Chapter 728: Taking Action (Part 2)

Ye Chutang's eyes swept across King Yannan's face carefully, but he did not continue to discuss the matter in depth. Instead, he changed the subject and asked about another matter.

"I heard that King Yannan was poisoned by Tuoba Yu before? I wonder if you are feeling better now?"

King Yannan was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that this news should have been revealed by Ye Chutang's friend in Longcheng.

He knew this person existed, but he didn't know much about him.

After the crisis in Longcheng was resolved, he basically stayed with Ye Yunfeng and others. Later, he rushed back to the capital to escort Tuoba Yu back, so he didn't take care of anything else.

However, the matter of the poison was known to the people closest to him, so there was no need to hide it from Ye Chutang.

Princess Qinyang became even more excited and hurriedly urged, "Yes, father! It just so happens that Chu Tang also has some knowledge of the art of poison. Please tell her the details! She may have a way to solve it!"

Prince Yan Nan has heard many rumors about Ye Chutang during this period, including the fact that she performed an autopsy in public in the Ministry of Justice's prison and killed the poisonous insects in the bodies of those Nanhu swordsmen.

only……

"How could Second Miss Ye know the art of poison?" King Yan Nan asked the question that had been lingering in his mind for a long time. "This is a secret art of the Southern Hu people, which is not easily passed on to others. Even the most prestigious Shui family has to go through many selections before they are qualified to come into contact with these..."

Ye Chutang was born in Qingzhou, and later followed Ye Zheng to the capital, but it seems that he did not stay there for too long, as something happened to the Ye family.

After that, she wandered alone with her younger brothers and sisters, eventually going south to Jiangling, where she lived for several years before returning to Beijing last year.

No matter how she looks at it, it seems that she has no chance to learn about these things about Nan Hu?

Ye Chutang shook his head. "I can't say I know everything, but I've heard a few things and I just copied them. My friend is from Louyang, which is very close to Longcheng, and he knows a little about what's going on in Nanhu. I heard all this from him. He was injured a few years ago and came to my clinic by chance, so we got to know each other."

King Yan Nan suddenly realized, "So that's it!"

That way, everything makes sense.

Ye Chutang has excellent medical skills. During the years when he opened the clinic, he had seen countless people and was naturally knowledgeable.

"Besides, I am really nothing in this regard. Just this morning, I just found out that Master Fan Chengzhuo was poisoned."

Ye Chutang brought up this matter very naturally, as if he didn't feel how frightening it was at all.

She shook her head, with a hint of self-mockery on her face.

"I met Mr. Fan not long ago, and I even helped him with a medical examination. Unfortunately, I failed to detect the problem at the time and thought he was poisoned. As a result, he was delayed."

Princess Qinyang curled her lips. "For a person like that, it would be more than enough to die ten thousand times! What's so regretful about that? In my opinion, the longer he lives, the more sin he commits!"

Fan Chengzhuo's reputation has been completely ruined.

Not only did he abandon his wife and children, he also communicated with Wazhen for personal gain. He was capable of such treason, and he should have died long ago!

The crime is unforgivable!

However, Ye Chutang's words confirmed the rumors in Beijing.

King Nan of Yan frowned and asked, "Has he really been poisoned? But he has been staying in the capital and has never left here. How could this happen? Are those people in Nanhu so bold?"

"What's the big deal?" Princess Qinyang shrugged. "Several Nanhu assassins have been arrested before! This proves that those people have already reached out to the capital. It would be easy for them to pick Fan Chengzhuo as their target. Maybe, in addition to Fan Chengzhuo, there are others who have been poisoned but have not been discovered yet!"

Although this statement is rough, it does make sense.

"Forget it, let's ignore their nonsense for now, someone will investigate. Chu Tang, can you help my father feel his pulse first?"

Princess Qinyang was still very worried about her father's health.

Although he seems to have no other problems except being a little weak since he came back, it would still make me feel more at ease if I could take a look.

Because she was afraid that the sound of her walking would cause unnecessary trouble, she didn't even hire a royal physician.

Now the only person I can rely on is Ye Chutang.

Ye Chutang nodded, "According to my friend, the cartilage poison that Tuoba Yu gave to King Yannan is a very common poison. It will only temporarily make a person lose their strength and become physically tired, but it will not endanger their life."

Princess Qinyang's eyes lit up, "So, you can solve it?"

Ye Chutang placed his fingers on King Yannan's wrist and thought for a moment, "Maybe we can give it a try."

Hearing her say this, Princess Qinyang felt relieved.

“That’s great!”

She knew Ye Chutang, and since she said so, there must be a way!

Sure enough, Ye Chutang then took out needles, cloth, and a dagger that was as thin as a cicada's wing and very sharp.

"Ayan."

Ye Chutang just shouted, and Ye Jingyan nodded, turned and walked out.

After a while, he came back with a candlestick and a pot of wine.

Princess Qinyang was quite familiar with this scene.

King Yan Nan also vaguely guessed what she was going to do, but he just sat there and let Ye Chutang do it.

Then, Ye Chutang said, "Please roll up your sleeves."

King Yannan did as he was told, revealing his still strong arms and laying them flat.

Ye Chutang took out the needle and inserted it into Tianquan, Quze and Neiguan along King Nanyan's arm in turn.

King Yannan only felt a burst of intense pain on the inside of his arm, as if he was being bitten by ants.

As Ye Chutang moved, the sour and numb feeling became more and more intense.

King Nan of Yan frowned, then quickly relaxed his brows and endured it as usual.

This is really nothing to him.

"Afeng." Ye Chutang placed the last needle at the Laogong acupoint.

Ye Yunfeng immediately disinfected the dagger with wine and then put it on the fire to roast.

Ye Chutang stretched out her hand, and Ye Yunfeng immediately handed the dagger to her palm.

Ye Chutang didn't even raise his head, his dark and calm eyes staring at the palm of King Yan Nan's hand. He held the dagger and cut a bloody wound on it very lightly and quickly.

Her movements were so quick and decisive, without any delay, that by the time King Yan Nan reacted, blood was already flowing from his palms!

Bleeding is gushing out!

But he still didn't move, still watching Ye Chutang's movements.

Princess Qinyang's heart seemed to be gripped by something, but her eyes refused to move away even an inch and she stared closely.

Soon, King Yan Nan felt the itch spread to the palm of his hand, with a slight stinging pain.

He couldn't help but glance down.

Just at this moment!

It was as if something was surging beneath the wound on the palm!

Ye Chutang was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and he immediately picked out the fingernail-sized blood clot with his sharp dagger!

clang!
