The prince longs for me every night after mastering thought-reading

Chapter 127: No coincidences, no stories



The dark night sky was filled with snowflakes.

The hand on her cheek moved very gently, and the owner of the hand had a serious look on his face, which he had never seen on other women's faces.

Because of the height difference, Xiao Jinyan kept his head down, and his eyes naturally fell on the pink lips nearby, which he could not avoid.

The snowflakes as big as goose feathers were scattered, and they easily passed over her nose and fell on her lips.

He stretched out his hand and was about to wipe it off for her. Before his fingers touched her lips, he saw that the tightly closed lips suddenly opened and the snowflakes on the lips were eaten.

Shen Chuwei ate the snowflakes and felt cool. She was so greedy that she wanted to eat strawberry ice cream when the next wave of strawberries was ripe.

Xiao Jinyan's eyes were a little hot, and even the cold wind coming from her seemed to carry a little heat.

"Why do you want to eat snow? What if you have a stomachache?"

Shen Chuwei curved her eyebrows, "Don't worry, Your Highness, it's just a snowflake, I will be fine."

Xiao Jinyan did not comment.

Shen Chuwei stared at the handsome face for a while under the palace lantern, making sure that all the red areas were applied.

"Your Highness, it's done."

Xiao Jinyan stood up straight, and the distance between them instantly became much farther.

The effect of the medicine came very quickly, and the red areas were healed in a short while.

"Let's go."

Shen Chuwei put away the cream and followed Xiao Jinyan with her short legs.

When they arrived at Fengyi Palace, there were palace maids and eunuchs kneeling on the ground.

Three or four imperial doctors surrounded the bed, discussing while examining the patient, and all of them looked nervous.

The emperor paced back and forth in front of the bed, his face very gloomy.

Xiao Jinyan stepped forward a few steps to greet him, "Father, how is the queen mother?"

Shen Chuwei bowed and stood obediently behind Xiao Jinyan.

The emperor stopped and looked up at his son. "It's not clear yet. The imperial physician is treating her."

"For some reason, your mother's face suddenly turned red. She was frightened." The emperor said worriedly, looking at the queen on the bed. His eyes fell on the red cheeks and his brows were furrowed.

The imperial physician's diagnosis has not come out yet, and Xiao Jinyan can't make a definite statement. He can only wait.

The emperor waited for a long time and became a little impatient. He asked coldly: "Imperial physician, how is the queen's condition?"

The imperial physician bowed and reported: "Your Majesty, the queen's face is just caused by the discomfort of the perfume powder. It will disappear in two days. It's not a big deal. But..."

The emperor asked: "Just what?"

Xiao Jinyan looked up at the imperial physician and frowned.

"Your Majesty, judging from the pulse, the queen has been poisoned by a chronic poison." The imperial physician said cautiously.

The queen just breathed a sigh of relief, and when she heard that she was poisoned, she stared at the imperial physician with wide eyes.

Qingying personally supervised her daily food, clothing, housing and transportation, so she had no chance to poison.

There were so many concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards, and naturally there were many who wanted to be the queen.

She frowned and thought carefully about who was more likely to poison in the past six months.

The emperor was furious: "How could the queen be poisoned by a chronic poison?"

"Your Majesty, the queen has been poisoned for half a year. Fortunately, it was discovered in time and the antidote was found in time, so it's fine." The imperial physician said.

The emperor said anxiously: "Then prepare the antidote quickly. If something happens to the queen, I will only ask you."

"Your Majesty, the queen was poisoned by the toxin extracted from the pollen of Datura, and the rhizome of Datura needs to be extracted as a medicine to detoxify."

"Datura flowers grow in cold and gloomy places and are extremely difficult to find. The journey back and forth will also delay the best time to detoxify." After the imperial physician finished speaking, he knelt on the ground with a shivering voice.

When the queen heard this, even though she didn't know poison, she only felt a chill on her back.

She hasn't held her grandson yet, and she hasn't lived enough at such a young age. She can't die.

The emperor glanced coldly at the palace maids and eunuchs kneeling on the ground, and his eyes fell on the head nanny Qingying, "The queen has always been your personal servant. How come you didn't know that the queen was poisoned by a chronic poison?"

"Your Majesty, I have been serving the queen personally, and I didn't find anyone poisoning me. I deserve to die." Qingying prostrated herself on the ground.

Xiao Jinyan took a few steps forward and bowed: "Father, I am willing to take people to find Mandragora and come back as quickly as possible."

Hearing this, the queen looked at the prince in disbelief, and she was stunned for a long time.

The emperor looked at the prince with some relief, revealing an approving look: "Then the matter of finding the mandragora is left to you, and you must come back as soon as possible."

Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyebrows and nodded: "Your son obeys your order."

After leaving Fengyi Palace, Xiao Jinyan ordered: "Liu Xi, ask Prince Yu to come to see me."

"Yes." Liu Xi walked quickly towards Qiancheng Hall.

Shen Chuwei grabbed the handkerchief and looked up at Xiao Jinyan secretly. It can be seen that he is very anxious and worried about the Queen's condition at this time.

Mandragora may be extremely rare in ancient times, but it is not a rare species in modern times.

Coincidentally, she has a little mandragora seeds in her space.

Even more coincidentally, when she was planting chrysanthemums a few months ago, she accidentally scattered two seeds, which have grown more than 20 centimeters at this time.

Xiao Jinyan turned his head to look at Shen Chuwei. Fortunately, he took her to pay respects to his mother today, otherwise he would not have discovered so easily that his mother was chronically poisoned.

And the bag of fragrant powder.

He smeared the scented powder on his brother Xiao Jinyu, because his brother and the queen mother were very close, and it was easy for him to get the scented powder on him.

That’s why the queen mother had a red face.

“Fortunately, you found it in time, otherwise the queen mother’s life would be in danger.”

Shen Chuwei said: "Your Highness, you are too kind. I just happened to hear it. Your Highness is smart to ask the imperial physician to treat the Queen so quickly."

Xiao Jinyan chuckled. He had seen Shen Chuwei's skill in flattery. Unlike others who flattered blindly, he did not dislike it.

Not long after entering the East Palace, they arrived at a fork in the road. One road led to Xiyun Pavilion and the other led to the prince's bedroom.

Xiao Jinyan stopped and turned to face Shen Chuwei. Seeing that many snowflakes fell on her black hair, he reached out to help her put on the fox fur hat.

"Go back and rest first. I still have things to deal with."

After Xiao Jinyan finished speaking, he walked towards the bedroom. As soon as he stepped out, his sleeve was grabbed by someone. He turned back and looked at Shen Chuwei in confusion, "Xiao Jiu, is there anything else?"

"Your Highness, I want to take you to see something." Shen Chuwei hesitated before because she didn't know how to explain the origin of the mandragora. In fact, even without the mandragora, the spiritual spring water can cure all poisons, but it is difficult to explain the origin of the spiritual spring.

Xiao Jinyan asked: "What are you looking at?"

Shen Chuwei kept it a secret for a while, "Your Highness, come with me and you will know."

Xiao Jinyan hesitated for a while and nodded.

Shen Chuwei took Xiao Jinyan back to Xiyun Pavilion, holding a lantern, and walked towards the backyard.

Xiyun Pavilion was originally a remote warm pavilion, covering a large area, and there was a bamboo forest deep in the backyard.

There was a rockery next to the bamboo forest. No one usually came here, let alone palace lanterns, there were not even stones to illuminate.
