Conspiracy with you as a doctor girl

Chapter 315
"Almonds?" Li Yuyi was taken aback immediately. He didn't understand why Pei Huizhao mentioned "almonds" aside from so many foods or medicinal materials that were incompatible with chestnuts?
Seeing this situation, Pei Huizhao asked Li Yuyi calmly: "I wonder if Li Yuyi smelled a faint fragrance from Chu Guiren's body?"

"This," Li Yuyi hesitated to speak, but after thinking for a moment, she nodded. Before that, she felt that the fragrance was very strange, as if she wanted to grab people's hearts, but because she was ordered by the queen to save people, so he He didn't think too much about it, now that Pei Huizhao heard it suddenly, Li Yuyi couldn't help being surprised, then he looked at Pei Huizhao and asked, "Your honor means——"

The next conclusion Li Yuyi didn't dare to say anymore, because he knew very well that the court battles killed people without blood, and he didn't want to be involved, but he was not allowed to back down in the slightest, only to hear that Ning Yunshang on the high platform was obviously impatient, and sternly Asked: "Has Li Yu finished answering Huigui's words?"

"Yes," Li Yuyi agreed anxiously, secretly thinking about the next countermeasures. In his opinion, what Pei Huizhao said was based on facts, and he couldn't allow him to hide it. It's just that he didn't know about the concubines. background, and he didn't want to be involved in it, so he couldn't come to that conclusion.

At this moment, Ning Yunshang looked at Pei Huizhao and said without a word: "I have already asked you to ask Li Yuyi. I wonder if Mr. Hui still insists that you did not poison Mr. Chu?"

"Yes," Pei Huizhao replied very positively, and then looked at Ning Yunshang on the high platform. When he saw the faint doubts in the eyes of the other party, Pei Huizhao knew that he finally had the opportunity to express his inner judgment.

Sure enough, Ning Yunshang said "Oh", followed by a question, "Why is Huigui so sure?" At this time, everyone present also looked at Pei Huizhao, because they also felt that what Chu Guiren said just now made sense .

Pei Huizhao said confidently: "Generally speaking, people with food poisoning will turn pale, but Chu Guiren has a ruddy complexion, which means that Chu Guiren is not suffering from food poisoning."

"What?" Everyone couldn't help being surprised. They didn't expect that Pei Huizhao would deny Li Yuyi's conclusion after all he said. This seems a bit too unbelievable?

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Li Yuyi, only to find that he was standing beside Pei Huizhao, with his head slightly lowered, as if he hadn't heard Pei Huizhao's words, so everyone looked at Ning Yunshang suspiciously.

At this time, Ning Yunshang listened to Pei Huizhao's words and observed Li Yuyi's reaction. When he realized that what Pei Huizhao said was probably correct, Ning Yunshang asked Pei Huizhao calmly: "Hui Huizhao Why do you think Chu Guiren has the discomfort just now?"

"Return to the empress's words," Pei Huizhao said unhurriedly, "In addition to venison, there are other ingredients that are compatible with chestnuts, such as almonds. It is recorded in medical books that chestnuts and venison will cause vomiting , abdominal pain, taking almonds, especially almond oil together, will cause fainting, and Chu Guiren's situation just now is almost fainting."

"How is this possible?" After hearing Pei Huizhao's words, the other concubines couldn't help discussing, they didn't expect that a small chestnut would cause such a serious situation.

Then another concubine said in a low voice: "Generally, no one in the palace uses almonds. Everyone knows that if they are not eaten properly, they will poison people to death."

"That's right," a concubine next to her echoed, "If you can't even use almonds, then don't mention almond oil. To be honest, I haven't seen food made with almond oil."

"I haven't seen it either," said a concubine sitting next to her with a puzzled look on her face. "Mr. Huigui can even think of such an unbelievable thing. Is she just trying to quibble?"

It's just that not everyone thinks what these concubines think—that Pei Huizhao is making excuses. This includes Concubine Shu Zhang Ruomei, who has never said a word except to congratulate the empress. After hearing Pei Huizhao's words, she calmly sized up the woman not far away, and an imperceptible smile flashed in her eyes. Then, Zhang Ruomei turned her gaze to Ning Yunshang on the high platform. She thought of the words in Pei Huizhao's words Meaning, Ning Yunshang should know.

Sure enough, Ning Yunshang's face darkened, and then she looked at Concubine Xian. Ning Yunshang knew very well that something contained almond oil, but she couldn't figure out how Chu Xianglian got that thing?
Instinctively, Ning Yunshang thought of her aunt, Concubine Ning. It was Ning Muyun who brought that thing into the palace back then, but the strange thing is that since then, there has been no such thing in the palace, so When Mrs. Ning told Ning Yunshang about that thing before, Ning Yunshang didn't take it seriously at first. It wasn't until Pei Huizhao mentioned it that Ning Yunshang realized that many things had happened under her nose.

But the current situation is obviously not the time to be emotional, Ning Yunshang pondered for a moment, and asked Pei Huizhao pretending not to know: "Mr. Huigui means that Mr. Chugui has the discomfort just now because almond oil and chestnut are mutually restrained?"

"Yes," Pei Huizhao nodded, and continued, "Almond oil is almost not used in general dishes, but people will add some almond oil to certain spice powders to mix different spices or create a unique fragrance."

"What does Huigui mean?" Ning Yunshang asked Pei Huizhao with a low tone, staring blankly.

Up until now, Pei Huizhao couldn't help being hesitant. Although he had convinced Ning Yunshang that Chu Guiren's poisoning was not caused by taking chestnuts and venison together, the only way to completely remove her suspicion was to announce the truth to the public. Therefore, Pei Huizhao slowed down. Slowly raised her head, looked towards the high platform, and then said loudly: "The concubine just smelled a faint fragrance from Chu Guiren's body, and felt a burst of warmth. I wonder if there is almond oil in this fragrance powder?"
