She looked up at him.
"But I don't want you to get involved in these matters anymore, because..." Seeing Zhongli Mingye's face darken, she couldn't help reaching out and caressing it. "I'm so afraid that you'll be implicated..."
"If you're disliked by the emperor because of me, or hurt by the crown prince or others. I..." She didn't finish the rest of the sentence, because Zhongli Mingye hugged her tightly. "It won't happen..."
Ouyang Jinse felt inexplicably nervous. It had taken a great deal of effort to obtain the prescription. And with the support of the crown prince, the spiritual root field had been incorporated into the Imperial Medical Office.
If the spiritual medicine was no longer as effective as before, all their efforts would be in vain.
If the emperor found out that the Golden Water Palace had tried to harm Miao Yunshen, the entire Golden Water Palace would be executed and their property confiscated.
The crown prince looked at the spiritual medicine in front of him, which was as white as jade and exactly the same as before. Overjoyed, he tested the medicine himself in front of the emperor.
The emperor was very touched, and the father - son relationship became even stronger than before.
After Zhongli Mingye heard the news, he remained calm on the surface. But he vaguely felt that things were not that simple.
As for the Prince of Cheng, seeing the father and son so affectionate, he was still indignant. However, since the Princess Duanya was about to give birth, he put aside his thoughts.
At midnight, the Silver - Masked Young Master appeared on time. He shared these news with Song Jinyu. Seeing that he was somewhat useful, Song Jinyu no longer drove him away. After all, since Cheng Song had been taken away by Zhongli Mingye, the only person she could rely on was Niaoniao.
It was also troublesome to contact Zhong Yuanliu. Fortunately, the Silver - Masked Young Master had been quite reliable these times...
"It's really rare that you're giving me a good look."
"Of course. Since you're useful now, I'll treat you better!" These words left the Silver - Masked Young Master speechless. After a long time, he suddenly asked, "What about Zhongli Mingye?"
"Can you compare with him?" Song Jinyu said nonchalantly. Her eyes were clear as she looked out of the window, recalling the snowy night in Liuzhou when Zhongli Mingye had stood there, shivering with cold.
...
The Silver - Masked Young Master was really unwilling. He stepped forward. "You should tell me clearly. Why can't I compare with him?"
"He's my husband. What are you comparing with him for?" Song Jinyu glared at him impatiently. She had just started to think better of the Silver - Masked Young Master because of the news he brought.
The Silver - Masked Young Master stood there, stunned. Husband? His phoenix eyes flashed with a strange light, and he said nothing more.
After a long time, Song Jinyu thought he had left.
When she turned around, she saw him still standing there. "Take this... This is the new anti - poison pill I made." Anyway, the Silver - Masked Young Master had been kind to her.
He took the pill and walked out without saying a word.
How strange, Song Jinyu shook her head. In the candlelight, her beautiful face looked cold. The Silver - Masked Young Master had said that the crown prince's hidden illness was cured?
The hidden illness left after the unsuccessful assassination by the eunuch from the Eastern Depot was cured?
Song Jinyu smiled. She recalled what Concubine He had said and felt extremely disgusted. "If it's cured, it can turn bad again, right?"
Ouyang Jinse, I'll make you dig your own grave and walk into it step by step. You and your Golden Water Palace will accompany Yan Fei, Master and my sect to the grave!
Her misty eyebrows arched slightly, and her almond eyes were as calm as an ancient well, showing no ripples.
It was time to play something more exciting!
She called Niaoniao over and whispered a few instructions. Early the next morning, Niaoniao went to the capital to select medicinal materials for the Princess of Yu.
That night, before the East Palace gates were locked, Zhongli Chengze walked out of the Mingyue Tower quite satisfied. As soon as he got into the carriage, he suddenly smelled a strange odor.
Gradually, he felt dizzy. It wasn't just him; even the carriage seemed to be shaking. The horses neighed continuously, and their hooves clattered in disorder.
The secret guards emerged one by one, but there was no one in sight in the quiet night. Only the fragrance gradually spread around. People nearby were like those who had drunk strong alcohol.
Among the Golden Armored Guards, those with high internal strength resisted this strange odor and desperately pulled the crown prince's carriage back.
In the middle of the night, the wind blew, and the odor gradually dissipated in the darkness. The crown prince was tossed around in the carriage and was extremely frightened.
When everything calmed down, he fainted.
Song Jinyu watched from a high place as the crown prince was dragged out like a dead dog. She sneered and curled her lips. "Such a fool also dares to scheme against Tianmen Mountain?"
Zhong Yuanliu bowed slightly to her and disappeared into the mist. Everything seemed as if nothing had happened. After the fifth watch, the roosters crowed continuously.
A night watchman passed by and felt as if he had entered a fairyland.
The news that the crown prince was ill spread throughout the court. After the emperor and the queen visited him, they told the crown princess to take good care of him. After the imperial doctors examined him, they found that although the crown prince was not injured, his mind seemed to have been shocked.
The emperor was furious and sent people to investigate the entire capital thoroughly, but they found no clues. The fact that the crown prince often went to the Mingyue Tower was exposed to the emperor again, so the Mingyue Tower was sealed by the government.
By the time Xiao Xueyi got the news, it was already too late.
Fortunately, she managed to save the people in the Mingyue Tower in time. They were just waiting for this storm to pass so that they could reopen the Mingyue Tower.
Zhongli Chengze still remembered the scene when his mind had been controlled that day. He was extremely frightened. He had seen with his own eyes a peerless beauty gradually turn into a red - powder skeleton. He had fallen from a fairyland into the Abyss of Hell.
Ouyang Jinse had just been praised by the emperor and was about to leave the capital. Unexpectedly, after the crown prince had drunk with her in the Mingyue Tower, he was frightened and fell ill.
