Chapter 183 The Emperor of Nanzhao is Poisoned and Dying

Nanzhao, the capital.

As soon as Yu Tingwan got up, she saw Wen Shiyan walking in from outside.

Although he had a smile on his face, the two had known each other for many years and understood each other very well.

With just one glance, Yu Tingwan knew that something must be wrong with Wen Shiyan.

"What's wrong?" Yu Tingwan asked with a smile.

Wen Shiyan didn't say anything, but handed over a piece of paper in his hand.

Yu Tingwan glanced at Wen Shiyan again, and his expression became serious.

After reading the contents on the paper, Yu Tingwan remained silent for a long time.

Wen Shiyan walked over and gently patted Yu Tingwan's shoulder. "Tingwan, what are you thinking? If you are worried about her, you can arrange for a more powerful doctor or imperial physician to see her..."

Yu Tingwan slowly shook her head. "That's not necessary. Her affairs have nothing to do with me. I've already told her long before that we've made peace with each other and are no longer mother and daughter. Whatever her condition is like, and whether she can be cured, it has nothing to do with me."

Even though she knew that she was her biological mother, after going through so much, Yu Tingwan no longer had any feelings for her.

If she was just disappointed, she would ask the imperial physician to see him.

But now I’m not disappointed, but I don’t want to have any involvement.

They have long since returned to their own ways.

Wen Shiyan had no objection to Yu Tingwan's choice. He just asked another question, "Should we tell Youning about this?"

Yu Tingwan nodded and said, "I want to tell you. I don't want to hide it from her."

Yu Youning is not an ordinary girl. She has no admiration for Madam Lin and will not help her.

The facts were just as Yu Tingwan had thought. After Yu Youning learned about this, she simply said in her milky voice, "God sees what we do. This is probably retribution."

Compared with Mrs. Lin's illness, Yu Youning was more interested in Lin Ruoli.

"Why did she suddenly disappear? Could something have really happened?"

Yu Youning tilted his head as he spoke.

"But I always feel that nothing will happen to her so easily."

At least he won't die easily.

"Could it be that she was taken away by her mother-in-law?"

As Yu Youning spoke, his eyes turned to Chu Huaishan.

Chu Huaishan nodded, "I think so too. Let's have someone look for her more. It would be best if we can find her mother-in-law through her."

They are now in Nanzhao, out of reach, and can only ask their subordinates to search more.

Wen Shiyan and Yu Tingwan both agreed, then turned around and gave orders, asking everyone in the Five Poisons Sect and Penglai Island to pay more attention.

In order to prevent them from not recognizing Lin Ruoli, Yu Tingwan also drew a portrait of Lin Ruoli and had people copy many copies, which were all distributed.

Yu Tingwan was busy, and Yu Youning was also busy.

The Jiang family and Queen Nan have completely torn their relationship apart, and the court is in turmoil.

Either the Jiang family said that Queen Nan's mother's family sold official positions and titles, or Queen Nan's party said that the Jiang family was corrupt and accepted bribes.

The Emperor of Nanzhao was still in a coma, and no one could control them, so they could only let them fight each other.

In the court, everyone was in danger and panic-stricken.

These things originally had nothing to do with Yu Youning, but Yu Youning loved to eat. When she had nothing to do, she would go out to eat delicious food every day.

But the capital was too busy during this period. Not only were there fights in the streets, but there were also murders and poisonings.

But every time, Yu Youning happened to bump into him.

Yu Youning was busy eating and eating melons, and he was having a lot of fun.

Just when everyone thought the situation would continue like this, the emperor's condition suddenly took a turn for the worse.

It was morning, and just after breakfast, Eunuch Liang came in hurriedly.

"Master, please follow me into the palace quickly. Something has happened to the Emperor."

Chu Huaishan looked surprised, "What happened? Wasn't he fine yesterday?"

"I don't know either. It's just that half an hour ago, the palace servants who served the Emperor came to the Empress's palace in a hurry, saying that the Emperor suddenly started vomiting blood, and people saw..."

Eunuch Liang stopped talking here and became more and more anxious.

"Valley Master, please stop asking. Come with me and go into the palace to take a look!"

Chu Huaishan's face was as gloomy as water, but he still stood up and said, "Okay, then I will go with you into the palace to take a look."

Eunuch Liang did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked at Jiang Lingzhou and Yu Youning and said, "I heard that the two disciples of the Valley Master are also very skilled in medicine. Why not let them go with us? There is strength in numbers, and perhaps we can achieve unexpected results."

Hearing this, Chu Huaishan looked towards Eunuch Liang.

This glance made Eunuch Liang's hair stand on end, and a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

Just when he was thinking about whether to say a few more words and explain, he saw Chu Huaishan nodded, "Since the father-in-law said so, let them go together."

Chu Huaixu stood beside Yu Youning and spoke to her quietly, "Youning, be careful when you enter the palace. I will come to find you soon."

"Aren't you going with me?" Yu Youning was a little surprised and puzzled.

In the past, whenever she went to the Nanzhao Palace, Chu Huaixu would go with her no matter what.

But this time, the situation was so urgent, why didn't he go?

Chu Huaixu lowered his voice and said, "I have some things to take care of, so I can go later."

Seeing that he was unwilling to say what it was, Yu Youning did not ask any more questions and only said, "Then you better be careful!"

After instructing Chu Huaixu why, Yu Youning, Jiang Lingzhou, and Chu Huaishan got on the carriage together.

The carriage was incredibly fast and arrived at the palace in only half the usual time.

As soon as he arrived at the palace gate, Yu Youning noticed something was wrong.

There are many more guards at the palace gate than before.

Moreover, these guards had serious expressions, fierce eyes, and a murderous aura. They must be soldiers in the military camp.

Why did the soldiers in the army suddenly enter the palace?

Yu Youning was thinking in his heart, but his steps were not slow.

It didn't take long before they arrived at the Nanzhao Emperor's bedroom.

Every time I came here before, there was no one else here except the palace maids who served the Nanzhao Emperor.

But now, the yard was filled with civil and military officials.

Everyone's face looked extremely anxious.

Eunuch Liang led Yu Youning and the other two through them and went straight into the bedroom.

There are also many people in the bedroom, and all the powerful people are here.

In addition, there were some imperial doctors standing together and whispering, and everyone's expression was extremely solemn.

Queen Nan was sitting beside the dragon bed at this time, her eyes were red, her expression was very sad, and there was anxiety between her brows.

When she saw Chu Huaishan coming, Queen Nan immediately stood up and said, "Valley Master, please come over and take a look!"

Chu Huaishan didn't say anything, but strode forward and carefully examined the Nanzhao Emperor.

Queen Nan didn't urge him at first, but when she saw Chu Huaishan remained silent for a long time, she couldn't help but feel anxious, "Valley Master, how is the emperor? What happened?"

Chu Huaishan withdrew his hand and said, "The emperor has been poisoned. I think the doctors in the Imperial Hospital should have diagnosed it."

He had just finished speaking when an imperial physician came over.

"Valley Master is right. The Emperor has indeed been poisoned. This poison is rare. The Emperor is deeply poisoned. I'm afraid there's no way to save him."

Another imperial physician stepped forward and said, "Valley Master has been treating the Emperor all along. We haven't examined the Emperor's pulse for a long time. May I ask, Valley Master, with your superb medical skills, why didn't you notice that the Emperor was poisoned?"

Queen Nan looked at Chu Huaishan in disbelief, "Valley Master, what's going on? I heard that you have superb medical skills and can even bring the dead back to life, so I asked you to come and see the emperor.

You've been in Nanzhao for a while now, but the Emperor's condition hasn't improved. He's now poisoned and in critical condition. Could it be that you were just a name for nothing?"

The imperial physician shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I believe that the Valley Master's reputation is not in vain. There must be something else behind this matter."

"What do you mean?" Queen Nan asked with a frown.

"Reporting to Her Majesty, we have just conducted a thorough study. The poison that the Emperor is suffering from is extremely rare and was developed by Medicine King Valley."

When these words were spoken, everyone else in the hall looked shocked.

Several ministers couldn't wait to ask

"What?"

"how so?"

"Imperial Physician, are you saying that it was Chu Huaishan who poisoned the emperor?"

"But why would he do that?"

Queen Nan was also incredulous. "Imperial Physician, are you sure? Why would the host poison the emperor for no reason?"

The imperial physician shook his head. "Empress, I don't doubt the Valley Master. Besides the Valley Master, there are two other people who can obtain this poison!"

Hearing this, Queen Nan subconsciously looked at Yu Youning and Jiang Lingzhou.

Before she could say anything, a minister came out from the crowd.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say."

"speak!"

"I think the imperial physician's suspicions are justified. I have heard that the Seventh Prince and the Valley Master's close disciple, Yu Youning, have a very good relationship, and the two often eat together in the city."

"What does this have to do with the Seventh Prince now?" Queen Nan said, frowning even tighter.

"Your Majesty, please listen to me! The Seventh Prince has half the blood of the Jiang family, and these traitors of the Jiang family have been jumping around and stirring up trouble all this time.

I suspect that the Jiang family and the Seventh Prince were behind this, obtaining poison from Yu Youning and poisoning the Emperor in order to usurp the throne!"

After he finished speaking, the hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Queen Nan's expression was solemn. "This is not a trivial matter. We can't talk nonsense."

"Of course I am not talking nonsense. I have evidence to prove that the poison was administered by the Seventh Prince."

Queen Nan's eyes became sharp, and she asked harshly, "What evidence?"
