Dethroned the Crown Princess? Then she became your mother

Poisoning?

Murong Shuo's brows knitted together, his voice tinged with disbelief. "Is it really poisoning? Why is the symptom itching? What kind of strange poison could have such bizarre symptoms?"

Although Nanny Li, Chunmei and others were full of doubts, they also felt that the world was so big that there were all kinds of strange things, and perhaps such a strange poison really existed.

Could it be that this poison was deliberately administered by someone with the intention of destroying Concubine Liang's appearance?

Zhang Tianai pondered inwardly, almost blurting out, "Could this be similar to the poison that Concubine Shu was poisoned with before?" But on second thought, it seemed different.

However, the facts are before us, and poisoning is undoubtedly the case.

"This can be regarded as Empress Liang's good fortune." The words of the imperial physician sounded again, with a hint of relief.

He continued, "If it weren't for the fact that your Majesty has a special physique and is extremely sensitive to certain substances, I'm afraid this poison would be lurking even deeper and harder to detect."

"Allergic to something? But the master has never had an allergic reaction. You just said it was poisoning." Chunmei couldn't help but ask questions.

Murong Shuo remained silent, his expression expressing the same doubt. Nanny Li was also bewildered.

"Sometimes, just because you haven't experienced something doesn't mean it won't happen." The imperial physician patiently explained, "What happened to Concubine Liang wasn't just a simple allergy; it was a deliberate poisoning. Your constitution is incredibly sensitive to this poison, and upon contact, you'd immediately show symptoms. Otherwise, by the time the poison had taken hold, it would probably be too late."

He paused and continued, "If not, Her Majesty would have been deeply poisoned, and by then, even I would have been unable to detect it. I have heard of similar cases before, and I also detected a slight abnormality when taking her pulse, but the specific nature of the poison requires further investigation."

If the allergic symptoms hadn't manifested promptly, Concubine Liang might have been poisoned, a poison so subtle it would have been difficult to detect. The consequences would have been disastrous, potentially even endangering the young prince in her womb. Therefore, the imperial physician said Concubine Liang was lucky.

This luck was truly amazing. Not only did she save her own life, but she also protected the flesh and blood in her belly.

He, Murong Shuo, finally understood. Nanny Li, Chunmei, and the others also understood one after another.

So, that's what happened.

Thanks to the allergic symptoms, they discovered the clues in time.

However, who was the person who poisoned the food? How could he be so audacious as to cause such a disaster?

They were burning with anger, especially Murong Shuo, whose anger was almost bursting out.

Zhang Tianai looked dazed. Her son almost died here!

"Isn't this poison meant to make me scratch my face?" she asked in a trembling voice.

"No, although other poisons are possible, this is definitely not the case." The imperial physician replied firmly.

"What should the master do now?" asked Nanny Li with concern.

Everyone looked at the imperial physician with anticipation, and Zhang Tianai was no exception.

"As long as Your Majesty does not come into contact with the poison again, there will be no problem. Judging from Your Majesty's symptoms, the exposure time should not be long. As long as you pay more attention in the future and avoid contact again, these symptoms will naturally subside and the itching will gradually disappear. If you are worried, I can prescribe some medicine." The imperial physician said confidently.

"Then prescribe some medicine to stop her from itching." Murong Shuo said directly.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The imperial physician responded and then turned to prepare the prescription.

"Then how can we be sure that we haven't come into contact with the poison powder again? And how can we find where the poison powder is?" Nanny Li asked a series of questions one after another.

Murong Shuo nodded slightly: "Speak."

Chunmei and others also nodded in agreement.

"We could first have Concubine Liang bathe and change her clothes, both inside and out. Then we could move her to a new place and reexamine her," the imperial physician suggested. "It's also possible that the poison powder was brought in by someone, so we need to consider all possibilities."

"Then why are you still standing there?" Murong Shuo looked at Nanny Li, Chunmei and others, with a hint of urgency in his tone.

"Yes, we'll do it right away." Nanny Li, Chunmei and others responded quickly and started to act.

Murong Shuo also ordered his servants to come and help move Concubine Liang to another place. At the same time, he asked everyone around her to wash up and change into clean clothes.

As for where to move to, they would first take shelter in the side hall. However, before going to the side hall, they had to deal with it first to ensure that everything was safe.

He then ordered his servants to go and make preparations, ensuring a thorough search of the side halls to uncover any unusual objects. Eunuch An and the others followed his orders and left, silently praying they wouldn't find anything they shouldn't, as the Emperor would not let them off lightly.

Murong Shuo stood there, his eyes fixed on the woman before him. Seeing her pained expression, he felt a surge of pity in his heart, and couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke her cheek. She seemed to sense his tenderness, and her clenched teeth loosened slightly.

Murong Shuo took the opportunity to pull his hand away, only to find that it had been bitten by her teeth. This woman, even in pain, still maintained a stubborn and persistent attitude.

Zhang Tianai saw the teeth marks on Murong Shuo's hand and felt guilty: "Your Majesty, I...I didn't mean it."

Murong Shuo shook his head gently and interrupted her: "It's okay, go take a shower and change your clothes first. Put on clean clothes, take off everything on your body, and then use the medicine. I will come to see you later."

After saying this, he also ordered the servants to prepare his toiletries. He wanted to change into clean clothes before coming to see her.

"Okay." Zhang Tianai responded and was immediately carried away by Nanny Li, Chunmei and others.

Murong Shuo gave him a few more instructions to be careful, then called in the imperial physician for a private consultation. Afterwards, he also had someone prepare water for him to wash.

Only after everything was ready did he go to the side hall.

He would first go check on the woman and make sure she was alright, then shower and change clothes to wash away his fatigue and worries.

Arriving at the side hall, he found it had been tidied up and looked brand new. Eunuch An, upon seeing him approach, hurried forward to report, "Your Majesty, we've searched thoroughly and found nothing unusual."

"Really?" Murong Shuo was still a little worried.

"Really not, Your Majesty." A guard answered affirmatively.

Eunuch An also nodded repeatedly to confirm.

"In that case..." Murong Shuo nodded slightly, "That's good."

After saying this, he looked at the woman who had come over. She was also looking at him, along with Nanny Li and the others. He walked over and heard the woman cry out that she was itchy again. Nanny Li, Chunmei and the others immediately surrounded her.

He followed closely behind and asked, "Is it still itchy? Hasn't the imperial physician's medicine arrived yet?"

"Not yet, Your Majesty," Nanny Li replied quickly. Chunmei nodded in agreement.

Zhang Tianai kept crying out in pain and itching.

Murong Shuo felt distressed when he saw her appearance, and ordered someone to urge the imperial physician to send the medicine quickly.

The water was delivered shortly after they left. This time, we didn't put it in the toilet because it was inconvenient, so we just put it here.

Nanny Li, Chunmei, and the others quickly joined the water bearers to carry the master down again, and then had someone separate the room with a screen and prepare to bathe and change clothes for her. Once everything was arranged, the maids gently guided the master to change clothes and enter the bath.

Zhang Tianai stood still, her eyes fixed on the man, trying hard to suppress her discomfort.

"Go and take good care of her." A hint of concern flashed in Murong Shuo's eyes. He ordered the maids to serve carefully and to ask for help if necessary. He also signaled them to change clothes as soon as possible and let Zhang Tianai take a bath first.

"Yes, sir." Nanny Li, Chunmei and others responded in unison.

Zhang Tianai watched quietly.

Murong Shuo did not leave and continued to wait there.

The maids moved gently, and after Zhang Tianai had completely undressed, they slowly helped her into the bathtub. The water rippled, and as soon as she sat down, she felt an inexplicable itch, but it was quickly dispelled by the warm water, transforming into an indescribable comfort that gradually relaxed her tense nerves.

Perhaps, it is thanks to this clear spring.

The itchiness quietly faded away, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
