Chapter 124: Secret Medicine
Chapter 124: Secret Medicine
Shen Yindi was just waiting for the emperor to say this!
She let out a soft, mock sigh.
Then he said: "In fact, the most difficult poison to cure Chu Yan does not seem to be a poison that would appear in the Great Chu."
"I have read many medical books, and this poison seems to be a secret medicine of the Zhaoyue Kingdom's royal family."
When the King of Chu heard this, he was stunned.
Then his eyes narrowed slightly, emitting a dangerous aura.
Shen Yindi observed the emperor's reaction calmly, and continued, "This poison was contracted five years ago. It has a long dormant period, and will erupt when the time is right. This is Chu Yan's current state."
"The reason why I didn't tell you before is because Chu Yan often told me that you used to be particularly fond of his mother and treated her very well. If I told you, I'm afraid it would affect her image in your mind."
"Of course, she has no choice about her origins, but I don't want to ruin the beauty in your mind."
“I thought that perhaps the people of Zhaoyue Country also wanted Chu Yan to die.”
As the King of Chu listened, his expression became increasingly grim.
Shen Yindi didn't know what he was thinking, and didn't dare to speculate now.
"I know about this. I will order someone to investigate it thoroughly!"
"Your most important task now is to heal him."
"I know!"
After saying this, Shen Yindi left the palace quickly.
Although she had just stated that she did not want a reward, the emperor still gave her two hundred taels of gold when she left, just like before.
Tell her to take good care of Chu Yan.
With these precious medicinal herbs, Shen Yindi couldn't suppress the smile on her lips on the way back.
Only Chu Yan was worried about him at home.
I sat in the yard again waiting for her to come back.
Chu Yan's heart was finally at ease when he saw her walk in with a smile on her face.
He immediately stood up and came to greet her.
"Adi, how are you? Are you okay? Did the emperor blame you?" Chu Yan's voice was a little anxious.
Shen Yindi smiled brightly: "Of course it's okay, not only is there no blame, there is also a reward!"
"Let's go back to the room and I'll tell you in detail." Shen Yindi said with a smile. She took Chu Yan's hand and quickly returned to the room.
She knew that Chu Yan must be very worried about her.
After returning to the room, Shen Yindi told him everything about today's meeting with the emperor.
After Chu Yan heard this, there was surprise in his eyes.
It was as if he was shocked by his princess.
Shen Yindi couldn't help but laugh when she saw his expression.
"What? Are you stupid?" She squeezed his hand.
"Adi, you are amazing. You can turn the situation around immediately. You made our originally passive situation safe."
"We have also become victims! In this way, our father will definitely not vent his anger on us." Chu Yan said firmly.
At this moment, he really admired his princess.
Thoughtful and courageous, with an active mind.
"That's why I told you not to worry. I'm not someone who can be bullied!"
"Look, not only will the emperor not blame me, he has also given me so much as a reward. Many of these medicines are priceless treasures! If I were to buy them myself, I would definitely not be able to get them."
"These medicines are indeed very helpful to your body, and I did not lie to the emperor." Shen Yindi said confidently.
"Adi, should I pretend to be sick for a while? My father should send someone over to verify it." Chu Yan knew something about the emperor.
"Okay, just cooperate and act out a scene. Also, we need to talk to Lord Mu and ask him to come over and give a statement first, otherwise it will be exposed. And he can also help us act together."
"In that case, I will order Shadow to go and invite Ning Yuan over." Chu Yan was also very decisive.
"can."
Shen Yindi also knew that some things were best said face to face.
Especially something this serious.
Mu Ningyuan had been handling official business at the Dali Temple and did not come until the evening.
Shen Yindi suggested that they have dinner together here.
This time Mu Ningyuan did not refuse.
He was in a good mood this time. After returning from hunting, he found that his mother's health was obviously much better.
During the time he was at the hunting lodge, Shen Yindi personally prepared the medicine and delivered it to his house, and fed it to his mother personally, without asking anyone else to do it.
Originally, I asked Uncle Fu and Aunt Fu to go over there.
But since she came back early, she must have gone there in person.
Chu Yan told him everything about the emperor summoning Shen Yindi today.
"Ning Yuan, when father asks about it, please be prepared to explain your story," Chu Yan warned.
"Okay, I can cooperate, just like Miss Shen said just now."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Lord Mu." Shen Yindi raised his glass and toasted him.
"Miss Shen, you are too polite. It's just a small favor. Besides, this is also for Yun Yi's own good. Your move is really brilliant!"
"Today we have indeed found out that the totem on the assassin is a unique totem on the bodies of the Zhaoyue Kingdom's royal assassins. I'm sure someone will bring it up during the court tomorrow. Who knows if it will involve Yun Yi."
"Now that you have taken the initiative and seized the opportunity, the emperor will surely be able to treat it more rationally and soberly!"
Shen Yindi smiled. She felt that she had given Emperor Chu enough preventive measures today.
"That's better. It's worth my dry mouth talking about it."
After a moment's silence, Shen Yindi asked again: "Master Mu, since the totem has been found, how could they hide in the hunting villa? Have you found it?"
"There should be an insider, right?" Shen Yindi was more concerned about this matter.
Mu Ningyuan shook his head, his face looking a little solemn.
"Nothing can be found. All the people involved have been silenced." His voice was a little low.
"Why don't we check if there are other spies from Zhaoyue Kingdom in the imperial capital?" Shen Yindi asked again.
"Already checking."
"It's just that the flow of people in the imperial capital is huge. If the other party has accomplices in the city, it will be even more difficult to investigate. But we in the Dali Temple will never let down our guard." Mu Ningyuan said solemnly.
"Thank you, Master Mu."
"Miss Shen, you don't have to be polite. This is my job."
"And my mother's condition has gradually improved in the past few days. This is all thanks to Miss Shen. I would like to thank Miss Shen very much!"
"Master Mu, you don't have to be polite. You are my prince's only friend, and of course you are also my friend. I will do my best to do my best. I will go to check Aunt's pulse in three days."
"Okay." Mu Ningyuan agreed with a smile.
After dinner, Mu Ningyuan did not stay for too long, as he still had many things to deal with. Besides, there must be someone secretly watching Chu Yan.
Even though the distance is not as close as before, it is certainly impossible to completely ignore it.
Shen Yindi and Chu Yan returned to the room.
Willow branches on the moon.
Chu Yan asked thoughtfully, "Adi, what you said today about the poison in my body being a secret medicine from Zhaoyue Country, is it true, or did you say that on purpose for my father to hear?"
