"Sigh, who asked me to be so outstanding?" Hong Chen said narcissistically.”
Chen Ningxue snorted and rolled her eyes at Hong Chen.
"I heard from my father that the capital has not been peaceful recently. Little errand boy, you don't have much cultivation, so you can't run around, understand?”
Hong Chen thought.
Wasn't Chen Ningxue's father the Courage God Marquis?
Even the Courage God Marquis said that the capital was not peaceful. It seemed like something was going to happen!
"Little Sister Xue, the old servant you mentioned last time, taking care of Chen Changsheng, where does he live?"”
"Are you really looking for him?" Chen Ningxue asked in surprise.”
"Of course, for my new work."”
"He lives in the backyard." Usually, retired servants would stay there.”
"The backyard? I'll go find him!"
"Ah…you're leaving again…"
Chen Ningxue couldn't help but reach out to ask him to stay.
Hong Chen turned around and smiled,"What's wrong? You can't bear to part with me?"”
"I…Hmph! No!"
Chen Ningxue crossed her arms and stomped her feet.
Hong Chen revealed a smile and said," Don't worry. I'll come back after I'm done asking. I won't run around."”
Chen Ningxue glanced at Hong Chen and snorted,""Remember to come back early."
"Miss, Miss, you are too easy to understand, aren't you?”
In the backyard.
It was located behind the residence of the Courage God Marquis.
Basically, most of the servants lived in the backyard.
Hong Chen asked around and found the backyard.
Then, in the rear courtyard, he asked people and found the old servant who had taken care of Chen Changsheng.
"Old grandpa, have you ever taken care of Chen Changsheng before?" Hong Chen asked.”
"Chen Changsheng?"
The old servant trembled in fear and curled up in the corner of the wall, shouting,"It's none of my business, it's none of my business. I don't know anything!”
Hong Chen supported the old servant's shoulders and said,""Don't worry, I have no ill intentions. I just want to know what kind of prescription you concocted for Chen Changsheng.”
The old servant shook his head." I don't know. I don't know. I don't know anything!"”
Hong Chen sighed.
"It seems that this old servant has suffered a huge blow. I still have to prescribe a medicine to calm his nerves and let him drink it.”
Hong Chen had no choice but to make a trip to the pharmacy. According to the medical knowledge that Hua Wu Yao had inherited, he picked up a few herbs, boiled the medicine, and fed it to the old servant.
The old servant gradually calmed down.
Hong Chen asked.
"Grandpa, have you ever taken care of Chen Changsheng?”
Hong Chen asked with an innocent and harmless look.
The old servant nodded with a dull gaze.
Hong Chen was delighted and continued to ask,""Do you still remember the formula for the life-preserving medicine you concocted for Chen Changsheng?”
" Formula…Formula…"
The old servant recited the name of the medicine mechanically.
"Silvermoon Fruit, Fleeceflower Root, Tianshan Snow Ginseng, Ground Deer Seed, Tibetan Blue Flower…"
Hong Chen listened by the side and could not help frowning.
"It's indeed a normal health medicine. There's nothing fishy about it…"
"Is that not the problem?"
"No, no, the system said that he died from poisoning. There must be a problem!”
Hong Chen's brain started working at high speed.
The name of the medicine that the old servant reported went through Hong Chen's mind once more.
Silver Moon Fruit, Fleeceflower Root, Tianshan Snow Ginseng, and so on were all great tonics.
Ground deer seed, navy blue flower, etc. are auxiliary medicines.
Wait…Wait a minute!
"Hidden Viridescent Flower!"
Hong Chen's eyes flashed.
Why did he add navy blue flowers to this prescription?
With the addition of the Hidden Viridescent Flower, the medicinal efficacy of this prescription did not increase or decrease. It was the same as not having it.
However, the Tibetan Blue Flower was not poisonous.
Even if he added the Hidden Viridescent Flower, it wouldn't hurt.
Hong Chen rubbed his chin.
" The Tibetan Blue Flower is not a local medicine of the Great Qian Dynasty. It is a specialty of the remote Western Regions. Many doctors don't even recognize this medicine…"
"Why did you specially add this medicine?”
Hong Chen had the system pull out the information on his hundredth life, Chen Changsheng, and read it carefully.
Reading Chen Changsheng's information for the second time, Hong Chen's eyes lit up.
"Honey! When Chen Changsheng was alive, he liked to drink honey!”
Hong Chen clapped his hands and stood up all at once.
"I know, I know."
Hong Chen paced back and forth in the backyard.
The old servant looked at Hong Chen in a daze, his eyeballs following Hong Chen's movements.
Hong Chen muttered,"There's no problem with the honey, and there's no problem with the navy blue flower."”
"But if the honey and the Tibetan Flower meet, it will produce a trace of poison in the body.”
"This type is extremely unique and cannot normally be expelled.”
"Once it accumulates over time, the poison will erupt and it will be enough to kill someone!!”
"This is why the system said that the cause of death was poisoning.”
Hong Chen gasped.
Who was the one behind this?
What a ruthless person.
Honey and navy blue flowers were extremely slow toxins that were difficult to detect.
However, the effect was also very slow. It required several years of accumulation before it could erupt with fatal effects.
The person who set up this trap must be ruthless and patient enough to do this.
Hong Chen muttered to himself,"Chen Changsheng, ah, Chen Changsheng, just who is this person that is so scheming to kill you?"”
"But at least we know the cause of death. It's only a matter of time before we find the murderer.”
