After exchanging a glance with Prince Xiao, the two of them walked towards the room in tacit understanding.

As soon as she entered the room, Shi Xiaoxiao smelled the strong scent of Albizia julibrissin in the room.

She quickly covered her mouth and nose and threw a rag to King Xiao.

Signaled to him that there was poison in the room and to cover his mouth and nose.

The two of them slowly explored inside.

A person was lying on the large sandalwood carved bed.

After taking a closer look, Shi Xiaoxiao was shocked.

It turned out to be my cousin Song Yuchuan!

Looking at his expression, I knew he was poisoned by the Hehuan Powder.

Shi Xiaoxiao didn't understand why her cousin appeared here and was poisoned.

Thinking of the maid's cautious look just now, it was likely that my cousin was being plotted against.

If the poison is not detoxified, he will be tortured to death.

It seems that the person who plotted against him either wanted to arrange for a woman to frame him, or just wanted to torture him like this.

Shi Xiaoxiao thought it should be the former.

A silver needle appeared in her hand, and she immediately detoxified Song Yuchuan.

Of course, silver needles are non-toxic.

There is no antidote for the poison of Hehuan Powder, so she can only use silver needles to force the poison to a certain place and then expel it.

Seeing Shi Xiaoxiao's skillful technique, King Xiao's eyes were dim.

This acupuncture technique cannot be mastered without more than ten years of practice.

Was she hiding it herself, or did Shi Yuan teach her on purpose? If she was hiding it herself, then she was pretending too well.

How deep her scheming is!

Under Shi Xiaoxiao's acupuncture and detoxification, Song Yuchuan's complexion gradually turned from crimson to normal.

Prince Xiao was secretly shocked. As far as he knew, there was no antidote for Hehuan Powder, but she could actually detoxify it with silver needles.

Even Gou Ziyan couldn't do it. How good were her medical skills?

She took out a knife and let Song Yuchuan bleed.

Finally, he wiped the sweat off his forehead and let out a long sigh.

The person on the bed was slowly waking up, looking at the two people in front of him with a confused look on his face.

Shi Xiaoxiao smiled and jokingly said, "Cousin? Do you still recognize me?"

Song Yuchuan came back to his senses and stood up. "Xiaoxiao, where am I? Why are you here?"

Shi Xiaoxiao poured a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp.

"You were poisoned. Fortunately, we discovered it in time. It was His Royal Highness Prince Xiao who saved you."

Prince Xiao glanced at Shi Xiaoxiao who was talking nonsense seriously and said nothing.

Song Yuchuan analyzed Shi Xiaoxiao's words.

Poisoned?

He had just taken a sip of tea when he suddenly fell asleep.

Was the tea poisoned?

King Xiao saved him?

When did King Xiao become so kind?

But he still stood up and bowed to Prince Xiao, "Thank you, Your Highness, Prince Xiao, for detoxifying me."

"It's just a small matter, no need to thank me."

King Xiao put his hands behind his back and accepted the credit without any sense of guilt.

Shi Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and asked, "Cousin, do you know who poisoned you?"

"I just drank a sip of tea and lost consciousness. I don't know who poisoned me and brought me here."

His face was cold and there was a faint light in his eyes.

Shi Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and then an idea flashed through her mind. "Since we don't know who it is, let's just play along. They gave you the Hehuan Powder, so if nothing unexpected happens, there should be more people coming."

As they were talking, they heard the sound of footsteps outside and the three of them looked at each other.

Remembering what Shi Xiaoxiao said about taking advantage of the situation, Song Yuchuan quickly lay back on the bed and pretended to be poisoned.

Shi Xiaoxiao and King Xiao hid behind the screen.

The door was pushed open with a creak.

A young girl came in. She didn't suspect anything and went straight to the bed.

He looked at her quietly for a while and said, "I'm sorry, I can't help it."

As he said this, he took off his coat and prepared to go to bed.

When he heard the voice, Song Yuchuan already knew who it was.

He was shocked in disbelief.

I didn’t expect it to be her!

Liu Xiangmei!

I have known him in college since childhood, and we can be considered childhood sweethearts, studying and growing up together.

He really couldn't imagine that she would use such a despicable method on him.

He was so angry that he opened his eyes, drew the soft sword from his waist and put it on her neck.

"Miss Liu, what do you want to do?"

Liu Xiangmei was startled and panicked: "You...you are not poisoned?"

Song Yuchuan looked at her motionlessly, his dark eyes seemed to see straight into people's hearts, and there were turbulent waves in his eyes.

He didn't answer her, but asked her.

"why?"

Liu Xiangmei's eyes instantly turned red, and she stammered, "I'm sorry, Yuchuan. I... I have my reasons."

"What's the reason?"

"Please forgive me, I really had no choice."

She sobbed quietly.

"What's the difficulty?" Song Yuchuan asked her again.

She shook her head and sobbed silently.

"You framed my cousin to pin the blame on him for the child in your belly?"

Shi Xiaoxiao and Prince Xiao walked out from behind the screen.

She could see clearly that Liu Xiangmei had been stroking her belly since she came in.

Most likely she got pregnant before marriage and wants to find someone to take over.

Song Yuchuan was chosen just right.

Take advantage of the banquet to design Song Yuchuan.

Liu Xiangmei was shocked when she saw the two people walking out.

It seemed as if he didn't expect that there was someone else there, including His Royal Highness Prince Xiao.

Thinking about what I did just now, everyone saw it.

A strong sense of humiliation surged in her heart, making her feel ashamed.

When she heard Shi Xiaoxiao's words again, her face was pale, she chewed her lower lip tightly, and her trembling voice took a long time to utter a word.

"Who are you? You're talking nonsense. I'm not pregnant."

Shi Xiaoxiao's lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm. "You can tell if you're pregnant by calling a doctor. Doctor Gou is right in the front yard. Who knows if you've scared the baby by going through all this? Why don't I call Doctor Gou over for you?"

After saying that, he prepared to call someone.

King Xiao watched her performance quietly, secretly criticizing her in his heart.

Aren’t you a doctor?

Liu Xiangmei froze in place, feeling a chill from head to toe. She anxiously called out to Shi Xiaoxiao, "Stop!"

The anxious and fearful tone made Song Yuchuan realize that Shi Xiaoxiao was right.

She was really pregnant and even wanted to blame him for the child.

He looked at Liu Xiangmei in shock, with disappointment, pain, and struggle flashing in his eyes.

He clenched his fists and asked solemnly, "Whose child is it?"
