"This is Yun'er's favorite pastry. They came here for Yun'er. Who is so cruel as to want to kill Yun'er?" The virtuous concubine looked at King Wu of Zhou with red eyes and a touching look.
"Your Majesty, you must make the decision for Yun'er."
The Empress said, "Xianfei, please be patient. His Majesty will uncover the true culprit and will not let him go unpunished."
Seeing her son hadn't woken up for a long time, Concubine Xian was a little worried. "Doctor Zhang, why has my son been unconscious for so long?"
Imperial Physician Zhang wasn't quite sure why, and he couldn't help but look at Bei Yutang.
Bei Yutang said, "The Eighth Prince was poisoned more severely than the Emperor. Even after the poison was forced out, he endured more than the Emperor, so naturally he wouldn't wake up as quickly as the Emperor."
"Don't worry, Concubine Xian. He will wake up soon."
With Bei Yutang's assurance, Concubine Xian's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally calmed down a little.
Commander Zhang replied, "The poison was found on the Eighth Prince's table. Your Majesty has none."
"Search more carefully."
Imperial Physician Zhang and others carefully checked all the food and wine again, but still found no poison.
King Wu of Zhou was very dissatisfied with this result.
If he still can't find it, what if the other party wants to kill him next time? His life will be in danger.
"Waste." King Wu of Zhou was furious.
Imperial Physician Zhang and Commander Zhang were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word.
Prince Yu, who had been silent the whole time, came out and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you ask Madam Mu, who is known for her medical skills, to investigate. If Imperial Physician Zhang can't find it, perhaps she can."
Chu Yu frowned slightly when he heard Prince Yu's words.
Prince Yu wanted to involve Madam Mu and her son in this matter.
Chu Yu was thinking about how to help them get rid of this trouble, but King Wu of Zhou had already said, "Investigate it."
King Wu of Zhou had spoken, and Bei Yutang took the order and began to search the entire hall.
Seeing that she didn't check the emperor's position first, Imperial Physician Zhang couldn't help but ask, "Why did Madam Mu check other foods first?"
After knowing that Bei Yutang was Mu Xiangjun, Imperial Physician Zhang was very convinced of her.
"This poison may not have been ingested; it could have been inflicted by other means. Judging from the extent of the poisoning, it likely wasn't long ago, and the amount was small. Therefore, it's unlikely to be something used by the Emperor. If it were, the Emperor's level of poisoning would be similar to that of the Eighth Prince."
Everyone thought Bei Yutang's words made sense.
The gazes of King Wu of Zhou and others followed her movements.
After a cup of tea, Bei Yutang finished checking all the things and finally walked to the throne. After looking carefully, his eyes showed contemplation.
No one dared to disturb her thoughts, and everyone was waiting.
King Wu of Zhou finally asked, "Have you found anything?"
Bei Yutang walked down from the throne, "I have an idea."
"When was I poisoned?"
Everyone is fine, but he is the only one who is in trouble. This matter must be investigated thoroughly.
"There's nothing wrong with what Your Majesty has consumed. But..." Bei Yutang paused, then continued, "The poison Your Majesty was poisoned with is called Zui Hua Hong. It's colorless and odorless, making it difficult for ordinary people to detect. A single cup of tea will kill a victim."
"The Eighth Prince's prize was the highest bonus after the final product was made. Your Majesty's prize is different from the Eighth Prince's. It is the highest bonus produced by the subsequent mutation of the substance."
