"Misunderstanding? Now the concubine is lying inside, you tell me this is a misunderstanding?"

Chef Wang was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and did not dare to say a word.

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Jin couldn't help but sneered.

"Is it Rong Jiao's trick again? Did she control your family?"

Aunt Wang stiffened, and for a moment she didn't know how to respond.

Seeing Aunt Wang like this, Xuanyuan Jin couldn't help but sneered.

"Take a look, what is this."

Xuanyuan Jin took the medicine bag from a guard and threw it in front of Chef Wang.

When Chef Wang saw the medicine bag, her eyes suddenly widened.

"This... this, my lord, old slave... old slave..."

Chef Wang wanted to explain herself, but after hesitating for a long time, she still couldn't explain herself in a word.

Seeing Chef Wang like this, Xuanyuan Jin couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.

"Do you think it was Rong Jiao who attacked your family quickly, or did I find someone before her?"

These words made Chef Wang stiffen immediately. There was no movement at all where she was kneeling, like a statue.

Seeing Chef Wang like this, Xuanyuan Jin couldn't help but sneered.

"I have given you a chance. Since you don't need it, don't blame me for being rude."

Chef Wang wanted to say something more, but was dragged down by the guards outside the door.

The attendants on the side saw Chef Wang being dragged away, their eyes full of worry.

"Your Majesty, if there is no witness from Chef Wang, it will be difficult to give an explanation to Master Sun and His Majesty."

When Sun Ningsi's accident happened, Xuanyuan Jin knew if this matter was spread.

Not only Sun Mingda, but also the Queen Mother would accuse him.

After all, Sun Ningsi had only been in school for a few days, and something like this happened in the house, which seemed to outsiders to be his responsibility.

"When will the concubine wake up?"

When the doctor heard Xuanyuan Jin's inquiry, he immediately took out the prescription.

"My lord, with the best medicine, my concubine will be able to wake up early tomorrow morning."

Xuanyuan Jin knew the importance of Sun Ningsi, and if he wanted to get Sun Mingda's support this time, he had to let Sun Ningsi speak.

"Okay, go get the medicine, use the best medicine. Have someone deliver it as soon as possible, so as not to delay the concubine's medication."

The doctor responded and left in a hurry.

He knew before that the Eighth Prince's Mansion was unsafe, but he didn't expect it to be so dangerous.

If he was a step late today, he might be the concubine from the Eighth Prince's Palace...

The doctor shook his head, not daring to think any more, and left in a hurry except for the door of the Eighth Prince's Mansion.

Xuanyuan Jin called out the woman who was guarding the room just now.

"What did the doctor just say?"

"Go back to your lord, the doctor said that if it is any later, the life of the concubine may not be saved."

The newly replaced tea cup in Xuanyuan Jin's hand fell to the ground again, and he stood up and hurried towards the room.

After seeing Sun Ningsi's still pale face, his hands were shaking unconsciously.

He knew before that Rong Jiao was jealous, but she never expected that Rong Jiao would use such insidious means to deal with a person who had just been married for two days.

What's more, Rong Jiao was only his concubine from beginning to end, not his wife. What confidence did she have to be jealous here?

Thinking of the words Wang Zhen left before leaving, Xuanyuan Jin couldn't help but close her eyes.

If he had listened to Wang Zhen's advice and sent Rong Jiao to Zhuangzi early, there wouldn't be so many things happening now.

Nowadays, what Sun Mingda cares about most is his daughter, while the emperor and the queen mother care most about the prince.

If he lets something happen to Sun Ningsi at this time, not only Sun Mingda, but also the emperor and the queen mother will be completely disappointed in him.

When the Queen Mother reminded him before, he failed to understand the Queen Mother's good intentions.

Now that I think about it carefully, it was all because of the Queen Mother's kindness that he was able to reach this point.

If the Queen Mother was really a cruel person, I'm afraid he wouldn't be alive today.

When Rong Jiao framed Wang Zhen before, he also blindly believed in Rong Jiao. But the final result was that his wife was separated...

His wife and children were separated, what an ironic thing to say, now it actually appeared on him.

Xuanyuan Jin covered up the sadness in his eyes, and then ordered the woman beside him: "Take good care of your concubine, don't let her get any harm."

"From today on, the food used by the concubine must be tested for poison."

The people waiting in the room knelt on the floor, but no one dared to refute.

After all, if something like this happened to Sun Ningsi, they were also responsible.

Many people became worried when they thought that the emperor might punish the entire Eighth Prince's Palace tomorrow.

At the same time, I was also praying that Sun Ningsi would be okay, otherwise the Eighth Prince's Mansion would really need to undergo a major overhaul.

Xuanyuan Jin didn't pay much attention to it. After settling the matter, he went to the study to boil the medicine for Sun Ningsi.

Xuanyuan Jin didn't sleep all night. After frying the medicine early the next morning, Xuanyuan Jin went to the palace to apologize.

The emperor looked at Xuanyuan Jin kneeling in front of the Yangxin Hall, with an angry look on his face.

"Baby, are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid? So Sun Ningsi is your concubine, and you can actually have your concubine almost killed on the second day of your wedding?"

The emperor previously felt that Xuanyuan Jin's talent and intelligence were inferior to that of the prince, but later when he saw that Lao Ba was able to win over all the civil servants in the court, he felt that Lao Ba was not without merit.

But now when he heard Xuanyuan Jin come to plead guilty, the emperor only felt his head hurt.

He never thought that Rong Jiao was so bold and Xuanyuan Jin was so careless.

Knowing what kind of person Rong Jiao is, how could he let her run wild in the backyard?

Xuanyuan Jin did not open his mouth to defend himself, but kowtowed in apology.

"Father, my son is guilty, please punish me."

Seeing Xuanyuan Jin like this, the emperor walked around the palace with his hands behind his back.

After a long while, he stopped in front of Xuanyuan Jin. Xuanyuan Jin didn't know what the emperor was thinking, but he still raised his head.

After seeing the emperor's indifferent expression, Xuanyuan Jin's heart skipped a beat.

"How do you want me to punish you?"

"What's more, even if you apologize, you shouldn't come to apologize to me, but to your father-in-law, Mr. Sun."

Xuanyuan Jin did not retort, but his eyebrows slightly lowered.

"Father, when I return, I will make amends to my father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Seeing Xuanyuan Jin like this, the emperor didn't know how to speak for a moment.

He remembered that his eighth son was not like this before.

Xuanyuan Jin used to be an extremely talented person, which is why he was able to win over civil servants in the early stage.

But then Xuanyuan Jin changed, and so did the ministers around him.

He no longer only loves poetry collections, but instead sets his sights on power and this supreme position.
