Phi-Fic Chapter 935 Antidote
Chapter 935 Antidote
Princess Zhaoyang never dreamed that not only was the antidote in her hand taken away, but the small bottle in her arms was also searched and stolen.
That was her only antidote.
If they are all taken away, what will happen to my two children?
The man didn't care what Princess Zhaoyang thought; he took the items and quickly left.
Princess Zhaoyang, on the other hand, was put to sleep by acupressure and lay unconscious by the bedside.
The next day, when Prince Consort Luo arrived, the princess had just been woken up by her nanny.
"What's wrong, Princess? Why do you look so pale? Could you have fallen ill from exhaustion?"
"I'm fine. Let's hurry up and think of a way to save them, brother and sister."
"Princess, even the Crown Prince's poison can't be cured now, what about our child's? Alas!"
Princess Zhaoyang was filled with anger and regret at the thought that someone had stolen the antidote from her the night before. Was she really going to watch her child perish?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and she reached up to gently touch her forehead. "Why am I suddenly feeling a little dizzy?"
"Princess, you must not have rested well last night. Let me help you down to rest for a while. The two young masters are not awake yet. It would be bad if you fell ill from exhaustion."
These words were exactly what Zhao Yang wanted to hear, but she deliberately feigned difficulty, "Is it my child?"
"Princess, rest assured, I have already sent someone to ask for leave. I will not be going to the yamen today. You can go and rest without worry."
Princess Zhaoyang's facial injuries had not yet healed, and after guarding her for another night, she was naturally exhausted, in the eyes of Consort Luo.
As soon as Princess Zhaoyang returned to her bedroom, she immediately entered the secret passage.
Do you have any antidote?
"What? Where's your antidote?"
"It was robbed last night," Princess Zhaoyang said fiercely, recounting the whole story.
The man's expression hardened slightly. "So, the Emperor and Empress suspected you all along, which is why they deliberately poisoned the two siblings as well. Now, the Crown Prince will surely be fine."
"Enough talk, just give me the antidote."
"Princess, have you considered your escape route? If the Crown Prince wakes up today and you safely weather this crisis, do you think the Emperor and Empress will let you off?"
Princess Zhaoyang was taken aback. The people who came last night were most likely the Emperor's men. If that was the case, she feared that regardless of whether the Crown Prince was safe or not, she would not survive.
"No! I am the Emperor's own sister and the Empress Dowager's biological daughter. He wouldn't do anything to me."
The man's eyes flashed with disdain. "If that's really the case, then what about the injury on the princess's face?"
Princess Zhaoyang subconsciously reached out and touched her face, slightly embarrassed, and said, "Mu Xinnuan, I will never let you go."
"Instead of saying all this now, we should strike first. Tonight is the best time for the princess to start her uprising."
"How could that be? We are not prepared for many things. If we start a rebellion now, we will surely fail."
"That's not necessarily true. As long as we take things by surprise and make the Emperor and Empress hesitate to act, our chances of winning will be much greater."
"what do you mean?"
"The Mu family!"
The man coldly uttered two words, then reached into his robes and pulled out a small bottle. "Princess, go save your children first. And as for the Prince Consort, I'm afraid we'll have to trouble him a little for now."
"Alright, once my son wakes up, everything will be as you wish."
Princess Zhaoyang never expected that when she came out of the secret passage, her child had already been taken away.
"What happened? Where's the child?"
"Your Highness, someone from the palace just came and said that His Highness the Crown Prince has woken up. They also learned that our two young masters have been poisoned, so they have ordered someone to bring them to the palace for detoxification."
Zhao Yang felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and it took him a great deal of effort to regain his balance.
"Nonsense! If it's an antidote, why not send it here instead of bringing my son into the palace? They're clearly trying to make things difficult for us."
"Princess, please calm down. The Prince Consort has also come to the palace with you."
Princess Zhaoyang's body went limp. The pain on her face, combined with the fear from the previous night, caused her to completely lose her composure. Her vision went black, and she knew nothing more.
When Princess Zhaoyang awoke, she was informed that news had spread from the palace that her two young masters had awakened, but they were temporarily unable to move and would need to rest in the palace for a few days. Furthermore, Consort Luo was also ordered to remain in the palace to care for his two children.
This news was like a bolt from the blue for Princess Zhaoyang!
She, the princess, was never brought into the palace, but her husband did go into the palace to take care of their children.
Isn't this a blatant slap in the face?
What she didn't know was that by this time, the news that Princess Zhaoyang had angered the emperor had already spread throughout the capital.
What Princess Zhaoyang didn't know was that the man in white had already left through the secret passage, quietly concealing his whereabouts, and secretly went outside the city.
With the Crown Prince cured of his poison, the palace finally regained some of its former liveliness.
Those who died young were shrouded in deathly stillness, but now there was finally a bit more laughter.
When Duanmu Jing learned that the person who poisoned her was indeed Princess Zhaoyang, she was so shocked that she could not speak.
"I really don't understand. Zonghua is so adorable, and he's her own nephew. Why is she so heartless?"
"Who knows? I'm afraid only she herself can answer that."
Duanmu Jing glanced at the two children still sleeping on the bed. "Fourth Sister-in-law, are they really not poisoned?"
Mu Xin Nuan smiled and shook her head, "I saw Shuang'er with Zhao Yang yesterday, so I suddenly came up with this plan. Who knew that I would actually be right? Zhao Yang does indeed have the antidote."
"However, Shuang'er is still a child after all. How could I really risk their lives to test them? I just gave them some drugs that can put them to sleep temporarily."
"Fourth Sister-in-law, you are so kind-hearted. However, if Mother were to find out that Zhaoyang was behind all of this, she would be truly heartbroken."
"Therefore, we can only keep it from the Empress Dowager for the time being. Fortunately, Zonghua is out of danger, and in the eyes of outsiders, it was the Emperor and I who saved the lives of Consort Luo's two children. If Zhaoyang does not repent, then I will not be able to save her either."
"Fourth Sister-in-law, although Prince Consort Luo is a bit of a coward, he's not a bad person. Yet Zhaoyang always criticizes him. No wonder he's developed feelings for someone else."
"Shuang'er is about to wake up, let's stop talking." Mu Xin Nuan noticed that Shuang'er's eyelashes trembled slightly, so she stopped talking.
Duanmu Jing also stared intently into Shuang'er's eyes, waiting for her to wake up.
