After determining the identity of the person behind her, she directly knocked Gong Hongxu unconscious.

Then he turned his head, looked at Chu Linchen, and asked puzzledly, "Why are you back again?"

While asking, he looked out the door uneasily.

"There's no one outside." Chu Linchen spoke in a low voice, met Qin Shu's surprised gaze, and explained with a faint smile: "I took them all away."

Then, he told her about Yuan Xinrong and his party.

"They already know that you are not the real Yuan Luoli and are preparing to expose your identity. I was worried that I might miss your business, so I had them detained."

After Chu Linchen finished speaking, his eyes fell on Gong Hongxu, who had fainted but his body was hot and red.

He frowned sternly, "What's wrong with him?"

Qin Shu was thinking that it would be too coincidental for the Yuan family to appear here.

Hearing Chu Linchen's inquiry, he came back to his senses and said casually: "I took the wrong medicine."

Then she withdrew from his arms, picked up the empty bowl of medicine next to the bed, and smelled the remaining medicine inside.

Because the smell of these medicines when combined together is relatively strong, even if she has a keen sense of smell, she can't tell the clues at once.

She thought for a moment, stretched out one finger and dipped the remaining liquid at the bottom of the bowl.

Just as he was about to put it into his mouth, Chu Linchen grabbed his wrist.

He looked at her nervously, with doubt and disapproval in his deep eyes.

Qin Shu showed him a relieved smile, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."

After saying that, he lowered his head, took the concoction from his fingertips into his mouth, and tasted it carefully on the tip of his tongue.

"Ephedra, licorice, moxa leaves..."

She carefully stripped out every flavor, except for one, which was not in her formula.

really!

It's the problem with this bowl of medicine.

She had seen the medicines when she was dispensing them just now, and there were no problems with them. That was... they were tampered with later.

Qin Shu immediately thought of the guard who gave Gong Hongxu medicine just now.

"It's so hot, so hot..." Gong Hongxu, who was knocked unconscious, twisted his body unconsciously. It was obviously a cold day, but there was a layer of fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

Chu Linchen also saw what was going on with Gong Hongxu, and said casually: "It seems that the properties of this medicine are quite strong."

Qin Shu said "hmm" thoughtfully.

How could a mere guard dare to give Gong Hongxu such a strong drug?

And this medicine was given——

If she didn't have the silver needle to suppress Gong Hongxu's actions, and she didn't have the ability to stun the opponent with one move, I'm afraid she would be the unlucky one.

Therefore, the person who gave this medicine clearly came here for her.

Behind the guard, there was someone else encouraging him.

After thinking about this, Qin Shu confirmed with Chu Linchen: "Did the Yuan family reveal any other information? For example...how did they know I was here?"

As if expecting Qin Shu to ask this question, Chu Linchen's lips curled up slightly, revealing an intriguing smile, "Guess?"

Qin Shu pondered for a moment and spit out a name: "Xin Bao'e?"

Seeing the look of surprise on Chu Linchen's face, she immediately had the answer.

It seems that I guessed it right.

Responding to the doubts in Chu Linchen's eyes, she explained: "Xin Bao'e and the Yuan family brothers and sisters have united against me before. I guess they must still be in contact privately. Moreover, I came here because Xin Yu told me about the palace.

Many people will rest here. As for the news about Xin Yu, it came from Xin Bao'e."
