items before the King of Beijang and his entourage left the palace. They should be on their way to the Fourth Prince's Residence now."Zhao Li didn't expect Zhou Zhiyao to have everything arranged. He...Knowing Xiao Qin was both very anxious and worried, Ning'er now disregarded the injury on her arm.

"Looking at her seriously, he said, 'My lady, everything I just said is true. From the pulse, there seems to be nothing wrong with your body, and the fetus in your womb appears to be fine as well.'"

"By her pulse, I've confirmed that the child in the princess's womb is not dead as that Zhi'er claimed."

"Speaking of which, she pursed her lips, "However, if the County Princess is still worried, then let the servant take your pulse again to be sure"

Xiaoqin would certainly not refuse, and immediately nodded, "Good, Ning'er, then trouble you."

Ning'er hummed in response and took Xiaoqin's wrist, once again feeling her pulse.

After a while, Ning'er still came to the same conclusion: there seemed to be nothing wrong with Xiaoqin's fetus.

But not only Ye Er and Xiao Qin were uneasy, even Ning'er didn't believe it.

She didn't think Zhi'er, that woman, had a conscience for not finding something to attack Xiaoqin about.

At this moment, Yun Si, who was standing nearby, suddenly said, "Ning'er, that woman just mentioned that our Bei Jiang Wangfu has the ability to defend against gu worms. Could it be..."

Without needing any further explanation from Yun Si, Ning'er instantly understood. Her brows furrowed as she asked, "Is there fire"

Yun Si nodded and hummed in agreement, then directly took out the firestarter from his body.

Taking the firestarter, Ning'er didn't say a word and used the fire to warm Xiaoqin's sleeve.

Sure enough, a pale purple flame appeared.

Lavender, is the color that appears when a gu worm meets fire.

As expected, Zhi'er had already attempted to put a curse on Xiaoqin, but unfortunately, it was unsuccessful.

Ye Er and Xiao Qin couldn't understand Ning'er's intention.

But Ye Er clearly felt that Ning'er seemed to have subconsciously let out a sigh of relief after doing this.

After a moment of contemplation, he couldn't help but ask, "Miss Ning'er, what's going on here"

Ning'er came to her senses, put away the fire starter, and calmly explained, "Lord Ye and the County Princess needn't worry. Today, Zhi'er indeed wanted to use a curse on the County Princess, to control her, but she was unsuccessful."

At this point, she glanced at Xiaoqin's clothes and suddenly said, "It seems that the princess has been listening to my servant's words these days, and her clothes are all soaked in the medicinal water from our Bei Jiang Wangfu."

Xiaoqin didn't know why she brought this up, but at the moment she nodded honestly, "Yes, ever since you said that soaking clothes in that potion could reduce trouble, I had my maids soak their laundry for a quarter of an hour after every wash."

Indeed.

Ning'er smirked, "That's right, the medicine our princess gifted to the county lord has the effect of warding off gu poison."

"Each person in our Wangfu has this scent of medicine, so the insects can't rely on us."

"The reason the County Princess and Master Ye were not successfully tricked by Zhi'er was because they always soaked their clothes in the medicinal water from our manor."

This caused the garments to have a scent that repelled insects, so even when Zhi'er tried to put a curse on the county princess, she was unsuccessful.

After Ning'er explained, both Ye Er and Xiaoqin finally understood.

I finally understand why the Northern Border Princess had repeatedly instructed them to soak their everyday clothes in the medicine when she gave it to them.

It turned out that the people from Beijang Wangfu had helped them again this time.

Otherwise, if that Zhi'er really poisoned Xiaoqin, Ye Er and Xiaoqin wouldn't know how to live their lives.

After all, there are very few people in this world who can cure poisons. Even the people of Beijang王府 don't have that ability.

Upon thinking of this, Ye Er arched his hand and bowed deeply to Yun Si and Ning'er. "Ye is deeply grateful for the great kindness and favor of Prince Bei Jiang's Mansion."

Yun Si quickly reached out to help him up. "Lord Ye, please don't be so humble. The county princess and our Madam are friends, and besides, if it weren't for the North Border Wangfu, Lord Ye and the county princess wouldn't have been involved in such danger."

All that is happening now, if one were to really delve into the cause and effect, it's hard to say who owes whom.

So Yun Si then changed the subject, saying, "Zhi'er has returned to the palace. Right now, the Emperor has been poisoned, and there won't be any trouble in the palace for a while."

"Lord Ye and the County Princess need not worry. The Emperor will not cause trouble for the Ye Residence during this time."

Speaking of this, Yun Si suddenly remembered Jiang Rongwen, the Minister of Personnel from the Jiang family.

Although Jiang Qingyang's death was related to the prince's manor, it was also greatly connected to Xiaoqin on the surface.

Therefore, someone like Jiang Rongwen would not let the Ye Residence go.

After some thought, Yun Si still reminded, "Lord Ye and the County Princess should be more careful of people from the Jiang residence these days."

This matter didn't need Yun Si to remind him; Ye Er was very clear about it as well.

He nodded, "Don't worry, I know what to do. And...I'll have someone deal with the Jiang Residence, so that Jiang Rongwen won't get another chance to cause trouble at the Prince's Manor."

Yun Si knew that as long as Ye DaRen spoke, he could make it happen.

At this moment, he bowed to Ye Er and said, “Then thank you, Sir Ye.”

They now have to guard against the people of Bai Guang Palace, so it is good to have one fewer enemy.

Now, if Lord Ye could maneuver with the Jiang Family and divert Jiang Rongwen's anger, so that the Beiqiang Royal Manor wouldn't be affected by his unreasonable demands...

Indeed, this can motivate the Northern Border Prince's Mansion to go all out against those from Bai Guang Palace.

A few people were chatting at the door for a while. Suddenly, Xiao Qin exclaimed in surprise, as if she had just realized, "Oh my, Ning'er, you're hurt! You should go back and take care of it first."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Yun Si and Ye Er, her face full of worry. "You two stop talking first, let Ning'er tend to his injuries."

Xiaoqin's reminder made Yunsi quickly come to his senses. He was so engrossed in talking with Ye Dairen that he almost forgot about Ning'er's injury.

Mainly, after Ning'er got hurt, she kept a composed face and didn't let anyone see that she was injured.

So, for a while he completely forgot about it.

After regaining his composure, he hurriedly bid farewell to Ye Er and Xiao Qin, then brought Ning'er into the mansion.

Looking at the tightly shut palace gate, Ye Er and Xiao Qin exchanged glances before turning back to the carriage waiting for them at the Ye Mansion.

Two people got into the carriage. Ye Er suddenly hugged Xiaoqin in his arms, holding her extremely tightly.

At this moment, a wave of fear washed over him. He trembled as he held Xiaoqin in his arms.

Finally...finally, he and Xiaoqin were safe.

No one knew how worried he was, within the palace walls, about what those people might do to Xiaoqin.

He wasn't afraid of death, what he feared most was that even in death, he wouldn't be able to protect Xiaoqin.

Even without language, Xiao Qin could understand Ye Er's feelings.

Because she, just like Ye Er, felt a shiver down her spine whenever she thought about what had happened in the palace today.

Now that she had finally escaped Chier and hadn't been tricked by her, the weight on her heart could finally be lifted. trip to the capital"“……”When Yun Rui asked this, Sun Gaoting felt a bad premonition. He pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment before finally nodding. "To answer you, sir, I have indeed met...
