141 “Drunken Bones (Guyan 1v1 High H)” Hope

After retreating from the crowd, Xie Ciyan’s slightly heavy voice sounded in the silent wing. He looked a little lonely when he listened carefully, as if he was worried that what Dr. Shen was going to say to him next would be related to Yan Zhaozhao, and he was afraid of hearing anything bad about her.

Maybe he was too worried, but Xie Ciyan, who had always kept his emotions and anger intangible, actually showed all his thoughts on his face.Seeing this, Imperial Physician Shen stopped beating around the bush and asked directly: “Your Majesty, when I checked the Queen’s pulse just now, I also noticed that the Queen is extremely cold and it is difficult to give birth.”

After the words came out, the worry on Xie Ciyan’s face slowly disappeared, and his voice was calm, as if it didn’t cause the slightest disturbance to him.”Yes, I know.” He paused for a moment and then continued, with a hint of pleading in his tone.”I also ask the imperial doctor not to publicize this matter. I don’t want to hear any rumors about Zhao Zhao’s infertility.”

He raised his eyes, and his tone became even more majestic as an emperor, “Does the imperial doctor understand what I mean?”

Doctor Shen hurriedly took two steps back and compiled, but instead of saying the words of acceptance to the emperor, he said: “The emperor misunderstood. Although the Queen’s cold body makes it difficult to have children, it is not infertile.”

Xie Ciyan’s body suddenly stiffened, and he even forgot to breathe for a moment. After realizing the meaning of Imperial Physician Shen’s words, he stood up suddenly and said in an urgent tone, “What does the Imperial Physician mean by this? Please tell me carefully.”

Doctor Shen had a smile on his face and respectful eyes, “Your Majesty, although the Empress has injured her body, she has not damaged her roots. As long as she is warmed and recuperated, she can conceive an heir.” He paused for a while and then continued: “Previously, the Empress should have kept her illness a secret and avoided medical treatment, so no imperial doctor knew about the situation. If the Emperor is at ease, please hand over the Empress’ body to me, and I will take good care of the Empress.”

He suddenly raised his head, the joy in his eyes was beyond words, the corners of his mouth could not suppress the upward curve, and his heart was beating wildly.He couldn’t believe it, and was even afraid that this moment was just a dream he had imagined, so he pinched himself secretly. The moment the pain hit him, he felt extremely happy.

Although Zhao Zhao didn’t tell her about the heir, he knew that she cared about her and had been depressed about it for a while. How could he not be happy now that there was such good news.He said hello a few times, and then said with a serious look, “I’ll be busy with the nursing care, Imperial Physician Shen.”

Imperial Physician Shen smiled back, bowed to the emperor, and then walked out of the chamber door, leaving his alone time to the loving empress.

Seeing Dr. Shen come out, Huo Sui hurriedly greeted him and invited him to his side room.Immediately, Bi Luo was asked to get the food she had collected. The desk was full of breakfast for the group of them in the morning.”Please ask the doctor to test the poison.”

Doctor Shen took out several silver needles from the medicine box on his forehead, held the hanging sleeve of the hand holding the needle with his fingertips, and inserted the silver needle into the unfinished porridge with a skillful movement. When he pulled it out again, the silver needle turned black.

Doctor Shen frowned, then replaced a new silver needle and continued to inject the rest of the food. Except for the bowl of porridge, the rest of the food was non-toxic.

Huo Sui, who had a complete view of the poison testing process, had a sharp look on his face, with a hint of chill in his eyes.All the food was non-poisonous, but only the bowl of porridge Yan Zhaozhao ate contained the fatal heartbroken grass, which showed that the poisoner had a very clear goal. He wanted to poison the queen, and he was not poisoning randomly.But what he didn’t understand was, how could the poisoner be sure that the porridge served would be placed in front of Yan Zhaozhao?

“Who is going to poison the queen outside the palace?” Huo Sui whispered, his usually lazy eyes now a little sharper, and his mind kept recalling the details of this morning, “There was no one else in the inn at that time, and the person who poisoned her was either a waiter in the inn or someone who could enter the inn’s dining room at will.”

Xie Ciyan was the regent in the past, and he had an attractive appearance that easily attracted attention.Huo Sui was worried that the inn’s overcrowded people would recognize him, so he gave the innkeeper money to rent the inn, so there were no other guests in the inn except them.They were on a temporary trip, and they only showed up yesterday for fun. Today, someone was eager to poison them. I think this person is quite powerful, and he can arrange everything in such a short period of time.

“No, that’s not right.” Bi Luo, who had been pondering for a long time, suddenly spoke up. Huo Sui raised his eyes to look at her, with a hint of doubt between his eyebrows.

Bi Luo met the man’s doubtful gaze and said with serious eyes: “The one who poisoned her is not the one who harms the queen.” She hesitated for a moment, but still had the courage to speak, but her voice was softer than before, showing a little panic.”He wants to harm the emperor!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Sui’s expression became stern, even half of his usual casual look disappeared from his face, and his eyes were full of stern expression.Even Doctor Shen, who was standing in front of the desk, looked nervous and his expression was even heavier than before.

Poisoning the queen and poisoning the emperor are two completely different things. Poisoning the emperor is much more serious than the former. It involves the people of the country and the safety of the country.Therefore, he had to ask clearly, “Why did you say this?”

Meeting Huo Sui’s eyes, Bi Luo, who was still a little flustered just now, somehow calmed down a little, as if she had an inexplicable trust and peace of mind for the person in front of her.”This morning, I have the honor to sit at the same table with the Emperor and the Empress. I can see clearly that the bowl of porridge was originally placed in front of the Emperor. It was only the Empress who was greedy that she ate the bowl of porridge.” She seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter, frowning, “If the Empress had not eaten the porridge, then the Emperor would be the one who ate it.”

In other words, the target of the poisoner from the beginning was not Yan Zhaozhao, but the Emperor!

The three of them all looked stern, and Bi Luo instantly became a little at a loss.After Huo Sui came to his senses, he asked her to help Dr. Shen take care of the queen. He immediately turned around and walked out of the wing door, heading straight to the inn door to find the shopkeeper who had received them yesterday.

When he returned to the palace to find Doctor Shen, he also dispatched capable secret guards to guard around the inn to prevent the poisoner from sneaking away from the inn.

At this time, the shopkeeper was making calculations in one hand and writing down accounts in the other. There was a little bit of joy on his face, thinking that the income from coming to the inn was not low.Huo Sui approached and placed his sword heavily in front of the shopkeeper. The originally smiling face immediately became panicked. He quickly raised his head and asked tremblingly, “Mr. Master… I wonder what I have offended you?”

Huo Sui also refused to talk nonsense and asked directly, “How many waiters are there in the inn? Find a reason for them to come here. No one can be missing.”

The shopkeeper felt that something was wrong, but did not do as he said because he was afraid of the sword in front of him. Instead, he frowned and said in a slightly rude tone: “Why does this young master want to see the waiter in my inn? Or should I ask, what is the identity of the young master who wants to see the waiter in the inn?”

Huo Suiben didn’t want to alert the snake and reveal his identity. He thought that the shopkeeper was a timid person and would cooperate with him if he had a sword, but he didn’t expect that he would look away.He sighed softly and finally reached into his arms to take out a token and put it in front of the shopkeeper. He raised his eyebrows lazily and said, “Now, can I see all the waiters in your inn?”

Just the title of “general” meant that he could not afford to offend someone. The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then he raised his forehead to Huo Sui, and his words and deeds were all extremely respectful.”Okay, okay, little one, let them out here.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he hurriedly walked to the backyard in three steps and gathered the guys together.

Huo Sui suddenly called from behind. His back stiffened and he turned around hastily.Then I saw the man leaning on the desk with the fine sword in his arms, raising his chin towards him, “Be natural, don’t startle the snake.”

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper couldn’t help but worry. The implication of his words was that someone in their inn had offended the general, and they were about to find that person.Thinking of this, he unconsciously cursed the man several times in his heart, for fear that it would harm the inn he had worked so hard to run. He secretly thought that he must find this man out, but don’t let the general think that he is also an accomplice, then he would be really unjust.

After thinking about it for a while, the shopkeeper hurriedly controlled his expression, and followed Huo Sui’s words to make his words and actions more natural. His anxious pace gradually slowed down, and he walked to the backyard and dining room, asking them to stop what they were doing. He told them that the distinguished guests who came last night had given them money, and asked them to go to the main hall to share the money.

When they heard that there was a reward to be divided, the eyes of all the waiters suddenly shone brightly, they all stopped their movements, casually wiped their dirty hands on their clothes, and went to the main hall happily.
