Chapter 253

This accident arising from many causes saved Duan Wang Fei’s life! Otherwise, Duan Wang Fei might have gone underground, and she doesn’t even know how she died.

Duan Wangye was still a little doubtful and repeatedly confirmed again and again.

“Is this Jiuhe incense really poisonous?”

If an ordinary official questioned the imperial physicians’ judgment like this, Imperial Physician Liu Fang might have turned his back on him. However, Duan Wangye was the emperor’s uncle with noble status so Imperial Physician Liu Fang wanted to show some face and nodded.

“This Physician is sure.”

Duan Wangye took two deep breaths and asked again anxiously, “Imperial physician Liu, how is wangfei?”

“Allow this physician to check on wangfei’s pulse again.”

So, Imperial Physician Liu Fang checked Duan Wang Fei’s pulse again, and this time, it took longer.

Contrary to the defining silence, a burst of fireworks outside the lounge could be heard. The sound seemed to be far away which made the surroundings quieter.

After a while, Imperial Physician Liu Fang finally stopped and reported again.

“Wangfei must have been using the Jiuhe incense for several months now since her foundation is already weak. It will take some time to recuperate.”

Duan Wangye asked a little impatiently, “What kind of Chifeng Grass that has no antidote or cure?”

Imperial Physician Liu Fang: “Wangye, there is no medicine to cure this poison. People who are poisoned can only be nursed back to health slowly.”

Truth was, Duan Wang Fei was fortunate to be able to discover the problem earlier, her health could still be saved. If she waits until her body feels like a thousand ants hollowed her flesh from the inside, she would have no choice but to wait for her death.

With furrowed eyebrows, Duan Wangye was unable to hide his worry and couldn’t help scolding the servants who were around him.

“I told you not to let wangfei use things of unknown origin, look, wangfei has suffered for nothing!”

Wang momo courtesied and said, “Wangye, this Jiuhe incense was given by the heir’s consort!”

Seeing that the matter was over, Zhou Xin flung his horsetail whisk and planned to leave.

“Please stay, Eunuch Zhou.” When Duan Wangye saw that Zhou Xin was leaving, he hurriedly called out to the other party.

Zhou Xin smiled and cupped his hand at Duan Wangye, saying, “Wangye, the Emperor is worried about Duan Wang Fei’s condition, so this servant has to go back to report.”

Duan Wangye looked a little embarrassed, cleared his throat again, and said in a stern voice.

“Eunuch Zhou, this matter has not been investigated yet...”

His intention was to ask Zhou Xin to come to the emperor and not talk nonsense.

Zhou Xin shook off the horsetail whisk again, with a smile still plastered on his fair face. He said, “Wangye, this slave will only report the truth. The emperor is wise and knows what’s the best verdict.”

After saying that, he did not care what was Duan Wangye’s reaction was and just turned around and walked away.

Duan Wangye: “...”

Looking at Zhou Xin’s back as he left, Duan Wangye’s face sank deeper, and his heart was in some turmoil.

He glanced at Wang momo with displeasure and blamed her for talking nonsense just now.

The heir’s consort has been married to their family for so many years. She has always been a virtuous person, and she respects the wangfei very much, so how could she do such a thing!

Even if Wang momo had doubts about the heir’s consort, she could have just said this after they go back to the mansion but she really had to talk in front of Zhou Xin and outsiders, which caused unnecessary troubles.

This matter was originally very simple. After they returned to the mansion, they would carefully interrogate everyone, and they would certainly be able to find out the details of the matter, so why bother and make trouble in front of the emperor!

To say the least, even if the incense was really from the heir’s consort, then she must have been used by someone, and the person behind this must be found out first, right?

Duan Wangye was upset and inevitably got angry. He turned to Duan Wang Fei and said, “Wangfei, you should take good care of your servants!”

Duan Wang Fei: “....”

Although Duan Wang Fei didn’t say a word, Qin Jiu was right beside her and could clearly feel her body tightening up.
