Chapter 71 Poisoning
"Empress, it's better to let Wei Chen give you a diagnosis and treatment, so that people can feel at ease."

Li Langzhong performed the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, with a sincere attitude, and he looked at the empress's weak face with worried eyes.

"Miss."

Zeng Xiaoxiao looked at the empress's hesitant look, and nodded firmly towards her.

The queen supported the sick body firmly, feeling that it would be crumbling at any time.

"You come with me."

The queen stretched out her hand towards Zeng Xiaoxiao, and said a few words with difficulty.

Seeing this, Zeng Xiaoxiao hurriedly got up and supported the empress.

"Empress, don't worry."

Afterwards, several people came to the Queen's bedroom.

"Mother-in-law, I will serve you a little."

Zeng Xiaoxiao carefully helped the empress to lie down, and brought cushions to make the empress more comfortable.

"Your Majesty, I will take your pulse."

Despite Li Langzhong's age, he still knelt down.

"Eunuch Wang, grant a seat to Imperial Physician Li."

After watching Li Taiji sit down, the empress stretched out her hand, and under the gaze of everyone, she checked her pulse and asked for a diagnosis.

After doctor Li's consultation, his brows were tightly furrowed.

Li Langzhong's expression made everyone's hearts sink.

"Mr. Li, what's the matter?"

The prince said cautiously.

"Who has been taking care of the Queen's illness?"

Doctor Li did not directly answer Wang Gonggong's question, but asked rhetorically.

"They are all under the care of Imperial Physician Liu of the Imperial Hospital, what's the matter?"

Wang Gonggong looked at Li Taiyi's hesitant appearance, and asked in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, this is a poison accumulated over time."

Li Langzhong thought about it and decided to tell the truth.

"What? When did the empress get poisoned?"

Wang Gonggong said in horror.

"It's been five or six years, I'm afraid."

Speaking, Li Langzhong sighed.

He stroked his gray beard, then came to the table.

"No, Imperial Physician Liu is the most respected imperial physician with the best medical skills in the imperial hospital. It is also an imperial physician selected by Concubine Jing from the private sector at a cost of tens of thousands of gold. How could there be any problems?"

The empress struggled to get up and explained unhurriedly.

She didn't believe that she was really sick, because Doctor Liu didn't even diagnose it.

And it's been so many years.

Physician Liu said that it was because of his frail body and illnesses in his mother's womb that he looked like this now.

She also knew in her heart that she had been in poor health since she was a child, so it was not surprising that she looked like this now.

On weekdays, I take good care of myself, and I have never seen any problems, that is, I am a little anorexic.

Unexpectedly, in the past few days, he suddenly became seriously ill.

I thought my body was weak and time was running out, but I suddenly learned that I had been poisoned for five or six years.

The queen thought of this, and then showed panic, "Who poisoned herself, and who can not be discovered by herself for five or six years? Or, is this Li Taiyi the same Li Taiyi back then?"

The queen looked Li Taiyi up and down, trying to see something from his face.

"Empress, don't worry, I risked my life and came to you in the capacity of Imperial Physician Li this time, just to repay the kindness of saving my life back then."

How could Imperial Physician Li fail to see the Queen's careful thinking, so he quickly explained.

"If the empress doesn't believe it, I have a way to prove it."

Before the Queen could speak, Imperial Physician Li took out a bag of white powder from his pocket.

"Empress, I brought you a present when I came this time. This is a bag of pearl powder that I got during my travels. I heard that you like it, so I brought it specially. It has the effect of beautifying and beautifying the skin. You You can give it a try."

As he said that, Li Taiyi said to Wang Gonggong: "Please Wang Gonggong, bring me a pot of water."

Eunuch Wang nodded, although he couldn't figure out why, he still asked people to do so.

"This is?"

I saw Li Langzhong put the white pearl powder in a small bowl, then picked up the teapot and brewed it.

"This is tea made from pearl powder, which has the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin."

While stirring, Li Langzhong answered the prince's question.

"Our lady, this is my favorite drink, even when I'm sick, I want to have a bowl every day."

Wang Gonggong said sincerely, seeing Li Langzhong handing it to him, he quickly reached out to catch it.

"Young lady, try it."

The prince tried his best to please the queen and the empress.

The queen looked at Zeng Xiaoxiao and Li Langzhong suspiciously, not knowing what they were selling.

Under Zeng Xiaoxiao's comforting eyes, she was dubious and took a sip.

"It's not pearl powder."

The queen took a sip, then turned her head away, not wanting to drink any more.

"Empress, this is pearl powder. When I traveled to the southern countries, I went to see a doctor in a family. The family was very grateful and insisted on me accepting it."

"On the streets of the southern country, there are countless pearl powders of this kind. But it's so good, and that's all I have in my hand."

Li Langzhong explained unhurriedly.

"Then why is it different from what Bengong usually drinks?"

After listening to Li Taiyi's explanation, the queen still couldn't believe it.

If you believe in Li Taiyi, then what do you drink on weekdays?

"Empress, what do you mean?"

Doctor Li asked questions knowingly and followed every step step by step.

"On weekdays, what I take is the pearl powder that Concubine Jing specially entrusted someone to buy from the southern country. However, it will be a bit astringent. After taking it for many years, I feel that it does have the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin."

"Astringent? Can you show it to Weichen?"

"Prince, give it to him."

At this moment, the empress is also a little curious.

How can something from the same place taste completely different when taken?
"Back to Empress, this is not pearl powder."

Doctor Li knelt down and kowtowed, looking terrified, as if he had discovered some great secret.

But these words made the Queen's voice tremble.

"Pearl powder was tested by the imperial hospital, how could it be fake?"

The queen held the quilt tightly with her hands, trying hard to think about which link went wrong.

"This is lime powder. It looks similar to pearl powder, but this is poisonous. If taken for a long time, it will cause confusion and weakness."

Doctor Li remained calm and explained patiently.

"Impossible, it's impossible. How could it be, how dare she?"

The queen finally couldn't control it anymore and became emotional.Even Wang Gonggong, who has served her for so many years, has never seen such a scene.

"Empress, empress, please don't do this, take care of yourself, you still have us."

Wang Gonggong knelt on the head of the bed, comforting her with snot and tears.

"Empress, it's okay, it's okay, your body will get better soon."

Zeng Xiaoxiao could only comfort her when she saw that the queen was unwilling to accept the reality.

"Empress, luckily you found out in time. I will prescribe medicine right now, so that you will be cured soon."

Li Langzhong said, picked up the paper and pen, and prescribed the medicine.

"Sister, sister, are you awake?"

From far away outside the door, a charming voice came in.

As the sound got closer, the queen motioned for the prince to help him up.

"Who are you?! How dare you break into the queen's palace privately? This is a death penalty. You must be spies from the enemy country. Come and arrest them and beat them to death with sticks. Don't let the queen see the blood. It's not good for your health. "

With that said, the guards rushed in and arrested Zeng Xiaoxiao and Li Taiyi directly.

"Sister, they are my guests."

The queen quickly explained that she did not choose to tear her face apart. After all, at this time, her life and death were in the hands of the other party.

The only way to deal with her now is to take good care of her body as soon as possible so that she can compete with her.

"Sister, you are bewitched by them. I saw two people, one old and one young, they are not good people. Don't worry, sister, I will definitely not let you get hurt."

Concubine Jing looked very sorry for the queen, if she hadn't already known Concubine Jing's plot, the queen would have been very moved.
