Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

At first, Chu Jingming only regarded the child as a means to help Yunyan detoxify. Whenever he mentioned the child, Yunyan's eyes were full of tenderness and concern, which made him feel a little lost.

However, after he had taken care of the child himself for a few days, when the delicate fingers accidentally grasped his fingers, an unprecedented feeling surged into his heart - a little life that needed his protection, with his blood flowing in it.

From then on, Chu Jingming began to have a deep affection for the child. He wanted to give the child the best of everything and hoped that she would grow up healthily.

"Jiang Xue is trying her best. You are familiar with her medical skills. We can only wait patiently." Xiao Zhan's words were comforting. He understood the anxiety Chu Jingming felt as a father.

Jiang Xue's forehead was covered with sweat, and her new clothes were soaked with sweat. She concentrated on giving acupuncture to the child, but the child's condition did not improve at all.

This was the first time Jiang Xue had encountered such a situation. Could it be that the child had too much toxins accumulated in his body?

But no, the child was born with the toxin, and nothing like that had happened before. What was the problem?

As she was thinking hard, the image of the wet nurse appeared in her mind.

The child was fine when he was taken out of the west wing, but after drinking the milk, the toxicity began to take effect.

"Princess Changle, how is the child?"

Seeing that the child's condition had not improved for a long time, Yunyan became extremely anxious, as if she was being scratched by countless kittens' claws.

"Yunyan, hurry up and find the wet nurse!"

The person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. Since the problem lies with the wet nurse, the answer must be found from her.

When Yunyan heard this, she immediately stood up and said, "Quick, call the wet nurse!"

Not long after, the nurse was frightened out of her wits and was brought in by several people. She was just an ordinary woman who came to the palace to be a nurse just to make a living for her family. Who would have expected such a disaster to befall her?

At this moment, she knelt on the ground trembling, not daring to raise her head, facing Prince Ming with a livid face.

Chu Jingming was furious because his daughter was poisoned and in critical condition. He slammed the table and asked sternly, "Tell me! What did you do to my daughter?"

The nurse was already terribly frightened, and this fright made her tremble even more. She kowtowed repeatedly, hitting her forehead heavily on the ground, and cried out:

"Your Highness, this is unfair! How dare a little woman do harm to a rich girl? I was just feeding her according to the rules!"

"After my daughter drank your milk, the toxins took effect and she had a high fever. How dare you cry out for justice here?"

Faced with his daughter's life and death, even the usually steady Chu Jingming found it difficult to remain calm.

At this time, Jiang Xue walked out of the inner room, holding a blood-stained white cloth in her hand and gently wiped her hands.

When Chu Jingming saw the blood on the white cloth, his face became even gloomier.

"In order to temporarily control the child's condition, I gave her some poisonous blood. Now her body temperature has dropped. At least she is out of danger for the time being. Yunyan has been guarding beside her."

Chu Jingming felt a little relieved when he heard that his daughter was temporarily safe.

"Prince Ming, can I ask this wet nurse?"

Jiang Xue saw that Chu Jingming was unable to handle the matter calmly due to his worry, and thought it might be better for her, a bystander, to ask.

Chu Jingming nodded in agreement.

Jiang Xue handed the white cloth to the maid beside her, then walked up to the wet nurse and said softly, "Look up at me."

Her voice was much gentler than Chu Jingming's, and the nurse's fear was alleviated a little. She slowly raised her head and looked at Jiang Xue.

"Tell me, before you came to feed the child, did you see anyone?"

Jiang Xue saw that she was just an ordinary peasant woman and thought that she didn't have the courage to hurt the daughter of the royal family, not to mention that doing so would not benefit her in any way. Therefore, Jiang Xue judged that she might have been used by others.

"No, I haven't seen anyone before I came here." The wet nurse shook her head, indicating that she came to feed the child as instructed and did not dare to delay for a moment, so how could she have time to see other people?

"Think about it carefully, did you meet anyone on the road?" Jiang Xue reminded patiently.

The nurse thought carefully about what she said, and suddenly her eyes lit up:

"I remember now! I was stopped by a young lady in the garden, who gave me some honey paste, saying that the little princess loved sweets, and would be willing to drink milk if she smelled the fragrance."

This was the first time she fed the little princess, and she was worried whether the child would accept her milk. After all, children are very sensitive to smells.

She could not bear the blame if the child did not drink milk and went hungry, so she completely believed what the lady said.

"Is the honey paste still there? Let me see it." Jiang Xue immediately ordered to untie the wet nurse and reached out for the honey paste.

The nurse didn't dare to hide it, and immediately took it out from her arms and handed it to Jiang Xue. She didn't know how much to use, so in order to make the little princess adapt quickly, she rubbed a lot on her chest.

Jiang Xue brought the honey paste close to her nose and sniffed it. Her expression suddenly changed. She then stood up and handed the item to Chu Jingming: "There is cinnabar mixed in it."

Chu Jingming exuded a cold murderous aura. The servants in the room were frightened by the prince's anger and did not dare to look up at him.

Although he was strict on weekdays, the prince had never shown such intense anger!

At this moment, he was like an invincible god of war on the battlefield, making people feel extremely scared, as if any mistake in his words would lead to fatal consequences.

"Who is that girl you're talking about?"

Although Chu Jingming tried his best to control his emotions, the cold murderous intent in his tone still made the wet nurse feel as if she was facing a messenger from hell.

She trembled and answered, "I don't know who that girl is. I only know that she was dressed gorgeously and had a phoenix-shaped hairpin on her head."

"Snapped!"

The table was shattered by the internal force, and the fragments flew everywhere! Chu Jingming stared at the front and gritted his teeth and said a name: "Fang Lansu!"

In another room, Fang Lansu was humming a tune happily and gently wiping the phoenix hairpin jewelry.

This piece of jewelry was a precious gift given to her by her mother when she got married. She still clearly remembers her mother combing her hair on the eve of her wedding.

My uncle is the most beautiful woman in the world. This Phoenix hairpin was specially made for her by my mother. No matter who becomes the emperor in the future, the Fang family will do their best to help her ascend to the throne.

Mother once said that Lan Su would be the queen of Xiyong, the one and only queen!

She is the queen, the phoenix. No one can take her position away, and no one can compete with her for the position of prince.

Fang Lansu stroked the Phoenix hairpin in her hand, as if this would allow her to firmly grasp the position of queen and capture Chu Jingming's heart.

It is said that Yunyan's child was poisoned, and she really deserved it.

When Fang Lansu thought of Yunyan's child suffering, she felt happy. Who dared to compete with her for the position of prince?

She would not allow anyone, any bitch or bastard, to trample on her position as the queen!
