Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Wanwan's Daily Advancement

Chapter 420 Add a Fire

"Your Highness is extremely lucky and blessed to have escaped such a vicious plot, Your Majesty!"

After Zhang Yun recited the last key sentence, he lay on the ground with his mind blank.

Everyone in the Imperial Hospital envied him for his high salary and rewards. Because he cured the Empress, Concubine Ling valued him very much and always gave him large sums of money to appease him. But God knows, this job is really not easy!

This isn't even about licking blood from a knife, this is about living in a sea of fire and a mountain of swords, with nowhere to go!

It's true that Concubine Ling is a good master, but this job is too challenging!

Hongli's furious mood calmed down a little, and Zhang Yun's words of good fortune made him remember the words of the chief envoy of the Imperial Observatory.

It was also because Ruyi had been under his close supervision recently and could not cause any trouble, so he forgot that Yanwan was a lucky star who could ward off evil spirits.

It seems... he hasn't been to Yan Wan's palace for a long time.

Hongli walked to the bed and sat down, holding Yanwan's cold hand tightly: "Tell me, how should we treat it now?"

Zhang Yun felt relieved and said hurriedly, "I can prescribe some detoxifying and heat-clearing prescriptions, and with acupuncture, I can force the poison out of your Majesty, but... but..."

Hongli shouted, "Just say what you want to say, why are you hesitating?"

Zhang Yun crouched lower and lower: "Although most of the toxins can be cleared out, there are still some that remain. I'm afraid the emperor will need to stay at the queen's place for at least ten days..."

Hongli: “…”

He frowned and said, "Prescribe some medicine."

Zhang Yunru was pardoned and hurried outside. However, because he was too nervous and had been kneeling for too long, he even fell when he stood up.

Hongli rubbed his eyebrows and saw Chunchan kneeling in front of the bed.

His eyes darkened: "What's wrong?"

Chunchan choked up and said, "Your Majesty, I am so bold that I brought here the soup bowl that Your Majesty used most often, and the wine glass that she had just used before the accident."

She was trembling all over, her face full of fear and terror. She took out the two things from her skirt pocket with trembling hands. Her clothes were stained, but she didn't care at all.

When Hongli saw her like this, he could feel more and more that Yanwan had almost been ruined and ended up dying suddenly.

The person behind the scenes played this trick at the banquet hosted by the King of Bahrain, because he was sure that the King was concerned about Mongolia's face and would not conduct a strict investigation!

This is really... courting death!!!

He said coldly: "Go and call Zhang Yun in!"

Jinzhong immediately hurried out to call Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun's forehead was covered with sweat. "Is the Imperial Concubine's condition recurring again?"

Jinzhong said in a deep voice: "Miss Chunchan brought the soup bowl and wine glass used by the Empress. The Emperor asked you to go and have a look."

After a pause, he asked, "Has the Imperial Concubine's medicine been boiled?"

Zhang Yun nodded: "It's urgent, and the queen is weak, and she has been frying her."

He paused and said, "However, to be on the safe side, Eunuch Jinzhong should have someone keep an eye on it. It would be best to make another batch of the same one and have your people keep an eye on it. I will take another look before the Empress uses the medicine."

Jinzhong narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Please, Master Yuanzheng, tell me some precautions."

Zhang Yun paused for a moment, thinking that these two were really ruthless, so he lowered his voice and warned them earnestly: "This medicine is very powerful, so the antidote is also very powerful. You must not put too much yellow flower, otherwise the sudden heat and cold will cause death!"

Jinzhong's face was serious: "If there were too much of this, would you be able to tell?"

Zhang Yun nodded: "Yellow flowers taste bitter, I'll know once I taste it."

Jinzhong's expression relaxed, and after bringing Zhang Yun in, he lowered his voice and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, I will personally supervise the decoction of the medicine to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation."

Hongli's eyes were cold and he said, "Let Jinshou keep an eye on the medicine. You go to the banquet hall and make sure everyone is under my watch!"

Jinzhong knelt down and responded, "Yes!"

He came out in a hurry, and when he saw Jin Shou, he said, "If the one boiling the medicine is not Xiao Qinzi, replace him, and then you go in again. While he is not paying attention, add two taels of yellow flowers to the first pot of medicine."

Jin Shou nodded and walked away quickly.

After Jinzhong greeted the people waiting outside, he quickly walked towards the banquet hall. After he walked a long way away, he turned around and glanced at the people who were still waiting outside the tent.

Regardless of whether it was the Third Prince who did it this time, since he has already started to lay out the plan, don't even think about escaping.

The sin committed by the master cannot be in vain. If the Third Prince wants to blame someone, just blame him for being short-sighted and insisting on avenging Concubine Chun!

Jinzhong hurried to the venue and looked at Yanwan's seat first. He saw that the soup bowl was gone, and Lancui was standing among the guarded palace maids and eunuchs. She looked up at him and her heart moved slightly.

It seems that Master Ling has arranged everything.

Although this plot came suddenly, it was not a battle the master was fighting without preparation.

His face was grim: "Someone, come here, why are there so many things missing from the Imperial Concubine's table? How did you guard it?!"

The chief guard came over quickly, his face grim: "Don't be angry, Chief Steward, I'll arrange for someone to look for him right away."

Jinzhong said in a deep voice: "Master Zhang, you must keep an eye on your men. Today's matter is not only for the emperor to have a result, but also for Mongolia. This is related to the relationship between the royal family and the 49 tribes of Mongolia. This is a serious matter and it cannot be dealt with by the negligence of one or two imperial guards."

The chief guard's heart sank; "Don't worry, Chief Steward!"

He hurried to check, and soon a man was brought over with a broken soup bowl in his hand.

Jinzhong looked at the dirt on the soup bowl with a cold face, and then looked at the captured person with a gloomy face.

He was a guard, coincidentally, the one who had been in frequent contact with the Third Prince recently.

The soup basin was obviously not broken by the guards, but was found around him. At this moment, he looked quite calm: "Captain of the Guards, Chief Steward, what are you doing? Are you trying to make me take the blame?"

He sneered: "Then you should also ask us, the Borjigit family?"

The Borjigit family was a prominent Mongolian clan, and the fact that he was chosen to serve in the imperial court was a reflection of the emperor's love for Mongolia.

The captain of the guards paused.

Jinzhong sneered, "Borjigit is loyal to the emperor, and the emperor has always treated you well. You are a son of a branch family, but you are lucky enough to be blessed by heaven. You'd better not betray me, otherwise, even if you are a distant relative of Prince Xun's wife, you will die!"

The guard's face changed slightly, and before he could say anything else, he was taken away by the captain of the guards.

When the others were taken into custody, the chief guard said in a deep voice, "I actually don't have any evidence. I just saw him standing in front of Concubine Ling's desk for a while today, so I brought him here."

Jinzhong said indifferently: "That's enough. Once he's in jail and tortured, we'll know if he's innocent or not."

The captain of the guards had a stern look on his face, knowing that the emperor was extremely angry, and he was determined to get to the bottom of this matter, even if it meant digging deep into the earth.

He held up the fragments and said, "General Manager, please look at these fragments..."

Jinzhong pulled out a table runner and wrapped up the fragments: "I hope we can find out something, otherwise..."

His face was filled with worry: "Master Zhang, I know it's not easy for you to climb to this position. You have to be loyal to the country. If you are implicated by these underworld officials, I will really feel sorry for you."

He patted Captain Zhang on the shoulder and left with the fragments.
