“You just said that Lan’er was poisoned?” Prince Min’s eyes were filled with disbelief.

‘Lan’er had been poisoned, so it means that…’

It meant that Little Nine’s kick would not have killed her.

It was because someone had wanted to use Liu Lan against Little Nine, and as a result, it almost killed his precious granddaughter!

“And…” That physician sighed lightly. “This poison, it is a potent poison. I do not know what cure you have used to detoxify her of it, but usually, the poisoned person would certainly die.”

“Die?” Prince Min’s eyes narrowed as he panted.

The physician nodded slightly. “Yes, the toxin is extracted from the mandala. It is a potent poison. It would take effect within an hour! The person will not die immediately, but the time of her death will not be too slow either. So I do not know what Young Lady has taken to cure the poison…”

‘Within an hour?

‘Then that meant Lan’er was poisoned one hour ago.

‘What was she doing an hour before?

‘She met Mu Qingya!

‘And, that Mu Qingya was complaining to her about being bullied.

‘Lan’er is close to Mu Qingya. Since Mu Qingya was bullied, she would certainly not be quiet about it. That was why she ran over to settle accounts with Little Nine…

‘She then was kicked by Little Nine, when she also happened to be poisoned, and almost died!’

Prince Min looked up. His bloodshot gaze was fixed upon Mu Qingya, his eyes were filled with anger.

“Mu Qingya!”

He gritted his teeth before he uttered these words.

Mu Qingya trembled hard as she breathed laboriously with panic in her eyes.

Mu Yi also froze. He turned to Mu Qingya, horrified.

‘Impossible. Qingya has always been good-tempered, gentle, and kind. So how could it be possible for her to poison Liu Lan?’

Therefore…

He gritted his teeth and stood up. “Prince Min, there must be some misunderstanding. There is no way Qingya would do such a thing.”

When Little Nine was misunderstood just now, he did not say a word in defense.

Now that it was Mu Qingya instead, he panicked and started to explain on her behalf.

It was ridiculous that he still kept thinking that he owed Little Nine!

“Misunderstanding? Hahahaha!” Prince Min laughed angrily. “Your emperor’s son-in-law’s physician told me that what he said before was not true. But now, this is Prince Min’s Manor’s physician. Are you going to tell me that what he said is also a lie?”

His breathing grew heavy, and he questioned sternly, gritting his teeth.

The physician became angry, stood up straight, and looked at Mu Yi. “Does this mean that what I said is not true? Since you think my words are false, then let the imperial physician in the palace determine to see if what I said is true or not. You can find as many people as you want, but it will not change the fact that she was poisoned an hour ago!

Mu Yi’s body stiffened, and his clenched fists were trembling.

“I remember…” Liu Lan finally came back to her senses. She looked at Mu Qingya in disbelief. “When she came, she brought me a bowl of soup… I was still wondering, for what reason did she make soup for me…”

However, she never thought that Mu Qingya would even harm her just to get to Little Nine!

They were friends!

Liu Lan closed her eyes sorrowfully. Her heart was aching, knowing the fact that she almost died just now… It was hard to accept…
