Dugu Jingyao just hoped that it wasn't Qin Liangdi. After all, this woman was her sister's biological mother, and she was also very caring towards her. If it was really her, she would be a little reluctant to do it.

At this time, Si Jian said, "Sister Shi Jian, didn't you say you needed my cooperation? What do you need me to do?" Shi Jian gave Si Jian a devilish smile and said, "After the princess pretends to faint, you need to pretend to be very anxious and run out to ask the palace doctor. It would be best if the whole palace knows about it, so that it will be easier to lure out the poisoner. You also know that I have always been calm and steady, and I am afraid that I can't achieve that effect." Si Jian thought for a while and said, "I didn't expect that my habit of being startled can be useful!"

So several people quickly completed the deployment. Shi Jian put some powder on Dugu Jingyao's face. Dugu Jingyao found a comfortable position and fainted on the ground. Si Jian shouted in panic: "Come, come quickly, the princess has fainted!" Hearing the sound, several maids came in, and saw Dugu Jingyao fainted on the ground with a panicked look on their faces. Shi Jian also pretended to be a little panicked at this time: "Quick, quick, lift the princess to the bed." Several people lifted Dugu Jingyao to the bed in a hurry, and Si Jian trotted out. When he was about to reach the residence of the palace doctor, he shouted loudly: "Doctor Wang, Doctor Wang!" When he heard no response, he walked to the door and knocked on it, or to be more precise, he banged on it. Doctor Wang heard the anxious clapping sounds and said, "I'm coming!" before he even reached the door. Doctor Wang opened the door and saw that it was Dugu Jingyao's personal maid. He felt something was wrong: "Miss Si Jian, something happened to Princess Yi'an." As she spoke, she tried to pull the doctor away: "Hurry up, Doctor Wang, our princess has fainted!" He was a little panicked when he heard that the princess had fainted, but he quickly recovered: "Don't worry, miss, I'll go get the medicine box." After getting the medicine box, Si Jian pulled Doctor Wang all the way to Banmengxuan.

When Doctor Wang arrived at the house, he saw Dugu Jingyao lying on the bed with a pale face. His breath hitched, and he thought to himself: Princess Yi'an must not be in trouble. She is the prince's beloved child. If he can't cure her, not only will he lose his job as the palace doctor, but he might even lose his life. Just thinking about it made him break out in a cold sweat. After calming down, Shi Jian brought Doctor Wang a low stool. Doctor Wang sat down, took out a handkerchief from the medicine box, placed it on Dugu Jingyao's hand, and began to feel her pulse.

It can be said that Si Jian's exaggeration was really on point. Except for the three of them, everyone else believed it. The news of Dugu Jingyao's fainting spread quickly in the mansion. Fuyun Pavilion and Qingfeng Pavilion both received the news. King Yunnan had not received the news because he was not in the mansion, but someone went to notify him.

At Fuyun Pavilion, Dugu Jingyue, who was still looking tired from last night's insomnia, disappeared completely upon hearing the news of Dugu Jingyao's fainting. Despite the dark circles under her eyes, she hurried out with Zhishu. Elsewhere at Qingfeng Pavilion, Qin Liangdi, upon hearing the news, jumped up in surprise, thinking: How is this possible? Could it be the poison? But it's been over a month, why is it just now taking effect? She muttered softly, "Impossible?" Her personal maid Qingzhi said, "It's true. I just went to get something and saw Sijian jogging to find the court doctor! He looks serious!" Qin Ruyi calmed herself down, holding onto the table and sitting down. She thought: No, I have to go and check. Has she found out? Has she poisoned someone else? With that thought, she stood up, holding Qingzhi's hand, and walked towards Banmengxuan.
