“Fortunately, her body’s foundation is weak and she couldn’t take it anymore. Otherwise, if more time had passed, the poison would have seeped into her body bit by bit. I’m afraid even Zenith Heaven immortals wouldn’t have been able to save her.”

Xiao Qirui nodded and instructed the butler to investigate thoroughly.

The poisoning could have started from food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation. However, according to Lu Liu, Feng Manman usually felt lonely eating alone and asked her to eat with her. Lu Liu was not poisoned, so they could directly rule out the food she had been eating.

The doctor checked everything in Feng Manman’s room.

Most of her things were prepared by Yuan Yuwan. You Bai had an inexplicable bad feeling and quickly ran back to the Splendid Courtyard to report to Yuan

Yuwan.

“Miss, that woman must be trying to frame you.”

Yuan Yuwan looked up from her book and echoed in amusement, “Maybe.”

Seeing that her young lady finally believed him for once, You Bai was delighted, but her face quickly fell. “Then what should we do now?”

“What do you think we should do?” Yuan Yuwan asked.

You Bai was stunned. “What should we do? Of course we can’t let her succeed.’

Yuan Yuwan smiled and lowered her head to continue reading. “Don’t think too much. Go to sleep.”

If she and Xiao Qirui were really as close as outsiders thought, Feng Manman’s move might be useful. After all, in order to monopolize a man, it was normal to attack his concubine.

However, it was all fake.

Xiao Qirui also knew this.

Therefore, not only was Feng Manman’s move a huge mistake, but it would

also make Xiao Qirui suspicious of her.

However, why did she do this? Was it just to estrange her from Xiao Qirui?

Or was it because of her right to manage the household?

However, even if she were to hand over the power to manage the residence, there was still Aunt Qiao in the residence. It was not her turn at all.

Could it be…

Yuan Yuwan looked up abruptly. “Is Father-in-law in the residence?”

In the palace, after sending off the concubines, Eunuch Liu and Eunuch Deng heaved a long sigh of relief.

The two of them looked at each other and had the illusion that they appreciated each other.

“Ahem, you guarded His Majesty for the entire night yesterday. Today, I’ll guard him. Eunuch Deng, go back and rest,” Eunuch Li said.

Eunuch Deng didn’t stand on ceremony with him. He turned around and left Yangxin Hall.

Looking at the person on the bed, Eunuch Li sighed and instructed the young eunuch outside to bring over a basin of water. He began to wipe his body in resignation.

As he rubbed, he felt something. He looked up and met the emperor’s murderous eyes.

Eunuch Li was so frightened that he fell to the ground. When he reacted, he quickly got up and said in surprise, “Your Majesty, you’re awake!”

Apart from waking up once during the day, this was the second time the emperor had woken up.

The first time was when Lord Rui shook him awake. As for him agreeing to Lord Jing’s rule, that was impossible.

He said that because he had received Lord Jing’s order in advance.

God knew that when Shangguan Heng shook the emperor awake, he was almost scared to death.

The emperor glared at him angrily.

Just because he couldn’t say it or move didn’t mean he couldn’t hear it.

The emperor did not expect the two people beside him to betray him. What he did not expect the most was that the commander of the imperial guards had already joined Shangguan Pu.

That day, as soon as the palace door opened, Shangguan Pu entered the palace and said that he had something to report. He did not think too much about it and let someone enter the imperial study.

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Pu directly poisoned him. Outside the imperial study were the imperial guards. No matter how he shouted, no one came in.

Even his Shadow Guards did not appear. It was impossible for the Shadow Guards to betray him. He guessed that something had happened to them long ago.

However, he had no idea that Shangguan Pu had done so much.

When the old prince stepped into the imperial study, he was already poisoned and could not move.

At the same time, the emperor was a little angry at the old prince for being too stupid. As soon as he entered, he simply babbled about his confession and did not discover anything wrong with the emperor.

Eunuch Li’s heart tightened under his gaze. He cried and said, “Your Majesty, I didn’t want to, but if I don’t listen to His Highness, he definitely won’t let me off. When the time comes, he’ll get someone else to take care of Your Majesty.

I’m worried, Your Majesty.”

That unfilial son was not allowed to be called Lord Jing anymore.

The emperor’s eyes turned red. He opened his mouth with difficulty, but he could not say a word.

“Your Majesty, don’t be anxious.” Eunuch Li took a few steps forward on his knees to calm him down and whispered, “You can’t be angry now. I’ll think of a way to tell Lord Song about your situation. Lord Song will definitely think of a wav to save you.”

Unfortunately, Song Jingchen probably wanted him dead..
