Shiyue still frowned.

When the palace maid said one more word, he smelled the faint fragrance again.

It was normal for palace maids to have sachets on their bodies.

However, Zhou Shiyue is a very cautious person and will first doubt and analyze any changes.

The talisman on his body did not move.

So, there shouldn't be any danger.

He looked towards the prince, and saw the assistant doctor stroking his beard, thinking about something.

Could it be that even the assistant doctor can’t diagnose anything?

Zhou Shiyue looked at the cup of tea next to him again.

He took out a handkerchief from his bosom, dipped it into the tea, and made it a little wet.

He held the handkerchief in his hand, stood up and walked towards the prince.

"Fu Lao, how is it?"

The assistant doctor came back to his senses, sighed, and looked at Zhou Shiyue with a serious expression.

"Just say it." Zhou Shiyue said.

The prince also looked at the assistant doctor.

Obviously, the assistant doctor had come to a conclusion, but it was hard to say. His heart sank slightly.

Could it be that even though he is so cautious now, he would still fall into the trap?

"His Royal Highness has been poisoned."

Sure enough, the assistant doctor said this.

His tone was very certain, which meant that he had already made a diagnosis, and it was not a diagnosis that he was still unsure of.

And with the assistant doctor's medical skills, he has already been so sure that this diagnosis will generally not be wrong.

"What poison?"

Zhou Shiyue and the prince's uncle and nephew behaved equally calmly.

"It is still unclear what kind of poison it is, but it should not be a deadly poison. This poison is extremely mild. Not only will it not endanger life, it won't even cause pain or any other discomfort."

"So, this poison only made the prince lose some of his strength?" Zhou Shiyue asked.

"It seems so now. There is nothing wrong with the Crown Prince's body. It's just that his blood flow is slower than before, and his pulse is not as strong as before."

"I can diagnose it now because I have taken the pulse of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince several times before. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an extraordinary status, so I will remember the pulse of His Royal Highness very well."

"The Crown Prince's pulse was almost the same in previous times, so I remember it better. This time, I can tell if there is a difference."

The assistant doctor said, "If we change to another imperial physician, or if he doesn't remember your highness' pulse, I'm afraid it will be difficult to diagnose it."

Therefore, this poison was extremely covert.

I guess no one except the assistant doctor can diagnose it.

The prince didn't have any other symptoms, so if it continued like this, no one would notice.

"What will be the consequences if the poison continues to spread?" Zhou Shiyue asked.

"That's not certain yet. I have to go back and think about it carefully and study how to detoxify it."

The prince paused and asked, "Doctor Fu means that the poison cannot be removed now?"

The assistant doctor nodded solemnly.

"Yes."

Even the assistant doctor was unable to detoxify it for the time being.

The prince looked at Zhou Shiyue, "Uncle, this matter..."

"I will go out of the palace and ask again for you."

Zhou Shiyue raised his chin towards the outside of the palace and asked, "Who sent the new maid here?"
