"How is she?"

"Your Highness, Lady Shen has been poisoned with a potent toxin, yet I find it odd that ordinary people would have perished on the spot, but Lady Shen did not."

"I understand. Thankfully, the toxin hasn't spread to her internal organs yet. I can prepare an antidote accordingly."

Xiao Jinyan did not relax upon hearing this, as Shen Chuwei had been poisoned with something so deadly, her life could be lost at any moment.

While Imperial Doctor Wen was preparing the medicine, Xiao Jinyan sat by the bed, staring at Shen Chuwei's pale, grayish face, filled with worry.

The making of the medicine was quick, and soon a steaming bowl of medicinal soup was brought over.
