"I think you should stop drinking this soup too." Dongfang Chen waved his fan, casually stirred it with a spoon, and laughed.
Nalan Rongxuan's brows revealed a faint smile, and only let Wei Ling secretly throw away the soup, which was considered to agree with Dongfang Chen's suggestion, the chef should keep it for now.
Nalan Ronglang was the best at line fishing, so they wanted to see who had the longer line and who had the better one.
Just as Nalan Rongxuan was chatting happily with Dongfang Chen, the atmosphere in the Eastern Palace was extremely tense!
Geng Qing arrived at the Eastern Palace early in the morning and thoroughly interrogated everyone in the Eastern Palace. The crown prince originally wanted to use ordinary poison, but the poison was too strong and it was difficult to control the poison and leave him with half his life.
He thought that with his poison, the emperor's attention would be focused on his body. Even if he were to find someone to investigate, there would be a lot of his people in the Board of Justice, and at that time, it would be easy for him to cover it up.
He never thought that the emperor would actually transfer Geng Qing back from a thousand miles away! The Crown Prince was very clear about Geng Qing's ability, especially since the two of them were mortal enemies. Back then, in order to defeat Geng Qing, he had put in a lot of effort.
He never thought that his royal father would actually care about such a person and even entrust such an important matter to him to investigate. Nalan Rongjun was so regretful, why didn't he have the heart to directly kill this Geng Qing at that time?
If he were to allow this matter to continue to be investigated, then his own matter … Soon, he would no longer be able to hold it back! Especially since Nalan Rongxuan was also being assassinated at this time, it was basically framing him!
"Crown Prince, prince, this official has questioned you thoroughly. Please do not worry about this matter, please take care of yourself." Geng Qing came over to say his goodbyes. His eyes shone with a sharp light as they met the crown prince's gaze, causing Nalan Rongjun to be even more upset.
Nalan Rongjun waved his hands, he seemed very weak, and was too lazy to even say anything. Right now, he had to think of a way to quickly remove all his suspicions, to not let Geng Qing bite onto him and not let him go.
Geng Qing bowed and then left. Looking at his retreating back, the guard next to the crown prince asked darkly, "prince, do you want to …" As he spoke, he made a gesture to wipe his neck.
"No, touching Geng Qing at this time, isn't that courting death!" How could the crown prince not want to kill Geng Qing? It was just that at this critical juncture, who knew how many eyes were still on him!
After leaving the Eastern Palace, Geng Qing went to the too hospital without stopping. Although there were many talented people in the too hospital who were born in the desert, he still didn't believe that anyone would be able to develop the antidote to the strange poison in such a short amount of time.
Furthermore, during his earlier investigation, the palace maids and eunuchs who were responsible for serving the crown prince meals always spoke of the poisoning in a secretive and unnatural manner. Moreover, during his investigation, he even found out that a few maids and attendants had mysteriously disappeared from the East Palace recently, which made him feel that something was amiss.
He was sure that there was something fishy about the crown prince's affairs, and things would be much easier after that. There would definitely be people from the East Palace working with him in the hospital!
"Geng..." Geng Qing? " When Geng Qing entered the Imperial Physician Wang's courtyard, he was preparing to leave while carrying his medical case. However, when he saw Geng Qing's familiar and unfamiliar face, he tried to call out his name.
Geng Qing also recognized Imperial Physician Wang. The two of them could be considered to be on good terms back then, but he definitely trusted Imperial Physician Wang's character! The case he was about to investigate had something to do with the Imperial Physician Wang, so he took the opportunity to ask her some questions.
"Imperial Physician Wang, a few days ago the crown prince was poisoned. I wonder which imperial physician treated him."
Imperial Physician Wang seemed to know that he wanted to ask this question. "Imperial Physician Ren, as well as Imperial Physician Zhang and Imperial Physician Li's assistance."
In the Grand Hospital, in terms of medical skills, Ren Zhiyuan was not very skilled. That day, when the crown prince had been poisoned, Ren Zhi Yuan had been very active and had brought along his trusted aides, Imperial Physician Zhang and Imperial Physician Li, to treat him.
Imperial Physician Wang's words were very objective, and didn't have any particular directionality. Geng Qing felt that he hadn't seen the wrong person, and had faintly made a decision in his heart. He immediately thanked his sincerely and was about to leave the hospital.
"Geng Qing!" At this moment, Imperial Physician Wang called out to him.
Geng Qing asked with doubt, "Is there something else?"
"I know that His Majesty has complete trust in you. If possible, you'd better persuade him to pay attention to his health. For the past six months, his body has been under the charge of Imperial Physician Ren. The rest of us don't even have a chance to request for meridians."
Imperial Physician Wang spoke tactfully, but Geng Qing understood what he meant. Ren Zhi Yuan's identity was extremely sensitive, and he was also highly valued by His Majesty. The consequences would be unimaginable!
"This old man still has things to do, so I'll be leaving first. Geng Qing, you need to be careful." Seeing that Geng Qing already took his words to heart, Doctor Wang did not say anymore and directly took his leave.
Geng Qing, who had already been framed once, was very clear about the dangers of this deep palace. Sighing, he continued to walk towards the hospital.
At this moment, Ren Zhi Yuan was standing guard beside the medicine furnace, humming a small tune as he fried the medicine. It was very effective for the emperor since it was said that the medicine was even more effective than the medicine given by the Godly Doctor's disciples.
As for the Crown Prince prince, when the Crown Prince ascends to the throne, his true glory and wealth would come!
"Are you the judge, Ren Zhi Yuan?" Geng Qing inquired along the way and very quickly found Ren Zhi Yuan who was by the side of the medicinal furnace. Seeing the crafty look in his eyes, Geng Qing did not have any good impressions of this person.
Hearing someone call him, Ren Zhi Yuan raised his head, and upon seeing Geng Qing's hawk-like eyes, his heart immediately "thumped". He then pretended to be disdainful, "That's right, who are you?"
Geng Qing sneered in his heart, "I am Geng Qing, under the orders of His Majesty, I have come to inquire about the crown prince's poisoning.
"Then tell me!" Ren Zhiyuan braced himself, but a trace of guilt appeared on his face.
Geng Qing began to inquire about the detoxification method, and his questions were getting more and more detailed. Ren Zhi Yuan's lies were about to be exposed, and by the time he had a chance to lie, he was already sweating profusely.
"Judge, are you hot?" The corner of Geng Qing's mouth curled into a faint mocking smile.
Ren Zhiyuan wiped his forehead, "What do you know? I'm currently brewing medicine for His Majesty!"
"Then I won't disturb the judge, but you have to fry his medicine well. If anything goes wrong, the judge won't be able to take responsibility!" Geng Qing looked at the medicinal herbs on top of the furnace with a deeper meaning in his eyes.
Ren Zhiyuan was shocked, had Geng Qing discovered something? Impossible, that person had already told me. It doesn't matter if someone checks the pill, I definitely won't be able to find anything!
"I'm already clear on the situation. Lord Ren, you need to properly fry the medicine. Don't delay the time for the emperor to take the medicine." Geng Qing looked at Ren Zhiyuan deeply once again, then turned and left.
Ren Zhiyuan was shocked, but his mind was unable to calm down. After Geng Qing left, he immediately wrote a letter, and only after seeing the messenger pigeon fly far away did he feel at ease.
