Chapter 224 Have you been bribed and are talking nonsense on purpose?
Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Zhang Chengyan finished washing up, looking radiant. He strode to Bai Wutong and lifted the two little guys up high. "Father is here!"
Bai Wutong lowered his eyes slightly, with an imperceptible disgust hidden in his eyes.
The one-year-old birthday banquet had just ended yesterday, and she announced that she was pregnant, but the emperor couldn't wait to have sex with Wen Chuyun in broad daylight. This behavior really made her feel disgusted.
But she knew in her heart that she could only keep these words in her heart.
In the harem, monopolizing the emperor is a big taboo against palace rules.
According to the rules, the emperor is the object of everyone's service, not to mention that Wen Chuyun was pregnant with the dragon heir before.
Wen Chuyun's face didn't heal earlier or later, but it recovered at this moment!
Thinking of this, Bai Wutong's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
The scar on Wen Chuyun's face is so obvious. What kind of magic medicine can make it heal without any trace in just over a month?
"Your Majesty, I have something to say, but I don't know whether I should say it or not."
"You can tell me what you want to say." Zhang Chengyan said as he picked up an exquisite jade pendant and gently placed it on Zhang Yunhe's little hand. "I was so busy praying on the day of the first birthday banquet that I forgot about the Zhou ceremony. Let's pick a good day and make it up to them. Let's see what my prince will grab."
Yesterday, there were all kinds of auspicious signs, and she announced that she was pregnant, so she really forgot about the important event of the one-year-old baby's birth.
Bai Wutong calmed down and said, "Your Majesty, what I am going to say next is absolutely not my intention to compete with Concubine Wen for your favor. I am just really confused. Concubine Wen's face was so badly injured before, how could she recover so quickly? If there is such a magical medicine, why have I never heard of it in my many years in the palace? It is said that medicine is three-quarters poisonous. For such a powerful medicine, the toxicity must not be underestimated, right?"
Zhang Chengyan's movements suddenly stopped, and the jade pendant in his hand that was teasing the child also stopped in mid-air.
Bai Wutong's words were well-reasoned and made him fall into deep thought.
Seeing that the emperor seemed to be wavering, Bai Wutong took advantage of the situation and said, "Your Majesty, how about calling the imperial physician and asking him about this in detail?"
"Okay, let's do as you say. Wang Decai, go and summon a few imperial doctors to the palace!"
Not long after, two imperial doctors hurried over.
These two imperial physicians were well-versed in various types of external medicines and were quite famous in the palace.
"Your humble servant pays homage to His Majesty and His Majesty Concubine Zhao." The two of them knelt down and saluted respectfully.
Bai Wutong had a gentle smile on her lips. "Please stand up, my lords. I have something to ask you. I heard that Concubine Wen's face was healed in just over a month. It is said that she used some kind of magic medicine. I wonder if our Darong country has such a magic medicine?"
The older doctor frowned slightly, thought for a moment and replied, "There is absolutely no such medicine in Darong. It must have come from the Western Regions. Western medicine uses bold ingredients without regard for consequences, only seeking quick results without regard for the damage to the body, so it has such miraculous effects. The medicine of our Darong country emphasizes balance and gentleness, and focuses on reducing the toxicity of the medicine."
Bai Wutong nodded with satisfaction and asked, "So, you mean that the medicine used by Concubine Wen is likely to be poisonous?"
"This... I dare not make any rash conclusion. However, such a serious scar can be cured in just over a month. I have been practicing medicine for many years and have never heard of it. According to my speculation, it must be poisonous." The imperial physician spoke cautiously and did not dare to speak too confidently.
At this time, the younger imperial physician said bluntly, "It's not possible, it must be poisonous! The stronger the drug, the more toxic it is, and the greater the damage to the body. Many drugs used to repair scars contain a lot of toxic ingredients. I have seen several strong drugs before, some of which can cause women to be infertile for life, and some of which can make people itch all over their bodies in the middle of the night and cause unbearable pain. As for what sequelae Madam Wen will have after using this drug, a detailed examination is needed to determine."
"If we can get the medicine used by Concubine Wen, can the two imperial doctors accurately determine the medicinal ingredients and toxicity? After all, Concubine Wen is close to the emperor and will serve him in the future. If the medicine is really poisonous and affects the emperor's body, it will be troublesome."
Bai Wutong spoke slowly and glanced at Zhang Chengyan from the corner of his eye. As expected, his face looked very ugly.
"Reporting to Her Majesty, if I can get the medicine, I will be able to carefully identify the medicinal ingredients and determine the toxicity."
"Okay." Bai Wutong took Zhang Chengyan's arm affectionately and said in a tender voice, "Your Majesty, you will continue to favor Concubine Wen in the future. In my opinion, this matter must be thoroughly investigated to avoid threatening your health. Your Majesty, what do you think?"
"Well, you are absolutely right." Zhang Chengyan naturally cared about his own health, "Go, ask Concubine Wen to come over immediately."
Half an hour later.
Wen Chuyun walked into the Yangxin Palace gracefully.
Originally, she had an expectant smile on her face, and she thought that the emperor was still not satisfied and summoned her to continue his affection.
After all, Bai Wutong is pregnant, and there are only a few concubines who can serve the emperor now. She thinks she is the emperor's first choice.
But as soon as she stepped into the hall and saw Bai Wutong there, her smile froze instantly.
Zhang Chengyan looked stern, "Princess Wen, take out the magic medicine you used and have the imperial physician examine it to see what ingredients are in it and whether it is toxic."
"Your Majesty!" Wen Chuyun was shocked when he heard this, and he was completely panicked.
The side effects of that magic medicine are extremely horrible. Not only will it kill people, but it will also cover the entire body in blood. Once this is exposed, the consequences will be disastrous.
She forced herself to remain calm, "I...I have run out of the magic medicine."
"Has it been used up? The box containing the magic medicine should still be there, right?"
Wen Chuyun lowered her head, not daring to look directly into Zhang Chengyan's eyes, "Your Majesty, after I used up the magic medicine, I threw the box away without leaving anything behind."
She knelt on the ground with a plop. "Your Majesty, I swear to heaven that the magic medicine is absolutely not poisonous. You must believe me!"
Bai Wutong raised his lips slightly, and said slowly, "No toxicity? Then how can the drug be so effective? Sister Wenpin, there are some things you cannot hide. You still have to serve the emperor in the future. If the emperor is poisoned because of you, it is a crime of deceiving the emperor and the whole family will be executed! How about this, since the magic medicine is gone, let the imperial physician take your pulse to see if there is any residual toxin in your body."
Wen Chuyun was extremely reluctant, but he had no choice but to agree to it under the watchful eyes of everyone.
The imperial physician placed his fingers on Wen Chuyun's wrist and began to take his pulse carefully.
As time went by, the imperial physician's brows furrowed more and more, and his expression became more and more serious.
After a moment, he raised his head and said, "Madam Wen, the magic medicine you used is extremely toxic and cold. Long-term use may hinder your pregnancy."
"That's impossible!" Wen Chuyun lost control of his emotions when he heard this, and retorted harshly, "The person who sent me the magic medicine clearly said that this medicine has no effect on conceiving a dragon heir. Have you been bribed by someone to deliberately talk nonsense here?"
