My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 594 Investigation in the Palace

"Your Majesty, I have been practicing medicine for most of my life and have done a lot of research on the properties of medicine. Although I still don't know how this pill was prepared, the few medicines I tasted are definitely the best medicine in the house!"

Dr. Wang said with great certainty.

He has been practicing medicine for so many years. If he can't even identify this kind of medicine, he might as well kill him with a piece of tofu.

Zhu Zhanhe immediately frowned when he heard this. This medicine was found on Zhu Gaochi's bed. It is likely that Zhu Gaochi accidentally dropped one while taking it. In other words, Zhu Gaochi probably took this medicine before his death. That's why he died on a woman's belly. After all, given his physical condition, taking this kind of tiger and wolf medicine is simply asking for death.

"Your Majesty, where did you get this medicine? Could it be..."

Doctor Wang was not stupid. Suddenly he thought of a possibility and was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. He didn't dare to ask any more questions in the middle of the question.

"Physician Wang, what I just said must be kept strictly confidential, and you must not let it out even if you bring it to the coffin, otherwise you know the consequences!"

Zhu Zhanhe warned in a low voice.

"Yes! I understand, Your Majesty, you didn't say anything just now, and I didn't hear anything!"

Dr. Wang Yu was an experienced man. He immediately raised his hands and swore. Cold sweat was still pouring out from his forehead when he spoke. He regretted it so much now that he shouldn't have asked the last sentence.

"Very good, you go down first!"

Zhu Zhanhe waved the other person to leave, and Wang Yuyi immediately agreed, and then quickly retreated.

After Dr. Wang left, Zhu Zhanhe looked at the pill in his hand and fell into deep thought again.

Wang Yuyi can guarantee that this pill definitely did not come from Taiyuan Hospital, so it could only have been given to Zhu Gaochi privately by someone else. Unfortunately, Zhu Gaochi is gone now, otherwise you would have known it by asking him directly.

But there are other ways. For example, the people around Zhu Gaochi. As the emperor, there will be people following Zhu Gaochi from morning to night, especially some close eunuchs who are always with Zhu Gaochi, so they are likely to know about this pill. The origin of.

However, before investigating this matter, Zhu Zhanhe must obtain the consent of one person, and that is Queen Zhang. After all, she is the master of the harem, and now she is in charge of the overall affairs of the government for Zhu Gaochi. Without her nod, Zhu Zhanhe would not be able to do anything. It is good to interrogate the people around Zhu Gaochi.

After thinking about this, Zhu Zhanhe immediately came to the front hall.

Empress Zhang was discussing matters with Xia Yuanji and the other three. When she saw Zhu Zhanhe coming back, she immediately said: "Zhanhe, the news of uncle Yi's death cannot be spread out for the time being. I think we can first announce to the outside world that your majesty is ill. Everything is business as usual, and government affairs will be left to the cabinet, so we should be able to hide them for a while."

"Let your mother-in-law decide everything!"

Zhu Zhanhe cupped his hands and said, in fact, after Zhang Fu and the others led troops to guard the four sides of the capital, the situation had stabilized. Even if some people knew about Zhu Gaochi's death, there would not be any big disturbance.

Seeing that Zhu Zhanhe had no objection to her arrangement, Empress Zhang also showed a satisfied smile, and she praised Zhu Zhanhe even more in her heart. No wonder her son couldn't compete with him. Zhu Zhanhe's tolerance alone was not Zhu Zhanhe's. Zhan Ji can compare.

"Auntie, I have something I want to talk to you about alone!"

Zhu Zhanhe suddenly spoke at this time, and while speaking, he looked at Xia Yuanji and the other three people next to him.

Zhu Gaochi died in such a disgraceful way, and now an aphrodisiac was found on his bed. The less people know about this, the better.

"Sir, please retire!"

Xia Yuanji and the other three were also very knowledgeable. Since Zhu Zhanhe didn't want them to know the content of the discussion, it must have something to do with the palace, especially the cause of Zhu Gaochi's death. They didn't want to get involved too much, lest they get into unnecessary trouble.So Xia Yuanji and the others left the hall, and Queen Zhang also asked the people around her to step back.

At this time, Zhu Zhanhe took out the pills and said, "Mother, please look, I just found this under my uncle's pillow!"

"What is this?"

Empress Zhang couldn't help but frown and asked when she saw the pills in Zhu Zhanhe's palm.

"This is a pill. I just asked Doctor Wang to verify it and confirmed that it is a Chinese medicine!"

Zhu Zhanhe replied truthfully.

"what!"

After hearing this, Queen Zhang suddenly stood up from her chair, with an expression of disbelief on her face.

"Impossible. How could the Imperial Hospital prescribe this kind of medicine to His Majesty?"

However, Empress Zhang reacted quickly and immediately shook her head and asked. She was in charge of the harem and was very aware of Zhu Gaochi's physical condition. Every time the Taiyuan Hospital prescribed medicine for Zhu Gaochi, she had to obtain her consent.

"This pill is indeed not from Taiyuan Hospital. Doctor Wang said that Taiyuan Hospital has no records, so this pill can only be given to the uncle by an outsider!"

Zhu Zhanhe spoke out his analysis.

"An outsider? Who is it? Could it be the third child!"

Empress Zhang thought of Zhu Gaosui first, which was not her fault. After all, Zhu Gaosui had poisoned Zhu Gaochi before. With such a criminal record, it was difficult for Empress Zhang not to doubt him.

What's more, Zhu Gaoji had secretly sent North Korean beauties to Zhu Gaochi before, and Queen Zhang knew very well that Zhu Gaochi died on the belly of one of the North Korean beauties. Now, aphrodisiac pills were found on Zhu Gaochi's bed, so Zhu Gaoji must be suspected. biggest.

"I'm not sure yet, but no matter how you look at it, the third uncle is the most suspicious person. I think we can interrogate the eunuchs and maids around the uncle. They may know more about the situation."

Zhu Zhanhe spoke out his thoughts.

"This……"

Empress Zhang showed a hesitant expression when she heard this. Logically speaking, she should find out the cause of Zhu Gaochi's death as a couple. However, she was worried that Zhu Zhanhe's investigation would make too much noise. If there was any bad news, then The entire royal family will become the laughing stock of outsiders.

"Don't worry, Auntie. I only need to interrogate a few people around my uncle, and I will never alert anyone else. No matter what I find, I will report it to you as soon as possible. It's up to you, Auntie, to decide how to deal with it!"

Zhu Zhanhe also guessed the hesitation in Queen Zhang's heart, so he assured her.

Hearing what Zhu Zhanhe said, Empress Zhang also gave up her worries and nodded immediately: "Okay! Your Majesty's death was too sudden. In fact, I have some doubts in my heart. Since you have discovered the doubts, then help me investigate. Go down, don’t let His Majesty die in an unknown way!”

"Nephew obeys!"

Zhu Zhanhe immediately agreed, then said goodbye and left. Empress Zhang also sent a few confidants to follow Zhu Zhanhe. After all, this was the harem, and Zhu Zhanhe could not investigate the case alone, even if it was inconvenient for Zhu Zhanhe Feel free to move around.
