”Clever words. Do you think I will believe your lies?” The empress was very pleased with herself as she placed Imperial Concubine Jin on the ground and ordered her personal palace maid to search the palace.
She had bribed the palace maid long ago to find out that Imperial Concubine Jin had hidden the prescription for the female tribulation in a bottle bestowed upon her. She didn't even need to use any tricks to frame him, only Hu Jin's own loophole would prevent her from turning over forever!
The court lady walked straight to Imperial Concubine Jin's rack. She carefully checked the decorations on the rack one by one under Imperial Concubine Jin's panic-stricken expression.
There was a huge mess in the bottles, large and small, but the prescription the empress was looking for was the only one missing.
”Empress!” The palace maid's heart skipped a beat from Ye Feian's deep gaze, carefully checking out the empress's expression.
The empress became more and more confident. She was no longer as confident as she was before. How could she not understand that she had fallen into a trap?
A counterplot!
”Empress.” The palace maid searched in detail and shook her head as she retreated behind the empress.
Imperial Concubine Jin lowered her eyes to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes as she coldly laughed in her heart.
”Since the Empress said that the entire harem is poisoned, then we can also take a pulse for chenqie. The entire harem knows that this concubine is in danger. This concubine can't possibly risk her life and count herself and my son in as well, just to frame the other consorts. ”
Ye Feihan pondered for a long time before nodding in agreement. He had passed on many imperial physicians who had examined the imperial concubines' arteries and veins. Not all of them had suffered from a woman's misfortune. The lighter the better, the more likely it was that their pregnancy would endanger their lives. The imperial harem had nearly a hundred people, none of whom were spared.
The empress had publicly accused Jin Jibing of being a imperial concubine, so this was the only way to clear the place of suspicion.
Imperial Physician Ye Feian ordered her to kneel on the ground and take the imperial concubine's pulse because she didn't dare to help Imperial Concubine Jin up.
Imperial Concubine Jin's pulse was in a mess. She was even weaker than the others who had examined her previously.
”Your Majesty, the imperial concubine was indeed trapped in a beauty trap, but this subject has also discovered that there is a poison within the concubine's body. The two poisons are at odds with each other.” This old official has also discovered this poison in the safe meridians of the other esteemed ladies. ”
There were two types of poisons in conflict with each other in her body.
The imperial physician stroked his beard and sighed. He and his colleagues in the Imperial Physician Courtyard had long since found this poison in the body of the He Imperial Palace's head when they were using their safety meridians. Because of the pressure, he didn't dare to say it out loud. Today was a great time to say it out loud. The empress had been keeping an eye on the progress of the case even after such a big incident had occurred. If they couldn't find out the reason, then the entire hospital would have to die.
”Where's the Queen? ”Where's the empress?”
Ye Feihan affectionately helped Imperial Concubine Jin up and smashed the teacup on the table into pieces. The sleeping eldest son in the cradle pursed his lips and sobbed.
The originally confident and confident empress was so scared that her palms were covered in cold sweat.
”His Majesty is so angry that it hurts his body. Be careful of his health.”
Imperial Concubine Jin had tears on her face as she hugged the child tenderly to comfort him.
”Your consort has failed her duty. Please punish her, Your Majesty.”
The empress tremblingly kneeled down and begged for forgiveness. Today, Imperial Concubine Jin made a move, and conceded.
Fortunately, before Ye Feian returned to the feudal fiefdom, he secretly contacted his father to work with him. His father had already agreed, hoping that he would help him on behalf of their cooperation.
Ye Feihan's face turned ashen as his dissatisfaction with the empress grew.
What a queen! Such a vicious heart!
Hmph, I definitely don't believe that this series of events had nothing to do with the Empress. It was either the empress's mastermind or she must have consented to it, or it would not have been so rampant.
”Tell me, what poison did the concubines in this harem suffer?”
