Although it was just a child, Lian Xi's words broke the cold and stiff atmosphere and made her feel much more relaxed.

When their married daughter came back home, she was already living under someone else's roof. Lian Xi then lived a more cautious and low-key life, trying his best to not cause trouble for anyone and not let anyone notice.

But the child Lian Tou often came to her and talked to her. On the days like the Moon Lantern Festival in the middle of autumn, he would either send her a mooncake or a lantern. Every time he appeared in front of her, he would be so happy.

Because of this, the Prime Minister's Office started to gossip about this widowed lady's intentions in the Prime Minister's Hall. They wanted to use her legitimate son's hand in marriage to scheme against them. After she realized this, she estranged herself from his hand.

After a while, Huang Cen returned. He walked up to Lian Xi and said, "Aunt, the porridge is already cooking."

"Yes." Lian Xi ordered, "These days, Young Master Gu's food is taken care of by the small kitchen of Qingan courtyard. Don't let others take the fake hand. Watch every item that is carried out from the small kitchen so that there won't be any problems."

"Yes." Huang Cen replied.

Lian Yan Qing, his mother, and the first wife rushed to the entrance of the Prime Minister's Residence. They saw a horse carriage with a yellow treasure roof stop in front of the gate, emitting a noble and mysterious aura.

Beside the palanquin, besides the people of the Lian Residence, there were also a few guards. Lian Yanqing was stunned for a moment. From the clothes of these guards, one could tell that they had quite a background, so he became even more cautious.

Greenwood opened the curtain of the carriage: "Miss, we are here."

A woman wearing a white cloak walked out of the carriage …

"Yue Er!" When the first wife saw the person walking out from the palanquin, she immediately ran towards her without a second thought. She tightly gripped her hands as she sized up the person before her with hot tears in her eyes. "It's you! It's really you! I thought …"

"Mother, I'm back. I'm fine." Lian Ruyue saw the haggard expression on the eldest wife's face and knew how anxious she must have been when she disappeared.

"Yue Er …" When her mother saw Lian Ruyue, her heart, which was hanging in midair, finally relaxed. She was overjoyed. "Great! You're back. God bless you."

When Lian Yan Qing saw that familiar face, he secretly let out a sigh and said, "You finally came back safely."

Lian Ru Yue walked to her mother and Lian Yan Qing and said, "Yue Er has made grandmother and father worry."

"It's good that you're back, it's better than anything else." Even her mother, who had always neglected to express her feelings in front of her juniors, left behind two streams of tears after her excitement.

"Prime Minister." At this moment, Imperial Physician Hua, who was carrying a medicine box, walked over and said, "This lowly servant has followed orders to come and treat Young Master Lian."

"Honored prime minister, the young miss has been delivered, and so has Imperial Physician Hua. This lowly official will take his leave and report back to the ninth prince." At this time, a black-robed guard walked in front of Lian Yanqing.

Only when Lian Yan Qing looked over, did he realize that this person was actually the current Emperor before him, the Ninth Prince of the Great Hall's first personal guard, Ye Feng. Doubts appeared in his eyes:

"Ninth Prince …"

"Father, your daughter escaped from danger and was lucky to have the ninth prince's help." Lian Ruyue explained on the side.

"There's actually such a thing?" Lian Ru Yue was saved by the ninth prince and sent back by his bodyguards. Lian Yan Qing didn't dare to believe it. He suddenly sounded again. During the hunt, even Ru Yue's horse was startled because the ninth prince saved her —

Could it be …

"Today, Ninth Prince had just returned to the capital from the southern part of the city and went to pay respects to the Empress and Imperial Concubine in the palace. On his way back to the palace, he heard about the affairs of the Prime Minister's daughter, so he told me that the prime minister is still in the palace, so it would take him a long time to return to the palace to notify the Prime Minister." As if seeing through Lian Yan Qing's thoughts, the night wind said.

Lian Ru Yue was silent at the side. She expressed that the matter of Feng Yunzheng helping her was done out of consideration for Lian Yan Qing. This was her and Feng Yunzheng's agreement — —

Firstly, they temporarily didn't reveal their alliance so that Feng Yunzheng could investigate the assassination of Lian Lian Nu in the palace. Secondly, even with this, it could be considered as having helped Ninth Prince Yan, so it would definitely be useful to Feng Yunzheng in the future.

"So that's how it is!" Lian Yan Qing hurriedly said, "General Ye, please tell Ninth Prince that this humble subject will definitely come to thank you another day."

"This lowly official will take his leave." The wind bowed, then mounted his horse and led the group of guards away.

The sky was already starting to brighten. Even after a whole night of incantation, there was still no sign of waking up. The maids in Wen Hua Yuan were obviously at a loss. They could not help but shed tears as they thought of the usually bright young master lying in bed, unable to decide whether he was dead or in bed.

"Creak!" At this moment, the door to Lian Fang opened and the eldest miss Lian Yue appeared at the door. Everyone hurriedly called out, "Eldest Miss."

"Eldest Miss, what should we do? "Young master hasn't woken up yet. The doctor said that he was poisoned. If he doesn't wake up soon, he'll …" As Fairy Qingdai spoke, her eyes began to shine with tears, and Dai Xiang began to cry as well.

"The trick will wake up." Lian Ruyue, who was sitting in front of Lian Fu's bed, looked at Lian Fu's picturesque face and said with a firm tone.

Following that, Imperial Physician Hua walked in and started checking his pulse. He used silver needles to pick out the dark blood and carefully observed it.

"How is it? Imperial Physician Hua? " Lian Yanqing asked from the side.

Imperial Physician Hua's gaze was heavy as he spoke. "Even Young Master was poisoned by a poison called Heaven's Destruction."

"Miao Jiang?" Lian Ruyue's eyes revealed a hint of deep thought. No wonder Doctor Lu couldn't tell at the moment.

Imperial Physician Hua continued, "When you're poisoned, your body will have blisters in the air after a few hours. If you don't grab onto this poison, your body will break down, and your skin will be covered with spots."

Lian Ruyue's eyes slightly flickered as she picked up her hand forming a seal. She pulled up her sleeves and looked around; indeed, there was a bit of red on his arm, as if it was about to bubble.

"Such a damaging move!" Lian Ruyue's eyes overflowed with coldness. The person who used this poison had secretly kept it a hand. If an accident happened and he didn't kill this technique in one move, then this poison would die in a few days of pain if he didn't get the most timely treatment!

"It's a good thing that young miss managed to buy time for young master Lian. If we were two hours later, the poison would have seeped into his blood and bone marrow. Even if Hua Tuo was still alive, he wouldn't be able to save him.

But the medication is too late. Young Master Gu shouldn't be in any danger. Please be at ease with the Prime Minister and the madame …" Imperial Physician Hua's words made Lian Yanqing, his mother, first wife, and many others secretly heave a sigh of relief.

Lian Yan Qing looked at Lian Ruyue. While he was rejoicing in his heart, his expression changed. For the first time, he sincerely said to his daughter, "Yue-er, it's all thanks to you. Thank you for your hard work."
