Ye Ning hurried to Jun Lin’s side.
"Senior brother, is what you said true?"
"Yes," Jun Lin told her. "Because I have had exposure in the Organization, so I thought more about other possibilities. These microscopic elents are very hard to detect in ordinary examinations."
Indeed, with exposure to abundant information in the Organization, only through aggregation of various data points does one encounter all sorts of strange things.
She sighed, "But why is it like this?"
"Perhaps soone doesn’t want the little prince to succeed the throne."
But he is just six years old, those people are too cruel, even mistreating a child.
Perhaps, this is the tragedy of being born into the royal family?
At this point, a ssenger from Ai Nianhe arrived.
"Doctor Jun, His Majesty has requested you to discuss on the young prince’s treatnt."
Jun Lin patted Ye Ning, "You go check on the young prince."
"Okay."
All of a sudden, the entire hospital was put under lockdown.
Ye Ning could understand; on one hand, this was to prevent any leakage of information and on the other hand, it was to ensure a thorough investigation was conducted by those acquainted with the situation, so as to not let the culprits destroy any evidence upon exposure.
The doctors and nurses were also quarantined, no one was allowed to enter or exit the hospital.
They found it peculiar, but when it involved the anxiety-inducing royal family, they were helpless.
Aware of the severity of the situation, they assured themselves that it would be business as usual once they left. Yet, the unsettling feeling was hard to ignore when they saw the hospital completely sealed off and all communication devices confiscated.
Over there, Ye Ning approached the worried butler Ai Zhong and asked, "How is everything, Butler Ai?"
"His Majesty is furious, but knowing my loyalty to the royal family and the young prince, I’m not a problem, but others... might need to be scrutinized more thoroughly."
Ye Ning asked, "Can I inform Mu Yeli about this?"
"I’m afraid not, but sooner or later, Mr. Mu will find out. Don’t worry."
"Then... can I ask my mother to send sothing over? Have soone relay the ssage to her. I had promised to celebrate her birthday this week, but I haven’t had the chance to do so. I’m worried that she will be scared if she doesn’t hear from . Let’s have her deliver sothing for , just to let her see I’m at the hospital, okay?"
She thought she could have her mother relay the ssage to Mu Yeli to save him from worrying.
After pondering for a while, Ai Zhong conceded. Ye Ning’s facial expression made it hard for him to refuse. Furthermore, her filial piety made it difficult for him to object.
He eventually nodded and said, "Alright, I will speak to the king. What would you like to send? I’ll have your mother bring it when she cos to see you."
"Thank you so much. I’m afraid she would think sothing bad happened to if she doesn’t see herself. And her health hasn’t been the best..."
"Given that you’ve brought in Doctor Jun, and discovered the poison in the young prince, His Majesty is grateful to you. However, due to the complexity of the situation, we can only keep you here; I hope you’ll understand."
"Of course, I understand."
She handed a list of items she needed to the butler. Once he left, she sat there waiting.
Shortly after, the royal family sent soone to escort Xie Yuqin.
