I've been reborn, who would still raise a son from another family? Go away

Imperial Physician Ling thought that Xie Jingrui would eat alone this time like he did before, so before he could react, he pounced towards Xie Jingrui and accurately snatched a large chicken leg from the plate.

Open your mouth and eat with big mouthfuls.

"Well, it's delicious. This chicken leg tastes good." Imperial Physician Ling praised the chicken leg while eating it.

At the same time, he was carefully on guard against Xie Jingrui, fearing that he would come to snatch it from him.

Xie Jingrui stepped forward and started to pick his mouth, saying with an unpleasant expression, "If you want to live, spit out everything in the corner of your mouth."

Imperial Physician Ling closed his mouth tightly, and when Xie Jingrui was not paying attention, he chewed the chicken leg quickly and swallowed it.

Xie Jingrui's face was as black as ink, and he slapped Doctor Ling's back hard, forcing out the chicken leg that he had just swallowed.

"Ugh!" Imperial Physician Ling looked at the spitted-out chicken leg on the ground, and his expression instantly turned ugly.

Seeing Xie Jingrui feeling both aggrieved and helpless, the octogenarian's eyes suddenly turned red.

"It's just a chicken drumstick of yours. After I swallowed it, why did you have to take it out again for me? You would rather waste it than give it to an old man like me."

Imperial Physician Ling sat dejectedly on the side and started throwing a tantrum like a child.

Xie Jingrui sighed softly and actually found it a little funny.

He said to the Imperial Physician Ling, "This thing is poisonous. If I hadn't saved you just now, you would have died now. How could you have the chance to challenge me?"

Imperial Physician Ling has always cherished his life, and his face instantly darkened when he heard what Xie Jingrui said. He stretched out a hand and placed it on his own pulse to feel it.

There is indeed a slight sign of poisoning, and I am starting to feel dizzy.

Doctor Ling's face suddenly showed a smile, and he said to Xie Jingrui happily, "Your Highness, you are so good to me. Why don't you take this opportunity to say that I have been poisoned and ask the Emperor to get me out of the prison?"

"No!" Xie Jingrui refused without even thinking. "These things were sent from Liu Mansion. I don't know how many people passed through their hands. How the poison got inside, no one knows."

"If this matter is suddenly exposed, the people in Liu Mansion will be charged with murdering the prince. We can't do that."

Xie Jingrui looked at the things inside, then poured the food aside and put the empty plate back into the food box.

He looked at Doctor Ling seriously and said, "If you want to get out, you must listen to me."

When the imperial physician Ling heard that there was hope to leave this hellish place, he nodded heavily; "Your Highness, you say."

Xie Jingrui whispered a warning in his ear.

Then he fell to the ground and pretended to faint.

Upon seeing this, Imperial Physician Ling hurriedly shouted to the guards, "Someone, come here, the King of Jin has fainted."

The guard outside quickly appeared and saw Xie Jingrui fainted on the ground.

Imperial Physician Ling said to them, "The prince fainted just after eating."

As soon as he finished speaking, Imperial Physician Ling also fainted.

The guard hurriedly opened the cell, and after speaking to the jailer, several people came and carried Xie Jingrui and Imperial Physician Ling out.

Sent back to the palace.

When the emperor learned about it, he didn't care about anything else and immediately went to the Imperial Hospital to visit Xie Jingrui.

He was furious. "What happened? How did the old man get poisoned? Who told you to bring food from outside back to the prison for him to eat?"

"Investigate. If you don't find out who poisoned me, you will all come to me with your heads on your shoulders."

The people kneeling on the ground turned pale with fear; "Yes."

"Get out." Emperor Hexu said angrily.

Several people left quickly.

After finishing her meal, Liu Yueru was writing a list of guests for the banquet in the courtyard. "Mother Yan, this list is all confirmed. Please put it away first and take it out directly when you need it later."

"Okay, do we need to invite people to come to the palace clinic to prepare those banquets, or should we order them directly from the restaurant and then have them delivered together?" asked Mother Yan.

Liu Yueru thought for a moment and said, "Let's divide it into two parts. We can ask someone to come back and make snacks at home, and we can order the rest of the food from the restaurant first."

"Too."

When Mother Yan wanted to say something, there was a sudden noise outside.

Liu Yueru frowned slightly and looked outside in confusion; "What happened?"

"Madam, the soldiers are here." Lixia hurried back from the front.

"Don't panic, go out and see what's going on." Liu Yueru stood up and walked forward with some uneasiness.

When Liu Yueru arrived at the main hall, Liu Zhengtang, Liu Zimo and others were already there, and the officers and soldiers were holding food boxes in their hands.

Liu Yueru recognized the food box as hers at a glance.

Before she could ask what was going on, the official asked, "Is this food box from your Liu Mansion?"

"Yes." Liu Yueru stood up and looked at the other party and asked, "I wonder if there is any problem with the food box?"

The official cast a cold gaze on her and explained the whole story; "The prince ate the food you sent and was poisoned. He is still unconscious. Anyone who has handled the food box must come with me."

Lixia took a step forward and said to the officer, "Our wife did not handle this food box. It was made by a servant in the mansion and I took it to the prison."

"Lixia!" Liu Yueru called softly.

Lixia shook her head gently at her, signaling her not to worry.

After the officers confirmed that what Lixia said was true, they took away everyone in the Liu Mansion who had touched the food box today.

When he finally left, the officer looked meaningfully in the direction where Liu Yueru was standing.

After everyone left, Liu Zhengtang asked, "What happened?"

Liu Yueru sat down on a seat beside her and thought carefully about what happened today.

"The food was prepared by the usual people, and the dishes were delivered by those people yesterday. They were all cooked in the small kitchen in my courtyard and delivered to the prison gate by Lixia. No one else was involved during this period. Even if those people wanted to poison the food, they would not do it at this time."

"That person should have been released by someone else after Lixia was sent to the prison. The most likely person was the jailer who delivered the food box."

Liu Zimo showed a worried look on his face and said, "We are still investigating now, but I am afraid that someone will cause other troubles and point all the blame at our Liu Mansion."

Liu Yueru lowered her eyes; "The prince's injuries had just healed a little, and now he has been poisoned. I don't know how he is doing."

Liu Zhengtang looked solemn, and then he spoke to comfort Liu Yueru, "She has been sent to the Imperial Hospital. The Emperor has only ordered an investigation. It should be nothing serious. Don't worry too much. I will send someone to the palace to check on the situation later."

Liu Yueru nodded slightly, and when she raised her eyes, there was suddenly a small figure outside.
