Xie Xu's expression changed. Even if he wanted to suppress this matter, he couldn't. He said in a deep voice, "Princess Chen, it's time for an explanation."

Yu Guiwan leaned forward slightly and said calmly, "There is indeed something wrong with this makeup powder, but it was not done by me."

She paused and looked at Xie Zhiyi, "May I ask where did your Highness get this makeup powder?" Logically speaking, Xie Zhiyi was confined in the palace, and makeup powder was not so easy to buy.

In addition, the Queen Mother's tone and expression just now did not seem to indicate that she was the one who had it bought for Xie Zhiyi.

"In reply to your question, Princess, it was sent by the eldest princess yesterday." The maidservant beside Xie Zhiyi naturally knew where the makeup powder came from, so she answered Yu Guiwan's question.

"What does the Imperial Aunt mean? Are you trying to say that it was my aunt who harmed me?" Xie Zhiyi immediately understood that Yu Guiwan actually wanted to put the blame of her own mistakes on her aunt.

She doesn't understand what kind of person Yu Guiwan is, but doesn't she understand her aunt either?

Apart from her father and mother, her aunt was the best person to her.

After these words were spoken, the Queen's eyes changed when she looked at Yu Guiwan. Although she didn't say anything, she looked down on Yu Guiwan even more in her heart. As a princess, she was willing to associate with merchants.

That would be fine, but now he has done something like this.

"I didn't say that the makeup powder sent by the eldest princess alone had problems." She said calmly, "It's that all the makeup powders in this batch have problems."

The pupils of everyone present shrank slightly.

The Queen scolded, "Since Princess Chen knew there was something wrong with this powder, why did she allow Ming Yu Zhai to sell it?" She then turned to Xie Xu and said, "Your Majesty, many high-ranking officials have used this powder. This matter must not be covered up."

The Queen understood that His Majesty would certainly spare Yu Guiwan for the sake of Prince Chen, but as the mother of a country, she also had to advise His Majesty.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I only found out about the problem with this batch of makeup powder two days ago. I didn't mean to hide it on purpose." Having said that, she gave Fuqiu a look.

Fuqiu immediately took out a small white jade porcelain bottle and said, "This is the antidote."

Xie Zhiyi looked at the antidote in Yu Guiwan's hand and muttered, "I dare not eat what you gave me." Although her voice was low, everyone present heard it.

Pei Jin also complained unhappily, "I didn't say I was giving it to you."

"Humph."

Xie Zhiyi glared at Pei Jin, and Pei Jin glared back, unwilling to be outdone. If His Majesty and the Queen had not been present, the two would have restrained themselves much more, otherwise they would have definitely started fighting again.

Xie Sui was not one to indulge Xie Zhiyi, and said coldly, "Since you don't dare to eat it, then don't eat it."

Xie Xu looked at the couple's reactions and it seemed that they were well prepared.

"Doctor Wei said that if someone who has been poisoned by this poison doesn't take the antidote in time, their face will slowly fester." Yu Guiwan said this, glanced at the antidote in his hand, and prepared to put it away.

When Xie Zhiyi heard Yu Guiwan's description, his scalp tingled and he hurriedly stopped her.

"Hey……"

She put on a smile and said, "Aunt, I'll eat, I'll eat." Her flexibility was fully demonstrated.

Yu Guiwan didn't bother with her much. After all, he had never thought that Xie Zhiyi would be implicated. It seemed that the person behind the scenes was quite scheming. Princess Yong'an's poisoning was no trivial matter for the Queen and His Majesty.

Fortunately, she was careful at the time and asked Qingyu to buy the makeup powder for her, otherwise she really wouldn't know where the problem with the makeup powder was.

Xie Sui spoke up, "Please rest assured, my royal brother. The antidote has already been delivered to everyone who bought the powder."

"Well, but even if we give them the antidote, they won't let it go. Have you thought about how to solve it?" Xie Xu asked. Even if the antidote was sent up now, it would be impossible to make this deal.

"Please rest assured, brother. Leave this matter to Awan. We will definitely find the real culprit." Xie Sui naturally supported his wife unconditionally and asked for a favor for her to prevent his brother from handing the matter over to others.

Xie Xu admired Yu Guiwan, but the queen didn't think so.

"Your Majesty, please think twice. If I leave this matter to Princess Chen, I'm afraid it won't convince the public. In my opinion, Princess Chen should take this opportunity to get out of this or give up the business."

"As a princess, you should act like a princess. This time, the incident was discovered early. If there is any mistake next time, I am afraid it will not be such a simple matter."

The queen persuaded.

Xie Sui cupped his hands, his expression somewhat irritated. "Your Majesty, I support whatever Ah Wan wants to do. Even if there are any problems, I believe Ah Wan can solve them herself. Even if she can't, I'll cover for her."

"She is herself first, and then the Princess of Chen."

Xie Sui was too disrespectful to the Queen and this crossed his bottom line, even though she was the Queen.

Yu Guiwan pursed her lips and smiled, looking at Xie Sui.

Xie Zhiyi's expression suddenly changed, and a hint of envy welled up in his eyes.

The Queen wanted to say something else but was interrupted by Xie Xu, "Let the young people handle their own affairs. In that case, you should go back as soon as possible."

"You can go back with me." Xie Xu said to Pei Jin.

Since Xie Xu had already spoken like this, the Queen naturally couldn't say anything else. Xie Sui immediately took Yu Guiwan with her and left. The two of them spoke in unison:

"My dear brother, please retire."

"My wife, please retire."

After the two men left, the Queen could not help but speak, "Your Majesty, you are being too lenient with them. As a member of the royal family..."

Xie Zhiyi knew that she was going to say something more profound, so she quickly pretended to say, "Mother, my face is itchy..." As expected, the queen no longer had any other thoughts and her attention was completely focused on Xie Zhiyi's face.

"Didn't you say that no one can antidote this poison? What's going on now?" the woman asked loudly.

The house was in a mess, and all the jade pieces in the house were smashed by her. When she got the news, her face twisted with anger.

"How come she has so many antidotes now? You're such a good person, Yu Guiwan!"

She tricked me again!

Faced with the woman's extremely angry look, the man opposite did not show any fear. Instead, he said calmly, "Master, just relax. Even if Yu Guiwan can cure the poison, she will have completely lost the support of the people."

The man cupped his hands and summed up the current situation in one sentence.

"As for the matter of detoxification, I already know who it is." He narrowed his eyes and already had the answer in his mind.

Looking around, there is only one person in the world who can break his poison so easily.
