Chapter 13: Loyal Secret Guard vs. Romantic Empress (13)



"I dare not, but Chang Xu was poisoned after leaving the Imperial Heaven Palace. Now that there is evidence, I beg Your Majesty to give me an explanation!"

Although General Yan did not directly say that Jiang Jingyu was the one who poisoned him, the implication of his words had already pointed the finger at the Yutian Palace.

Yan Changxu was a kind person. He had never had any grudges with anyone since he was a child. Yesterday, apart from the General's Mansion, he had only been to the Yutian Palace.

Therefore, apart from the people from Yutian Palace, General Yan really couldn't think of who else would poison Yan Changxu.

Now, all possibilities pointed to the Imperial Palace. If General Yan said that no one had given instructions, he would not believe it. And there was only one person in the entire Imperial Palace who could command the palace servants...

In addition, Jiang Jingyu got angry last night and drove out all the people serving in the Yutian Palace. It would be easy for General Yan to associate these two things together.

As the saying goes, when the emperor is angry, corpses are everywhere.

It is not impossible that Your Majesty may bring harm to innocent people in his rage, and Yan Changxu happens to be that innocent fish.

Combined with the poison ingredients extracted from Yan Changxu's blood by the court physician, General Yan was even more certain that Jiang Jingyu was the mastermind behind the incident!

"Witnesses and evidence?"

Jiang Jingyu raised an eyebrow and said, "It seems that Lord Yan has come prepared today. If that's the case, then please bring up all the witnesses and evidence. If the witnesses and evidence can indicate that the poison in Chang Xu's body came from the Yutian Palace, I will naturally give Lord Yan an explanation."

Jiang Jingyu has nothing to fear from others as she is upright. Yan Changxu's sudden poisoning is nothing more than someone trying to sow discord between the monarch and her subjects. She wants to see how these so-called witnesses and evidence can prove that it was the work of the Yutian Palace.

"The witnesses and evidence are outside the palace now. Your Majesty, please summon them!"

General Yan clasped his hands together and saluted Jiang Jingyu who was sitting in a high position. He caught a glimpse of Ming You who was standing behind Jiang Jingyu and a look of unnaturalness flashed across his face.

The humiliation of last night seems still fresh in my mind.

However, General Yan didn't care about these things at the moment. She was determined to seek justice for her child. She looked straight at Jiang Jingyu sitting on the dragon throne, waiting for her to order the summoning of witnesses.

"Xuan."

Jiang Jingyu flicked her wide sleeves slightly and uttered a word from her throat.

As soon as he finished speaking, a palace servant hurriedly walked out of Longyuan Palace.

As everyone waited anxiously, a servant from the general's mansion came in carrying Yan Changxu, who was lying unconscious on a wooden frame.

The moment the servant passed by the crowd, everyone subconsciously looked at Yan Changxu on the wooden rack, and in an instant, Yan Changxu's purple face came into everyone's sight.

Everyone's pupils shrank. Anyone could tell from the look on Young Master Yan's face that he had been poisoned!

Yan Changxu was carried by the servants to the center of the hall and finally stopped beside General Yan.

"I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

"Chang Xu, Chang Xu, can you open your eyes and look at your mother?"

After seeing the unconscious Yan Changxu, General Yan became instantly agitated. If he had to seek justice for Yan Changxu, General Yan would never let Yan Changxu, who was poisoned, run back and forth.

Jiang Jingyu also saw Yan Changxu's current situation clearly. She frowned and said in a deep voice, "Come here, call Dean Zhang over."

"yes!"

Yan Changxu is now severely poisoned. For his safety, Jiang Jingyu did not continue to interrogate the so-called witnesses and evidence, but directly ordered someone to summon the head of the Imperial Hospital to come and examine Yan Changxu.

A quarter of an hour later, Dean Zhang appeared in Longyuan Hall carrying a medicine box and walked straight to the center of the hall.

"Your humble servant pays respect to His Majesty!"

"No need to be so polite, Dean Zhang. Please check Chang Xu's body quickly."

"yes!"

Dean Zhang stood up and walked over to Yan Changxu. General Yan grabbed her arm and said, "Dean Zhang, please, please save Changxu!"

"Don't worry, General Yan, I will do my best."

Dean Zhang gave General Yan a soothing look, then lifted Yan Changxu's wrist to feel his pulse.

In the huge Longyuan Palace, one could hear a pin drop. Everyone stared at Dean Zhang in front of them and held their breath unconsciously.

The moment he felt Yan Changxu's pulse, Dean Zhang's brows gradually knitted together and his expression became heavy.

"how?"
