The Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of An Lingrong: Counterattack to Become the Queen Mother
Chapter 143: Undercurrent of Crisis
Zhen Huan nodded slightly, her eyes revealing determination: "Lingrong, you are right. As long as we sisters work together, we will be able to overcome these difficulties."
At this moment, Baojuan came running over, looking panicked: "My lady, this is bad! I heard that the emperor is suddenly unwell, and it seems like he has been poisoned!"
"What!" Zhen Huan and An Lingrong exclaimed at the same time.
"What should we do, Huan'er, we have to go and take a look!" An Lingrong said anxiously.
"Let's go!" Zhen Huan took An Lingrong's hand and ran towards the emperor's bedroom.
Arriving at the bedroom, I saw the imperial doctors coming in and out, all with serious expressions. Su Peisheng paced anxiously nearby.
Zhen Huan stepped forward and asked, "Eunuch Su, how is the emperor?"
Su Peisheng sighed and said, "In reply to Lady Wan, the Emperor's illness came on suddenly. The imperial doctors are doing their best to treat him, but they haven't yet found out what poison caused it."
An Lingrong frowned: "How could this happen? How could the Emperor be poisoned when he was perfectly fine?"
Zhen Huan's face was also filled with worry: "The people in this harem are treacherous. Someone must have done this intentionally."
As the two were talking, Concubine Chun came over and said, "Sister Huan, Sister Lingrong, how is the emperor?"
Zhen Huan shook her head: "It's not clear yet, the doctors are still investigating."
Chun Changzai said angrily: "Who is so bold as to poison the emperor? If I find out, I will never let her go!"
An Lingrong patted Chun Changzai's shoulder and said, "Chun'er, don't be impulsive. The most urgent thing is to find out the truth of the matter."
After a while, the imperial physician came out and everyone immediately gathered around him. Zhen Huan hurriedly asked, "Doctor Li, how is the emperor's condition?"
Imperial Physician Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "In reply to your Excellency, the poison the Emperor has contracted is quite complex. We still need to conduct a thorough study. We have already used some antidotes, which have temporarily stabilized the Emperor's condition, but he is still not out of danger."
An Lingrong asked anxiously, "Is there any other way?"
Imperial Physician Li sighed, "We can only continue to search for an antidote while observing the Emperor's condition. I hope to find an effective antidote as soon as possible."
Zhen Huan and An Lingrong looked at each other, their eyes full of worry.
Zhen Huan said, "Lingrong, we can't just sit there and wait for death. We have to find a way to find the mastermind behind this."
An Lingrong nodded. "Well, Huan'er, I think there must be something fishy going on. We can start by looking at the Emperor's diet and daily routine today to see if we can find any clues."
Chun Changzai also agreed: "Yes, let's go check it out."
So, the three of them divided the work and began to secretly investigate the emperor's poisoning. In this harem full of dangers, another storm quietly set off...
As the investigation deepened, they discovered some clues. An Lingrong found a broken medicine bottle in the corner of the imperial garden, and Zhen Huan learned from a young eunuch that a palace maid had been sneaking around the imperial kitchen today.
An Lingrong took the medicine bottle and met Zhen Huan and Chun Changzai.
"Huan'er, look, I found this. Could it be related to the emperor's poisoning?" An Lingrong said.
Zhen Huan took the medicine bottle and examined it carefully: "This medicine bottle doesn't look like something commonly used in the palace. We need to find someone who understands pharmacology to take a look."
Chun Changzai said, "Then let's go find Wei Lin. He's a good doctor and might be able to figure out something."
The three of them found Wei Lin again. After looking at the medicine bottle, Wei Lin frowned and said, "The medicine in this bottle contains a rare poisonous herb. If it is mixed with what the emperor ate today, it is very likely to cause poisoning."
Zhen Huan's eyes turned cold: "It seems that someone did this on purpose. We must find this person!"
An Lingrong also clenched her fists: "We must not let this person go unpunished. He dared to harm the Emperor and murder His Majesty. He deserves death!"
Chun Changzai said angrily, "That's right, she must be severely punished!"
However, they knew that it would not be easy to find the mastermind behind the scenes in this harem. A fierce battle had just begun...
