Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again

But Xu Xingyin smiled and spoke calmly.

"Her Majesty, have you forgotten that you are also a mother?"

The smile on Xiao Lu's face suddenly faded a little, "What do you mean?"

"Have you forgotten how you forced my mother back then, Queen? Now I will return to you all the evil you did. You can give up your life, then..."

When Xu Xingyin said this, he smiled lightly, took two steps closer and asked in a low voice.

"What about Prince An's?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Lu widened his eyes and pointed at Xu Xingyin's nose and shouted.

"No matter what, Prince An is the legitimate son of the emperor. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs!"

Xu Xingyin glanced at Xiao Lu indifferently, his voice calm but full of threats.

"Prince An did nothing wrong, so he will not be implicated. But Prince An has been married for a long time, and according to the rules, he should go to his fiefdom, regardless of whether it is good or bad. The road is long and the sky is high, and if something happens on the way, no one can predict it. Isn't it? If you don't hand over the antidote, I promise that with the power of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion, you will definitely make Prince An experience everything you did to Queen Mingzhen in the past. If you want to see your son die because of you, you don't have to hand over the antidote."

Little Queen Lu's face turned pale immediately, and he pointed at the tip of Xu Xingyin's nose and yelled angrily.

"Xu Xingyin! You! You are simply a traitor! You are so disregarding of human life and threatening me. Aren't you afraid of being condemned and ridiculed by everyone?"

"afraid?"

Xu Xingyin laughed a few times as if he had heard a joke, and said sternly.

"Jing Zhichen is the person I want to protect for my whole life. For him, even if I have to bear the infamy, what does it matter? I, Xu Xingyin, have never valued a clean reputation. As long as I can protect the one I love, I don't care about those empty reputations. So, if you dare to take this gamble, I will..."

Having said this, Xu Xingyin paused unhurriedly and looked at Xiao Lu with sharp eyes.

"I will accompany you to the end."

The powerful words echoed in the air. When Xiao Lu met Xu Xingyin's firm and cold gaze, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

In her eyes, Xu Xingyin was not someone who was easy to control. Today, Xu Xingyin could say such words in front of Emperor Yan Ning...

Xiao Luhou didn't think Xu Xingyin was joking.

Empress Lu's face turned pale. She glanced at Emperor Yan Ning who had been watching coldly, then gritted her teeth and spoke.

"I can hand over the antidote, but I want His Majesty to promise me that you will not harm Prince An in the slightest and that he will be safe and sound for the rest of his life."

Emperor Yanning nodded expressionlessly, "Prince An is also my son. If you hand over the antidote, I will naturally not vent my anger on him."

Upon hearing this, Empress Lu sneered, not knowing whether she was mocking her own stupidity or being thankful for Emperor Yanning's final fairness.

Then he walked into the inner hall in silence, took out an exquisite small porcelain bottle from an inconspicuous place, and handed it to Xu Xingyin.

"This is the antidote. Princess, please run faster. If you are late, even if you have the antidote, it will be useless."

Xu Xingyin took the porcelain bottle, held it tightly in her hand, nodded to Emperor Yan Ning, and ran out without even bowing, holding up her skirt.

Xu Xingyin sped all the way, his heart beating like a drum.

The wind whistled past her ears, and Xu Xingyin felt that the whole world was spinning rapidly. There was only one thought left in her mind.

Faster, faster!

Finally, we arrived at the East Palace.

When I stepped into the East Palace, I saw that the huge palace was dead silent and even the air was filled with a heavy atmosphere.

Xu Xingyin rushed into the bedroom anxiously and saw Jing Zhichen lying on the bed with a face as pale as paper.

Xu Xingyin rushed to the bedside almost instantly, suppressed his surging emotions, and handed the medicine bottle to Du Huaigu.

"The antidote given by Empress Lu, please ask the doctor to check it."

Du Huaigu took the medicine bottle and said, "Princess, please wait a moment."

After Du Huaigu finished speaking, he quickly opened the medicine bottle. A faint fragrance wafted into his nose, but it brought with it an indescribable sense of strangeness.

Without any hesitation, he poured the antidote into the clean water that had been prepared in advance, stirred it gently, and then tested it with a silver needle.

The silver needle entered the water, but there was no change.

Du Huaigu felt relieved by this, but he still carefully took a drop of antidote and tasted it on the tip of his tongue.

The medicinal soup tastes bitter, but the herbal power contained in it is extremely strong and it is indeed a detoxifying medicine.

Du Huaigu felt relieved and turned to nod to Xu Xingyin.

"Princess, this medicine is indeed an antidote and is non-toxic."

Hearing this, the huge rock in Xu Xingyin's heart finally fell. He took the medicine, carefully put it to Jing Zhichen's lips, and spoke softly.

"Your Highness, it's time to take your medicine."

However, Jing Zhichen was like a lifeless statue, with his eyes closed, his face delicate but his breath weak, as if he could leave this world at any time.

No matter how Xu Xingyin called, he didn't respond.

This realization made Xu Xingyin's heart ache, and in a hurry, he didn't care about whether it was appropriate or not.

She gently lifted Jing Zhichen's head, pried his lips slightly open, held the medicine bowl in one hand, gently pinched her nose with the other, and then slowly poured the medicine into his mouth.

The bitter medicine jumped along Xu Xingyin's taste buds, and then slowly flowed into Jing Zhichen's mouth, over and over again.

After he finished the whole bowl of medicine, Xu Xingyin gently put down the bowl, wiped the medicine stains from the corners of his lips with a handkerchief, then held his hand tightly, hoping for his reaction.

"Your Highness, you promised me that you would wait for me to come back. You... promised."

The slightly trembling voice revealed the endless fear and wishes in Xu Xingyin's heart.

Xu Xingyin worked day and night for such a long time, and then rushed back to Beijing exhausted. The hardships involved were really not something an ordinary woman could do.

Thinking of this, Du Huaigu shook his head with some emotion, and after taking the patient's pulse, he told the truth.

"This medicine arrived a little too late. It will take time for the effect to show up after taking it. We can't tell anything from the pulse right now. We can only leave it to fate. We will leave it to fate first. If the Crown Princess has anything to say, just let her know."

Xu Xingyin bit her lip and nodded, tears already forming on her eyelashes.

Du Huaigu didn't say much, and led the servants out of the bedroom first, leaving the reunited couple for a while.

Everyone left, and the bedroom became so quiet that only the sound of Xu Xingyin's breathing could be heard.

Xu Xingyin stared at Jing Zhichen's pale face, tears rolled around in her eyes for a few times, and finally overflowed from her eyes, slid across her nose, and dripped onto the two people's clasped hands.

Then, a slightly hoarse voice sounded in the hall.
