The queen is spoiling the king and madly criticizing him for spoiling her

If I hadn't known this in advance, and had simply checked the palace, I wouldn't have been able to find any evidence of Lao Deng's crime, and I would have missed the truth.

【Old Deng, you're unlucky now that you've run into me. 】

"Yunhe, take your men out of the palace and check if there are any suspicious people who have purchased the red beads." After that, Gu Jianchu summoned Yunhe to his side and whispered the name and location of a shop in Yunhe's ear. "Interrogate everyone who has purchased the red beads from this pharmacy to see if there are any people in the palace who are behind it."

Yunhe instantly understood Gu Jianchu's intention.

Yunhe didn't ask why Gu Jianchu asked him to check the pharmacy.

What the Queen says is never wrong, and the Queen's judgment is extremely accurate.

"Also, please ask Eunuch Cheng to bring over the imperial physician who prescribed the medicine for Concubine Wen yesterday, as well as the eunuch who delivered the medicine, to inquire thoroughly about how the red bead ended up in Concubine Wen's medicine." Gu Jianchu instructed Cheng Song while comforting the kitten in his arms.

Gu Jianchu glanced over and saw a fleeting flash of panic on Doctor Zhang's originally calm face, which was quickly covered up by him.

[Oh, so after this matter was completed, he gave the imperial physician some money and allowed him to return to his hometown to live.]

[He also instructed the imperial physician to stay in hiding for the time being and not to show up in public.]

[The bottom was wiped clean by Doctor Zhang. If it weren't for the dog system, it would be difficult to find evidence of him harming people.]

[The young imperial physician is planning to leave the city at night.]

[Then there's no need to rush. We'll be able to find the young imperial physician soon.]

[Old Deng is probably worried about what will happen if the young imperial physician doesn't make it out of the city in time.]

【It's normal to be worried about what you've done. 】

The emperor and empress had no breakfast, and it was unknown when these matters would be dealt with.

Zhuxi ordered the imperial kitchen to deliver breakfast to Cheng'en Hall.

While all parties were looking for evidence, the emperor and empress moved to the main hall to have breakfast.

Imperial Physician Zhang and Imperial Physician Lin were waiting outside the hall.

Yu Ru served beside Concubine Wen.

Wen Zhaoyi had received several injections from Imperial Physician Zhang and had taken some ginseng soup. She felt much better now. She let Yuru help her up and asked, "Has the Empress left?"

"No, the Emperor and the Empress came here immediately after the morning court session. They haven't had breakfast yet and are currently having breakfast in the main hall. The Empress has already ordered someone to investigate the Empress' poisoning."

"In this harem, only the Empress Dowager cares about me. Yuru, help me up. I want to go and thank the Empress Dowager." Concubine Wen struggled to sit up.

Yu Ru's face was full of hesitation. "Your Majesty is still very weak. It would not be too late to go to Kunning Palace to thank the Empress another day."

"I'm still under house arrest. If I miss today, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the Queen, so please help me up." Wen Zhaoyi insisted on letting Yuru help her wash and dress up.

Seeing that she could not persuade him, Yu Ru had no choice but to help Wen Zhaoyi get up, get her clothes back on and wash up, and then went to the main hall to meet the emperor and empress.

Seeing Wen Zhaoyi come in, Zhu Xia hurried forward to support her, "Aren't you still sick? Why are you here?"

"I want to thank the Queen for saving my life." Concubine Wen said as she was about to bow.

Gu Jianchu waved his hand, and Zhuxi and Zhuxia immediately stepped forward to support Wen Zhaoyi's arm. "I will remember this favor and repay it in the future. Now that you are here, sit down and have something to eat together."

Gu Jianchu knew Wen Zhaoyi's temper and that she didn't like to owe favors to others, so he could only follow her words and accept this favor.

Zhu Xia helped the person sit down, then served a bowl of red date porridge to Wen Nuan.

Gu Jianchu ate a bowl of boiled mutton and drank a bowl of red date porridge. When he was getting the second bowl of porridge, Cheng Song came in.

"How's the investigation going?" Xie Ci'an asked coldly.

Cheng Song said truthfully, "I took people to look for the young imperial physician who prescribed medicine for the Concubine Zhaoyi yesterday. The people at the Imperial Hospital said that the young imperial physician had gone home for the past two days due to family matters. The young eunuch who delivered the medicine to the Concubine Zhaoyi has been found. After questioning, it turned out that the young eunuch knew nothing and was simply responsible for delivering medicine to the Concubine Zhaoyi."

"What a coincidence! We were looking for someone today, but he wasn't in the palace because of something at home. I'm afraid he fled for fear of being punished." Gu Jianchu sneered and put down the chopsticks in his hand.

Xie Ci'an's expression was somewhat unfriendly. He hated people who tried to be clever in front of him the most. "Then search the entire city and make sure to find the person."

[Searching the entire city is such a waste of resources. The young doctor is worried about being investigated if his secret is exposed, so he doesn't dare go home. He's hiding in a dilapidated temple west of the city, waiting for dark so he can follow the manure cart out of the city. What a disgusting idea.]

Just as Gu Jianchu was trying to find a way to remind Xie Ci'an, Xie Ci'an spoke first, "Focus on searching those temples in the suburbs and other places where they can hide."

Hearing this, Gu Jianchu looked at the emperor in surprise.

How did the emperor hit the target so accurately?

Could it be that there is some hidden golden finger?

Gu Jianchu was just guessing.

Xie Ci'an's ability is obvious to all, so it's not surprising that he guessed the criminals' hiding place.

The people of the capital have been in a state of panic recently. Officers and soldiers are searching everywhere every few days, which makes them feel that the crime rate in the capital is increasing.

Doctor Lin, who was standing outside, glanced at Doctor Zhang beside him. He saw a thin layer of sweat on Doctor Zhang's forehead. "Doctor Zhang, what's wrong? Is it too hot?"

"None of your business." Doctor Zhang wiped the sweat from his palms on his clothes.

He didn't know whether the young imperial physician had left the capital, or whether he had hidden himself if he hadn't left. If he was caught by the emperor's men, all his plans would be ruined.

"Is Imperial Physician Zhang worried that the young eunuch will be caught? Given the Empress's ability, there is a high possibility that he will be caught." Imperial Physician Lin said with a smile and turned his head to the side.

Recently, there have been rumors in the palace that the Queen is evil.

Anyone encountered by the Empress would either end up divorced or have their evil deeds exposed. This rumor has now spread among the people and has even been adapted into something fantastic by storytellers in restaurants and teahouses.

Doctor Lin glanced through the window at the dining table in the room, with burning anticipation hidden in his eyes. He hoped to use the Queen Mother's help to expose Doctor Zhang's ugly face.

It was unknown how long it had passed before Yunhe returned from outside the palace with his men. Following closely behind Yunhe was a ragged little beggar who was being held down by two young guards.

The little beggar exuded a faint foul smell all over his body, and his nose and face were swollen, which showed that he had been beaten.

When he saw the little beggar's face clearly, Doctor Zhang collapsed to the ground, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his body trembled uncontrollably, but his eyes were fixed on the little beggar.

Seeing this, Yun He, who knew nothing, stepped forward and helped Doctor Zhang up from the ground. "Doctor Zhang, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Doctor Lin, why don't you take a look at Doctor Zhang? It looks quite serious." Yun He's face was full of concern.

Before Doctor Lin could step forward, Doctor Zhang rejected him directly, "I'm fine."

It was not certain at first, but looking at the appearance of Imperial Physician Zhang, the little beggar Yunhe brought into the palace was probably related to Imperial Physician Zhang.

Doctor Lin had a touching smile on his face, and even his eyes looking at the queen were a little warmer.
