"Your Highness!"
Liu Jin hurried over, wanting to help him up.
Feng Ye Xuan waved his hand.
Liu Jin dared not approach, only guarding by his side, and asked, "Your Highness, who injured you?"
Feng Ye Xuan did not respond.
Liu Jin clenched his palm, and in his mind, only one person came to mind.
The only one who could injure His Highness was someone His Highness willingly allowed to injure him, the Madam!
Could it be that the Madam had arrived?
"Your Highness..."
"Why the strange expression?" Feng Ye Xuan changed the subject, stopping him from guessing further. "How is Master's health?"
"The Emperor's health has improved considerably these past two days, it seems... due to his mood."
The influence of mood on illness was indeed true.
For the past two days, even he could see that the Emperor's mood was exceptionally good.
Because of his good mood, even his illness had improved significantly, and his condition was now quite stable.
Now, they just had to wait for Chu Qian Li to recover and find a way to clear the two toxins from the Emperor's body. With the Emperor's physical constitution, a body free of toxins would surely recover quickly.
"Since Master's condition has improved, why do you still look so troubled?"
"This..." Liu Jin was somewhat hesitant, unsure whether to tell His Highness.
It was Chu Qian Li and the Emperor's own affair, but he was His Highness's man, and everything, no matter how small, should be reported to His Highness.
Moreover, Chu Qian Li had not made him swear not to speak of it this time, nor had she even mentioned not to speak.
He should be able to speak, right?
"I just performed a blood-dripping kinship test for the Emperor and Miss Chu," he said.
Feng Ye Xuan's brow furrowed slightly. "Why?"
Hadn't they already done a blood-dripping kinship test before?
Of course, Feng Ye Xuan knew in his heart that Chu Qian Li had tampered with the previous blood-dripping kinship test, causing the blood to merge.
Why do it again now?
"Who put pressure on Master again?" he asked.
Liu Jin shook his head, he himself hadn't figured it out either. "I was giving the Emperor acupuncture when the Princess suddenly requested an audience with the Emperor, saying something... it seemed like Prince Jing wanted her and the Emperor to do a blood-dripping kinship test, so she came."
"Because I was present, the blood-dripping kinship test was still performed by me, but... their blood did not merge."
This was what Liu Jin couldn't understand.
Feng Ye Xuan looked at him with a somewhat strange gaze, as if he were the one acting strangely.
"Since they are not true father and daughter, isn't it natural for their blood not to merge?"
Liu Jin understood this matter, so why had he suddenly become confused?
"Your Highness, it's not like that. I've learned some medical skills from the Princess, including the knowledge used for transfusing blood to the poisoned Princess this time."
The Princess had said that as long as two people had the same blood type, they could perform a blood-dripping kinship test.
Therefore, the folk tales of blood-dripping kinship were actually inaccurate.
Also, the Princess had said that even if they were biological, if their blood types were different, their blood would not merge.
After explaining this knowledge to His Highness, Liu Jin said hesitantly, "But not long ago, I transfused the Princess with the Emperor's blood, so they have the same blood type. Regardless of whether they are father and daughter, their blood should merge."
"But today when I dripped their blood, their blood couldn't fuse together. How could this be so strange?"
The more Feng Ye Xuan listened, the deeper his gaze became.
If Liu Jin was telling the truth, then there was only one explanation for this matter: the blood-dripping kinship test today had been tampered with!
And who else could this person be, other than Chu Qian Li?
