The Emperor hurried to the Phoenix Feather Palace. Princes Two, Four, Five, Seven, Eight, Nine, Eleven, and Twelve had already arrived. The Empress Dowager was in the main hall, her face unable to hide her anxiety. The Emperor immediately went up and asked,"Mother, how is that girl?"”
" I'm not sure either." The Empress Dowager was so anxious that she could not sit still for a moment." The Imperial Physician has been in there for a long time, but there is no progress at all.”
"Ancestor, don't be anxious." Jiu Ranqing comforted him." Do you remember that Qing 'er brought a descendant of the divine doctor back to the palace? Can you let her treat Ling-er with the imperial physician?”
The Emperor and Empress Dowager couldn't care less. Since it was Jiu Ranqing's request and it was for the good of Jiu Ranling, they naturally agreed. Not long after, Jin Cheng brought Wei Shi over. After Wei Shi bowed to everyone, she pushed open the door and entered the inner room.
For some reason, her face was pale.
"Fourth Brother, will Royal Sister be alright?”Jiu Ranchen tugged at Jiu Ranyou's sleeve and asked in a low voice.
"I don't know." Jiu Ranyou looked in the direction of the inner room in a daze. His usually strong body was actually trembling.
" Eighth brother…" Jiu Ranchen turned to Jiu Ransheng.
Eleven, shut up!" Jiu Ransheng knocked him with his folding fan." That girl has always been blessed by the heavens. She will definitely be fine."”
"Yes." Twelfth Prince Jiu Ranliang answered," Eleventh Brother, don't be anxious.”
" Mother," the Emperor took the opportunity to ask," what happened to the girl?”
"Humph. You really have to interrogate him properly.”The Empress Dowager glanced at Lan Yu who was kneeling on the ground. Her usual gentleness was gone. She knocked the dragon-headed cane in her hand heavily." Lan Yu, don't you think so?”
Lan Yu was already so frightened that tears were streaming down her face. She cried and begged for mercy,"Emperor, Empress Dowager, please spare my life. Little Yu really didn't want to harm the princess!”
Lan Mu brought Concubine Li over and knelt down as soon as she entered the palace,""Emperor, Little Yu is kind-hearted and would never have the idea of framing the emperor's flesh and blood.”
The Emperor stared at Lan Yu without blinking. He did not speak, and his expression was calm as usual. However, his gaze was like a knife, as if he wanted to cut her into pieces.
At this moment, a royal physician pushed open the door to get some herbs, but was quickly stopped by the Emperor.""Zhen asks you, how is the princess?”
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Miss Yu and a few imperial physicians are still treating the Princess. This lowly subject does not dare to make a rash judgment.”
"Why did the princess fall unconscious?”
"Your Majesty," the Imperial Physician cupped his hands,"I have examined the food the Princess consumed before she fell unconscious. I found a medicine called 'Star Darkness Powder' in the lotus seed soup."”
"It's poison indeed!" The Emperor and Empress Dowager's faces instantly darkened. Only Jiu Ranqing seemed to have realized something and raised her head in shock.
"Star Darkness Powder is not poison." The imperial physician shook his head.
"What's that?"
" Yes…" The old imperial physician revealed a trace of hesitation on his face. He looked at Lan Yu for a moment before lowering his eyes." Your Majesty, it's an aphrodisiac."”
"What?!" The Emperor was flabbergasted. He turned around and met Lan Yu's gaze, which was already filled with anger." You actually drugged my son with aphrodisiac?!”
Jiu Ranyou gasped and looked at Lan Yu in disbelief. Lan Yu couldn't have given Jiu Ran Ling an aphrodisiac, the only possibility was that the bowl of lotus seed soup was for him.
As for the Jiuran Plume, it was only eaten by mistake.
Jiu Ranyou clenched his fists and pursed his lips. If he had not gone to court today, Ling-er would have been fine…
Concubine Li and Lan Mu looked at Jiu Ranyou and saw that he had suffered a huge blow. Then, he turned his gaze to Lan Yu. There was no expression on her face that she had been framed. Immediately, their faces turned ashen.
The Empress Dowager asked seriously,"Imperial physician, if it was just an aphrodisiac, Ling-er's life wouldn't be hanging by a thread."”
She was hinting for the imperial physician to answer. The Imperial Physician understood and continued,""Empress Dowager is right. If it was just the Scattering of Stars, it would not be fatal. However, the combination of the Dark Star Powder and the fragrance of the Moon Vine would result in a lethal poison.”
Pausing for a moment, he continued," The Moon Vine Flower is very delicate, but when it blooms, it is extremely beautiful. The fragrance of the flower is also quite rich and fragrant. Some people do cultivate the Moon Vine Flower to admire it. I would like to ask the Fourth Prince, is there a Moon Vine in Mingyou Palace?”
Jiu Ranyou was silent for a long time before answering,""Yes. Lan Yu placed it in my bedroom yesterday."
His one sentence practically confirmed Lan Yu's crime. Everyone's gazes instantly shot towards Lan Yu! However, after Lan Yu heard the imperial physician's words, her eyes widened in disbelief!
Jiu Ranxi saw that Jiu Ranqing had her head lowered, but she couldn't see her reaction. His expression was also unreadable.
Jiu Ransheng and Jiu Ranyu exchanged a look and pulled Jiu Ranchen, who was about to stomp his feet, from both sides. Jiu Ranliang stood there quietly, blinking her large eyes.
