Yun Ji nodded slightly, with a weak smile on her face: "Much better, thanks to your care."

Liu Mengli said, "You must take good care of yourself. We are all waiting for you to recover."

Jiang Yanwan patted Yun Ji's hand, her tone gentle but unquestionable: "Yes, don't think too much, getting a good rest is the most important thing. You are not just a person now, you also have to consider the child in your belly."

Hearing this, Yun Ji looked down at her abdomen with a complicated expression. She said softly, "I never thought there would be such a result, but now that I'm here, I will do my best to protect him."

Jiang Yanwan and Liu Mengli looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes. Liu Mengli immediately comforted her: "Don't worry, no matter what happens, we will be with you."

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the door. Then, Wu Junyao pushed the door open and walked in, with a trace of anxiety on his face: "I just received news that something has happened in the palace. The maid of Concubine De suddenly came to report that Concubine De had fainted."

"What?" Jiang Yanwan's face changed. "I just diagnosed her. How could she suddenly faint?"

Wu Junyao shook his head, frowning: "I don't know, the situation is very urgent, go and take a look."

Jiang Yanwan nodded and said hurriedly to Yun Ji and Liu Mengli, "You wait here for me, I'll go check out the situation." Then she hurriedly left with Wu Junyao.

Along the way, Jiang Yanwan was full of doubts. She had carefully checked Concubine De's physical condition, and although she was a little weak, she was not seriously ill. How could she suddenly faint?

Arriving at Concubine De's bedroom, Jiang Yanwan saw a chaotic scene. The maids looked panicked and gathered around Concubine De's bed. She quickly stepped forward, pushed aside the crowd, and saw that Concubine De was pale, breathing weakly, and had fallen into a coma.

"What happened?" Jiang Yanwan asked while checking Concubine De's pulse.

An elderly maid replied tremblingly: "Just now, when the queen was about to take the medicine, she suddenly said that her chest was stuffy and painful, and then she fainted."

Jiang Yanwan frowned even more tightly. She quickly checked Concubine De's symptoms and thought to herself, "Something is wrong. This doesn't look like an ordinary illness. It's more like poisoning."

She immediately ordered, "Quick, go get some detoxifying herbs. I need to detoxify Concubine De immediately."

The maids hurriedly responded and left, and soon they brought the herbs that Jiang Yanwan needed. Jiang Yanwan quickly prepared the antidote and carefully fed it to Concubine De.

After a while, Concubine De's breathing gradually stabilized, and her face also turned a little red. Jiang Yanwan breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart was still full of doubts: "What is going on? How could Concubine De suddenly be poisoned?"

At this moment, Wu Junyao walked in. He looked at the still unconscious Concubine De and asked in a low voice, "What's the situation?"

"She's stabilized, but her condition is very strange." Jiang Yanwan raised her head, her eyes solemn, "I suspect she was poisoned, but when was the poison administered? And who administered it?"

Wu Junyao frowned slightly, pondered for a moment and said, "Things in the palace are complicated. Maybe someone doesn't want her to get pregnant again." He paused and continued, "I will send someone to investigate this matter thoroughly, but you have to be careful. Someone has targeted Concubine De, and they may also target you."

Jiang Yanwan nodded: "I understand, I will be careful."

At this moment, Concubine De suddenly coughed and slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were a little confused, and when she saw Jiang Yanwan, she slowly regained some consciousness: "Doctor Jiang...what's wrong with me?"

Jiang Yanwan said softly, "Empress Defei, you were just poisoned, but you are fine now. You need to rest well."

De Fei's face changed, and her voice trembled: "Poisoned? Who... who wants to harm me?"

Jiang Yanwan shook her head: "I don't know yet, but don't worry, the governor has sent people to investigate. You just need to rest and recuperate, and leave the rest to us."

Defei held Jiang Yanwan's hand tightly, with a hint of pleading in her voice: "Doctor Jiang, you are the only one I can trust now, please save me."

Jiang Yanwan patted her hand gently and said firmly: "Don't worry, Madam. I will do my best to protect you."

Defei nodded, tears flashing in her eyes: "Thank you, Doctor Jiang."

Jiang Yanwan comforted Concubine De for a while before leaving the palace. She looked at Wu Junyao who was waiting outside the door, feeling heavy-hearted: "General Wu, we may be involved in a bigger conspiracy."

Wu Junyao nodded, his eyes firm: "No matter what the conspiracy is, we must investigate it to the end and not let innocent people get hurt."

Jiang Yanwan nodded in agreement, but the uneasiness in her heart lingered. She knew that from this moment on, things would become more complicated and dangerous.

"What should we do next?" Wu Junyao asked.

Jiang Yanwan pondered for a moment and said slowly: "We must find out who is behind all this and protect Concubine De and other possible victims. As for Yun Ji, I'm worried that she will also become a target. We have to strengthen our protection for her."

Wu Junyao nodded: "I will arrange some personnel to ensure her safety."

Jiang Yanwan raised her head with a firm look: "No matter how dangerous the front is, we can't retreat."

At this moment, a soldier came running over and reported nervously, "Commander-in-chief, something bad has happened. We just received news that Miss Liu Mengli has been attacked!"

Jiang Yanwan and Wu Junyao's expressions changed at the same time, and they asked almost in unison: "How is she now?"

The soldier gasped and replied, "Miss Liu suffered some minor injuries, but fortunately she was alert and escaped. She has now been safely escorted back to the camp."

Jiang Yanwan breathed a sigh of relief, but then became anxious again: "We must go back immediately and not put them in danger again!"

Wu Junyao nodded and quickly ordered: "Prepare the horses, we will set off immediately."

On the way back to the camp, Jiang Yanwan felt more and more depressed. She realized that things were much more complicated than she had imagined, and there might be a bigger conspiracy behind it. And she and her friends have become the core targets of this conspiracy.

After returning to the camp, Jiang Yanwan rushed to Liu Mengli's tent as soon as possible. Seeing that Liu Mengli was receiving treatment, she felt a little relieved.

"Mengli, are you okay?" Jiang Yanwan asked with concern.

Liu Mengli smiled slightly. Although her face was a little pale, her eyes were still firm. "I'm fine. I didn't expect them to take action so quickly."

Jiang Yanwan held her hand and said firmly: "We will protect you and will not let them succeed."

Liu Mengli nodded and said softly, "I know, but... we have to be more careful next time. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. If we are not careful, we may lose everything."

Jiang Yanwan deeply agreed with this. She knew that the current situation had become extremely dangerous and she had to be cautious in every step. But no matter how difficult the road ahead was, she would not back down.

"We will not lose." Jiang Yanwan said firmly, "No matter how strong the enemy is, we will defeat them."

At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the tent, and Wu Junyao walked in with a serious expression: "I have arranged additional guards, they will guard here 24 hours a day to ensure your safety."

Liu Mengli nodded and expressed her gratitude: "With you here, I feel relieved."
