The princess returns strongly, and the divorced regent is busy chasing his wife
Chapter 367 You are there at the critical moment
Ouyang Miaoling followed the eunuch to the queen's bedroom.
The palace maids, eunuchs and maids were all kneeling on the ground, and the imperial physician buried his head and kowtowed to beg for mercy.
"Aunt Royal, I remember your medical skills. I would like to ask you to take a look at the Queen. Can I ask you not to?" The emperor did not use a commanding tone, but spoke to Ouyang Miaoling in a negotiating tone.
"Your Majesty, it's not impossible for me to treat the Queen, but I would like to have a word with Your Majesty." Ouyang Miaoling made her request, and the Emperor agreed without any hesitation.
So they moved to another place and dismissed their attendants so that no one would know what they were talking about.
When the two of them came out, the emperor's face was ashen and he exuded a cold aura that made people shudder.
Ouyang Miaoling walked straight to the queen's bed and began to treat her. Sure enough, the poison in the queen's body was as she had guessed.
Ouyang Miaoling used her sleeves as a cover to take out a detoxification pill from the space and was about to feed it into the queen's mouth.
The nanny beside the queen stopped her directly: "Wait...Princess...what are you feeding the queen?"
"Antidote...The Queen has been poisoned. If we don't give her the antidote, will she just wait to die?" Ouyang Miaoling said disdainfully.
"Forgive me for my disrespect, but why does the princess carry the antidote with her?" the old nanny questioned Ouyang Miaoling.
Ouyang Miaoling did not answer her but glanced in the direction of the emperor. The emperor immediately understood and waved his hand to call over two young eunuchs who took the old maid away.
"Your Majesty...you have to do something for my queen, right? It was the Regent Princess who poisoned my queen, and she must not be allowed to give the queen the poisonous antidote." The old nanny had been dragged out by the young eunuch, but she did not forget to loudly complain.
Without the old nanny's obstruction, Ouyang Miaoling successfully fed the antidote into the queen's mouth.
After a while, the queen slowly woke up, opened her eyes and saw the emperor was beside her. She immediately threw herself into the emperor's arms, crying bitterly.
"Your Majesty...you have to make the decision for me...someone wants to harm me, Your Majesty, I'm scared." The emperor listened attentively to the queen's crying, with no expression on his face.
"Then who does the Queen suspect wants to harm you and poison you?" The emperor said coldly, without any warmth in his words.
"I don't know...but I noticed that during the banquet, the imperial aunt left the banquet and came back with the palace maid who served the dishes." Although the queen did not explain it, anyone with a discerning eye could understand that the queen's implication was about the Regent Princess.
"Does the Queen suspect that the Imperial Auntie poisoned you?" the Emperor asked coldly.
"I dare not. I just don't want to be poisoned for no reason. Please, Your Majesty, take charge." The Queen's tone was full of grievance.
"According to the Queen, how should this matter be handled?" the Emperor asked.
"Your Majesty, since the Royal Aunt is a suspect, why not hand her over to the Ministry of Punishment for handling? If the Royal Aunt is innocent, they will never dare to wrongly accuse her." There was a sinister flash in the Queen's eyes. She knew the methods of the Ministry of Punishment. Even if the Regent Princess was innocent, she would be skinned alive after their interrogation.
"Is the Queen going to force a confession?" The voice came from outside. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall man in a python robe walking in.
He walked up to Ouyang Miaoling, gently took her hand and said, "I'll take you back to the palace." The person who came was Nangong Mingxuan.
"Your Majesty...I'm taking the princess back, and the mess here is left to you to clean up," Nangong Mingxuan said to the emperor in a light tone, then he pulled Ouyang Miaoling and turned away.
The queen looked at the two men's departing backs and trembled with anger, but she did not dare to lose her temper and could only glare at them fiercely.
The emperor looked at their departing backs helplessly, then looked at the queen angrily.
"Your Majesty, she is a suspect, but they let the Regent take her away like that. They are committing treason and have no respect for the monarch," the Queen said angrily.
"Shut up, you ignorant woman who is always causing trouble but can't do anything good"
"Before I detoxified you, the Imperial Aunt had already seen through your plan and told me everything. I didn't expect that after you woke up, you would be so vicious as to accuse the Imperial Aunt. You are so stupid that you'd rather die." The Emperor angrily waved his sleeves and left, leaving the Queen slumped on the bed.
"Impossible, how could she know? She obviously looks so stupid, how could it be possible?" The Queen was unwilling to believe that her carefully planned plan would be discovered so early by Ouyang Miaoling.
Her plan was to have someone put some poison powder first, but this was not her real purpose, because she knew that Ouyang Miaoling was skilled in medicine, and this little poison would not be a problem for her.
Her real plan was to poison herself and then put the blame on her. After the first use of the poison powder, she thought Ouyang Miaoling would definitely let down her guard and underestimate the enemy, so her plan would be able to be implemented seamlessly.
But what she didn't expect was that Ouyang Miaoling had already seen through her plan and reported it to the emperor before detoxifying her.
It turned out that she had been watching her acting like a clown in front of the emperor. It was unbearable. She swore that she would never reconcile with Ouyang Miaoling in the future.
After Nangong Mingxuan brought Ouyang Miaoling back to the palace, he was worried that she would be frightened, so he held her hand tightly all the way.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Nangong Mingxuan comforted softly.
Ouyang Miaoling nodded slightly, but her heart was still unsettled. She had not expected the palace to be so complicated and people's hearts to be so unpredictable.
"There must be something fishy about this matter. I will investigate it thoroughly." Nangong Mingxuan said with a firm look in his eyes.
Ouyang Miaoling looked at him gratefully, "Thank you, Your Highness. But there is no need to do this, the Emperor already knows about it."
Nangong Mingxuan smiled and patted her hands. "With Ling'er's intelligence, how can you be a match for those dirty tricks in the harem?"
"Although I am not afraid of their despicable means, I also don't want to engage in intrigue with those people all day long," Ouyang Miaoling said seriously.
"I know... I promise you that this kind of thing will never happen again, and I will not tolerate this matter ending like this." A hint of ruthlessness flashed across Nangong Mingxuan's eyes.
"What do you want to do?" Ouyang Miaoling asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, Ling'er. It's because I've been busy looking for you these years and not paying attention to government affairs that some people with ulterior motives feel they can dominate me. Some people even have evil ambitions and want to replace me. I know all of this."
"The reason why I have been tolerating them is because they have not harmed the court. They are just using some petty tricks to fight for power. What happened today has made me see clearly that they are not just using some petty tricks. They have already expanded their ambitions and are very selfish. I can no longer sit idly by and watch."
