When Liu Yanyan saw Butler Zhou leave, she handed the handkerchief in her hand to Yan Ze, "Yan Ze, wipe it off! Drink some water. I feel so bad seeing you vomit like this."

Zhou Yanze felt uncomfortable when he saw Yanyan's eyes flashing with disdain. He took Yanyan's handkerchief and asked coquettishly, "Yanyan, do you dislike me?"

Yanyan's eyes wandered, and she said calmly, "No, how could I dislike you? You are my husband."

Seeing this, Zhou Yanze was about to kiss her.

Liu Yanyan had no choice but to push him away, her whole body showing rejection, and said to Yuzhen, "Go get some salt water for the prince, so that he can wash himself properly."

Yuzhen bowed and said, "I will go right away."

Zhou Yanze was even more sad when he heard this, "Yanyan, you really dislike me. I am so sad and heartbroken."

Liu Yanyan said helplessly, "Of course not! My husband is handsome no matter what. I just feel sorry for you. You just vomited for so long, will your throat feel uncomfortable?"

Zhou Yanze smiled. "Yanyan loves me the most. Yanyan, who do you think did this to Li? It's not easy to do this in the mansion. Everything that comes in and out of the mansion has been checked."

Liu Yanyan thought of the rouge that Concubine He had given her but had refused, and that had appeared on Li's dressing table in the morning. She didn't know if Li had used it or not. "How can I know? I spend very little time in the mansion every day, so it's not easy to make a conclusion. If I wrongly accuse someone, I won't be able to explain myself. They might be jealous of me."

Zhou Yanze said, "Yanyan, just tell me what you want. I will send someone to investigate later. I won't randomly pronounce someone dead. Just tell me what you want."

Seeing this, Liu Yanyan slowly spoke, "I just remembered it. A few days ago, when I was paying my respects to the Second Prince, Concubine He sneaked out alone. I asked Yuzhen to follow her and found out that she went to see the Fifth Prince. When she came back, she wanted to give me a box of rouge. I already had a rouge shop, but I didn't take it and returned it to her. Today, I found a box of rouge on Li's dressing table, so I got a little suspicious. But the famous doctor hired by Butler Zhou couldn't find any problem, so I don't know if the rouge was poisoned."

Zhou Yanze held Yanyan's delicate hand and said distressedly, "Don't worry, Yanyan, I will send someone to investigate this matter. I will never wrongly accuse anyone. Once I find out who it is, I will not let her go."

She leaned gently on his shoulder and said softly, "Okay, I believe you, you will be able to find it out."

At this time, Yuzhen came over with salt water. Yanyan raised her hand to take the glass cup, fed it to Yanze's mouth, and signaled him to rinse his mouth quickly.

Zhou Yanze took the glass cup with a faint smile and said, "Yan Yan, I don't want you to serve me. You are my princess, not a maid in the mansion. Just let the maids do these things." After saying that, he let go of Yan Yan and got up to wash up.

When Yanyan saw him leave, she showed a little disgust and motioned Yuye to take all the things away. She endured the nausea and walked to the window to get some fresh air. The sour and stinky smell was very nauseating.

Seeing this, Zhou Yanze's eyes became more gentle, with a smile on his face. He washed carefully, then walked to the window and hugged Yanyan's slender waist. "Yanyan, smell it. I'm done washing. I smell good now! Can you smell it? It smells good, doesn't it?"

Yanyan pushed him away in disdain and turned her head slightly, "Smells good, smells good, Yanze smells the best."

Zhou Yanze's eyes flashed with annoyance when he saw this. Yanyan really disliked him. He was afraid that today's tenderness would be over. He couldn't help but blame Li in his heart, but said gently, "Yanyan, don't dislike me. I have washed it clean. Look, it is so clean."

Yanyan looked at his handsome face, and felt distressed. However, when she thought of how he had vomited just now, she couldn't help but turn her head away, still a little disgusted. "Yanze, how could I dislike you? You think too much. Go back and rest first!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yanze pretended to kiss her.

Yanyan closed her eyes and turned her head away, looking like she was resisting. She heard his chuckle in her ears, "Yanyan, open your eyes! I won't bully you. I'll go back and wash myself properly."

When Yanyan raised her eyes, Zhou Yanze was already walking out with a smug smile on his face. She realized that she was being teased and her face turned red with anger. "Really? How can you have such a bad taste?"

Zhou Yanze rarely did this. After he walked away, he made a face at Yanyan.

Seeing this, Yanyan couldn't help but chuckle. With a bright smile on her face, she picked up the handkerchief with her delicate hands and waved it gently. When she saw him walking away, she came to the inner room and said to Yuzhu, "Investigate the matter of Concubine Li, so that no one can frame us and we won't have the chance to fight back. Also, the main courtyard must be guarded well, and no unclean things can be allowed to get in."

Yuzhu nodded gently and massaged the princess' shoulders. "I will definitely manage the main courtyard well and prevent anyone from interfering. However, the prince is investigating the matter of Concubine Li. Would it be bad if we take action to investigate?"

Liu Yanyan said coldly, "There's nothing wrong with it. If someone framed me, I would be able to think of a solution immediately. I don't believe that the person who did it would not collect all the evidence."

偏院

Concubine Li took the cake and ate it in small bites, listening quietly to Lihua talking.

"Master, these famous doctors outside were all invited by the prince for the concubine. They said they must cure the concubine's face and find out who poisoned her."

Concubine Li touched her belly and raised her lips slightly. "The prince dotes on the concubine very much. He spends the most time with her. How could he bear to see his beloved girl disfigured? I should not have gone to see her. She looks like that. I feel sick just thinking about it. I don't know how she can live like this now."

Lihua looked at Master Li and said, "Master He is in the courtyard next to us. Let's not talk about it. Concubine Li is now disfigured and in a bad mood. She is looking for someone to vent her anger. What if Concubine He goes to the Concubine and says something bad?"

Hearing this, Concubine Li touched her belly and said to Lihua, "That's true. I'm carrying the heir to the palace. Now is not the time to be angry with them. The most important thing is to protect my belly."

After hearing this, Nanny Wang finally smiled. "Master Li, it's good that you have thought clearly. Drink this bowl of pregnancy-preserving medicine first and give birth to a big fat boy for the prince."

Concubine Li looked at the dark medicine with a face full of resistance, but thinking of the child in her belly, she closed her eyes, picked up the medicine bowl, and drank it in one gulp. "Madame Wang, this medicine is too bitter. My pregnancy is stable. Can I stop taking this medicine?"

Nanny Wang took the medicine bowl and advised, "Master, good medicine tastes bitter. Only if you drink this medicine, the little master will be born safely."

When Concubine Li saw Nanny Wang like this, she didn't say anything, but the rejection on her face became more obvious.
