An Xiyue finally coaxed the old lady to drink more than half a bowl of porridge, ate two fresh meat dumplings, and chatted with the old lady before getting up and leaving.
As soon as he left the door of Ruixueyuan, he saw Butler Liu running towards Ruixueyuan out of breath.
An Xiyue stopped Butler Liu: "Has Uncle Liu found my father?"
"Miss, I'm looking for you. Someone has come from the palace. The father-in-law who delivered the message said that he will announce the arrival of the miss to the palace immediately. I have found the miss, but I can't call him back. He is still drunk."
"My father rarely drinks and his drinking capacity is not good. Didn't he go to the Yamen on errands this morning?" An Xiyue had always known that her father was timid and his drinking capacity was not good, so he rarely drank.
"Oh, it's not that I didn't go. I rarely drink like this. It's true for me this time. It's not easy for me to work in the Household Department. If I'm so drunk that I can't go to the Yamen, I might be reported to you. Small shoes to wear.”
An Xiyue was shocked: "Who did my father drink with to get so drunk?"
"Who else could it be? The eldest son of Prince Yu's Mansion, I heard he drank until dawn." Butler Liu had just returned from Qinzhu Yayuan.
An Xiyue was suddenly startled. Recalling what happened in the middle of the night yesterday, her face turned red. He left at that hour, so why did his father drink with him?
"Miss An, please make it easy for us to find our family. Come on, the emperor is waiting for you." Eunuch Fu hurriedly ran in. Guan Guan Liu had originally arranged for him to have tea in the front hall, but after finishing a cup of tea, there was still no one there. Fu Eunuch My father-in-law couldn't sit still.
An Xiyue naturally recognized Eunuch Fu and said in surprise: "Eunuch Fu, what happened?"
"The third prince was attacked on his way back to the capital and was poisoned. Now he is in danger. The imperial doctor in the palace is helpless. Doctor Shen recommended asking Miss An for help." Eunuch Fu took An Xiyue and walked out without waiting for her to go back to report. old lady.
"But I'm not good at detoxifying." An Xiyue was not shocked.
"Nangong... the Crown Prince's friend is a master of detoxification. Mr. Yuwen is very knowledgeable about poisons. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate for me to go..."
"It's Miss An who was recommended by Mr. Yuwen and Dr. Shen. I heard that your silver needles can bring people back to life." Eunuch Fu didn't know medical skills and couldn't explain clearly. The general idea was to ask An Xiyue to save the Third Prince. .
"Then I'll go back to the courtyard to get the silver needles first." An Xiyue wanted to take the set of needles Mei Zongzheng gave him, and then Eunuch Fu walked to the other side with An Xiyue.
Mother Liu came out and saw what was going on. She quickly went into the house and told the old lady about the situation in the courtyard.
The old lady said calmly: "Girl Yue will not follow the path shown to her by me, an old woman, so just let her go."
In the darkness, An Xilin stood under a banyan tree, watching this scene quietly, with a sinister light in her eyes, and she tightened her fists, wishing to kill An Xiyue immediately.
Magpie stood beside the third young lady, and was so frightened by the cold light in the third young lady's eyes that she took two steps back. She didn't know what the deep hatred between the third young lady and the eldest lady was, but the third young lady was suddenly very generous to her and rewarded her casually. She had two taels of silver, which was undoubtedly a timely help for her.
After An Xiyue and Eunuch Fu left, An Xilin came out from behind the banyan tree and walked towards the other side.
Anxilin turned out of the side door, and there was a luxurious carriage waiting for her behind the side door. Anxilin got on the carriage familiarly, and glanced at the magpie coldly, "You can come up too."
Magpie followed obediently, lowering her head and not daring to speak. It was not her place to ask where the third lady was going.
