Chapter 958: Chapter 630 The Truth Revealed, Revenge_2

After arriving in Nanzhao Country, I met Xiao Jiu and never before had I felt so happy.

Feng Wuyou said, "No wonder your complexion always seemed so pale to me, I thought that was just your natural skin tone."

Thinking back, Ouyang Jingyuan remembered how Xiao Jiu would always gaze at him and comment on how pale his face was, poking it with her small finger and seriously asking, "Brother Ayuan, did you put flour on your face?"

Having returned to the East Palace, Feng Wuyou and Ouyang Jingyuan parted ways.

When Xiao Jinyan returned, she saw Feng Wuyou had not yet slept and asked, "Why haven’t you slept?"

Feng Wuyou got up from the bed, "Jinyan, I was waiting for you."

"What’s the matter? Is there something you want to tell me?" Xiao Jinyan walked to the bed and sat down, looking up at her.

Feng Wuyou moved closer and took Xiao Jinyan’s arm, saying, "Jinyan, Prince Uncle was drugged by Concubine Wanxin today and he almost lost his virtue."

Xiao Jinyan had only seen Concubine Wanxin a few times and had not interacted with her much; she seemed so gentle, yet she had her schemes.

In this palace, drugging others for favor was all too common.

"So Concubine Wanxin failed in her attempt."

Feng Wuyou stared at Xiao Jinyan for a while, somewhat puzzled, "Why aren’t you the least bit worried about your brother?"

Xiao Jinyan simply said, "He’s almost twenty, if he can’t see through these petty tricks, he can only blame himself."

Feng Wuyou had no comeback and decided to change the subject, "By the way, Concubine Han was poisoned with a Blood Poisonous Insect; it’s lucky that Brother Ayuan arrived today in time, or the consequences would’ve been unthinkable."

Doubt flickered in Xiao Jinyan’s eyes, "How could there be Poisonous Insects in the palace?"

Feng Wuyou shrugged, "I don’t know either, Brother Ayuan said the Blood Poisonous Insect is difficult to concoct, and not just anyone has it."

Xiao Jinyan pondered for a moment and immediately thought of Concubine Wanxin, "It’s clear the one who poisoned Concubine Han with ill intent, likely aiming for Yuyu, could very well be Concubine Wanxin."

Feng Wuyou felt that Xiao Jinyan’s analysis made a lot of sense. Indeed, the women in the palace were frightening.

Xiao Jinyan said, "Go to rest early. It’s getting late."

Feng Wuyou yawned, "Then I’ll go to sleep first."

After seeing her lie down, Xiao Jinyan stood up to go and bathe.

The next day, Susu happily ate Dumpling Soup and little milk buns.

Dabai would eat anything Susu fed it, never being picky.

After breakfast, Feng Wuyou went with Ouyang Jingyuan to Qiancheng Hall.

Ouyang Leyuan felt somewhat gloomy, watching Susu play with Dabai curiously, wondering how such a big child could be fearless around a tiger?

The mighty tiger was indeed ferocious, but it became docile around Susu.

However, Leyuan didn’t dare to approach, as Dabai didn’t like her getting close.

In her boredom, she left Hehuan Hall and looked around the vast East Palace, refusing to believe there were no other women.

Qiancheng Hall

Xiao Jinyu had stood watch over Ayan all night, but Ayan had not yet woken up.

In a state of extreme anxiety, Feng Wuyou and Ouyang Jingyuan arrived.

"Sister-in-law, Ayan has yet to wake up."

"Let me take a look," Feng Wuyou approached the bed and sat down, reaching for Concubine Han’s hand to feel her pulse.

As she took the pulse, she looked up at Concubine Han, noting her complexion. After the Poisonous Insects were removed, her color hadn’t improved, but it hadn’t worsened either.

Feng Wuyou let go of Concubine Han’s hand, "Concubine Han is just too weak. She needs nourishment and rest."

Xiao Jinyu asked, "So she should continue with her medication?"

Feng Wuyou nodded, "Keep taking it; once Concubine Han’s spirit improves, medication will no longer be needed."

"I understand," Xiao Jinyu had worried all night, and even now, he dared not breathe a sigh of relief.

Xiao Jinyu cared for Concubine Han, leaving no time for Wanxin.

Wanxin had spent the last night without sleep, and now had serious dark circles. Sitting on the couch, she remembered how Xiao Jinyu, in order to stay awake, had resorted to pricking his own thigh with a jade hairpin.

Thinking of his departure without a backward glance, she felt heartbroken and discontented. Why couldn’t Xiao Jinyu afford her even a second look?

In what ways was she inferior to Concubine Han?

"Master, the Prince is probably angry right now," Xiaohe cautiously said, "Wait until he cools down, and then you can appease him. Maybe then he won’t be angry anymore."

Wanxin clutched the handkerchief tightly, "No, I want to see the Prince now."

Wanxin stood up and walked out, lifting the curtain as she went.

Xiaohe quickly followed after her.

When Wanxin arrived at the Side Hall, she was stopped by the Guard, "The Prince has ordered that without his permission, no one is allowed inside."

Undeterred, Wanxin said, "Then go report to the Prince that I have urgent matters and wish to see him."
