Yanyan was sleeping in a daze in the middle of the night. She heard a noisy sound outside the room. She had no choice but to get up, draw open the bed curtain, pick up the silver-red inner garment beside her and put it on, then walked out.

At this time, Yuzhu heard the voice coming over and looked at the princess in surprise, "Princess, why did you get up? It's nothing, go back and rest!"

Liu Yanyan said angrily, "It's okay. Why is there so much noise outside? I think something big has happened! Explain it clearly. There's no point in hiding it from me."

Yuzhu sighed helplessly, took the silver-red coat beside her, put it on the princess, and then said, "These are a few greedy little maids in the courtyard. They have stomachaches! They are rolling around in pain."

Liu Yanyan sat on the couch and let Ren Yuzhu put on her embroidered shoes. She walked out and said, "Did you call the court doctor? Why did you suddenly have a stomachache? What did you eat today? You are all sick!" On the dressing table, she was holding a white jade hairpin and casually tied up a snake bun.

Yuzhu supported the princess and said after thinking back, "It was the same as usual, but today, the maids and servants shared the roast chicken sent by Concubine Li. The maids felt so painful at night."

Liu Yanyan asked, "Jinyu, Jinzhi, Cuiyu, and Cuizhi are all sick, but the servant is fine! This shouldn't be the case! What kind of poison is it? It only works on women!"

Yuzhu said seriously, "Yes, princess, only the little maid is sick. I don't know what kind of poison it is."

After receiving a positive answer, Liu Yanyan said, "Let's go to the lower room to see what's going on!" After that, she walked towards the lower room in the main courtyard, muttering in her heart, "It seems that I overestimated Concubine Li. It's only been a few days, and she can't help but take action."

When Liu Yanyan walked to the lower room, several maids were lying on the ground with cold sweat on their foreheads. The palace doctor was taking their pulses.

The court doctor saw the princess approaching and stood up and saluted, "Greetings to the princess."

Liu Yanyan said, "No need to be polite, come and see, what happened to those little maids? Why are they in so much pain?"

The court doctor said seriously, "Princess, these are medium to large doses of infertility drugs. You will never get pregnant again."

The people lying on the ground looked despair-filled after hearing this, and they had lost the strength to struggle.

Liu Yanyan looked at them, then turned to Housekeeper Zhou and said, "Find out how they got poisoned. Was it the roasted chicken that was poisoned? Who did they poison? They, the little maids, can't even afford the silver for this infertility drug!"

Butler Zhou bowed respectfully, "Princess, don't worry, I will definitely check it out and give you an explanation."

Liu Yanyan looked at the people in pain and sighed, "Doctor, give them good herbs. It's important that their bodies can recover."

The court doctor had just finished writing the prescription and said, "Princess, you are so kind. I will change the prescription right away."

Several maids on the ground looked at the princess with gratitude in their eyes.

Liu Yanyan looked at the doctor's prescription and felt relieved. She turned around and let Yuzhu help her walk back. As she walked, she thought, "Who wanted to give me the infertility drug? She has such a vicious heart. Could it be Concubine Li? So blatant! Or Concubine Li!"

Liu Yanyan returned to the house, took the hot tea handed to her by Yuzhu, took a sip, looked at Yuzhu who was tidying up the quilt and said, "Why didn't you and Yuzhen eat roast chicken today?"

Yuzhu patted her chest and said with lingering fear, "We two saw how cautious you were, young lady, so we didn't dare to eat. You often gave us food, so we ate one more meal or one less meal, but we didn't care, so we gave them all. Who knew we could escape this disaster?"

Yuzhen also nodded, looking frightened.

Liu Yanyan then spoke, "Be more careful next time. The Regent's Mansion is not like the Duke's Mansion." Seeing the two of them nod, she felt relieved and let Yuzhu and Yuzhen take off her clothes before she lay down on the bed.

I watched Yuzhu blow out the lights in the room and leave. Under the dim light, I couldn't fall asleep for a long time. The sound of raindrops dripping outside made me even more upset. I tossed and turned in my arms, hugging the quilt, and couldn't sleep until the early morning, when I slowly fell asleep.

Yuzhu came into the room and called out softly several times, but Yanyan didn't wake up. She had no choice but to leave the room, thinking of coming back later.

It's bright

Liu Yanyan just woke up, looked at the sky outside, and suddenly became sober.

Yuzhu entered the room and said, "Princess, please take a nap! The prince is very distressed to see that you are too tired, and has asked Butler Zhou to go to the government office to ask for leave for you."

Liu Yanyan then rubbed her dizzy head and said, "Help me up and ask the court doctor to come and see me. I have been feeling dizzy this morning."

Yuzhu supported the princess, "Princess, please lie down. I will go and ask the palace doctor to come over."

Liu Yanyan nodded and said, "Send someone to the Duke's Mansion and ask Dad to select a few useful maids for me. The maids in the courtyard are sick and you guys are too busy to take care of them."

Yuzhu covered the princess with a blanket and said, "Princess, don't worry. The prince has already arranged for four maids to come over, and also asked the prince's wet nurse, Nanny Wang, to come and serve you."

Liu Yanyan's expression changed slightly, and she said calmly, "Well, I really have to thank Your Highness. Please arrange a good room for Nanny Wang and let her take care of the servants and maids outside." I don't know what this prince was thinking. He sent me such a big Buddha. I can't feel cold or anything.

Yuzhu said respectfully, "Princess, I will go in a moment. Now I will go and get the palace doctor for you."

Liu Yanyan looked at Yuzhu and said, "Just let Yuzhen go, and pour me a glass of water."

Yuzhen, who was cleaning nearby, put down her handkerchief and ran out.

After lying down for a while, Liu Yanyan took the teacup handed to her by Yuzhu and drank a bowl of tea. Her dry throat felt better. Just as she was about to put down the teacup, she saw Zhou Yanze walking in.

Zhou Yanze looked anxious, "Yan Yan, what's wrong with you? You look so bad." He turned to look at Yuzhu and scolded, "Did you ask the court doctor? What did the court doctor say?"

Liu Yanyan looked at Yuzhu's awkward look and said, "Yuzhen has already asked the palace doctor. I'm fine. I just felt a little dizzy when I woke up this morning. I might have caught a cold."

Zhou Yanze held Yanyan's hand, turned around and looked at Butler Zhou behind him and said, "Why hasn't the palace doctor come yet?"

Butler Zhou looked outside the house and said, "Your Majesty, I will go and get the palace doctor right away."

At this moment, Yuzhen came running with the court doctor. Before she could catch her breath, she shouted, "The court doctor is here." She turned around and saw the prince, and knelt down with a plop, "Please forgive me, my prince. I deserve to die for not seeing you just now."

Zhou Yanze waved his hands, looked at the court doctor who was being pulled to kneel on the ground and said, "Don't kneel anymore, get up and feel the princess' pulse. The princess has been feeling dizzy all morning."

The court doctor then covered his heart and knelt down to greet the prince, saying, "Greetings to the prince." After saying that, he covered his heart and knelt down to the princess' bed. When he saw the princess's slender hand stretched out, he covered it with a silk handkerchief before taking her pulse.

Zhou Yanze looked at Yanyan's frail silhouette through the bed curtains and asked, "How is the princess?"

The court doctor then took back the silk handkerchief and bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty, the princess did not sleep well last night. She had insomnia and many dreams. It rained last night. The princess has caught a cold. She will be fine after taking medicine for three days."
