"The princess in your residence has been coughing up blood today and has fallen into a coma. My master is very worried and has asked the chief imperial physician, Lord Cao, to come and treat her, but the situation is not optimistic.

For the sake of Princess An's heart, my master hopes that you will give the thing to him first. He will never go back on his promise to you."

Qingzhu bowed earnestly and saluted her again.

Tao Yuwei stood in the pavilion, looking at the emerald green lotus pond and admiring the fish swimming back and forth in the lake for a while, then turned around.

"No need to be polite. I will give your master whatever he wants."

Tian Ce has been sent to prison by the villain, and it is difficult for the Tian family to make a comeback. Tian Linwen is definitely unwilling to become the son of a criminal. In order to save himself, he will definitely ask the male protagonist for help. After Tian Linwen makes the move to cut ties with the Tian family, the best is yet to come.

The evidence in her hand, which was salvaged from the palace lake, was about the villain's maternal grandfather, Duke Zhuguo.

Duke Zhuguo was a famous general who guarded Mobei in the Great Zhou Dynasty. He was accused of treason and deliberately suffered a defeat. The previous emperor sentenced his entire family to immediate execution.

The villain's biological mother is none other than Prince Yong's wife. It is said that she has been seriously ill for many years. In order to reassure his mother and let her go without any regrets, the villain decides to use the evidence in her hands to overturn the case of Duke Zhuguo.

This is good. With the big villain around, she can just sit aside and watch the show with peace of mind.

After all, those who had murdered the family of Duke Zhuguo had already pointed their spearheads at the General's Mansion.

If the big villain takes action, I'm sure those people will be killed faster.

Hearing this, Qingzhu raised his head in surprise and said, "Thank you, Princess Anle, for your kindness. This is a thank-you gift from my master. Please accept it!"

Qingzhu took out an exquisite wooden box from his sleeve and handed it to the head maid Yunxiao with both hands.

When Tao Yuwei heard that there was a thank-you gift, she was very curious about what the other party would give her, and motioned Yunxiao to take it.

When it was handed to her, she opened it and saw a wooden box full of silver bills.

Tao Yuwei looked at the brand new banknotes inside, her delicate little face beaming with joy. From her reaction, you could tell that this was the right gift.

The silver notes in this wooden box are worth at least 30,000 taels. The other party is so generous, she can't be too stingy.

Tao Yuwei closed the wooden box and temporarily handed it to Yunxiao to hold for her.

She took out a small iron box wrapped in a square from her sleeve and handed it to the other party.

"This is exactly what your master needs. This princess has never opened it since the moment I got it, so I don't know what's inside. Now, this princess is handing it over to you."

Qingzhu took the heavy small iron box in astonishment. He was happy for his master.

The master had been investigating the case for years but had no clue. The appearance of Princess Anle brought a turning point to the difficult case.

Princess Anle is so strange. How could she carry such an important thing with her?

Besides, although this iron box looks small, it is surprisingly heavy. With such a heavy weight, how could Princess Anle easily lift her arm with it in her sleeve?

Tao Yuwei knew that he had doubts in his heart, but there was no need to clear them up for him.

This thing was indeed very heavy, so for safety reasons, she placed it in the space of the emerald green ring on her finger.

Just now, she just used the cover of her sleeve to take it out from the space.

After getting the things, Qingzhu bowed and said goodbye to Tao Yuwei.

But she stopped him, "I like the gift your master sent me very much. In view of his sincere cooperation, I will give him an extra gift."

Tao Yuwei took out a small bottle of liquid and handed it to Qingzhu, "Take this bottle of medicine back and give it to the princess in the mansion. It may help her get through the illness in the past few days."

She didn't know what disease Xiao Lichen's mother had. The bottle of medicine she gave was a nutritional medicine to repair the body's functions. After taking it, it would have a certain repairing effect on the weak body tortured by the illness.

This medicine was developed in the apocalyptic era to repair exhausted and injured bodies after a battle with zombies. She still had about a hundred bottles of it in her space ring, which were the remaining stockpiles she had stockpiled before.

As for what effect Xiao Lichen's mother experienced after taking the medicine, she had no idea, after all, she didn't understand medical knowledge.

After taking it, the worst result is that it can only save your life for a longer period of time.

"After drinking this bottle of liquid medicine, you will sleep for half an hour first, and the effect will only take effect after you wake up."

After Tao Yuwei and Qingzhu discussed how to take the medicine, they didn't say anything more.

Qingzhu didn't know the value of the bottle of medicine. After taking the medicine, he hurried away with the iron box.

Yunxiao handed her the wooden box in his hand.

Tao Yuwei accepted it with peace of mind, "You have been following me for most of the day, you must be tired, go out and have a rest, I will take a nap, don't wake me up if it's nothing serious."

After waking up, she would go to the palace again to remind Zhao Chong and Emperor Jianchang to be more careful about the food and drinks they came into contact with.

She had no idea who was planning to poison His Majesty, so she had to find that person as soon as possible.

No, I’m too sleepy. Let’s talk about it after I wake up!

Yunxiao and Baishuang left the room and closed the door. Tao Yuwei liked these two maids very much. They were quiet, sensible and kept their mouths shut. She put the wooden box into the space ring, yawned, and fell asleep.

Wu found Tao Zhihong in the study. He was discussing something with his subordinates. After he decisively arranged the tasks, they were the only two left in the study. Before she opened her mouth, Tao Zhihong knew what she wanted to say.

"I know all about my daughter's behavior outside today. You don't have to worry too much. She did a good job. As for His Majesty, I will go to the palace now to apologize to him."

Mrs. Wu was still worried, but she also knew that her husband had to get through this. "No matter what the result is, I will face it with you."

Tao Zhihong walked over to his wife and patted her shoulder comfortingly, "Don't worry about me doing the work. Those people want to overthrow me in one go, but they don't have the ability or strength to do so."

Looking at her husband's back as he walked out of the study with firm steps, Mrs. Wu's heart was no longer panicked.

Believing in her husband's ability, she waited for him to come back home.

As for Qingzhu, he rushed back to Prince Yong's Mansion with the iron box and the medicine given by Tao Yuwei. Halfway through the journey, he was intercepted by a group of men in black.

This group of assassins was numerous and powerful. Several guards accompanying the palace were either killed or injured. Qingzhu's arm was injured in the fight with these assassins.

Several soldiers from the Wucheng Bingmasi who were responsible for patrolling the streets discovered them.

These assassins did not want to fight and fled decisively.

Qingzhu was sent back to Prince Yong's Mansion by the people from the Five Cities Military Department.

Xiao Lichen was very angry when he received the news.

Who on earth dares to pick a fight with him so blatantly?

Qingzhu is his man. Could it be that those people already know that he has obtained the evidence to frame his grandfather's family?

Xiao Lichen went over in his mind the people who might attack him.

I couldn't figure it out for a while.

He first called the palace doctor to clean Qingzhu's wound, and then immediately sent a message to the deputy commander of Xiaoyuwei, ordering him to find out the truth about Qingzhu's assassination as soon as possible.

After taking a look at his bandaged right arm, Qingzhu bowed and said, "Master, the things have been obtained. Before leaving, Princess Anle also gave an extra bottle of liquid medicine to the princess."

Xiao Lichen didn't bother to ask about the evidence Tao Yuwei gave him. Instead, he asked urgently, "Where's that bottle of liquid medicine? Give it to me quickly."

Qingzhu quickly took out a small white porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Xiao Lichen.

Taking the small porcelain bottle, Xiao Lichen held it in his hand and asked solemnly,

"What did she tell you?"

Qingzhu repeated to his master every word that Tao Yuwei said to him.

After hearing this, Xiao Lichen picked up the medicine bottle in his hand and told another guard, Hei Yan, "Push me to the princess's courtyard."

The chief imperial physician diagnosed that his mother had been depressed for years, and coupled with old injuries to her internal organs, she might not be able to hold on any time soon.

With this bottle of Anle medicine, my mother's health may get better.

The medicine she gave him was not ordinary medicine. After he took her medicine, his weak and heavy body became much lighter and he no longer coughed up blood.

His short-lived body, which was poisoned, was miraculously able to stand up freely after taking Princess Anle's medicine, and get out of the wheelchair like a completely normal person.

He was looking forward to seeing what amazing effects his mother would see after taking the medicine.

When he arrived at the door of Prince Yong's wife Han Lingyun's room, Xiao Lichen saw that Concubine Liu had come to pay her respects with her son Xiao Haoran.

Xiao Lichen directly ordered Hei Yan to ask Concubine Liu and her son to leave.

Some people just can't stand seeing his mother doing well and come here to make trouble. If that's the case, there's no need to be polite.

When Concubine Liu saw Xiao Lichen walking past them and their son without even looking at them, her face looked very unhappy.

She clenched the handkerchief in her hand, snorted coldly, and left with her son Xiao Haoran, who had an angry face.

The person inside is almost dying, but he still wants to hide it from everyone. Everyone knows that all these years, that woman's heart has not been with the prince, but she has shamelessly occupied the position of the queen for many years.

So what if she is the principal wife? Over the years, the prince has never set foot in her courtyard. She has only a nice title, but she is still a widow.

Besides, it was fortunate that she married the prince. If it were any other family, she would have been poisoned to death by her husband's family long ago.

When she was a girl, she was too arrogant to make friends with a girl like her, the daughter of a minor official.

As a result, due to his excessive arrogance, her father collaborated with the enemy and committed treason. He was ruthless and colluded with the northern barbarians in Mobei. He killed the soldiers of the Great Zhou and deliberately suffered a defeat, which almost wiped out the 500,000-strong army of the Great Zhou. Fortunately, someone was not afraid of the power of the Duke of Zhuguo and exposed his crimes in front of the late emperor.

The late emperor ordered that all the Zhuguogong's men be beheaded in public, and that the crime was not extended to married women. That was how the woman was able to live in peace for many years.

Perhaps God felt that the Han family had committed many evil things, so he punished them by taking retribution from the son born to that woman.

As a result, Prince Yong suffered from a strange disease and did not look in good health.

This is the situation she is happy to see.

Her Ran'er has grown up, and his ability and performance in serving the prince are no worse than those of the Prince of Yong. Why can a disabled person be named the Prince of Yong, while her healthy and outstanding son has to lag behind?

"Why are you so arrogant? Before long, maybe both mother and son will die of illness!"

Xiao Haoran narrowed his eyes with a cunning look, and spoke sarcastically in an unconvinced manner.

"Ran Er, don't be angry, let's go back."

After Concubine Liu and her son left, Hei Yan pushed Xiao Lichen and came to Han Lingyun's bed with peace of mind.

"Go out and guard outside first. No one can come in without my order."

Xiao Lichen gave serious instructions, and Hei Yan and several maids serving on the side quickly retreated outside the door to guard the mother and son.

After everyone left, Xiao Lichen got out of the wheelchair, reached out to help up the unconscious Princess Yong, opened the bottle cap, and carefully poured all the liquid inside into his mother's mouth.

In the front yard of Prince Yong's mansion, Concubine Liu ran to Prince Yong Xiao Deyi to complain.

"Your Majesty, the prince is too rude. As his stepmother, I heard that the princess was unwell, so I went to visit her with Haoran. But before we even entered the house, the prince kicked us out.

My sister is in poor health and doesn't have the energy to discipline him. You have to give him more advice to prevent him from being arrogant and unfilial. If the news gets out, it will affect the reputation of our Prince Yong's Mansion."

Seeing Concubine Liu crying and wiping her tears with her handkerchief, Prince Yong's face turned dark.

"Since you know he has a bad temper, you and your son should not come forward."

Prince Yong threw down the calligraphy brush in his hand and warned solemnly.

Concubine Liu didn't dare to stay any longer. She wiped the tears from her face and left quickly.

Prince Yong could no longer practice his calligraphy. He came to the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the daisies all over the yard. Longing flashed in his elegant peach blossom eyes.

A gust of summer wind blew by, and he was immersed in memories of the past, which were like cracked land, falling apart and could never be put together again.

Never mind, let him go!

When he arrived at the courtyard where Prince Yong's wife was, Hei Yan and several maids who were guarding the door were so shocked that they widened their eyes in disbelief.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Hei Yan bowed respectfully.

"Please ask your master to come out for a moment. I have something to say to him."

Xiao Deyi stood in the yard, unwilling to take another step forward.

Being able to come here is already his limit.

"Your Majesty, the prince has ordered that no one will see him until he comes out."

Hei Yan was quite bold. He answered calmly, which made Xiao Deyi's resolute face turn as dark as ink.

"Evil creature, tell him to get out now."

Xiao Deyi already suspected that his wife, who had been seriously ill for many years, had died.

Otherwise, his son would not have done this, hiding in that man's room and not coming out.

Thinking of this, Xiao Deyi's figure flashed, and his tall figure appeared in front of the door.

Hei Yan remembered his master's instructions. He was about to intercept him, but Prince Yong got there first and pushed open the door.

Xiao Lichen was sitting in a wheelchair at this moment, anxiously guarding the bed, focusing his whole heart on his mother who had fallen into a coma. When he heard the movement at the door, he turned around.

A tall figure appeared at the door under the sunlight, with a strong murderous intent surging from him.

"go out!"

There was a depth and mystery in his cold peach blossom eyes, and the words that came out of his tightly pursed lips were ruthless and indifferent.

"Your mother is dead? In that case, you are expelled from Prince Yong's mansion."

Xiao Deyi looked down at his son sitting in a wheelchair with cold eyes and spoke in an extremely cold tone.

His eyes, from beginning to end, never fell on the person lying motionless on the bed.
