The people outside heard her words and rushed in.

"what happened?"

"My Lady, are these flowers also sent by the Queen?"

"Ah."

Fang Shiwan's gaze fell on the maids behind Concubine De.

Concubine De raised her hand and said, "Step back."

"Yes, ma'am."

"My lady, this flower is highly poisonous."

"How could it be? How could this orchid be poisonous?" Defei whispered, tightly clenching her handkerchief in both hands.

The anger in my heart cannot be concealed.

"My lady, this is not an orchid. If ordinary people don't recognize it, they might mistake it for an orchid. From the appearance, there is basically no difference. The leaves of orchids are ribbon-shaped or oblanceolate to narrowly elliptical. But if you look closely at this flower, its leaves are nearly round or broadly heart-shaped, with an acute tip and fine hairs on the veins below."

Defei covered her nose and mouth, and took a closer look, only to find that it was exactly as Fang Shiwan said.

The fifth princess was already frightened silly.

An Ning on the side kept comforting her.

"Miss Fang, what kind of flower is this? Why have I never seen this before?"

Fang Shiwan pointed at the petals and said:

"This is called Bauhinia. If I remember correctly, there is no such flower in the Qian Dynasty. Bauhinia grows in a relatively humid climate, but it has a strong ability to adapt to the environment."

"The location where you put it happens to have sunlight shining through the paper window, which is enough for it to grow."

"This kind of flower is extremely harmful in a closed environment, which is why I asked you to open the window."

As she spoke, she broke off the middle flower stem, and thick mist flowed out.

Defei covered her mouth in fear.

Then, Fang Shiwan said:

"I am extremely sensitive to smells, so I naturally smelled it. Plus the night orchids outside, it's fine during the day, but night orchids release very strong aromatic gases at night, which have a certain stimulating effect on the human nervous system, so it's not suitable to put too many night orchids in the house."

"Your house is filled with night orchids. These two flowers complement and counteract each other. You smell the redbud flowers during the day and the night orchids at night, which will accelerate your cough and asthma."

Concubine De collapsed and held on to the wooden door tightly.

"How could this happen? How could this happen?"

"I have always thought that my physical discomfort over the years was caused by my miscarriage and worry, but it turns out that is not the case."

"Queen, Queen, Queen..."

She murmured to herself, unable to believe that the queen, who was usually dignified and harmonious, would have such a side.

Her hands shook, and then she looked at her daughter.

"Wanshu, did the Queen send you flowers?"

The fifth princess shook her head, "Mother, no."

"Hahaha, yes, my daughter is a concubine's daughter, and her legitimate daughter does not threaten the throne, so she naturally won't care."

"But if I give birth to another son, it will be a threat to her. She can't harm me openly, so she uses this as an excuse to send flowers all over the palace."

"If I am not in good health, the Emperor will not favor me, and her wish will be fulfilled."

Her eyes were blurred with tears and she bit her trembling lips tightly to prevent herself from crying out loud.

"Don't be sad, mother. It's not too late now that we have checked it out."

"It is important that you take care of yourself."

The fifth princess hugged Concubine De, fearing that she would be upset.

"Yes, Madam Defei, now that you have been discovered, it is a good thing. I will treat you in a moment and then prescribe you some medicine. You will be cured in a month."

Defei couldn't believe it at all. The Fang Shiwan in front of her was the useless daughter of the emperor that she had heard so much about before.

One could even vaguely hear that she was a disaster star who had caused the Queen and the Crown Prince to suffer countless misfortunes.

"Miss Fang, thank you."

"You don't have to thank me, Concubine De. I'm helping you just to annoy the Queen."

Concubine De was more or less aware of the Queen's hostility towards her.

She had guessed it today in the Imperial Garden.

Xu Zhaoyi thought of the flowers that the Queen sent her, which she had dealt with secretly.

Then take the same flowers and place them on top.

I was glad that I escaped.

"Sister Defei, I'm afraid there is something wrong with the people around you. Now that the fifth princess has grown up, you still have to watch her get married, so you must take good care of yourself."

De Fei held Xu Zhaoyi's hand tightly and said gratefully, "Thank you, Sister Zhaoyi, for reminding me."

Done.

She was so angry that she prepared to go out.

"I'm going to the Emperor and tell him that the Queen is harming me."

Seeing her being so careless, Xu Zhaoyi hurriedly pulled her back.

"Sister Defei, please be patient."

"Sister Zhaoyi, how can I bear this? I have been victimized for so long, and now I am suffering from a cough every day. If Miss Fang hadn't noticed it, I would have died sooner or later."

"Sister Defei, can you make the Queen pay for what she did by going there this time?"

Xu Zhaoyi asked calmly.

"I..." She couldn't guarantee it. The Queen was deeply in the Emperor's heart and they were childhood sweethearts.

"As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. We still need to think about this matter carefully. The queen has a vicious mind, and she will be caught one day. Wait, do you understand?" Xu Zhaoyi tried to comfort her kindly.

Concubine De lowered her eyes.

"Wait? Wait until how long? I may die one day. What if there is no chance forever?"

"Yes, there will be. The Queen was punished to kneel by the Queen Mother today. Isn't that a good proof?" Fang Shiwan helped Concubine De to the bed.

"Mrs. Defei, please lie down. I will treat you."

"The body is the capital of revolution. As long as you are alive, there is hope for everything."

"Did you... bring a medicine box?" Defei couldn't help but wonder.

Fang Shiwan blinked, pretended to put his hands into his sleeves, and then used his mind to take out a set of silver needles in space.

"I happen to be wearing it today."

Princess An Ning was surprised and asked, "You even carry this with you? Are you always ready to save people?"

"Guess." She blinked.

"Empress Defei, don't think about anything else for now. Protect yourself and your daughter."

Fang Shiwan's words made Concubine De, who wanted to complain to the emperor, give up.

She followed Fang Shiwan's instructions and lay obediently on the bed.

Fang Shiwan gestured for them to go out and then calm down to diagnose her.

Defei looked at the girl's serious expression and was dazed for a moment, thinking that she came to save her.

"Thank you, Miss Fang."

"Your Highness, Concubine De has already thanked you. I said I saved you to annoy the Queen."

Anyone who has anything to do with Fang Zhirou will not be able to escape!

"No matter if you were trying to annoy the Queen or for some other reason, you truly saved me. I will remember this favor."

Fang Shiwan just smiled and passed it off.

She did defend herself because the Fifth Princess defended her when she was bullied by the Queen.

She is a person who holds grudges, but is also grateful.

"Madam Defei, I will give you acupuncture now, but you must remember to take the medicine afterwards. The toxins in your body need to be eliminated. Here are a few pills for you to take for three consecutive days."

Defei was very surprised to see the medicine that she had prepared at some point.

But, it was fleeting.

"My Lady, I'm leaving first."
