Gu Qinlan shook her head slightly, walked to Wokan, gently lifted Zheng Fenghui's wrist, and placed three fingers lightly on his pulse.
Her heart suddenly became heavy.
"Princess, the eldest son..."
Wocan naturally noticed that Zheng Fenghui's condition just now was abnormal. Looking at Gu Qinlan's solemn expression at the moment, he couldn't help but feel that the situation was serious.
Gu Qinlan gently retracted her palm, looked around, her eyes revealed a deep thought, and then slowly opened her lips and said:
"The friendship between the eldest master and Miss Conch is deep, and his emotions fluctuate too violently, causing him to be impulsive and overly excited. Send the eldest master back to his courtyard to rest first."
When Wocan heard this, he immediately understood Gu Qinlan's intention.
There was indeed something wrong with Zheng Fenghui's health, but the hidden truth behind this could not be made public.
Wocan nodded slightly, turned his gaze to Xiangzhu, and ordered in a heavy tone: "You must protect the princess."
"I see."
Although Xiang Zhu was usually cheerful and casual, she knew very well that the situation at the moment was quite delicate, so she immediately nodded seriously and agreed.
After Zheng Fenghui was properly settled, Butler Zheng sat down on the ground as if relieved. He patted his chest with lingering fear and muttered:
"It's really crazy, one after another."
Wenqin would rather die than drag him down! Zheng Fenghui held a sharp sword and wanted to kill him!
Isn't this crazy?
However, before Butler Zheng finished speaking, he suddenly felt a chill and subconsciously looked up at Gu Qinlan...
Gu Qinlan sat back in her seat gracefully, her fingers gently fiddling with the jade beads in her palm, staring at Butler Zheng with eyes as sharp as ice blades, and said coldly:
"Butler Zheng, you instigated Wenqin to murder Miss Conch and the Second Young Master, and even attempted to rescue her. The evidence for these crimes is irrefutable."
"Although you have made great contributions to the old Prince Duan, the Prince Duan's Mansion has never treated you badly."
"Now you should exchange your life for another's. I will give you poisoned wine and announce to the public that you died of illness. This will not only save your face, but also the reputation of Prince Duan's Mansion."
Once these words were spoken, it was undoubtedly a direct sentence of death for Butler Zheng.
Butler Zheng's face turned pale as paper in an instant, and he shouted excitedly:
"You? You can't kill me! You can't!"
"I want to see the old princess! I want to see the old princess!"
"You are unfilial. You have disobeyed the old prince's last will!"
However, no matter how Butler Zheng cried and begged, there was no fluctuation on Gu Qinlan's face. She just raised her hand slightly, and the guards immediately stepped forward and forcibly took Butler Zheng away.
Butler Zheng felt Gu Qinlan's determination, and struggled and begged desperately. Seeing that Gu Qinlan was indifferent, he finally said his trump card in despair:
"I have another secret. If you kill me, you will regret it!"
Gu Qinlan's lips curled up slightly, and she glanced at Butler Zheng indifferently, as if she had regarded the other person as a dead person:
"I'm not interested in your secret. You can be buried with it."
The night grew darker.
After Gu Qinlan had properly dealt with the affairs of Butler Zheng, she slowly walked into Zheng Fenghui's courtyard.
In the dim morning light, Zheng Fenghui was still immersed in the abyss of sleep. Gu Qinlan couldn't help but cast her gaze towards his eye bags.
Eyebags seemed a little uneasy, scratched the back of his neck unnaturally, and said hesitantly:
"To be honest, I just saw that the eldest master was very excited and used too much force. I never thought it would end up like this. But you see, the result doesn't seem to be bad."
Upon hearing this, Gu Qinlan almost curled up the corners of her mouth into a smile, but ultimately did not do so. She simply poked Zheng Fenghui's forehead lightly, then sat down next to him and carefully examined him once again.
After a while, Gu Qinlan took back her hand. Xiang Zhu couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Miss, what on earth happened to this young master? He looked like a wild beast that had lost its mind."
Even the death of Little Conch and the stimulation from Butler Zheng did not seem to make a person so unbearable.
Gu Qinlan's face was solemn, and she answered in a heavy tone: "Feng Hui is suffering from epilepsy."
"This……"
Gu Qinlan paused for a moment, glanced at Zheng Fenghui, sighed, and continued to explain: "The Twenty Difficulties in the Difficult Classic says: 'Those who are too yang are crazy, and those who are too yin are insane.' Crazy people often show symptoms such as restlessness, arrogance, and irritability. Fenghui suffers from crazy."
She paused for a moment, frowning, looking quite worried. During her time with Zheng Fenghui, she felt that his temperament was sometimes difficult to control. At first, she thought it was just because he was young and full of energy, and had a lot on his mind, but now she realized that he was unfortunately suffering from this disease.
Xiang Zhu asked curiously, "Miss, can this disease be cured?" She had full confidence in her young lady and believed that she would be able to bring the patient back to health.
Gu Qinlan just shook her head slightly, her brows furrowed. "It's hard to cure, but the most difficult thing is that Feng Hui's illness was not present since childhood, but was acquired later - caused by poisoning."
"Poisoned? How could the eldest master be poisoned when he was fine?" Xiang Zhu asked in surprise.
Gu Qinlan shook her head again, her heart also filled with confusion. She could cure Zheng Fenghui's mania, but if the person behind the scenes continued to poison him, she was afraid that even if he was temporarily cured, the disease would relapse again.
Wocan stood sideways holding a sword, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Was it Butler Zheng who did it?"
After all, Butler Zheng was so bold that he dared to take Wenqin away under everyone's noses. No one dared to assert whether he was innocent.
However, Gu Qinlan shook her head slightly, and said firmly: "Butler Zheng is not the mastermind behind this. His surprise when facing Feng Hui's madness just now was obviously not pretended. If he really poisoned it, he would definitely be on guard."
Even with superb acting skills, it is difficult to achieve perfection.
"Could that person be Xiao Wenyin?" Xiang Zhu asked tentatively.
After all, Xiao Wenyin had a bad record, but there is currently a lack of conclusive evidence.
Gu Qinlan shook her head slightly, indicating that she was not aware of it.
Theoretically, Zheng Fenghui had already been poisoned before she married into Prince Duan's Mansion.
However, before that, Zheng Fenghui posed no threat to Xiao Wenyin, so it seemed unnecessary to poison her.
of course……
There is no conclusive evidence at present, so she cannot assert that Xiao Wenyin is completely innocent.
Gu Qinlan did not hesitate for a moment and quickly took out the silver needle to give Zheng Fenghui acupuncture, temporarily suppressing the manic symptoms.
"Tomorrow I plan to visit my senior brother. He has extraordinary attainments in medicine and may be able to find some clues. In addition..."
"Immediately send someone to search Feng Hui's residence thoroughly, carefully check inside and outside, and remove all suspicious items."
In addition to the possibility of deliberate poisoning, Gu Qinlan was also worried whether some poisonous items were placed in Zheng Fenghui's residence, causing him to be poisoned through long-term contact.
However, after experiencing Zheng Fenghui's incident, Gu Qinlan suddenly felt that Prince Duan's Mansion also hid countless secrets...
