Regent, the princess you found is a treasure
Chapter 60: Someone is causing trouble at Jisheng Hall
In recent days, the atmosphere in the palace has been extremely tense, and everyone is as nervous as a frightened bird. Not only that, the guards have increased their patrols to twice their usual strength, and the number of secret guards has also increased. After nightfall, they stick to their posts, staring at the surroundings without blinking, and will never miss even the slightest clue of a tremor.
Emperor Yuanwu had not stepped out of Concubine Rou's bedroom for several days in a row. Only Concubine Rou and Eunuch Jiang were serving him in the room, and the rest of the servants were not allowed to enter.
The strange and indelible handwriting always lingered on the emperor's face, making Xuan Jingyu's temperament even more violent and erratic. Although Concubine Rou and Eunuch Jiang did their best to serve him, they were still terrified.
The affairs of the court were naturally handed over to the regent, assisted by the crown prince. It was announced to the outside that the emperor was in poor health, and upon hearing the news, the ministers burned incense and prayed to God for his speedy recovery.
However, some cunning and perceptive people noticed that there was something unusual in the atmosphere in the palace - the number of imperial guards patrolling the Forbidden Palace was twice as many as before!
When the empress heard that the emperor was in poor health and had been recuperating in Concubine Rou's Yuhan Palace, she was already confused. When she went to attend to him, she was sent back by the emperor and did not even see him. Not only her, but the other concubines could not even enter the gate of Yuhan Palace.
Even the Regent, the Crown Prince, the Second Prince and the Third Prince were refused an audience with the Emperor when they came to visit him. It was all so weird that people couldn't help but feel suspicious.
The most anxious among them was the Third Prince. His mother was tending to the Emperor while he was ill. Now, not only could he not see the Emperor, he couldn't even see his mother. When he asked the palace maids and eunuchs in Yuhan Palace, they all kept their mouths shut.
Only Xuan Moyin knew clearly that Su Luoxue had written the three big words "bastard" on his brother's face, so he had to pretend to be sick and hide, and he definitely couldn't go out and see anyone.
It's true, Xuan Moyin felt very relieved when Su Luoxue played a trick on the emperor. He was already laughing in his heart, but his face was still serious and cold. It was really hard for him to pretend.
Su Luoxue didn't care about the chaos in the palace. She was busy treating patients in Jishengtang every day and had no time to care about that. Only when Xuan Moyin came back would he talk to her.
Today, as usual, there was an endless stream of people coming to consult and seek medical treatment. Now, not only ordinary people in the capital, but also many people from surrounding towns drove horse-drawn carriages and ox-drawn carts to come.
Among these people, there were both the poor and the wealthy. They would send their servants to wait in line while they themselves would sit in the carriage and wait until it was their turn before getting off the carriage to see the doctor.
All this is because the raw materials of the pills made by Su Luoxue were all taken from the rare medicinal materials in her personal space, and many repackaged modern Western medicines were mixed in.
In this way, the efficacy of the medicine is excellent. Many patients have suffered from illness for a long time, but once they take Su Luoxue's medicine, those with mild illnesses will recover immediately, and those with slightly more serious illnesses will gradually get better.
After many patients recovered from their illnesses, they still did not forget to write a letter to share with their relatives and friends far away. In a short time, Su Luoxue's reputation as a "miracle doctor" spread like wildfire, and Jishengtang also became famous.
Just as Su Luoxue and Doctor Liu were concentrating on diagnosing a patient, they suddenly caught a glimpse of two young men rushing over with a middle-aged man on their backs. The two men staggered and looked nervous, as if they were carrying a heavy burden. When they got close, they knocked the middle-aged man to the ground without hesitation.
Then, two muffled "thumps" were heard, and the two young men knelt down in front of the middle-aged man, tears streaming down their cheeks, crying sadly, "This is our father! He just took the medicine prescribed by Jishengtang, and he died in an instant! We have asked others to examine the body, and it is confirmed that father died of poisoning! Therefore, we suspect that there is something wrong with the medicine from Jishengtang!"
Their voices were filled with grief and sorrow, echoing in the air, making people feel sad. The busy people around were also attracted and stopped to watch and whispered. For a moment, the whole scene became extremely chaotic.
"Dad, you died so unjustly. Your son must seek justice for you." The two people continued to cry.
Doctor Liu was surprised. Although the pills and herbs of Jishengtang were all brought by the boss, he had checked them secretly. Those herbs and pills were all good medicines, and it was impossible for them to be there.
Su Luoxue frowned. She walked to the middle-aged man on the ground, squatted down and checked his eyes, mouth, nose, etc. She found that the man had indeed died of poisoning. There were traces of black blood flowing from the corners of his mouth and nasal cavity. She was also sure that the man had been fed with Croton and died.
"Go report to the authorities." Su Luoxue called over a disguised guard from the Prince Regent's Palace, who quickly left upon hearing the order.
"We are not afraid of reporting to the authorities. My father died after taking the medicine from your Jishengtang. I want the government to give us justice." One of the men stood up and said to Su Luoxue aggressively.
At this time, Aniu, Meixiang and Banxia also ran out after hearing the noise. When the three of them saw the man's posture, they immediately stood in front of Su Luoxue.
Su Luoxue looked at the actions of these three people and felt warm in her heart. She knew that they were afraid that she would be bullied, so they used their bodies to protect her.
She gently pushed the three people aside and gave them a reassuring look. You know, there are still many guards from the Regent's Palace dressed in ordinary people's clothes here! Even if Xuan Moyin was not here, as long as someone dared to harm Su Luoxue, they would protect her, because she had seen several guards from the Regent's Palace quietly standing behind the two men, but they were all in disguise, so she didn't know anything else.
"I'm afraid this is not your father!" Su Luoxue said.
"What did you say? This is our father. Your medicine poisoned our father to death. Not only do you not admit it, you also slander us like this!" another man said angrily.
Su Luoxue looked at the two people who were furious and said slowly: "Everyone has a filial and grateful heart towards their parents. Even the most vicious people will carefully protect the bodies of their parents even if their parents have passed away. But when you just came, you put your father down and threw him down heavily without caring at all. Could this be your father?"
When the onlookers heard Su Luoxue say this, they realized that the two men had indeed treated the body of their so-called father on the ground in the same way. They couldn't help but start talking about it, and they all started to suspect and accuse them.
Facing the accusations of the crowd, the two men were obviously beginning to panic, but they still pretended to be calm and said loudly: "You, don't talk nonsense, the officials will come and give us justice, just wait for us."
And across the street from Jishengtang, at the entrance of Huichuntang, a sneaky man was watching the progress of events here.
