Xia Miaoyuan felt like his heart was about to jump out of his throat and was extremely nervous.
She and Xiao Wanyin held hands tightly, and both felt their palms were wet and cold. They were both so anxious that their palms were sweating profusely.
Yin Xizi took out a small ceramic bowl and put Princess Jin's nails and hair into it.
He took out another small pottery bowl and put the King of Jin's nails and hair into it.
Then she took out a tinder and lit both ceramic bowls.
A faint smell of burning instantly filled the air.
After the contents of the two ceramic bowls were burned to ashes, Yin Xizi took out a small bottle from the medicine box.
She poured the potion in the bottle into two ceramic bowls and stirred it gently with a small spoon.
"This is a potion I brewed myself, specifically for testing for chronic poisoning."
"The potion is colorless. After a quarter of an hour, if the ashes in this bowl turn blue, it means the owner of the hair and nail is poisoned."
"After a quarter of an hour, if the contents of the bowl do not change color, then it is not poisoned."
After listening to Yin Xizi's explanation, everyone gathered around the table and stared at the two ceramic bowls.
Time seemed to pass unusually slowly, and Prince Jin paced anxiously in the room.
In the inner room, Princess Jin's uneasy voice came out: "Prince!"
Prince Jin lifted the curtain and walked in. He sat down considerately beside the bed and held her hand.
"What did the doctor say? Why hasn't he given me the diagnosis after all this time?"
Prince Jin stroked his wife's hand and said, "Don't worry, Princess. You'll know the result in a moment."
At this time, it was already a quarter of an hour. Xia Miaoyuan and others looked into the pottery bowl and saw that the contents had turned blue.
[Ah! It really is poisoned!]
[Someone actually poisoned Uncle Ten and Aunt Ten! ]
Yin Xizi was stunned for a moment, then walked into the inner room holding the pottery bowl.
"What do you mean?" King Jin stood up excitedly.
The Crown Prince, the Crown Princess, Xia Miaoyuan, and Xiao Wanyin also followed in.
Yin Xizi's face darkened: "Prince, Princess, you really have been poisoned."
Princess Jin sat up excitedly, her oval face instantly reddening. "What? Poisoned! How could we be poisoned?"
"Child! How is the child? Is he gone?"
"Divine doctor, you must save our child! We have been married for more than ten years and finally had this child." Princess Jin's voice was already tearful when she said this.
Prince Jin was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead: "Divine Doctor, please save the princess and our child."
"Princess, Prince, please don't worry. The poisoning is not serious yet. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and the baby in your belly is still alive and well."
After hearing what Yin Xizi said, Princess Jin's emotions stabilized a little.
"Tenth Royal Aunt, don't worry. Aunt Yin is a great doctor of Great Xia. With her around, she will make sure you're fine." Xia Miaoyuan came over from the crowd and encouraged Princess Jin in a baby voice.
The prince hurriedly said, "Please ask Doctor Yin to treat the princess and the prince of Jin quickly. Use the best medicine."
Yin Xizi looked at Princess Jin calmly and said, "Don't worry, I'll prescribe an antidote right now. Please take the medicine according to this prescription for three days."
"I will give you two another injection to detoxify you."
"As long as you follow my instructions and avoid contact with the poison, the poison will be eliminated from your body in about ten days."
Prince Jin stood up, folded his hands, and pretended to salute Yin Xizi.
"Your Highness, what are you doing?" Yin Xizi hurriedly stopped Prince Jin.
"I'd like to thank Doctor Yin first. You are our benefactor!" King Jin was so excited that tears came to his eyes.
"Tenth Uncle, let Doctor Yin prescribe the medicine first!" The prince persuaded and led Yin Xizi to the outer room to prescribe the medicine.
Soon, the prescription was written out, and King Jin sent his confidant to follow Yin Xizi's apprentice to the clinic to get the medicine.
Yin Xizi walked into the inner room again and gave acupuncture to Prince Jin and Princess Jin one by one.
After Yin Xizi finished acupuncture, he patiently explained the precautions, "First, follow my prescription and take it for three days. After three days, I will come to the palace again to see how you two are doing and then make plans."
When she said this, she alertly lifted the door curtain and looked outside. After confirming that no one was outside, she continued, "Remember, you must quickly find the location of the poison."
"You were poisoned by a rare, slow-acting poison, either from food or drink, or something you come into contact with daily."
"Whether it's food or household items, they are things we come into contact with every day."
"Also, the person who poisoned you was very cautious. The amount of poison was small, so that your symptoms would not be obvious and you wouldn't care."
"If you find anything suspicious, or if you're not sure, feel free to ask me to check it out."
After giving these instructions, Yin Xizi said goodbye.
After seeing Yin Xizi off, everyone sat together, dismissed the servants, and discussed who had poisoned them.
Prince Jin and Princess Jin were so shocked by this incident that they couldn't recover for a while and their faces were still filled with panic.
Prince Jin and the princess sat next to each other, and Prince Jin held the princess's slender hands with heartache.
Among all the people, the prince was the most calm in the face of danger and had the most rational and clear mind.
The Crown Prince spoke first, "Tenth Uncle, Tenth Aunt, we must gather our strength and find the person who poisoned us."
"Think back, have there been any unusual behaviors among the people around you recently? Or have any suspicious people appeared around you?"
[Oh my, it has to be my lovely brother, the Crown Prince. He never panics in the face of difficulties and is so calm. He is worthy of being the crown prince of Daxia.]
Xia Miaoyuan couldn't help but interrupt: "Think about your chef, have you got any new chefs or new maids?"
Prince Jin murmured, "They live in the imperial manor outside, and the chefs came here from the palace. They are all old people now."
"Suspicious newcomer? It seems there isn't one!"
At this moment, the Crown Princess's eyes lit up: "That old woman! Aunt Tenth Emperor, do you still remember that old woman?"
Princess Jin's eyes froze.
"It's the old woman we rescued on the street two months ago!"
"Later, you took her to the imperial manor."
[Ahhh! There's such a thing? ]
[What other old women have you rescued on the street?] Xia Miaoyuan's eyes widened in shock.
Princess Jin suddenly realized, but then shook her head: "How could it be her?"
[Oh, don't think it's impossible. There are many impossible things.]
[The enemy is very cunning. They will deliberately send people who seem impossible to attack so that they won't be noticed.]
If the word "spy" is written all over a spy's face, he can no longer be called a spy.
When the Crown Prince and Prince Jin heard Xia Miaoyuan's thoughts, they were both shocked.
The prince asked, "Aunt Ten, what's going on with that old woman you're talking about? Tell us quickly."
"Whether it's her or not, tell me about her first, and then we can analyze it."
[Yeah, yeah, it's all thanks to my prince brother! ]
Princess Jin nodded: "Okay!"
