After the group left, the old lady couldn't sleep anymore, she sat cross-legged on the soft couch in her robe and recited the scriptures.

Lin Shi and Yu Miaoqi also left to wait for the news. The candle flames of a few beans were blown out by the wind, and the figures of several people were projected on the wall. The room was full of ghosts and ghosts, and the atmosphere was very gloomy and ominous.

The old lady opened her eyes and looked at the sky, and many wrinkles appeared on her face.

Lin Shi was also very flustered, and Ai Ai said, "Mother, what do you think His Royal Highness is looking for them in the middle of the night? It's enough to call away Yan'er, why even Xiang'er is called away together? Could something big happen? Can't the princess be done?"

The old lady gave her a stern look and said sternly, "Shut up for me and wait for the children to come back."

Yu Miaoqi's brows moved slightly, guessing that it was likely that something had happened to the crown princess, and the accident was also implicated in Yu Xiang, otherwise she would not have called people away in the middle of the night. Is it poisoning again?

Thinking of this, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled slowly.

Yu Pinyan and Yu Xiang were led directly by the guards to the outside of the concubine's wing. There were many people standing at the door. Several concubines of the prince's house, the three sisters of the Min family, the nine princesses, and the prince, all of them had real or fake expressions on their faces. Anxiety.

"Yi Feng, you're here." The prince hurried forward and patted Yu Xiangfa again? , said warmly, "Xiang'er, the princess kept saying she wanted to see you when she was ill, otherwise the lonely person in the middle of the night would not have someone call you over. When the doctor comes out, you can go in and accompany the princess."

Yu Xiang nodded and said yes. Yu Pinyan put his sister in the wheelchair and handed it over to the ninth princess who hurried over. He spoke with the prince Xingzhi, "Your Highness, what happened?"

"The princess was poisoned..."

The two avoided the female relatives and found a secluded corner to talk, but only half a sentence was enough to make Yu Xiang's heart startled: Is the Crown Princess poisoned? What poison is in? Where is the next? Why did you bring me here in the middle of the night? Is it really what the Crown Princess ordered instead of the Crown Prince being suspicious?

Thinking of the pot of exorcism herbs that he gave to the Crown Princess today, Yu Xiang's forehead broke out with cold sweat.

The Ninth Princess was ignorant of this matter, and Concubine Xu and the others did not speak, but Min Lan suddenly rushed forward and slapped her fiercely, "You poisonous woman, my sister treats you so kindly, yet you are so kind to you. She secretly murdered! If something happens to my sister, I want you to be buried with me!"

How could Yu Xiang sit and be beaten in vain, he quickly blocked it, and then pulled back with a whip.

Min Lan's beating was not enough, but a bright red mark was drawn from the neck, which looked like her throat was cut from a distance. Her eyes were about to split, and she stuck out her sharp fingernails to scratch Yu Xiangming's face. Her hatred for Yu Xiang not only stemmed from the other party's sharp words and arrogant behavior, but also stemmed from this unparalleled face. It is said that beautiful women are inferior to each other, and when it comes to jealousy, Min Lan is the best among them.

Min Song and Min Zhi couldn't hold her back. The Ninth Princess wanted to block her friend, but was swept away by one hand. Yu Xiang whipped her several times in succession. This time, she was not polite, and all the whips greeted Min Lan's face.

Min Lan didn't even have the mind to pinch people, and hurriedly hugged her head to dodge.

The scene was a little out of control for a while. Concubine Xu was about to step forward to stop it, but Yu Xiang stopped first and sneered, "The imperial doctor is still inside to diagnose the pulse, why are you making noise? Do you intend to interfere with the imperial doctor? If you have something to say, it's good Say, don't move your hands and feet."

In terms of starting hands and feet, who has moved her? Even if her leg is broken, Yu Xiang is an existence that cannot be provoked. Min Lan calmed down, rubbing her scarred arm, and whispering accusingly, "Yu Xiang, don't be pretentious, if the potted plants you sent were not highly poisonous, how could my sister be bleeding nonstop?"

"Where is the blood?" Yu Xiang asked calmly. With her brother guarding her, she didn't hesitate at all.

"The nosebleed has been bleeding for several hours, and I still have a headache, rolling around in pain, but still holding your potted plant and refusing to let go." The nine princesses were about to cry. It was the first time she had seen such a tragic scene.

Yu Xiang was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I have been raising that potted plant for more than three years. Although it has a strange smell, it can only repel mosquitoes. If it was poisonous, our family of hundreds of people would have died. , why should I assassinate the Crown Princess? What good will it do to me?"

Min Lan immediately sneered, "No benefit? Your benefit is great. You have long coveted your elder sister's position as the concubine. Can you replace your elder sister?"

Yu Xiang's eyes showed contempt, "I am a waste, not to mention being the concubine for His Royal Highness, even if he is married to an ordinary family, people will not want it. The ladies in the capital stand in a row for anyone to choose, and neither the emperor nor His Royal Highness will ever want it. I still have the self-knowledge that I will choose me. Don't use your mind to speculate on me, I'm not as big as you are."

This statement is so reasonable that it is impossible to refute it, and what is even more embarrassing is the last sentence, which hits the nail on the head.

Inside the house, the Crown Princess's moaning was suddenly interrupted, and I don't know if it touched her heartstrings. Everyone glanced at Min Lan, with deep meaning in their eyes. Min Lan's face was flushed red, and she pointed at Yu Xiang with trembling fingers, her lips trembling and she couldn't make a sound, and Prince Jianzhi and Yu Pinyan had stood three meters away for some unknown time, and they were staring at him with a stern expression.

"Your sister is seriously ill in the house, what's the point of you making a noise outside? Don't quit!"

The prince has always been gentle and elegant, but his face suddenly sank and his face was truly terrifying. Min Lan's eyes filled with tears, she raised her head and stared at the handsome face of the prince, and called out pitifully, "His Royal Highness, why are you treating me like this..." She looked like an infatuated woman meets a heartless man.

Yu Xiang turned her face away horribly. Several concubines and concubines showed contempt, and Min Song and Min Zhi were so embarrassed that they could not wait to hide their heads in their arms.

In the room, the Crown Princess suddenly screamed, her high voice was full of deep fear, and the hearts of the terrified people jumped suddenly. Yu Pinyan hurriedly bent down and pressed her sister's face into his arms, gently patted her back to comfort her, "Don't be afraid of Xiang'er, brother is here. Brother won't let anyone hurt you." At the end, he held her earlobe in a low voice. Wen stressed, "Even if it's the emperor, I can't do it."

Yu Xiang's stiff body slowly relaxed, scratching her numb earlobes, raising her little face and smiling sweetly at her brother. Yu Pinyan quickly rubbed her full red lips, then stood up and looked at the suddenly opened door.

I saw that the imperial doctor stepped out of the threshold while wiping his sweaty brows, bowed and replied, "His Royal Highness, the concubine and the concubine are safe."

Before the prince could speak, Concubine Xu and Min Lan shouted in unison, "What? Da'an?" Isn't he dead? Are you sure you're right?

There was a strong sense of disappointment hidden in the words of the two people. As long as everyone present was not deaf, they could tell the difference. The prince's happy face suddenly sank, and there was a loud sound of broken cups in the room.

The imperial doctor glanced at the two of them lightly, nodded and said, "Yes, the crown princess is not poisoned, she is safe now, and there is no life worry in the future. Your Royal Highness, please come in, and the minister will tell you in detail."

The prince immediately followed him in. Yu Xiang stretched her neck to look around, feeling uncomfortable with cat scratching in her heart.

Yu Pinyan grabbed her chin, turned her face around, and whispered, "Don't look around, I want to know what brother will tell you when you go back. The Crown Princess's safety should be related to the potted plant you sent."

There were many candles lit in the house, which illuminated all the corners of the house, and there were many blood-stained cotton balls on the ground. There was a sweet smell mixed with blood in the air, but it didn't make people uncomfortable. The crown princess was half lying on the couch, her clothes had a lot of nosebleeds, her face was even paler than before, but the dead energy in her eyes had completely disappeared.

"Zhener, are you really all right?" After all, it was a young couple, and the crown princess had an irreplaceable position in the prince's mind. Seeing her bright eyes at this time, she was so excited that she almost burst into tears.

The crown princess had already started crying, and big drops of tears fell straight down, and soon wet the front of her clothes.

The prince didn't care that she was covered in blood, and put her in the crook of his arms and looked at her carefully, as if he could never see enough in his life. The imperial doctor lowered his head and listened to the husband and wife, seeing that they finished? Intestine, then walked forward with a small teacup.

The princess immediately retreated from the embrace of the prince, and held the small potted plant sent by Yu Xiang in her arms, blocking the small teacup, as if an evil spirit was imprisoned in it, and when the lid of the cup was opened, it would rush towards her.

The prince was puzzled, and when he fixed his eyes on the cup, he suddenly got goosebumps all over his body. I saw a dark black leech eight inches long and thick with a thumb on the bottom of the porcelain-white cup. Because it could not find blood to suck, it was holding its slender head with a suction cup on the wall of the cup.

The imperial doctor took a few glances and felt disgusted, he slammed the lid of the cup, and said slowly, "Report to Your Highness, this leech crawled out of the nostrils of the crown princess, and it should be inside the lady's body. She survived for more than half a year. After the mother gave birth, her qi and blood were greatly damaged. The leech did not have enough blood in the nasal cavity to suck and burrowed into the mother's brain, which was the culprit that caused the mother to be seriously ill. Now that it has been taken out, the mother only I need some supplements, and I can get back to normal in two or three months.”

The prince was stunned when he heard it, and then he seemed to be struck by lightning, and asked in surprise, "The leech only survives in the sewage and sludge, the princess has never been near that kind of pickled place, how did the leech get into her brain? "

The Imperial Physician was stopped by the question, and he was speechless for a long time.

The prince suddenly sneered, and his full of joy was replaced by a monstrous anger. Either the princess was infected by herself, or someone made a bad move. Such insidious means are simply unheard of. And if such evil things can be implanted in the nose of the princess without knowing it, this person must be someone close to the princess.

If the leech was not flushed out by the nosebleed, how long could the perpetrator hide, and how many people would be murdered by this method? After thinking about it deeply, the prince only felt horrified.

The imperial doctor had never seen such an angry prince before, so he couldn't help feeling panic, and explained at a faster rate, "Reporting to His Royal Highness, the reason why the concubine and concubine saved the danger is all the credit of this little tree. This is a fortunate thing to say, if The leech has entered the brain, except for this small tree, there is no medicine in the world. But at the most critical moment, this magical medicine was delivered directly to the empress, it can be seen that Your Highness and the empress have deep blessings and are blessed by God."

The prince turned his head and looked at the potted plant with surprise.

The crown princess hugged the potted plant even tighter, her face full of expressions of the rest of her life. Xiang'er is indeed the lucky star of Ben Gong. As long as Xiang'er is called to his side, Ben Gong will always save the day. Since the birth of a dragon and a phoenix, and seeing the Daoguang shine with his own eyes, this idea has taken root in the heart of the Crown Princess.
