Red Wolf heard her cry and rushed inside, only to see His Highness lying unconscious over Mo Qian’er’s cold body.
Red Wolf knew something was wrong when he saw the crown prince’s eyes. He rushed over and shook Lu Fenying. “Your Highness, Your Highness! Wake up!”
Lu Fenying didn’t respond. Red Wolf hurriedly picked him up, only to find that he was cold all over.
He carried him to the study next door, where a fire had been lit and it was much warmer.
Su Muwei wanted to see how Lu Fenying was doing, but she had more important things to do.
Su Muwei had the maid help her sit on the bed. She said regretfully, “Miss Qian’er, I’m sorry…”
She raised her head tearfully. “Leave. I want to sit here for a while…”
“My lady, it’s cold in here. I’m afraid your body can’t take it, or…”
“Listen to me. Miss Qian’er saved me. I need to keep her company,” Su Muwei said firmly.
The maid had no choice but to leave with the guards.
After they closed the door, Su Muwei put down her handkerchief and looked at the person on the bed. “You’re gone now; you can’t blame me. This was all arranged by Princess Zi, Gu Bailu… However, I still have to thank you for helping me out. From now on, His Highness will only have me.”
As she spoke, Su Muwei took out a bag of powder from her sleeve and poured the powder into Mo Qian’er’s mouth.
In order not to be discovered, she endured the pain as she poured a cup of water into Mo Qian’er’s mouth to dilute the powder.
She wiped the water off Mo Qian’er’s lips with a handkerchief and said in satisfaction, “Lucky for you, you have a beautiful face.”
Su Muwei stood up and fell to the floor. She shouted weakly, “Someone…”
The maid outside the room rushed in and helped her onto the litter. “My lady, you’ve injured yourself. Even if you feel sorry for Miss Qian’er, you shouldn’t be so reckless…”
Su Muwei was about to say something, when she passed out.
The guards hurriedly carried her back to her yard.
Red Wolf brought the chief doctor over to examine Lu Fenying. He asked worriedly, “How’s the crown prince?”
“The crown prince is psychopathic. A person who has been dealt a severe blow is generally like this. Some will make a fuss, some will go crazy with panic, and some will have nightmares daily…”
Red Wolf didn’t want to listen to that nonsense. “Is there any way to get better?”
“I’ve performed some acupuncture. He should be able to wake up. The crown prince is only showing mild symptoms. Thankfully, His Highness has always been tough,” the chief doctor said as he took out the needles.
He hoped that the crown prince would spare his family for saving him.
Red Wolf, on the other hand, was worried that the crown prince, who had always had such tenacious willpower, would go crazy because of Mo Qian’er’s death. It was clear how big a blow Qian’er’s death had been to him.
He had been with the crown prince for years, and had experienced all kinds of storms, and he had never seen the crown prince scared.
But now, he was like this because of a female slave whom he had never doted on.
