After the arranged marriage, I pampered the sickly regent.

"Let's all go out."

Ye Qingwu didn't intend to pursue the matter any further, and said to everyone present.

"Yes." Leng Feng glanced in Zhan Sijing's direction, and after receiving his signal, he led the steward and doctor out.

With no outsiders present, Zhan Sijing noticed Ye Qingwu standing there silently. "Is the Princess still upset about what happened earlier?"

“I wouldn’t say I’m angry. They are after all thinking about the prince’s safety. It’s just that…” Ye Qingwu paused, “I have to say there are quite a few spies in this mansion.”

A hint of amusement flickered in Zhan Sijing's deep eyes as his gaze fell upon the bowl of soup held by Ye Qingwu.

"So, the princess really did add something to it?"

This woman knew that he was poisoned by the Cold Shadow Poison, and she was able to propose cooperation to him under the pretext of treatment, so her medical skills must be extraordinary.

If something really was added to it, it would be more than enough to fool an ordinary doctor.

At this moment, Ye Qingwu had already placed the soup in front of Zhan Sijing, and when she looked up, her eyes met Zhan Sijing's.

"Even if I added something, Your Highness would dare..."

Before Ye Qingwu could even finish speaking, Zhan Sijing picked up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

Not even a single drop was left!

Ye Qingwu was stunned. Wasn't this person just doubting her? How come he drank it all?

With a hint of curiosity, she asked Zhan Sijing, "Your Highness, are you really not afraid I'll poison you?"

"I don't have many days left to live, so why should I be afraid of these things?"

Zhan Sijing replied, "Besides, with the Cold Shadow Poison in his body, other toxins have no effect on him at all."

"Compared to other things, I am more willing to believe the Queen."

Ye Qingwu smiled, clearly very satisfied with the answer, "Since Your Highness is so kind, I will naturally not betray this trust. How do you feel now?"

Zhan Sijing was stunned. He could feel as if a clear spring was flowing through his body after drinking the soup, and the pain caused by the toxins was gradually disappearing.

"You...how did you do it?"

Zhan Sijing stared at her in shock. Ye Qingwu hadn't treated him at all. Could it be that just because she added something to the soup, it could have such an effect?

That's just too amazing...

Even the prescription given by that legendary doctor probably wouldn't have the same effect.

Ye Qingwu stepped forward and said earnestly to Zhan Sijing, "Your Highness, the things I promise are never just empty words."

She had thought that as long as Zhan Sijing was alright, she would not only be fine, but she could also solve other problems, such as the so-called "preserving her offspring".

"You should rest well for now. I will use some medicinal herbs to help you recover," Ye Qingwu said. Given Zhan Sijing's current physical condition, even if she wanted to treat him, she was afraid his body wouldn't be able to withstand the effects of doing so.

While saving lives, the detoxification process must be carried out step by step; rushing it could lead to unpredictable consequences.

After giving these instructions, Ye Qingwu left.

"Leng Feng, shouldn't you explain what happened today?"

After Ye Qingwu left, Zhan Sijing saw the person who came in, and the smile on his face was replaced by coldness.

Leng Feng lowered his head and said, "Master, I heard from the steward that the people below did see the Princess add something to the soup."

"Although today's incident was a misunderstanding, the Princess's series of actions were indeed strange, and I have already sent people to monitor her in secret..."
