Chapter 306 Poison?

Although the identity of the beggar is questionable, and the means of death are somewhat strange, the princess still remembered another important thing.

"Didn't the beggar have a letter in his hand? Bring the letter over."

Everyone then remembered that the letter seemed to contain the truth about the plague.

"I want to see who is deliberately making a mystery."

Knowing the truth, he didn't quickly go to the palace to report to the emperor, but even used the beggar's body to deliver the message. I have to say, the person behind this is really arrogant.

Upon hearing this, the guard hurriedly picked up the letter in the beggar's hand with a rag and handed it to the princess.

The shape of the letter in the beggar's hand was also very strange. It was obvious that the person behind him put the letter in the beggar's hand after the beggar had died.

"Grandma, be careful. There may be something fishy about this envelope."

Although the person behind the scenes should not be stupid enough to apply poison on the envelope, it is good to be more careful.

"No problem, wrap it with this handkerchief and let's all read it together."

The princess opened the envelope with a serious expression and found that there were only a few words on the letter.

But after reading these few words, the princess's expression changed drastically.

Even Pei Xuanyi frowned, realizing that something seemed amiss.

"Hey, what's going on?"

Unexpectedly, it was An Yuesheng who spoke first. He was very terrified and shouted loudly.

Seeing that An Yuesheng had also seen the letter, the princess did not want to hide it and handed the letter to Dr. Sun and Lin Qingye.

In fact, the two of them also wanted to know what was written in the letter. After all, the source of the plague... they also knew at this time that it was not a plague, but a disease caused by boa constrictors.

Unexpectedly, after reading the letter, Doctor Sun's face turned pale.

The letter said that this was not a plague, but someone was plotting against the people in the palace.

It seemed that the person who was plotting against the people was the one who sent the letter, and there was a sentence in the letter from the person who was plotting against the people.

"She is not a princess but she is treated like a princess."

This sentence looked very strange, and everyone had no idea for a while. But after Pei Xuanyi heard this, he immediately thought of Xixi who was sleeping soundly in the palace.

Could this incident be aimed at Xixi?

Pei Xuanyi's eyes were deep. I didn't expect that someone would want to harm little Xixi... No matter who it is, if they want to hurt little Xixi, they must be prepared to pay a corresponding price!

However, this method, and the purpose of the person behind it...

Pei Xuanyi looked at Anyueya with a frown.

In addition to Pei Xuanyi, the people outside the palace gate also had their own thoughts in their hearts.

The panic on the face of Dr. Sun was the most obvious. If the others were not busy thinking and had no time to care about him, Dr. Sun might even be mistaken for the mastermind.

Lin Qing's face was normal. Seeing Dr. Sun so nervous that his lips were a little pale, she couldn't help but frown.

She thought to herself, what is coming will come, and it can't be hidden. I just hope that Dr. Sun can make plans.

"Huh? The letter said that this is not a plague, but a parasite poison. What is a parasite poison?"

Anyueya asked with innocent eyes and a puzzled look.

If An Yuesheng hadn't known that everything behind this was done by her, he would have really been fooled by her.

However, in front of outsiders, they had a very good relationship as siblings, so An Yuesheng answered patiently.

"The insect was a murderous creature that was lost a long time ago. I didn't expect it to reappear in the palace this time. I don't know who is so cruel."

The eldest princess shook her head and tore up the letter in public.

"I don't know who sent this letter, and the content of this letter may not be true. In my opinion, it is estimated that someone played a prank."

The insect has disappeared for so many years, and no one has ever heard of anyone dying from the poison of the insect in these years.

Moreover, Lin Qingye and Doctor Sun have already confirmed that this is a plague. The princess thought that there was no need to believe what was said in the letter at this moment, and it might even cause panic.

"Since the imperial doctors in the palace have already diagnosed that this is a plague, then this letter..."

Before the princess finished speaking, she was interrupted by Lin Qingye.

Under the extremely horrified expression of Doctor Sun, Lin Qingye said to the princess very calmly.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid what is said in this letter is correct."

Even someone as knowledgeable as the princess found it hard to believe at this time.

"What did you say?"

Lin Qingye did not deny his words, but repeated them to the princess.

"Reporting to Her Royal Highness, this time it is not plague, but entomophagy. The person who wrote the letter should be the one who poisoned the entomophagy."

Everyone else fell into silence, and Doctor Sun knelt down outside the palace gate. With a head of white hair, he looked very pitiful.

After a long while, the princess finally spoke.

"Lin Qingye, do you know what you are talking about now?"

The princess looked at Lin Qingye, who had a calm expression, and questioned.

"If what you are saying now is not a lie, do you know that the plague you diagnosed before was a mistake of deceiving the emperor?"

Lin Qingye nodded and answered very calmly.

"I know. But if I don't say it this time, I will feel uneasy."

The princess understood that what Lin Qingye said was not a lie. Even if you only look at Doctor Sun's performance, you can see it.

"Doctor Sun, you and Lin Qingye were the ones who judged that this was a plague. Why are you now saying it was caused by insects?"

The princess' voice was a little dignified. Doctor Sun was already panicking, and now he couldn't bear it under the interrogation. He finally didn't have any secrets and told everything.

"I am guilty."

Doctor Sun spoke, his tone full of regret, and his voice was a little hoarse.

Imperial Physician Sun indeed regarded Lin Qingye as his apprentice. He thought that he had already taken half a step towards death, while Lin Qingye still had plenty of opportunities. It would be a pity if such a wonderful and charming female doctor like Lin Qingye ended her medical career here.

So, he closed his eyes and took all the blame on himself.

"At that time, I was the first to diagnose the plague, but I couldn't say anything, so I asked Qingye to come forward and explain that it was a plague. Later, Qingye discovered that it was a poison caused by mosquitoes. I was so scared that I didn't dare to explain it to Your Majesty, so I stopped Qingye and forced her not to expose it."

Lin Qingye frowned and opened her mouth to say something, but saw the pleading eyes of Imperial Physician Sun.

She suddenly remembered that just now, when Dr. Sun came out of the Imperial Hospital, he had told her:

"If one day our actions are discovered, I will do my best to protect you. And you will continue to live with my unique skills."
