It wasn't until she returned to the hall to wash and change her clothes, sat down calmly, and checked her pulse with her backhand, that she found that her pulse was thin and weak.

The pulse is still a bit weird, the rhythm is disordered, there is no order, and it is more like a poison in the body.

Even if it's a cold, the pulse shouldn't be here.

When he landed, his expression immediately became solemn.

I also felt a chill in my heart, and my whole body felt like I had been poured ice water.

Yan Yan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

She has to be calm and can't mess with herself!

Qian Yan instructed the servants, "Aunt Qin, Xiaolian, you pay attention to the palace maids and eunuchs in the Tilting Pear Palace, and in addition, help me call Imperial Doctor Cao in." ”

As soon as the voice fell, Aunt Qin and Xiaolian's faces were a little solemn.

Xiaolian almost immediately trotted out and went to ask Imperial Doctor Cao.

When Aunt Qin arrived in the courtyard, she quietly paid attention to the palace maids and eunuchs.

The small kitchen made some light breakfast, and Xiao Guizi asked people to serve it to the dining table in the hall.

Due to physical discomfort and worry, he lost his appetite.

She looked at the table of breakfast, and had no appetite.

At the same time, a little worried about whether this food will be poisonous?

At present, Qian Yan only knows that he may have been poisoned.

As for the exact poison, the minions will not know until they find out the source of the poison.

Aunt Qin called the palace maid to come in and test the poison as usual.

The test is divided into two parts, one part is to test the poison with a silver needle.

If the silver needle has been tried, the palace maid still needs to try it.

I saw that after the palace maid tested the poison and tried it, she stood aside and waited.

Aunt Qin persuaded: "Niangniang, why don't you eat some, otherwise the imperial heir in your belly will not be nutritious." ”

Sitting there with a frown, she waved her hand, indicating that she still couldn't eat.

After a while, Imperial Doctor Cao and Xiaolian entered the house.

Imperial Doctor Cao has always been very knowledgeable about etiquette.

But when she entered the house, she saw that her face was wrong, and Xiaolian probably told her about the situation.

Therefore, as soon as she entered the room, she forgot the etiquette, but sat down next to Qian Yan, and hurriedly diagnosed Qian Yan's pulse.

As soon as Imperial Doctor Cao put his fingertips on Tan Yan's wrist, his expression became solemn.

After a few breaths, she said solemnly: "Niangniang, you are poisoned." ”

"yes, I think so, too." When I gave myself a pulse diagnosis, I felt the same way.

But the doctor can't treat herself, so for the sake of insurance, she still called Imperial Doctor Cao over.

Now that Imperial Doctor Cao's diagnosis is also like this, she is even more certain.

Imperial Doctor Cao: "Your food, clothing, and shelter must be checked quickly, otherwise if you continue like this, I am afraid that it will be detrimental to you and the imperial heir in your belly." ”

"When I woke up in the morning, I had already asked them to check." He pouted and pointed to a table of meals with his mouth, "No, I didn't dare to eat these breakfasts." ”

Imperial Doctor Cao: "Didn't your food test for poison?" ”

"Of course, I tested the poison, and the palace maid tried it." Qian Yan looked at the food on the table with a worried expression, "But I'm afraid that some poisons can't be tried, but there is a big problem when you eat them in your stomach." ”

She hated the feeling of being calculated.

And you don't know where the other person's poison is.

This unknown danger can be very uneasy, anxious, and worried.

Will you drink water and worry about the water source or water bottle?

When eating, are you worried about whether the food will be poisoned?

Even the clothes you wear and the yard where you live, you are worried about whether someone has done something?

What is more terrifying than open fighting is secret fighting!

You never know who's behind it.

I don't know where the problem is, and I can't prevent it.

Thinking of this, his face frowned slightly, and his body seemed to be even more uncomfortable.

Imperial Doctor Cao looked at his uncomfortable face and persuaded, "Why don't you go to bed and rest first?" ”

Qian Yan shook his head and supported his forehead with one hand, "No, the matter hasn't been found out, how can I have the heart to rest." ”

When Tilt Yan discussed things with Imperial Doctor Cao, Aunt Qin and Xiaolian both went to the courtyard to supervise the minions.

Only the palace maid who tried the poison and food stood behind Qian Yan.

At this moment, the palace maid suddenly squatted down, holding her stomach and softly screaming in pain.

When Qian Yan and Imperial Doctor Cao heard the movement, they all turned their heads to look at the palace maid.

Immediately afterwards, Qian Yan and Imperial Doctor Cao glanced at each other, and knew the meaning in the other party's eyes, and there seemed to be a clue!

Qian Yan asked the palace maid, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Back to the mother's words, the slave has a stomachache and is a little nauseous." The palace maid returned.

Hearing this, Imperial Physician Cao immediately squatted down, put the palace maid's wrist on her knee, and checked the palace maid's pulse.

"Niangniang, except for the happy pulse, her pulse is almost the same as yours." Imperial Doctor Cao said, picked up the palace maid, and sat beside Qian Yan.

So, Qian Yan also diagnosed the pulse of the palace maid.

After the consultation, she said to Imperial Doctor Cao: "You are right, her pulse is similar to mine, and she is my test poison and food test maid, so in this way, the problem is not in clothing and housing, but in food." ”

Imperial Doctor Cao: "Meals? Did she just eat the contents of her stomach? ”

"I don't think so, but I'll have to ask her specifically." ”

The palace maid didn't understand what to say to Imperial Doctor Cao.

Qian Yan just put her hand nervously on her stomach, as if only in this way could she truly feel that the imperial heir in her belly still existed.

Then she asked the maid, "When did you start feeling unwell?" ”

Palace maid: "When I just tried it, the slave maid was a little nauseous, and as soon as I finished tasting it, I began to have abdominal pain." ”

"Started to feel bad when you tried it?" He frowned and pondered, "So, it has nothing to do with today's breakfast." ”

The palace maid frowned, very uncomfortable, "Niangniang, slave, slave maid wants to go to the thatched house." ”

"Let's go." Leaning Yan waved his hand, "Call Xiaolian in after you're done." ”

"Yes." With permission, the palace maid almost rushed to the thatched house.

Imperial Doctor Cao and Qian Yan sat down again.

Imperial Doctor Cao: "Niangniang, you are pregnant and your physique is weaker, so the poisoning appeared early." ”

"But the palace maid is not pregnant, and her physique is better than yours, so there is poisoning now."

"Hongu thinks so too."

Qian Yan agrees with Imperial Doctor Cao's opinion, "From the current point of view, it should be that there was a problem with yesterday's food, and it may even be that there has been a chronic poisonous food in my diet. ”

Imperial Doctor Cao: "Anyway, now the scope of our examination has been reduced, and it is in the area of diet." ”

"And the sooner we find out, the more we can detoxify you according to the poison."

Qian Yan nodded, and after looking at Imperial Doctor Cao, the two of them looked at the breakfast on the table in unison.

A moment later, as soon as Xiaolian came in, she saw Qian Yan and Imperial Doctor Cao each staring at a plate of food.

The two of them first carefully observed the shape of the food, and then put it on the tip of their nose to smell the smell.

Finally, it is also placed on the fingertips and twisted, and the broken food is examined.

Xiaolian saw that Qian Yan and Imperial Doctor Cao were serious, so she didn't bother the two of them.

Instead, he sat down at the dining table and brought a plate of plum blossom cakes to check there.

Qian Yan was holding a bowl of polenta.

Imperial Doctor Cao holds a plate of egg cakes.

After a while, Xiaolian seemed to have discovered something strange.

She learned to tilt Yan and Imperial Doctor Cao, pinched some plum blossom cake and twisted it between her fingertips.

Then, her eyes widened, staring at the fragments of plum blossom petals of different colors on her fingertips.

"Niangniang, how do you think that this plum blossom petal is a little different, not like a flower, but more like a different flower." Xiaolian pulled the corner of her clothes.

After hearing this, he immediately put down the work in his hand.

The two approached Xiaolian and looked at the crumbs of pastries between Xiaolian's fingers.

Those pastries were stained with pink plum petal fragments.

"I'm not very good at looking, this thing is too thin, I can't understand it." As a female official, Imperial Physician Cao was familiar with all kinds of poems, songs and medical books since she was a child.

A pair of eyes have long been less bright than ordinary people, and their eyesight is not very good.

Instead, he squinted at the crumbs of pastry in Xiaolian's hand.

Moreover, she also pinched a little and put it in her palm.

The food here is not adulterated, and no colors and flavors are added.

If it is said to be a plum blossom cake, it is really made of plum blossoms.

It's just that now in the summer, there are no fresh plum blossoms, so they are made from sun-dried plum blossoms.

After looking at it carefully for a while, she said to Imperial Doctor Cao: "Imperial Doctor Cao, I remember that it was recorded in the medical book that there was a kind of flower called five-colored plum that was poisonous. ”

"If you eat it, you will have abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, fever, and loss of appetite, right?"

And she almost has these symptoms.

Five-color plums come in yellow, red, pink, orange, and sometimes blue.

It's just that the poisoner didn't choose any other color, only pink similar to plum blossoms.

Because the five-colored plum blossoms are open in clusters and like a ball, they are also called five-color hydrangeas in the northern bordering country.

The flowering season is from May to October, and if the weather is right, the five-color plum can bloom all year round.

And now, it is the season of five-color plum blossoms.

Hearing this, Imperial Doctor Cao also instantly came to his senses.

She stared at the crumbs of pastries in the hands of Qian Yan and Xiaolian, and replied, "Wusemei does have the symptoms you mentioned, and, in severe cases, jaundice." ”

At the end, she asked, "What's the matter, but there are five-colored plums in this plum blossom cake?" ”

Qian Yan nodded, "There are two kinds of plum blossom petals in this plum blossom cake, although they are both pink, but one is a sun-dried plum blossom petal, which is relatively thin. ”

"There is also a slightly thicker and darker color, that is, the five-color plum, if you don't look closely, you can't see it if you just put it in your mouth and chew it."

In addition, the color of plum blossoms and five-color plums is somewhat similar.

What's more, crushing and mixing in pastries can achieve the effect of being fake.

Moreover, the city that was designed behind the scenes is very deep, and there are no five-colored plums.

Rather, it is mixed with most of the half-true plum blossoms, which can be said to be half-truths and half-truths.

When Imperial Doctor Cao heard such a meticulous murder plan, his whole person was a little creepy.

"Oh my God, such a tiny detail, it's a shame that the man can figure it out!" She smacked her tongue a little frightenedly, "It's just, how are you sure that this is mixed with five-colored plums?" ”

Tilting Yan: "The palace originally didn't know about the five-color plum, but the backyard of the pear hall has recently opened, and the palace sometimes walks through there, and when you see a lot, you become familiar with it." ”

Speaking of this, he slapped his palm, and then slapped the plum blossom cake in his hand.

She turned her head and instructed Xiaolian, "You go pick some five-colored plums." ”

In order to have a more definite comparison, Qian Yan felt that it was better to compare the five-color plum.

"Okay." Xiaolian got up to pick flowers as she spoke.

"By the way, next to the five-colored plum, isn't there a piece of Huang Dujuan? You can pick some of them too, and it's better not to be discovered. He commanded again.

In this regard, Xiaolian responded and went out.

After touching a cup of tea, Xiaolian came back again.

As soon as she returned, she took a few five-colored plums from her left sleeve pocket, and then touched a handful of yellow rhododendrons from her right sleeve pocket.

Tanyan took a five-color plum flower and contrasted it with the petal fragments in the plum blossom cake.

Seeing this, Imperial Doctor Cao also followed Tianyan to make a comparison.

In the end, both of them determined that the plum blossom cake was mixed with some five-colored plums.

According to the poisoning phenomenon of the face, it is also consistent with the five-color plum, which is a sure thing.

And the five-color plum is not a chronic poison, but will be poisoned about a day after eating.

In the early stage of poisoning, gastrointestinal symptoms are the main symptoms, such as loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and then cardiac symptoms.

And Qian Yan was unwell this morning, and the palace maid who tried it was also unwell not long ago.

Then, the person behind the scenes started poisoning her yesterday.

Qian Yan thought about it, she did have plum blossom cake yesterday.

But the food will be cleaned up every day, and yesterday's pastries will definitely not be found.
