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

"I'm afraid I used the wrong medicine." Zheng Miao said frankly.

Linglong asked in surprise: "What medicine did you use wrong?"

"Looking at the Empress's pulse, it seems she's taken sedatives after a cold. This is normal. To allow the patient to get enough sleep to recuperate, it's acceptable to add some tranquilizers to the herbal remedies. But the Empress's pulse during sleep is more rapid than if she'd taken sedatives..."

Zheng Miao asked Linglong to bring the prescription that Queen Yan had been using recently so that he could make further judgment after looking at it.

Linglong hurriedly brought the prescription herself.

The prescriptions are all kept in the chest of drawers in the inner room, making them easy to retrieve.

Zheng Miao looked at the three pictures carefully one by one.

"Are there any leftover medicine residues?"

Linglong asked someone to get the medicine residue.

Let a trusted confidant take it quietly.

After getting it, Zheng Miao flipped through it and asked:

"Did the medicine come from the Imperial Hospital and be sent over, or did you prepare it in your own palace? How many people were involved?"

"It's made by people from Fengming Palace. We take the herbs from the Imperial Pharmacy and have someone identify them. Only after they're confirmed they're correct will they make the medicine. There are at least two people identifying the herbs at the same time, at least two people making the medicine at the same time, and two people serving the medicine as well. And it's not always the same person."

Linglong was shocked as she spoke.

It is a rule for two people to work at the same time so that they can supervise each other while doing things, and it is convenient to check if there is a problem.

When the Empress was ill, everything was handled by trusted palace attendants. And they weren't a fixed number; they took turns. If this wasn't appropriate, then... were there problems with these people?!

Zheng Miao pondered for a moment.

Yan said: "The prescription written by the imperial physician seems to be fine, and the medicine residue is also fine. If the process of boiling the medicine and serving the medicine is also fine, then I don't know where the problem lies."

Linglong said anxiously, "Master Zheng, please speak directly and stop talking nonsense. Since the Imperial Noble Consort has invited you here, even if she trusts you, you should also trust me."

Zheng Miao looks at Fei Wan.

Fei Wan nodded.

Zheng Miaofang said, "This prescription is a normal one for treating colds, but two of the herbs are a little mild. If you look closely, there's nothing wrong with that. If the Empress's constitution is weak and cold, using them is very appropriate. However, they taste bitter and can easily mask other flavors. If you add them to the medicine, it will be difficult to identify with them."

Linglong's eyes turned cold. Was there really someone who attacked the Queen?

"The Empress's constitution isn't weak or cold, but rather somewhat hot. Lord Zheng, can you tell what's been added to the Empress that's causing her to be so weak and feeble?"

"I don't know about that. After all, I haven't personally tasted the medicine at that time. However, since the dregs are fine, then the added substance was probably on the vessel, or added to the bowl during the medicine delivery process, so it didn't get on the dregs."

After Zheng Miao said this, Linglong was at a loss for what to do.

The Queen has stopped taking cold medicine for two days.

So, there is no way to verify it.

I don’t know how the ingredients were added, and I can’t tell whether what Doctor Zheng said is right.

Fei Wan said, "Xiang Yi, send Doctor Zheng out and say a few words in the courtyard to thank Doctor Zheng."

"Yes."

Xiangyi accompanied Zheng Miao out of the main hall of Fengming Palace.

Arriving in the courtyard, Zheng Miao bowed and said goodbye: "Please go back."

Xiang Yi handed him a red envelope and said, "Thank you, Lord Zheng. You have been busy sorting out medical records recently. If the Empress had not been unwell, our Imperial Concubine would not have disturbed you. Thank you for your hard work."

Zheng Miao accepted the envelope and said respectfully, "This is all within my humble duty. The Empress is in good health, and everyone is relieved. This means my trip wasn't in vain. If the Empress still seems tired after a few days, why not ask Imperial Physician Zhao to prescribe a prescription as before? After all, it's Doctor Zhao who is most familiar with the Empress's physique."

"I understand. I will tell the two ladies. Take care, my lord."

Xiangyi watched Zheng Miao leave and returned to the house.

Linglong stood behind the curtain at the main entrance and heard the conversation between Xiangyi and Zheng Miao. She took Xiangyi's hand and returned to the inner hall together.

"Your Highness, what does the Imperial Concubine mean? Don't alert the enemy?"

Fei Wan nodded: "Ask Doctor Zhao to come and prescribe another prescription."

Linglong thought about it and decided that this was the best way.

Sit back and wait for the rabbit.

Please enter the urn.

By then, we may be able to find out whether there is a problem and who has the problem.

Fei Wan still had things to do, and Queen Yan was still not waking up - Zheng Miao had just reminded her that because they didn't know what additives were used on Queen Yan, it would be best to wait for her to wake up naturally and not force her to wake up rashly to avoid damaging her brain.

So Fei Wan stood up and said goodbye first.

"If you need anything, feel free to send someone to see me."

"Yes, Your Majesty, please accept my humble respect."

Linglong knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Feiwan.

Fei Wan helped her up.

"The Queen and I are like sisters. This is what I should do. You don't have to worry too much about it. If I encounter such a thing, I believe my sister will help me wholeheartedly."

Linglong was moved.

She had despised, doubted, and been wary of Fei Wan before...

Until now, I can only feel grateful.

Fei Wan saved them, the master and the servant, many times.

She respectfully escorted Fei Wan to the palace gate in person. After seeing Fei Wan get into the sedan chair, she watched for a while before turning around and returning.

After waiting for more than an hour, Yan Hou finally woke up from his drowsiness.

"Linglong...how long have I been sleeping?"

"My lady, you have slept for nearly three hours."

"what?!"

After Yan Hou, she felt sore all over, dizzy and had a swollen head, as if she had not slept at all.

Her face was pale. She took a break for a while and drank two sips of water, but her heart was still pounding wildly, making her feel as if she couldn't breathe. She just wanted to lie back on the pillow.

"Let's go find Zhao Peng and take a look."

She felt something was wrong with her body.

No matter how bitter the medicine is, you have to endure it.

Linglong did not send anyone immediately.

After serving Queen Yan for a short rest, he got out of bed and walked around for a while. Seeing that his mistress's face had regained some color and looked a little more energetic, he slowly told her what Imperial Physician Zheng Miao had just said.

"How could it be so!" Queen Yan was furious. "Oh, I thought it was just a lingering cold. I've been tired lately, so I'm always tired... and yet someone has harmed me without even noticing?"

"I want to see who in the palace is so bold and presumptuous!"

"Go and make the arrangements, and do as the Imperial Concubine says!"

Queen Yan held her forehead and leaned against the head of the bed for a long time before she recovered.

Thinking of Fei Wan's recent busyness and her need to come to Fengming Palace to make arrangements for her, she felt warm in her heart. She ordered someone to pick out some brand new and exquisite gemstone jewelry from the warehouse and send it to Fei Wan.

The next day, Doctor Zhao returned to the Imperial Hospital on leave and was summoned to Fengming Palace early in the morning to diagnose Empress Yan's pulse and prescribe medicine.

I took the herbs and boiled them, but didn't drink it after dinner.

Under the pretext of delivering beauty soup to several high-ranking concubines, he took out half a bowl of the medicine, put it in a food box and sent it to Fei Wan.
