Next to the vase, the white paper strip did not change color.

On the bookshelf, the white notes have also changed.

until--

"Ah, it's changed color, it's changed color." Eunuch Zheng was holding a white piece of paper, pressing it against the incense burner.

A faint hint of red appeared on the note.

Ye Feng's eyes dimmed.

Doctor Gao immediately walked over and took the incense burner.

It was a small brass incense burner with a hollow auspicious cloud pattern. When the lid was opened, there was a small piece of incense left in the burnt ashes.

Doctor Gao took out the incense, put it to his nose and sniffed it, then drew a line on the white paper strip coated with lettuce juice with the incense, and then his face changed drastically.

"Yes, it is this kind of poison." He looked at Ye Feng solemnly, "Your Highness, this incense is mixed with poison powder."

Ye Feng glanced at Li Fuquan coldly and asked, "Li Fuquan, you are the one who takes care of Grandpa Huang's daily life. Where did this incense come from?"

Li Fuquan was shivering all over. When he met Ye Feng's cold gaze, his face turned pale. "This incense, how can incense be poisonous? I... I don't know..."

"Li Fuquan, you better think before you answer. I will find out where this poisonous spice came from sooner or later. Don't forget that Nanny Gui is someone close to the Queen. Even if she doesn't know the truth, she will definitely be able to find some clues."

"Your servant... Your servant dare not deceive Your Highness." Li Fuquan knelt on the ground and kowtowed. "Your Majesty, the spices used are all specially made and specified by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Even if you have a hundred heads, you dare not..."

Suddenly he lost his voice.

"What? Did you finally remember something?"

Ye Feng stared at him coldly, with a fierce look in his eyes.

As Li Fuquan got older, he became more and more afraid of death. A few years ago, when Prince Chen became more and more powerful in the court, he became worried, fearing that Prince Chen would settle accounts with him after ascending the throne, and he would die without a burial place. So, in private, he was very attentive to Prince Chen and the Queen. He thought he was doing it secretly and no one else knew about it, but he didn't know that both Fengqi Palace and Zhenguogong Mansion had his people planted there, and any slight movement would reach his ears.

If Li Fuquan had not posed a real threat to Grandpa Huang's safety, Ye Feng would have eliminated him long ago.

Now it seems that I was too soft-hearted. I thought that Li Fuquan was a capable old man beside the emperor, so I gave him some face. But I didn't expect that someone would take advantage of it.

Li Fuquan was panicking at this moment, his face was pale. He knelt on the ground and trembled all over. He even rolled over and crawled to Ye Feng's feet, crying bitterly: "Your Highness, Your Highness, I deserve to die, I deserve to die! Slave, I just remembered that the Ministry of Internal Affairs wanted to buy a batch of incense last month. The housekeeper of the Zhenguo Mansion found me and asked me to help to purchase a batch so that the wife of the Zhenguo Mansion could make some money. The incense was produced by the shop of the wife of the Zhenguo Mansion's family. Slave, I thought it was just some incense, a piece of cake, and I could sell it to the Zhenguo Mansion, so..."

"You dog slave!" Chu Ying was so angry that he kicked Li Fuquan to the ground.

Li Fuquan fell to the ground, then got up again, hugged Chu Ying's leg and cried, "Master Chu, I... I didn't know that the incense was poisonous. I swear, I didn't mean to harm your majesty, I..."

"Come here, take Li Fuquan away." Ye Feng ordered Chu Ying, "Is the steward of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion in the prison? Go and find out where the poison came from."

"Yes."

Ye Feng turned to face Gao Quting. His aura as a superior made people dare not look directly at him: "Doctor Gao, I order you to do your best to cure Grandpa Huang."

Gao Quting bowed and said, "I will do my best. Your Highness, rest assured, His Majesty will be fine."

Only then did Ye Feng let out a long breath.

Fortunately, the poison was discovered early, otherwise it would be hard to say whether the emperor could survive this disaster.

If the poisoning is serious, it would take ten days to get from the capital to Xilin County by horse speed. How could the emperor last until Ke'er came to the rescue?

Suddenly, Ye Feng's heart trembled.

Why did he think of Ke'er again?

Half an hour later, Chu Ying came back.

Under severe torture, the steward of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion confessed the source of the poison.

"Medicine King Valley?" Ye Feng was startled when he heard this and glanced at Chu Ying.

Chu Ying usually dealt with people from the underworld, and he explained, "Your Highness, this Medicine King Valley only became famous twenty years ago. It is said to be a mysterious gang, and the people in it are good at medicine and poisons. The leader of the valley is very mysterious, and almost no one in the underworld knows whether he is a man or a woman. However, their medical skills are indeed very good, and many difficult and serious diseases have been cured by them."

“So, Yaowang Valley is also in collusion with Chen Wu?” Ye Feng said coldly.

Chu Ying pursed her lips, looked at Ye Feng's expression, and said hesitantly: "Actually...actually, there is one more thing I want to report to Your Highness."

"what's up?"

Chu Ying gritted his teeth and said, "When His Royal Highness Prince Jing fell off his horse, it was also the work of Medicine King Valley."

"Bang!" Ye Feng accidentally knocked over a white jade cup on the table.

He suppressed the raging anger in his chest and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Go on!"

"Yes." Chu Ying saw Ye Feng lose his composure and felt bitter and angry. He calmed himself down and continued, "Eighteen years ago, Yaowang Valley gave King Chen a poison. This poison is colorless and tasteless. It is put in the horse feed. The horse will not react on the spot after eating it. However, after a fierce run, the poison gradually takes effect. As the blood flows and invades the horse's head, the horse will go crazy. It was because of this that His Royal Highness King Jing fell off the horse and had his legs broken by the horse."

As soon as the words fell, the room fell silent.

Doctor Gao sighed inwardly.

When King Jing fell off his horse, the whole court was shocked. His Majesty was furious and suspected that the horse had been tampered with. However, he sent people to check it repeatedly and found nothing. The horse was one of the several Ferghana horses presented to Emperor Zheng'an by Wusha State. Emperor Zheng'an gave it to King Jing. King Jing loved it like a treasure. But because King Jing fell off his horse, Emperor Zheng'an was furious and hunted the horse down, and almost broke off relations with Wusha State.

Unexpectedly, someone had tampered with the horse.

What a pity for a BMW.

It's a pity for a prince who was in his prime and was about to realize his ambitions.

“Did the poison that the Empress Dowager was infected with also come from Medicine King Valley?” Ye Feng clenched his fists tightly.

Nanny Gui only knew that the poison that the Royal Grandmother was poisoned with was given by Shi Hanyu, and that the poison was obtained by Shi Hanyu through the then Duke of Zhenguo. It was unknown whether it was from Yaowang Valley. However, the Royal Grandfather was poisoned with the same poison as the Royal Grandmother, and the poison was likely to have come from the same place.

"I have also asked about this. The poison that Concubine Yu was poisoned with did indeed come from Medicine King Valley. However, at that time, the poison came from Medicine King Valley, and Medicine King Valley had not yet come into contact with the Zhenguo Mansion."

“No matter it was unintentional at first or intentional later, Yaowang Valley is the murderer and my enemy! I must destroy it!” Ye Feng slammed his hand hard on the jade table.

The jade cup was shaken and fell off the jade table, smashed to the ground and broke into several pieces.
