Quick Wear: The Beautiful Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character Loses Her Memory

Chapter 347 The evil woman who used poison is not worthy of the imperial physician (4)

After changing his clothes, Chen Yanchuan boarded the carriage to the palace.

While waiting to be summoned, he unexpectedly saw his former brother-in-law, Baili Zhen.

The other party was dressed in brocade clothes and looked very formal.

Chen Yanchuan couldn't help but wonder why the other party appeared here. After all, he was an official, and the other party was just an ordinary businessman.

He walked carefully to Baili Zhen's side and asked softly, "Brother, what are you doing..."

Baili Zhen looked Chen Yanchuan up and down, then said, "Master Chen, please don't call me 'big brother' anymore. The engagement between you and my sister has been cancelled, and there is no connection between us anymore."

Chen Yanchuan's face turned stiff instantly, but he immediately changed his mind and thought, if Baili Zhen seemed to care more about the engagement and never mentioned Baili Yue's safety, didn't it mean that Baili Yue was very likely still alive?

Otherwise, with Baili Zhen's character, he would definitely not let me go easily, and might even come into conflict with me.

Just when Chen Yanchuan wanted to say something, the person who summoned them to meet the emperor had already come over.

The man said, "Master Chen, please follow me. Oh, by the way, Young Master Baili, please come with us as well."

Baili Zhen nodded, and then followed the eunuch to the place where the noodles were being served. Because he followed fast and closely, Chen Yanchuan did not notice that the eunuch secretly stuffed a few golden melon seeds into the eunuch's mouth.

After the eunuch received these things, he simply shook his wide sleeves, and then his hands were empty, as if he had taken nothing.

But the interior just nodded at Baili Zhen imperceptibly.

The three of them soon arrived at the palace where they would meet the emperor.

After Chen Yanchuan and Baili Zhen entered the palace, they knelt down and saluted, shouting in unison: "Long live the emperor!"

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, raised his hand slightly, and said, "Stand up."

After expressing their gratitude, Chen Yanchuan and Baili Zhen stood up with their hands hanging down.

The emperor glanced at the two of them and said, "Chen Yanchuan, you handled the plague quite well this time. I intend to promote you to the position of Left Medical Judge, but I don't know if you are up to the task!"

Chen Yanchuan replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, I will not let you down."

The emperor nodded and said, "Well, I believe in your ability and am willing to give you this opportunity."

Having said that, the emperor glanced at the eunuch beside him, the one who had just taken Baili Zhen's golden melon seeds, and saw that he had a worried look on his face.

"Xiao Xizi, what's with that expression on your face?" The emperor seemed to not understand why Qiao Xi suddenly had that expression.

"Your Majesty, a few days ago, the Imperial Observatory..." Qiao Xi did not say anything else, obviously wanting the emperor to think more deeply about it himself.

After hearing this, the emperor finally remembered that he once needed to avoid the left seat.

"Now that you mention it, I remember it." The emperor nodded. "Then, Chen Yanchuan, you should stop being the left medical judge for the time being. Wait until the stars change! The fate of the country is always more important than your official position."

The official position he had obtained was gone just like that, but Chen Yanchuan did not dare to show any displeasure on his face. He could only bow and reply, "Yes, I understand."

"Hmm!" The emperor was somewhat appreciative of his tact. He turned to look at Baili Zhen and said, "Baili Zhen, your family played an indispensable role in this matter! It's just that your sister's matter..."

Originally, Chen Yanchuan still had doubts about Baili Yue's life and death, but when he heard the emperor say this, the uneasiness in his heart was about to overflow.

"My little sister said before she died that she deserved to be able to exchange her life for the lives of thousands and millions of people." Baili Zhen's face was full of sorrow, "It's just that this epidemic is different."

Baili Zhen took out a few pieces of paper, on which were the prescriptions written by Baili Yue himself that day: "Some time ago, I didn't have any evidence, but I went to the epidemic area and studied various samples of water sources, food, etc.

As expected, my sister Baili Yue and I had the same guess. This is definitely not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster."

The emperor was also shocked when these words were spoken. He asked Qiao Xi beside him to take the pieces of paper from Baili Zhen's hand.

Baili Zhen continued, "This is the record I wrote down at the time. My younger sister did not make a mistake in her verification. This was a large-scale poisoning, but this poison is contagious and reproducible."

Then Baili Zhen talked about some of the characteristics of this poison and its onset conditions.

The emperor also sent people to compare the data and descriptions that Chen Yanchuan and others had written back earlier.

"Chen Yanchuan, what do you think?" The emperor had obviously believed Baili Zhen's words, but he still asked Chen Yanchuan beside him.

In fact, Chen Yanchuan had not yet digested the fact that Baili Yue was really dead, so he did not listen carefully to what the emperor and Baili Zhen discussed.

Suddenly being called by the emperor, he looked up in confusion, and then said: "Your humble servant...your humble servant!"

"Your Majesty, Lord Chen majored in medicine, and I'm afraid he doesn't know much about poisons." Baili Zhen seemed to be helping Chen Yanchuan out, but in fact he was just saying that the other party was incompetent.
