As Yun Miao stepped into the imperial study, she smelled a strange fragrance.

This made her brows frown slightly.

When Mu Qianqiu looked up and saw Yun Miao, he also noticed her expression.

He immediately waved his hand and said to the eunuchs serving around him, "Everyone, leave!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Only Mu Qianqiu and Yun Miao were left in the imperial study.

"Mr. Yun, have you noticed anything wrong?" Mu Qianqiu asked bluntly.

Ever since he learned from Yun Miao that he was poisoned, Mu Qianqiu has been suspicious and wary of everyone around him.

Now he called Yun Miao here not only to check on his health, but also because Bai Ri learned that Concubine Li had gone to look for Yun Miao.

Yun Miao did not answer immediately. She walked straight to the incense burner on the table in front of Mu Qianqiu, bent down and smelled it. There was no problem.

Mu Qianqiu didn't blame her for not bowing, and immediately realized, "Is there something fishy going on in my imperial study?"

"Didn't the emperor smell a strange fragrance?" Yun Miao looked around.

Mu Qianqiu frowned slightly, his expression darkening. "You mean the poison is infused in the fragrance?"

Yun Miao sniffed around, trying to find the source, because the fragrance had spread throughout the imperial study over time and it was difficult to find the source.

Mu Qianqiu said, "If you're looking for a scent, then my imperial study changes the incense and calming incense every day, and every corner has special spices to repel mosquitoes. When these are mixed together, it should be difficult to distinguish..."

Yun Miaocai came back to his senses and bowed to Mu Qianqiu, saying, "Your Majesty, this fragrance has a certain soothing effect that can induce sleep. How do you usually use this soothing incense?"

"Have you seen the sachet on my couch? It contains the calming incense purchased from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Is there any problem?" Mu Qianqiu asked.

Yun Miao turned her head and saw a soft couch in the imperial study.

Yun Miao walked over and saw a purple sachet next to the pillow.

When I opened it, the smell inside was indeed very similar to the smell in the air.

Unfortunately not.

Yun Miao shook her head: "There is nothing wrong with this calming incense."

Mu Qianqiu was surprised: "So what did Miss Yun mean just now? There's something wrong with the other scents in my study?"

"No." Yun Miao pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, "There's nothing wrong with that. Calming the mind is calming the mind, repelling insects is repelling insects, and fumigating is fumigating. But... mixing them together over time will cause problems."

"What Yun girl means is that this poison was made by me?" Mu Qianqiu was puzzled.

Yun Miao shook her head. "The chances of such a clever combination of different types of incense creating a unique poison are incredibly small. Furthermore, the toxicity of these mixed incense is very mild on its own. However, if a purple nightshade plant is planted in the Emperor's bedroom, the scent will become lethal over time."

Her eyes suddenly fell on the purple plant in the corner of the ground. The murderer was very meticulous.

Mu Qianqiu's expression was extremely ugly: "This purple nightshade was given to me by Concubine Li. What a great Western country, to actually place such a chess piece by my side. I knew it..."

"Your Majesty, please don't be so hasty to draw conclusions," Yun Miao said immediately. She didn't want to cause an innocent person to lose their head because of a few words. So she calmly analyzed, "Sometimes, the more exposed someone is, the more likely they are to be pushed out as a scapegoat. Your Majesty is so smart, he shouldn't have failed to think of this..."

Or rather, Mu Qianqiu was originally wary of Concubine Li's identity.

After all, she was a woman sent from the Western Country, and no emperor would confide in her.

"He knew that I had a new imperial physician and was afraid that something fishy would be discovered about my health, so he couldn't wait to summon you. How could you be innocent?" Mu Qianqiu asked Yun Miao, and he calmed down.

After all, no one would be able to remain calm when they first learn that there is a deadly danger lurking around them.

"I don't think so. It is precisely because of this that it proves that she didn't do it. After all, who would be so eager to put themselves in a position where they are most likely to be suspected and noticed?" Yun Miao raised an eyebrow.

Mu Qianqiu looked at her. "I know what you say makes sense, but this matter is of grave importance. You should understand that as an emperor, I would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go."

"I understand your concerns and worries, but I also know that you are a wise ruler. In a war, you would rather win a war beautifully than fall into the enemy's trap, right?" Yun Miao said calmly and firmly, "With Yun Miao here, the emperor's health will be absolutely fine."

Looking at the confident woman in front of him, Mu Qianqiu smiled, "Third Brother has good taste."

Yun Miao was caught off guard and failed.

Aren't we talking about business? Why are you suddenly talking about that bastard?

Seeing Yun Miao's embarrassed expression, Mu Qianqiu laughed heartily: "I thought you wouldn't be shy."

"Um... Your Majesty, Yun Miao will adjust the incense array in the imperial study. As long as a few main flavors are missing and the balance is out of control, it will not be a problem even if Zi Ye comes. Yun Miao can add a few more main medicines to make this poison into a real calming and beneficial fragrance. Your Majesty will take the antidote for a period of time, and your body will recover soon." She immediately changed the subject.

Mu Qianqiu was amused but was also amazed when he heard Yun Miao's words: "You are so young, but your medical skills are so superb. It is a great blessing for Tiansheng Country to have a girl like you!"

Previously, he felt sorry that Fulian Fengnu chose the second one.

Now it seems that the third brother has his own destiny.

But Jian Yinzhi had clearly said before that Fulian Fengnu was the destined one for the third brother, but now things are messed up.

Mu Qianqiu wasn't that pedantic; he treated all of his sons fairly and impartially. It was just that he felt guilty towards Mu Lansheng...

"Your Majesty, I am honored to receive your compliment. I do not deserve it." Yun Miao remained respectful throughout the entire process.

Now the emperor is just giving her money, so she still has to show some attitude.

As for Mulansheng, it should be impossible to guess that she has entered the palace, right?

…

Shangshu Mansion.

Yan Shasha had heard that the Third Prince's men were coming to the house and had dressed up specially. She hurried to the living room and saw her father sitting there with a serious expression on his face, holding a letter in his hand.

"Daddy, why are the people from the Third Prince's Mansion here? Why did they leave so soon?" She still had some expectations in her heart. Now the First Prince had just gotten married, and the Second Prince was also engaged to the Sixth Miss of Prime Minister Yun's Mansion.

So it should be the Third Prince's turn anyway. She was still thinking about the scene where the Third Prince would come to the Shangshu Mansion to propose marriage one day.

The Third Prince has never sent anyone to visit the Shangshu Mansion.

She was naturally excited.

But who knew that as soon as she came out, the man had already left.

Hearing his daughter's words, Yan Changzhou shook his head: "This damn Mo Bin, he's been idle all day, not only did he cheat his father, but now he's trying to cheat the entire Shangshu Mansion. Now he's even offended the Third Prince!"
