Marry a Duke

Chapter 296: Panic

The list of people to whom the princess was fed Akaishin powder has been released.

Although the list is incomplete, it is known that it is part of the court.

This list was sent directly to the emperor, and no one else knew about it except the person who handled it.

Wei Xuan met Hu Youyu.

As the commander of the imperial guards, Hu Youyu is very close to Emperor Tianyuan.

Emperor Tianyuan has not attended court for several days.

"This duke hasn't been to the palace for a few days. Is the rumor in the palace true?"

Hu Youyu rubbed his eyebrows. What had happened in recent days was far beyond his imagination.

He would never dream of doing so.

"Duke, you don't know who is the first on the eldest princess's list." Hu Youyu also saw it by accident. He was so shocked that he almost didn't know what to do.

How dare the princess do that?

Wei Xuan guessed it from Hu Youyu's expression.

"But Your Majesty."

Hu Youyu looked at him with great admiration, and he didn't expect that Wei Xuan guessed it right.

"Tell me, besides you, who else would dare to guess like that?"

He clicked his tongue twice, raised his glass and drank a full glass of water.

"Who would have thought that the princess would dare to put red stone powder in the emperor's food? Recently, there has been bloodshed in the palace. The eunuchs and maids in charge of the emperor's meals and the entire imperial kitchen have all been replaced."

The emperor was furious, but he only killed those people in the palace who were related to his food.

He didn't think of killing the culprit, the eldest princess.

Over the years, the emperor has indeed been controlled by the eldest princess.

Even though he has been on the throne for many years, he is still the Emperor Tianyuan who needs to rely on the eldest princess to keep his throne.

Wei Xuan's eyes darkened slightly.

There was a cold look in his eyes.

What is the need for an emperor who cannot distinguish right from wrong to exist?

"Master Xuan, the emperor has sent the Imperial Guards to monitor the eldest princess' every move and not allow her to leave the palace. Now the Imperial Guards are looking for the Red Stone Powder, but the eldest princess is fearless and has not revealed any information about the Red Stone Powder."

Hu Youyu had a personal relationship with Wei Xuan for a long time.

The reason why Hu Youyu was able to become the commander of the imperial guards was largely because of Wei Xuan.

But, they don't contact each other much on weekdays.

Few people in the court knew that they had this relationship.

"Master Xuan, the Emperor has urgently summoned the doctors from the Imperial Hospital to find a way to cure the addiction to Red Stone Powder, but the doctors have no idea. There is no cure for the addiction to Red Stone Powder."

There was also worry in Hu Youyu's eyes.

The emperor has been poisoned by the Red Stone Powder, so he will have to take it forever from now on.

Once the medication is taken for a long time, the required dosage will also increase.

The body will gradually decay.

The emperor is still young, but he won’t live too old.

The eldest princess was truly heartless and ruthless. She could be so cruel to her own brother whom she had supported so well.

"I'm afraid that the emperor will soon think of Hua Mo."

At that time, Hua Mo was able to cure the poison in Wei Xuan.

Now, maybe he can also detoxify the red stone powder.

"Hua Mo has been away from the capital for a long time." Wei Xuan said calmly, "If the emperor orders the imperial guards to look for Hua Mo, you should reply like this."

"Yes, Master Xuan." Hu Youyu agreed.

He didn't speculate whether Hua Mo was still in the capital.

Mr. Xuan said he is not in the capital, so he is not in the capital.

Wei Xuan has been busy lately, and Fu Ran is also very busy, but she decided to delay the opening of the shop.

Recently, because of the incident of Akashi Powder, the whole city is in a panic. She is also very scared. Once Akashi Powder is taken, it will be addictive and difficult to stop for a lifetime.

This is poison. Once you get addicted to this kind of drug, your life is over.

I didn't expect that there are such things in this world.

She opened the shop to entertain people, and there were so many customers, and the crowds were diverse. The eldest princess was extremely dissatisfied with her, so she just put some red stone powder in her shop to make the customers addicted.

It would be impossible for her to continue running a shop in the capital in the future.

Once it explodes, all the diners will eat it alive.

She couldn't afford the risk.

Money can be earned later.

She couldn't put herself in danger.

Everything purchased into the mansion recently has been carefully inspected, and she has ordered everyone in the mansion to be re-investigated.

If you find any problem, send it out immediately.

She would not let anyone in the mansion come to any harm.

Her Wuyou is still so young, and she can't be involved in anything.

Wei Xuan has been going out early and coming back late recently, and he is indeed very busy.

She hoped that Wei Xuan could resolve this matter as soon as possible so that everyone could continue to live their lives in peace, instead of worrying every day that the sky would fall down at the next moment.

She ordered the kitchen to prepare ginseng chicken soup.

He was still recuperating from his injuries, but because his body was stronger than others, he looked like nothing had happened.

If it were a weaker one, he would have to stay at home and not go out.

"I asked the kitchen to stew ginseng chicken soup. Everyone is here. Mother, sister-in-law and Wei Lin have all sent it over. This bowl is for you." She brought it over personally and placed it in front of him.

"The temperature is just right, drink it quickly."

Wei Xuan looked at Fu Ran, his eyes fell on the chicken soup in front of him: "Have you eaten?"

Fu Ran nodded.

She would not let herself be wronged in such matters.

It's not like the Duke's Mansion can't afford the food, so why should she be so harsh on herself and only let those around her eat and use the best things.

Only by taking good care of herself can she help those around her do more things.

"I've eaten. I've been busy lately, so I need some replenishment." She said cheerfully.

Wei Xuan said nothing more and drank the ginseng chicken soup.

"You haven't been out these days?"

"No, I never go out unless I have something to do. The chicken I bought today has been tested. The ginseng was previously stored in the mansion. After it was cooked, it was also tested. There is nothing wrong. It's just that..." She sighed, "It's not a good idea to keep things like this. Everyone is panicking. Sooner or later, chaos will break out."

Wei Xuan pulled her onto his lap.

"It's going to get chaotic sooner or later, so you have to be prepared."

Fu Ran was shocked, but did not ask any more questions.

He would never hide anything from her.

If she couldn't tell him, wouldn't it be embarrassing for him if she asked him?

"You've been hurt many times recently, so you must be extremely careful and don't let yourself be stabbed in the back by villains again. How can you heal from all the injuries?"

She really felt sorry for him.

Wei Xuan held her little hand and squeezed it gently.

"When you first came out of the Princess's mansion, did the Princess ask you to put drugs in my food?" he asked.

Fu Ran shook his head.

"I married into the family in a hurry. Later, the princess ordered me to frame you. She also mentioned the drugging. I just responded perfunctorily. It was because of her drugging that we were harmed."

No further words were said.

She was filled with hatred, so how could she possibly help the eldest princess to drug her?

To harm Wei Xuan would be to harm herself.

"At that time, the princess already had a small amount of Red Stone Powder in her hands. If you really obeyed her, perhaps you and I would be deeply poisoned by the Red Stone Powder today."

Fu Ran was shocked and his face turned pale.

If you really take that stuff, I'm afraid you'll end up dying in pain.

"The princess wouldn't dare to be so blatant. She hid it very well before. If you hadn't killed all the capable secret guards around her, she wouldn't have revealed her last weapon."

The Fire Hunters are the eldest princess’ trump card.
