After saying that, Qi Jue gave Madam Zhuang a look, and Madam Zhuang immediately understood and stepped forward to hold Concubine Zhuang's hand.
"Now that Jue'er is fine, that's the best. Look at your eyes, which are red and swollen from crying. If you don't go back to the palace and apply ice cubes properly, traces will be left. No matter how many supplements you take,
Not coming back."
Concubine Zhuang hurriedly touched her face, but she still felt uneasy and emphasized again: "Jue'er, come here early, my mother-in-law is waiting for you in the bedroom."
"My son, I know."
When Mrs. Zhuang accompanied Concubine Zhuang back to Huaqing Palace, Zhuang Ke quickly rushed to Qi Jue's side and whispered to him: "Grand nephew, is the poison in your body really cured? You vomited a lot of blood just now, which scared me to death.
Well, if something really happens to you, how can I live if you call me uncle~"
When Zhuang Ke moved his head closer, Qi Jue quickly raised his hand, pressed the top of his head, and turned his head back.
"I'll give you a mission. Stay with your mother and concubine and watch her."
Zhuang Ke tilted his head and said, "But isn't my mother already with my sister? Why should I go there? I won't go. Nephew, I want to go with you to save Miss Yan. Dali Temple's Heavenly Prison is not a place for people to stay.
, but before anyone else got married, my niece-in-law was thrown away."
"No one will think you are mute if you don't speak. Your mission is to stay by your mother's side. I don't need you here."
Seeing that Qi Jue refused to take him, Zhuang Ke immediately acted out what it meant to be a scoundrel and hugged Qi Jue's arm, "Grand nephew, I'm very useful. Just take me with you. Take me with you, okay~
"
Qi Jue ruthlessly opened his hand and threw it to Ji Jingxue, "Take him to Huaqing Palace."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Zhuang Ke still wanted to struggle, but he had no room to struggle in Ji Jingxue's hands. He could only be carried away like a little chicken.
"Jingxue, please let go. I can really help my nephew by staying here. Don't put me aside every time you do something. I am already an adult, not a child anymore. I don't need any protection."
!”
Hearing this, Ji Jingxue didn't say anything. Instead, she let go of her hand and looked down at Zhuang Ke, who was half a head shorter than him.
Although he didn't say anything, this condescending look and this self-evident height difference made Zhuang Ke feel contempt.
"I... I'm only eighteen this year, two years younger than you, so I'm just a little bit shorter than you, but it's just a little bit shorter. Wait, when I reach my twenties, I will definitely be able to surpass you.
You are so much taller and hotter than you!"
Zhuang Ke stood on tiptoes, and in order to maintain the man's final dignity, he gestured with his hands as far as the highest distance his arms could stretch.
Ji Jingxue raised the corners of her lips slightly and rubbed his head helplessly, "Yes, you are the best, but this time the situation is different. I can tell you, but you must keep it secret, especially Concubine Zhuang.
"
Zhuang Ke suddenly felt like he was being entrusted with a heavy responsibility. He showed a serious expression and nodded vigorously, "No problem, I always have the strictest mouth. Please speak up!"
With his loud mouth, most of the time he was asked to be beaten because he was in trouble because of his unrestrained speech. I really don’t know where he got the confidence to say this.
However, Ji Jingxue didn't care about this and whispered: "The poison on Your Highness's body has not been cured."
Zhuang Ke's eyes widened in an instant, "What, the poison is not cured? But... But hasn't my nephew stopped vomiting blood and can get out of bed? What is going on?"
"Your Highness is infected with a poisonous insect. It is extremely difficult to detoxify. We have already looked for people who may be able to detoxify this poison, but we cannot guarantee how long it will take. In order to rescue Miss Yan, Your Highness,
To restore the Yuan family's innocence, they temporarily sealed the poison in the body, but the poison may attack at any time. Once it loses control again, His Highness's life will be in danger..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhuang Ke couldn't sit still, "It's so dangerous, then I must stay with my nephew!"
"His Highness is protected by me. As long as I am alive, I will never let anyone hurt him again. Although His Highness claims that the poison has been cured, Concubine Zhuang may become suspicious. Therefore, your mission is very important.
It is to stabilize Concubine Zhuang so that His Highness can act more conveniently."
Zhuang Ke suddenly became sensible, his eyes filled with tears, and he grabbed Ji Jingxue's hand.
"Jingxue, you must protect your eldest nephew, he is my sister's life, and... also, you must protect yourself, leave my sister to me, you just go and save Miss Yan!"
Ji Jingxue smiled and pinched his face, "I've remembered it all. Let's go quickly."
And here, when Queen Pei saw Qi Jue walking out of the inner hall alive, her eyes flashed with disbelief and unwillingness.
How is this possible? Qi Jue was hit by an incurable heart-eating poison. How could he still come out alive and claim that the poison has been cured?
Damn it, such a good opportunity, I didn’t kill this little bastard!
Queen Pei squeezed the handkerchief tightly and gritted her teeth unwillingly.
Suddenly, Qi Jue's cold eyes glanced towards her. Queen Pei had no time to control her expression, and Qi Jue happened to see her unwilling look.
Queen Pei's face changed at every turn, immediately switching to a motherly look, and at the same time she moved forward to hold Qi Jue's hand.
"This is really great. I know that you, Jue'er, are blessed with great fortune and will be fine!"
Qi Jue looked at her condescendingly, his eyes filled with frost, "I was not poisoned to death, but I am disappointed to see the Queen."
Queen Pei's face showed an expression of disbelief, and she covered her mouth with a handkerchief sadly, "Jue'er, my mother cares about your safety. How can you orchestrate my good intentions like this?"
"Whether it's a good intention or an ulterior motive, we will soon be able to tell."
Before Queen Pei could speak any more sophistry, Qi Jue raised his hands towards Emperor Zhao and said: "Father, please hand over the assassination case and the poisoning case to my son for thorough investigation. I will definitely make sure that the real culprit behind the scenes has nowhere to hide!"
"Your Majesty, Jue'er has just been detoxified. In addition, he has vomited so much blood just now. His body is weak. How can he take care of such trivial matters anymore? After all, investigating cases is the job of Dali Temple, and there are specialties in the art.
Although Jue'er is good at fighting, he is still not as professional as Dali Temple in terms of investigation, so we should let Dali Temple take over, and Jue'er should go back to the palace to rest and recuperate, so that Concubine Zhuang's sister won't worry about you again."
Qi Jue's eyes were cold and he sneered: "What will I do? There is no need for you to be pretentious here. The Queen, you should worry about yourself first. I will not let go of anyone related to today's incident."
Qi Jue said this while looking into Queen Pei's eyes, as if he could see through her eyes and see into her soul, leaving her with nowhere to hide!
