Hearing Su Xi's words, the emperor nodded calmly: "Then I want to see what this man is capable of!"

The emperor was the first to taste the pigeon soup.

It’s salty, fresh and refreshing, and the medicinal herbs in it dilute the greasiness. The aftertaste is more fragrant than the ordinary pigeon soup.

The emperor couldn't help himself and drank two more sips.

"This chef is really good. The soup is good. Let me see how the dish is..."

It was a dish of stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots, garnished with some purple leaves unlike the usual dish.

The emperor picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in his mouth. He felt it was fresh again.

"The bamboo shoots are crisp, the meat is tender, and the leaves have a faint fragrance, like bamboo leaves. Today's dishes are really well made. Enjoy!"

The emperor was very pleased, and it was easy for the people under him to work.

It was not until this moment that Suxi's heart finally settled down.

Actually, there is no new chef here.

It was just an excuse made up to get the emperor to eat the medicinal food.

The chefs in the imperial kitchen have always been quite capable, but they always do things that way in order to follow the rules and avoid making mistakes.

Now that it has been done like this, the emperor feels more excited and the chefs in the imperial kitchen receive more rewards.

Zhao Ji and his men had an additional way to secretly regulate the emperor's health.

It’s a win-win situation.

Unconsciously, the emperor has gotten used to the frequent appearance of new and exotic dishes these days.

Moreover, in the past few days, Su Xi has found various excuses to stop the emperor from going to the harem to favor the concubines.

So during this period of time, the emperor vaguely felt that his health was getting better and better.

However, he always attributed the credit to Master Zhang.

"It seems that Master Zhang is really capable. I feel that my health is getting better and better!"

"According to the date, it's time to take the fourth pill. I'm going to take a bath and change clothes tonight. Please prepare some tea for me. I'm going to take it in the evening."

The chief eunuch Su Xi seemed calm, but in fact he had already sent someone to pass the news to Zhao Ji.

Before they made this plan, they had already imagined that if the emperor took Master Zhang's medicine and it didn't work, he would definitely call Master Zhang to question him.

If Master Zhang asked to check the pills, their plan would be ruined and they would be 100% beheaded.

That's why they are so eager to take care of the emperor's health during this period.

This is so that at least the emperor won’t feel anything is wrong after taking a pill.

After all, the foundation is good, so taking nourishing pills will definitely be effective.

At night, after the emperor took the pills, he felt hot all over, as if he was lying in a warm hot spring, and felt very comfortable.

It was because of sweating for a while, and it was precisely because of this period of sweating that the emperor decided not to go to the harem tonight.

After all, I had such a refreshing sweat all over my body that I just wanted to sleep.

That night, Zhao Jisuxi and the three heads of the dean breathed a sigh of relief and slept well.

The next day, Zhao Ji intentionally added some nutritious foods such as deer blood and abalone to the emperor's diet.

These things are not as good as the strong medicines given by Master Zhang, but at least they do not harm the emperor's body and can still make the emperor feel something.

In addition, in order to prepare for the event, a little secret medicine was added to the ginseng soup that the emperor was going to drink. As a result, the emperor was in high spirits that night, just like an ordinary person who had taken elixir.

"The emperor has no suspicions now. After taking his pulse several times, what do you think of his health?"

Zhao Ji and the other two gathered in a remote palace in the imperial palace.

The dean wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He hardly dared to close his eyes and sleep during this period of time. He was really doing something that could cost him his life.

This is a crime of deceiving the emperor.

But fortunately, everything is going well now.

"Yesterday I went to check the emperor's pulse and found it to be much stronger than before. If he continues to take care of himself like this, his health will gradually improve. At least he can make up for the loss from taking the poisonous pills during this period!"

When the chief eunuch Su Xi heard this, he nodded repeatedly: "That's very good, very good!"

Zhao Ji also thought it was okay, and then turned around and asked, "I have checked these past few days to see what the remaining ingredients of the pills that Master Zhang sent are?"

The head of the dean looked solemn: "Speaking of this matter, I do have something to tell you, sir."

Zhao Ji nodded and signaled the dean to continue.

"In the remaining pills, some ingredients are actually similar to the medicine juice, and there are also traces of Wu Shi San. In addition, some other wolf and tiger medicines are also added in!"

When Zhao Ji heard this, his expression became serious and his brows furrowed.

This time, Master Zhang really wanted to murder the emperor.

It can even be said to be more terrifying. Maybe Master Zhang intends to use things like the Five-Stone Powder to control the emperor.

This is truly a sinister intention. You must know that the emperor is the emperor of the Celestial Empire.

I believe everyone knows the story of using the emperor to control the princes.

Zhang Zhenren's intention was extremely obvious.

Even though the eunuch Su Xi had not read many books, he could understand the seriousness of this.

"Master Zhang is so brave that he dares to do such a thing! We must expose him in front of the emperor!"

The chief eunuch Su Xi was very angry. You know, even if the emperor passed away, Zhao Ji and the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau, as officials of the previous dynasty, would naturally not be affected much. But the chief eunuch Su Xi was the emperor's personal eunuch. Once something happened to the emperor, as long as he did not die of natural causes, the chief eunuch would be in a very dangerous position.

Basically, they were either tortured or coerced and exploited, and sooner or later they would be drawn into the royal vortex.

It is precisely because she can see the outcome of her future that Su Xi is so upset.

Although he had served the emperor for many years, he was not loyal enough to be buried with him.

However, as a eunuch in the harem, he could actually do nothing. The only people he could really rely on were the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau and Zhao Ji.

And it is obvious that Zhao Ji really wants to save the emperor.

The head of the hospital is more like someone who follows orders.

So Su Xi said to Zhao Ji: "If Your Excellency needs me to testify for anything, I will naturally do my best to do it. However, I just wonder if Your Excellency has any other plans. The Emperor's affairs cannot be delayed like this!"

Zhao Ji smiled and nodded: "I know you are anxious, Eunuch Su Xi, but now the situation has completely reversed. At least now we know the real intention of Master Zhang. From this moment on, Master Zhang is in the light, and we are in the dark!"

"As for the follow-up, we must find a way to make Master Zhang show his true colors..."
