Chapter 111: Drug Residue
The Queen opened the jar and said, "Madam Yan, since you understand pharmacology, please help me take a look at the medicinal residue in this pottery jar. Is there anything wrong with it?"
Lin Yiwan frowned. To be honest, she didn't know how long these medicinal residues had been there, and the smell was really not very pleasant.
But she knew that since the queen took out the pottery jar so carefully, the medicinal residue must be extremely important.
She carefully identified it before slowly speaking, "This is a medicine for treating colds and fevers. There's nothing wrong with it!"
The hope on the queen's face suddenly disappeared, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Do you also think there is no problem?"
Seeing her shaky figure, Lin Yiwan quickly supported her and said, "This is just a very common antipyretic herb. Judging from its quality, it's still extremely good. The effect should be twice as good with half the effort!"
The Queen couldn't help but smile bitterly: "How can the medicine from the Imperial Pharmacy be bad?"
She paused, then spoke bitterly, "This was the last medicine the Crown Prince drank before he died. He accidentally fell into the pond in the Imperial Garden that day and developed a high fever that night. Coincidentally, your grandfather was sent out by the Emperor to look for medicine, so I asked other imperial physicians to prescribe antipyretic medicine. Who would have thought that after he drank it, he never woke up again!"
Lin Yiwan was extremely shocked. Why didn't she have any memory of this incident?
Seeing her expression, the Queen quickly explained, "The Emperor has issued a gag order regarding this kind of thing, and very few people know about it. The imperial physician who prescribed the medicine insisted that he had not used the wrong medicine, but the Emperor still hated him, so he ordered his head chopped off!"
Lin Yiwan nodded. No wonder the queen stayed in the palace. Anyone who encountered such a big change would feel uncomfortable.
After all, seeing a loved one die is the most painful thing in the world!
What's more, he is the queen's only legitimate son.
After learning the origins of the medicinal residue, Lin Yiwan couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you let my grandfather take a look?"
The Queen nodded gloomily. "He came back looking for the medicine, so I asked him to take a look. He checked everything for a long time and said there was nothing wrong with it. But I won't give up. I think the Crown Prince's death must be related to this medicine!"
She pounded her chest and sobbed, "Every time I wake up in the middle of the night, I can hear the prince crying out, 'Mother, my body is so hot, I'm about to burn to death, please save me!'"
Lin Yiwan quickly asked, "What were his symptoms before he died?"
The Queen was lost in painful memories. "He vomited a lot of blood, even some minced meat. I heard from your grandfather that his esophagus and intestines were burned. It's all my fault. If I hadn't made him drink that bowl of medicine, would his internal organs not have been burned to death?"
Lin Yiwan shook her head: "Empress, don't blame yourself. If you become depressed, the Crown Prince will not rest in peace in his grave!"
The Queen clenched her fists tightly and said through gritted teeth, "I really want to live well. How can I be willing to accept this until I find out the cause of his death?"
Lin Yiwan helped her sit on the chair, and then checked the medicine residue again.
She closed her eyes and silently recalled the effects of each herb and its various effects on the human body.
Ze Lan has the effect of reducing fever and cooling blood, and Forsythia suspensa is also used just right. These fever-reducing herbs cannot cause gastrointestinal ulcers.
Unless it’s not the medicine that’s causing the problem, but rather the consumption of something else that’s incompatible with it?
As if sensing Lin Yiwan's suspicion, the Queen quickly said, "The Crown Prince has been listless ever since he fell into the water. I specifically asked the Imperial Kitchen to prepare his favorite venison porridge for him. He vomits out whatever he drinks!"
Lin Yiwan lowered her eyes and pondered, "Could it be that when the Queen wasn't watching over you, someone else fed you something you didn't know about?"
The Queen shook her head vigorously in denial, "Impossible! The people serving the Crown Prince were carefully selected by the Emperor and me. The Emperor also investigated tirelessly for several days afterwards and found nothing amiss!"
Lin Yiwan immediately understood. No wonder the queen was so persistent in keeping the medicine residue. It turned out that she had doubts about this medicine.
Presumably, only the medicinal residue in this pottery jar is the motivation that keeps her alive!
Poor parents in the world!
She lowered her gaze to the medicinal residue again and said quickly, "Empress, could you please ask Mo'er to take me to the Imperial Pharmacy? I need to get a new set of the same herbs!"
The Queen nodded hurriedly: "Okay, take this palace's sign, and no one will embarrass you!"
Lin Yiwan took her sign and quickly followed Moer away.
The two arrived at the imperial pharmacy, and the imperial physician brought Lin Yiwan in.
Although she had the queen's badge, she was still guarded by the imperial physician.
She kept muttering to herself, "Three grams of Forsythia, two thousand grams of Ze Lan!"
Mo'er was stunned and thought to herself that Madam Yan didn't bring any medicinal residue with her, so how could she remember it so clearly?
As expected of the granddaughter of Imperial Physician Lin, she is indeed gifted in medicine.
He is truly a lucky man blessed by God!
Lin Yiwan had no idea how much Mo'er envied her. She was only concentrating on picking herbs.
When she was looking for the last herb, Prunella Vulgaris, a light bulb suddenly flashed in her mind: this is similar to Gelsemium elegans!
Her whole body trembled violently, and suddenly a thought popped into her mind: Could it be that someone had replaced the herb with the herb, and then secretly replaced it when the queen went to look for the dregs?
If that's the case, then the medicinal residue is indeed fine!
However, what the prince drank was a highly toxic drug that could cause gastrointestinal ulcers!
She said quickly, "Mo'er, I understand. Let's hurry back to Weiyang Palace!"
Mo'er did not dare to delay and quickly took her to Weiyang Palace.
After the two left, a young eunuch sneaked out from the dark, glanced in the direction of Weiyang Palace, and then turned and ran towards the cold palace located in the southwest corner of the palace.
When Lin Yiwan saw the Queen, she said directly, "I've figured it out. Just because the dregs are fine doesn't mean the pot is fine. Does Your Majesty know the whereabouts of the pot?"
The Queen frowned and pondered, "I also ordered someone to seal the medicine pot. It should be in the secret room of the Crown Prince's East Palace. I will take you there now!"
When they arrived at the Prince's Eastern Palace, they found a desolate scene everywhere.
It should be spring, a time of bright sunshine, but it feels like winter here, with a biting cold wind.
Mo'er explained in a low voice: "Ever since the Crown Prince passed away, the Empress has ordered the Eastern Palace to be sealed. The Emperor has no plans to appoint a crown prince, so he just left it to the Empress!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a sneaky eunuch suddenly ran out of the hall.
He was holding something bulging in his arms.
When Mo'er saw this, she immediately shouted, "Who are you? How dare you sneak into the East Palace?"
