Doting on concubines and destroying wives? I don’t want to be the mistress of the Hou clan anymore.

Chapter 48 Doubt

Although Jiang felt that Chen Jue was making a fuss, she also understood that he had an innocent heart, so she nodded in agreement.

"Let them see it."

After that, he added: "That friend...if there is a chance, let him come to see me."

"Okay, now that we've found out everything, I'll bring her to see my aunt."

He was asked to bring Mr. Natural History and the Imperial Physician into the mansion together. They only said that they wanted to show Jiang's body.

The two of them checked around the room, and the imperial doctor took Jiang's pulse again. He looked thoughtful, which made people feel uneasy.

"Madam, I wonder where are the prescriptions you use for daily conditioning? Which imperial physician did you receive treatment for?"

The imperial doctor asked Mr. Jiang respectfully.

But Jiang said: "He is not an imperial doctor, but a famous doctor hired by the Duke of the State from outside. He is now living in the mansion."

Doctor Xu looked at Mr. Jiang seriously, then looked at Chen Jue, but hesitated to speak.

Jiang understood and asked the others to go out. Only Chen Jue and the imperial doctor were left in the room. Mr. Naturalist was also invited to drink tea.

"Your pulse is not a disease, it's poisoning."

"Poisoned? How is this possible?"

"Actually, it's not poisoning in the strict sense. It's just giving you some complementary food to keep your body weak."

"What do you mean? I have always been very careful about my diet. I never eat too much of foods that are mutually reinforcing."

"If possible, I will take my husband to your kitchen and verify the utensils you frequently use."

How can this kind of competition for favor among the inner chambers be better than that of the imperial palace?
I just wonder why Jiang was poisoned.

Jiang didn't quite understand. He just thought that the servant was resentful, so he immediately had people block the news.

Someone led the two gentlemen to the small kitchen in the yard, but after careful inspection, they found nothing.

The two looked and discussed, but found nothing, and both felt a little strange.

"Could it be that I saw it wrong?"

The two of them had known each other for a long time and knew each other's eyesight and abilities, but unexpectedly, nothing was found at home.

"Otherwise, I felt the wrong pulse," the imperial doctor said, stroking his beard, "Otherwise, the thing is hidden very deep."

The two people were asked to come over to check it out for verification. Now that nothing has been found, they can only tell the truth.

Chen Jue didn't expect that his visit would be in vain. He was a little embarrassed and scolded Lin Miaofu half to death in his heart.

"Auntie, it seems that my friend has taken advantage of the situation." Chen Jue bowed his hands, bowed, and apologized, then left with the imperial doctor and naturalist.

When he was leaving, he happened to meet Duke Yongyi, and they met and bowed.

"Why does my nephew have time to come here? Why don't you sit down for a while and let me do my best as a landlord."

Chen Jue said familiarly: "I'm here to see my aunt. Uncle, don't worry. I'm not an outsider. Why are you so polite!"

He didn't say what he was doing here.

Instead, he asked: "Why did uncle come back so early today?"

"There's nothing going on at the government office, so come back early to stay with your aunt."

The two exchanged pleasantries for a few more words and then parted ways at the door.

Mr. Naturalist glanced at the imperial doctor with hesitation in his eyes.

The two made eye contact and walked slower for a moment. Chen Jue looked back and said, "I didn't see you hesitating just now. What's wrong?"

"Little Marquis, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."

"Say." Chen Jue was feeling depressed and really didn't want to do this with him.

"There seems to be something wrong with the Duke." Mr. Naturalist said very tactfully. Chen Jue frowned deeper: "What do you mean by this?"

"You old devil, you are still hesitating at this time. You still don't know what the young marquis is like, tell me quickly!"

"The Duke of Guo has a dark fragrance on his body." Mr. Naturalist said: "This is not the smell of incense, but the fragrance of unformed poison. As long as it is mixed with tea, it becomes a colorless and odorless poison. "

"What are you talking about?" Chen Jue was very surprised. Don't say this nonsense!
"Little Marquis, I will never admit my mistake." Mr. Naturalist said, "This poison is called winter honeysuckle."

Chen Jue clasped his hands behind his back, wondering what he was thinking.

Suddenly asked: "Is there an antidote?"

"Yes, and no." Mr. Naturalist sighed and looked at the imperial doctor.

The imperial doctor answered smoothly: "If a man is poisoned by this poison, it doesn't matter. If a woman...especially a woman with insufficient Qi and blood, taking this poison will not be cured."

"What's the meaning!"

"This poison is a chronic poison, used to destroy the human body and Qi and blood." The imperial doctor said: "I heard that Mrs. Jiang suffered from avalanche syndrome when she gave birth for the second time... This is where she lost Qi and blood. A sign. She was able to live for so long only because she had a peaceful mind and nothing happened."

"If...if my mood fluctuates too much, I'm afraid I will die suddenly."

"This……"

Brother Qianjun is not here, and Chen Jue doesn't even have anyone to discuss it with.

Moreover, this is all just speculation. If he told Mrs. Jiang directly, she would definitely not be able to accept this fact.

"How can I check?"

"There are a few women's questions that I'm not comfortable asking."

"If anyone can ask, please write it down and give it to me."

For some reason, Lin Miaofu's face suddenly appeared in front of Chen Jue's eyes and said, "Write it now."

After that, he walked to a nearby shop, asked them to borrow pen, paper and desk, and then hurried to find Lin Miaofu.

The imperial doctor and the naturalist followed his instructions and returned to the vicinity of the Duke's Mansion to wait for dispatch.

Lin Miaofu was about to go out and have a look. She wanted to find out what kind of business Wan Niang planned to do and see if she could take the opportunity to disrupt it.

Naturally, she didn't want to see the Hou family rise, so she wanted to bully others.

I happened to meet Chen Jue.

"Exactly, I need your help with something."

"I have something to do..."

"Don't worry." Chen Jue said: "This matter is of great importance. Although I don't know how you found out, I won't go into details, but you must confirm it for me now."

"what?"

Lin Miaofu didn't know what Chen Jue was going to say, she just felt baffled, so he held her wrist and walked out.

Su Su wanted to step forward, but was stopped by the two masters beside Chen Jue.

"Chen Jue, let me go." Lin Miaofu was furious, but she could only persuade her gently: "If you have anything to do, talk to me first, don't be so anxious."

"My fucking ass is on fire. I can't explain it. You come with me! The carriage said it."

After that, she dragged Lin Miaofu out and got into the carriage.

There were many diners in the restaurant, and there were also people outside.

Lin Miaofu was dragged directly into the carriage by a man, which naturally caused quite a stir, as well as Liang Yuqi, who had just returned home from visiting relatives and friends.

"Just now...were they Lin and Chen Jue?"
