The butler and Imperial Doctor Li exchanged a glance, both simultaneously thinking of the sa thing.
In recent years, the Prince had been deceiving the Eighth Princess with his playboy facade. Although it wasn’t very effective, it’s safe to say that in the initial years, even the Eighth Princess was misled, thinking the Prince was truly a wastrel.
Little did they know, the Prince had been secretly investigating certain matters all these years, including those related to the Pri Minister.
It seems the Prince has uncovered sothing?
Prince ng smiled and said, "Do you still rember, hundreds of years ago, our Dayuan suffered a great calamity, when the remnants of the previous dynasty reignited. Everyone thought those rebels had been thoroughly eradicated, not knowing that so had escaped. And now this Pri Minister, with Lao Ba thinking she’s an efficient lieutenant under her command, doesn’t realize that this person harbors malicious intentions, aiming to overthrow the Dayuan Royal Family, and change the ruling dynasty!"
The butler gasped, the news was truly shocking, especially since the Pri Minister was practically second only to the Emperor.
The Eighth Princess, unaware, granted such a position to them. This Pri Minister already had significant ambitions; with this position, it’s even easier to act.
Prince ng’s lips curved slightly, "Do you know, in whose hands does the Xinsan Army currently rest?"
The butler had a foreboding sense, growing alard inside.
Prince ng laughed cheerfully, "Lao Ba tried to steal a chicken only to lose the bait. I’m quite curious, how will she react once she knows the truth? But, there’s no rush in this matter. Such an important bargaining chip, naturally, should be used last. Besides, the waters in the Capital run deep, those Five Ancient Aristocratic Families may not be truly loyal either. Otherwise, why did they stand by idly when Lao Ba plotted against the Empress Mother back then? The situation is indeed chaotic. Even I have to tread cautiously to survive."
With hands clasped behind her back, Prince ng looked at a painting in the study, unable to help but think in this chaotic situation, she sowhat envied the madness of Lao Jiu.
Ninth Sister is like this now, isn’t it a kind of blessing?
"Aunt Li," Prince ng turned to look at Imperial Doctor Li. Li imdiately stepped forward, "Your Highness?"
Prince ng pondered and asked, "Did you thoroughly test that pacifying dicine I gave you recently? Is it appropriate, any harm?"
Imperial Doctor Li furrowed his brow, "This... the dicine is indeed dicine, but it contains ingredients similar to Phoenix Blood." Phoenix Blood is just a pleasant na, hearing it suggests sophistication, not like Gu poison, witchcraft, etc., which makes people think of sinister things.
But essentially, anyone familiar with the inside story knows it’s just as clear as a mirror. The so-called Phoenix Blood is rely a dicine Gu passed down through generations, avoiding the risk of resurgence.
Prince ng frowned slightly, "So, this antidote may not even cure Ninth Sister’s madness?"
Imperial Doctor Li struggled for a while, "Your Highness... I think that Senior Master Huixin... no, Marshal Baowei. She couldn’t possibly want to harm His Highness Ninth, and since it’s sothing she provided, it should be harmless."
"Better safe than sorry! What if this dicine is poisonous? If it harms Ninth Sister, if it’s detrintal to Ninth Sister, who can bear this risk? You, or ? Aunt, you must know that people’s hearts can change easily!"
Imperial Doctor Li smiled wryly and sighed lightly. In her view, it’s not that people’s hearts change easily, but that Prince ng’s vigilance is truly too intense, though it’s understandable.
