”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.
