Chapter 194: Demoted to a commoner and banished to the cold palace
She turned to look at Concubine Zhao in fear, but Concubine Zhao didn't even glance at her.
She became even more panicked and had a bad feeling.
"Your Majesty! I've eaten other pastries made in the kitchen and they're fine. They all use the same ingredients..."
Tang Xiluo curled his lips, "So you are sure that these flowers are poisonous? If this young lady still doesn't believe it, then invite all the doctors from the Imperial Hospital over."
Chen Yueyi didn't say anything, but she agreed.
She knew very well that the problem was with the flowers, so the two imperial doctors must have made a mistake. It would not be a bad idea to ask other imperial doctors to check.
Zhan Jingxuan looked at Chen Yueyi with a dark face, somewhat impatient with her tactlessness.
But in order to prove Rouer's innocence in front of everyone, he could only wave his hand and let Fuxi go to the Imperial Hospital to ask for the imperial physician.
Tang Xirou glanced at her sister. If so many doctors came, there would inevitably be corners that were overlooked. What if they really found out?
In contrast, Tang Xiluo looked calm. Lei Er had followed the dog man for so many years, and he trusted his ability to get things done.
Besides, there is no other way now except to trust him. After all, my hands can't reach that far, so I can only trust this bitch.
Moreover, I can see that the emperor has my sister in his heart. If a man wants to protect you, he will cover it up for you even if he knows the truth.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to give away the fox fur for free. He should have seen that.
The most authoritative people, those above ten thousand people, are on her side. What else does she have to be afraid of?
In a moment, a group of imperial doctors rushed over.
"Your humble servant greets His Majesty, Your Majesty, Princess, and all the ladies."
Zhan Jingxuan raised his hand and said, "My dear ministers, there is no need to be polite. Go and check if there is anything unusual about this flower."
Several imperial doctors had an idea of what was going on as they came here, so they all came forward to investigate.
Zhan Jingchen said calmly, "You don't have to care about the face of Imperial Doctor Liu and Imperial Doctor Chen. If you can find out, I will let you stand above the two imperial doctors."
Everyone was shocked, and several doctors breathed a sigh of relief.
The two imperial doctors were unable to find any problem. If they had found one... they would have been somewhat cautious regarding the social etiquette.
But after the prince said this, some of them could work with peace of mind, while others began to secretly look forward to it. If the problem was really found, wouldn't they become the head of the Imperial Hospital?
Tang Xiluo began to play the bad guy, "But if I knew that you had deliberately done this, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
Several imperial doctors who had just started to think about it all gave up. Although power and status are important, they are not as important as life.
It is better to check carefully and cautiously. Imperial Doctor Liu and Imperial Doctor Chen usually treat them well and even teach them various medical skills selflessly.
Dozens of imperial doctors checked the flowers in front of the palace gate from different corners, and after a stick of incense, they all shook their heads.
"Your Majesty, I have not found anything unusual."
"Your Majesty, I have not found anything either."
"I haven't found out yet."
"This flower has not been poisoned."
"..."
"..."
All the imperial doctors spoke in unison, shaking their heads, and none of them found any problems.
Concubine Zhao was in disbelief. How could this be possible?!
Chen Yueyi was also completely dumbfounded. How could it be non-toxic?
Zhan Jingxuan's patience was completely exhausted, and he looked at Concubine Zhao and Chen Yueyi with a dark face.
"So what questions do you have?"
Concubine Zhao took a step forward and looked at Doctor Liu and others.
"Doctor, are there some poisons that are colorless and odorless and cannot be easily detected?"
Doctor Liu nodded, "Indeed, there is such a rare poison."
Concubine Zhao was delighted when she heard this, but her thoughts were interrupted the next second.
"But in my opinion, the poison you were poisoned with, Madam Zhao, is not colorless and tasteless."
Doctor Chen nodded, "That's right, none of the symptoms of colorless and odorless poisoning fit your description, Concubine Zhao."
Concubine Zhao: “…”
She still couldn't believe it. What went wrong? The flower was obviously poisonous, but it was impossible for any of these dozens of doctors to not be able to find out the cause.
Even if they were to be bribed, it would be impossible to bribe them all in a short period of time. Some of them were stubborn! Especially Liu Taiyi, he hated tampering the most. He was very strict in his words and deeds and would never lie.
Doctor Chen even dared to contradict the late emperor. The late emperor was reluctant to see a doctor, and when this angered Doctor Chen, he would be scolded...
Concubine Zhao gritted her teeth. She didn't believe that this was okay.
"In that case, send someone to try it and see if it's poisonous."
Zhan Jingxuan couldn't help but frown.
Tang Xiluo strode forward, and before anyone could react, he tore off a large piece of petals and stuffed it into his mouth.
After chewing it a few times, he swallowed it.
Tang Xirou was startled, "Lolo!"
Zhan Jingchen couldn't help but frown, "As the current princess, why should I let you try the medicine?!"
His tone was a bit scolding and anxious. He knew better than anyone whether the flower was poisonous or not. He just didn't know what was in the little package of the little girl. Even more than a dozen doctors couldn't find out.
Imperial Doctor Liu and Imperial Doctor Chen were also startled and stepped forward to pick a large piece of petals and put them in their mouths.
The princess tried the medicine herself, so as the royal doctors, they should verify it themselves.
More than a dozen doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau also ate the flower petals.
However, everyone was standing there intact, and as time passed, everyone was still fine.
Tang Xirou's heart almost rose to her throat, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that her sister was fine.
"Princess Zhao, Miss Chen, do you still have any doubts? Why don't you try it yourself?"
Princess Zhao was completely disappointed. Was the flower tampered with? But she didn't have an antidote at all. Who could develop an antidote in time? Even an antidote for this large area of flowers.
Chen Yueyi also looked ashen. How could this happen? It was clearly the flower's fault...
"Let's go check inside Chen Yueyi's palace."
-
After a stick of incense, Chen Yueyi burst into tears and knelt down to hug the emperor's legs.
"Your Majesty! I am innocent!"
"Your Majesty, I have no idea what's going on!"
Zhan Jingxuan kicked her away, "The evidence is irrefutable, what else do you have to argue about?!"
The cook in the kitchen came forward to testify against Chen Yueyi. Now she can't clear herself no matter what.
"Someone! Seize her position as Chen Yueyi, demote her to a commoner, and banish her to the cold palace!"
The reason why she was not sentenced to death outright was because of her father's dedication to the court.
Chen Yueyi looked at Concubine Zhao with a sneer. What else did she not understand at this moment? She had completely become her scapegoat!
