Chapter 492: Loopholes (Update 1)
Everyone's expression suddenly became subtle.
The Fourth Prince's situation in the palace is not good, so why would he give his things to the little eunuch? And it’s just to make the little eunuch suffer less?
Most likely, the young eunuch stole it himself.
"Not long after that, I heard that he was transferred out of Hanzhang Palace. I didn't expect that after so many years, he went to Chengxin Lake again."
Everyone present looked at Concubine Ru in tacit understanding.
There is no doubt that Huang Kun is their man.
But if this person had served the Fourth Prince in Hanzhang Palace before, then... who can be sure whether he was related to the Fourth Prince's injury?
Emperor Mu Wu obviously thought of this as well, and his expression became extremely ugly.
"Did you arrange for Huang Kun to be in Hanzhang Palace?"
Ru Guifei has been confused.
She could never have imagined that she had only come to plead for Xiao Chengxuan, but not only had she failed, but she had also been involved in those old events!
Meeting the cold gaze of Emperor Mu Wu, she shuddered and subconsciously shook her head to refute: "No, no... This matter has nothing to do with me! I have done nothing!"
Emperor Mu Wu's face had already turned slightly blue.
He also wanted to turn a blind eye, but with so many things going on, he couldn't afford to do so!
Seeing that he remained silent, Concubine Ru was really panicked. She knelt down and walked forward to cry, "Your Majesty! How could you think of me like this? I——"
"Why do I miss you?"
Emperor Muwu's words choked Concubine Ru and made her face pale.
A hint of panic flashed across her eyes, and only then did she realize that what she had just said was too revealing!
Emperor Mu Wu hadn't said anything yet, and even Chen Songshi had only mentioned a few words without any clear indication, but she immediately thought of those things.
This seems really hard to believe.
Concubine Ru opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something and she couldn't say anything.
Emperor Mu Wu's voice was filled with uncontrollable anger:
"Summon Prince Jing to the palace immediately! And that Huang Kun! I want to interrogate him personally!"
This is going to make them confront each other!
The blood in Concubine Ru's body surged, her vision gradually blurred, and a bone-chilling chill came from the ground, making her whole body cold.
Finally, her eyes went dark and she fell backwards.
"My queen!"
Eunuch Li panicked and subconsciously looked at Emperor Mu Wu.
Chen Yanchuan said, "The Imperial Concubine is not feeling well, why don't you go and ask for the imperial physician?"
Emperor Mu Wu closed his eyes and waved his hand.
Eunuch Li then responded, "Yes!"
…
Prince Lie's Palace.
When Ye Chutang arrived, Chu Qiyuan and Zhao Xuanping were taking turns taking Xiao Chengqi's pulse.
Zhao Xuanping was worried: "Your Highness has been in a coma for three days and has shown no signs of waking up. What should we do?"
Chu Qiyuan took back the pulse pillow, but he was not as worried as he was.
"Although he hasn't woken up, his pulse has stabilized a lot. If he rests for a few more days, he may get better. There's no rush for this."
Zhao Xuanping felt relieved after hearing this, but his frown still could not be completely relaxed.
After all, he has been in charge of this matter. How can he feel at ease when things have turned out like this?
Ye Chutang walked in slowly and greeted the two of them one by one.
Chu Qiyuan was a little surprised to see her: "Why are you here so early again today? You stayed here for most of the day yesterday. It was tiring enough. You should have a good rest today."
Ye Chutang glanced at the bed and said jokingly, "It's not easy to be at home anyway, it's better to come here to have some peace and quiet."
Chu Qiyuan frowned: "Is someone gossiping about you behind your back again?"
In the past two days, rumors about Ye Chutang have been rampant.
Many people were discussing privately that it was because she provided the wrong medicine that caused Xiao Chengqi to suddenly become seriously ill.
Now the situation has come to her.
Ye Chutang didn't mind it very much: "The mouth is on someone else's body, can I really control what others say?"
Chu Qiyuan's face turned a little cold: "I guess you have been favored recently and made some people unhappy."
Emperor Mu Wu fell ill this time, and it was Ye Chutang who saved him single-handedly, so he made a great contribution.
How can one not be jealous?
Ye Chutang took out the needle and silk: "Justice is in the hearts of the people, why waste time with those people."
Chu Qiyuan saw that she looked normal and actually didn't take those rumors to heart, which made him feel complicated.
Zhao Xuanping immediately noticed Ye Chutang's action, and looked at the silver needle with a cold glow, slightly surprised: "Miss Ye Er, are you planning to give me acupuncture?"
"Yes." Ye Chutang nodded and walked to the bedside.
Zhao Xuanping immediately stepped aside.
He had witnessed Ye Chutang treating the eldest princess, so naturally he trusted Ye Chutang very much at this time, and even felt a little relieved.
——Since Ye Chutang is willing to give acupuncture, it means she is serious about it!
Judging from what happened after she returned to Beijing, it seems that any difficult and complicated problem can be easily solved by her.
Zhao Xuanping asked again: "Then...do you want to adjust the medication for the Third Prince?"
Ye Chutang nodded: "The previous prescription can be suspended for now."
Zhao Xuanping said, "Alright, alright... I asked someone to prepare a few more days' worth of herbs. Since they are no longer needed, I will take them back with me."
Ye Chutang paused and asked, "Did Doctor Zhao prepare the herbs himself?"
"Yes." Zhao Xuanping hesitated, but still spoke frankly, "I was afraid that something might go wrong, so I personally tested everything from the beginning of preparing the herbs."
Ye Chutang narrowed his eyes: "Before, too?"
Zhao Xuanping nodded: "Yes. I have a pharmacy at home, and I carefully selected everything. It is safer to use than outside."
He is an imperial physician, so it is normal for him to have these things at home.
only……
Seeing Ye Chutang not speaking, Zhao Xuanping was a little puzzled: "What? Is there something wrong?"
Ye Chutang paused and asked, "Have those medicinal herbs ever been in someone else's hands?"
"Of course not! This is about His Highness, I am very cautious, how dare I——"
Suddenly, Zhao Xuanping paused, a hint of hesitation flashing across his face.
"It's just that every time I pick them, I will ask my apprentice to pack them one by one..."
Then it must have been done by someone else!
Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows slightly.
She hadn't said anything yet, but Zhao Xuanping was already feeling a little flustered and uncertain.
He really hadn't thought about this before!
Ever since Xiao Chengqi fell into a coma, all he could think about was that there was something wrong with the prescription, but he never thought about the medicinal materials!
Naturally, he trusted his apprentice very much, and he would directly open the medicine bag and boil the medicine every time.
Could it be——
Zhao Xuanping looked a little pale.
“Shouldn’t, shouldn’t…”
Chu Qiyuan suddenly asked, "I remember your apprentice. I heard that he has wanted to join the Imperial Hospital for a long time, but you never agreed?"
With Zhao Xuanping's qualifications, it would not be difficult for him to recommend his own people to join the Imperial Medical Service.
But he was extremely strict with his apprentices, so he rejected them twice and planned to train them some more before they could enter.
