Emperor Ming Yuan and Prince Rui stepped forward to take a look. Among them was a medicine with a vermilion-red center, while the other one was light yellow and light black in color.
"The two pills are different? What's going on?" Prince Rui asked the doctor.
The imperial doctor was confused, "This is impossible. This medicine was refined in one furnace. How can it have different colors?"
"Then please ask the imperial doctor to examine it and see which one is poisonous." Yuan Qing Ling said.
The imperial doctor pointed to the scarlet heart and said, "It wasn't originally this color. Why is the heart so red in the middle?"
He broke some medicine into a cup, poured water on it, and inserted a silver needle. The whole silver needle was black, which showed how toxic it was.
"Your Majesty!" The imperial doctor knelt down with a pop, his lips trembling, "This is absolutely impossible. Someone has changed the medicine. The medicines given by the hospital are all non-toxic and have been tested."
Emperor Ming Yuan's eyes were cold, "Here comes someone, seal the Imperial Hospital, and check carefully!"
The guards took the order and came out.
Prince Rui looked at Yuan Qingling, "How do you know the medicine is different?"
Yuan Qingling explained: "One medicine is missing, which means someone took one away. Why was it taken away? Obviously there was something wrong with the medicine that was taken away, and Eunuch Chang said that the medicine had been taken away when it was last administered.
If it falls on the ground, then the order may be messed up. The pill that was taken away is non-toxic, but the pill that should have been taken away is still here."
"Your analysis is right!" Prince Rui's eyes were also filled with coldness, "Someone dares to poison the Supreme Emperor. It's really a life-threatening situation."
Emperor Ming Yuan turned his anger on the imperial doctor. Yuan Qingling hesitated for a moment and said: "Father, I'm afraid the problem may not be with the imperial hospital."
Emperor Ming Yuan looked at her, "What should I say?"
Yuan Qing Ling said: "There are three pills in this pill. If you want to take away the poisonous pill, you only need to replace it with one pill. This will not arouse any suspicion. But this person can no longer take out another Nine Turns Pill.
The Nine-Revolution Pill was refined by imperial doctors, so the imperial hospital can definitely get more Nine-Revolution Pills, so the missing one will not cause suspicion."
Emperor Ming Yuan nodded, "That makes sense."
Yuan Qingling continued: "There are three ways for the murderer to obtain the medicine. One is from the Queen Mother's office, one is from the Supreme Emperor's office, and the other is from Tai Hospital. According to the analysis just now, Tai Hospital can already rule it out, because since the other party can get it from
If you get the medicine from the Imperial Hospital, you can get one more pill. In the same way, the Queen Mother can also rule out that the murderer directly took the Emperor's medicine and brewed it into poison. Because the medicine has a certain amount, after the Emperor was poisoned, the murderer must take it away immediately.
The poisonous medicine remains.”
Prince Rui was puzzled, "Why did this person take an extra poisonous pill? Ordinarily, one pill would have already poisoned the Emperor."
Yuan Qing Ling said: "If poison is used in a hurry, the dosage cannot be accurately controlled. Therefore, this second pill is a spare. If one pill is not enough, plus the next day's pill, there is complete certainty that the Emperor will be poisoned."
"
"How come your head spins so fast?" Prince Rui admired.
The imperial doctor breathed a sigh of relief. The princess' words had already defended Taiyuan, and Taiyuan was not suspicious.
Mr. Chang said fairly: "But these medicines are only accessible to our family and Grandma Xi, and no one else has access to them."
Grandma Xi came down to bless her body and said, "That's true."
Emperor Ming Yuan had absolute trust in Eunuch Chang and Aunt Xi. They had served the Supreme Emperor for many years. They were very loyal and would never harm the Supreme Emperor.
"How many people can enter the palace to serve?" Emperor Ming Yuan asked Eunuch Chang.
"Back to the Emperor, there are three people, all of whom were promoted by the Supreme Emperor himself."
"Come here, I want to ask questions!" Emperor Ming Yuan's eyes flashed sharply.
"Yes!" Eunuch Chang said and went out.
The person who serves in the palace is Xiao Quanzi, who is mainly responsible for walking the dog and taking Fu Bao in and out of the palace.
