Qin Ruyi tried to appease the King of Yunnan and had someone pour him some water, finally calming his anger. The King of Yunnan asked, "Doctor Wang, how is Yao'er? When will she wake up?" Doctor Wang shuddered at the mention of her name, but quickly regained his composure and said, "Your Highness, I have prescribed an antidote for the princess. She will be awake in half an hour at the earliest." Hearing this, the King of Yunnan finally felt relieved.

The King of Yunnan knew that it was not a good idea to have so many people gathered here, so he asked the maid to leave and the doctor to be on standby. Dugu Jingyue's eyes were swollen like walnuts from crying. The King of Yunnan also wanted her to go back first, but she insisted on waiting until Dugu Jingyao woke up before she could rest assured. So she ordered someone to bring her a low stool and sat her down by Dugu Jingyao's bed. Qin Ruyi was deeply distressed when she saw Dugu Jingyue's expression. She wondered: If Yue'er knew that I was the one who poisoned her sister, would she hate me? With this doubt, she was more determined than ever to let Yue'er know about this matter.

Dugu Jingyue had been guarding Dugu Jingyao. During the time, Shi Jian asked Dugu Jingyue to take a rest, but she refused. He had no choice but to let her stay here. Soon half an hour passed. Si Jian approached Dugu Jingyao and poked her with his finger while tucking her into the quilt. Then Dugu Jingyao pretended to wake up slowly. Dugu Jingyue was very excited when she saw Dugu Jingyao open her eyes. She immediately ordered Si Jian to call the palace doctor, and then asked Dugu Jingyao all kinds of questions. Dugu Jingyao patiently answered them one by one, thinking: She is still a little young.

Soon, a crowd of people gathered in the room again. In addition to Doctor Wang, the King of Yunnan and Qin Ruyi also arrived. After taking the princess's pulse, Doctor Wang stroked his beard and said, "Your Highness, the princess is now fine. As long as she stays away from the source of the poison and persists in taking the medicine I prescribed, she will be cured in half a month." The King of Yunnan had those around him escort the court physician out and walked to the bedside. At this time, Dugu Jingyue also stood up to make room for her father. The King of Yunnan looked at Dugu Jingyao with heartache: "Yao'er, you have suffered." Dugu Jingyao sat up, shook the King of Yunnan's hand and said, "Daddy, I'm fine. Fortunately, it was discovered early, otherwise I'm afraid I would be gone forever soon." As she spoke, she pretended to wipe tears with her sleeve. The King of Yunnan remembered this and became angry again: "Xunfeng, send someone to investigate! Who is it that wants to harm my Yao'er?" Dugu Jingyao coughed twice, asking the King of Yunnan not to be angry. Shi Jian knelt down and apologized at the right time: "Your Highness, it is our fault. We have not served the princess well." The King of Yunnan wanted to punish Shi Jian and Si Jian for not taking good care of them, but Dugu Jingyao would definitely not allow it, so he said: "Dad, you can't blame them. After all, someone is deliberately poisoning us, and it is impossible to prevent it. But if Dad wants to punish them, why not give them a chance to make amends!" When the King of Yunnan heard Dugu Jingyao say this, he said: "Since Yao'er said so, then I will give you a chance! Yao'er, how do you want them to make amends?" Dugu Jingyao said: "Shi Jian, Si Jian, you two should help Xun Feng find out the truth! If you can't find out, go and get the board!" Si Jian and Shi Jian agreed repeatedly, and the King of Yunnan asked the other maids to withdraw first, but Shi Jian was still kneeling on the ground. The King of Yunnan frowned and said: "Is there anything else? Why don't you withdraw?" Shi Jian took a deep breath and said: "Yunnan Your Majesty, when Doctor Wang took our pulse earlier, he said the thieves had stopped poisoning us for a while, and that they had been poisoning us for about a month, which would have been around the time the princess fell into the water. "What do you mean?" Shi Jian continued, "Your Highness, what I'm saying is that the princess might have fallen into the water intentionally." The King of Yunnan was so angry he almost rolled his eyes. Qin Ruyi was there to help him calm down, and Dugu Jingyao said, "Don't be angry, Daddy. This person must have harmed me for fame or money. I don't think a servant would do that. If they did, they were probably being ordered to do it, bribed with money, or threatened. How else could a servant be so desperate as to poison the prince's mansion?" Qin Ruyi was a little frightened by Dugu Jingyao's analysis: Princess Yi'an's analysis was too specific, she was just short of saying one of these masters had poisoned her! If you think about it carefully, you will realize that the prince treats the princess like a jewel and it is definitely not the case. My Yue'er is also very dependent on the princess now. The only one who may have a conflict of interest with the princess is me. What should I do? What should I do?
