Ye Zhen was worried about Murong Ke. She was not cold-hearted. For so many years, Murong Ke had done too many things for her. He even sacrificed his life to protect her. She didn't know how to repay him. She only hoped that he could be safe, meet another beloved woman in the future, and live a happy life.
Song Jiong furrowed his brows. "Don't you know that after you disappeared, the Pavilion Master rushed back to the capital from Nanyue, fought with the Emperor, and even abandoned the throne? Now, our Pavilion Master is no longer the Sixth Prince."
She really didn't know about this!
Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment. Why did Murong Ke abandon the throne?
"Empress, now that I have said what I should say, if there is nothing else, I will leave?" Song Jiong said.
"Your Lord told you to stay in the capital, didn't he?" Ye Zhen glanced at him.
Song Jiong's face stiffened for a moment. Could it be that she could read minds? She even knew this?
Ye Zhen smiled. "If you leave now, are you going to tell your Lord that this Empress wants you to go?"
This time, Song Jiong really couldn't laugh. That was his plan.
"Empress, it's useless for me to stay." Song Jiong said helplessly. If he stayed, it didn't matter. The key was that there was nothing he could do.
Ye Zhen said lightly, "Who said that? Maybe there will be something for you to do soon."
"…" Song Jiong was speechless for a while.
Just then, Hong Ling came to report that Marquis Jingning had woken up.
Ye Zhen stood up and walked out immediately. Song Jiong also restrained his expression and followed her to see Tang Zhen.
With the help of Ye Zhen's acupuncture to force the poison out of Tang Zhen's body and the medicine from the spirit spring, he didn't wake up this time. He just looked sluggish and didn't know what was going on. He couldn't even recognize his own men.
"Empress, this poison will disturb people's mind. I'm afraid that Marquis Jingning has forgotten who he is." Duanmu Ya took Tang Zhen's pulse. When he saw Ye Zhen come in, he whispered his judgment to her.
Ye Zhen looked at Tang Zhen worriedly. She walked to the couch and looked at him. "Marquis Jingning, do you still remember me?"
In a trance, Tang Zhen heard a sweet voice. He looked up at the speaker, and a trace of clarity seemed to be injected into his muddy memory. "Yao Yao …"
When the people at the side heard him call the Empress by her name, their expressions changed slightly.
"Big Brother Tang, do you still remember me?" Ye Zhen was delighted. It seemed that Tang Zhen had not completely lost his mind.
"Yaoyao …" Tang Zhen still said the name, but he couldn't say anything else.
"Niang niang, if we want to wake Marquis Jingning up, we need to have the antidote." Duanmu Ya said. But they didn't even know the recipe for the poison, so how were they going to use the antidote?
Ye Zhen saw that Tang Zhen was still delirious and worried. "You were with Marquis Jingning. How could he be poisoned?"
"Your Ladyship, the Marquis had always been with us. One night, the Marquis said that he had found a clue and asked us to split up to search for it. After that, we didn't see the Marquis for two days. When we saw him again, the Marquis … the Marquis …"
"What happened to Marquis Jingning?" Ye Zhen asked sharply.
"He slaughtered more than a hundred people from the Seven Stars Escort Agency. He was inhumane and couldn't recognize others. His men wanted to stop him but two of them were killed. If he hadn't met our Pavilion Master, I'm afraid he would still be killing people outside." Song Jiong whispered.
Tang Zhen's men's eyes flashed with sadness. They looked at the delirious Tang Zhen and did not speak.
"The Marquis killed people because he was poisoned." A young guard shouted.
His voice was so loud that Tang Zhen was frightened. His pale face turned black. "Ah ah ah … ah ah ah …"
Yan Han immediately protected Ye Zhen behind her.
"Marquis!" Several guards immediately stood by the bed.
Duanmu Ya went to check Tang Zhen's pulse. Fortunately, Tang Zhen only shouted loudly and did not beat people crazily as at the beginning.
"His pulse is too fast. His poison will take effect." Duanmu Ya said.
Ye Zhen took out a pill. "Feed it to him."
Duanmu Ya took the pill and looked at it for a while. He smelled a fragrance but couldn't tell what it was. He fed it to Tang Zhen and after a while, Tang Zhen calmed down.
What is this? It's amazing.
"Let Marquis Jingning rest." Ye Zhen whispered.
"Niang niang, what did you give Marquis Jingning to eat?" Duanmu Ya asked curiously.
Ye Zhen glanced at him. "A detoxification pill."
Duanmu Ya looked at Ye Zhen with bright eyes.
"Even if I tell you, you won't be able to make it." Ye Zhen said lightly.
"…" Duanmu Ya felt a wave of disdain.
Ye Zhen returned to the Yong Shou Palace. She went to get the medicinal herbs from the space and personally prepared the detoxification prescription. She asked Hong Ling to send it to the Imperial Hospital. The detoxification effect may be better with the space's elixirs. Now, to know how Tang Zhen was poisoned, she had to wait until he woke up.
She didn't know when Mo Rongzhan would come back.
"Mother, where did father go?" Ming Yu came over and looked at Ye Zhen with great grievance.
"Father went out to do something. He will be back in two days." Ye Zhen comforted her daughter. "Ming Yu, be good, okay?"
Ming Yu's eyes were slightly red. "Father lied. He said he would take me to see the fireworks today."
"Brother will take you to see." Ming Xi came over and said softly to his sister.
"Really?" Ming Yu's eyes lit up as she looked at Ming Xi and Yan Xiaoliu.
"Mother is busy, brother will play with you." Although Ming Xi didn't know what happened, he could see the heavy faces of Xue Lin and others. He could guess that something must have happened. As a brother, he naturally had the responsibility to take care of his sister at this time.
Ye Zhen looked at Ming Xi with a smile. She used to worry that her son was too young and mature, but now she felt that her son was sensible. "Ming Yu will play with brother first. Mother has something to do."
"Okay." With her brother and Yan Xiaoliu accompanying her, Ming Yu soon put the sadness of not being able to find her father behind her.
"Song Jiong." Ye Zhen whispered, "This consort has one thing for you to do."
"What is it?" Song Jiong asked.
Ye Zhen looked coldly in the direction of the Imperial Hospital. "You have seen several of Lu Lingzhi's men. Zhong Yue chased a Thousand-handed Spider Hall Master to the capital, but in the end, she found nothing. This consort thinks that there must be Lu Lingzhi's men in the capital. Maybe we can find them and trace his whereabouts. This matter … I leave it to you. How many people do you need to help you?"
"That's not necessary. We still have people in Qian Luocha." Song Jiong said, "Then I'll go out of the palace to find them."
"Be careful." Ye Zhen whispered.
