Chapter 89: The Crusade (I)
After the maids helped the concubine put on her longevity clothes, I withdrew from everyone, leaving only Imperial Doctor Chen, and did an amazing thing.
During his early years of medical studies, Dr. Chan studied with experienced practitioners in his hometown, and was exposed to the symptoms of patients with many fatal diseases, which accumulated valuable experience for his future diagnosis. Of course, Imperial Physician Chen also came into contact with many corpses that died unexpectedly, and came into contact with many obscure, cruel, and ingenious killing methods.
What I want Imperial Physician Chen to help me do now is to perform an autopsy on the concubine.
Doctor Chen bowed three times to the concubine's body, begging her to forgive him for his disrespect, and then carefully examined the concubine's head, eyes, nose, ears, mouth, limbs, and body parts. After checking that there was nothing suspicious, Imperial Physician Chen took out a silver needle and prepared for a drug test. This tiny silver needle shimmered with a strange brilliance in the light of the candle flame.
Imperial Physician Chen glanced at me, as if waiting for my final order.
I took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Try it!" ”
Imperial Physician Chen carefully pierced the silver needle into the concubine's throat, and after a while, he slowly pulled out the silver needle and wiped the blood stains on the needle with a cloth. "Huh?" Imperial Physician Chen looked at the silver needle with an incredible look.
I looked at it and was amazed, the color of the silver needle had not changed at all, it was still as white and dazzling as it was. "How so?" I wondered, "The concubine didn't get poison from her mouth, so how did she get poisoned?" Doctor Chen, is there any other way to make people die of arsenic? ”
"Your Royal Highness the Princess, the minister is lonely and unheard, and he doesn't know any other methods." Imperial Physician Chen bowed his head.
I stretched out my hand to help Imperial Physician Chen: "Imperial Physician's grace today, this princess remembers it in my heart." It's just that today's matter, the Imperial Doctor must remember not to mention it to anyone other than you and the princess, not even His Majesty and the queen's mother. The concubine is gone, and the princess doesn't want her to be disturbed in any way. ”
"The princess's words are to be taken to heart." Imperial Physician Chen waved again, "The minister retires!" He bowed his head and left, tidying up his tools.
I was lost in thought again. Who is the murderer? And how did the murderer poison him? Is there a mastermind behind it? What was the motive of the murderer and her mastermind for killing the concubine?
I sorted it out in my head, but I ended up with a terrible assumption. In order to confirm my hypothesis, I rushed to the Yeting Palace to temporarily isolate the maids and eunuchs in the palace without waiting for dawn. I'm going to ask Yun Qing about something.
I stood still in front of a row of low bungalows and motioned for the guards to open one of the doors, and Yun Qing was locked up here. It was dark and damp inside, with a musty smell. I motioned for Yuhan to wait for me at the door, and walked in alone.
Yun Qing stared at the wall opposite her, without a trace of expression. Her hair and clothes were a little messy, presumably caused by the guards pushing her on the way here. She heard the movement at the door, slowly turned her head to look at me, and said, "Yunqing didn't expect that the first one to come was the princess!" The princess is so suspicious of Yun Qing! ”
"I just want to know what happened in Chunhui Hall after the strange noise outside Yiyu Xuan in the second half of the night." I looked at Yun Qing.
"What?" Yun Qing changed color slightly.
"Now it's just you and me, you don't have to worry about anything." After saying that, I waited quietly.
