"Chao Ting!" Yu Qingwan cried out in alarm, her heart flustered. "Imperial Physician, quickly show it to Qiuting. How could she have fainted again?!"

The Imperial Physician hastily went forward to take a pulse for Mu Yu Ting and hastily gave her a few more acupuncture needles. Seeing that her hurried breathing had finally slowed down, he wiped off the sweat on his forehead and heaved a sigh of relief.

"Imperial Physician, what's going on?" When Mu Taijun saw Mu Yu Ting's pale face finally turn blood-red, her tensed brows finally relaxed.

"Miss fainted because she was so angry." The imperial physician looked at Grand Preceptor Mu. "Grand Preceptor, you must pay attention to the young lady. You mustn't let her get too agitated."

"Although Miss is young, she has a good foundation. However, if we continue like this for a long period of time, it will inevitably cause us to fall ill. " The Imperial Physician shook his head, causing the expression on Mu Taijun's face to worsen.

Madame Jiang's keen observation of the change in expression on Mu Taijun's face softened her originally overbearing tone. Fear was written all over her face.

"Taijun, elder sister, Qian'er really didn't know that she would bring such an effect to Qiantang. If I understood what she had said just now, it would actually have such serious consequences." Qian'er would never do such a thing! "

Mu Yu Ting was normally not good at tormenting others, so it was impossible for her to tell that she was weak or sick. How could she become so weak right now? She couldn't even listen to a single heavy sentence.

Mu Taijun scoffed coldly. Surprisingly, a trace of iciness appeared in her eyes, startling Madame Jiang.

Madame Jiang knelt down and bowed, "Since it was just a misunderstanding, Qian'er will not stay any longer. I think she probably doesn't want to see me after starting such a huge argument with Qiantang. "

Just as Madame Jiang wanted to get up and leave, she heard Mu Qiushan suddenly say: "Wait."

"What's the matter?"

Mu Taijun said calmly, "Wasn't Qian'er here to help Chen Bi find the person who poisoned the medicine? How could she leave empty-handed?"

These light words were like a fist that pounded heavily on Madame Jiang's heart. "Grand Emperor, what do you mean by that?"

"Qian'Er, you have always been a smart person, why can't you think of such a simple thing now? This cold poison is the palace's drug control, so it shouldn't appear in our Mu Manor no matter what.

Madam Jiang noticed the gaze from Mu Taijun and felt goosebumps rising on her skin. "Do you suspect that it was someone from the Residence of Great Master who drugged Jade?"

"Regardless of whether they are people of the Mu Estate or not, those who did this should not be let off lightly. Taking advantage of the imperial physician's presence, why not get it to investigate and see who exactly that shameless fellow is, to actually dare to make a move on our mansion's customers! "

Mu Taijun placed her teacup on the table beside her with a thump. Her tone was extremely serious, as if she wanted to investigate this matter.

"Lord Taishang, I understand that you're being considerate. Qian'er is also deeply grateful for the Lord Taishang's good intentions, but this cannot happen." Jiang Chenbi made up her mind. She absolutely couldn't let the imperial physician help her search, or else she'd be exposed.

"I don't understand you, sister." Even though Yu Qing Wan didn't understand Jiang Chen's feigned illness, she wasn't an idiot. Seeing Madame Jiang's reaction, she had already guessed 809 points. "Could it be that little sister doesn't wish to quickly find out who the culprit is?"

"Bi Er is my child. After receiving such an evil scheme from her, how could I not wish to avenge her?" Madame Jiang didn't expect Yu Qing to intervene at this moment, but her reaction was still quick.

Yu Qingwan revealed a puzzled expression. "If that's the case, then why isn't little sister willing to have the imperial physician help?"

"Qian'Er is actually thinking for the Mu Estate." Madame Jiang straightened her back. "If news of Bi Er's accident were to spread out, it would definitely attract a lot of discussion. Wouldn't it be detrimental to the Mu Estate's reputation?"

"Little sister, this is a matter that concerns Bi Er's life." Even if we have to damage the Mu Clan's reputation, we have to capture the culprit and give an explanation to Chen Bi! " Yu Qingye's words were very straight, and Mu Taijun couldn't help but cast a sidelong glance at her.

Madame Jiang had never expected Yu Qingye, who was always easy to talk to, to be so stubborn. She did her best to appear calm, shaking her head and sighing.

"Big sister, this is still inappropriate. This matter must not be blown up. Otherwise, not only will it damage the Mu Estate's reputation, it will also affect Bi'er's reputation. "

"Then what does little sister want to do?" Yu Qingwan raised her eyebrows. Indeed, she was not one to meddle in other people's business, nor did she like to pursue others and fuss over gains and losses. She would definitely become a vengeful person. However, this matter was related to Mu Qiushan, and it touched upon a bottom line that she should not have touched no matter what.

"It's naturally better to keep this matter to a smaller scale than to involve the imperial physician in such matters. Let us suppress him and search for the doctor ourselves in private."

Madame Jiang calculated in her heart that as long as she didn't bring anyone from the palace into this affair, she would find an opportunity to make a move. If he could find a random scapegoat, wouldn't he be able to fool everything?

Yu Qingwan sneered in her heart and was about to say something when Mu Taijun cut her off. "Since Qian'er is already thinking about the big picture, we'll do as you say."

Mu Taijun waved her hand, gesturing for the imperial physician to take her out. After thanking him nicely, she sent him away.

Lady Jiang secretly rejoiced in her heart. After bowing and thanking Mu Taijun, she hurriedly left with her maidservants.

Yu Qing Wan gazed at her departing back. Although she was a bit unwilling, she felt that she shouldn't have let her off so easily. However, since Mu Taijun had already spoken, it wouldn't be good for her to say anything else.

After Madame Jiang left, the room fell into silence once more. Incense curled out of the furnace and filled every corner.

Even though Yu Qingye felt a little uncomfortable with the presence of Mu Taijun, her attention was quickly attracted by Mu Qiushan who was on the bed. She took the handkerchief from the Blue Luan and helped her wipe the cold sweat off her face.

It was unknown what she was dreaming of as her hands tightly gripped the quilt. Her body was trembling uneasily and her brows were tightly-knit. A soft mumble leaked out from the corner of her mouth, "Father, mother, brother is sorry …" "It's Qiantang that has harmed you. Don't leave Qiantang …"

Yu Qingwan's heart was suddenly gripped tightly. She held Mu Qiushan's hand and softly said: "Qiantang good girl, mother has always been by your side. I definitely won't leave you."

It was unknown if Yu Qing's words had any effect on her, but Mu Qiushan's uneasy aura gradually weakened, and she once again fell into a deep slumber.

When Mu Taijun saw this scene, his heart stirred. It seemed that something that was deeply rooted in his mind had changed.

Perhaps, the Yu clan wasn't as terrible as she remembered.
