C166 Poisoning (2/2)

He didn't know why people were so fond of detours and twists and turns when poison was administered to them. If he were to use a knife, wouldn't he be done for?

One or both of them had to do bad things this way.

”Thank you, Miss Tao.” Su Zixuan spoke from the bottom of his heart. Saving someone's life was an extraordinary achievement, especially when this was his own life.

”This is what I should do. You should think about who you've offended.” After Tao Muyun finished speaking, he gave her another pulse and left.

Su Qian Shan and Su Zhaoyuan anxiously waited outside the door. They were chased out by Tao Muyun because the diagnosis was too noisy.

Now that Tao Muyun had come out, he couldn't help but step forward to ask and only let out a sigh of relief when he heard Tao Muyun's affirmation. Then he immediately walked into the room to see Su Zixuan.

Only Tao Muyun stared at Su Zhe Yuan's back for a long time with a strange expression in his eyes.

Su Zixuan waited until he had finally persuaded his father and brothers to leave before he had time to think about it.

Offended who?

That was too much. With the issue of personal salt, the Yan Clan would be exterminated. It went without saying just how many people's road to wealth would be cut off, and many people would be angered by that.

However, Su Zixuan dared to conclude that she had been poisoned inside the palace. Amongst those who had offended him, only a few could do anything to him in the Imperial Palace, let alone poison him.

As a result, there were fewer people to question.

Su Zixuan carefully recalled what he had eaten in the palace, and what he had come into contact with. From the moment he had entered the palace, everything had gone from the entrance to the moment he had walked out.

She had only used rice and tea in the palace of the Concubine Chang, nothing else … No, there was also a sip of tea from the empress dowager's palace.

The light in Su Zixuan's eyes darkened. She subconsciously picked up the teacup to drink, but then suddenly remembered that this was the empress's palace, so she stopped drinking.

According to Tao Muyun, she had only taken a small amount of the poison. Was it because she hadn't drunk much in the first place? That was why it was light, rather than the 'benevolence' of the poisoner.

Su Zixuan didn't suspect that it was the poison that had been used in Chang Fei Palace because she and her wife had eaten together. Moreover, the Empress had no reason to harm her.

But empress, is empress really that stupid?

Was she so stupid as to poison someone in her own palace, so stupid that she couldn't take even a tiny bit of poison?
