Chapter 198 The man behind the scenes
“As for the essential oil thing, I really didn’t know it was a knockoff.”
"My Lord, if I knew there was something wrong with something, I would rather suffer the consequences myself than let the Imperial Concubine use it."
Su Wan lowered her head, covered her chest and spoke with all her heart. Chu Beiyu already felt indebted to Su Wan and when he saw her covering her chest, he couldn't help but think of the time when he blocked the sword.
Such a gentle and kind-hearted woman was willing to risk her own life to save his. What else could he doubt?
Even if Su Wan was wrong, it was because Ye Qingluo forced her to do so.
He held Su Wan's hand, sighing with resentment, "Wan'er, how could I not know your temper?"
"We can only blame Ye Qingluo for being too cunning!"
"I will never let her off easily on these matters!"
Su Wan's eyes lit up. Seeing that Chu Beiyu did not pursue the assassin, but wanted to hold Ye Qingluo accountable, she was delighted and asked, "My Lord, have you come up with a solution?"
Chu Beiyu nodded, "Just wait and see, this vicious woman's good days are coming to an end!"
in the palace.
Ye Qingluo followed the palace maid to the Imperial Hospital.
"Master Sun, the wife of Marquis Pingyuan is here."
At the reminder of the palace maid, the four imperial doctors standing in the courtyard, including Dean Sun, gathered together, all with inquiring eyes.
"Madam Pingyuan Hou, I have to invite you here suddenly. I apologize if it is abrupt."
Dean Sun stepped forward and bowed to Ye Qingluo, saying softly, "I don't want to doubt Madam about the beauty serum, but Ningxiang Powder is not something that can be found in the capital, so we must be careful."
"May I ask you where did you get it, Madam?"
Everyone looked over here. You know, as the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion, she shouldn't have the chance to leave the capital, so it was really rare for her to get Ningxiang Powder.
Facing the gazes of these people, Ye Qingluo remained calm and said, "Master Sun, have you forgotten that the beauty serums that have caused problems one after another are not of ordinary quality?"
"Hmph, Madam Pingyuan Hou, even if it is a normal product, it also contains Ningxiang Powder. Although the dosage is extremely low and it has been neutralized to a certain extent, you and I both understand pharmacology, so why should we hide it!"
The imperial physician next to him was dissatisfied with Ye Qingluo's words.
"We think that you have treated the Empress Dowager before, so your medical skills are different. However, the Imperial Concubine is still in a coma, and the incident was caused by the beauty serum. If the Imperial Concubine has any mishap, please don't implicate me."
"Everyone, rest assured. I have found a cure for the Imperial Concubine's illness."
Dean Sun was full of curiosity. After his last observation and the acupuncture techniques used by Ye Qingluo, he was not only curious about the wife of Marquis Pingyuan but also admired her medical skills.
"really?"
Ye Qingluo nodded, "Master Sun, please come with me to the Imperial Concubine's palace."
"Alright."
Dean Sun agreed immediately, but was opposed by other imperial physicians.
"Master, can I go with you on this matter? Although the wife of Marquis Pingyuan knows medical skills, her words may not be trustworthy. You must be careful."
The imperial physician who spoke looked at Ye Qingluo with an unfriendly look, his eyes full of vigilance.
Dean Sun glanced at Ye Qingluo over there and refused, "The Imperial Concubine is in a situation where it is not suitable for too many people to disturb her now."
"Besides, the emperor once said that we, the Imperial Hospital, should cooperate with Madam Pingyuan to treat her."
"In this case, Master, please do not let your guard down." The imperial physician showed a worried look.
Ye Qingluo's eyes fell on the imperial physician who was speaking. Ever since he entered the Imperial Medical Bureau, this man's gaze had been more unfriendly than that of the other imperial physicians, and his words had been the most intense.
The situation was as if there had been a deep hatred between him and me from the very beginning.
Such behavior is really strange.
After leaving the Imperial Hospital and on the way to the Imperial Concubine's Palace, Dean Sun apologized to Ye Qingluo, "Madam Ye, Imperial Doctor Jiang has just come to the Imperial Hospital and is usually outspoken. Please forgive me if I offended you just now."
"But I don't understand, how can Madam Ye treat it?"
The imperial concubine's condition was caused by the use of a large amount of Ningxiang Powder. It is obviously not feasible to rely solely on acupuncture to expel the toxins.
I just came to the Imperial Hospital... and the other party has such an attitude.
Haha, it’s really interesting.
"Dean Sun, do you know about the Manying Fruit?"
Dean Sun's expression froze, his eyes full of surprise, "Madam Ye, the Manying Fruit grows in extremely cold places, and its stems and leaves are also highly poisonous. It is impossible for ordinary people to obtain it."
"Is it possible..."
Ye Qingluo nodded, agreeing with Dean Sun's guess.
"To be honest, both the Manying Fruit and Ningxiang Powder were obtained by me accidentally. Ningxiang Powder would not cause any harm to the human body if it is taken in small doses, but it attracted some people with bad intentions."
"The other party not only imitated the bottle, but also its ingredients..."
She must find out the person behind the scenes, maybe she can find out the truth about Ye Yuanshan's poisoning.
But when they arrived at the imperial concubine's palace, after crushing the Manying fruit and mixing it with water for the imperial concubine to drink, the situation not only did not improve, but became even worse.
"what!"
The palace maid carrying water saw the rash on the imperial concubine's face, and she stepped back, dropping the bowl in her hand to the ground.
"Madam Pingyuan Hou, didn't you come here to treat her? Why is the Imperial Concubine's condition getting worse the more you treat her?"
"Or did you plan to murder someone long ago, hoping to harm the Imperial Concubine?"
Seeing that the scene was about to turn chaotic, Dean Sun stepped forward and said, "Everyone calm down. I have already checked the antidote that Madam Ye gave me just now and it is fine. As for why the queen has a rash..."
“That’s because of a dual reaction.”
Ye Qingluo spoke, her eyes fell on the red rash on the imperial concubine's face, her expression looking solemn.
"If it was just a large amount of Ningxiang Powder, the Manying Fruit should not have no effect at all. The only possibility is that the other party added something else in it."
"A poisonous insect soaked in several kinds of toxins."
"what!"
This time, not only the palace maids present but also Dean Sun were surprised.
When he was taking the patient's pulse earlier, he felt that there was something wrong, but he couldn't figure out what it was.
But after Ye Qingluo said this, some things seemed to become clear.
The maid looked horrified, "Madam Pingyuan, do you mean to say that the worm is still in the queen's body?"
"That's not the case." Ye Qingluo explained, "The imitation used by the majesty contains not only a large amount of Ningxiang Powder, but also poisonous insects soaked in toxins. This is why it repels the Manying Fruit that has the effect of dissolving Ningxiang Powder, and aggravates the imperial concubine's condition."
"And this Gu worm was already dead when it was soaked in the toxin."
In this case, another method must be used to treat the imperial concubine.
Although the toxin produced by the poisonous insects used in the imitation product is not the same as the one in Ye Yuanshan's body, there are great similarities between them.
As long as she knew who made it, perhaps she would be close to the truth she wanted...!
