Jiang Jiu suddenly stopped, and the maid Chunhua behind him also clenched her fists nervously.

Then Su Rui's maid said, "I'm afraid that during this period, the young lady won't be able to ask the princess out. I heard that the princess sends Nanny Xing to ask about the princess's diet three times a day. She really values her."

Su Rui angrily slammed the comb on the table.

"Why? I am her granddaughter. Besides, I will marry into the Prince of Qi's mansion soon. She should be on my side. If Su Man dies, I will become the princess. Why doesn't grandma help me..."

The maidservant hushed softly, "Miss, it's not that the princess won't help you, but I'm afraid that before you can marry into the Prince of Qi's mansion, the Prince of Qi will be gone..."

"Ah? What? What's going on?" Su Rui was obviously shocked.

Her maidservant lowered her voice and said, "I also heard it a few days ago when I went to see my mother. She said that the princess had given the King of Qi a poison called Hehuan poison."

"Albizia julibrissin poison? What kind of poison is it?" Su Rui didn't know.

The maid said, "The poison wasn't put into Prince Qi's mansion. It was put into Miss Man's body ahead of time. Once she and Prince Qi have sex, the poison will rush to Prince Qi's internal organs. The key is that this poison is silent and even doctors can't detect it."

Su Rui was shocked: "If the King of Qi dies, how can I marry him?"

The maid said, "There is an antidote for this poison."

Su Rui breathed a sigh of relief: "What is the antidote? When I get married in the future, I will bring it with me. Then the prince will surely fall in love with me."

The maid said, "It seems to be something purple or river-colored. They say it's related to the princess's pregnancy."

Su Rui was simple-minded. Upon hearing this, she asked, "Grandmother, why did you poison him? Did Grandmother want to kill the Prince of Qi? If so, why did you agree to let me marry into the palace?"

The maid thought for a moment and said, "I don't know about this either. Anyway, I heard that the princess and the King of Qi are not on good terms. If it weren't for the emperor's order to let Miss Man get married, the princess wouldn't have become the prince's in-law."

Su Rui was anxious: "If the prince really dies, what will happen to my marriage?"

The maid shook her head and said, "It's possible that I misheard you. Why don't you ask the Madam? She loves you the most."

Su Rui was simple-minded: "Okay, I'll ask Mom after we go out together..."

Jiang Jiu took Chunhua and quietly went back from the side.

Su Rui didn't know the names of those herbs, but Jiang Jiu did.

After following Chu Yu for a long time, she more or less understood a little bit.

It turns out that the poison that Zhao Zhuoxi was infected with was injected into the original owner's body.

It seems that the Sixth Prince Zhao Zhuoran had already made preparations for both scenarios.

One is to control Jiang Jiu's soul and revive him.

One is to control Su Man and poison Zhao Zhuoxi.

Knowing that Jiang Jiu is Zhao Zhuoxi's weak point, once Jiang Jiu is controlled, Zhao Zhuoxi will definitely hand over the throne.

If something unexpected happened, Zhao Zhuoxi would be poisoned to death.

However, there is an antidote to this poison.

Placenta can be used as medicine to detoxify and cure diseases.

Thinking about Zhao Zhuoxi coughing up blood due to poisoning, and even Chu Yu couldn't find the source, it can be imagined that this poison is actually very remote.

Jiang Jiu touched her belly. Using her child as medicine was really cruel.

Even if Zhao Zhuoxi knew about the antidote, she would not let her use it.

Medical technology was not well developed in ancient times, and a miscarriage could be fatal.

What's more, Jiang Jiu is just a resurrection from the dead, and his soul may be unstable.

Therefore, Zhao Zhuoxi would definitely not take this risk.

As for why he agreed to let Zhao Zhuoxi marry Su Rui, it was probably to cover up the truth.

She was willing to marry her own granddaughter to the King of Qi, so how could she be the murderer who killed him?

But in fact, Zhao Zhuoxi might not even live to see the day when he marries Su Rui.

It is September now. According to the time calculation, Suman got married in May.

Half a month after Su Man got married, he found out that Su Man was Jiang Jiu, and the two of them consummated their marriage.

If the marriage had not been consummated, Zhao Zhuoxi might not have been poisoned.

If the marriage is not consummated, Zhao Zhuoxi will definitely still be immersed in the sadness of losing Jiang Jiu, and it will not cause any harm to Zhao Zhuoran.

But once the marriage is consummated, Zhao Zhuoxi will definitely discover Jiang Jiu's resurrection, and Zhao Zhuoxi will definitely be poisoned.

If the poison cannot be detected, Zhao Zhuoxi will vomit blood and die.

No signs of poisoning were found.

Perhaps it will be discovered after death. By then, when the Sixth Prince tells Jiang Jiu that the antidote is placenta, it is not certain whether Jiang Jiu can survive.

It is a great regret not to save someone when you can.

Or maybe Zhao Zhuoran told Jiang Jiu that the antidote to save Zhao Zhuoxi is her child.

According to Jiang Jiu's personality, he would save the child even if he lost him.

By then, Jiang Jiu will be dead.

If Jiang Jiu died, Zhao Zhuoxi would not be able to survive.

No matter how I think about it, it's a dead end.

It was the Sixth Prince Zhao Zhuoran and Princess Zhaoyang, or the Emperor himself, who set up this death trap.

A little maid knew so much that Jiang Jiu even suspected that she had heard it on purpose.

However, now that Jiang Jiu knew about it, he was determined to break this deadlock.

After packing up, Jiang Jiu took Chunhua and Qiuyue and planned to go out. He met Su Rui and held Su Rui's hand affectionately.

The two of them sat together in the carriage.

Su Rui originally wanted to go with Madam Su and ask some questions, but seeing that Su Man kept pulling her, Su Rui felt helpless.

However, Su Rui also has her own little thoughts.

The two of them came to a teahouse in the capital, which was where Su Rui and Zhao Zhuoxi often met.

But this time, Zhao Zhuoxi did not show up.

Jiang Jiu glanced at the rouge shop opposite the teahouse, where the shopkeeper, Jiao Niu Jiao, was sitting there counting the bills.

"Rui'er, I want to buy a box of rouge, do you want to come with me?"

Su Rui shook her head: "I just bought it..."

Jiang Jiu brought Chunhua to the rouge shop and quietly handed a note to Jiao Niang. Jiao Niang was slightly startled, but still accepted it.

Jiang Jiu came back with a few boxes of rouge.

Jiao Niang saw the words written on the paper: Let Nishang come to the princess's mansion to find me.

Everyone knows that Su Man is the Princess of Qi.

The message can be delivered through Jiao Niang, and only Jiang Jiu knows it. Moreover, the handwriting is clearly Jiang Jiu's.

Jiao Niang looked up at the Princess of Qi on the second floor, saw her with the young lady from the princess's mansion, and stood up and walked out.

I went straight to Huamanlou and found Nishang.

When Nichang opened it, she saw that the handwriting was clearly Jiang Jiu's.

"What's going on? Why do you want me to go find the princess? Could it be that the princess is imprisoned in the princess's mansion and can't get out?"

Thinking of the prince's plans over the past few days, at midnight, Nichang, dressed in black, broke into the princess's mansion.

"Princess, what do you want from me?"

Jiang Jiu had not gone to bed yet. She was not used to being served, so she asked Chunhua, Qiuyue and the others to go to other rooms to sleep. She was the only one in the room at this time.

Without lighting the lamp, Jiang Jiu told Zhao Zhuoxi that he was poisoned and that the antidote was placenta.

Nishang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to the pharmacy right away. Before she left, Miss Chuyu told her apprentice that she could also treat the prince, but this poison... I'll know after I try it."

The blood Zhao Zhuoxi vomited was purple. If placenta was added, the color of the blood would change, indicating that the medicine was the right one.
