Su Zhengyang choked, and his eyes rolled back, his face flushed, and his neck became thick.

Chu Yanchen: "...Ask the court doctor to check on him."

Are you planning to eat yourself to death? Eat yourself like this?

I thought he was in trouble... the poison was taking effect! Unexpectedly, he choked!

Chu Yanchen rolled his eyes fiercely.

The court doctor came quickly and beat his abdomen for a while before he vomited out the food he was choking on and finally he breathed a sigh of relief.

Chu Yanchen asked the court doctor to take his pulse to see if he was poisoned.

The court doctor carefully felt the patient's pulse and said, "No poison."

Chu Yanchen was puzzled, "Is he poisoned?"

The court doctor shook his head again.

"Your Highness, I am not very knowledgeable and I don't understand witchcraft, so naturally I can't see it."

Doctor Liu is much older than Nanxing, and is more than old enough to be her grandfather.

The palace physician specially employed by Prince Jing's Mansion is naturally no ordinary person and is qualified to work in the Imperial Medical Bureau.

Doctor Liu couldn't see anything, so how did Nanxing determine that there was poison and a Gu?

Chu Yanchen felt that he did not distrust Mingli at all, he just felt that... Nanxing might have made a wrong judgment.

He immediately found Song Mingli, who was practicing calligraphy with Jingyou, pulled her out of Jingyou's study, and whispered his thoughts to her.

Song Mingli glanced at him calmly and said, "Oh, no hurry, Your Majesty, wait until the full moon night to see."

Song Mingli was afraid that he couldn't explain himself clearly, so he specially asked someone to invite Nanxing over.

"Given to Su Zhengyang? Oh, that Seven Days Powder is hard to detect. It is a secret technique of the previous dynasty. It is the poison used by the previous dynasty to control the dead soldiers."

"It only occurs on full moon nights. It has no effect on normal days."

"As for the Gu poison, the mother Gu should be able to detect it very quickly, but the Gu poison is more hidden, and it is difficult for ordinary people to detect it just by looking at the pulse."

After listening to Chu Yanchen's question, Nanxing explained calmly and confidently.

Seeing that Chu Yanchen still had doubts in his eyes, she was not in a hurry, "Your Highness, just wait and see what happens."

After all, the prince is his elder brother, so it is understandable that he finds it hard to accept that the prince is plotting against his only son.

"How did you know about the secret techniques of the previous dynasty and how did you identify them?" Chu Yanchen asked with a frown.

Seeing that he suspected Nanxing, Song Mingli looked displeased.

But before she could speak, Nanxing blinked at her and smiled.

Nanxing was expressing that she didn't care and wasn't angry.

Anyway, she is not from Prince Jing’s Mansion, she is only Song Mingli’s person!

As long as Song Mingli believes in her, that's enough.

"Several of my grandfathers were imperial physicians and once served as court judges. After the previous dynasty fell, my great-grandfather hid his identity and became a quack doctor, avoiding the court and the public."

"But all his medical skills, as well as the medical books and secret techniques he compiled, have been preserved."

"When I could barely speak, I sat on my grandfather's lap and listened to him read medical books."

Nan Xing did not regard Chu Yanchen's question as a doubt on her medical skills.

Even if there were doubts, it was normal for a young woman like her to have her medical skills questioned, and she didn't take it to heart.

Chu Yanchen's face looked very ugly.

"Go and get busy. You said you wanted to study the poisonous insect, but now you can't do it." Song Mingli said to Nanxing with some regret.

Nan Xing chuckled, "It's so boring to just study the sub-Gu. Now that the sub-Gu has a host, it's just right to study it."

"Please allow me to go to the dungeon to check on Su Zhengyang's condition and the growth of the sub-Gu in his body."

Chu Yanchen: “…”

Nan Xing's words were like a sharp knife, stabbing him right in the heart.

If Nanxing hadn't discovered the poison, the Gu might have been in Jingyou's body now... If Jingyou suffered like this because of his "brotherhood", how would he have the face to face them and their son?

He said that he would compensate the mother and son, protect them, and give them a good life.

But now, the life is even more miserable than that in Changning Marquis Mansion.

Chu Yanchen felt a little embarrassed, but Song Mingli had already returned to the study and continued practicing calligraphy with Jingyou.

At night, Chu Yanchen returned to the main courtyard. When he was about to enter the bedroom, he found that the bedroom door was bolted from the inside.

He pushed twice but failed to push it open.

"Mingli..." Chu Yanchen's voice trembled.

He...he was locked out by the princess? !

"I've gone to bed. Your Highness, please sleep in the study tonight." After Song Mingli said this, he turned off the lights inside.

What do you mean it's already stopped? It's obviously... intentional.

Chu Yanchen felt depressed, but he only felt guilty, not angry.

It is normal to be angry when knowing etiquette.

He failed to protect the mother and child and put them in danger. It was his dereliction of duty.

"Then I'll...come over tomorrow morning."

His wife is angry, he has to comfort her quickly!

He couldn't get in tonight, and his mind was in a mess, so he probably couldn't say anything useful.

I should go to the study and reflect on it, and then try to coax my wife tomorrow.

On the way to the study, Chu Yanchen heard the sound of two people arguing in the distance.

Who is arguing and quarreling in the palace so late at night?

Chu Yanchen quickly concealed his breath and quietly moved closer to listen.

"If you marry me, you won't have parents-in-law to serve, and you won't have sisters-in-law... My brother is gone."

"All my salary and property will be given to you. If you want a child, we'll take it. If you don't want to have one yourself, we can adopt it, or we can keep it."

"I will never take a concubine to trouble you. Isn't there a promise that we will be together for life? I swear, I..."

This is Ling Feng’s voice!

Chu Yanchen glared slightly and tilted his ears. Didn't he want to swear? Who covered his mouth?

"Men's words are lies! What's the point of your swearing?"

"When the prince wanted to marry my young lady, his words were more beautiful than singing, but what about now? He doesn't even believe what my young lady said."

"He would rather trust someone who wants to harm his son and plays with the prince's life in his hands!"

"Yes, the prince did not take a concubine, but this kind of relationship between husband and wife, in my opinion, is more hurtful."

"So, let's end our relationship here and never mention it again. It won't be too painful to end it before it starts. You can marry someone else. I'm not suitable for a family, so I won't delay you."

It was Molan's voice.

When Chu Yanchen heard footsteps approaching, he quickly hid in the shadow of the osmanthus tree.

He watched Molan walk away without any reluctance.

He was about to go see Ling Feng, but he heard the sound of sword dancing as if to vent his emotions.

Chu Yanchen: “…”

Because of his behavior, his subordinates' marriage was delayed?

Chu Yanchen's already depressed mood became even more depressed now.

He didn't want to comfort Ling Feng, so he told Ling Feng to vent his emotions on his own.

……

At this time, in a duty room in the East Palace, Cheng Li, who had fallen asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.

"The sub-Gu has found a host!"

The reaction of the mother Gu in his body let him know that the third child Gu had also found a host.

Cheng Li suddenly sat up from the bed, feeling excited and a little nervous.

Although Zi Gu cannot affect him, what if it turns out to be an unimportant person? Wouldn't that be a waste of his precious Zi Gu?
