Even though Gu Feiyan's words had stopped, Jun Jiuchen still didn't stop using his power.

It was the first time that Gu Feiyan had met such a troublesome person. She finally realized that she had to say something of value to convince him otherwise.

She said seriously, "Eunuch Wu was the real murderer. He wanted to check the dregs, but I caught him. At first, I suspected that the real culprit was someone from the palace, but after some thought, I felt that the real culprit was not someone from the palace. "

Hearing these words, Jun Jiuchen's finally stopped his strength and asked coldly, "Why?"

Gu Feiyan secretly let out a sigh of relief and replied, "Because, the real motive of the culprit was not to kill Cheng Yifei, but to provoke both Cheng and Qi's army! First, I am Qi Yu’s fiancée, I shouldn't have been sent to the Cheng military camp to deliver medicine. But I was sent there to deliver medicine. Second, the real culprit had the ability to only change the prescription but still left the fake prescription as evidence. If Cheng Yifei died that night due to a fake prescription, what would the Cheng family think of me? Could it be that you suspect that the Qi family is behind this? "

Jun Jiuchen nodded, but Gu Feiyan continued, "The day after I returned to the palace, rumors started to spread that insulted the Qi family and also insulted the Cheng family. Once the two armies fell into chaos, Tianyan would fall into chaos. Therefore, I suspect that the real motive of the culprit is to cause chaos. If this person wasn't a traitor, then he was definitely a foreign enemy! Whether it's the traitors or the enemies, they must all be prepared. All that's left is a chance to rebel and send their troops! "

Jun Jiuchen was surprised to hear this.

In fact, he had kidnapped her to try to force out some clues about the real culprit. He did not expect her to be able to analyze so much information with her limited knowledge. She had done such a thorough analysis! Even Cheng Yifei and the Qi family's father and son hadn't thought of this yet. She, a little girl, actually thought of it.

This little girl was quite interesting!

He was willing to believe her just because she dared to say those words to him.

Jun Jiuchen placed the small cauldron on the table and sat down.

Seeing this, Gu Feiyan was secretly delighted. A trace of cunning flashed past her eyes. She quickly sat down and continued analyzing. “Imperial Physician Su's secret formula could be said to be top-notch. It wouldn't be so easy to solve it, but the murderer could easily crack the effect of Xia Su Zi which is fatal to the lung. This meant that if the culprit was not a master of medicine, he definitely would have had the assistance of a master of medicine. If he was unable to kill Cheng Yifei this time, he would definitely plan to make a move next time. He might even use the Imperial Pharmacy to make a move against the other nobles in Tianyan. In other words, the medicine is the murderer's weapon! "

When Gu Feiyan said this, she stole a glance at Jun Jiuchen, and saw that he didn't seem to object to this conjecture, so she boldly continued.

"In the field of pharmacy, I am very willing to work for you!"

Gu Feiyan was planning something small. In front of this fearsome fellow, things like Princess Huaining or the Qi Family, even Cheng Yifei wouldn't pose much of a problem. Since she could not escape his grasp, she might as well rely on him.

If he was really a prince, wouldn't that mean that Princess Huaining would challenge him? Princess Huaining was still waiting for her in the palace.

It was unknown whether Jun Jiuchen had seen through her thoughts or not, but he raised his eyebrows and looked at her coldly.

Gu Feiyan immediately flashed a dog-legged smile, "My pharmacy level would meet your satisfaction! Why don't you believe in me for now and leave me behind? "

Jun Jiuchen hadn't expected that this stubborn little girl would have such a dog-leg situation.

A glint of amusement flitted across his eyes, but he said nothing.

Gu Feiyan was unhappy, but she tried to convince herself that she should not lose the opportunity to do so. Serving this guy at his side was still better than serving Princess Huaining!

Clutching her hands, she blinked her large watery eyes and said miserably, "I promise I won't cause you any trouble. I won't tell the justice courts anything about you. Just take me in! "

After Jun Jiuchen had admired her pitiful appearance for a long time, he finally opened his mouth and said, "Alright!"

Gu Feiyan was overjoyed and did not thank him yet. Jun Jiuchen handed over a prescription and added, "This is the prescription copied from Eunuch Wu's house. It is very likely to be a secret letter written by the murderer. If you can decipher it, I will accept you. "

Gu Feiyan had not expected this fellow to move so quickly. Not only had he investigated Eunuch Wu, he had even obtained evidence! From the looks of it, her guess was correct. His identity definitely wasn't ordinary.

Gu Feiyan immediately put away her pitiful expression and carefully looked at the prescription. However, when she looked left and right, she didn't see anything wrong with this recipe.

"This prescription is for external application. It is used to treat bruises and injuries. There is no need to pay too much attention to the dosage. However, if one were to really talk about it, there was one that wasn't too suitable for use. However, it's not a big problem if you use too much of it.

Jun Jiuchen hurriedly asked, "Which one?"

"Germander."

Gu Feiyan thought for a moment and quickly corrected herself, "No, to be precise, it's not improper use, it's not using it well enough." This medicine is bitter, has cold nature, clearing away heat and detoxifying, relieving swelling and pain, dissipating blood stasis. If you don't have any blood clot, you should be careful with it. It would be better not to add this kind of medicine. "

Jun Jiuchen secretly admired Gu Feiyan from the bottom of his heart as he looked at her strict, professional and earnest attitude.

Mang Zhong had already looked for a few retired medicinal masters at the imperial pharmacy and looked through these prescriptions, but they didn't find any clues. This woman might be young, but she was strict and professional, not one bit inferior to those seniors.

He asked, "Does this prescription have any other problems?"

Gu Feiyan was very sure, "There was a problem with this medicine. But, what can a single pill convey? "

Jun Jiuchen handed over the remaining prescription, "It's all here. The spy found some destroyed prescriptions outside Eunuch Wu's house, which he hid in the house.

Gu Feiyan hurriedly took them and read them one by one. After she read through it, she did not find anything amiss, "These formulas are all quite perfect, regardless of the choice of medicinal ingredients or the dosage. No problem at all."

Before Jun Jiuchen could say anything, she started reading the prescription again, muttering to herself again and again, "The prescription doesn't have any problems with it, but it doesn't mean that it doesn't have a profound mystery. Could it be that it's a type of word technique?"

Her eyes were focused on the prescription. Her expression was seventy percent earnest and thirty percent serious. No one dared to easily disturb her. Although her fever had just subsided, her face was pale and haggard, her hair and clothes were messy, but for some reason, when her delicate and pretty eyebrows knitted together, she exuded an indescribable beauty. It was as if all the elegance in the sky was taken over by her lightly knitted eyebrows.

Jun Jiuchen inadvertently lifted his eyes, and his gaze happened to meet hers. He stopped looking and the words that were about to come out of his mouth unconsciously stopped. He was actually reluctant to disturb her.

Time passed slowly in the silence. She was looking at the prescription and he was looking at her. Both of them seemed to have forgotten everything around them.

Outside the house, Mang Zhong, who was hiding from the onlookers, saw the scene and covered his mouth in shock.

His Highness had seen all the beautiful women that could topple cities. When has his sight ever rested on a peerless beauty? Not to mention being distracted! Mang Zhong thought he had seen wrongly, but when he peeked his head out to take a look again, he saw that his master was obviously lost in thought.

Mang Zhong didn't dare to casually go in. He could only wait at the door with the medicine in his hand …
