Su Xuewei's personal maid Xiao He seemed to remember something, walked forward, knelt down and cried.

"I am guilty. The Second Young Lady wanted to touch up her makeup for the banquet today, but I couldn't find her powder in the carriage. It was Yuzhu, the maidservant beside the First Young Lady, who gave me a box of perfumed powder for the Second Young Lady to use first. That box of perfumed powder must have been tampered with."

Upon hearing this, Su Xuewei's expression became even more angry. She raised her hand and wanted to grab Su Yuejian's face, without any of her usual gentleness.

"Su Yuejian! It's you! How dare you poison me!"

Qinglan stopped her.

Qiao also turned around and cried with a look of shock.

"Yue'er, how can you be so jealous and vicious? Can't you just stand Wei'er?"

Father Su's frown deepened.

There was disbelief in his eyes as he looked at Su Yuejian.

"Yue'er, is this true?"

Su Yue saw a confused look on his face and said softly.

"Daddy, Yue'er did ask Yuzhu to give sister Wei'er a box of perfume powder."

Su Xuewei immediately burst into tears and began to cry, pulling at the corner of her father's clothes.

"Daddy, she is of humble origin, yet she has such a vicious mind that she deliberately wants to destroy my daughter's appearance."

"Master...you have to make the decision for our Wei'er."

Qiao followed up.

Su Yuejian sneered in his heart.

"Don't talk nonsense. Yue'er is not that kind of person. Maybe the maidservant beside you got into trouble."

Su Yanzhou retorted.

Xiao Heng raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.

Noisy.

He really wanted to kill these two vicious women with one blow, but unfortunately...

He glanced at Su Yuejian, worried that she wasn't having enough fun.

He spoke calmly, "Today's matter is Taifu Su's family affair, so I cannot interfere. However, this is a matter concerning the reputation of the mansion, and we cannot just listen to one side of the story when judging a case. How about asking a doctor to come and diagnose the second young lady first? What do you think, Taifu?"

Father Su nodded.

"Your Majesty is right."

Father Su turned to look at the servant, wanting him to go out and call a doctor.

Xiao Heng spoke first.

"This king happens to know a doctor, Xuanfeng, who will go and invite Qi Yuan."

The young man driving the car stepped forward, took orders, saluted, and then disappeared.

Father Su was shocked.

Qi Yuan?

He is the heir of Yigu, the only descendant of the Qi family, who have been practicing medicine for generations. Qi Yuan is very talented and has superb medical skills at a young age. He is famous and is a well-known miracle doctor in Tianjin.

Su Yanzhou also looked at the Regent with a complicated look in his eyes.

Su Xuewei felt relieved. It seemed that the Regent treated Su Yuejian just like this. Once her evil intentions were confirmed, who would still want such an ugly woman like her?

Not long after, Xuanfeng came in leading a tall man wearing a bamboo green brocade robe.

"I, a humble commoner, pay my respects to the Regent, His Excellency the Grand Tutor."

Qi Yuan straightened his messy clothes and bowed.

He was collecting herbs in the palace when Xuanfeng suddenly appeared and carried him away without saying a word.

Thinking of this, he gave Xuanfeng a cold look.

He is such a taciturn guy. He never said anything along the way. My waist is about to be broken by him, but he still looks confused.

There are noble ladies kneeling on the ground, and there is a corpse outside. What are they doing?

Qi Yuan looked at Xiao Heng in confusion.

Father Su stood up, pointed at Su Xuewei and said

"Dr. Qi, you are so kind. My daughter is not feeling well, so I would like to ask Dr. Qi to help me with the diagnosis."

Qi Yuan nodded.

Qi Yuan stepped forward to check Su Xuewei's pulse and then looked at her face.

He frowned.

"Miraculous doctor... this..."

Qiao looked anxious.

Qi Yuan withdrew his hand and spoke slowly.

"The young lady's pulse is normal."

"No difference? Then why is Wei'er's face..."

Father Su asked in confusion.

"The lady's face looks like she has an allergic reaction to poisoning."

"Poisoned? Is there a cure?"

It turned out to be poisoning. Father Su was shocked and looked at Su Yuejian with disappointment in his eyes.

"We need to first see what the young lady has used or touched recently before making a diagnosis."

Su Xuewei cried miserably, with a vicious look in her eyes.

Qiao was secretly resentful.

It turned out to be this little bitch who did it. She even dared to poison my son.

"Xiao He, is that box of perfume powder here?"

Su Xuewei asked.

Xiao He took out a cloud-patterned powder box from her arms and handed it to Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan opened the box and a rich fragrance hit him.

He examined it carefully and nodded.

"This powder contains a large amount of poinsettia powder and red beetle powder, both of which can cause skin redness, swelling and allergies. Long-term use can also cause skin ulcers and sores."

Qiao was instantly panicked, and the corners of her mouth trembled slightly.

How could it be poinsettias and red beetles...

It was obviously her who gave...

Qiao clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves and pretended to be calm.

Su Xuewei was also stunned for a moment.

Poinsettias and red beetles?

Father Su looked at Su Yuejian with a face full of heartache.

"At this point, what else do you have to say?"

Su Yanzhou was also unwilling to believe it, but what Doctor Qi said should not be wrong.

Su Yuejian fell to her knees.

His face was filled with shock and disbelief, tears streaming down his face.

"Daddy, I'm innocent! Yuzhu gave Xiaohe the perfume powder she uses every day. How could she have poisoned her?"

Yuzhu also knelt down.

"Master, these are the cosmetics that the young lady uses every day. If you don't believe me, you can take the ones on her dressing table to verify it."

"Father, go ahead and investigate. If Yue'er tells any lies, I will punish you."

Su Yuejian raised his hand and swore with a firm tone.

But Father Su couldn't listen at all at this time. His face was ashen, his chest was heaving, and his eyes were full of anger.

"Master Su, I don't think Miss Su is a sinister person, so we should listen to her."

Xiao Heng spoke slowly.

"Qinglan, go get it."

Father Su calmed himself down and spoke sternly.

Qiao opened her mouth and wanted to speak out to stop him, but she was in a difficult situation and had to swallow it back.

Soon, Qinglan came in with a tray of rouge and powder.

After paying his respects, he placed it on Qi Yuan's desk.

Qi Yuan opened them one by one and checked them, his brows frowning more and more.

He put down the last rouge box with a serious expression.

He stood up and walked in front of Su Yuejian, bending down and staring at her face carefully.

"cough……"

Xiao Heng covered his lips with his fist and coughed lightly.

Qi Yuan turned around and saw that he had a strange expression on his face.

The prince is really strange today.

Qi Yuan said seriously.

"All of these rouges and powders are mixed with a sufficient amount of poinsettia and red beetles. And..."

Father Su was shocked and grabbed the corner of the table tightly.

"And what?"

"And judging by this young lady's face, she must have been using these poison-laced cosmetics for years. Perhaps she doesn't use them often. With this dosage, her face should have been ulcerated and festering, unrecognizable."

Father Su was stunned and stood there motionless.

Su Yanzhou was also greatly shocked.

Doesn’t Yue’er have a skin disease? Is she poisoned?!

"The person who poisoned me is very insidious. I can't detect any abnormality with this poison by taking my pulse."

Qi Yuan continued.

Xiao Heng's face was so dark that it looked like ink was dripping out. His usually cold expression was now stained with anger. He was full of hostility and looked at Qiao as if she were a dead object.

Qi Yuan keenly sensed his murderous intent.

This is surprising.

Xiao Heng, who has always been cold-hearted, actually got angry for a woman?

Qi Yuan couldn't help but look at Su Yuejian a few more times.
