The Regent's Palace...

Xiao Xuetang felt a chill on her back for some reason, and looked anxiously at Emperor Yonghui, whose face suddenly fell.

Emperor Yonghui didn't really mean to be angry with Xiao Xuetang. After all, although Lin Shaoshu and Xiao Xuetang were childhood sweethearts, it was Lin Shaoshu who wronged Xiao Xuetang first...

He just felt regretful.

They met when they were young, but the curse that was once on them has been passed on to these children. It is really God's will...

Thinking of this, Emperor Yonghui looked at Xiao Xuetang with a gentler look and said, "Stand up and talk. You look so scared... That day in Wenyuan Pavilion, you and your brother canceled the royal marriage, and I didn't punish you. Am I the kind of person who would embarrass a little girl?"

Emperor Yonghui reacted belatedly -

Xiao Xuetang's divorce was so smooth that day, Lin Xun had been supporting her behind the scenes, now it seems that he had planned all this? !

Seeing that Emperor Yonghui really had no intention of blaming him, Xiao Xuetang heaved a sigh of relief. After standing up, she saw Emperor Yonghui suddenly look at Lin Xun with an unpredictable expression...

Xiao Xuetang???

Emperor Yonghui asked Lin Xun, "I heard from the people below that you vomited blood yesterday. Are you really okay?"

Emperor Yonghui knew that with Lin Xun's current kung fu skills, no one in Kyoto could hurt him.

The sudden vomiting of blood could only be related to the strange poison in Lin Xun's body...

So today at the morning court, when Emperor Yonghui heard that Lin Xun was in trouble, he hurried to the palace with his men!

However, compared to Emperor Yonghui's worry, Lin Xun said calmly, "It's just a small matter. We just need to rest for a few days. It's them who made a fuss and alarmed His Majesty."

When Emperor Yonghui heard that Lin Xun wanted to rest for a few days, he laughed angrily and said, "You sent people to seal the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion yesterday, causing such a big fuss. Now you want to throw the mess to me just because you said you were not feeling well?!"

Xiao Xuetang became a little nervous when she heard about the Yong'an Marquis Mansion. Lin Xun said calmly, "I'm sure the Crown Prince and the Third Prince will be willing to share your concerns about the Yong'an Marquis Mansion."

Emperor Yonghui's expression froze for a moment, then he smiled bitterly and said, "You really got it right."

"At the morning court today, the Crown Prince and the Third Prince were arguing over the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion. This really puzzled me. How did the Yong'an Marquis offend them? Or is there something in the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion that made them care so much?"

Emperor Yonghui never put on airs in front of Lin Xun. He said whatever he wanted to say. Lin Xun looked normal, but Xiao Xuetang, who was already guilty and frightened, had to think more...

Xiao Xuetang's eyebrows twitched. Was it that Emperor Yonghui had become suspicious, or... had he seen through something and was trying to warn her and Lin Xun?

As expected, as an emperor, Emperor Yonghui was far from being as benign and harmless as he appeared.

Emperor Yonghui is playing the pig and eating the tiger? !

Just when Xiao Xuetang was frightened, Emperor Yonghui just casually mentioned the Yong'an Marquisate and the morning court. Compared with the Yong'an Marquisate, Emperor Yonghui cared more about Lin Xun's health.

Emperor Yonghui asked Lu Zizhen: "How is the pulse of the Prince Regent?"

Lu Zizhen was originally standing aside quietly, but when he saw several pairs of eyes looking at him, he suddenly felt a chill on his back...

"Um... the prince's pulse is now calm, except for the turmoil of his blood, everything is fine."

As for why his blood was boiling...Emperor Yonghui glared at Lin Xun.

Lin Xun...

Emperor Yonghui retracted his gaze and asked Lu Zizhen: "If you and Xiao Xuetang work together, is there any hope of a cure?"

Xiao Xuetang...

What does this have to do with her???

Although she knew medical skills, she had only read about the Green Lotus Poison in ancient books and had only a vague understanding of it. Emperor Yonghui asked her to treat Lin Xun, wasn't that a joke?

She was about to speak, but she saw Lin Xun looking over and gently shook his head...

Xiao Xuetang was surprised to find that Lin Xun was probably also on guard against Emperor Yonghui?

Lin Xun helped Xiao Xuetang a lot with the affairs of Yong'an Marquis Mansion this time. Xiao Xuetang naturally stood on the same front with Lin Xun and did not say a word.

If Lin Xun knew what Xiao Xuetang was thinking at this moment, he would probably feel both amused and helpless.

Lin Xun was not on guard against Emperor Yonghui. After all, he knew the character of Emperor Yonghui. If he really had some skills in controlling the emperor, he would have died countless times over the years just because Emperor Yonghui knew his fatal weakness...

The reason why Lin Xun stopped Xiao Xuetang from continuing was because Lin Xun himself was not sure how the toxicity would be alleviated.

He never paid much attention to his health - even when he was seriously injured by the blood-curdling poison, he was able to act like nothing happened. But Tianshu and his subordinates were extremely anxious, looking for an antidote for Lin Xun all day long. If it weren't for Xiao Xuetang who knew how to detoxify, Tianshu would have written a letter to ask Lu Zizhen, who was in seclusion, to come back!

So, when Lu Zizhen said that his pulse had improved, Lin Xun remained expressionless, but was surprised in his heart.

He felt that his improvement must be related to Xiao Xuetang...

Could it be that dream?

After all, the content of the dream was too secretive, and Lin Xun didn't want anyone to notice anything about it before finding out the whole story.

Lin Xun and Xiao Xuetang remained calm, but Lu Zizhen was in a dilemma.

Emperor Yonghui asked with a concerned look, which frightened Lu Zizhen so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.

Although Lu Zizhen is an imperial physician, because of his close ties with the royal family, he knows very well that the delicate balance in the court is closely related to Lin Xun's current "half-dead" state.

Because of Lin Xun's physical condition, he was destined to be unable to threaten the imperial power even if he had great power - after all, according to the rules of the Dayin royal family, the emperor could not be disabled or disfigured.

Even Lu Zizhen knew that if Lin Xun was in good health, it would be very likely that the person sitting on the throne would not be Emperor Yonghui after the palace coup five years ago.

Although Emperor Yonghui has tried his best to find a way to treat Lin Xun over the years, Lu Zizhen is not sure how sincere Emperor Yonghui is or whether he is just testing him.

He was used to the intrigues of the royal family. Even the so-called benevolent Emperor Huaimin had his own calculations. Lu Zizhen did not dare to be careless...

Lu Zizhen hesitated for a long time, first glanced at Lin Xun subconsciously, then looked at Emperor Yonghui and replied cautiously: "Maybe, there is this possibility?"

Xiao Xuetang's eyes widened...

Isn't it cheating her to entrust her with something that Lu Zizhen herself is not sure about?

Lu Zizhen coughed lightly and then said, "Although Miss Xiao is well-read, she is still young. After all, this Azure Lotus Karma Fire is a strange thing left over from the previous dynasty. Even if Hua Tuo were alive, he couldn't guarantee that it could completely detoxify her."

When Lu Zizhen finished speaking, Xiao Xuetang saw Emperor Yonghui sigh.

At this moment, Xiao Xuetang also realized that Lu Zizhen was being a little too cautious. In this delicate atmosphere, she seemed to have thought of something...
