"Your Excellency."
Granny Cui closed the door and stood by it for a long time.
Once she was sure no one was outside, she returned to Huarong's side and whispered, "Your Excellency, did you injure yourself just now?"
She had coughed up blood, so she must be injured, otherwise, where would the blood come from?
Huarong did not speak, closing her eyes to rest for a moment.
Her complexion did not show any signs of distress and gradually regained its rosy hue.
"Xuan'er's cultivation is profound. His movement therapy for me was very effective." Therefore, this injury is nothing.
Granny Cui finally breathed a sigh of relief, reassured.
"Your Excellency, with you like this... how long do you think the Prince can still be trusted?"
Although the Prince still listened to Your Excellency now, it was obvious that the Prince's obsession with Chu Qianli was deeper than they had imagined.
"Your Excellency, the Prince is no longer willing to agree to leave Chu Qianli. Continuing to force him will only drive him away from Your Excellency."
Granny Cui was worried. This matter had to be resolved eventually.
"Your Excellency, what should we do?"
"Also, from my subordinate's perspective, the Prince already knows that Feng Ling hypnotized him. But he probably doesn't know that Your Excellency placed a蛊 (gu) on him."
Now the Prince was attributing all his anger to Feng Ling. If he knew that Your Excellency had also colluded with Feng Ling to place a 蛊 (gu) on him and control him, then the Prince would truly be difficult to control.
Huarong glared at her.
Granny Cui immediately pursed her lips and lowered her voice further, "Your Excellency, rest assured, your subordinate has observed that walls have no ears."
"Your Excellency, it seems the Prince is no longer controlled by the蛊 (gu) poison. Such a potent 蛊 (gu) could not make him forget his feelings for Chu Qianli."
This was also something Granny Cui had not anticipated at all.
Not only did the Prince not resent Chu Qianli, but he had fallen for her again. Was this destiny, or had something gone wrong somewhere?
Both hypnosis and 蛊 (gu) poison, either one would have been enough to sever all emotional ties for an ordinary person.
Huarong's gaze grew heavy.
Even she hadn't expected her son's feelings for that vixen to be so profound.
Was there truly no way to make that wicked woman Chu Qianli leave her son?
"Your Excellency, Chu Qianli is now the princess of Nanming. In fact..."
"What do you want to say?" Huarong's expression darkened.
Granny Cui knew that Your Excellency had guessed her meaning, but Your Excellency was unwilling.
However, at this point, whether she was unwilling or not seemed unimportant.
"Your Excellency, the most important thing is that we need the power of Nanming to help. Your Excellency, please... don't be angry with Chu Qianli."
"I'm angry with that lunatic?" A mere young girl, did she need to be taken seriously?
Granny Cui carefully smiled apologetically, "Your Excellency, you are magnanimous. Please don't stoop to the level of that little girl, alright?"
Huarong remained silent.
She simply disliked that wretched girl! She disliked her intensely!
That wretched girl was too cunning and beyond her control.
She truly regretted not killing Chu Qianli when she had her in her grasp, to eliminate future trouble.
Was it too late to kill her now?
Granny Cui, seeing her expression, knew what she was thinking and quickly advised, "Your Excellency, look at the Prince. Even after being poisoned by the 蛊 (gu) and hypnotized, he is still like this. If you kill Chu Qianli, the Prince might not... might not be willing to die with her..."
"What nonsense are you spouting?" Her son, how could he possibly die for a vixen?
She refused to accept this notion, absolutely not!
