"It's okay. The emperor won't be able to take care of us right now. We can just take a look from afar."
“My Queen, My Queen!!”
Xi Zhaoyi insisted on doing so, and Qiancao had no choice but to follow her.
Huayang Palace was in chaos at this time.
As soon as the guard at the gate heard that Fu Xiyu was not well, he quickly sent someone to the Imperial Hospital to invite the imperial physician. The imperial physician who came was Qin Zhaochuan.
After drinking a few bowls of concentrated salt water, he immediately vomited out everything he had eaten at noon.
He stepped forward anxiously: "How is the concubine?"
It was Qin Zhaochuan's first time to meet the emperor, and it was in such an occasion. Although he was a little flustered, he spoke calmly.
"In reply to the emperor, the queen was poisoned by arsenic, but fortunately, she didn't take much and has now vomited it all out. It hasn't hurt her internal organs. After taking a few doses of detoxifying medicine, she will be fine."
Zhao Yuancheng sighed deeply, looked at Fu Qianyu's pale face, and asked solemnly, "How did arsenic get into Huayang Palace? How did you deal with it?"

Zhao Yuancheng was immediately furious and ordered Zhu Yu coldly: "Bring the steward of the Imperial Food Bureau here. I want to see who dares to be so bold in the harem."
Zhu Yu replied, "When I heard something happened to the Empress, I immediately ordered someone to go to the Imperial Food Bureau to question her. Aunt Zhou said that only Concubine Wan and Concubine Zhaoyi had been there today, but they had an argument, so Concubine Wan left quickly. Only Concubine Zhaoyi stayed for quite a while."
As soon as Xi Zhaoyi came in, she heard everything Zhu Yu said word for word. Her face changed immediately and she said in surprise, "It's none of my business. I didn't do anything!"
