The three of them first went to the place where Qin Zhenzhen was killed. It rained heavily yesterday and the traces have been washed away. They went to Ning Yuan Nunnery again, and the nun inside confirmed that Qin Zhenzhen did often go to worship Buddha during this period, and would rest in the Zen room in the backyard after each worship, but she was alone every time, without any maid.

They came to the Zen room in the backyard, which had been cleaned, and no clues were found.

The three of them worked hard all day, and when they returned to the city, it was already dark.

"Tomorrow I will go to the palace to meet with the Holy Lord to prove that the murderer is someone else and let the Ministry of Punishment launch an investigation." Qin Shuyi now fully believed that Yan Mu was not the real culprit who killed his sister, but...

"The Holy One has always felt that Yan Mu is a trouble. This is a good opportunity to get rid of this trouble and silence Zhenbei, so the Holy One will most likely turn a blind eye." Leng Yuxie said.

Because of his sister's funeral, Qin Shuyi returned home first.

"Let's go, I'll take you back." Leng Yuxie said to Liu Yunxiang.

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath. She was really worried about Yan Mu and was very afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold on.

"I want to go to kindergarten."

"Kindergarten?"

"Let's see if we can find the Queen."

If the queen is willing to help her, Yan Mu's case will be much easier to handle.

When they arrived at the kindergarten, Aunt Wen and Songzi were worried. It turned out that a child was sick, but they didn't have money to hire a doctor right now. Liu Yunxiang first gave Songzi a piece of silver and asked him to ask the doctor.

"Aunt Qiu hasn't been here these days?" Liu Yunxiang asked Aunt Wen.

Aunt Wen shook her head, "It stands to reason that she will definitely come to see the children every one or two days. This time, it has been several days and there is no news at all. I am really afraid that something will happen to her."

Liu Yunxiang frowned. Aunt Qiu knew the truth about that year. Her daughter was killed by the emperor and Concubine Ming. Will she do anything impulsive?

Most likely!

Liu Yunxiang pulled the King of England aside and whispered: "I think something may have happened to the Queen. Can Your Highness come into the palace?"

When he was in Yuzhou, the King of England got help from the Queen, so he was obliged to say, "Okay."

The King of England left now. Liu Yunxiang saw Aunt Wen holding a little boy about three years old. The little boy had a fever and was having a tantrum because of his discomfort. Aunt Wen hugged and coaxed him distressedly.

The other children gathered around the door, watching eagerly.

There was a young one, about a week old, biting his finger and saying in a milky voice: "Grandma... I'm hungry..."

"You guys wait a little longer. When Brother Songzi comes back, grandma will cook for you." Aunt Wen turned around and said to the children.

Liu Yunxiang rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll cook."

"Oh, Miss Liu, you absolutely can't do it."

"It's okay. Although the food I cook doesn't taste good, it's still edible."

With that said, Liu Yunxiang asked Yue'er to take her to the kitchen.

Yue'er helped her light the fire, while Liu Yunxiang stewed a pot of vegetables with steamed buns on top, and cooked rice porridge in another pot.

Although Yue'er didn't smile much before, it could be seen that she was carefree. At this time, she was burning dullly, as if she was hiding something on her mind.

Liu Yunxiang sat next to her and rubbed her hair, "Yue'er, did someone make you unhappy?"

Yue'er shook her head and Liu Yunxiang hugged her shoulders, "Is it because of the pillar?"

Earlier, Han Zhao's sister was killed when her carriage hit a pillar. Yue'er must have been frightened when she witnessed this accident.

Yue'er leaned on Liu Yunxiang's shoulder, "He... he can't run away..."

Hearing this, Liu Yunxiang felt uncomfortable. She pulled Yue'er out of the kitchen, pointed at a cloud in the sky and said, "Nuo, he ran away in the sky. Look at how many pieces he ran away."

Yue'er's eyes widened in surprise, "Is that cloud a pillar?"

"Maybe, maybe not, but he must be a certain cloud in the sky. If you go, he will go. If you stop, he will stop. He will always be with you in the sky."

Yue'er let out a cry and looked at the cloud, "This one must be a pillar... uh... he runs so fast!"

"Well, it must be."

After Liu Yunxiang had finished cooking and was arranging for the children to eat, Songzi invited the doctor and gave medicine to the child with fever. After the child fell asleep, Aunt Wen came out of the house.

"Miss Liu, thank you so much. If you hadn't come, we really don't know what we would have done!"

Liu Yunxiang waved his hand, "Don't say that, ma'am, it's just a trivial effort."

While the two were talking, Leng Yuxie came back in a hurry, pulled Liu Yunxiang aside, and whispered: "I didn't see the Queen, but I saw several imperial doctors coming out of the Queen's Palace. I found a familiar imperial doctor and asked her. What's the matter with him? He first said that the Queen had caught wind-cold and was in critical condition. I saw his expression flickering and pressed me some more before he told the truth."

Leng Yuxie paused here and said, "The Queen has been poisoned."

"Poisoned?"

"The poison is a kind of poison called Qi Ri Jue. The symptoms are unrelated to the wind and cold, so it is easy to be misdiagnosed."

"Then since the Queen is poisoned, why do you still talk about Fenghan?"

Leng Yuxie's face darkened, "The emperor said it was wind-cold. Even if an imperial doctor diagnosed it as poisoning, he would not dare to contradict the emperor."

Liu Yunxiang's thoughts changed, and his expression changed uncontrollably, "So the Queen's poison is probably from the Emperor... the Emperor."

Leng Yuxie was silent, "The top priority is to find the antidote first and save the queen."

Liu Yunxiang took Leng Yuxie back to the princess's mansion through the back door, and went directly to Chongming's courtyard. He found Hongzhu and asked her if she could prepare the antidote for the 'Seven Days Abuse'.

"Seven days of death?" Hongzhu pondered for a long time, "I know this kind of poison, a very overbearing poison that first makes people unconscious, and then damages the internal organs."

As she said this, she went to flip through a thick booklet, "This booklet was written by my master, and it contains hundreds of detoxification methods."

Soon, Hongzhu turned to the page, "Qi Ri Jue, here is the antidote to the poison!"

Liu Yunxiang's face was filled with joy, "Hongzhu, hurry up and make an antidote pill."

Hongzhu nodded. The medicinal materials in her pharmacy were quite complete. After gathering the various medicinal materials, she began to mix and brew them according to the method in the booklet. Because one of the medicinal materials contained highly toxic substances, she refined it. After taking a detoxification pill, Hongzhu first fed a mouse and ate one pill. As soon as he ate it, the mouse fell over and died.

The corner of Liu Yunxiang's mouth twitched, "Is what you are refining poison?"

Fortunately, she was more rigorous and tried it on mice first. If it were given directly to the queen, they would be in big trouble, and several of them would lose their lives.

Thinking of this, Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but patted his chest.

Hongzhu was also puzzled, "I obviously made it according to the recipe written by the master, and every step was accurate."

Leng Yuxie glanced at the sky and said, "The queen is afraid she won't be able to hold on any longer."
