Shen Wanwan resisted the urge to flick his forehead and said with a smile: "Imperial Physician Liu is knowledgeable, but the people present are not doctors, so not everyone can understand this principle. Then, can Imperial Physician Liu explain the reason?"

Imperial Physician Liu snorted, "If a person is poisoned after death, the poison will only stay in the throat and will not enter the heart."

The queen was unhappy after hearing this, "Is there no special poison?"

Shen Wanwan: [This queen is stupid, right? The person is dead, but the digestive system is still functioning? The blood is still circulating? ]

System: [Host, stay calm. The ancients’ understanding of life science has not yet evolved to that level.]

If Shen Wanwan had said this, Imperial Physician Liu would probably have responded with a retort.

But the person who was speaking was the queen, so Imperial Physician Liu could only patiently continue to explain, "Your Majesty, there is no such poison!"

Such a sure answer?

It seems that the medical skills of the Dawu Dynasty are really not that good!

Shen Wanwan couldn't help but complain: [The medical level in ancient times is really worrying. Even a doctor of this level can get into the official system! ]

The system agreed: [Host, you are right. I think his medical skills are not even one tenth of yours! ]

Shen Wanwan retorted: [With his medical skills, he is only one tenth of mine? You look down on me! ]

Xie Jingchuan was shocked after hearing this.

Imperial Physician Liu’s medical skills are among the best in the palace, is that all?

Not even one tenth of Shen Wanwan’s?

So how good are her medical skills?

At this moment, the emperor spoke up: "Liu Imperial Physician, tell me, did the Seventh Prince die of poisoning?"

When asked by the emperor, Imperial Physician Liu was a little slow. He stammered, "This old minister...this old minister has not carefully examined the body of the Seventh Prince, so...so I cannot be sure."

When the emperor heard this, his face darkened: "Liu Imperial Physician, I order you to carefully examine the Seventh Prince's body now and give me a clear answer!"

When Imperial Physician Liu heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he secretly cursed himself for not being able to control his arrogance just now.

Now that the emperor’s order has come down, if I can’t find out the truth, I will be committing a serious crime punishable by death!

At this moment, Eunuch Chen suddenly spoke up: "Your Majesty, actually...actually the Seventh Prince was poisoned and then slapped to death by the Regent."

This sudden change of confession made the system instantly confused: [Oh my god, is this father-in-law addicted to acting, or did he restart due to insufficient memory? ]

Shen Wanwan almost couldn't help laughing out loud: "This Eunuch Chen is such a funny guy, one moment he said the Regent beat him to death, the next moment he said he was poisoned and then beaten to death, does he think this is acting?"

The emperor's veins popped out when he heard this.

"You little dog slave! What was the cause of the Seventh Prince's death?"

Eunuch Chen's mouth trembled. "I...I did see the Regent standing beside the Seventh Prince's bed when I entered the room. The Seventh Prince was vomiting blood. I thought the Regent was a skilled martial artist and must have killed the Seventh Prince with one blow. But then I saw the medicine bottle next to the Seventh Prince. I thought the Seventh Prince was poisoned first and then beaten to death."

Anyway, no matter how Xie Zhuoyu died, the murderer must be the Regent.

"Are you sure that the Regent poisoned the Seventh Prince? If you lie in front of the Emperor, your entire clan will be executed!" Shen Wanwan asked Eunuch Chen in a threatening tone!

The latter didn't dare to speak and looked at the queen beside him with some guilt.

Shen Wanwan was still holding a poison testing needle in her hand, which was irrefutable evidence of the cause of death of the Seventh Prince.

Xie Jingchuan has to take the blame for the poisoning!

So, the queen calmly looked at Eunuch Chen, closed her eyelids heavily, and signaled him to testify that Xie Jingchuan was the murderer.

Unexpectedly, Shen Wanwan saw all of this.

"I am sure! The Seventh Prince was poisoned to death by the Regent!"

With the Queen's reassurance, Eunuch Chen's voice became much louder.

Little did they know that Shen Wanwan was waiting for these two here.

Then, Shen Wanwan raised the poison-testing silver needle in her hand and said mysteriously, "Your Majesty, please look at this needle."

Although puzzled, the emperor still asked the eunuch Li beside him to bring the silver needle to him on a tray.

The emperor was confused: "Is there something wrong with this needle?"

Shen Wanwan raised her lips into a sly smile: "Eunuch Li, you will know once you experience it yourself."

This stumped Eunuch Li!

Isn't this poisonous?

Moreover, the seventh prince suffers from leprosy. What if I get infected too?

Eunuch Li thought about his contact with Shen Wanwan many times from beginning to end!

He has never offended this ancestor!

"Your Majesty...this..." Eunuch Li's hands were shaking!

But the emperor just nodded, and Eunuch Li touched the silver needle with the determination to die.

"Huh?" The silver needle actually faded?

This time Eunuch Li was even less afraid. He picked up the silver needle and wiped it, and the black stuff got on his hands.

He was unusually brave and brought the silver needle to his nose and smelled it.

"Your Majesty... This smells like thick ink!"

Everyone: Thick ink? ?

Isn't it the silver needle that is used to test poison? Why is it thick ink?

The queen looked at Shen Wanwan in disbelief!

"Miss Shen, what is going on?" The emperor was exhausted by all this back and forth.

Shen Wanwan looked back at the Queen with a provocative look in her eyes, "I didn't even touch the Seventh Prince. I had already coated this silver needle with thick ink in advance, which means I never tested for poison from the beginning to the end!"

Everyone:! ! ! !

When the queen heard this, she was immediately flustered: "Shen Wanwan, what are you talking about?"

Shen Wanwan ignored her and continued, "Your Majesty, if the Seventh Prince really died of poisoning, then this silver needle should be able to detect the poison. But the fact is, it detected nothing. This shows that the Seventh Prince did not die of poisoning."

The emperor frowned after hearing this: "So what you mean is that the Seventh Prince was beaten to death by the Regent?"

After all this time, you're back to square one?

Shen Wanwan shook her head: "Your Majesty, I did not say that the Seventh Prince was beaten to death by the Regent. I just want to say that Eunuch Chen's testimony is not credible. As for the real cause of death of the Seventh Prince, we need to wait for Imperial Physician Liu to examine it carefully before we can know."

After hearing this, Eunuch Chen kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, I dare not lie! I really saw the Regent kill the Seventh Prince!"

Eunuch Chen's testimony kept changing, and the court officials were all talking about it.

The emperor also understood that this matter was already full of strangeness on the surface.

Although he was anxious to take back the military power and kill Xie Jingchuan!

But there must be enough evidence!

If he openly shows favoritism in the court, as the king of a country, the world will not tolerate the king's cruel killing of his brothers!

"Imperial Physician Liu, I allow you to perform an autopsy. I want to know how the seventh prince died!" the emperor said.
