After the prince sat down, he invited Chu Chengyao to sit with him. Chu Chengyao stood at the door and did not enter the room. He only said that he had been sitting in the front hall for too long and wanted to stand for a while.
The prince chatted with the man in brocade clothes for a while, looked at Lin Jinyan who was sitting far away by the window, and smiled at the man in brocade clothes:
"Xiang Heng, this is Taifu Lin's granddaughter, Lin Shanchang's daughter."
The man in brocade clothes sat with his head straight: "Ms. Lin."
Prince: "Miss Lin, this is Mr. Zheng Ge's eldest grandson."
Lin Jinyan bowed and saluted: "Mr. Zheng."
Prince: "Xiang Heng, you have always loved painting. Miss Lin's paintings are famous in Kyoto. The painting I showed you a few days ago was made by Miss Lin."
Hearing this, Zheng Xiangheng looked at Lin Jinyan seriously.
"Your Highness is overly complimentary. I once heard from my grandfather that Mr. Zheng Ge's calligraphy treasures are hard to come by. Even His Majesty has a treasure. How dare I dare to do anything in front of Mr. Ge's descendants?"
Chu Chengyao watched the three people talking and laughing, and glanced at the incense burner from the corner of his eye from time to time, as well as the faces of Zheng Xiangheng and the prince, and he was very confused:
Why did he get hit just a short time after he entered, but the two of them sat there for a long time and still didn't respond?
While he was thinking about it, the prince suddenly raised his hand to touch his forehead:
"Why do I suddenly feel a surge of energy and blood, as if I've been drinking alcohol."
After the prince finished speaking, Zheng Xiangheng also frowned and closed his eyes hard. He wanted to shake his head to wake up, but he didn't want to make him even more dizzy after shaking his head.
The prince's personal entourage came forward, glanced at the incense burner with concern and inquiry, and said sternly:
"Your Highness, I'm afraid this fragrance has been tampered with, so I'm going to find your imperial doctor right now."
As he spoke, he picked up the incense burner and put it outside the house, then turned to look at Lin Jinyan who was walking over:
"Miss Lin, please take care of His Highness here until the young doctor comes back."
Lin Jinyan agreed. Chu Chengyao had a premonition of danger and hurriedly escaped. He raised his hand to stop his followers:
"It's better for me to go, and you'll stay here to guard my brother."
Afraid of being blocked by the prince, Chu Chengyao ignored the prince's call and strode away after speaking. Before he could leave the courtyard, he was blocked by the princess who rushed over.
His personal entourage came forward to explain the whole story. The Crown Princess sent him to ask for the imperial doctor, but she followed the Crown Prince's instructions and took Chu Chengyao into the house. Seeing that she couldn't leave, Chu Chengyao simply calmed down and faced the Crown Prince. Concerned about the situation, I was thinking about various countermeasures.
Hearing that the prince was in trouble, the eldest princess and the prince-in-law hurried over with the doctors in the mansion.
The doctor carefully checked their pulses, checked the incense burner outside the house, and took out a small porcelain bottle from the medicine box for the two of them to sniff:
"The incense in this incense burner is mixed with something. I can't tell exactly what it is, but it is definitely not an ordinary incense. Smelling it can make people's hearts and blood flow."
After sniffing the ointment, the prince sobered up a lot, his face was gloomy, and he looked at Chu Chengyao with dangerous eyes:
"Second brother, why are you lighting such incense here?"
Chu Chengyao looked calm: "This is Yun Ping's mansion, why does the emperor ask me?"
Prince Consort: "Yun Ping and the consort are meeting guests in the front yard. Just now Xiang Heng and I saw with our own eyes that you and Miss Lin are the only ones here. Could it be that Miss Lin ordered it?"
Lin Jinyan knelt down and apologized: "I have been wronged. I was brought here by the maid at the invitation of the Crown Princess. This is the first time I came to the princess's mansion. Everything is strange. There is no one to guide me. I can't find this courtyard." Your Highness is the Crown Prince, and plotting against the Crown Prince is a crime of confiscating the family and annihilating the clan. My daughter must not dare to do so, and please be aware of it."
Chu Chengyao's eyebrows jumped when he heard the sentence of murdering the crown prince: This damn girl is talking nonsense... I couldn't understand it at first, but now it's even worse...
