I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

340 Poison Calamity

The news of Marquis Beining’s ministry’s incident quickly spread throughout the entire North Mountain City.

Yu Niang, her eldest son, and her eldest daughter-in-law, who had always been living glamorous lives, died at the same time overnight. There were also a group of maidservants who had been gotten rid of as well.

This wasn’t the end. Because of Yu Niang, the Yu family, which had reigned supreme in North Mountain City all these years, lost its pillar of support and collapsed.

Overnight, the Yu family was ransacked and imprisoned. Not a single person in the entire family was spared.

!!

The reason for all of this was none other than that Madam Yu colluded with her maiden family to harm the prince for her own selfish desires. However, the fourth prince was benevolent and magnanimous, so on account of Marquis Beining’s ministry’s many generations of military exploits and because Marquis Beining had no idea about this scheme, he only punished Marquis Beining and didn’t pursue responsibility with anyone else.

Those families who could survive in Cloud Mountain City weren’t fools.

What had happened that afternoon had already made everyone present wish they hadn’t seen it. Now that they weren’t implicated, how could anyone be stupid enough to cause trouble?

Everyone praised the fourth prince’s kindness and gentleness to brush over this matter.

Lin Suisui’s medical center was set to open on March 1st.

Since the medical center would open in half a month, she got busy.

Spring came relatively late in the north. In March, only a little green could be seen on the branches and treetops. As Lin Suisui looked at Little White, who had rolled in from outside and was rushing towards her, she reached out helplessly and rubbed its huge head. “You’ve already grown up, so I can’t carry you anymore.”

Although she said that, Lin Suisui still squatted down and hugged Little White.

Little White whimpered in satisfaction and didn’t run around anymore. Instead, it lay quietly under the porch and basked in the sun.

Although it wasn’t completely an adult yet, its size wasn’t much different from that of an adult tiger. Now that it was bigger, it became even more active. Every day, when it had nothing to do, it would run around the residence.

In order to make it easier to run around, Lu Ze set up a place in the backyard for it to practice hunting. Sometimes, when Lu Ze was free, he would bring Little White to the surrounding forest and let it adapt to the wilderness.

Little White was no longer as weak as it used to be when it was young. Now, it was as strong as a calf.

The only thing that had not changed was that it still liked to cling to Lin Suisui. Other than chasing chickens and rabbits in the backyard, it liked to lie beside Lin Suisui for long periods at a time.

Initially, when Little White came over, those women who had never seen Little White before were terrified. However, after getting used to it, some bold ones even came over to play with Little White.

Lin Suisui was sorting out medical books when Lu Ze got her a batch of things that looked out of print. Many of the prescriptions were things she had never seen before.

Therefore, whenever she was free, she would take out these books and flip through them. With something to keep her preoccupied, time flew by.

It was unknown what method Lu Ze and the others had used previously, but after the incident at Marquis Beining’s ministry, the fourth prince kept a low profile. There had been no news of him for more than half a month.

Lin Suisui was also happy that things were peaceful, so she didn’t intend to ask about this matter.

However, her plan was disrupted after she woke up from her afternoon nap.

“The old lady is very sick. She invited a few doctors, but they couldn’t discover anything.” Zhou Ningqian, who had come to visit, couldn’t hide her anxiety. “Actually, my husband told me not to interfere in this matter.

I visited Old Madam yesterday as a formality, but I realized that something was wrong with Old Madam’s condition. She didn’t seem to be sick, but poisoned.”

Zhou Ningqian deliberated over her words carefully as she told Lin Suisui the purpose of her trip. “I wasn’t sure, so I went back and told my husband about this.

After thinking about it, my husband felt that something was wrong, so he asked me to go out today and inform you with the pretext of getting medicine.”

Zhou Ningqian thought of the current situation in the residence. Actually, if possible, she didn’t want to trouble Lin Suisui. However, seeing how cautious her husband was, she felt that it wasn’t good to delay this matter, so she made the trip.

“When did these symptoms appear?” Lin Suisui knew that if not for the fact that something was fishy, Zhou Ningqian wouldn’t have come to look for her at this time. Therefore, her expression turned serious.

“Ever since the last birthday banquet, the old madam hasn’t been in good spirits. Later on, after Yu Niang and the others were punished, the old madam was frightened and fell ill. Later on, she took medicine and her symptoms improved a little, but she’s still quite sickly.

In order to make the Old Madam happy, the Marquis arranged for someone to invite the opera troupe that the Old Madam liked to sing for her.

At first, Old Madam was happy, but for some reason, her health deteriorated day by day. Now, she can barely stay awake for two to four hours a day.”

Zhou Ningqian didn’t dare to hide anything and told Lin Suisui everything that had happened over the past few days in a low voice, “The reason I felt that she was poisoned was that when I went over that day, I happened to see the old lady drinking medicine.

Not only is the filth that the old lady vomited extremely smelly, but it’s also black…”

Perhaps because she was pregnant, Zhou Ningqian couldn’t help but feel like vomiting at the mention of this. After a while, she calmed down and looked at Lin Suisui as she said, “I don’t know if my guess is right, but if she was really poisoned, who would poison the old lady in our residence?

She has been staying in Marquis Beining’s ministry all year round. Could it be that someone took revenge on her?”

“Are you talking about the troupe that performed the ‘Seven Fairies’ at the old lady’s birthday banquet?” Lin Suisui immediately caught the main point and raised her eyebrows as she asked Zhou Ningqian in detail.

“Yes, it’s them.” Zhou Ningqian nodded. There was even a hint of regret on her face. “After that, they came to our residence to perform for three consecutive days. Because I wanted to stabilize the baby, I didn’t go over to join in the fun. Fifth Sister felt it was a pity that I didn’t see the performance.”
