I died tragically in my previous life, and I want to be an empress in my next life

Pei Zhiyan quickly packed up, changed into light clothes, and took advantage of the night to avoid the guards and maids of the palace with Yin Liu, and successfully left Prince Jing's Mansion.

When they arrived at the farm, Lin Xiaoyu was waiting for Pei Zhiyan at the door with a serious expression. When he saw her coming, he immediately hurried to greet her.

"Why did my second cousin ask me to come here?" Pei Zhiyan asked in a low voice.

Lin Xiaoyu sighed, looked at Pei Zhiyan deeply, then turned around and said, "Sister Yan, come with me."

Pei Zhiyan nodded and followed Lin Xiaoyu, but she felt uneasy.

She followed Lin Xiaoyu and walked carefully to a remote courtyard.

As soon as she entered the room, Pei Zhiyan smelled a hint of blood. Her heart tightened and she walked quickly to the bed. She saw a person lying on the bed, with a pale face and blood on his clothes.

Pei Zhiyan's heart sank suddenly. She walked closer to the bed and carefully identified the man's face. When she saw his face clearly, tears fell instantly.

She looked at him in shock, full of heartache and anger, "How did you become like this?"

Pei Zhiyan's heart felt like it was hit by a sledgehammer, and the scene before her made it almost impossible for her to breathe.

The Sixth Prince she once knew, the young man with an imposing manner and noble bearing, was now lying on the bed, his skin was covered with spots, dark in color, and covered with scars. Where was the charm of a young man in fine clothes and riding a horse?

Pei Zhiyan suppressed her grief and anger, turned to Lin Xiaoyu and asked, "Second cousin, how could the Sixth Prince become like this? Who murdered him?"

Lin Xiaoyu lowered his head. “I don’t know either. I rushed over immediately after receiving the news, but I was still a step too late. He was already like this. We tried our best to rescue him and then settled him here.”

"He was poisoned. I am helpless and can only come to you. You are a great doctor. I hope you can save his life."

Pei Zhiyan frowned. Although Xuanyuan Che was currently a popular candidate for the throne, he was a prince after all. Who would dare to harm him so blatantly?

Could it be Xuanyuan Ping? Thinking of Xuanyuan Ping's abnormal behavior in recent days, Pei Zhiyan became more certain of her guess.

But the most important thing right now is to cure Xuanyuan Che. Thinking of this, Pei Zhiyan quickly walked to Xuanyuan Che and began to examine his body carefully.

She reached out and grabbed his wrist, carefully feeling his pulse, sighing and feeling angry inwardly, these bastards were really too harsh!

She noticed that his face was pale and his breath was so weak that it seemed like he would disappear at any time. It was obvious that he was severely poisoned. She frowned. This toxin was very rare and extremely toxic.

She quickly took out a small exquisite porcelain bottle from her waist. This was the "Hundred Poison Pills" that Song Qingfeng had left for her to save her life. This pill was made from a variety of rare medicinal materials and was said to be able to cure all kinds of poisons.

She fed the pill into Xuanyuan Che's mouth without hesitation, hoping that it would temporarily relieve his toxicity.

The pill melted in her mouth, and Xuanyuan Che's breath seemed to stabilize a little. However, she knew that this was only a temporary relief, and the real antidote needed to find the source of the poison to be made.

She knew that her medical skills were still limited, but fortunately Song Qingfeng was secretly treating the emperor in the palace, so she could only invite him as soon as possible.

Pei Zhiyan handed the remaining "Hundred Poison Pills" to Lin Xiaoyu, "Second cousin, feed this medicine to the Sixth Prince every three hours to ensure that the poison in his body does not spread. I can't stay here for long, I will go back to the mansion and try to contact my master and bring him to detoxify the Sixth Prince."

Lin Xiaoyu took the pill, nodded, and said solemnly, "Sister Yan, don't worry, I will take good care of the Sixth Prince. Please contact Senior Song as soon as possible. We are all waiting for him here."

Pei Zhiyan nodded slightly, turned around and left in a hurry. She knew that time was running out, and she had to find Song Qingfeng as soon as possible to save Xuanyuan Che's life.

When they returned to Yime Garden, it was already dawn. Pei Zhiyan did not take time to rest. She simply washed up and hurried out with Xiaobao after dawn.

As soon as she left the house, Pei Zhiyan ran into Xuanyuan Ping. Seeing Pei Zhiyan in such a hurry, he strode over and asked, "Princess, where are you going so early?"

Pei Zhiyan was slightly stunned. It was not a good thing to meet him at this time.

She bowed to Xuanyuan Ping and said, "Yesterday, Concubine Ning sent a message saying that my father's spirits have improved recently, and asked me to bring Xiaobao to the palace to see the emperor, so that my father can feel the joy of family life."

Xuanyuan Ping's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard this, but he soon regained his composure. He knew that the emperor had always liked Xiaobao, and he also knew the importance of Pei Zhiyan entering the palace at this time.

So he nodded and said, "In that case, I will go with you."

Pei Zhiyan was secretly annoyed. He actually wanted to go with her?

"Your Highness is busy with official duties, so I will take Xiaobao into the palace by myself." Pei Zhiyan said softly.

"It's okay. I am also very concerned about my father's condition, and I just want to see how he is doing in person. After all, as his son, I should also show my filial piety."

Pei Zhiyan knew that if she continued to refuse, it would probably arouse Xuanyuan Ping's suspicion, so she lowered her head slightly and said softly, "In that case, I will trouble you, Your Majesty."

The two of them got into the carriage together and drove towards the palace.

Inside the carriage, the atmosphere was somewhat silent, with only the sounds of wheels rolling and horseshoes clattering on the ground echoing. Pei Zhiyan sat aside, feeling uneasy, and the appearance of Xuanyuan Ping made her feel even more uneasy.

Fortunately, Xiaobao is here.

"Mother, look, I've grown a lot taller!" Xiaobao jumped around excitedly in Pei Zhiyan's arms, trying to show his growth.

Pei Zhiyan was amused by Xiaobao's liveliness. She gently pinched Xiaobao's nose and said, "Yes, Xiaobao has really grown up and looks more and more like his father."

Xuanyuan Ping couldn't help but smile when he heard the conversation between the mother and son. He reached out his hand, gently touched Xiaobao's head, and said, "Xiaobao has indeed grown taller and smarter."

Xiao Bao's originally excited expression became a little stiff when facing Xuanyuan Ping. He tightly grasped the corner of Pei Zhiyan's clothes, and his small fingers turned white because of the force. He secretly glanced at Xuanyuan Ping, and then quickly lowered his head, as if he had done something wrong.

Pei Zhiyan noticed Xiaobao's uneasiness and sighed slightly in her heart. She gently held Xiaobao's hand and gently stroked his head. Then she looked up at Xuanyuan Ping and said softly, "Your Highness, Xiaobao is still young, and it is normal for him to be a little shy. Please don't be surprised."

Xuanyuan Ping frowned slightly, thinking to himself that this child was raised to be so petty by Pei Zhiyan, and it would be difficult for him to achieve great things in the future. After he succeeded, he would still have to teach him personally.
