Chapter 91 - 90: Who Poisoned Him?

Chapter 91: Chapter 90: Who Poisoned Him?

Nan Feng and Nan Xuan’s faces simultaneously changed, and they exclaimed in shock, "Prince."

Nan Feng rushed to Rong Ling’s side, raising his hand to check Rong Ling’s pulse, but after a moment, his face showed confusion.

"There are no toxins found in the Prince’s body."

Feng Qing, upon seeing this, instinctively stepped forward and said, "Shall I?"

However, before she could finish her sentence, Nan Xuan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke coldly, like ice.

"Princess Consort, please mind yourself. The Prince was poisoned here with you, so no one from the Purple Bamboo Pavilion is allowed to move."

After Nan Xuan spoke, he immediately ordered a guard in the room, "Immediately gather some guards and surround the Purple Bamboo Pavilion."

The guard responded and went to arrange the matter.

Feng Qing stared dumbfounded at everything in front of her; so Rong Ling was poisoned, and she had become a suspect.

Feng Qing instinctively looked at the dishes on the table; could Rong Ling have been poisoned by eating these dishes? But she remembered they had taken only two bites before the poison acted.

As Feng Qing was thinking, Nan Feng had already taken out a Detoxification Pill and fed it to Rong Ling.

Rong Ling remained seductive, sweat spilling out of his body, and with the sweat flowing, the fragrance in the room became stronger.

After taking the Detoxification Pill, Rong Ling no longer vomited blood, but his whole body convulsed painfully, and to suppress the pain, he reached out and grabbed tightly onto the rack beside him.

Seeing his suffering, Feng Qing felt very uncomfortable, stood up, and said, "Should I?"

Before she could finish, Nan Feng spoke, turning to face Feng Qing with an unpleasant expression and coldly scolded, "Princess Consort, the source of the poison hasn’t been determined. What if it was you who poisoned him?"

After speaking, Nan Feng didn’t allow Feng Qing to stay and directly ordered Nan Xuan in a deep voice, "Please escort the Princess Consort to the adjacent room."

"Alright," Nan Xuan said and stepped forward to escort Feng Qing away. Feng Qing glanced back, nearly exasperated to death, as her kind intention of wanting to help check on Rong Ling made them suspect her of poisoning him.

But at this moment, she realized it was useless to say anything, as no one knew she could heal, and her inexplicable urge to check on Rong Ling could arouse suspicion.

Feng Qing remained silent, knowing no one would believe her. Without martial arts skills or anything, forcibly approaching would only prompt Nan Feng and Nan Xuan to take action against her.

Feng Qing turned and left. In the courtyard, Si Qi and Si Hua both looked pale. They were originally Rong Ling’s main maids, and now that Rong Ling was poisoned, they were undoubtedly distressed.

"Princess Consort, how is the Prince?"

Feng Qing shook her head slightly and turned to walk towards the East Wing, with Si Qi and Si Hua following her.

Once in the East Wing, Feng Qing suddenly thought of something: Rong Ling was poisoned, and this could work in her favor. Regardless of whether it was the Little Emperor who poisoned him, she could blame it on the Little Emperor.

Feng Qing couldn’t help but feel delighted, thinking that it might indeed have been the Little Emperor who did it.

Because earlier Rong Ling said the Little Emperor liked the Princess Guangling of An Nan Marquis Mansion, and with just three days until Princess Guangling was to enter the Regent King’s Mansion, the Prince was poisoned at this time.

The timing was too coincidental, so it was probably truly the Little Emperor who ordered someone to poison him. But who did he instruct to administer the poison? Was it done within the Purple Bamboo Pavilion or elsewhere?
