An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 704

Lord Hua Guo has been ill? Hearing that, Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan both frowned. Yun Shang asked, "What happened? I heard from the servants that Lord Hua Guo had been to Prince Rui's mansion yesterday. Why did he suddenly fall ill?"

The butler answered hastily, "I don't know, Your Highness. It was not until this morning that I found it. His Lordship has the habit of morning exercise, but he was still sleeping after 7 o'clock. I felt something was wrong and knocked the door. No one answered, so I pushed the door open and saw His Lordship looked pale with his eyes closed. He seemed to be suffering from great pain, and his body was cold. Besides, his pulse was weak."

Yun Shang's heart sank when she heard the butler's words. She hurriedly said, "Please lead the way. I'll go and have a look."

The Butler answered yes, and led Yun Shang into the mansion. They reached a turret after a quarter of an hour's walk. The butler led them to a room on the second floor, and opened the door for Yun Shang, "Please."

The room is very quiet. The moment Yun Shang stepped into the room, she felt the scent of sandalwood. The furniture in the study were all black, which was quite different from Lord Hua Guo's impression on her.

Lord Hua Guo entered the bedchamber. It had the same style as the study. There were only two maids serving him in the room. Lord Hua Guo was lying on the bed, motionless.

"Where is grandma?" Yun Shang looked around and didn't see her, so she turned to the butler.

The butler answered promptly. "I haven't informed Her Ladyship yet. I'm afraid she is too weak to bear this. In fact, other masters are all in the court. The first thing I thought of was to report to your highnesses."

Yun Shang nodded, walked to the bedside, and sat down. She raised Lord Hua Guo's hand to feel his pulse, and frowned. After a long while, she put his hand down.

"Are you alright, your highness?" Anxiety was written all over the butler's face. Even Luo Qingyan looked up at Yun Shang.

Yun Shang thought for a while and said, "If I'm right, grandfather must have been poisoned."

"Poisoned?" The butler cried out in shock. He hurriedly said, "Your Highness, do you know what poison it is? Do you have an antidote? "

Yun Shang examined Lord Hua Guo's features and hands carefully before standing up and asking, "What did grandpa eat last night?"

The butler thought for a while before he answered, "All His Lordship ate were just ordinary food, braised pork, pork with salted vegetable, plum blossom chicken, chicken slices with plum blossom, tofu soup with vegetables, and a few other dishes. But there should be no poison in the meal. Her Ladyship had dinner together with His Lordship yesterday. If the meal was poisoned, Her Ladyship would have also been poisoned.

Yun Shang nodded, lost in thought. After a while, she looked up again. "Does His Lordship drink when he have meals?" To be precise, did His Lordship drink liquor last night during the dinner? "

The Butler thought for a while and then nodded. "Yes, he drank bamboo leaf liquor. But Her Ladyship doesn't like him to drink, so he only drank a little."
