“Madam.”

Ling Lihua’s expression softened when she recognized the man as one of Tingchen’s personal guards.
“Is something the matter?”

Xu Chen nodded and explained quickly, “I just remembered an important thing.
One time, when the Heir Presumptive was patrolling the quarantine camp, a soldier suddenly went mad and crashed into him, but he even carried the soldier back after that.

“The situation was urgent at the time, so the Heir Presumptive didn’t think too much about it, but we were all shocked because we knew how contagious the disease was.
However, the Heir Presumptive was perfectly fine after that.
Even the physician found it strange and specially examined him, but he was in good health, and nothing abnormal happened afterward either.
The physician thought he must have some kind of special physique that helped him escape unscathed.

“But the Heir Presumptive later remembered that Second Miss had once given him a medicine that made him impervious to hundreds of poisons, and that he had consumed it before setting off for the frontier.
He suspects that the reason he didn’t catch the disease is related to the medicine Second Miss gave him.”

After listening to him, Ling Lihua pondered for a moment.
A thought came to her, and she said firmly, “Since the medicine that gave him poison immunity also helps him resist this disease, this means that the disease is probably not caused by a plague but a poison.
The soldiers aren’t ill at all—they’re poisoned.”

Xu Chen was thunderstruck.
“Poisoned?”

Hearing their conversation, Lu Hetian rode over.
Staring at Ling Lihua, he asked again to confirm, “Is it really poison?”

Ling Lihua nodded.
“According to what Xu Chen described, it probably is.”

Lu Hetian was surprised.
“I can’t believe it!”

Ling Lihua steered her horse around abruptly.
“Since it’s poison, I think I know what to do.”

Startled, Lu Hetian called out, “Where are you going?”
