"You really don't know Xi Xue?"

Yun Ruo Lu pretended not to believe him and asked. The more Yuchi Yan tried to hide it, the more she felt that there was something fishy about it.

"Haha, the Yuchi Dynasty has a population of a million. How could I possibly recognize everyone?" Sister-in-law, how have you been recently with fifth brother? Are you alright? "

Yuchi Yanghong began to change the topic. Yun Ruo shook her head and purposely revealed the news, "The prince is very angry about the theft today. We gathered everyone in the mansion to search around."

"It must be something very important, otherwise fifth brother wouldn't care so much." Yuchi Yan replied casually.

"Hm!" Seventh Prince, you and the Prince have such a good relationship, can you guess what's missing? "

Yuchi Yann was just about to say, "It can't be that painting, right?" However, the words were stuck in her throat as she sighed in her heart. She was almost dragged into the ditch.

Yun Ruo saw the strange expression on Yuchi Yan's face and knew that he must have guessed what it was, but she refused to say it.

"Sister-in-law, you look a bit weird today, right?"

Yuchi Yanghong smiled evilly and asked Yun Ruo Lu.

"Oh? "Is that so?" Yun Ruo Man smiled.

"Of course! Don't you like to worry about the Prince's Mansion? Why is there so much I want to know today? "

Yuchi Yanghong looked at her, trying to hide the uneasiness in his heart, but his eyes were focused on her, as though he wanted to know more about her.

"Since you don't know, then I won't say anything else. However, do not mention the matter of me looking for you and your manor being stolen in front of the prince today. "

No one could have imagined that Yuchi Chen was so suspicious. It would not be easy to fool Yuchi Chen.

"Of course I won't let Fifth Bro know about this. However, Sister-in-law, if that woman called Xi Xue is related to Fifth Bro, little brother should advise Sister-in-law not to continue investigating."

Before Yun Ruo Lu left, Yuchi Yan had kindly reminded her, and his warning confirmed her thoughts. The woman in the portrait must be Xi Xue! The woman that Yuchi Chen had hidden deep in his heart. What sort of charm did this woman have? It was enough to make Yuchi Chen unable to forget her.

She already understood a little why the Prime Minister was willing to help the Yun Family despite Yuchi Chen being a mute.

Her father must have known that she looked the same as this girl called Xi Xue, and that Xi Xue and the Fifth Prince were inextricably linked. This was something she did not know, and the memory of the owner of her body did not include Xi Xue.

However, what she did not understand was that if Yuchi Chen really loved Xi Xue, why would she hate her to the bone? Where was that person called Xi Xue now?

Was it only because she looked so much like that girl that he was able to pass on his love for other women to her? For some reason, when Yun Ruo Lu thought of this, she felt a bit angry. However, it was just for a brief moment. She didn't even care about it, it was as though all she could think about was Xi Xue!

Returning to the Plum Garden with unanswered questions, Jinsi had been waiting in her room for her to come back.

"Jin'er, what's wrong? What happened? "

When Yun Ruo Lu came back and saw the anxious look on Jin Se's face, she couldn't help but ask.

"Esteemed Empress, it's Jin'er's fault. Jin'er didn't follow your instructions and take good care of Xi Feng."

As Jinsi spoke, tears were already starting to flow out of his eyes. Seeing her like that, Yun Ruo Lu became even more uneasy and asked anxiously: "What happened? What's wrong with Yu Feng? "

Niangniang, Jin`er will go and give the breezy ointment. Which one... "He was actually poisoned!

Jin Se knelt down on the ground. Her red cheeks were already wet from her tears.

Yun Ruo Lu helped Jin Se up and comforted her, "Jin'er, don't cry, I'm not blaming you. Take me to see Xi Feng first."

Xi Feng had been poisoned. Someone must have been planning to harm her. Otherwise, why would it be at this time?

Yun Ruo came to Yu Feng's room and checked his body. She saw that his face was black, his lips were purple, and his body was slightly swollen. He looked like he was deeply poisoned.

"Jin, did you notice anyone touching your medicine when you were frying it?"

Although Caution Wind was deeply poisoned, he was not completely dead for a while. If he could find the antidote, he should still be able to treat it.

"No, ever since we were drugged last time, I've always been very careful when I go to the kitchen. This time, no one has touched it."

Jin Se promised. After thinking for a moment, he continued, "Empress, could it be that the doctor prescribed the wrong medicine? Or was the prescription given by the doctor poisonous in the first place? "

"Jin, are the dregs of your medicine still around?"

It wasn't impossible for Jinsi to say that, but they would know if it was true or not after checking it.

"It's still in the kitchen. Empress, I'll go get it for you."

"No need, I'll go to the kitchen with you and have a look."

After changing out of her men's clothing, Yun Ruo Lu went to the kitchen with Jinsi to have a look, but the surprising result was that there was poison in the dregs!

"Ah …" Esteemed Empress, this mouse was poisoned even after eating the dregs. Could it be that the doctor really poisoned Supreme Wind? "

Upon seeing the poisoned rat, Jinsi said in disbelief.

"That might not be the case. What do you think that is?"

Yun Ruo Lu pointed at the roof and saw a large red spider spitting poison into a medicine bowl.

"Red spider!" This spider is highly toxic! Why would he appear here? "

Jin Se looked at the fist-sized red spider in astonishment. She felt her hair stand on end. Just looking at it made her feel afraid.

"Because of this!"

Yun Ruo Lu found an unburnt straw from the side of the furnace, "This hay looks no different from ordinary grass, but it smells extremely fragrant, and after being lit it, the fragrance will become even stronger. And it's the key to attracting the Red Poison Spider! "

As Yun Ruo Lu spoke, she walked to the side and lit up the unburnt hay. A cloud of fragrant white smoke drifted out, and the red spider smelled it, and immediately crawled towards where the hay was burning.

"Too terrifying!" It seemed that someone wanted to kill Yu Feng! But, when I was making medicine, why didn't I smell this hay? " Jin Se asked puzzledly.

"That's because when you were brewing the medicine, the bitter taste of the medicine covered the smell of the hay, and the Red Poison Spider was very sensitive to the smell of the hay. As long as it smelled even a little bit, it would still rush over at a distance of a thousand meters."

Yun Ruo Man patiently explained that she knew all this because she had been poisoned before when she was training in the mountains. Afterwards, she began to study these kinds of books to see if there was anything that could be mixed or ignited.

"Who in the world wants to harm Caution? Yu Feng is only a servant girl, he can't possibly offend anyone. "

"The most likely person is only one!"

Yun Ruo Lu knew this in her heart, but she did not say that person's name. It seemed that she did not guess wrong. The things that Xi Feng knew were definitely more than what she imagined.

"Empress, think of a way to save Xi Feng. She's so pitiful."

Seeing that Xi Feng's body was as thin as a stick, not only did he have to endure the torment from the illness, but he would also be framed and want to kill him, Jin Se's sympathy started to flood out again.

"Of course I'll think of a way to save her. We'll catch that red spider first. If we have to be vigilant, then we'll have to rely on it!"

Yun Ruo Lu observed the red spider for a while. She knew that even though the spider was highly toxic, its poison wasn't the worst kind. Otherwise, Xi Feng would have died a long time ago.

"Ah--? You want to catch it? "So disgusting!"

Jinsi revealed a look of disgust and fear, as if she was very afraid of being bitten by that guy.

"Jin'er, don't worry." This spider has already spat out all of its poison, and it is both a poison and a medicine.

As Yun Ruo Lu said this, she picked up a bamboo tube and pushed the spider into the bamboo tube. Then she continued, "This time, I am lucky. Otherwise, even the deities would not be able to save Yu Feng. "

Hearing Yun Ruo's words, Jinsi was so shocked that she patted her chest and sighed, "I was really careless. Every time I made a mistake!"

"Jin'er, it's not your fault. Those scoundrels were plotting something, it's impossible to guard against them!"

Yun Ruo Lu did not have any intentions of blaming Jin Se, but according to the current situation, she had no choice but to retaliate!

Returning to the room, Yun Ruo Lu placed the Red Poison Spider on Yu Feng's arm, letting it suck out the poison from his body.

After that, he lit up the remaining licorice and lured the Red Poison Spider out to vomit poison. Then, he gave the spider that had vomited all the poison over to Supreme Wind for him to use. After repeating this twice, most of the poison in Yu Feng's body was sucked out. The remaining poison could be treated with medicine.

Jin Se was dumbstruck as she watched Yun Ruo Lu finish all of this. She and Yun Ruo Lu had grown up together, but she had never realized that her young mistress had this kind of ability.

"Jin'er, I'll write a prescription for you in a bit. Just follow this formula tomorrow and buy it back. After that, you can just give it to Xi Feng."

In order to get rid of the poison, Yun Ruo Lu was already very tired. It was the first time in a long time that she had done so much in a single day.

"Empress, what do we do with this spider?"

Jinsi seemed to be very afraid of the spider, and hid far away from it. Even when she looked at it, her teeth couldn't help but to tremble.

"I'll keep it for now, it will still be useful in the future!"

Although this Red Poison Spider's origins were unknown, it still gave her a lot of inspiration. Although she was weak now, she didn't need to rely on human strength to become strong, and the strength of animals were even more astonishing.

Therefore, Yun Ruo Lu secretly decided in her heart that she would raise some poisonous creatures for her research. If she succeeded, they would become her best weapons!

It was just that she was scared of him even if he had to help her raise her.
