Everyone present looked solemn instantly.

This decoction was obviously fed to Chen Jinghuai, and it was Bai Ruizhu who personally handled the decoction every day.

Now that poison has been found in this medicine, the problem is self-evident.

The person who can't accept this the most is obviously the second lady Bai Suyi.

She staggered and almost fell, but fortunately the maid beside her caught her in time.

She never expected that Bai Ruizhu would cause such a thing.

If the two princes use their power to overpower others and want to harm Bai Ruizhu, she can still compete with them despite the pressure.

After all, the third prince will still need to rely on the Chen family's influence in the future.

If they really get into a fight, they won't let Bai Ruizhu suffer too much.

However, Bai Ruizhu is poisoning her now, and the poisoner is Chen Fusanlang. If this matter is investigated, Bai Ruizhu will not end well, and even she herself will probably be punished by her husband.

Bai Suyi said with a sad expression, "Ruizhu, why are you so stupid?"

Bai Ruizhu had obviously resigned herself to her fate, she just lowered her head and remained silent.

She was poisoned with the intention of taking Chen Jinghuai away with her, so she had no intention of covering up her crime. Now that she was discovered early, she naturally had no defense.

On the other hand, the elder sister-in-law of the Chen family, who had always been weak and didn't pay much attention to family affairs, thought about how busy Bai Suyi, the second roommate, was in charge of the house, so she only helped Bai Ruizhu and said, "Could this be done by someone else? Ruizhu usually talks to The third child is such a good friend, how could she do such a thing? Maybe she didn’t know about it and was taken advantage of by others.”

However, no one responded to her speculation.

After all, the entire process from boiling the medicine to feeding the medicine, Bai Ruizhu is not artificial.

Everyone in the house was used to her acting like this, so no one competed with her for work.

Even if it is poisoning, people in the house must have the opportunity to come into contact with it.

On the contrary, Bai Ruizhu heard this and retorted, "You don't have to defend me. I added Hedinghong in this medicine."

After telling her crime, Bai Ruizhu showed a vain smile.

"I just want my uncle to die with me." When she talked about this, her tone was light.

"Ruizhu! Auntie thinks she treats you well! How could you do such a thing?" Bai Suyi asked.

Bai Ruizhu was silent for a long time after hearing this, and finally said softly, "Auntie, just think that Ruizhu is sorry for you, but Ruizhu doesn't want to marry anyone else. Ruizhu doesn't have any big wishes, but she just wants to be with her uncle. Even if she dies, it doesn't matter." .”

After Bai Ruizhu said this, she suddenly curled up. She leaned over and retched for a while. After spitting out a large mouthful of blood, Zhao Yanzhen remembered the mouthful of decoction that Bai Ruizhu had swallowed earlier, although the decoction that Bai Ruizhu had just taken had already been eaten. It was shot out by Zhao Lang.

But this does not guarantee that Bai Ruizhu is not poisoned, and poisons such as Crane Crown Red are always extremely toxic.

At this time, Zhao Yanzhen could not rush to investigate Bai Ruizhu for poisoning the soup.

Zhao Yanzhen immediately told the servants around him, "Go and ask the doctor to come over."

Although everyone was shocked by what happened just now, after Bai Ruizhu vomited blood, some servants felt something was wrong.

Therefore, not long after Zhao Yanzhen finished speaking, someone quickly ran out.

At the same time, Zhao Yanzhen ordered Zhao Lang to perform some emergency measures on Bai Ruizhu, including picking his throat to induce vomiting.

After a period of chaos, Bai Ruizhu's life was barely under control.

Bai Suyi, who had been shocked by this series of accidents, knelt down in front of Zhao Yanzhen after a long time with a white face, "Your Highness, Ruizhu, this girl is just too stupid. She doesn't have any bad intentions. Please don't put her in front of Zhao Yanzhen." Report this matter to the head of the family!"

Zhao Yanzhen only helped Bai Suyi up, but did not immediately agree to her request. Instead, he only showed an embarrassed look, "Second Madam, this matter is of great importance. Cousin Jinghuai was poisoned. This kind of thing How can we just brush it off?"

Hearing that Zhao Yanzhen did not agree to his request, Bai Suyi refused to get up, and even the Chen family's sister-in-law knelt in front of Zhao Yanzhen to beg for mercy.

Bai Suyi naturally knew that Bai Ruizhu had made a big mistake in this matter, and it could not be improved.

It's just that her family's connections have declined, and her brother's family is now the only one left. If this matter comes to the head of the Chen family or Queen Min, how can Ruizhu survive?

Bai Suyi couldn't bear to think of Bai Ruizhu's miserable appearance when she was rescued from prison.

She bit her lip, then crawled in the tunnel and said, "Of course I know that Ruizhu made a serious mistake, but my brother's family only has one daughter left now. If she has another misfortune, I really can't explain it to my brother who is in hell. I beg the Third Highness to spare Ruizhu for the sake of Ruizhu not being fed the poison yet. If the Third Highness is able to grant me this favor, I will definitely not refuse any orders from His Highness in the future!"

Listening to her plea, Zhao Yanzhen still seemed embarrassed.

Bai Suyi continued to kowtow. Zhao Yanzhen naturally refused to accept such a great gift from her, so he only tried to help Bai Suyi up.

After all this reasoning, he seemed to have been thinking about it for a long time, and he couldn't bear to say, "If I agree to your request, what are you going to do?"

Bai Suyi naturally heard the turning point in the words.

Although she really felt sorry for her little niece. But if this matter is not severely punished, I am afraid that the third prince will not be satisfied.

Therefore, Bai Suyi bit her lip and said cruelly, "When Ruizhu wakes up, I will punish her with twenty sticks, and then send her to Shuiyue Nunnery and send someone to keep a close eye on her! She will not be allowed to come out of Shuiyue Nunnery for the rest of her life."

After her words fell, Zhao Yanzhen did not answer immediately, and she began to feel extremely anxious again.

Zhao Yanzhen didn't want to think about it, but he just said softly, "Twenty sticks are enough. Miss Ruizhu took Hedinghong herself. She must have learned a lesson. In the future, she will be sent to another place to be looked after by Zhuangzi. Don't teach her to harm others."

After hearing Zhao Yanzhen's words, Bai Suyi was naturally grateful. Although she had not had much contact with this cousin due to etiquette and rules. But now it seems that Zhao Yanzhen is indeed as kind and kind as the rumors.

Although they had always been at odds with the direct descendants of the Chen family, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with supporting such a benevolent prince.

When her husband returns home one day, she might be able to say something.

Although Zhao Yanzhen did not pursue Bai Ruizhu's matter too much, he did not leave his cousin alone. Soon after, he invited the best doctor in Beijing to treat Chen Jinghuai again.

The doctor came quickly, as if he had been waiting for him early.

While everyone was waiting for the doctor's diagnosis results, a maid running errands in the house suddenly broke into the house. She whispered a few words in Bai Suyi's ear, and Bai Suyi's expression also condensed.

The eldest lady naturally saw the change in her sister-in-law's expression, and she asked softly, "Suyi, what's wrong with you?"

Although Bai Suyi is the real housekeeper in the house, she still respects this sister-in-law very much. Basically, she doesn't hide anything from her sister-in-law.

So she spoke softly, "The young lady from the Jiang family who is the prime minister of Jinghuai came to visit me."

Hearing this, the eldest member of the Chen family also looked condensed.

After all, such a big incident has just happened now, and no one in the family has given any orders yet, and I heard that the young lady from the Jiang family also has a good impression of Jinghuai.

In addition, this young lady from the Jiang family has a delicate and savage temperament.

If she knew that Ruizhu poisoned Jinghuai, there was no telling what would happen, so they were naturally afraid of the arrival of this young lady from the Jiang family.

But at the moment, the young lady from the Jiang family hasn't married yet, and her visit to the Chen Mansion is just a guest, so she can find an excuse to leave.

Therefore, the elder sister-in-law of the Chen family took the initiative and said, "Suyi, you can stay here. I will go and receive the young lady from the Jiang family."

However, Bai Suyi's expression did not show any sign of relief. She slowly said the rest of her words, "It was Yannian who brought her to the door."

Hearing this, even the eldest son of the Chen family couldn't say anything else.

After all, the young lady from the Jiang family was just rumored to be sweet and arrogant, but their sister-in-law was actually arrogant.

No matter how much they stick together, these two sisters-in-law would not dare to confront Chen Changnian head-on.

When they were at their wits' end, Zhao Yanzhen seemed to have noticed their concerns, and he took the initiative and said, "Why don't I hold Yannian back?"

After hearing this, the two ladies naturally felt grateful to Zhao Yanzhen.

Then Zhao Yanzhen and Mrs. Chen's wife went to the main hall.

As for Jiang Nianjiao, Jiang Nianjiao has been waiting for news about Chen Jinghuai for several days since she took the truth pill. However, the news was that Chen Jinghuai was in a coma and still hasn't woken up.

She felt strange in her heart, and naturally she couldn't sit still anymore. In order to have more convenient access to the Chen Mansion, she contacted Chen Changnian.

Chen Yannian was happy to see Jiang Nianjiao interact with her brother, so she naturally agreed to Jiang Nianjiao's request.

In order for Jiang Nianjiao to come over as soon as possible, she even went to the palace to pick him up personally.

It is still raining lightly today, but fortunately it is almost the end of spring and the beginning of summer. Even in these days of continuous rain, there is no longer the coldness of early spring.

Walk through the winding promenade and then pass the cobbled orchids and fragrant xuan paths.

The two of them soon arrived at the main hall of Chen's mansion.

In the main hall of the Chen Mansion, a thin woman with plain eyebrows was sitting upright on the pear wood Taishi chair at the top.

And below her, there were a young man and a teenager.

The young man's eyebrows are as bright as jade, and his spirit is like the bright moon among the pines.

The young man has a high nose and deep eyes, and his rich and seductive beauty is impossible to ignore.

At this time, when the three people saw her coming, their eyes were fixed on Jiang Nianjiao.

When Jiang Nianjiao saw the two of them, she couldn't help but secretly sigh that she really went out today and didn't read the almanac.

Chen Yannian was not aware of the atmosphere in the hall.

She happily introduced Mrs. Chen, who was sitting at the head of the table, to Jiang Nianjiao, "Sister-in-law, this is Miss Jiang. She is here to see her brother today."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen's family only showed a warm smile, "Is this the Miss Jiang mentioned by the third brother? I have often heard Chang Nian mention you before, and now I get to see you in person. You are indeed a beauty."

When Jiang Nianjiao heard this, she just bowed to Mrs. Chen's family and said, "Thank you for your compliments."

"Miss Jiang, please sit down first. Xinhe, why don't you go and show Miss Jiang tea." Then Mrs. Chen's wife gave instructions to the people below.

It was not easy for Jiang Nianjiao to say that she was going to see Chen Jinghuai as soon as she entered the Chen Mansion, so she also sat with Mrs. Chen's family for a while.
