"Hui, Hui Wang Ye, this servant doesn't know."
"I really don't know, are you still fooling me?" Xiao Yan asked sharply.
"Slave, I don't dare to lie in front of the prince."
"Then why are you stammering?"
"Slave..."
Luo Yao interrupted Xiangxue with a smile, "If the prince talks to the servants in the house like this, there won't be many people who won't stutter, right?"
Xiao Yan snorted coldly, "Luo Yao, don't make excuses, I won't believe you."
"If the prince really suspects that we knocked you unconscious, he will produce evidence and find witnesses. As long as the evidence is conclusive, we will never deny it."
Xiao Yan's eyes were full of anger, his face was getting darker and darker, and he suddenly started coughing just as he was about to speak.
Doctor Zhou immediately stepped forward and advised softly: "Your Majesty was infected with wind and cold last night. You must not be angry. If you have anything to do, wait until you recover!"
Hearing this, Luo Yao raised her eyebrows proudly, "Then I won't disturb the prince's recovery. Bye~"
Waving to Xiao Yan, Luo Yao left the room with Xiangxue.
Stepping out of Xiao Yan's yard, Xiangxue was still afraid. If the young lady hadn't been there just now, she would have been unable to withstand Xiao Yan's oppression and would have taken advantage of anything.
Seeing Luo Yao stop outside the hospital, Xiangxue asked hurriedly: "Aren't we leaving?"
"Wait for Dr. Zhou to come out."
"Let's leave quickly! If the prince discovers us again, I'm afraid..."
Luo Yao approached her angrily and lowered her voice: "As long as I'm here, you don't have to be afraid of anything. Just do as I teach you."
"But I am just a slave after all. I can't help but be afraid when facing the prince."
Luo Yao took a deep breath and patted her shoulder earnestly, "Take your time. You have to overcome your fear of them and believe me wholeheartedly."
Xiangxue opened her eyes wide, pursed her lips and nodded to her, "Okay."
The two of them stood under the shade of a big tree outside Xiao Yuan's courtyard and waited for about half an hour until Doctor Zhou finally came out.
Seeing this, Luo Yao hurriedly walked towards Dr. Zhou.
"Doctor Zhou, stay."
After seeing the person clearly, Doctor Zhou bowed respectfully to Luo Yao, "I have met Princess Li. I wonder why Princess Li stopped me?"
"Take a step to speak."
Doctor Zhou looked hesitant and seemed reluctant to talk to her alone.
She smiled at Dr. Zhou and said, "Just say a few words and it won't delay Dr. Zhou for too long."
"this……"
She frowned in displeasure and said coldly: "Does Dr. Zhou even refuse to give me this face?"
"Princess, you are serious, please."
Doctor Zhou immediately compromised and made a gesture of invitation to Luo Yao.
Several people came to the small pavilion by the lotus pond. She first signaled Xiangxue to stay outside the pavilion, and then led Doctor Zhou into the pavilion.
She sat down first and motioned for Dr. Zhou to sit down as well.
Doctor Zhou didn't sit down and spoke directly, "Princess, just say what you want to say! No need to beat around the bush."
"Then let me tell you frankly, what kind of poison did the prince have, and why did he seem to be a different person at night?"
Doctor Zhou was startled and looked at Luo Yao with a frown.
How did she know that King Li was poisoned?
Ever since the kidnapping when he was young, King Li had been poisoned by love. After so many years, no one except him and Wuhen knew about King Li's poisoning.
King Li also gave repeated orders not to spread the affair about his love affair, but in the end he still failed to hide it from Luo Yao.
"I also know some medical skills. You can't hide the prince's pulse from me." Luo Yao said.
After weighing for a long time, Doctor Zhou still did not dare to admit rashly, "I can't understand what the princess said. The prince has never been poisoned. I don't know why the princess..."
She stood up suddenly and interrupted Doctor Zhou coldly, "I've come to ask you personally. Do you think you can fool me if you don't admit it?"
"princess……"
"I won't harm King Li, I just want to know what kind of poison he has."
Seeing that Dr. Zhou still had concerns, she added: "I will never tell King Li, so feel free to tell me."
"I really don't know what the princess is talking about."
She was almost dry with her saliva, but Dr. Zhou still refused to admit that Xiao Yan was poisoned and refused to reveal anything more to her.
What method did Xiao Yan use to make Doctor Zhou keep secret about him like this?
She turned her head and looked at the lotus flowers and lotus leaves in the pond. She could only ask in another way, "I heard that Dr. Zhou has superb medical skills. I happen to have a medical book here that I want to give to you."
Doctor Zhou bowed his hands respectfully, "No reward for no merit, I..."
"You'd better read the medical books first."
She handed the medical book she had prepared in advance to Dr. Zhou. After seeing the medical book, Dr. Zhou's eyes immediately straightened.
Isn't this the Shen Nong tastes a hundred herbs that he always wanted? This medical book can help him gain a more comprehensive understanding of the efficacy and contraindications of various herbal medicines, which will be of great help to his medical skills.
Just as he was about to reach out to pick up the medical book, Luo Yao took it back again.
"Princess, what do you mean?"
She deliberately smiled at Dr. Zhou and said, "Dr. Zhou, do you want it?"
In order to successfully get something out of Dr. Zhou, she asked Xiangxue to inquire about Dr. Zhou's preferences in advance. When she learned that he was obsessed with the research of various herbal medicines, she silently wrote the book "Shennong Tasted a Hundred Herbs" overnight, which made her have dark circles under her eyes.
"I..."
Doctor Zhou hesitated to speak, his eyes almost fell to the book Shennong Tasted Herbs.
It was obvious that he really liked this book.
She turned her eyes and put the book in Dr. Zhou's hand with a smile, "This book is for Dr. Zhou. How about we make friends?"
Dr. Zhou hesitated for a long time before accepting the book.
He wanted it so bad.
After getting the book, he held it in his arms like a treasure and was extremely happy.
After all, he was short-handed. His attitude gradually softened. He looked up at Luo Yao seriously and said, "Your Majesty has been addicted to love for many years. It is my uselessness that I have not been able to develop an antidote to cure Your Majesty."
"Poison of love?" Luo Yao exclaimed.
Doctor Zhou nodded, "This kind of poison will not harm people's lives, but it will continue to torture them. The prince will have a love poison attack every first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, and his whole personality will change drastically. The prince has been clean and self-conscious these years, and has been using ice water to suppress his emotions. It’s really hard for him when the poison breaks out.”
Xiao Yan was the God of War in Xilin and a noble prince. As long as he made a move, countless women from Pingdu would rush to him, and he even used ice water to suppress his passion.
She really didn't expect it.
"The prince was poisoned by a strange poison a few days ago. Although that poison is useless to men, it merges with the love poison in his body, causing the love poison to occur more frequently than before. If this continues..."
Whether it is frequently using ice water to suppress love poison, or complying with the onset of love poison and consummating a woman's marriage, both will bring immeasurable consequences.
Doctor Zhou didn't dare to think about it in detail.
Luo Yao frowned in confusion, "Who gave him the love poison?"
Doctor Zhou shook his head, "All the people from back then have disappeared. The prince has been tracing for so many years, but he has never found the person who poisoned him."
"Wait!" Luo Yao thought of what Doctor Zhou had said before, "What did you just say?"
