After the death of the previous emperor, the Empress Dowager became arrogant

Chapter 157 Tea



Chapter 157 Tea

Logically speaking, there is absolutely no possibility of the news being leaked. They are guarding the palace very strictly. If it is leaked, it can only be that something went wrong with their own people.

There is another possibility, that there is someone in the enemy camp who can see the chess game.

If that were the case, things would become much more difficult.

Wen Chengyu obviously also thought of the problem here. He frowned, and Chu Yu's face did not look good, as if blood was about to spurt out in the next moment.

Yuan Qing's heart was tightly gripped.

Wen Chengyu changed the subject and looked at Yuan Bo, "Should we start that thing now?"

Yuan Qing turned to look at his father and found that he just thought for a moment before saying, "I'll prepare it when I get home today."

Yuan Qing was completely confused by what they were talking about.

Wen Chengyu looked at her and said, "When you go back today, just pretend that you know nothing and go to work as usual. You can't even tell Lu Zhao."

Yuan Qing was stunned. "I don't know anything in the first place. How can I explain this?"

Wen Chengyu and Yuan Bo looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding.

Yuan Bo touched her head and said, "It's best not to know. We'll know the answer in a few days at the latest."

After leaving Qinghe Hall, Yuan Qing met the miracle doctor who treated Wen Chengyu outside, but he seemed to have difficulty in walking, so he sat in a wheelchair with a translucent gauze covering his head.

Is he the blind doctor who claims to be a miracle healer?

Yuan Qing looked at him more closely and seemed to really see the white cloth covering his eyes through the gauze.

The blind doctor seemed to notice her gaze and stared in her direction as if he understood something.

He dodged subconsciously and wanted to raise his hands, but they could only hang weakly on his knees.

Yuan Qing knew that it was a bit offensive to stare at a stranger like that, but she still felt something was wrong.

When Eunuch Shun saw her, he hurriedly said, "You haven't gone home yet, how about I ask someone to take you back?"

"I will wait for my father to go together and return to the mansion later." Yuan Qing looked at the figure sitting in the wheelchair in the distance, "Father, can you tell me about that person?"

Eunuch Shun looked back and sighed, "He is also a miserable person."

"how do I say this?"

Eunuch Shun took her aside and stood in the corridor and said, "Doctor Mu suffered misfortune when he was young. His hands and feet were cut off, his eyes were gouged out, and he was thrown into a pile of beggars. The beggars felt sorry for him and went to the streets every day to beg for food for him, so he survived. Later, he volunteered to find the Prime Minister and said he wanted to treat your majesty. As you know, your majesty has always been in poor health. After a lot of investigation, the Prime Minister obtained the consent of the Empress Dowager to let him enter the palace to treat your majesty's old illness. Well, I can't stay any longer. Since you want to wait, please go to the side hall to rest. I will go in and serve your majesty first."

Eunuch Shun walked in with his back bent, but what he had just said stirred up a huge wave in Yuan Qing's heart.

She finally realized what was wrong.

For ancient doctors, hands are the most important.

However, this divine doctor Mu not only had disabled hands and feet, but even ordinary lifting became a problem for him. The "palpation" in "look, smell, ask and palpate" was his biggest problem. A doctor has his own medical habits, and a good doctor can only make the most accurate judgment on the pathology by personally analyzing the patient from the inside out.

This was also one of the points she doubted.

Secondly, this person came to us at this time, and it was hard to guarantee whether he was sent by the enemy.

But then she thought again, Chinese medicine is an extremely sophisticated art, and her superficial knowledge might not even be enough to get started.

She was indeed over-judging. Perhaps Doctor Mu really had the ability to practice medicine based on his perceptions.

Yuan Qing smiled and walked towards the side hall.

She returned to Yuan Mansion with her father.

Lou Yin stayed at Madam Yan's house to keep her company and did not go home, so now there are only the two of them, father and daughter, in the mansion.

Yuan Qing led his father into the study and showed him the selected memorials.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Bo only glanced at it and then closed it, saying, "I already knew about this."

"I knew that a long time ago?" Yuan Qing picked up the memorial and took a look. "Could it be that everything written here is true?"

"No," Yuan Bo shook his head, "I had not anticipated the sudden onset of this strange disease, but Your Majesty and I had similar calculations, so I came up with this plan."

Yuan Qing was "driven" out of the Yuan Mansion by Yuan Bo that night.

Yuan Qing had no choice but to walk slowly towards Lu Mansion.

Halfway through the journey, she suddenly realized with horror that she seemed to have left Yuan Yi in the palace!

Oh shit, it’s all over! It’s all over!

She was about to run back, hoping to get into the palace once more before the ban was imposed.

As soon as she turned around, she bumped into someone's chest, and her nose wrinkled in pain.

The person in front of her leaned forward nervously, took her hand away and tried to look.

Yuan Qing held it tightly and was unwilling to let go, his voice muffled in his palm, "Don't move, just let it heal on its own."

"Come on, I'll take you home," Yuan Yi walked beside her. There was nothing wrong with his voice, and he was still as calm as ever. "It seems inappropriate for you to continue living in that place. You should find a new place to live in time to avoid gossip."

Yuan Qing thought, in the eyes of outsiders, they are just two grown men, superiors and subordinates, so what gossip could there be?

But she still nodded and said, "I know, I'm watching it."

Yuan Yi curled the corners of his lips imperceptibly, lowered his hands and moved closer to her. The two of them were so close that the heat could pass through the layers of fabric.

Yuan Qing looked at him strangely, "Are you cold?"

The corners of Yuan Yi's mouth that had just been raised fell down at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he replied stiffly: "It's not cold."

"If you're not cold, then why do you always stay close to me?"

Yuan Yi gritted his teeth and said, "I was not careful when I walked."

Yuan Qing: “Oh.”

Then moved further away.

Yuan Yi: "..."

Yuan Qing did not see Lu Zhao. Because of the conversation in the palace, she was not worried about any uncontrollable events.

Eat when it’s time to eat, sleep when it’s time to sleep, and work when it’s time to work.

Since no one could dig out any useful information from her, they stopped wasting time on her, and the Dali Temple returned to a brief peace.

What spread through the Imperial Medical Office was the shocking case of His Majesty being poisoned.

Although His Majesty has now regained consciousness, the follow-up of the poisoning case still needs to be investigated. This matter has been pushed back and forth and finally fell to the Dali Temple, with the Ministry of Justice assisting in the investigation.

Soon they found the attackers.

There were many varieties of tea in the palace, making it difficult to check, but fortunately every transaction into the warehouse was recorded. The palace sent hundreds of palace servants to check the account books day and night, and finally found some clues on the third night.

The leading eunuch took the results of the investigation and went to find Eunuch Shun in fear.

Eunuch Shun took the account and took a closer look. "What is this?"
