Nanny Cheng burst into tears of heartache. These were the only two times in the princess's life that she lost her composure.
The first time was when the prince consort died of a serious illness!
She cried like a helpless child!
She said in a trembling voice, "Doctor Hu, please think of a solution quickly. The princess won't be able to bear it if she loses Xiaobao!"
Doctor Hu understood this logic very well, but he really had no way to deal with it.
Just when he was in great difficulty, Zhan Yan slowly spoke: "Let Wanwan try. If she can't save Xiaobao, I am willing to bear all the punishment!"
The eldest princess' eyes suddenly widened. Isn't it that Zhan Yan only pampers Lin Yiwan because he feels guilty towards her?
He was willing to do so much for her?
Do you even dare to bear your own anger?
Just as her thoughts were swirling, Princess Xinya spoke again: "Marquis Zhan Yi, even if you want to protect her, there should be a limit. She was the one who poisoned Xiaobao, how could she possibly save him? If Xiaobao died at her hands, would you be able to bear the responsibility?"
Zhan Yan interrupted without hesitation: "At most, I can exchange my life for another's, but Your Highness has slandered my wife like this, do you dare to do so?"
Princess Xinya was so frightened that she quickly looked away guiltily: "I will not argue with a madman!"
Zhan Yan looked at everyone with scorching eyes, "Everyone present, please bear witness for my wife. Princess Xinya has been slandering her as the real culprit of the poisoning. If it is ultimately discovered that she is not the real culprit, then I will personally send her to the Ministry of Justice prison!"
Princess Xinya quickly cried and complained to the eldest princess, "Aunt, I just feel sorry for Xiaobao. Why did Marquis Zhan Yi send me to the Ministry of Justice prison?"
Under normal circumstances, the eldest princess would be in a mood to comfort her if she cried.
But right now, she was completely indifferent.
She scowled, "I think the Marquis is right. You really should be disciplined. Ordinary people make mistakes and get punished. As the current princess, you should set an example!"
Princess Xinya bit her lip hard, her eyes full of resentment.
The princess didn't dare hesitate any longer and hurriedly urged Lin Yiwan, "Wanwan, give Abao acupuncture right away!"
Lin Yiwan nodded and directly inserted the silver needle into Xiaobao's abdomen.
After a while, it still had its head drooping, without any movement.
Princess Xinya quickly said fiercely, "Aunt, look, I guessed right, didn't she? How could she save Xiaobao? She only hated Xiaobao for not dying. She gave him another stab. She is the culprit. You must punish her!"
The eldest princess tangled her hands in her sleeves, her eyes filled with intense struggle.
At this moment, she was muttering, "Wait a little longer, give Lin Yiwan another chance, Xiaobao will definitely not abandon her!"
Princess Xinya could no longer wait, and she resented Zhan Yan for wanting to send her to the Ministry of Justice prison.
Why should he?
How could a man with a hidden illness and the same condition as a eunuch have the qualifications to punish her?
Even if he was a favorite of the current emperor, it could not change the fact that he was rootless.
She roared angrily, "Come here, drag Lin Yiwan away! She deliberately poisoned my aunt's beloved pet, and as if that weren't enough, she stabbed it to death. How can such a vicious and cruel woman be let off so easily? Give her fifty lashes of the cane!"
After the words fell, the whole place fell silent.
Everyone knew that after fifty lashes, Lin Yiwan would either die or be crippled.
Princess Xinya must hate her to death!
Just as the guards from the Zhongyong Palace hurried forward, Lin Yiwan asked innocently, "Why are you hitting me? Xiaobao is clearly not dead yet!"
The originally listless Xiaobao suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a large mouthful of black stuff. His pair of red rabbit eyes slowly opened and he whimpered towards the princess.
The eldest princess didn't care about anything else and quickly stepped forward to hold it in her arms.
Lin Yiwan subconsciously stopped him: "Princess, Xiaobao hasn't been fully cured yet. He just vomited out the poisoned food, and the poison in his body hasn't been eliminated yet!"
The princess's pale face was stained with tears. She asked in a trembling voice, "What poison did Xiaobao eat?"
Lin Yiwan took a silver needle to check the dirt it vomited out and found that it was a piece of carrot.
After careful assessment, she quickly concluded, "Someone stuffed poisonous arsenic into the carrot core. Fortunately, it swallowed it whole, so the poison evaporated slowly. Otherwise, even a Daluo Immortal would not be able to save it!"
The princess suddenly realized something. She gritted her teeth and said, "Xiaobao is very clever. When he eats, he always licks the food with his tongue before putting it into his mouth. If he senses something is wrong, he will turn around and run away. Obviously, the person who poisoned him knew this habit and dug out the core to poison him!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she shouted, "Where's Nanny Chen from the Changsheng Palace? Bring her up here!"
Soon, Nanny Chen, with a flushed face, was dragged forward tremblingly. She kept mumbling, "Good wine, it really is good wine. Is there any more? Give me some more!"
When she saw the little maid beside Princess Xinya, she stumbled towards her.
The little maid was so frightened that her legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground. She hesitantly argued, "Where do I get any wine? Madam, why are you so drunk?"
Nanny Chen, her eyes half-drunk, kept asking, "It's you! You just gave me a pot of delicious wine! It was so good! I drank it all!"
The maid quickly denied it: "I didn't, don't slander me!"
Princess Xinya was so angry that her face turned ashen. A murderous look flashed in her eyes. She quickly took out a sharp dagger and stabbed it directly at Nanny Chen's head.
If this stab had been accurate, Nanny Chen would have died on the spot.
In just a flash, Ying Yi kicked Princess Xinya's wrist.
The dagger fell to the ground with a clang, scaring Nanny Chen sober from her drunkenness.
Princess Xinya was furious. She gritted her teeth and glared at Yingyi: "How dare you sneak attack me!"
Ying Yi answered seriously: "I did not attack Her Highness the Princess. I was obeying the Marquis's order to protect the witness!"
Just a few words made Princess Xinya feel like she was falling into an ice cellar.
It’s over, I’m afraid Zhan Yan has guessed what she did!
The princess finally came to her senses. She sternly said, "Come here, arrest Du Juan. If she had no ulterior motives, why would she give wine to Nanny Chen and get her drunk?"
Du Juan was Princess Xinya's personal maid. She fell to her knees and begged, "Your Highness, I am innocent. I only delivered wine to Nanny Chen. I did nothing else!"
Nanny Chen was also extremely panicked at this moment. She knew that after Xiaobao got drunk, he was lured out and almost poisoned to death. She had caused a big disaster.
She burst into tears and slapped herself hard: "Princess, it's all my fault for being greedy. Dujuan not only gave me wine, but also asked for a piece of carrot that Xiaobao likes to eat!"
