Chen Wufu didn't care much. Their honor and disgrace were all tied to Emperor Liang Cheng. If Emperor Liang Cheng was well, they would be well. If Emperor Liang Cheng was not well, those of them who had served him closely in the past would not have a good outcome.

It was already past midnight when Marquis Yongning and Chen Zhaoci entered the imperial study together, bringing with them a chill in the air.

Seeing her elder brother there, Chen Zhaoci's eyes widened in surprise. Chen Zhaocheng waved to her. Chen Wufu went to check on the secondary room where Emperor Liang Cheng usually rested. Emperor Liang Cheng was still sleeping. He waved to the three people standing outside. Marquis Yongning walked a little further away and asked Chen Zhaocheng what was going on.

Chen Zhaocheng then recounted the whole story, including the troubles he was facing in obtaining the medicine. After thinking for a moment, the Marquis of Yongning said, "If possible, I would like to ask my brother-in-law to go to the southwest to obtain the medicine."

Chen Zhaocheng looked at Marquis Yongning, who said to him, "This matter is too complicated. I don't trust anyone to go and collect the herbs. His Majesty's health is related to too many people, so we must treat it with utmost care."

Chen Zhaocheng thought for a moment and nodded. Chen Zhaoci said anxiously, "But what about the poison in His Majesty's body? Brother, I'm not an expert in this."

Chen Zhaocheng said, "His Majesty's poisoning this time is not serious. His Majesty must have been overworked and too tired before, which is why the Imperial Physician discovered the presence of the poison. Zhaoci, you only need to take care of His Majesty's health. You don't need to do anything else."

Chen Wufu waved over and whispered, "His Majesty has awakened. Please come over."

Marquis Yongning led his brother and sister into the west side room. Chen Zhaocheng noticed that Emperor Liang Cheng's complexion had improved considerably, which gave him more confidence in his judgment. Marquis Yongning explained his plan to send Chen Zhaocheng to the southwest to collect herbs. Emperor Liang Cheng pondered for a long time before saying, "Select five people from the first team to go together. Wufu, you make the arrangements. Be careful along the way, especially when you reach the southwest. Do not alert the garrison there."

Chen Wufu agreed. Meanwhile, Chen Zhaocheng, after examining Emperor Liang Cheng's pulse, gave Chen Zhaoci a wink. Chen Zhaoci carefully examined the pulse, but inwardly pondered the cunning nature of this poison. If Chen Zhaocheng hadn't already told him to come and treat the patient, he would most likely have mistaken this pulse for a common cold.
