The Emperor's Son-in-Law

Duan Chun understood the current situation.

But he was more interested in Xiao Wangshan.

This middle-aged eunuch was the junior supervisor of the Punishment Department of the Ye Ting Palace.

The Ye Ting Palace was usually where palace maids and women who were confiscated to the palace for crimes were imprisoned.

It was part of the Taiji Palace.

The Punishment Department was a place of criminal law specifically used to punish people who made mistakes in the palace.

Those who could work in the Ye Ting Palace were cruel and ruthless since ancient times.

The Punishment Department was a place that people in the palace were afraid of!

Xiao Wangshan, however, did not have a trace of cruelty on his face, and he always smiled when he spoke.

Duan Chun was secretly frightened in his heart. This guy was definitely a ruthless character!

Moreover, he investigated the case so quickly, he should be a master who specialized in this line.

You know, there are many ways to use poison in the palace, and Xiao Wangshan can already distinguish the toxicity of the poison at a glance.

"Shaojian Xiao, since you know what poison the other party used?"

"Can you find a way to remove the poison from them as soon as possible?"

"Since Beixia doesn't want them to perform at the palace banquet tonight, I have to try it!"

Duan Chun asked.

"Don't worry, young master, they just took the poison."

"As long as the imperial physician comes, he can identify the type of poison."

"We will definitely help these people detoxify as soon as possible."

"But Xu Li...we must take him back to the palace for protection as soon as possible."

"Beixia may have more than one method."

Xiao Wangshan nodded.

"I understand, then I'll have to trouble Shaojian Xiao."

Duan Chun was slightly relieved.

At the same time, he was also full of interest in this Shaojian Xiao.

"Shaojian Xiao can get the secret decree of His Majesty today."

"It can be seen that Lord Shaojian has always been trusted by His Majesty."

"Where is Shaojian Xiao from?"

Duan Chun asked tentatively.

"Young Master, you are too kind."

"This is the first time I have received a secret decree from His Majesty."

"Young Master, do you know why His Majesty asked me to help you this time?"

Xiao Wangshan asked with a smile.

"Oh, did His Majesty intend to let Xiao Shaojian help me?"

Duan Chun was very curious.

"Yes, I am just an old slave of the previous dynasty."

"In the past... I have always served Empress Jing."

"Ten years ago, I was driven into the Ye Ting Palace and almost died."

"Fortunately, I have a foster father to live until now."

"Today, I received a secret decree from His Majesty and came to the Jiaofangsi. Don't you know what His Majesty is thinking?"

Xiao Wangshan said lightly.

"You, are you Aunt Wan's person?"

Duan Chun understood immediately.

His Majesty asked Aunt Wan's old people to help him.

This means that His Majesty has planned to marry Princess Xian to him!

"It's good that the young master understands."

"I am just a useless person who escaped a disaster."

"From now on, I will obey the young master's orders."

"Please take good care of me!"

Xiao Wangshan suddenly stood up straight, and the smile on his face disappeared.

Replaced with a solemn look.

Bending down and bowing respectfully to Duan Chun.

"Oh, I understand."

"Your Majesty asked you to meet me to prepare for Princess Xian's marriage?"

Duan Chun asked.

"Yes, Princess Xian has not left Beiqiu Garden for ten years."

"Until now, Her Royal Highness has not established a title in Zongzheng Temple."

"Your Majesty is arranging Princess Xian's official title, and let me contact the young master in advance."

"Prepare a mansion and servants for Her Royal Highness outside the palace."

"Because Princess Xian has a special status, His Majesty is worried about using other people."

Xiao Wangshan said in a low voice.

"Then Xiao Shaojian will..."

"I will be the general manager of the princess's mansion in the future."

"Prepare everything outside the palace for Princess Xian."

"This is also a small compensation from His Majesty to Her Majesty."

"I hope the young master understands."

Xiao Wangshan replied.

"Okay, since His Majesty has made arrangements."

"Then do it according to His Majesty's will."

"Xiao Shaojian can always find me if you have anything."

Duan Chun nodded.

"Thank you, young master."

While the two were talking, two imperial doctors hurried into the courtyard under the leadership of the messenger of the Jiaofang Division.

They began to check the poisoned musicians and dancers one by one.

Xiao Wangshan winked, and the two eunuchs hurried over.

After a conversation with the imperial doctor, a eunuch came to the two.

"Report to the young master, report to the young eunuch."

"The imperial doctor said that the poisoned people were found to have the medicinal properties of Agropyron ovata and Aconitum."

The eunuch reported in a low voice.

"That's good. Prepare the antidote immediately."

"Fortunately, the musicians were poisoned early. Detoxify them as soon as possible."

"And use our medicine to restore their strength."

Xiao Wangshan said lightly.

"Yes, sir."

The eunuch turned and left immediately.

"Young Master, in this courtyard."

"The poisoner is not far away."

"We have already sent people to secretly watch the courtyard."

"As long as Xu Li doesn't show up, he won't continue to do it now."

"But as long as he sees our people quickly detoxify."

"The poisoner may not dare to stay any longer."

Xiao Wangshan said softly.

"What are you going to do?"

Duan Chun asked curiously.

"We plan to escort Xu Li into the palace first."

"Let the poisoned musicians and dancers continue to rest here and recover their strength."

"When that guy escapes, it will be the time for our people to capture him."

Xiao Wangshan said.

"You are indeed worthy of being the Junior Supervisor of the Punishment Department."

"Everything has been arranged long ago."

"Where are your people hiding now?"

Duan Chun's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.

"It's around this courtyard, between some rockery and gardens."

Xiao Wangshan replied.

"Then don't rush to arrest people."

"Xiao Shaojian should know that catching a poisoner will not get you anything."

"It will be a real achievement to catch the person behind him."

Duan Chun said.

"What the young master means is..."

Xiao Wangshan was instantly surprised.

"My meaning is very simple, lay a long line to catch a big fish."

"You can deliberately alarm the person who poisoned, so that he can't escape."

"Then your people will secretly keep an eye on him, as long as he doesn't find out."

"Find his hiding place and slowly figure out his exact identity."

"And his backer."

"In this way, Xiao Shaojian will have done a great job."

"Even if we can't find out, it's better than just catching a poisoner."

"Then it's better to cut off the clues."

Duan Chun reminded.

"The young master is really amazing."

"I admire you very much!"

Xiao Wangshan was immediately excited.

"Okay, let Xiao Shaojian do these things."

"My people have been detoxified, how can they quickly recover their physical strength?"

"It won't affect the palace banquet tonight?"

Duan Chun asked.

"Don't worry, young master. They will still be weak after the poison is removed."

"But we just need to give them a pill."

"It will make them full of energy instantly, but they will probably have to lie down and rest for the next few days."

"But please rest assured, young master, I will never kill them."

Xiao Wangshan smiled.

"Then do it."

"I'll leave the things here to you."

"I'll go outside and come back in the afternoon."

"But if there is any new situation, you can send someone to Wanhua Tower to find me."

Duan Chun nodded, turned around and left directly...

"Yes."

Xiao Wangshan bowed his head and saluted.
