The retired emperor held the teacup in his hand, looking at the unruly young man opposite him, grinning from ear to ear.

He coughed a few times and said with a smile, "There is no rush to grant marriage. Moreover, the prince has not yet woken up, so it is not appropriate to discuss marriage."

"I will personally meet the Second Miss of the Shen Family some other day."

"I want to see what kind of ability this woman has to make a villain like you so obsessed with her."

"You have never been close to men and women, it's rare."

Murong Che leaned back in his chair, his eyebrows slightly raised.

"Grandpa Huang, she's a beauty."

The Emperor asked again: "Does your father know about this?"

Murong Che shook his head: "Father doesn't know."

The Emperor took a deep breath and said, "I will talk to him about this matter and ask him to issue an order."

"Go back now, and bring the girl to the palace to see me tomorrow."

"Yes, Grandpa Huang."

Murong Che stood up, put down the teacup in his hand, and then left Yongshou Palace.

Soon, what happened in the court reached Shen Mi's ears.

In Lanyue Courtyard, Shen Mi changed her clothes and rushed to Wangjing Tower with Yunlan.

After the master and servant arrived at Wangjing Tower, Shen Mi and Yun Lan entered through the side door and went to the private room where Yu Zian was.

The door of the private room was pushed open. Yu Zian was sitting in front of the tea table. Seeing Shen Mi coming, he motioned for her to close the door.

Yunlan was keeping watch at a door not far away.

"Senior Brother." Shen Mi was a little anxious.

"Junior sister, you came to see me so urgently, there must be something important."

Shen Mi nodded and slowly sat down opposite Yu Zian.

"At the morning court today, His Majesty has issued an order for the Minister of Rites, Lord Wu, to take Senior Brother to the East Palace for treatment."

"Your Majesty's intention is to reward you if you can wake the prince up."

"If you can't cure it, you will be punished."

"Your Majesty is a careful person. I'm afraid he suspects that Senior Brother is in the south of Yanjing City just to gain fame and reputation."

Yu Zi smiled knowingly, "So, Junior Sister, do you want me to save the prince?"

"If he doesn't want to, then Senior Brother won't let him wake up."

Shen Mi was silent for a moment, "He really deserves to die. I also hope that he will never wake up in this life."

"But my brother is just as important to me, so it won't hurt if you wake him up."

Shen Mi turned her head to look towards the door, then looked back at Yu Zian.

"I guess someone will come to invite Senior Brother to the East Palace later."

"Let me make it short."

Yu Zian nodded, "Junior sister, please speak."

Shen Mi said calmly: "The poison of Jiupinhong, in addition to making people sleepy, will make people unable to have children once it enters the blood, which is very similar to the poison of Tamagpie Branch."

"That's why I chose the red cinnabar."

"When Senior Brother is treating the Crown Prince, if His Majesty is present, please tell His Majesty that this poison will make people unable to have children."

"If His Majesty is not present, and only the Queen is present, then there is no need to say anything."

"Given the Queen's personality, if someone knew that her precious son would be unable to have children and would have no chance of becoming the Crown Prince, she would definitely have someone kill the person who knew the secret to silence them."

"But if your majesty knows, it's no longer a secret. Even if the queen wants to hide it, it's useless."

"If the prince is unable to have children in the future, the position of crown prince will change hands."

Yu Zian nodded, seeming to think Shen Mi's analysis made sense.

However, sometimes she had to admire Shen Mi for thinking things through in great detail.

Shen continued, "Secondly, the fact that the prince is not of royal blood will probably have to be slowly revealed and deliberately made known to His Majesty."

Yu Zi's eyes changed slightly and he looked at Shen Mi.

"But if the fact that the prince is not of royal blood is revealed soon, I will not be able to sneak into the underground prison of the East Palace."

"Are you sure that the Shen family's belongings are locked up in this East Palace prison?"

Shen Mi nodded affirmatively, "Yes."

"I've thought about this, we need to use other methods"

Her eyes were cold, "As long as we know what is imprisoned in the underground prison of the East Palace, we can expose the identity of the prince."

"I will discuss this matter with my senior brother when the time comes."

Yu Zian nodded and stood up from the chair.

He looked at Shen Mi quietly, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Shen Mi could tell something was wrong from his expression.

"Brother, what do you want to say to Mi'er? Just say it."

Yu Zian smiled indifferently and shook his head slowly.

"nothing."

"Brother knows that you carry a blood feud. You are just a little girl, and it is too much for you to bear."

"If revenge is achieved, are you willing to follow Brother to Yishui and live a peaceful and stable life?"

Yu Zian's words made Shen Mi freeze in place.

"Senior brother, I..."

She didn't know how to reply to Yu Zian.

Yu Zian smiled calmly, "If you don't want to, I won't blame you."

"You and I have been together since childhood, and I just hope you will be safe in your life."

Shen Mi nodded.

"Miss." At this moment, Yun Lan's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"The Minister of Rites and some guards seem to be coming up from downstairs."

Shen Mi's expression changed and she looked at Yu Zian.

"Brother, the situation is urgent. Mi'er will go back first."

"If there's anything, I'll let Yunlan pass the message to Senior Brother."

Yu Zian nodded, looked at Shen Mi's leaving back, and murmured, "Mi'er, Senior Brother still has a lot to say to you."

After Shen Mi came out of the private room, she saw Yun Lan waiting anxiously outside the door.

"Go through the side door."

She took Yunlan to the corridor of the side door. Just after going down two steps, she heard footsteps coming up the stairs on the other side.

Then, the voice of Lord Wu, the Minister of Rites, was heard.

"Doctor Yu, are you in the house?"

Yun Lan reached out and pulled Shen Mi's sleeve, whispering, "Miss, let's go."

"If we are discovered and the Queen hears about it, Doctor Yu might be in danger."

Shen Mi nodded, turned around and took Yun Lan with her, leaving Wangjing Tower without looking back.

Wangjing Tower, the door of the private room opened.

Yu Zian saw Lord Wu, dressed in red court robes, standing respectfully in front of the door of the private room.

Yu Zian asked: "Doctor Wu, what do you want to talk to me about? Could it be that your wife's old illness has recurred?"

Doctor Wu shook his head repeatedly. "Doctor Yu, I am here on His Majesty's orders to invite Doctor Yu to the East Palace to treat the Crown Prince."

"If you can wake up the Crown Prince, His Majesty will reward you handsomely."

Yu Zian nodded slightly, "I wonder what illness the Crown Prince has?"

Lord Wu said, "He was poisoned by a deadly poison called Nine-Rank Red."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Zian's hand suddenly tightened.

He knew that the prince was poisoned, but he didn't understand how Shen Mi poisoned the prince through Wen Yue.

He said politely, "Since it is the order of His Majesty, why not let Lord Wu and I go to the East Palace?"

"However, although a poison of the ninth grade can be cured, it will take some time."

"Please come in, Doctor Yu." Lord Wu made a gesture of invitation.

Yu Zi'an's expression was calm, and under the guidance of Lord Wu and others, he went to the East Palace.

However, one of the reasons he entered the Eastern Palace this time was to seek medical treatment.

On the other hand, of course, it was to go to the underground prison of the East Palace and see what was inside.

The East Palace is extremely dangerous, so you have to be careful in everything you do.
