Chapter 227 Sure enough, it’s here
Upon hearing this, An Qingqian pondered for a moment and quickly thought of someone.
"Boyun, tell Qinggu to pay attention and see if there is any more seriously injured person in Prince Yong's Mansion from last night to today."
"Miss, do you mean that Liu Yiyi was taken away by the people from Prince Yong's Mansion?" Bo Yun widened his eyes and immediately understood what An Qingqian meant.
"This is the most likely possibility. The only person Liu Yiyi is familiar with and can rely on in the capital, besides Xue Wanxian, is Prince Yong. Xue Wanxian is disappointed in her now, so the only one who can take her away is Prince Yong."
"Miss, could there be another possibility? Doctor Qi, who has a relationship with Liu Yiyi, may also take Liu Yiyi away." Yingyi suddenly thought of another person.
"No, Doctor Qi is just an ordinary doctor. He doesn't have the ability to take someone out of Lin'an Marquis' Mansion without being noticed."
"It seems that the person who took Liu Yiyi away is really from Prince Yong's Mansion." After hearing An Qingqian's analysis, both of them understood.
"Miss, what should we do? We can't just let Liu Yiyi get away with it like this, right?" Yingyi frowned and looked at An Qingqian.
"Not yet. Wait for the exact result. If the person is in Prince Yong's Mansion, find a way to pass this message to Xue Wanxian. We won't move for now and see what he will do after he knows about this."
"Yes, miss, I understand." Bo Yun nodded.
After arranging all this, An Qingqian closed her eyes slightly. After being busy all morning and going out of the city, she was inevitably a little tired.
"Miss, would you like the meal to be served?" Yingyi noticed An Qingqian's actions and spoke with concern.
"No need, Yingyi, go and bring the medicine over. I haven't taken today's medicine yet." An Qingqian waved her hand.
She had no appetite for the time being, but she still had to take the medicine in order to recover sooner.
Yingyi wanted to give her some advice, but seeing that An Qingqian closed her eyes again, she could only go downstairs to find Zeng Ren to get medicine.
In fact, An Qingqian has been taking medicine continuously these days, and with the internal energy that Shi Qiuwu has transferred to her, An Qingqian's injuries have almost healed.
However, because of An Zhenyuan's departure today, An Qingqian was in a bad mood, so she looked the same as when she was injured in the past.
In the afternoon, Yingyi stood outside, hesitating for a long time, and finally decided to come in and wake up An Qingqian.
"Miss, ma'am?"
"What's wrong?" An Qingqian opened her eyes a little confused and looked at Yingyi puzzledly.
"Miss, you should get up and wash up. Today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. There is a palace banquet in the palace. It's almost time. You still need to dress up."
"Palace Banquet?" Hearing these two words, An Qingqian suddenly woke up. She sat up and gently exhaled.
"Yingyi, help me change my clothes."
As An Qingqian was about to get out of bed, she suddenly caught sight of the wound on her fingertips and her expression froze.
"Yingyi, that's not necessary. Ask someone to go to the palace and tell them that I caught a cold this morning and now I have a fever. I'm lying in bed and can't get up. I can't go to the palace."
"Yes." Yingyi stopped and felt a little confused. When she saw An Qingqian's eyes fall on her fingertips, she immediately understood everything.
Because the poison was so strong, even though only five days had passed, there was still a black spot on each of An Qingqian's five fingertips.
Her fingers were very white, making the black spots stand out particularly clearly.
As long as you pay a little attention, you will immediately notice something unusual.
Prince Dingyuan will definitely attend this palace banquet. If he observes carefully, he will definitely find that there is something wrong with An Qingqian's fingers. Therefore, An Qingqian must not attend today's palace banquet.
"Wait, Yingyi, go to Uncle Zeng's yard and tell him you want to get what I want."
Yingyi brought the things back quickly.
An Qingqian put on her clothes and walked to the table.
"Yingyi, come here." After taking a look at the box in Yingyi's hand, An Qingqian waved at Yingyi.
Then he whispered two words in Yingyi's ear, and Yingyi's eyes lit up. She then concealed her excitement and nodded.
"Don't worry, young lady. I will definitely fulfill my mission."
As soon as Boyun walked in, he ran into Yingyi walking outside excitedly.
She placed the tray on the table and looked at An Qingqian in confusion, "Miss, what is Yingyi doing?"
"Wait until tomorrow and you'll know."
"Oh, I almost forgot. Boyun, tell someone to keep an eye on the situation outside. If you find someone coming towards the general's mansion, tell me as soon as possible."
"Ah? Miss, do you mean someone will come to see you?" Bo Yun was very puzzled. There was a palace banquet today, who would come to see the lady?
"No need to ask any more questions, just ask someone to watch it."
An Qingqian just curled her lips and smiled, without explaining too much.
Prince Dingyuan has been investigating for several days but has found nothing. At this palace banquet, he will definitely pay attention to the situations of all suspicious persons.
An Qingqian was not sure whether the imperial physician would come when she knew that she could not attend the palace banquet due to illness.
However, everything still needs to be prepared in advance.
However, looking at the wound on her fingertips, An Qingqian frowned slightly. How could she hide this wound?
An Qingqian was just thinking about it when suddenly a maid came to report.
"Miss, there is a man outside who claims to be Tianshu. He said he has something to give to you."
"Tell him to wait in the side hall." When An Qingqian heard that it was Tianshu, she knew that Shi Qiuwu must have something to talk to her about.
"My subordinate greets Miss An." Tianshu bowed politely when he saw An Qingqian.
"No need to be so polite." An Qingqian sat down.
"Miss An, this is the ointment our prince gave you. It is said to be a skin-beautifying ointment that can remove scars and restore wounds to normal." Tianshu took out a small box the size of a palm from his arms and handed it to Boyun.
Bo Yun took it and put it in front of An Qingqian.
An Qingqian opened the box and found a small jar inside with a note next to it.
It said that if An Qingqian applied the ointment on her finger, the wound on her fingertip would disappear in just one hour.
An Qingqian couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips. This thing came at the right time.
"Thank you, Prince, for me. I'll accept the gift."
"Then I'll take my leave." After delivering the things, Tianshu left quickly.
Knowing that Tianshu would go into the palace with Shi Qiuwu tonight, An Qingqian didn't say anything else.
In the evening, just after An Qingqian finished dinner, she heard someone coming outside to report that the imperial physician had come to treat An Qingqian.
An Qingqian and Yingyi looked at each other, and the imperial physician had indeed arrived.
An Qingqian quickly took off her outer clothes and lay down.
Yingyi and Boyun also quickly changed their expressions to worried ones.
Bo Yun went forward and brought in Doctor Zhao.
Knowing that the emperor valued An Zhenyuan, Imperial Physician Zhao naturally did not dare to look down on An Zhenyuan's daughter.
