Yan Yan Yugui

Chapter 202 The Truth
Coincidentally, Xu Zhifeng is on duty tonight, and Lin Yanyan is also on duty. If there is no emergency at night, the Tai Hospital is surprisingly quiet.

In the middle of the night, when people were sleeping soundly, Lin Yanyan changed into night clothes, covered her face with a scarf, and listened for a while to make sure that there was no one outside. Walk to the dispensary with dim candlelight.

Xu Zhifeng and Xu Yuanyou were sleeping on the chair with their arms folded.

Dazedly, he seemed to see a black figure standing in front of him.

He thought he was dreaming and continued to sleep.

"Xu Zhifeng sleeps well!" A deep voice rang in his ears.

Xu Yuanyou was startled, and opened his eyes, only to realize that it was not a dream, there was really a person standing in front of him, dressed in black, with sharp eyes.

"You... who are you?" Xu Yuanyou's tongue tied in shock.

This is in the palace, the palace is heavily guarded, how did this person get in?What is the purpose?
Lin Yanyan showed her waist badge.

Xu Yuanyou saw the words on the waist card clearly, and his pupils constricted involuntarily.

Division of Seven Towns...

Everyone in the officialdom in the Fan Palace has heard of the Seven Towns Division.No one knows where the Seven Towns Division is or who they are. They only know that the Seven Towns Division is directly under the command of His Majesty. From the princes and nobles to the low-level officials, they are all under the supervision of the Seven Towns Division. It can be said that the Seven Towns Division The company is the most mysterious institution in the Dasheng Dynasty.Those who have seen the Secretary of Seven Towns are either dead, or they are tight-lipped, and they would rather die than confide a word.

But why did Secretary Qizhen come to him?Xu Yuanyou suddenly thought of that incident, maybe he came here for it, and suddenly broke out in cold sweat, wondering whether it was a blessing or a curse in his heart.

The horror and anxiety in Xu Zhifeng's eyes fell into Lin Yanyan's eyes.

"You don't need to panic. I came to see you today because I have something to understand with you."

Xu Yuanyou looked around, he was the only one in the imperial pharmacy tonight, and it was some distance away from the main courtyard of the Tai Hospital. Of course, if he shouted loudly, he would be able to alert the guards of the Tai Hospital, but the other party was a member of the Seventh Town Division. If you come to the door, you can't hide.

Xu Yuanyou straightened his mind: "Excuse me, my lord."

"In July of the fourth year of Tianbao, you went to the Imperial Mausoleum to find Eunuch Cui, the former head of the Imperial Pharmacy. Is there such a thing?"

Xu Yuanyou was secretly startled, he really came here for this matter, he was already so careful.

"Yes." Xu Yuanyou didn't deny it, and it's useless to deny it. The lord even said the time so clearly, he must have investigated it.

"From then on, you go to worship Eunuch Cui every Qingming Festival, is there such a thing?"

"Yes."

"In the first month of the third year of Tianbao, the empress passed away. The conclusion given at that time was that the imperial doctor Tao of the imperial hospital misdiagnosed her and delayed her treatment. As a result, the empress suffered misfortune. Eunuch Cui, who was the head of the imperial pharmacy, was also implicated and was punished to guard the empress. Mausoleum, all the cronies around Eunuch Cui have been cleaned up, Eunuch Tao is in power, why did Xu Zhifeng visit Eunuch Cui in the second year after the incident, knowing that Eunuch Cui is dead, and still go to worship every year?"

Xu Yuanyou couldn't judge what the purpose of this lord was for a moment, was he trying to silence him or overturn the old case?
Lin Yanyan saw his doubts, and said seriously: "You should know that the representative of Seven Towns is His Majesty, and His Majesty has always had doubts about the Queen's death. Xu Zhifeng, I hope you don't take chances and say everything you know. , I can guarantee you no worries, if there is even a little concealment, you don't want your whole family to die without a place to be buried by you!"

Xu Yuanyou thumped and knelt down in fright: "My lord, the little family has nothing to do with this matter, I hope my lord will not implicate the innocent..."

Lin Yanyan said coldly: "It's about the death of the empress, if you know about it and don't report it, you will be punished with the same crime as your accomplices, and you should be implicated in the nine clans. How can your family be innocent?"

Wasn't the Tao family implicated in the nine clans back then?
Of the 59 members of the Tao family, 59 heads fell to the ground. Didn't they die unjustly?
"If you can provide useful clues and help the Seven Towns to find the real culprit, you will not only have no faults but also merits, Xu Zhifeng, your own life and the lives of your family are now in your hands, and you can make up your own mind .”

Xu Yuanyou was dejected, he had kept it a secret for so many years, he was suffering from the torment of his conscience every day, and he was afraid that those people would find him and bring disaster to his whole family, so he was in constant panic.

After all, I couldn't hide it today.

"My lord, the little one is guilty of ten thousand deaths and cannot be redeemed, but I beg the lord to spare the young and the whole family. The little one is grateful, and I will repay you in the next life." Xu Yuanyou burst into tears.

Lin Yanyan couldn't calm down, she found the right person, and the truth was right in front of her eyes.

"As long as what you say is true, I will keep your family safe." Lin Yanyan promised.

Xu Yuanyou sorted out his emotions and began to narrate.

"After the death of the empress, the royal pharmacy was also investigated, but nothing was found. Eunuch Cui was removed from the post of manager and fined to guard the imperial tomb. Eunuch Tao, who had not been reused, replaced Cui Eunuch has become the new head of the imperial pharmacy. The younger one is not Eunuch Cui’s confidant and has not been implicated, but Eunuch Cui is kind to the younger one, but others don’t know about it.”

"The little mother is sick in bed all year round, and taking medicine every year is a huge expense. It is difficult for the little one to support the family with such a meager salary. How can I afford this huge expense? But the little one can't just watch. My mother passed away because she couldn’t cure her illness, so the young one got distracted and stole the medicinal materials from the imperial pharmacy, but was discovered by Eunuch Cui. The matter was concealed, and a sum of money was given to the little one to see the doctor for the mother. For the little one, Cui Gonggong has saved his life."

"After Eunuch Cui left, the younger one discovered that the number of kansui in the medicine cabinet was wrong. The younger one clearly remembered that there were three or two kansui recorded in the account book, but there was not much kansui left in the medicine cabinet. The younger one went to look for it. The account book, but found that the account book shows Gansui Erliang. It is impossible for the small one to remember it wrongly, and the small one has always had a good memory and has a photographic memory."

Hearing this, Lin Yanyan already knew the reason. In the prescription her father prescribed to the Empress, there was licorice, and the Eighteen Anti-Arguments said: licorice against kansui, euphorbia, seaweed, and daphne.If the amount of licorice in one dose is equal to or greater than that of kansui, the toxicity will be greatly increased.

Xu Yuanyou continued: "My little one checked the dispensing records during that period, and the kansui used only added up to [-] qian. Even if there was a slight discrepancy when Zhifeng took the medicine, it is impossible for the difference to be so big. Someone must have used kansui. It was in another place, and the account book was revised. The little one couldn't help but think of the empress's prescription, which contains licorice. If Gansui was added to it, the empress would have a cold body... But the little one was sure about the account book It is the previous account books, which have not been changed or copied, and Lu Zhifeng, who is in charge of recording the account books, has become Director Tao's confidant and promoted to deputy director. , so I dare not speak out, for fear that I will die without knowing why."
