He was misunderstood by his own mother as having a broken sleeve, and there was no one like him.

Tangze and the others laughed so hard that their cheeks hurt.

Xie Jingyan looked at Shen Wan and said, "Don't you want to ask Lu Cheng?"

Shen Wan shook his head, "No need to ask."

She originally wanted to ask Lu Cheng whether the strange things that happened to the Yun and Li families last night were done by Lu Cheng, and what he thought about Yun Rui. Now that she knew that Lu Cheng had successfully persuaded Marquis Xuanping and his wife to propose marriage, how could she still ask? necessary.

Without interrupting their conversation, Shen Wan took the maid back to the house.

Xie Jingyan and the others stayed in the study for a while, and then the dishes cooked by Li Yuchu were delivered from the outer courtyard.

Twelve dishes and one soup.

All the dishes cooked are Li Yuchu's specialty.

There are everything that flies in the sky, runs on the ground, and swims in the water.

Prince Yanping and Tangze were distinguished enough, but they did not often eat royal meals. They usually only tasted them when attending palace banquets. However, palace banquets mostly focused on cold dishes. Once the dishes were cold, the taste would lose three points. It's so delicious fresh out of the pan.

The meal had just begun, and they had already agreed to come over for dinner next time.

Here, Xie Jingyan and the others were eating in the main hall, mingling with each other and talking and laughing. Over there, Shen Wan was eating in the inner room. The food was naturally cooked by Li Yuchu, but there were not as many as twelve dishes. After all, she was the only one who picked six. Shen Wan likes it and sends it.

Even Liudao Shen Wan couldn't finish the food. Half of it went into her stomach, and the other half went into Yin Shuang and Haitang's stomachs.

As a maid, you can eat royal meals with your master. How many lifetimes of practice do you have to practice to have this blessing?

The sun was hottest at noon, so Shen Wan didn't go out for a walk after lunch. She walked back and forth in the house for a while, sat on the couch and read a book. When she felt sleepy, she was ready to go to bed and take a nap.

Just as he reached the bedside, Haitang came in and said, "Princess, Crown Prince Cheng vomited blood and fainted in Huguo Temple..."

Shen Wan was shocked.

Didn't Xie Jingyan send people to guard the Huguo Temple? Why did he let Prince Cheng be harmed?

Worried, Shen Wan turned around and went out. Over there, Xie Jingyan and the others had eaten and drank. When they came out of the main hall, seeing Shen Wan's face full of worry, Xie Jingyan said, "I'm going to Huguo Temple."

The emperor gave Xie Jingyan the task of helping Prince Cheng find out the poisoner. If something happened to Prince Cheng, he would definitely go and ask about it.

Not only did Xie Jingyan have to go, he also had to take Doctor Tao with him.

After watching Xie Jingyan and the others leave Mo Yuxuan, Shen Wan returned to the house. She was so sleepy just now, but was interrupted by this, and her sleepiness was gone.

Lying on the bed facing the ceiling, I didn't fall asleep for a long time.

Shen Wan couldn't understand why Xie Jingyan had sent people to watch and Prince Cheng knew that someone was harming him, but he still fell into the trap. The person who poisoned him behind the scenes was so powerful that it was hard to guard against.

If she couldn't guess, Shen Wan stopped guessing. She closed her eyes and let her mind go. After a while, she fell asleep.

After falling asleep, it was already evening when she woke up. Xie Jingyan was back before Shen Wanren got up.

Seeing him walking in, Shen Wan hurriedly opened the quilt and got out of bed and asked, "Is Prince Cheng okay?"

Xie Jingyan said, "He's fine. He was just pretending to vomit blood and fainted."

Shen Wan, "...???"

"Pretending?" Shen Wan's mouth twitched.

"You're all right, why would Crown Prince Cheng do such a scary thing?"

Even she was worried when she heard the news that Prince Cheng vomited blood and fainted, let alone those who cared about him, such as Princess Cheng and Princess Yong'an.

Shen Wan felt that Prince Cheng deserved a beating, so she heard Xie Jingyan say, "He vomited blood and fainted, so he was just pretending. The person who poisoned him was caught."

Shen Wan, "..."

Shen Wan silently took back her words that Prince Cheng deserved a beating, and asked, "Who poisoned Prince Cheng?"

Xie Jingyan sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and then said, "Today the Queen Mother sent someone to Huguo Temple to visit Prince Cheng and brought some cakes..."

Prince Cheng was sent to Huguo Temple by the Queen Mother. Xie Jingyan and Eunuch Yuan went to see him together and told Prince Cheng to be careful about what he ate in Huguo Temple and not to eat anything that he could not eat. He didn't say it clearly, but Prince Cheng could guess that his weakness in recent years was not only due to birth, but someone was harming him. He wanted to live like a normal person so much, even if he couldn't bear to eat the vegetarian food at Huguo Temple, he I also force myself to eat every meal.

He kept Xie Jingyan's advice in mind and would not eat his favorite pastry even if it was brought by his mother, Princess Cheng.

The maid sent by the Queen Mother today was also the maid who usually went to Prince Cheng's Mansion to see him on behalf of the Queen Mother. Prince Cheng was wary of pastries, but was not wary of the maids. However, he couldn't resist the maid and kept saying that the Queen Mother cared about her and specially asked the imperial chef to do it for him. She liked to eat cakes, but when he didn't eat a bite, she even took a piece and handed it to him.

Prince Cheng became suspicious. The palace maid only came to see him on behalf of the Queen Mother. Whether he ate the cakes or not would not affect the palace maid's return to the palace, but she insisted that he eat them. He didn't think it was a problem before, but after Xie Jingyan reminded him to be on guard against eating them. With the situation in his mouth, this had to make him suspicious.

Prince Cheng took the pastry, winked at the boy serving beside him, and took a bite of the pastry. The boy spoke to distract the palace maid, and he took the opportunity to spit out the pastry.

When the maid saw that he had eaten the cake, she was ready to return to the palace. Prince Cheng said that he would write a letter to the Queen Mother, so the maid could only wait for him.

Prince Cheng dipped his pen in ink and was only halfway through writing a letter. Suddenly, he spurted out a mouthful of blood, dyeing the letter red.

The palace maid suddenly turned pale with fright, and the entire Huguo Temple was in chaos.

Crown Prince Cheng is not an ordinary person. He is the son of King Cheng, the biological brother of the emperor’s mother. He is also the only son of King Cheng. He was attracted by the blessed land of Huguo Temple, so he was sent to Huguo Temple by the Empress Dowager to rest in order to become the crown prince. If something goes wrong in Huguo Temple, the entire Huguo Temple will suffer.

Huguo Temple quickly sent someone to report to King Cheng. Princess Cheng knew that the people sent by Xie Jingyan did not know that Crown Prince Cheng was pretending, and felt that they had neglected their duties. They quickly sent a letter to Xie Jingyan to find out.

Shen Wan was shocked and said, "The Queen Mother loves Crown Prince Cheng so much, how could she poison Crown Prince Cheng?"

The Queen Mother sent people to visit Prince Cheng and bring him food. No one would be prepared to worry about food problems, but the person who could instigate the palace maids around the Queen Mother to murder Prince Cheng must be someone from the palace.

Instructing the people around the Queen Mother to murder the Queen Mother's grandson is really very courageous.

Shen Wan really wanted to know who this person was who borrowed the courage from heaven. She asked, "Can we find out who ordered the palace maid?"

Xie Jingyan's eyes were dark. When he rushed to Huguo Temple, King Cheng had already arrived. The maid whom King Cheng was interrogating in the Zen room was guarded outside the Zen room. Xie Jingyan's people could not get close. Therefore, Shen Wan's question, Xie Jingyan Can't answer.

He only said, "King Cheng broke the neck of the palace maid."
