“Something bad has happened!”

The tranquility of the Splendid Courtyard was broken by a panicked voice.!!

Yuan Yuwan smiled and put down her chopsticks unhurriedly. She turned to look at You Bai. “Go and see what happened.”

Soon, You Bai returned with a dark expression.

“What’s wrong?” Yuan Yuwan asked.

You Bai glared at Xiao Qirui and said reluctantly, “It’s Concubine Feng’s maidservant. She said that Concubine Feng is seriously ill.”

You Bai had seen her strolling in the courtyard in the day, but she suddenly fell sick at night. Who would believe her?

Xiao Qirui frowned and opened his mouth.

“Young General, go ahead. Thank you for your help these few days. I’ll do the rest myself.” Without waiting for him to speak, Yuan Yuwan took the lead and instructed You Bai, “Go and get the butler to invite a doctor to the Magnolia

Courtyard. ”

Meeting her cold eyes, Xiao Qirui’s heart choked. He said with difficulty,

“Alright.”

Seeing Xiao Qirui leave without looking back, You Bai panicked. “Miss, why did you push Young Master out again? You clearly know…”

“Stop talking and go quickly.” Yuan Yuwan picked up her chopsticks and continued eating without looking up.

You Bai could not hide anything, so Yuan Yuwan did not let her know too much, including the fact that she and Xiao Qirui had never consummated their marriage.

Xiao Qirui followed Lu Liu into the Magnolia Courtyard.

The courtyard was quiet. Only a little light shone from the main room, indicating that this courtyard was occupied.

After a few gossipy maidservants were sold by Xiao Qirui, he originally wanted the butler to arrange for a few more maidservants in her courtyard.

However, Feng Manman said that she was not used to being served by too many people, so apart from Lu Liu, there were only maidservants in charge of cleaning this courtyard.

The maidservant was guarding the bed nervously. When she saw Xiao Qirui enter, she quickly bowed and left.

Feng Manman lay on the bed with her eyes closed. Xiao Qirui frowned. “What happened? How did this happen?”

Lu Liu choked and said, “Aunt has been saying that her chest feels tight recently. I said that I went to beg Young Madam to hire a doctor, but she said that I couldn’t trouble Young Madam… I didn’t expect her to suddenly faint just now. I couldn’t wake her up no matter how hard I tried.”

Xiao Qirui said coldly, “Then why didn’t you tell me before?”

Lu Liu wiped her tears. “Concubine Feng said that it wasn’t easy for you to ease your relationship with Young Madam, so she didn’t let me look for you.”

Xiao Qirui was stunned. Others might not know, but he and Yuan Yuwan knew very well that the two of them had closed the door after dinner these few days. They were just tidying up the accounts in the room.

Lu Liu carefully glanced at the person on the bed. She gritted her teeth and suddenly knelt down. “Eldest Young Master, I shouldn’t have said that.”

As she spoke, she kowtowed a few times and said fearlessly, “Madam has really suffered too much. She could have been someone else’s first wife.. ”

Lu Liu’s words were like a sharp knife stabbing into Xiao Qirui’s heart. Thinking about how he had neglected Feng Manman recently, he felt deeply guilty.

He waved his hand tiredly. “Go and see if the doctor is here.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the butler came in with a doctor.

You Bai followed behind the two of them. She glared at Lu Liu angrily. She wanted to see if this Feng fellow was really sick or faking it.

You Bai was certain that Feng Manman was pretending to be sick to snatch her young master away from her young mistress. However, the doctor’s words after taking her pulse stunned her.

“This madam has been poisoned.”

“What?” Lu Liu exclaimed. “My madam doesn’t fight for anything. Who is so heartless to harm her?”

“Eldest Young Master, you have to stand up for her.”

Feng Manman was Xiao Qirui’s concubine. Apart from Yuan Yuwan, who else could she have a dispute with?

She was just short of naming Yuan Yuwan as the culprit.

The atmosphere in the room froze for a moment. The doctor was so nervous that he did not dare to breathe loudly.

As a doctor, what he was most afraid of was being implicated in such dirty matters. If anything went wrong, he might be killed to silence him.

You Bai was even angrier. If they hadn’t invited this doctor, she would have suspected that she had been bribed by Feng Manman in advance.

Xiao Qirui looked at the person on the bed with a complicated expression. He ignored Lu Liu and frowned at the doctor. “Do you have a way to detoxify the poison?”

“This… I have to know what poison it is first.” The doctor wiped his sweat. “However, from this madam’s pulse, she should be poisoned by some kind of slow- acting poison..”
