"Alright, Mother, Fu'er. Xixi came to see Father about important matters, so you don't need to crowd around anymore. Even when it comes to nourishing the body, it's important to do it gradually."

Among so many people, there is at least one rational one.

Zuo Chengfeng looked at his wife on the left and his mother-in-law on the right, his head aching.

Prince Su, who used to always be caught in the middle, can finally breathe a sigh of relief now that his daughter is getting married. He is watching with a smile on his face.

Upon hearing Zuo Chengfeng's words, Ning Haitang and Mu Qingfu fell silent for a moment before launching a joint attack on Zuo Chengfeng.

"Chengfeng, you and Qingfu have been married for a while now, when are you going to have a baby?"

"Zuo Chengfeng, you've really got guts. You're even lecturing me and my mother now."

Zuo Chengfeng: ...

The shrewd and calculating Su Qin, who had successfully retired, saw an opportunity and felt that now was the perfect time for him to step in. He acted as peacemaker, pulling Mu Qingfu and Ning Haitang aside, and said to Zuo Chengfeng with a smile, "Chengfeng, don't upset your mother and Qingfu. Go water the flowers for me if you have nothing else to do."

Then he looked at Gu Junxi and said, "Xixi, it's so late. If you have anything to say, just tell your uncle."

This family would fall apart without Prince Su.

Gu Junxi genuinely envied the family atmosphere of Prince Su's family. If she could, she would also like to give her unborn child such a harmonious and loving home in the future.

Gu Junxi lovingly touched her still-flat stomach, her eyes darkening: "Uncle, I think I've been drugged..."

Gu Junxi truthfully told Prince Su what she had discovered, fearing that if she was indeed poisoned, it would affect her child: "Uncle, could you take a look at me?"

Diagnosing yourself can be limiting; as the saying goes, a doctor cannot heal himself.

Besides, she hadn't studied medicine for as long as Prince Su, so she certainly didn't know as much as he did.

If we bring it up, the two of us can work together to figure it out.

“Amnesia, blankness.” Prince Su pondered these two keywords as he took Gu Junxi’s pulse.

Aside from the pregnancy pulse, Gu Junxi was found to be physically weak, but nothing else was diagnosed.

"Based on the two symptoms you described, it seems to be intermittent amnesia, but I took your pulse and found nothing wrong. Why don't we observe it for now and discuss it further after Master arrives in the capital?"

Gu Junxi and Prince Su have received the letter from Medicine King Valley. According to the time the letter was sent to the capital, Mr. Suxin will be arriving in the capital in the next couple of days.

She took her own pulse but couldn't diagnose anything, and neither could Prince Su. Now, besides observing and waiting for Master Suxin, there was no better way.

Gu Junxi agreed: "Then let's listen to Uncle."

"Xixi, don't worry. If anyone really wants to harm you, your aunt will definitely find him and cut off his head." Ning Haitang made a fierce expression to protect her own, and she held Gu Junxi's hand: "You can stay here tonight, your aunt will protect you."

Gu Junxi was still worried about Mu Lingye, who had turned around and left the palace: "Auntie, I think I should go back to the Crown Prince's residence."

Mu Qingfu crossed her arms and said, "No, Mu Lingye already wants to hit you. What if he attacks you again when you go back?"

“I believe that wasn’t his original intention. He didn’t actually hit me in the face, did he?” Gu Junxi was very clear-headed, and she insisted on returning to the Crown Prince’s residence.

Although she still couldn't get anything out of him, she was convinced that both she and Mu Lingye had been poisoned. Now that she was hiding in Prince Su's residence, what would happen to Mu Lingye?

Because of the events that occurred while he was a hostage in Yan, Mu Lingxuan has become extremely sensitive emotionally, and it has only recently begun to help him overcome his emotional turmoil.

She didn't want to leave Mu Lingye alone again.

"Mu Lingye is going to hit you?" Mu Qingfu let slip. Upon hearing Mu Qingfu's words, Ning Haitang's face darkened instantly, and she forcefully made a decision for Gu Junxi: "No, you can't go back to the Crown Prince's residence."

"Auntie, Ling has been poisoned."

"Who knows if he's truly poisoned or has changed his mind? Anyway, no health problems have been diagnosed. He can return to the Crown Prince's residence, but we'll discuss it when Master arrives." Ning Haitang ignored Gu Junxi's explanation and directly ordered someone to send Gu Junxi back to her room.

Gu Junxi had lived in the Prince Su's mansion, and Ning Haitang genuinely loved Gu Junxi. Therefore, even though Gu Junxi hadn't lived there for a long time, the courtyard where she lived in the Prince Su's mansion was still kept neat and tidy.

Gu Junxi only needs to move in now; there's no need for cleaning or preparation at all.

Prince's Mansion.

The leaves outside the window rustled as Mu Lingye sat at his desk in the study.

He blinked, as if he had just woken up from a dream.

He stared at the desk in front of him, shook his head vigorously, trying to clear his mind.

But he couldn't remember how he got back to the Crown Prince's residence.

"Mysterious Shadow".

As the sound faded, the study door was pushed open from the outside, and Xuan Ying appeared like a shadow.

"Xuanying, how did I get back to the Crown Prince's residence? Where is the Crown Princess now?"

When Mu Lingye asked about Gu Junxi, Xuan Ying's expression turned strange. They'd already taken action, and only a short time had passed, yet he was asking about it as if nothing had happened.

Xuan Ying pursed her lips, carefully raised her head, and cautiously observed Mu Lingye's expression: "Your Highness... don't you remember? You quarreled with the Crown Princess and left her to return to the Crown Prince's residence."

"Arguing? Why would I argue with the Crown Princess?" Hearing Xuan Ying's words, Mu Lingye became even more confused.

Xuan Ying had been by Mu Lingye's side for quite some time, and seeing Mu Lingye's expression, she didn't think he was lying.

Xuan Ying took a deep breath. It's very unusual for someone to do something extremely abnormal, only to find that they can't remember what they did as soon as they turn around.

"Your Highness, you really don't remember that you ordered your subordinates to slap Princess Qingfu? You even almost hit the Crown Princess yourself, you... don't remember any of that."

"How dare you! How could I possibly allow you to slap Qingfu? And I would never hit Xixi." Mu Lingye's face darkened, finding Xuan Ying's words absurd. Even if he were to harm himself, he would never hit Gu Junxi.

He would only hit Gu Junxi if he were insane.

Even if he were crazy, he wouldn't believe he would hit Gu Junxi.

Seeing that Mu Lingye didn't believe him, Xuan Ying realized the seriousness of the matter.

Without concealing anything, he recounted everything that had happened in detail, without hiding anything or adding any personal opinions.

Xuan Ying's words were thorough and detailed, leaving Mu Lingye no choice but to believe them.

He opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to find his voice: "I... I must be sick. I hit Xixi with that hand."

"Your Highness, you didn't hit it," Xuan Ying emphasized.

"But I've already had this thought in my mind." Mu Lingye stared at his hands in hatred, wishing he could chop them off to show his remorse towards Gu Junxi.
