Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Through Physician Jin's explanation, Chu Junting and Chu Yungui understood the reason.

Physician Jin was forced to agree only after his entire family's lives were threatened.

"Your Highness, I was forced into this situation. I didn't want to do this at all, but if I don't do as they say, I'm afraid my whole family will lose their lives."

Doctor Jin was crying his eyes out, feeling utterly unlucky.

If the other party hadn't approached him, he wouldn't have been so terrified. He had previously thought that the King of Chu had also been infected and might not have discovered him.

But now, in the blink of an eye... he's been caught!

"What did they ask you to do in the military camp?"

"I didn't do anything special. I just wanted to slow down the progress of the other imperial physicians, and ideally, make sure none of them could cure the illness. That would be considered my accomplishment!"

Physician Jin looked anxious. "Your Highness, everything I said is true. Apart from hindering the progress, I did nothing else, and I didn't administer the poison!"

Chu Junting scoffed lightly, "Then how do you know there's poison in the water?"

"This is a precaution I took specifically to prevent myself from getting infected, in case I couldn't complete this task."

The man then told me to be careful when I ate, and not to use the water from the military camp. He also gave me this packet of medicine.

"I knew it was the antidote as soon as I opened the medicine, and seeing the other soldiers' poisoning, I immediately understood the cause..."

When Physician Jin said this, he revealed a guilty look. He knew from the beginning that it was poisoning, and he also knew that the soldiers did not die from the plague, but from poisoning.

However, he said nothing, but instead deliberately misled the other imperial physicians.

Hearing all this, Chu Junting knew that there were other people in the military camp besides Physician Jin, or at least... the poisoning was done by someone else.

"Do you know who that man in black is?" Chu Yungui asked.

Physician Jin shook his head, "I really don't know. He always wore a mask and was highly skilled in martial arts. I had no chance against him at all."

However, I noticed his boots when I looked down; they were the kind only found in military camps, so I guessed he was in the camp.

Chu Yungui looked at Chu Junting. Neither of them was surprised by the answer. Since the other party was deliberately using Physician Jin, it was impossible for him to know his identity.

However, once they can confirm that the spy is in the military camp, they can find a way to locate him!

Chu Junting handed the imperial physician Jin over to Yunyang, instructing him to question him carefully. Now that he had opened his mouth, he would surely reveal everything.

"Your Majesty, what Physician Jin said is of no value. Doesn't that mean the clues have been lost?"

Chu Yungui frowned. He had finally made some discoveries, but Imperial Physician Jin knew nothing about them, so he could not continue the investigation.

"At least we know there's a traitor in the military camp, and we must find him."

Chu Junting's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty light. The military camp was full of brothers who had gone through thick and thin together, and he valued them the most.

Now that someone has infiltrated his camp, he will not only find the traitor, but also make him suffer the agony of being slowly sliced ​​to death!

Chu Yungui nodded, and he could feel the chilling killing intent just by looking into his third brother's eyes.

Soon, Chu Junting gathered a few people and began to investigate the traitor.

When the lieutenants learned that there was a traitor in their camp, their faces turned ashen. They didn't even need Chu Junting to say anything; they were already determined to kill him!

This kind of bastard, once caught by them, must be torn to pieces!

After writing down the prescription for the antidote, Song Ruozhen discussed the basic medicinal materials needed to treat the plague with several imperial physicians before going out to find Chu Junting.

All the other imperial physicians had to stay in their tents at this time. Even if they needed to go out to relieve themselves, they had to be accompanied by soldiers.

As soon as she stepped out of the tent, she noticed that the atmosphere outside was extremely tense, with a sense of impending doom.

"Imperial Physician Jin has confessed, but he doesn't know much."

Chu Junting was giving instructions when he saw Song Ruozhen walk out of the tent, and he immediately walked over quickly.

"Zhen'er, where are you going?" Chu Junting asked.

Song Ruozhen handed over the prescription, saying, "These medicinal herbs need to be delivered as soon as possible. We can't delay. Also, the poisoned soldiers need to be properly cared for."

We will try our best to find a cure for the plague, but this is never easy, and you should be prepared.

Chu Junting glanced at the prescription and handed it to his deputy, saying, "Send a message back to the palace immediately."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After the deputy general left, Chu Junting recounted everything that Physician Jin had said.

He handed a letter to Song Ruozhen, saying, "This was given to me by the man in black. Doctor Jin couldn't tell who he was, and I don't know if it will be of any help."

Song Ruozhen immediately understood, "I can calculate it."

As she spoke, she remembered that she had already handed the matter over to the Dali Temple for investigation, and now so much time had passed, she wondered if the Dali Temple had made any progress.

"Are the people from the Dali Temple trustworthy?" Song Ruozhen asked.

Chu Junting's handsome eyes narrowed slightly as he pondered and said, "The Dali Temple is under the Emperor's control. They are responsible for investigating various cases on a daily basis, especially the Minister of the Dali Temple, who can be described as a genius at solving cases."

Apart from my father, no one else can command the people of the Dali Temple, so I think they are trustworthy.

Hearing this, Song Ruozhen breathed a sigh of relief.

Since this was a grand scheme orchestrated by the other side, there are likely many pawns involved. Since Imperial Physician Jin was bribed, it's not impossible that the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review was also involved.

If the people from the Dali Temple take the opportunity to frame someone during this investigation, things will become even more complicated.

But if the other party is trustworthy, then since this matter has become so big, we can take this opportunity to wipe them out in one fell swoop!

"I had previously calculated the location of the plague outbreak, and my father immediately informed the Emperor, and the people from the Dali Temple went to investigate."

If we were moving quickly enough, we should already have some leads.

Song Ruozhen's eyes darkened slightly. "We haven't directly confronted each other before, but now they've taken the initiative to frame you. They not only want to take this opportunity to kill you, but also to ruin your reputation."

In my opinion, we should take this opportunity to ensure they have absolutely no chance of turning things around.

It's either them or us.

Chu Junting looked at the fierceness in Song Ruozhen's eyes; he had almost never seen such an expression on her face before.

This time, however, she was truly determined to kill.

“I understand, I won’t give them a chance to turn things around.”

At this moment, although neither of them spoke directly, they had already discerned from each other's eyes who their opponent was.

Actually... it's not hard to guess at all.

Since the loss of their son, the Ling family must have been harboring resentment. When Ruan Niantang got engaged, the Ling family couldn't hold back and wanted to sabotage the engagement.

But now... this is their grand strategy!

If he couldn't turn the tide, the King of Chu was completely finished!

But once they turn the tables, what they want is for the Ling family and even Prince Che to be completely destroyed!

Chu Junting's expression was solemn. He had to deal with these guys as soon as possible, otherwise he would only cause Zhen'er to worry about him.

Before he could even finish organizing the evidence he had gathered during this period, he received a huge gift from the other party!
