The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy

Seeing that His Highness had not rested all night, Lu Xiaoxiao wanted to ask His Highness to go back to his room to rest first, but she never expected that His Highness would still be interested in having breakfast with her in the pavilion in the backyard.

Lu Xiaoxiao: “…”

Lu Xiaoxiao finished her breakfast as quickly as possible.

After Bai Zhi cleaned up the table, Lu Xiaoxiao reached out and tugged at Xie Xi's sleeve, reminding him softly, "Husband, you should go back to your room and rest."

[Your Highness still has the cold poison in his body, and now he has stayed up all night without sleeping. How can your body hold up? ]

[I don't know what your Highness found out at the Governor's Mansion last night. Unfortunately, I can't help you...]

Xie Xi knew that Lu Xiaoxiao cared about him. Even though she had helped him a lot, he couldn't tell her directly.

However, he will always keep it in his heart.

Xie Xi lowered his head and held her soft little hand. His warm eyes were filled with a faint smile, and the corners of his lips were raised: "No, I have to discuss important matters with Master Huaijun later."

"If you have nothing to do, you can go for a walk on the street. After all, Jiangning is quite lively."

[There is no His Highness on the street, so it is meaningless even if it is bustling. ]

Lu Xiaoxiao shook her head, her round almond eyes staring straight at Xie Xi. She pursed her lips and said, "I don't want to go out. I want to stay with my husband. I wonder if I can listen to what my husband wants to discuss with Master Huaijun?"

"If Madam wants to listen, of course I can."

Xie Xi raised his hand to brush away the scattered hair on her temples, and said gently: "I am just afraid that you will find those things too boring."

Lu Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, and said unnaturally: "What's so boring about that?"

[I originally came to Jiangnan with Your Highness for serious matters. It would be good if I could listen more. Who knows, maybe I can really help? ]

"it is good."

Xie Xi chuckled and replied, "Then Madam, please stay with me."

Several secret guards were sent out by Xie Xi to work again. At this time, in the entire backyard, except for the two maids, there were only Xie Xi, Lu Xiaoxiao and Meng Huaijun.

As for the guard Mu Qing, he was sent by Xie Xi to the woodshed to keep an eye on Li Qiuqiu and not let her find a chance to escape.

As soon as the matter was discussed, Meng Huaijun quickly came to the pavilion.

Meng Huaijun, dressed in a blue shirt, sat down opposite the Crown Prince and asked, "Sir, did you gain anything from your actions yesterday?"

When the three of them came back last night, Meng Huaijun had already gone to bed and had no idea what happened when they went to the Governor's Mansion yesterday.

Hearing this, Xie Xi glanced at Lu Xiaoxiao inconspicuously, and then slowly said: "This time the harvest is quite good, and it went smoothly."

At this point, Xie Xi paused, and suddenly sighed, and said in a calm voice: "There is a large secret room in Shi Weian's study, and there is a lot of gold hidden in the secret room."

"Moreover, I also found an account book in the secret room. It records the origins of every piece of gold in great detail. Many officials and businessmen are involved. I thought, let's catch them all in one fell swoop."

"Shi Wei'an is more greedy than we thought."

Meng Huaijun deeply agreed with this and couldn't help but sigh: "How many officials are not greedy?"

After these words were spoken, Lu Xiaoxiao's almond-shaped eyes widened even wider. She was slightly stunned and looked at Meng Huaijun in surprise.

[Young Master Huaijun is so bold to say this in front of Your Highness! Fortunately, Your Highness is gentle and can distinguish right from wrong. If the narrow-minded Fourth Prince heard it, he would probably teach Young Master Huaijun a lesson on the spot! ]

Meng Huaijun: "..."

He almost forgot that the person sitting opposite him was the Crown Prince.

Unable to hold back for a moment, he spoke out what was in his heart.

If he is guilty, he shouldn't have said it in front of Your Highness.

Xie Xi was speechless.

Although he is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he never restricts other people's speech unless the other party speaks out against the plan.

Xie Xi: "It is precisely because of their greed that we are here."

"That makes sense! What my husband said is really good!"

Lu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, she supported her chin with her right hand, and stared at Xie Xi intently.

[Your Highness is worthy of being called Your Highness, your heart is so broad! It is really a blessing for the Kingdom of Li to have Your Highness! ]

Listening to what Lu Fengyi said, Meng Huaijun also agreed.

With His Highness in the country, the future of Li will surely be better and better.

Meng Huaijun: "Sir, what do you want to do next? If you can use me, please let me know."

Sensing Lu Xiaoxiao's overly scorching gaze, Xie Xi's heart softened. He turned his eyes to meet hers, and the corners of his lips curved upwards. "There's no rush for this. The next plan depends on what General Liang and Lord Bai do."

"What's more, now that Shi Wei'an has returned home, he will definitely take precautions."

"Master Shi is back so soon?"

Meng Huaijun was surprised, "Could it be that he no longer cares about the life or death of his mistress?"

Although Li Qiuqiu was brought to Jiangning by them, Shi Weian did not know the news, so Meng Huaijun felt strange.

"Shi Wei'an is a man who values ​​power very much."

Xie Xi explained: "What's more, Lord Bai and General Liang are coming for him. I'm sure his housekeeper will send him a message to inform him of this matter."

"If he doesn't return to Jiangning quickly, the Jiangning governor will send people to Suzhou to inquire about Shi Weian and find out why he has been staying in Suzhou for so long."

"Under such circumstances, Shi Wei'an had no choice but to give up Li Qiuqiu and return to Jiangning. Apart from that, he had no other choice."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but express her doubts: "Will Shi Wei'an's sudden return hinder my husband's plan?"

Xie Xi hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Not really. After all, there is a scene that needs to wait for Shi Weian to appear before we can continue."

"?"

Lu Xiaoxiao didn't know what His Highness' plan was, and now she was a little confused when she heard it.

However, she didn't want to waste her time trying to guess what His Highness was thinking.

Anyway, they are all in Jiangning now. They have done what they should do. With General Liang and Lord Bai helping them, everything is ready except for the east wind.

Xie Xi raised his eyes and glanced at Meng Huaijun, "I have to go to General Liang tomorrow."

Meng Huaijun: "Okay, I'll remember it."

Lu Xiaoxiao hurriedly said: "Husband, what about me? I want to go too!"

Xie Xi pursed her lips and chuckled, raised her hand and rubbed her head, saying lovingly: "Okay, you go too."

……

Jiangnan Governor's Office.

A fire last night almost burned down the entire Fangfei Courtyard, resulting in a huge loss of money. After learning the specific accounts, Shi Weian was so angry that he held his breath in his stomach and could not let it go until he could barely fall asleep in the middle of the night.

I had slept for less than two hours when it was already light outside.

The servant came in to serve, and Steward Shi stood by and waited. Seeing the servant tidying up the master's clothes, he reminded him, "The master should go to the Eighteenth Lane of East Street today."

"After all, those people came here on the emperor's orders. If you don't go and deal with them, I'm afraid it will cause dissatisfaction among those two."

When the two gentlemen came to the Governor's Mansion with the imperial edict that day, Butler Shi was really frightened.

Fortunately, he had been with the master for many years and had seen many big scenes. He was only panicked for a moment. Butler Shi reacted quickly and first informed the other party that the master was not at home. He then quickly settled the two of them in the mansion and arranged for spies to keep an eye on them nearby. Only then did Butler Shi feel relieved.

As it turned out, he did nothing wrong.

"Ah."

Shi Wei'an nodded and looked at Butler Shi with a hint of appreciation: "You did a good job on this matter. I was away, and it was thanks to you that I was able to stabilize those two."

An imperial envoy who came on the emperor's orders and General Liang who came with 500 elite soldiers are indeed worthy of being met by him. It depends on what tricks they are trying to play.

However, if they want to find any evidence of bribery in their hands, that would be wishful thinking!

Steward Shi said with a smile: "It's all thanks to your good teaching."

After cleaning up, Shi Weian left the front yard.

Butler Shi and the servant followed behind Shi Weian.

Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, he saw a servant coming towards him in a hurry.

Shi Weian frowned and was about to ask the housekeeper which courtyard the servant was from, but he saw the servant running over quickly and kneeling in front of Shi Weian. He said anxiously, "Sir, the lady has a high fever. Please come over!"

"Has the court doctor been there?"

Last night, Shi Weian checked the study and found nothing unusual, so he slept directly in the front yard. He forgot for a moment that Jiang Hui was poisoned and could not stand the torture.

The connections that his father-in-law has accumulated over the years have not yet fallen into his hands, and Jiang Hui is still the bargaining chip he uses to suppress his father-in-law. At this time, she cannot die.

If it really doesn't work, feed half of the antidote to Jiang Hui and keep her alive first. Don't let her death cause your efforts to fail!

Shi Wei'an made a decision immediately: "Come with me and take a look."

"Let's go to East Street Eighteenth Lane later."

The last sentence was told by Shi Weian to housekeeper Shi.

Butler Shi nodded.

After Fangfei Garden was burned down, Jiang Hui and her maid moved into another courtyard called Qingzhu Courtyard.

The front yard is not very close to Qingzhu Courtyard.

By the time Shi Weian, Shi the butler, and the servant arrived at Qingzhu Courtyard, two quarters of an hour had passed.

"You don't have to go in. I can go in by myself."

Leaving behind a few words, Shi Weian strode into the yard and walked towards the main house.

The court physician's surname was Jiang, and his name was Jiang Shuan. When he learned that Mrs. Shi had a high fever and was unconscious, he rushed over.

Seeing the master coming in, Doctor Jiang immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Master."

Shi Weian lowered his eyes and glanced at Jiang Hui lying on the couch. Her face was flushed red, but her lips were pale and cracked. Her condition seemed to be not good.

It had only been a few days since they last met, but when he saw her today, Shi Weian was shocked to find that Jiang Hui had lost a lot of weight. Her face, which had been somewhat round, had lost its former roundness.

Shi Wei'an frowned and asked calmly, "How is Madam's condition?"

Doctor Jiang looked at Madam Shi and said, "Sir, can you please have a word with me?"

Shi Wei'an followed the court doctor to the other side and raised his chin: "Go ahead."

Doctor Jiang immediately showed an embarrassment on his face. He took a deep breath and said, "Sir, Madam's condition is not good now."

"Last night, a fire suddenly broke out in Fangfei Garden. Madam was frightened and had a high fever. She has been in a coma for an hour and has not woken up yet."

"I have already asked my maid to give Madam the medicine, but it still doesn't work. Do you know why?"

Hearing this, Shi Weian's face suddenly turned cold, and he said unhappily: "Doctor Jiang, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Why do you have to be so secretive in front of me?"

Doctor Jiang’s face froze.

He didn't dare to say it at first, but the adults insisted that he speak, so he had no choice but to speak out.

Doctor Jiang: "Madam, the poison in your body cannot be delayed any longer. If there is no antidote, I am afraid that Madam will not survive this high fever."

Mrs. Shi's body had been weakened by the poison, and a high fever was enough to take her life.

Shi Wei'an: "If you give her half of the antidote, are you sure her fever will go down?"

The corner of Jiang Mansion Doctor's mouth twitched: "..."

The affairs of the mansion are indeed very complicated!

He previously thought that Mrs. Shi was poisoned by a bad guy, but now it seems that the poison in Mrs. Shi's body might have been put by the Lord. Otherwise, why would the Lord have mentioned half of the antidote?

However, Doctor Jiang has always valued his life, so he would pretend that he had never heard of anything he couldn't handle.

Doctor Jiang hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes."

"it is good."

Shi Wei'an turned around, walked to the door of the room in two steps, and called out to Shi Guanjia who was standing at the gate of the yard: "Guanjia, come in."

Steward Shi hurried in and asked respectfully, "Does your Excellency have any instructions?"

Shi Wei'an waved to Butler Shi and said, "Come closer and listen."

"Yes."

Butler Shi bent over and moved closer.

Shi Weian told him to go to the study in the front yard to get half of the antidote.

In the entire Jiangnan Governor's Mansion, apart from Shi Weian, only Steward Shi knew that the poison in Madam's body was put into the tea by the Lord himself.

However, this time there was another doctor from the Jiang Mansion who guessed it.

Although Butler Shi did not know why the master poisoned the lady, he knew that he, the butler, existed only because of the master, so he naturally had to be loyal to the master.

Steward Shi: "Okay, I'll be right there."

Looking at the gradually departing figure of Butler Shi, Doctor Jiang suddenly felt a chill down his spine, as if he was suddenly being stared at by something.

Doctor Jiang lowered his head and managed to calm himself down: "Sir, I will go and write a prescription and get the medicine first."

Before he finished speaking, Doctor Jiang heard Lord Shi's rather meaningful words: "I believe Doctor Jiang is a smart man and will definitely know what to say and what not to say. If I hear any rumors, Doctor Jiang should be careful."

This blatant threat made Doctor Jiang shudder. He nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, sir. I will keep my mouth shut. I didn't hear anything just now!"

Shi Wei'an sneered, his eyes threatening: "This is best."

"Ah Zhong, take Doctor Jiang to the pharmacy to get some medicine."

"Yes, my lord."

A Zhong is a servant whom Shi Weian trusts, and he usually stays by Shi Weian's side.

Ah Zhong strode forward with his head held high, made a gesture of invitation to Doctor Jiang, and said with a fake smile: "Doctor Jiang, please come this way."

"..."

Doctor Jiang's expression changed slightly, but he didn't dare to say anything.
