Concubine Li steadied herself and apologized to the Emperor, Empress, and Concubine De:
"I'm sorry to have worried the Emperor and His Majesty, thank you for your concern, Sister Defei.
I just felt dizzy for a while, but I feel much better now. "
The emperor frowned, "What's going on?"
Concubine Li shook her head, "Maybe I just stared at the decoction and squatted for too long..."
Jun Baozhu, who was in the Queen's arms, heard a voice in her heart:
[Mother? What happened to Mother? ]
[What’s wrong with my mother? I’m so worried! I want my mother! ]
The queen looked at Jun Baozhu in her arms and quickly ordered, "Hurry up and let the doctor take a look, otherwise you see! Baozhu is worried."
Although Concubine Li felt that the dizziness had passed...
But it was hard to refuse the queen’s kindness.
The judge asked the female doctor to help Concubine Li to diagnose her. After a long time of diagnosis, the female doctor could not figure out the reason...
After seeking the consent of the Emperor and Empress, the judge felt Concubine Li's pulse through the handkerchief and also showed a puzzled expression.
"What's going on?"
The emperor asked worriedly.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Li's pulse is unstable and cannot be diagnosed for the time being."
The judge then asked another imperial physician who was proficient in pulse diagnosis to take Concubine Li's pulse.
The other party also started to show the same surprised expression.
Concubine Li retracted her wrist and comforted everyone, "It's okay, judge and doctor, don't worry, maybe she is just tired for a while...
I never felt sick before, and my mother took good care of me, so I was in good health."
The judge and the imperial physician looked at Concubine Li with gratitude.
After hearing what Concubine Li said, the emperor thought that at least the judge and the imperial physician did not say anything serious or dangerous, so he did not investigate further for the time being.
The Queen, as someone who had also experienced childbirth, was still a little worried.
The Tenth Prince's fever had completely subsided, and the imperial doctors wrote a new prescription. Concubine Li went back to get the medicine herself, watched the people boil it, and brought it to the Tenth Prince...
The Emperor and Empress freed up their hands and asked the Fourth Prince to go and see the results of the treatment of the Crown Prince and the Ninth Prince.
The Crown Prince and the Ninth Prince came back together to report the situation.
If the emperor had not seen that the queen was holding Jun Baozhu in her arms, he would have almost smashed the teacup!
“Ahem…”
The emperor was so angry that his chest hurt.
The entire royal family was being played around by others and was in danger at any time due to the delay in treatment.
If it weren't for the medicinal herbs stored in Concubine Li's palace today, would Xiao Shi...
"Where are they?"
The emperor was furious.
Perhaps, his previous methods were not enough to deter...
This bunch of treacherous officials are so lawless!
"His Majesty......"
The Queen reminded him gently, worried that the Emperor might make a wrong judgment due to his anger.
"For now, let's check if there are any clues..."
The other party is so vigilant, it will be difficult to catch him...
But if it's too late, the chances are even slimmer.
The emperor calmed down a bit and ordered the second prince, "Second Prince, take the people from the Palace Front Department and impose martial law in the imperial city!
Guard the entrance to the palace, only people can enter but not leave."
Looking at Li Quaner, Li Quaner was kneeling far away.
The Queen was worried that the Emperor would not be able to issue orders, so she prepared to leave with Jun Baozhu in her arms...
Suddenly, I heard the tender and innocent voice in my arms again.
While the emperor was getting angry and making arrangements, Jun Baozhu had already eaten the new melon from the mouth of the Fire Phoenix.
The Queen Mother held the little princess without moving, and Li Quan'er did not dare to get close.
[What? Two herbal medicine stores in Beijing closed down immediately? ]
[How fast are they doing this? Did the news from the palace spread out so quickly? ]
[Isn't that stupid? Even if Father investigates quickly, he won't find them right away, right? ]
[Such a sudden move now, isn't it a case of trying to cover up one's own guilt? ]
[They really have good means. Local areas pay tribute to them with authentic medicinal materials, and the Imperial Hospital resells these medicinal materials to the shops and exchanges them for cash...]
[The inferior and expired medicinal materials were repackaged and disguised, and flowed into the palace through the Imperial Hospital...]
[Wow! It’s really an assembly line operation! It has become an industry.]
[It fills up their purses, but hurts the stomachs of the Emperor, the Empress, the concubines, and the princes...]
Jun Baozhu was indignant, and when the emperor heard it, his face was so furious that a brief calm before the storm appeared.
Seeing that Jun Baozhu was no longer making any sound, the Queen held Jun Baozhu and moved away. The Emperor immediately gave an order and Li Quaner hurried forward.
The prince personally conducted a thorough investigation into the palace gate guards and those who were connected with the Shang Pharmacy.
Li Quaner led a team to inspect the pharmacy in the capital that was suddenly closed and temporarily closed the air vents out of the city.
When everyone left, Concubine Li suddenly turned around and looked towards the Tenth Prince's palace.
