Quick Wear: Crazy Female Supporting Role She is Bai Yueguang

Chapter 160 Black Lotus Tears the Cannon Fodder Script (31)

Princess Yongning also came to today's banquet. She was wearing a lavender dress, but her figure was much fuller. She never thought that the prince who was already dying could come back to life.

Shi Qing is really nosy. If something happens to the crown prince, and his father has few children, his brother will be the successor to the throne.

But it doesn't matter. Half of the court is now made up of people from the Yu family. No matter who is the crown prince, it is impossible for him to decide all matters.

As for Shi Qing, does she really think that she can rest easy just by clinging to the prince?

Thinking of these days, Princess Yongning felt very ugly. If it weren't for Shi Qing, why would she bother to please the prince consort whom she looked down upon in the past.

Shi Qing...

There seemed to be poison in her eyes. She only wanted Shi Qing's life and didn't care about anything else.

After Shi Qing put the crown on the prince's head, he was about to leave when suddenly a strange fragrance came from the hall. Shi Qing keenly noticed that something was wrong.

The prince was toasting with the court officials when he suddenly turned pale and fell to the ground. Blood was still flowing from the corner of his mouth and his body was shaking.

Everything happened a little suddenly. The wine glass in Emperor Mingde's hand fell, his expression changed, and he spoke sternly.

"Quickly ask the imperial physician to come and treat the prince."

His chest was beating nervously. Emperor Mingde knew that the only connection between him and the deceased queen was the current crown prince. If anything really happened to the crown prince, she would never forgive him.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Mo Bai helped the prince to the soft couch in the side hall. The imperial physician came quickly to treat him. After taking the prince's pulse and giving him some medicine, he hurriedly talked about the cause of the prince's illness.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince was once in good health. The reason he got into trouble today is that someone secretly drugged him. His Highness has been deeply poisoned, and I'm afraid his body won't be able to hold out for much longer..."

Emperor Mingde's pupils trembled. He grabbed the imperial physician's collar and spoke nervously.

"You bastard, the prince will be fine. If you can't cure him, I will kill your entire clan!"

After saying this, he ordered someone to call the imperial physician from the Imperial Hospital, but the answer he got was still the same.

The Nine Clans Buried Heavenly Group knew that their heads no longer belonged to them, so they hurried to turn the tide.

"Your Highness's illness has not been a short time. Today, someone deliberately and secretly poisoned Your Highness. Your Majesty, that person must be a close minister. I think it would be better to go to the Eastern Palace and investigate, especially those who are close to Your Highness!"

Emperor Mingde seemed to be thinking about something, perhaps he felt that what the imperial physician said made sense, so he was about to order Xuanyuan Heng to take the Jinwu Guards to investigate the matter.

However, Princess Yongning spoke out.

"Father, if I remember correctly, the only person who has been close to the Crown Prince recently is the wife of Marquis Ning'an. Allow me to make the disrespectful assumption that this matter may be related to Marquis Ning'an..."

Princess Yongning's words were extremely bold and no one dared to agree with her. After all, Xuanyuan Heng was the emperor's confidant and was the general who accompanied Emperor Mingde into the capital.

Above the court, there is a sword hanging high, restraining everyone's actions.

King Xiaoyao stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, how about I order someone to investigate this matter? I will definitely bring justice to Ning An."

Emperor Mingde agreed to this matter without giving it much thought, which caused everyone present to have mixed feelings.

Perhaps no one expected that the emperor would agree to let King Xiaoyao act. It was really surprising.

Shi Qing waited calmly by the side. Although she was worried, she calmed down after learning some of the conspiracy from Tuanzi.

She had heard about the collusion between Prince Xiaoyao and Concubine Yu a long time ago. It seemed that even if the poisoning of the Crown Prince today had nothing to do with the Ning'an Marquis' Mansion, it would be fabricated out of thin air.

She looked at everyone present calmly with a sneer in her eyes, but did they really think that the initiative of the matter was in their hands?

Half a cup of tea later, King Xiaoyao really found some items from the East Palace, including sachets containing hidden poison and incense that was burned every day in the East Palace.

The imperial physician has confirmed that all incense is mixed with a powder called Wangu Ku, which is an extremely poisonous flower. Once contaminated, if there is no antidote, the body will wither and die within half a month.
