"My Lady, this is Angelica incense, made by Master Zhang Zhenmei, the head perfumer of the Imperial Fragrance Pavilion. After the Queen gave birth to Princess Sihe, she felt sore all over and couldn't sleep, so she asked the Imperial Fragrance Pavilion for this incense.

In recent years, the Empress has relied on this fragrance to fall asleep. Is there anything wrong with the princess asking this?

Every time I bring back this Baizhi incense, I always have it carefully examined by the imperial physician before giving it to the Empress. Is there something wrong with it?"

Yun Suyue had already opened the half-burned angelica incense and reached out, "Bring me a silver spoon.

Also, dismiss all palace maids except you."

"I will do it immediately." People who have been in the palace for a long time are all shrewd. Nanny Gan turned around and looked at the queen with heartache. She already knew that the queen had been poisoned all these years, so she immediately dismissed all the palace servants.

Although the queen was kind, she was not stupid either as she was still alive after such a long illness. Her already pale face became even uglier. She smiled bitterly and said, "Speak, Su Yue, I can handle it."

Yun Suyue poured the spoonful of angelica incense onto the table and spread it out for the queen to see. "This is indeed angelica incense. Most of the spices are ground angelica powder, but it also contains powder made from the chronically toxic Huimengzhi.

This is a chronic poison that can cause people to fall into deep sleep. If taken in large doses, it can make people fall into a deep sleep and never wake up.

The person who did it probably didn't dare to kill you directly, but instead put a very small amount in there each time, slowly eating away at your body, making you suffer this pain day and night until you die.

He is a man of wicked wits. If there were no suspects, the only option would be to capture the perfume maker and the imperial physician and interrogate them rigorously, as they are in cahoots."

"They actually joined hands to take my life. Who hates me so much?" The queen could no longer hold back her tears. Thinking of the suffering she had endured over the years, she gritted her teeth and endured from dawn to dusk, and from dusk until the stars fell.

She saw with her own eyes when the sky turned dark and when it turned white throughout the year, how the flowers bloomed and how they withered when they fell.

She originally thought that her health was not good enough and she could not live with the Holy Emperor until old age and give birth to a third child for him, but she never expected that it was all a conspiracy of the enemy.

How cruel it is to let her suffer so many years in vain and not even be able to take care of her two children?

Why did that person hate her so much?

"Woo..." The queen could no longer care about so many things. She was in her thirties and held Yun Suyue's arm to suppress the pain. She buried her pale face in Yun Suyue's sleeves and cried wildly and freely.

"What's wrong with the Queen?" Si Mingyuan was worried. He also wanted to know what had happened to the Queen's health over the years? Even the imperial doctors were helpless.

Si Yanzhuo also came and asked Yun Suyue with his eyes.

"Shh." Yun Suyue signaled Si Yanzhuo not to disturb the queen, she needed to release.

Si Yanzhuo also knew etiquette, so he stepped out and waited in the hall.

Yun Suyue wanted to give up her seat to Si Mingyuan, but the Queen still held her arm tightly. The emotional Queen didn't know that the Holy Emperor had arrived, and was still immersed in pain and tears.

Si Mingyuan did not disturb the queen. She had been gentle and cheerful every day for twenty-two years since she married him at the age of sixteen. This was the first time he saw her so sad.

He waited until the queen had almost finished crying before walking over, freed her from Yun Suyue's sleeve, and held her in his arms.

"Queen, what happened?"

The queen's face was covered in tears, and she looked a little embarrassed. She quickly stood up and prepared to salute Si Mingyuan, but Si Mingyuan forcibly held her in his arms, "It's already this late, and you're still remembering those empty formalities."

"Holy Emperor..."

The queen didn't care anymore and threw herself into Si Mingyuan's arms and burst into tears.

Yun Suyue pointed to the incense on the table and explained on behalf of the Queen, "The Queen has been poisoned for years with a chronic, highly toxic substance called Huimeng Powder, which is mixed with Angelica dahurica incense. The amount is very small, and the scent is so light that it's not easily noticeable."

"Chronic poison? Come, bring the Imperial Fragrance Pavilion's director and the imperial physician responsible for the Empress to me. If you don't expose the evildoers behind this, I will execute their entire clan!"

Si Mingyuan was furious. The only woman in the harem who truly loved him was harmed like this. He couldn't tolerate it!

"Ying'er? Ying'er!" The queen in his arms had fainted.

"I'll do it. The Queen is overly sad and emotional."

Yun Suyue knew why without taking her pulse. She pricked the queen with a silver needle and awoke her. She handed her a bottle of diluted spiritual spring water and said, "Drink this and you'll feel much better."

Si Mingyuan was anxious, "Xiao Suyue, do you have a way to detoxify?"

This was simply an insult to Yun Suyue's medical skills. "How could this possibly stump me? However, the Queen has been poisoned for a long time, and detoxification is not easy. It will take about a month to take medicine internally and take a medicinal bath.

The prerequisite is that someone must be honest with her and force out most of the poison according to my method. The queen will be in great pain during the process, and the person who helps him force out the poison must also control his internal strength.

The Queen's body is extremely fragile right now, and excessive internal energy will kill her directly."

The queen, who was drinking the spiritual spring water, immediately expressed her opinion, "I can bear it, just force the poison."

When Si Mingyuan heard that Yun Suyue could detoxify, he excitedly took on the job, "I'll do it, little Suyue, just tell me how to do it.

Also, what does it mean to be frank with each other? Aren’t we all being frank with the Queen right now?

Yun Suyue looked at the two of them ambiguously and said, "Just take off all your clothes, both of you."

Si Mingyuan and the Queen: “…”

Si Yanzhuo appeared beside Yun Suyue like a ghost, "Ayue, I will be the one to say this from now on."

Yun Suyue rolled her eyes at him and said, "Don't make trouble. Go wait for me outside."

Turning around, Si Mingyuan said to the Queen, "Huimeng Powder has a characteristic. When the poison is forced out, it will cause heat as it travels through the tendons and blood vessels. People wearing clothes will not be able to bear it."

Si Mingyuan understood, "Then why should I be frank with you?"

Si Yanzhuo gnashed his teeth and said, "Fourth Brother, try asking one more question."

"Okay, I won't ask anymore. Xiao Suyue, you don't have to answer."

When Si Mingyuan received Si Yanzhuo's murderous look, he immediately became timid.

At this moment, Diwu Xiao, who had been ordered to take the incense master and the imperial physician, returned, but what he brought were two corpses. "Reporting to the Holy Emperor, when I left, the two were already dead. Both died of poisoning.

The remaining people are being interrogated and the results will be known soon."

"What a fast speed." Si Mingyuan was shocked.

It took only an incense stick of time from the time Xiao Suyue and he came here for the other party to get the news and decisively kill them.

"Holy Emperor, Seventh Prince, Princess, please have some tea." At this time, a palace maid came over to serve tea without any confusion.

"Okay." Yun Suyue was thinking about something and didn't care. She picked up the teacup and took a sip. After swallowing it, she felt something was wrong. "I can't drink it. It's poisonous. Ugh... It's very poisonous."

She knocked over the teacups held by Si Mingyuan and Si Yanzhuo, then quickly gave herself an acupuncture injection and immediately sat cross-legged on the ground to force out the poison.

"Ayue?" Si Yanzhuo was so scared that he sat behind Yun Suyue to help her force the poison out.

"boom!"

Si Mingyuan severely injured the palace maid with a palm strike. "How dare you poison the emperor, the Seventh Prince, and Princess Su Yue in front of me. Tell me, who ordered you to do this?"

At this moment, Si Mingyuan was the devil from hell.
