Chapter 189: Another Secret Medicine from the Previous Dynasty
He never felt miserable.
So, in the end, Ji Ziche decided to visit the eldest princess.
It was not only because he was calm and had no resentment, but also because Song Yunxi wanted to go.
"Brother, I always feel that the princess' illness is very strange. And I think Liu Ma's judgment is correct. I'm afraid that the princess's mansion is not peaceful."
However, before going to the Princess's Mansion, Song Yunxi and Ji Ziche first went to Yiyuan Hall to ask Deng Yile about the situation.
Seeing Song Yunxi coming, Deng Yilei handed her the written pulse case.
"I knew the young lady would come, so I prepared everything a long time ago."
After reading it, Song Yunxi frowned and said, "So you concluded that the princess is actually fine?"
Deng Yilei did not hide anything from her: "That nanny showed me the pulse records of the eldest princess all along, and I checked her pulse very carefully. There is indeed nothing wrong with her body."
"So what's the problem?" Ji Ziche's voice was low and cold.
Seeing Deng Yilei's invisible alert, Song Yunxi calmly introduced: "This is my second brother."
Deng Yile's alertness disappeared in an instant.
He told Song Yunxi his guess: "In my opinion, the princess is not sick, but poisoned."
Song Yunxi: It is indeed so!
Just as she expected.
"You know what poison the princess was poisoned with, right?"
Although it was a question, her attitude and thoughts were firm.
"indeed so."
Deng Yilei expressed his guess: "Miss, if my judgment is correct, the princess must have been poisoned by the Lingli fruit."
"Spiritual pear fruit? Another secret medicine from the previous dynasty!"
Deng Yilei was shocked: "Miss Zhiling Pear Fruit?"
Song Yunxi nodded. She had seen it in the Secret Medicine Records of the Previous Dynasty. But she was quite surprised that Deng Yilei also knew about it.
"How did you know about the Lingli Fruit?"
Deng Yilei talked about his experience of practicing medicine in Northern Chu: "This Lingli fruit is very popular among the nobles of Northern Chu. It is indispensable for those shady methods in the inner court."
Song Yunxi didn't know why the secret medicine of the previous dynasty Wei family became popular in Northern Chu, but at least she was sure that the eldest princess was poisoned by the Lingli fruit.
Then the next thing will be easier to handle.
The eldest princess's mansion.
Ji Ziche's arrival made Aunt Liu, who had already lost all hope, cry with joy, but it also shocked Ji Xuze unexpectedly.
But he quickly adjusted his mood, his eyes full of joy: "Second brother, you are finally here, mother... mother really missed you!"
If Song Yunxi had not caught a glimpse of the flash of panic in his eyes, she might have really believed him based on his sincere acting.
Although people might think she had a dark mind, Ji Xuze's behavior made her wonder whether the eldest princess' poisoning was related to him.
Ji Ziche made no secret of his disgust for him: "Prince Ji, please clarify your identity. I have nothing to do with you, nor with the Su'an Marquis's Mansion."
Ji Xuze's advances were directly rejected, which was somewhat embarrassing, but he felt relieved when he thought about his bright future.
"His Royal Highness Chen Wang."
After greeting Ye Xuanqi who came with Ji Ziche, he turned his attention to Song Yunxi who had changed her appearance: "Who is this...?"
"A famous doctor from Shengyun Mountain." Ji Ziche said concisely.
After that, she ignored him and said to Madam Liu, "Madam, take us to see the princess!"
His unfamiliar address instantly cooled Liu Ma's heart, which had just warmed up.
But she also knew very well that the reason why their mother-son relationship had come to this point was caused by the eldest princess herself, and the second young master was not to blame.
She also didn't like Ji Xuze, her adopted son, and had tried her best to persuade the eldest prince to pay more attention to his biological son, but every time she was blocked by the sentence "I cannot let my husband down."
She has seen the princess's sadness and her concern for the second young master over the years, but as long as Ji Xuze is the obstacle, there will be no reconciliation between the princess and the second young master.
Originally, she thought that there was a long time to come, but who knew that the princess was so confused that she brought Ji Xuze into the palace. She never thought that he would use the princess to plot against the second young master.
In fact, she was somewhat relieved, thinking that this was a good opportunity for the princess to see Ji Xuze's true character and wake up, but the result shocked her. The princess actually chose to protect Ji Xuze and personally severed the only remaining weak relationship between her and the second young master.
Now it seems that this is indeed the case. It is impossible for the second young master to forgive the princess.
Although Aunt Liu was sad, she was also able to understand. Anyone would probably be heartbroken if they were in her shoes.
Thinking of this, Nanny Liu began to feel resentful towards the eldest princess. She ignored her own son who was outstanding in every aspect, and instead treated a stupid boy like a treasure, just for a man who died early.
To be disrespectful, does a princess really need a man?
Oh, forget it, let it be what it is. Everything is fate. How can she, a servant, be the master's master?
Madam Liu didn't want to bother with Ji Xuze either. She was about to take Ji Ziche and others to see the princess, but she was stopped by Ji Xuze: "Second brother, mother is seriously ill and can't stand any stimulation. If you want to make her angry again, I will not let you make her angry even if I risk my life."
[This guy is so fucking disgusting. He has been pretending for so long that he really thinks he is a filial son! I really want to slap him in the face! ]
Ji Ziche's eyes became colder and colder. If Ji Xuze wanted to fight, he wouldn't mind fulfilling his wish.
Just as he was about to make a move, Ye Xuanqi had already taken the initiative and knocked Ji Xuze to the ground.
Ji Xuze didn't expect Ye Xuanqi to attack him. He widened his eyes in disbelief: "How dare you hit me?"
"Just hit it."
Ye Xuanqi kicked Ji Xuze to the ground again, lifted his brocade robe and stepped hard on his face, making him unable to move: "I am the prince, and you are just an adopted son of my aunt. Let alone hitting you, even if I kill you today, no one will dare to say a word."
[Good job! Damn it, I've been holding back on this anger! ]
Ye Xuanqi was both amused and confused: Haven't you hit others enough? What are you holding back? Are you the kind of person who would hold back on your grievances?
However, in order to make her happy, Ye Xuanqi still kicked Ji Xuze hard, and all his teeth were knocked out, and his mouth was full of blood.
"Ji Xuze, this is the Princess's residence, recognize your own identity!"
Watching their leaving backs, Ji Xuze's bloodshot eyes were filled with overwhelming hatred. He swore that he would make Ji Ziche... make everyone who looked down on him pay the price!
On the way to the Princess's courtyard, Ji Ziche said to Ye Xuanqi calmly, "You don't have to do anything. I can take care of him myself."
Ye Xuanqi's current situation seems to be much better than before, but in fact they all understand that now is the time when they are truly surrounded by danger.
