Reborn to be without his father but with his son, the prince shouted, "I'm not dead!"

Chapter 167 Calming Incense

Ji Yunchu originally planned to cook cakes for the second prince, but unexpectedly received a secret letter from Wei Luoyan. Ji Yunchu was shocked that Wei Luoyan had actually placed spies around the second prince.

She was worried that Wei Luoyan would tell the Second Prince about what happened between them, so she had no choice but to compromise and secretly go to the old place to keep the appointment.

When she saw Wei Luoyan, Ji Yunchu said with a sour face, "You have something to ask me?"

"How are you? You look a little down."

Wei Luoyan's eyes were glued to Ji Yunchu's face, as if he was trying to remember Ji Yunchu deeply in his heart.

Ji Yunchu certainly couldn't tell Wei Luoyan that the Second Prince treated her badly. She was distant and said condescendingly, "I'm the Second Prince's concubine, how could I not live well?"

The second prince’s biological mother is the imperial concubine, and she must never be allowed to know that she and Wei Luoyan had an affair.

"Let's not meet again in the future. I almost died at the hands of the Imperial Concubine at that banquet. I hope you can keep the matter between us a secret. Otherwise, if the Imperial Concubine knows, neither of us will be well."

Ji Yunchu took out a stick of incense and said, "Master Wei, this incense has a calming effect. I'll give it to you. We'll say goodbye now."

Wei Luoyan stared at the calming incense for a long time before speaking, "Is this the calming incense you gave to Deng Qiqi?"

Ji Yunchu's heart trembled and she almost dropped the calming incense. For a moment she thought that Wei Luoyan knew that the calming incense contained poison.

"It's different from the calming incense I gave to Deng Qiqi. I spent a lot of money to find it just for you. I remember all the kindness you've shown me in the past, but it's a pity that we are not destined to be together."

This calming incense is more poisonous than the one given to Deng Qiqi. She will no longer need to give Wei Luoyan sachets in the future.

Wei Luoyan took the calming incense, looked at it carefully for a moment, then looked up at Ji Yunchu's kind eyes. Should he believe Ji Yunchu?
He had prepared questions in advance, but at this moment he couldn't open his mouth.

"Yunchu, can you give me another sachet?"

"Didn't I give it to you last time?"

Ji Yunchu suppressed the impatience in her eyes and said earnestly, "The calming incense also represents my feelings for you."

Ji Yunchu lowered her head in embarrassment, "Now the imperial concubine is worried about not being able to find any fault with me, it is really inconvenient for me to make a sachet for you again."

Wei Luoyan looked at her dejectedly, and said solemnly, "Goodbye."

Before turning around and leaving, he asked Ji Yunchu again, "Yunchu, have you ever given this calming incense to anyone else? Or has it ever been touched by anyone else?"

Ji Yunchu mistakenly thought that Wei Luoyan was jealous, "No, I prepared this specially for you, how could it have been in someone else's hands?"

"That's good." Wei Luoyan glanced at Ji Yunchu meaningfully.

Just one glance made Ji Yunchu's heart tremble. She must have thought too much. How could that fool Wei Luoyan know?

Wei Luoyan did not go back to Nanhou Mansion directly. In order to conceal his whereabouts, he ordered Shuda to ride a horse to the pharmacy.

In the pharmacy, Ya Yan had been waiting for Wei Luoyan for a long time on the orders of the Crown Prince's Consort.

"Sir, are you seeing a doctor?"

Wei Luoyan gave Shuda a look, and Shuda immediately stepped forward and said, "Doctor, there are too many people here, can we move to a quieter place?"

"Sure, sure, it's just about the price~" Yayan winked and touched his beard.

"We'll pay three times the money."

"Okay, sir, please follow me." Yayan took Wei Luoyan to an empty side room.

Wei Luoyan stretched out his hand.

"Tsk, sir, your pulse is not right. In my opinion, you are poisoned. This poison is very rare, even for the royal family."

Wei Luoyan's face changed drastically. He was actually poisoned. Why couldn't the imperial physician see it before?

"Do you have a way to detoxify?" "I said it's rare, how can I have a way to detoxify? I just saw it in medical books, and I thought it was made up by others. I didn't expect to see it on you, it really opened my eyes."

Wei Luoyan looked flustered, "Am I going to die?"

"The poison is not serious, so he won't die for the time being."

Wei Luoyan breathed a sigh of relief. Since he would not die for a while, he would have time to ask someone to find a doctor to treat him. He took out the calming incense and handed it to Yayan.

"Can you please help me check if this incense is poisonous?"

Yayan took a look and was immediately shocked.

"Who gave you this tranquilizing incense? It's extremely poisonous. If my guess is correct, it's exactly the same poison as the one in your body!"

Wei Luoyan's face turned even paler, and he pursed his lips and took the calming incense.

Shuda looked at Wei Luoyan worriedly, "Sir, the world is so big that there are all kinds of things. I will definitely find a way to detoxify you."

"Go home."

Wei Luoyan twisted the calming incense on his head, his eyes deep and cold.

Outside the Nanhou Mansion, Yuemei begged the guards at the gate to let her in.

She came out to buy something and accidentally ran into Deng Qiqi standing at the gate of Nanhou Mansion. She also saw with her own eyes that Deng Qiqi was brought into Nanhou Mansion by Wei Luoyan and has not come out until now.

Yuemei couldn't understand why Deng Qiqi appeared in Nanhou Mansion even though he was clearly taken away by Ji Yunchu. She didn't dare to ask Ji Yunchu for help because Ji Yunchu would definitely take Deng Qiqi's life.

"Miss Yuemei, why are you here?" Others didn't know Yuemei, but Shuda did. He knew that Yuemei used to be Ji Yunchu's personal maid.

Shuda couldn't help but look cold when he saw Yuemei's anxious expression. Could it be that Ji Yunchu wanted the young master to help her with something again?
That bitch has such a vicious heart. She poisoned the young master first and then asked him for help. She is so shameless!

Yuemei's eyes lit up when she saw Wei Luoyan's cold face, and she hurriedly knelt at Wei Luoyan's feet and begged.

"Master Wei, please release Deng Qiqi. I am willing to work like a slave to repay you."

He actually came for Deng Qiqi.

Wei Luoyan looked at Yuemei and said in a cold tone, "I heard that after Deng Qiqi went to the other courtyard, you stayed in the other courtyard to serve him. Did he often light calming incense in his room?"

Yuemei knelt on the ground, not understanding why Wei Luoyan suddenly mentioned the calming incense. She knew that thing was poisonous, but Wei Luoyan and Ji Yunchu had a very good relationship, so she didn't dare to say it directly.

"I just follow the orders of the young lady. I will do whatever the young lady tells me to do."

Wei Luoyan said irritably, "So did Deng Qiqi light the calming incense in his room?"

Yuemei was so scared that her body was shaking and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

"Yes, the young lady was worried that Deng Qiqi would not sleep well, so she asked me to light the calming incense."

Wei Luoyan gave a cold-blooded smile and signaled Shuda to bring Yuemei into the mansion.

Shuda picked up Yuemei roughly, and regardless of Yuemei's struggle to cover her mouth, he took her to the yard where Deng Qiqi was.

Yuemei looked around in horror. As a girl who had lost her virginity, there was no way Wei Luoyan would fall in love with her. But when she saw Wei Luoyan's ferocious face, she was very afraid of losing her life in Nanhou Mansion. It seemed that she had not offended Nanhou Mansion.

"Please spare my life, sir. I don't know how I have offended you. Please tell me clearly."

"Don't you want to see Deng Qiqi?"

Wei Luoyan took out a calming incense from his sleeve.

"This was given to me by Yunchu. I am in a good mood today. Since Deng Qiqi is restless in his sleep, I will give this calming incense to Deng Qiqi. Shuda, take it to his room and light it."
