Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 549

Hardly had Yun Shang's voice faded away, she saw a maid rushing over in a hurry. The maid seemed to be somewhat panicked. She was stumbled on the way into the palace and fell heavily to the ground.

When the empress heard Yun Shang's words, she was about to retort. But she saw the maid's inelegant look in her eyes and frowned as she glanced at Xia Huanyu. "Piao Xu, how could you be so unruly? What happened and why are you in such a hurry?"

It turned out to be a maid in the Wei Yang Palace. Yun Shang turned her eyes to the maid called Piao Xu, and saw her get up from the ground in a hurry. She bowed to the people in the palace and said, "Your Majesty, I used the medicine that Lady Rui sent into the palace. After taking the medicine, the little prince began to get hot all over and had a headache."

Hearing this, the empress stood up abruptly and looked at Yun Shang, her body trembling with rage. "Lady Rui! How can you be so vicious? I thought that you found the reason why Yunxi was poisoned by poison in a short time, and thought you're a good doctor, so I let you give the medicine to cure Yunxi. I didn't expect you to want to hurt him. He is just a three-year-old kid. Why did you do this to him? "

"Medicine? What kind of medicine? " Frowning, Yun Shang looked at the empress and the maids with the name Piao Xu and fell silent. She knew what was going on right now. When the empress asked her to take some drugs which were harmless to the body into the palace, she sent them in. When she were chatting in the Xiang Zhu Palace, other concubines asked her why she went to the Wei Yang Palace every day. Yun Shang also found an excuse. She said that the little prince was in poor health and the empress asked her to prepare some medicine for him to recuperate.

She thought it over carefully and wondered why the maid had so many loopholes. If the empress and Lady Shu had arranged it together, she wouldn't have done that. However, it was just an opener. The real threat was the Hanshi Drug in the little prince's body.

Yun Shang let her eyes settle upon the empress. She sneered coldly. She didn't expect the empress to use her only grandson to be a bait in order to get rid of Prince Rui. During these days, almost everyone in the palace had known that the empress liked and spoiled Xia Yunxi so much. Thus, no one would have thought that the real murderer would be the empress.

Lady Shu meditated for a moment and said, "I have heard from other concubines that Lady Rui cares a lot about the tille prince's health. Except the Xiang Zhu Palace, she often goes to the Wei Yang Palace recently. Lady Rui said that the little prince is in poor health. The empress asked her to prepare some medicine for the little prince." After a pause, she continued, "but it's not a time to think about it. The empress has to call the imperial physician over as soon as possible. Since the imperial physicians are all here, we don't have to go to the imperial hospital to call for help."

The empress sneered and turned her head. "Your Majesty, Lady Rui has sent her drugs to the palace and helped Yunxi take the medicine. Please take her to the prison and put a trial in a couple of days."

Xia Huanyu touched the jade ring on his thumb and looked at Yun Shang. After a while, he nodded his head and said, "take her away. Liu Wenan will inform Prince Rui about this."
