Divine Doctor Zhai didn't mention that Consort Qin's control over Xiao Jiu was obviously to gain Jun Yuyan's support in the palace. This was a threat, and surely Ah Jiu would suffer for it.
"Don't we have you and the Prince? I believe in you two."
Murong Jiu said with a smile brimming in her eyes, not wanting them to worry too much about her health.
At that moment, Kai Xuan ran back from outside, and as soon as he returned, he began to circle Murong Jiu, shaking his head and wagging his tail. He was usually very aloof with others, but whenever he faced Murong Jiu, he behaved like an exuberantly playful dog.
He had grown a lot; Yang Shan took him hunting in the mountains every day, and he had just returned from one such excursion.
However, no sooner had he circled around Murong Jiu once than he suddenly stopped, his nose twitching rapidly before he started to nuzzle her leg anxiously with it.
He smelled the poison on her.
