Prince Pampers the Escaping Consort

Thinking of this, Nangong Zhen's lips curved up in a brilliant smile.

"With This King's permission, my woman will see who dares to move." At this critical moment, Nangong Lin still stood up for Yan Xiaoxi.

And his current actions were no longer able to comfort Yan Xiaoxi's wounded heart.

Since he didn't believe her anymore, why did he still try to protect her?

Hmph, she, Yan Xiaoxi, doesn't need other people's sympathy!

"Royal brother, the Nanshui Kingdom has its own laws. The Son of Heaven has violated the law and is also guilty of crimes with the commoners. Killing people must be paid with one's life." It was not easy to get this rare opportunity, Nangong Zhen naturally did not want to miss it.

"Xue'er is standing right in front of Xi Er. What's so strange about that? If the person standing on Xi Er's seat is my royal brother, then are you the killer?" Was it too hasty a judgment? " Nangong Lin's words were reasonable.

"Miss Liu didn't point her entire arm towards Princess Lin, but rather her finger. If Miss Liu hadn't wanted to identify the culprit, how could her finger have ended up like that when she fainted?" Nangong Zhen was not stupid and did not hesitate to go back.

"Why don't we wait for Xue'er to wake up before we speak?" When Liu Zhixue had fainted, the imperial physician was already on his way to the main hall.

Nangong Zhen smiled mockingly and continued, "Is your royal brother's protection too obvious? Everyone knows that Miss Liu likes you. It is not certain that I would lie for you."

The ministers nodded in agreement.

Women were blind in front of love. No one in the Southern Water Country did not know Liu Zhixue's feelings for Nangong Lin.

He had rejected all the young masters from famous families who came to propose for him, and even up until now, he had never regretted such a sacrifice. What else could he not do?

Under the tense atmosphere, the imperial physician carried the medicine chest into the hall, worn out from all the work.

"Greetings, your majesty. Long live the Emperor. Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" The imperial physician surveyed his surroundings before bowing to Nangong Xiao.

He, who had already been on duty in the palace for many years, immediately realized the seriousness of the matter the moment he walked into the palace.

Today was the birthday of the Crown Prince. He should have been happy and in high spirits, but what was the tension in front of him?

"What are you blanking out for? Show it to Miss Liu." Nangong Lin scolded angrily, scaring the Imperial Physician out of his wits, causing his entire body to tremble.

"Yes." Immediately, the imperial physician made his move.

She took out a tool and placed it under Liu Zhixue's arm, then used a thread to check her pulse. After confirming repeatedly, the imperial physician came to a conclusion, "Miss Liu is a symptom of being poisoned."

Who here didn't know about this? These words were just superfluous, superfluous words.

"However, this official has yet to determine what kind of poison it is. However, this poison is not difficult to cure. This official can just take the medicine and drink it." As she spoke, the imperial physician wrote down a formula on a piece of paper and passed it to a palace maid.

The palace maid took the prescription and rushed to the Grand Hospital.

Not long after, the palace maid came back with the Black Turtle soup. She gave the medicine to Liu Zhitian, who carefully fed the antidote to his daughter, spoonful by spoonful.

He saw the bottom of the bowl of medicine, but there was no sign of Liu Zhixue waking up.

During this period of time, Yan Xiaoxi had been observing the palace maid who was brewing medicine, and her body was emitting an unusual herbal scent.

Although this wasn't surprising, Yan Xiaoxi still felt that something was amiss.

"Why hasn't Xue'er woken up yet?" Liu Zhitian asked anxiously.

"General Liu, don't be impatient." The imperial physician was very confident in his own medical skills. It wasn't some strange poison in the first place, so it was easy to cure.

While the two of them were talking, Liu Zhixue slowly opened her eyes.

She blinked her eyelashes and asked suspiciously, "Daddy, what's going on with daughter?"

"Xue'er, it's good that you're awake." Liu Zhitian hugged Liu Zhixue excitedly.

"Why are all of you looking at me?" Liu Zhixue simply did not know what had happened as she blankly looked at the crowd.

"Xue Er, someone poisoned you. Do you know who the murderer is?"

Hearing this, Liu Zhixue seemed to be reminded of something. Her expression changed from being completely unaware to one of realization as her gaze locked onto Nangong Lin. Then, she shifted to the right and looked towards Xiao Yanxi beside her.

Imperceptibly, she seemed to have represented everything with her actions.

"Miss Liu, do you really think the emperor will uphold justice for you?" Nangong Zhen continued to interrupt, wanting to give Liu Zhixue confidence.

"This Emperor will handle this matter impartially." Nangong Xiao glanced at Nangong Lin and Yan Xiaoxi.

"Xue'er, just say it." Nangong Lin understood the meaning behind Liu Zhixue's eyes. She was really seeking her own opinion.

Liu Zhixue nodded and pointed at Yan Xiaoxi, saying, "Princess Lin poisoned me."

Now, even if the parties personally identified him, no one would be able to quibble about it.

"Oh, was it this consort who poisoned him?" This consort will have to ask clearly. Miss Liu, did you see how this consort poisoned you? " Yan Xiaoxi broke free from the restraints of her bodyguards and walked in front of everyone.

At this point, Yan Xiaoxi could roughly understand what was going on.

If it was only Nangong Zhen's identification, she would have completely understood. Because of the matter with Minister Lin, he had caused her trouble, and it was only natural that he would think of a way to implicate her in this.

And Liu Zhixue?

Other than that encounter at the Prince's Mansion, the two of them had not met at all.

As for why he wanted to do this, no one knew. It was all for Nangong Lin.

Yan Xiaoxi was originally only interested in delicious food and beauties, but the premise was that under the calm and peaceful conditions, if someone tried to force her, she wouldn't sit still and wait for death.

Once Yan Xiaoxi became serious, her expression would become very serious.

Faced with Yan Xiaoxi's questioning, Liu Zhixue paused for a moment, but then quickly recovered and said, "Princess Lin knows medical skills. Big Brother Lin can verify this point."

These words caused everyone to shift their gazes towards Nangong Lin. Everyone was looking forward to his reaction.

Originally, they had thought that Nangong Lin would somewhat cover up for Yan Xiaoxi. Unexpectedly, his reaction exceeded everyone's expectations and he admitted it without a word, "That's right, this king can prove it.

His words were so casual, but they were like a sharp knife that stabbed straight into Yan Xiaoxi's heart.

Originally, Yan Xiaoxi had thought that Nangong Lin had cancelled his marriage with Liu Zhixue due to the poison in his body. Now, she finally understood that all of this was because of love.

Because he was afraid of hurting Liu Zhixue, he had kept him out of the door, deliberately keeping a distance from her.

Suddenly, a bitter smile appeared on Yan Xiaoxi's face. This was the first time since she was born that she felt such a heart-wrenching sensation. It was as if something had blocked her heart, causing her to be unable to breathe.

"This consort knows how to poison, but this is the only proof that this consort isn't a murderer. If I really wanted to poison Miss Liu, I wouldn't have been foolish enough to give her a chance to accuse me." Yan Xiaoxi continued to deal with him calmly.
