The harem has been peaceful recently, and Gu Shijin himself has fallen ill, which has led to him neglecting his two children a lot. Upon hearing that the third prince and the fourth prince fainted, Gu Shijin almost fell down.

"What's going on? Where is the imperial physician?" Gu Shijin asked anxiously as he walked.

"My lady, I have asked someone to call the imperial physician."

"The third prince and the fourth prince were doing their homework in the study room, and the fourth prince suddenly fainted. The third prince rushed to call him, but just as he stood up he fainted too." Although the nanny was also panicked, she spoke very clearly.

Gu Shijin's heart trembled when he heard this. Both children fainted, so they were not sick.

Not sick...

Gu Shijin began to get scared when he thought about the two children being harmed again. Children are much weaker than adults. If...

Gu Shijin really didn't dare to think about it.

The imperial physician who was giving acupuncture to Gu Shijin was caught by people from Chenhua Palace halfway through his journey. The man didn't say what happened, so the imperial physician thought that something had happened to the Imperial Concubine. When he came back and saw that the Imperial Concubine was still fine, he just breathed a sigh of relief, but then he heard that something had happened to the two princes. He was so angry that he couldn't get up.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Linzi has gone to the Imperial Hospital to find other doctors." Xing Zhu said.

"Ah."

"First, let's check why the Third and Fourth Princes fainted." Gu Shijin said to the imperial physician in front of her. In this situation, she couldn't panic.

"Yes, ma'am."

The imperial physician first took the pulse of the two princes, and then looked at their eyes and mouths. Gu Shijin felt even more depressed when he watched his actions.

"How?" Gu Shijin asked.

"Your Majesty, the symptoms of the two princes look like... poisoning." The imperial physician said in fear and trepidation.

“How dare you!” Lu Junze heard the imperial physician’s words as soon as he came in and immediately shouted angrily.

"Your Majesty, please calm down." Everyone in Chenhua Palace knelt on the ground immediately.

"Where are the other doctors from the Imperial Hospital?" Lu Junze looked around and asked, "Why haven't they come yet?"

"Your Majesty, they are coming." At this moment, Xiao Linzi came back with the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau, led by Song Jibai again.

Song Jibai didn't understand. Logically speaking, the former dynasty and the harem were both controlled by Lu Junze, so how could the two princes be poisoned for no apparent reason?

Others may not know, but he knows that these two princes are guarded by secret guards.

"What are you standing there for? Check the pulses of the two princes." Lu Junze looked at the group of imperial doctors standing there in a daze, and became even angrier.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Song Jibai was pushed by the imperial physician behind him and was the first to go forward. Song Jibai sighed in his heart and saw how these imperial physicians were frightened by Lu Junze.

As soon as he came in, Song Jibai observed the conditions of the two little princes. The reason why he was not in a hurry was that he could see that there were no major problems with the two princes.

The pulse diagnosis results also confirmed his guess that they were indeed poisoned, but the poison was not strong, or the amount of poison the two princes were poisoned was very small.

"Your Majesty, the two princes have been poisoned by a chronic poison called 'Juesan'. They are not seriously poisoned now, and they will be fine once the poison is resolved." Song Jibai said without waiting for other imperial doctors to feel their pulse.

The other imperial doctors did not intend to blame him at all. Instead, they were very grateful.

"Can you cure it?" Lu Junze hugged Gu Shijin and patted her back gently. In fact, looking at Song Jibai's expression, he knew that he could cure the poison, but he still had to ask the person in his arms before he could feel at ease.

"'Jue San' should have no antidote, but the amount of poisoning the third and fourth princes suffered was small and the poisoning time was short, so it can be cured." Song Jibai said.

If a large amount of this poison is taken at one time, not to mention Song Jibai, even the King of Hell would not be able to cure it.

"Go ahead." Lu Junze waved his hand and asked him to go down.

"Yes, Wei Chen is resigning."

As soon as the imperial doctors left, the room suddenly became much more relaxed. Lu Junze looked at the people kneeling in the room with a sharp look, "Check for me, who gave these things to the third and fourth princes."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

To find out how the poisoning occurred, we must first investigate the people around the two princes. From the wet nurses and maids to the palace maids and eunuchs, all of them were taken away by Su Deyuan.

"Your Majesty, I don't think they are the ones who are poisoned in Chenhua Palace." Gu Shijin said. Although she was sick these days, the people in Chenhua Palace had been with Gu Shijin for many years, and Gu Shijin was simply not them.

There is another point. If they were people from Chenhua Palace, and they had been lurking in Chenhua Palace for so long to harm the two princes, they would not have poisoned them like this, but would have killed them directly at once. Otherwise, it would be unnecessary.

"I know what's going on." Lu Junze said. He didn't think it was someone from Chenhua Palace, but Lu Junze wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to stuff someone from Chenhua Palace again. He didn't want any more accidents to happen.

"Since it wasn't in Chenhua Palace, it's more likely that he was poisoned in the Shangshufang." After saying that, Gu Shijin was stunned for a moment. She tugged at Lu Junze's sleeve and said, "The emperor asked the imperial physician to go to Xiefang Palace to check on the princes and princesses."

Only after reading it can you determine whether the person behind the scenes is targeting all princes and princesses or just Ajin and Ayuan.

"Ah."

The people who did the work were quite quick. Song Jibai went to Xiefang Palace in person, and it turned out that the princes and princesses were all in good health, except for the third and fourth princes who were poisoned.

Gu Shijin was not very surprised when he knew the result, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

This flash of fierceness did not escape Lu Junze's eyes. He did not blame Gu Shijin. Instead, he patted Gu Shijin on the back and comforted him softly: "Don't worry, I will definitely find out who is behind this."

Gu Shijin: "Your Majesty, since they are only targeting Ajin and Ayuan, either Ajin and Ayuan are blocking their way, or Ajin and Ayuan have offended them."

"Ajin and Ayuan study in the Shangshufang in the morning, and in the afternoon they basically do their homework in Chenhua Palace or go to Xiefang Palace to play with their brothers and sisters. How could they offend anyone?" Lu Junze said.

He knew that the two children had good tempers and would not offend anyone unless they did something that the other party disliked.

"Your Majesty, perhaps I have offended someone." Gu Shijin suddenly said.

Everyone in the palace knew that the two princes were her lifeblood and they couldn't cause trouble for her, but it was easy to cause trouble for the two little ones.

Lu Junze was stunned for a moment, but he had to say that what Gu Shijin said made sense.

"The only person I have offended recently is probably Concubine Fang." Gu Shijin said. After all, he was severely humiliated by her and the emperor.

"I'll send someone to check it out right away."

After Su Deyuan finished interrogating the people in Chenhua Palace, he went to interrogate the people in Shangshufang, but he found out nothing.

However, good news soon came from Concubine Fang.
