Su Jin and Mrs. Tang entered the room, just in time to hear what Marquis Dongxiang was saying.
Mrs. Tang looked at Marquis Dongxiang and said, "How could he have escaped? Wasn't there always someone watching him?"
Ever since Su Chong drugged Prince Qi, Marquis Dongxiang had arranged for someone to keep an eye on Prince Qi.
Under the watchful eyes of the servants at the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion, it was impossible for Prince Qi to escape.
Marquis Dongxiang stood up and said, "If he hadn't escaped, Prince Qi wouldn't refuse Doctor Zhao's pulse-check."
Both Prince Qi and Duke Chong were smart people.
Prince Qi knew very well why he suffered the same poison as Old Duke Chong.
If he honestly let Doctor Zhao take his pulse, wouldn't that be telling them that he hadn't detoxified?
He had been straightforward for so many days and wouldn't suddenly change his ways by refusing Doctor Zhao's assistance.
