Chapter 61 It seems to be a happy pulse

When the Queen Mother saw Mo Yunzhu, her old eyes suddenly brightened up and she spoke slowly, "Girl Yunzhu, you, you are here. I am fine, don't worry."

The Queen Mother spoke weakly, but was temporarily conscious.

"Empress Dowager, the maid is here to see you." Mo Yunzhu immediately squatted beside the bed, reached out and held the Empress Dowager's hand, and quietly took her pulse.

The emperor frowned and asked, "Doctor Ji, what's wrong with my mother's health? Didn't she catch cold a few days ago? Why hasn't she recovered yet?"

Doctor Ji immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is old and her body recovers slowly. The last time she had a severe cold, we could only use stronger medicine, but it would still hurt her body."

"When will she get better?" The emperor looked at his mother and frowned as he saw that she didn't look like she would get better.

However, when he saw the back of Mo Yunzhu's head, his heart suddenly skipped a beat and he thought of something.

"Your Majesty, I and the Imperial Hospital will do our best to make the Empress Dowager get better." Doctor Ji said hurriedly.

"Well, thank you for your hard work, my dear." The emperor looked for a while and then went back, tactfully giving the empress dowager and Mo Yunzhu time to chat.

"Madame Qin, please go outside and keep an eye on things." Doctor Ji said to the old maid beside him.

Nanny Qin was the Empress Dowager's maid who came with her as a dowry and the person she trusted the most.

Nanny Qin nodded immediately, called everyone else out, and guarded the door herself to prevent anyone from eavesdropping on what was going on inside.

"Miss, how is the Queen Mother?" Doctor Ji had already seen Mo Yunzhu taking her pulse.

Mo Yunzhu frowned and said, "The Queen Mother's pulse is very strange." Then she looked at the closed door and took out a silver needle.

The Queen Mother looked at Yun Zhu and said, "Girl, Doctor Ji said that you also know medical skills?"

"Empress Dowager, Yunzhu only knows a little bit. She didn't dare to show it before, but there have been too many things happening recently. Yunzhu can only save herself." Mo Yunzhu began to insert needles into the Empress Dowager's hand.

But the silver needle did not turn black, and Doctor Ji immediately said anxiously: "There is no sign of poisoning, but the pulse is really strange, as if..."

"It looks like a pregnancy pulse." Mo Yunzhu had a bad feeling when she saw that the silver needle did not turn black.

"What?" The Queen Mother's eyes widened.

"Empress Dowager, don't misunderstand. Your pulse does resemble a pregnancy pulse, but it is definitely not a pregnancy pulse." Doctor Ji said immediately.

"Of course it's not a happy pulse." The Queen Mother almost rolled her eyes, "Don't say that casually..."

"Yes, yes, everyone is allowed to leave," Doctor Ji immediately said, "Miss, what do you think is the reason?"

Mo Yunzhu immediately said to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, can Yunzhu help you check it?"

"What's wrong with that? Old Man Ji said that you're the only one he can trust. I didn't feel this uncomfortable when I had a cold, but after I recovered from the cold, I felt something was wrong. I felt weaker and weaker, and I wanted to sleep all the time. I even felt like I was poisoned."

The Queen Mother has come to this day after being exposed to all the darkness in the palace. She naturally knows how vicious the conspiracies and schemes there are.

Mo Yunzhu immediately looked at her eyes, then looked at her tongue, then sat down, her pretty face looking very cold.

"Girl, what's wrong? What did you see?" The Queen Mother was a little nervous.

Doctor Ji also looked anxious and asked, "Didn't you find it?"

"The Queen Mother must have been possessed by a snake." Mo Yunzhu said solemnly.

"Guo?" Both of them almost shouted out loud.

After all, this thing is a banned item in Qingyun. Once anyone uses it, it will be a serious crime punishable by the extermination of all nine generations of the clan. It is more serious than the Five Poison Powder.

Doctor Ji suddenly jumped up and said, "No wonder it's the same as Xi's pulse. It's because there is a living thing in the Queen Mother's body!"

"Not bad, and there is some gray under the Queen Mother's eyes, which is a characteristic of being infected by a snake. It is not obvious yet, and it is obvious that the infection has only been going on for a short time."

"That's not right. If the time was short, why would the Queen Mother become so mentally debilitated so quickly? She was even confused at times." Doctor Ji said immediately.

Mo Yunzhu said: "Because the function of the snake is not to kill people, but to make people lose their spirits and gradually become weak and confused. It is even more difficult for people to find out if the snake is placed after the empress dowager has caught a cold. In this way, even if the empress dowager... cough cough, no one will notice anything."

The queen mother's face darkened: "I am almost gone, and there are still people who can't wait."

"By the way, little girl Yunzhu, how do you know about Gu?" The Queen Mother was surprised again.

Mo Yunzhu immediately laughed and said, "Queen Mother, have you forgotten that Yunzhu likes to read ancient books? I learned medical skills from ancient books, but I never dared to show it before. After all, as a crown princess, you have to be dignified and stable."

The Queen Mother thought about it and it made sense. When Yun Zhu was a child, she liked to go to the library in the palace to read. She would often go in and not come out until called.

There are ancient books and banned books that are not available outside.

"Then, is there a way to solve the problem?"

"Of course there is. Wait for the girl to go back and prepare the medicine. But even if the problem is solved, if the person who put the snake in your body is not caught, you will still be in danger. This time it was a snake that didn't care about its life, but what about next time? If it is a snake that wants to kill you in an instant, it will be too late to save you."

Mo Yunzhu's words made the Queen Mother and Doctor Ji look at each other, both of them with heavy expressions.

"My lady, the lower ribs usually enter the body through the mouth. The Queen Mother has been ill recently, and her food is supervised by Nanny Qin herself. She only gives it to the Queen Mother after tasting it. So the problem is most likely with the soup."

Doctor Ji thought about it and felt that the drug supervision was not done well.

"Every time I prescribe medicine, the Imperial Hospital will prepare the medicine and send it to me after it's boiled."

"Let's first make sure there is no problem with the medicinal materials." The Queen Mother said after thinking for a moment.

"Queen Mother, there must be nothing wrong with the medicinal materials. The insects were added when the medicine was decocted or on the way to deliver it. There was no need for that bad guy to go to such lengths with the medicinal materials." Mo Yunzhu said immediately.

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment and then nodded, "That makes sense, Old Man Ji, you have to check who made the medicine at the Imperial Hospital."

Old Man Ji agreed, but then smiled bitterly and said, "But the worm has already entered the Queen Mother's body. That bad guy doesn't need to trap it anymore. It's hard to catch him."

The Queen Mother sighed and said, "What should we do?"

Mo Yunzhu thought for a moment and said, "Let's first find the person who boiled the medicine, the person who delivered the medicine, and the person who received the medicine. When I go back to prepare the medicine and give it to the Queen Mother, the worm will die. The person who placed the worm and the worm are connected by blood and essence. Once the worm dies, the owner of the worm will definitely retaliate."

"That's great. There's also a girl. Someone who can lay a snake is definitely not an ordinary person. We Qingyun basically don't know how to do this. He must be from another country." The Queen Mother thought of this.

"That's right. So we can look for people from other countries among these suspects, especially people from Ningxi. I read in a book that the southwest of Ningxi is where the most Gu Shi are."

"People from Ningxi?" Doctor Ji's face suddenly turned pale.
