In fact, Emperor Yongxi himself thought so too.

It's just that when another person said it, it seemed to confirm his guess.

The gloom in his eyes slowly dissipated, and he showed a rare smile: "It seems to be true!"

After a pause, he curled the corners of his lips again, revealing a smile that showed that everything was under control: "Old Fifth's wife is really interesting. She is in need of Stone Spirit Grass, and she knows that I have it, but she doesn't tell me, and instead asks for a reward of gold and silver!"

"Maybe...Princess An really doesn't know."

"There's a gambling game going on everywhere, how could she not know about it?"

Yushu speculated, "After all, the princess is a woman from the backyard, and she's concerned about the prince's condition, so it's possible she doesn't get any news from the outside world. According to spies, Princess An hasn't left the main courtyard since Prince An fell into a coma. Matters within the palace are also being handled by the housekeeper Wu Yuxing and the chief secretary Ding Zhangyi."

"Yes, it is possible that a woman from the harem, who is young and grew up in the countryside, does not have such knowledge." Emperor Yongxi felt much better immediately.

"Yushu, go and help me do something!"

After Yan Xining left the palace and boarded the carriage of Prince An's mansion, the sadness on her face disappeared.

The emperor wanted Chu Jinxun dead because of his suspicion and doubt.

Tonight she will break into the palace and get the Stone Spirit Grass.

The published prescription for treating congenital illness is not the real prescription for treating Chu Jinxun's poison. It only contains one rare ingredient, Stone Spirit Grass.

However, the real detoxification prescription is indeed only missing one ingredient: Stone Spirit Grass.

After returning to Prince An's Mansion, Yan Xining told Chu Jinxun all about Emperor Yongxi's temptations.

Chu Jinxun was not surprised at all. His eyes were cold. He knew from the beginning that the entire palace was a man-eating den.

And his father is the most brutal one!

He said, "Master and I will go together in the evening! We are familiar with the terrain of the palace!"

"Master and I are together!" Yan Xining was worried about his health. "If you use your internal energy, it will interact with the toxins in your body. I'm afraid that it will cause more trouble!"

Sai Bian Que curled his lips and said, "Why do we need so many old men? One person is enough. When Jinxun was still young, the old man was just like running on the main road in the palace. He didn't need any support or help. You just need to tell me where the emperor's son's private treasury is?"

Chu Jinxun took the paper and started drawing.

Although he had built his residence outside the palace at the age of fourteen, he was very familiar with the terrain of the palace.

He was just about to explain the map to Sai Bian Que when Wu Yuxing reported from outside, "Princess, someone's coming from the palace!"

The three people in the room looked at each other, Chu Jinxun put down his pen, rolled up the paper, and quickly returned to the couch.

As his internal energy began to flow, his entire face suddenly turned pale and sickly.

Yan Xining also quickly changed her expression to one of sadness and worry.

Wu Yuxing only asked the princess to inform her, which meant that the people in the palace had entered the yard.

Such a sudden attack obviously had a purpose.

The door opened as he spoke.

Eunuch Yushu stood at the door and looked inside.

Yan Xining wiped the corners of her eyes with the handkerchief in her hand, turned around and greeted him: "Eunuch Yu, I'm sorry for not coming to greet you!"

She looked at Wu Yuxing: "Why didn't the housekeeper inform us in advance and let the eunuch go so far? Did we lose our manners?"

Wu Yuxing said with a wooden face: "Princess, please forgive me!" He did not explain and his attitude was very cold.

Yushu glanced at the two of them and said with a smile, "Princess, you've wrongly blamed Butler Wu. It was I who knew that the prince was seriously ill, and the princess must have been guarding here. So I told Butler Wu not to inform him. I came here to see the prince directly!"

"Please come to the meeting!"

Yushu entered the room and saw Chu Jinxun lying on the bed with his eyes closed and a pale face. Sai Bianque was taking his pulse, shaking his head and frowning from time to time.

He inquired with concern for a few moments before finally getting to the point: "Princess, I heard the prince's prescription was still missing a certain ingredient, the Stone Spirit Herb. The Emperor immediately ordered the Imperial Medical Bureau and the inner treasury to search for this herb. He also had someone search his and the Empress's private vaults, and finally found the only one. Look, he immediately ordered it to be delivered to us!"

As he spoke, he winked and the eunuch following behind him came forward holding a box.

Yan Xining's eyes moved slightly, her face filled with joy, her eyes moistened: "Your Majesty is so thoughtful. Eunuch, thank your father for me. When the prince gets better after taking the medicine, I will go to the palace to express my gratitude in person!"

After sending Yushu away, Wu Yuxing quietly handed a purse into Yushu's hand.

Yushu also took it with a smile and looked back meaningfully.

Oh, no wonder Princess An doesn't want anything to happen to Prince An. Look, not even one housekeeper takes her seriously. If Prince An really dies, will her life be easy?

Although we have the Stone Spirit Grass and all the medicinal materials, it is still unclear whether King An can be cured. How pitiful!

His eyes suddenly deepened: "Butler Wu, the master is the master and the servant is the servant. We must distinguish between the primary and the secondary."

Wu Yuxing's expression changed slightly, and he quickly took out another purse and stuffed it over: "Your Excellency is right. I was worried about the prince's illness, and some of my actions were not appropriate. Thank you for your reminder!"

After Yushu left, Wu Yuxing immediately returned to the main courtyard.

Chu Jinxun's eyebrows twitched: "It sounds like this Eunuch Yushu is supporting you?"

Yan Xining pondered: "Yushu is able to become the chief eunuch, so he is definitely not a nosy person. It's not easy to get him to say a word, but I don't know why he is so kind to me!"

Wu Yuxing said: "Maybe it was just a coincidence!"

Sai Bian Que rolled his eyes and said, "Nonsense, can we stop discussing this? Now that we have the Stone Spirit Grass, girl, you have to go make the medicine quickly! This old man will help you!"

"it is good!"

They didn't expect Emperor Yongxi to take out the Stone Spirit Grass, but no matter what, the result was good.

They let go of the heavy stone in their hearts.

It took Yan Xining a day and a night to prepare the antidote with the help of Sai Bian Que.

Looking at the three gray, round, shiny pills in front of him that smelled of medicine, Chu Jinxun's fingers trembled slightly, and he didn't dare to reach out to take them for a moment.

Seeing Chu Jinxun's hesitation, Yan Xining couldn't help but blush. She gently held Chu Jinxun's hand and said softly, "Jinxun, you've suffered enough because of this congenital fetal poison. Now the antidote is right in front of you. Don't be afraid. Take it, and those poisons will never torture you again!"

Her voice trembled slightly, revealing excitement and joy that was difficult to conceal, and her eyes were full of expectations and encouragement.

Sai Bian Que was so anxious that he stamped his feet, his gray beard trembling. "My Lord, what are you dawdling about? I haven't slept a wink for a whole day and night to make this antidote. I've put so much effort into mixing the herbs and controlling the heat. I've spent so much time on every single step. I've been standing by without blinking, hoping to eradicate the root of your illness, and yet you're just sitting there, lost in thought!"

Although there were a lot of complaints, everyone could hear the concern and relief hidden behind these words.

Chu Jinxun's Adam's apple rolled, and he swallowed a few times. He slowly raised his hand, and the moment his fingertips touched the pill, he felt as if burned and suddenly retracted his hand. His eyes were sore, his vision was a little blurry, and his voice was choked with sobs:

"I've waited so long for this day... Countless days and nights, tortured by illness to a point worse than death. I thought I'd be trapped in this frail body for the rest of my life. I never imagined that a cure would actually be found."

This was the first time he showed any emotion due to his poison.

Yan Xining comforted her distressedly, "The hardships of the past are over, and only good days remain in the future. Once you take the medicine, we will travel around the mountains and rivers, see the beautiful scenery of the world, and do many things that we only dared to imagine before."

Chu Jinxun took a deep breath, as if mustering up all his courage, and reached out again, steadily picking up a pill.

The pill felt warm to the touch, with a strange medicinal fragrance lingering at the tip of his nose, making him feel inexplicably at ease.

He stared at the pill for a moment, then tilted his head back and put the pill into his mouth. It tasted slightly bitter at first, but it melted into a sweetness on the tip of his tongue.

Yan Xining and Sai Bianque stared at him intently, not daring to breathe, as if they were waiting for a verdict concerning life and death.

No medicine can guarantee to cure any disease, not to mention that he had congenital fetal toxins, had taken too many different medicines before, and had practiced Taichu Hunyuan Jin to transform his body functions.

Although the prescription was the result of careful calculation by Sai Bian Que and Yan Xining, the drugs were used boldly, and the approach adopted was more of fighting poison with poison.

This method is risky. If it works, the poison will be eliminated immediately; if it fails, the poison will take effect immediately and there will be no possibility of treatment!

Chu Jinxun is willing to try and accept possible risks.

But now no one knows whether fighting poison with poison will be effective or ineffective and lead to death from poisoning!
