God's Daughter, Queen of Miraculous Medicine
Chapter 354: Phantom Dream
After finishing the meal, the emperor waved his hand gently, signaling the rest of the people to leave first.
Soon, Jun Moyuan and Lu Tingyan were the only ones left in the huge palace.
The emperor took a deep breath and said slowly: "Mother, after Yan took my pulse today, she found that I was suffering from a chronic poison, but the quack doctors in the Imperial Hospital were unable to detect anything." His words could hardly conceal his anger and disappointment.
The Queen Mother was shocked when she heard this. Her originally kind and gentle face suddenly became solemn. She asked anxiously, "My son, is there an antidote for this poison? Also, is there anyone who suspects it?"
The Emperor quickly comforted the Queen Mother, saying, "Don't worry too much, Mother. I have already taken the antidote given by Miss Yan, and I am fine now. As for the suspect... I think it is most likely Concubine Su who did it."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she couldn't help but frowned and asked, "My son, why do you think so?"
The emperor subconsciously lowered his voice, as if afraid of being heard by others, and whispered: "Think about it, mother, in the past few years, Concubine Su's family has been making small moves, and I have been on guard against this. Besides, the poison this time is very obscure and secretive. If it weren't for Yan's superb medical skills and unique vision, I'm afraid it would be difficult to detect the clues. And Concubine Su has always been very self-righteous and ambitious. She has always wanted to let Yu'er replace Yuan'er. In my opinion, she is completely likely to use such a sinister and vicious method to achieve her goal."
Jun Moyuan bowed to the Queen Mother with a solemn expression, and then slowly said, "Grandmother, the current situation is quite tricky. The enemy is hiding in the dark, and we don't know their true identity and purpose. At this moment, if we act rashly, not only will we fail to find the mastermind behind the scenes, but it will also easily alert the enemy. Therefore, my grandson believes that we should secretly investigate this matter and take action after we have enough evidence, so as to ensure that we will hit the target with one blow."
The emperor frowned slightly and said, "If it weren't for Miss Yan checking Zhen's pulse, I would have been completely unaware of this matter and would have been poisoned without knowing it."
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother turned her gaze to Lu Tingyan, her eyes full of concern, and asked, "Child, tell me quickly, what kind of poison did the Emperor take?"
Lu Tingyan said, "Your Majesty, this poison is called 'Dream of the Dark'. The poisoned person will not show obvious symptoms at first, but will only slowly feel the body becoming weaker and the mental state will deteriorate. However, if the poisoning continues for a long time without effective treatment, the toxin will corrode the internal organs and eventually leave in the sleep."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she was immediately furious. She slammed the table and shouted, "How dare someone so brazenly plot to murder the Emperor? He deserves death! I will tear him into pieces to vent my hatred!"
Lu Tingyan hurriedly advised: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, please calm down. The most important thing at the moment is to find out the truth as soon as possible and find out the real culprit behind the scenes. I hope Your Majesty and the Queen Mother can think calmly and make long-term plans."
The emperor nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "What Miss Yan said is very true. Yuan'er, you come to investigate this matter, and be careful."
Jun Moyuan bowed and responded respectfully: "Father, I know the interests involved very well. I will act carefully and never give the enemy any chance to take advantage of me."
The Queen Mother was worried and frowned, and she warned with concern: "My son, you must be more careful in this investigation. Don't be careless and underestimate the enemy like before, and don't fall into the trap set by others again."
The Emperor quickly comforted the Queen Mother, saying, "Please be at ease, Mother. I will be very careful and cautious and think twice before doing anything. I will never let you worry about me."
The Queen Mother turned around and took Lu Tingyan's slender and tender little hand, and said with great emotion: "Yan girl, today is really thanks to you! If it weren't for your sharp eyes and timely detection of the existence of the poison, I'm afraid the consequences would be disastrous!"
Lu Tingyan lowered her head modestly and said softly, "Your Majesty, thank you for your praise. It is my duty to help the Emperor and the Empress Dowager solve their problems. I dare not take credit for it."
The Queen Mother smiled and shook her head, praising: "You are not only extremely intelligent and quick-witted, but also kind-hearted and benevolent. Yuan'er is blessed to have you by his side in his previous life!"
Hearing this, Lu Tingyan blushed and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, you really are too kind to me..."
Seeing this, the Queen Mother smiled even more kindly, turned her head to look at the Emperor, and continued: "My son, Miss Yan saved your life this time, it is reasonable and proper that she should be rewarded generously!"
Jun Moyuan also quickly echoed, "Grandmother, Yan'er saved my life. If it weren't for Yan'er's rescue, the grass on my grave would have been as tall as my own. You should give her a generous reward to honor her for her contribution."
The Queen Mother excitedly said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes!"
The emperor nodded slightly and asked respectfully, "Then according to your mother's opinion, how should I reward you?"
