The queen is sober in the world, and she is winning every step of the palace fight.

"Xia Changsheng."

"The minister is here."

Xia Changsheng, the judge of the Imperial Hospital, and his colleagues were waiting outside and did not dare to leave. When they heard the emperor's call, they hurried in.

He knelt down and explained, "Fever caused by a rat bite is usually caused by a dirty wound. Unless one comes into contact with the patient's wound, blood, saliva, or sputum, one will not normally contract the disease. However, if the rat carries toxins, the poison will enter the body and travel through the meridians to the patient's entire body. Bystanders may also contract the disease by talking to the patient.

Therefore, before the ladies and your majesty came here, we had already put a thick veil on Princess Zhao and burned anti-poison drugs in the house just in case.

But for the sake of caution, Your Majesty, please leave as soon as possible."

He had already said this secretly to the queen.

But the queen was concerned about the patient and refused to leave.

When His Majesty arrived later, the ladies were arguing fiercely and he had no room to speak.

He waited for a long time with a sweat on his face, and finally got the chance to speak out.

He couldn't help but cast a grateful glance at Fei Wan.

He didn't want to take the responsibility for neglecting his duty and causing the emperor to become ill!

"Your Majesty, please leave immediately... This concubine deserves death for not thinking of this sooner and putting Your Majesty in danger... Your Majesty, please punish me!"

Fei Wan struggled to stand up and kowtowed to the emperor on the bed, begging him.

No matter how much Xiao Yu loves Fei Wan, he dare not put himself in danger when it comes to his own affairs.

He has a vast country to rely on and cannot afford to lose anything.

"Zhao Qing, I will never punish you. Take good care of yourself, and I will send someone to serve you."

He gave a few instructions and quickly left with his men.

The imperial doctors stayed to treat Fei Wan for a while, then left. In accordance with the palace's practice of dealing with epidemics, they sealed off Fei Wan's Guanlan Courtyard.

Doctor Wen even burned the silver needles he used to give Fei Wan acupuncture.

These are all cautious practices of doctors and there is nothing wrong with them.

Fei Wan didn't even feel disheartened when the emperor immediately avoided her when he heard that he was going to get sick.

Even if they are true relatives or loved ones, when faced with such a situation, they must first save themselves so that they have enough energy to take care of the patient.

Besides, what she sought from the emperor was never true love.

What she wants is honor and favor.

I will take advantage of every available opportunity to pave the way for myself.

I believe that by driving the emperor away, she will definitely make the emperor feel that she is more sensible.

The emperor would not vent his anger at her for almost getting sick.

Instead, they will be even more disgusted with the person behind the rats that bite people.

If he can't find out, he will probably hate Yu Tingjin even more!

Fei Wan relaxed, ate something, drank enough water, and then lay comfortably in the quilt and fell asleep peacefully.

It was a sweet sleep.

Because the emperor has arranged people to seal off and look after this place, no one will come to harm her again in the short term.

She is relaxing here.

However, the harem was in turmoil because of her illness.

To eliminate the hidden danger, the Imperial Hospital recommended a palace-wide rat extermination. Hearing that Feiwan's fever could spread to others, the concubines, fearing for their own safety, enthusiastically agreed.

So the entire harem was put into action, and palace servants could be seen everywhere, day and night, searching for mice.

Anything found will be burned.

A concubine wanted to keep a cat to catch mice, but the imperial physician said that if the cat ate a sick mouse, it might pass the disease on to its owner.

Now, not only was the palace unable to keep new cats, but even the cats that had been kept in the palace before suffered. They were no longer allowed to run around and were all locked in cages to prevent them from accidentally coming into contact with mice and getting sick.

There are two white cats in the palace of Concubine Xian. They have blue eyes and snow-white fur, and are very much loved by Concubine Xian.

Seeing her beloved pet crying in the cage and refusing to eat dried fish, Concubine Xian was filled with hatred.

"This is a piece of shit from a small family! She can't even stand her own maid getting promoted, yet she's determined to kill her. She even dared to throw a dead rat here, trying to pin the blame on me. Such a stupid plan to kill two birds with one stone, how could she come up with this? Does she think everyone else is a fool?"

Su Xianshi, who was in the same palace, also cursed for a while.

At the banquet that day, she was slapped by Concubine Wu for mocking Yu Tingjin. Although Concubine Wu had not had a good life recently, she could not get rid of the hatred in her heart and only hoped that Yu Tingjin would be completely unlucky.

However, after scolding her, she expressed her doubts.

"Your Majesty, is Concubine Chun really that stupid? Why didn't she destroy the rats after they bit someone? Instead, she kept them in the closet for people to find. And if they were sick, how could she dare to keep them in the house? Isn't she afraid of getting sick herself?"

That's exactly it.

The virtuous concubine also couldn't understand this.

But considering that Yu Tingjin has always relied on her naivety and stupidity to get to the top, and has never made any clever plans before, perhaps she is really stupid, so it is not surprising that she came up with such a stupid plan.

If someone deliberately set up a trap...

Chunxi Palace was set up by the Queen with the help of Yu Tingjin, and it was run like an iron bucket. The spies planted by Concubine Xian could only get some information through channels, and it would be difficult for them to enter the inner room to frame others. So she couldn't think of anyone who could send a porcelain jar containing a mouse into Yu Tingjin's room without being discovered.

What kind of god could do something that she couldn't do?

The emperor is thoroughly investigating the source of this matter.

The virtuous concubine also secretly sent people to investigate.

I've searched over and over again, but I still have no clue.

No one knows who the real murderer is.

"Anyway, no matter what, we should be cautious and not let anyone get their hands on Changle Palace."

"Your Majesty is wise."

"By the way, I'll have someone send some gifts to Lady Zhao later, and you can send some too. His Majesty is very concerned about her, so we can do what His Majesty wants, and it won't be wrong."

"Yes, I obey your command."

Fengyi Palace.

Bai Lu reported, "Your Majesty, His Majesty has given Consort Zhao many gifts today, including food, clothing, and daily necessities. Consort Chun has already interrogated and replaced half of the palace guards, and another group will be tried tomorrow. Consort Chun has sent a message quietly, asking for your help. Please..."

The Queen sat dignified and said, "Ignore her. She has an impetuous temper. I have praised her too much over the past year. It's time for her to suffer a little and learn her lesson. Otherwise, she will make even bigger mistakes in the future and bring trouble upon me."

"Yes."

Bai Lu fell silent and whispered, "Your Majesty, this time, a thorough investigation is underway. I wonder what you'll find..."

"What can be found out?" The Queen stroked the gold-thread embroidery with flowing cloud patterns on her cuffs and said slowly, "Things have happened in this palace for years and months, and we investigate them from time to time, but how many times have we found the true truth?

It's just that whatever truth Your Majesty desires, that's what will be presented."

Bai Lu said, "The nest of rats in Concubine Chun's closet is really strange. I can't figure out who put it there. It's really surprising that there are spies like this in Chunxi Palace right under our noses. And if we can't find any clues, I'm afraid that Concubine Chun will..."

"She won't fall, but she will suffer a great loss and be disliked by His Majesty for a while. It's her own fault for being useless. Let's see if she can learn from her mistakes.

Regardless of who the spies are, the Chunxi Palace staff will definitely be replaced this time. If the spies are not among those being replaced, we will investigate them slowly later."

The queen was very calm and did not feel frustrated at all because the newcomer she had worked hard to train was defeated.

Instead, he smiled slightly.

"Zhao Cairen is a good talent."

"Give her this purple jade Ruyi as a pillow, and wish her a speedy recovery."

Guanlan Courtyard.

Fei Wan had a fever on and off for two or three days, and today the fever finally subsided.

I feel very weak.

But when I saw the valuable things being sent to me one after another, I felt happy.

She had said earlier that she would eat better and better.

Look, the gifts sent by the concubines are made of higher and higher quality materials.

The emperor sealed her residence, but he still sent her gifts every day, showing that his favor had not diminished. As a result, the women in the harem also paid more attention to her.

Now she can both rest and enjoy the peace and quiet, and at the same time enjoy the benefits of rising wealth. Isn't it wonderful!

It was truly worth it for her to drag her bruised body, sneaking through a rat hole in the middle of the night, and secretly deliver a big gift to Yu Tingjin's room.

The hard work paid off.

Yes, that's right, she was the one who planted that nest of mice!

She had a light sleep and could sense any movement even when she was asleep. She noticed the evil rat as soon as it entered the house that night.

After collecting the evil things, they threw them into the fire basket pillars that illuminated the corridors of the palace all night long and burned them.

No matter what toxins it carries, they will all dissipate.

As for who harmed her.

Does it matter?

There are many women in this palace, and their hearts are unpredictable. She is a new favorite with no foundation and anyone can take action against her.

With her current power, she would never be able to find out about this kind of thing.

Then there is no need to check.

Use your strength to fight.

Just put the blame on Yu Tingjin.

If he really knocked it right by accident, that would be great. If he knocked it wrong, Yu Tingjin would have deserved it!
