Old Cui snorted. “If I don’t eat, where would I have the strength to treat your Princely Heir… Uh, no, teach your Princely Heir Consort medicine? It’s also very tiring to be a teacher!”

Shadow Six rolled his eyes.

Old Cui looked at Yu Wan. “Also, doll, why did you bring the imperial physician to the manor? Do you know that I almost exposed myself?!”

It was sent by the Empress. Yu Wan just didn’t remind him in advance. “Who asked you not to be an official properly back then and have to help the wicked?”

“Ahem.” Old Cui lost his confidence after bringing up the past.

The Empress had sent Imperial Physician Liang over firstly to treat Yan Jiuchao’s illness, and secondly, to understand if Yan Jiuchao’s body could withstand Prince Qing’s appointment as the Crown Prince. Yu Wan did not ask about the results of the pulse checkup. If Old Cui could not even fool an imperial physician, then he could forget about curing Yan Jiuchao.

Old Cui took a bite of the mutton leg and said, “Fortunately, I’m smart. I changed my appearance and even changed your Princely Heir’s pulse. That Liang fellow at most diagnosed that the pulse is uneven, but why was it uneven? Let him rack his brains!”

In that case, the Empress was not sure if Yan Jiuchao’s body was good or bad. This was the best outcome.

Yu Wan returned to the topic. “What did you say about Lady Wan of Bright Deportment and Grand Marshal Xiao discussing marriage?”

“Yes, what happened?” Shadow Six asked. This was a grudge from the previous generation. Even though Shadow Six was a scout, he would not investigate the background of a lady of Bright Deportment for no reason.

The reason why Old Cui knew was all thanks to Worthy Consort Xu. There was almost nothing in the harem that Worthy Consort Xu did not know. As the saying goes, know yourself and know the enemy, and you will win every battle. Worthy Consort Xu did not get to where she was today by luck.

Old Cui entered the room and chewed on a mutton leg. “Aren’t the two Xiao families on good terms? Master Xiao Wu often brings his sister to the Marshal Manor to visit. After a while, the two families are even more familiar with each other. Old Mrs. Xiao admires Lady Wan of Bright Deportment very much and wants her to be her daughter-in-law, but doesn’t Xiao Zhenting like Princess Consort Yan? So this marriage is over!”

Worthy Consort Xu had once thought of using their engagement to suppress Lady Wan of Bright Deportment. Unfortunately, there was no evidence. It was just a verbal agreement. As long as the Xiao family and Lady Wan of Bright Deportment denied it, Worthy Consort Xu would be accused of framing out of thin air.

Yu Wan recalled the way Lady Wan of Bright Deportment looked at Xiao Zhenting. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Lady Wan of Bright Deportment still had improper thoughts about her father-in-law.

Yu Wan thought about Old Cui’s words in her heart again. “You mean Grand Marshal Xiao suddenly betrayed her halfway through the marriage discussion?”

Old Cui muttered, “That’s what Worthy Consort Xu said.”

What good words could that woman say! Yu Wan did not believe that Xiao Zhenting was such a heartless person who played with people’s emotions. It was most likely because Old Mrs. Xiao was stubborn. As for Lady Wan of Bright Deportment, she should have fallen for Xiao Zhenting and had not changed her mind until now.

If that was really the case, Lady Wan of Bright Deportment would have a lot of resentment towards Shangguan Yan and her son.

When Yan Jiuchao was poisoned, Shangguan Yan and Xiao Zhenting had yet to get married. If Yan Jiuchao died, Shangguan Yan would lose her husband and son. In her grief, she might follow suit. This was a way to attack Shangguan Yan.

However, at that time, Lady Wan of Bright Deportment had already entered the palace. Even if Xiao Zhenting did not marry Shangguan Yan, it was impossible for her to be with Xiao Zhenting. Then why did she do this? Or was she thinking too much? Lady Wan of Bright Deportment didn’t do it at all?

Yu Wan felt that it was necessary for her to test the depths of this Lady of Bright Deportment. It was best if she didn’t do it. If she did it… they might be able to get the antidote from her.

On the one hand, Yu Wan hoped to obtain the antidote. On the other hand, Yu Wan also hoped that Master Xiao Wu’s sister was innocent. This contradictory feeling filled Yu Wan for the entire afternoon until Zi Su reported that Yan Jiuchao woke up.

Yu Wan went to the upper room. Yan Jiuchao sat at the head of the bed. His face was pale, and his black hair hung loosely on his shoulders. He was a peerless, sickly beauty.

For a moment, Yu Wan thought pervertedly that she really wanted to hide such a husband every day and never let anyone see him again.

“What are you looking at?” Yan Jiuchao asked coldly. However, because he was weak, his tone was not threatening. Instead, it seemed to emit a trace of tsundere.

Yu Wan cherished him even more. She walked over and touched his forehead with hers. Yan Jiuchao quickly leaned back, but Yu Wan grabbed the back of his head. Their foreheads were tightly pressed against each other.

Yan Jiuchao was so angry that his eyes widened and his chest heaved. “Yu Ah Wan!”

“I’m here,” Yu Wan said gently and left his forehead. “Much better. It’s not hot anymore.”
