The next morning, Dugu Jingyao got up and practiced swordplay as usual, then washed up and ordered breakfast. When she was about to finish her meal, she remembered her doubts before going to bed yesterday and gave Si Jian a look. Si Jian saw it and asked everyone else to leave, leaving Shi Jian and Si Jian alone in the room. She whispered, "Shi Jian, go find a better doctor outside." Si Jian was puzzled: "Princess, don't we have a doctor in our house? Why do we need to go out to find one?" Shi Jian thought for a moment and probably understood Dugu Jingyao's concerns. She accepted the order and prepared to go out. Dugu Jingyao stopped her and said, "Remember, do it quietly, don't let others know."

After Si Jian left, Dugu Jingyao finished her breakfast. Si Jian asked someone to clear the table, and then he followed Dugu Jingyao to the dressing table. Dugu Jingyao knew that Si Jian didn't understand. Si Jian was a straightforward person, and didn't like to use his brain much. She was good at fighting, but she was really not very good at using her brain... So she explained: "I need to verify some things, and I can't use the palace doctor, otherwise it will definitely alarm my father, Aunt Qin and Yue'er. I'm afraid they will worry." Si Jian nodded: "Princess, what do you want to verify? Why do you need a doctor?" Dugu Jingyao saw her trying to get to the bottom of things and thought: It's time to let her understand the twists and turns of some big mansions, because in this life she has to find a way to prevent the people in the palace from participating in the rebellion. If they don't participate in the rebellion, Si Jian should not die, and then she must let her marry. So he said: "Don't you feel that your princess has been particularly weak since she had a high fever?" Si Jian began to recall: It seems that it is true. Since the princess woke up, she has not been as lively as before. Although she still goes to the military camp, she goes much less frequently than before! And she often sleeps! Si Jian suddenly realized. Dugu Jingyao said again: "What I want to verify is why I am like this. I don't think it is caused by physical weakness, it may be poisoning." Si Jian shouted: "What? Poisoned..." Halfway through his words, Dugu Jingyao covered his mouth: "Shh, be quiet!" Si Jian also reacted and covered his mouth, thinking: I almost missed the princess's business.

After a while, Shi Jian sent the other people in the courtyard out to work, and quietly brought in a doctor. The doctor bowed to greet Dugu Jingyao, and after Dugu Jingyao woke up, she asked the doctor to take her pulse. This Doctor Song was the attending doctor of Chunhetang, and he was considered one of the most famous doctors in the city they were in. Doctor Song took a handkerchief and put it on Dugu Jingyao's wrist, his face darkened. Dugu Jingyao saw the doctor's expression and had a rough idea in her mind, fearing that her guess was probably right. Doctor Song took his hand away, collected the handkerchief and said: "Princess, I found that you were poisoned?" Dugu Jingyao was not surprised, but just asked: "Doctor Song, is this poison serious?" Doctor Song admired Dugu Jingyao's calmness in his heart: She is worthy of being Princess Yi'an, a heroine, and she is so calm even when she knows she is poisoned! He said, "This poison is a chronic poison. If it lasts another year or two, I'm afraid it will be too late. But the princess discovered it early, so this poison can be cured. I will prescribe medicine for you. Take it twice a day, three bowls of water boiled into one bowl and drink it." Dugu Jingyao was relieved after hearing this: "Okay, thank you, doctor." He originally wanted to ask Shi Jian to send the person away quietly, but suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, Doctor Song, how long have I been poisoned?" Doctor Song said, "Judging from the pulse, it's been about a month, but he probably hasn't been exposed to poisons for a while." After saying that, he asked Shi Jian to send the person away and handed him a purse. Doctor Song understood that this was probably a hush money.

Inside the house, Dugu Jingyao and Si Jian were lost in thought. Dugu Jingyao pondered: Who on earth could this be? What was this person trying to do? It was a chronic poison, and it was only given for a month before it was stopped. It would only make the person weaker, not fatal. Could it be that the person who poisoned her had a change of heart? The key is, if they stopped poisoning her, it would be difficult to investigate! Si Jian thought to himself: Who on earth could this be? How dare they poison the princess! If I find out, I will definitely skin her alive! He also regretted how he was so careless and gave her the opportunity to poison the princess. Damn it!
