Chapter 290 Thorough investigation of the palace
Eunuch Rong knew that it was Ning Youbei who had something to say to the emperor alone, so he withdrew.

When there were only two people, the emperor said angrily: "What is so mysterious, even Rong Dehai has to be pushed aside."

Ning Youbei told the emperor about Su Yingxue's discovery of Gu worms in the palace.

"Su Zhuangzhu said that there were many people at that time, not only the imperial doctors, but also the empress and imperial concubine were there. She was anxious to detoxify you, so she didn't say anything on the spot."

The emperor was so angry that he got out of bed a few times, "The murderer behind the poisoning incident has not been found out yet, but I didn't expect someone to want to poison me again. They all wish that I would die early."

Ning Youbei was also helpless.

Brother Huang just talked about his idea of ​​establishing himself as the emperor's younger brother, and it caused so many troubles.

"Brother Huang, what do you think we should do now?"

The emperor calmed down.

"Didn't you say that Master Su can sense Gu insects by raising a golden snake? Let her take the golden snake to the palace to investigate thoroughly, and just say that I entrusted her to investigate the person behind the scenes."

This is a good idea!It is possible not to alarm the person holding the Gu worm.

"I asked Ah Chu to accompany Master Su into the palace. She is pregnant. It would be bad if something happened to her."

It was only then that the emperor remembered that Su Yingxue was still pregnant with a child.

"It's really hard for her these few days. I heard from Rong Dehai that she poured two cups of blood to detoxify me."

"Yes, Su Zhuangzhu said that what you are poisoned is the baby wood flower poison that only grows in extremely cold places. She has rarely seen this kind of poison before. There is no time to prepare an antidote, so she can only use her blood to detoxify you."

The emperor asked: "Then have you ever asked her what would happen to me without her blood?"

Ningyou North Road:

"I asked in private, and she said that there are very few people in Dayu Kingdom who know this kind of baby tree flower poison. Even Yan Hong, who she brought out with one hand, only knows and can't make an antidote. Without her blood, even if Yan Hong was If you keep it under control, it can only last for three days."

What Su Yingxue said was not a lie, it's just that half a cup of blood can detoxify, but Su Yingxue put two cups of blood.Of course, she used other rare medicinal materials to balance the medicinal properties.

The emperor did not speak.

Ning Youbei looked at the emperor's face, Su Zhuangzhu also said a word: "In the north of Changqing country, there are baby wood flowers, but she is afraid that saying this will be suspected of provoking."

The emperor was slightly surprised: "You mean that the murderer behind the scenes colluded with Changqing state-owned enterprises?"

"That's not true. I just heard that Ah Chu said that the private army of King Jiangcheng is likely to be raised in Changqing Kingdom. If that's the case, I'm afraid he knows about the baby tree flower poison."

The emperor thought for a while before saying:

"Your doubts are not unreasonable. The reason why they chose this baby wood flower poison is because very few people in Dayu Kingdom have seen the baby wood flower poison. Even if they have, they will not be able to prepare an antidote in a short time. want my life.

It's just that they didn't expect that Su Zhuangzhu happened to be in Yudu.

Moreover, I suspect that my father was also poisoned by this kind of baby wood flower poison back then. "

……

Qu Chu soon accompanied Su Yingxue into the palace, accompanied by Yanhong.

The emperor called the imperial concubine, "I asked Master Su to find out the poisoner for me, and you take them to thoroughly search all the places in the palace."

The imperial concubine replied: "Then start with the concubine's palace."

The imperial concubine personally took Su Yingxue and Qu Chu to check the harem.After this investigation, Su Yingxue really found out several kinds of poisons, but for the time being, no baby wood flower poison was found.

The imperial concubine asked these people who possessed poison to be sent to the inner court department for interrogation.

Su Yingxue's purpose this time was not only to find out the poison, but also to find out the Gu worms. She passed by one palace after another with the little golden snake in her arms.

Walking into the queen's bedroom, the little golden snake in Su Yingxue's arms became restless.

Su Yingxue winked at Qu Chu, and Qu Chu knew that there were Gu worms in this palace.

Eunuch He stopped Qu Chu and his party, "This is the Queen's bedroom, you can't break into it casually."

The imperial concubine said: "I follow the emperor's order to thoroughly investigate the poisoner, and every place in the harem will be investigated."

Eunuch He raised his voice sharply, "Could it be possible that the Empress will poison Your Majesty?"

The imperial concubine said:

"I didn't mean that, I just ordered a thorough investigation. My palace was the first to be investigated. If the empress doesn't want to be criticized, please cooperate."

"But this is the bedroom of the Empress Dowager."

The imperial concubine was about to say something when Ruhua came out from the room, "Your Majesty told them to go in."

Qu Chu helped Su Yingxue into the Empress's bedroom, where the Empress was sitting on a chair in her dress.

The imperial concubine saluted.

Qu Chu helped Su Yingxue to walk in front of the queen, the golden snake in Su Yingxue's arms became more and more frantic.

Su Yingxue said: "I also ask your empress to forgive me. I am ordered by the emperor to investigate the poison first, and if I don't find it, I will apologize to my empress."

The queen sneered and said, "I want to see what you can find out?"

Su Yingxue really looked into it seriously. In fact, she was sensing the condition of the golden snake.

She found that the farther away from the queen, the quieter the golden snake was, and the closer it was to the queen, the more frenzied the golden snake was.

Su Yingxue whispered to Qu Chu: "On the empress, check if there is a small box on her."

Searching the queen's bedroom is different from searching the queen's body. If it is found out, it will be fine. If not, Qu Chu is afraid that he will be killed by Wei Guogong's group of ginseng.

Qu Chu didn't have so many worries, she believed in Ying Xue.

She went up to the Queen, caught her by surprise, and searched her.

Not only the queen was shocked by Qu Chu's arrogance, but even the imperial concubine was shocked.

"What are you doing? Do you still want to murder Bengong?"

As soon as the queen finished speaking, Qu Chu found a box from the queen.

Qu Chu handed the box to Su Yingxue, "Do you think this is it?"

Su Yingxue let the little golden snake feel it first, and it was indeed the box that made her feel restless.

Su Yingxue looked at the queen, "Ma'am, can you explain what's in this box?"

The queen's face changed drastically, she never thought that Qu Chu would dare to search her body.

Seeing the queen's situation, the imperial concubine also knew that something was wrong.She asked cautiously: "Master Su, what's going on?"

Su Yingxue opened the box, and inside was a pair of mother-child Gu worms.

Su Yingxue showed the box to the imperial concubine and the others, then closed the box, put the box on the table, and said to the imperial concubine, "Please come over, your majesty and the people from the imperial hospital."

Qu Chu added: "Please invite Duke Wei and his wife into the palace."

The imperial concubine knew that something big was about to happen, so she quickly asked Xiao Liuzi to deliver the letter, and she stared at the box herself.

The people in the queen's palace had been subdued by the people brought by the imperial concubine, the queen became quiet at this time, she just sat on the chair blankly without moving.

The emperor arrived with Wei Guogong and his wife, accompanied by a group of imperial doctors from the imperial hospital.
