C473 Tracing the real culprit (1/2)
What did she want to do? A hint of doubt flashed within Xiao He's eyes.
”Xiao He, do you have any clues?” Feng Yunzheng asked.
Xiao He paused for a moment before regaining his senses. ”Yes, I have some clues.”
No matter what, he never would have thought that one day, he would stand on the same front as Lian Rue. If this matter were to be known by his father, then he might even have the heart to kill him.
”Do you have any leads?” Feng Yunzheng asked.
”I just investigated and found out that the person treating Princess Thirteen was Imperial Physician Liang after she returned to the palace. Moreover, Imperial Physician Liang was the only one to diagnose and treat Yi Xiu Palace in the last two months. This Imperial Physician Liang is very problematic, so I suspect that the dried snow clams and dried shellfish in Princess Thirteenth's medicine food are related to him.” Then, Xiao He recounted the incident where he accidentally saw Feng Yang Yao instructing Imperial Physician Liang to frame Feng Lingyue.
”So this means that there really is a huge problem with Imperial Physician Liang. Otherwise, isn't it a bit too much of a coincidence?” Imperial Concubine Liang said thoughtfully.
”In this world, there are very few coincidences without a reason, and most of them are schemes and schemes.” Lian Ruyue said.
After waiting for a while, within two months' time, the list of medicinal ingredients that went in and out of the imperial hospital was brought over to him. It was a thick stack.
”Imperial Physician Rong, we'll need your cooperation this time. This matter must be kept a secret for the time being.” Imperial Concubine Liang ordered.
”Empress, this is the duty and duty of this lowly official. If there really is someone committing a crime in the Grand Hospital, this lowly servant will investigate to the end and uncover the culprit.” Imperial Physician Rong's face was filled with righteousness as he spoke.
”Let's go through the list of items in the past two months and check out the situation of the Dry-snow Toad and Dry-Bei Bei.” Lian Ru Yue stood up, dividing the list into half and looking at each of them.
When she wanted to reach out to take one of the stacks, Xiao He just so happened to reach over to take one as well. The two raised their hands at the same time, and in the end, Xiao He withdrew them and picked up the other stack, while Ruyue calmly took the stack and started flipping through it.
In the records of these lists, dried snow clams and dried shellfish are used at a relatively high frequency, mostly to nourish Yin and replenish deficiency.
Sure enough, they discovered that four days ago, he had recorded the usage of the Dry-snow Toad and the Dry-shelled Bei. However, according to the label, all the ingredients he picked were for Li Moli to make a prescription. On the other hand, there wasn't any record of using these two ingredients in this month for the Ethereal Elegance Palace.
”I discovered that there was something suspicious on this list. Before this month, Lian Zhaoyi would use dried shellfish to make nourishing soup five times a month. However, there was nothing this month, and he had been eating something all this time, but he suddenly stopped eating it. Why is that?” Lian Ruyue said as she put down the thick list in her hands.
Feng Yunzheng nodded and said, ”Your discovery is very reasonable. There is no record that Lian Zhaoyi cannot continue using dry shellfish, yet now he hasn't eaten it for a month. This is clearly deliberately avoiding suspicion.”
”However, this is only a guess. It doesn't directly prove that the Dry-Snow Clam and the Dry-Bei Bei are related to the Thirteenth Princess.” The crux of the problem that Xiao He raised.
Immediately, everyone fell silent.
A moment later, Feng Yunzheng asked, ”Imperial Physician Rong, can you still find the prescription that Imperial Physician Liang wrote for Beauty Li? This duke wants to see what the quantity of dried shellfish Imperial Physician Liang prescribed is.”
When Ru Yue heard Feng Yunzheng's words, she immediately understood — —
