Lin Qingtang was originally very happy when she saw Ye Jinyun holding the child and the child recognized his mother in seconds. However, her mouth was faster than her brain and she said some incoherent words, which made her quite embarrassed.
Ye Jinyun looked at her with amusement, but did not expose what she was about to say. Coincidentally, at this time Lin Dingyao also brought his miracle doctor friend to give Mo Qiyuan acupuncture.
"Your Highness Lin Dingyao greets the Empress."
"General Lin, there's no need to be so polite. This isn't the palace. General Lin, just treat me as your junior."
Lin Dingyao originally thought that Ye Jinyun was like the other concubines in the harem. She felt that her body was extremely precious and as a subject, she had to be respectful to her.
But he didn't expect her to be so easy-going. No wonder his daughter could become friends with her, and the emperor favored her alone. Moreover, she even sacrificed herself to block the arrow for her son, which is truly admirable.
"Your Majesty, etiquette cannot be abandoned. Please don't embarrass me."
Ye Jinyun nodded and said nothing more. She looked at the middle-aged man behind Lin Dingyao, who had an immortal look and the temperament of a cultivator in a novel.
"Your Majesty, this is my old friend, Dr. Cui Ya."
Ye Jinyun smiled and said to him, "Thank you for taking the trouble to treat the emperor during this period of time, Doctor Cui."
Cui Ya stroked his beardless chin and shook his head:
"I am so ashamed, Your Majesty. I am so incompetent that I cannot heal the Emperor. Otherwise, the Emperor would not be in such a state now."
When Lin Dingyao heard this, he frowned and asked him, "Old Cui, could it be that there's a reply from Southern Xinjiang?"
Cui Ya nodded solemnly:
"They said that based on the pulse readings I provided and the Emperor's reaction, they don't know how to cure this poison. Furthermore, it likely didn't come from their Southern Border. It's very likely cultivated by the Poison Saint of Yaowang Valley in Northern Rong. Although he's called the Poison Saint, he's not only interested in toxicology but also in studying poisons."
Everyone in the room fell silent upon hearing this, but Ye Jinyun felt more certain. She looked at Cui Ya and said, "Master Cui, I might know how to cure this poison."
Cui Ya was surprised. "Is what the Queen said true? Even the people who are good at raising Gu insects in southern Xinjiang don't know the solution to this Gu. How do you know it?"
Ye Jinyun looked at him and said, "I can't say for sure right now. I need to see someone first before I can confirm."
…
A quarter of an hour later
Ye Jinyun looked at the woman who was tied up and dying on the ground and said in disbelief:
"It's really exactly the same. Helian Rongxia really put a lot of thought into it."
The woman on the ground had her eyes closed. She thought that someone close to Mo Qiyuan was coming to ask her how to remove the poison from Mo Qiyuan's body.
But she didn't expect to hear a woman's voice. Although the woman's voice was a little weak, she still recognized it immediately.
She opened her eyes instantly, and saw a woman who looked almost identical to her in front of her:
"It's you. You actually came back from the king's side."
Ye Jinyun smiled at her and said, "Indeed, it is indeed the case as you can see."
The woman stared at her: "How did you come back? How could the king let you go? Isn't he..."
Ye Jinyun reached out to stop her from saying:
"Don't worry about how I got back. Anyway, I'm standing in front of you now. I didn't come here to tell you this. I have something I want to confirm with you."
The woman looked at her warily. She had already guessed what the woman the king loved wanted to say.
Sure enough, she heard Ye Jinyun ask her:
"Is the Gu in my husband's body the one your king personally raised last year specifically for him?"
When the woman heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
How could she know? She had only heard it from Madam Yan Ji when she gave the Gu to her.
In fact, if this Gu was used on an ordinary person, it might not be difficult to cure it. However, Madam Yan Ji said that if it was used on the Emperor of Da Qi, the only person who could cure it was the Queen of Da Qi. Therefore, this Gu was raised by the king specifically to target the Emperor of Da Qi.
Ye Jinyun didn't need her to answer, just looking at her eyes, he knew it was true, so he said:
"Not only do I know what this Gu is, I also know that only I can cure it, so there's no need to try to hide it from me."
The woman was even more shocked when she heard this. She actually knew that only she could cure the poison, so why did she come to ask her?
Ye Jinyun looked at her, knowing what she was thinking, and then seemed to explain to her:
"Although I know that I am the only one who can remove this poison, I don't know what conditions are required or how to remove it. That's why I came here to ask you how I can draw it out of my husband's body."
The woman sneered: "Do you think I will tell you?"
Ye Jinyun smiled when he heard this and stared into her eyes:
"You will, because you want to go back to Helian Rongxia."
"you!"
The woman couldn't believe it. How could the Queen of Da Qi know everything? She even knew her thoughts.
In fact, Ye Jinyun had no idea what she was thinking. She was just gambling that this substitute also had feelings for Helian Rongxia.
When she was chatting with Wanyu in Beirong, she learned that all the women in Beirong admired Helian Rongxia, including Wanyu.
At that time, Ye Jinyun got goosebumps all over his body. He didn't know why these beautiful women from Beirong would be so fond of such a cold-blooded and ruthless pervert.
She was saying that every time Helian Rongxia appeared in front of the maids, although they were afraid, they couldn't help but blush and their hearts beat fast.
If Helian Rongxia could say something gentle to any maid, the maid would stay there in fascination for a long time. That's why Ye Jinyun felt that no one in the Beirong Palace, from the masters to the servants, was normal.
"So, tell me how to remove this poison, and I'll let you go back to Beirong. Then you can return to Helian Rongxia and become his concubine every day."
In fact, Ye Jinyun was just painting a rosy picture for her. How could she be sure that Helian Rongxia would let this woman be her concubine? But if she didn't describe the woman's desire in a more beautiful way, how could she be willing to say it?
Sure enough, the woman was moved when she heard this.
She originally thought that she would die without a doubt, but she didn't expect that the Queen of Da Qi would be willing to let her go.
"However, if I am to let you return to Beirong, I must keep this human skin mask of yours. Otherwise, if someone uninformed finds out, it will ruin my reputation as the Queen of Daqi. I bet you don't want to be kept by your king as a substitute with a face that looks exactly like mine."
Of course, women don't want to be treated as substitutes. There is no woman who doesn't want the person she loves to see her instead of others.
Even during those days when she was practicing in the palace, the king always looked at her but was actually looking at someone else. Although she was happy, she felt a dull pain in her heart.
So she hesitated for a while, then looked at Ye Jinyun and said, "Okay, I'll tell you."
