Chapter 98: A Child's Favorite

Prince Dwei woke up in the early morning, feeling his whole body still weak from the effects of the poison, which he didn't even know came from. His instincts told him that someone in the palace was the suspect in this poisoning incident. The nerve endings of his brain almost caught the person's name, but slowly it seemed to fade until it was completely out of his head.

"Argh!" he groaned as he rubbed his head, looked around, and found himself in his room. Before he could manage to fully regain consciousness, a few thumps of feet were heard coming out and then back in, followed by Eunuch Cong's voice.

"Prince, are you all right?" But at least he felt relieved when he saw Prince Dwei was able to sit down now. At least that explained that his condition was improving as Physician Kun had predicted.
