The Legend of Zhen Huan: Entering the Palace to Become the Queen Mother

Chapter 112: Vicious Mind, Unexpected Encounter

Doctor Lin first took the black rhizome wrapped in a handkerchief and looked at it carefully, then put it under his nose and smelled it. Then he took out an extremely sharp knife from the medicine box, cut open the black rhizome and took a closer look. His brows immediately frowned even tighter.

Fu Cha Zhixi looked at Doctor Lin's changing expression and his face became a little uglier.

"Doctor Lin, is there something wrong with this stem?"

Yu Hu couldn't help but ask.

"There are indeed signs of being soaked in drugs."

Doctor Lin explained with a grim expression.

He looked at the pot of spider plant that was growing particularly well, picked a leaf and rubbed it in his hands a few times, but no juice seeped out of the leaf, which looked very strange.

Doctor Lin used a small silver knife to remove a small piece of rhizome from the spider plant. After comparing it with the previous one, he nodded slightly.

Then he knelt down in front of Fucha Zhixi and spoke in a very affirmative tone.

"My lady, this spider plant has been poisoned with a poison called 'Nightmarsh'."

"So, even though the roots of this orchid have turned black, it looks more alive than other normal orchids."

Yu Hu used her little brain before speaking and asked uncertainly.

"That's right. This kind of medicine will make the person who takes it look very healthy, but in fact, all the vitality in the body is consumed. Once the vitality in the body is not enough to supply the consumption, the person who takes the medicine will die on the spot. Even if you check it afterwards, you won't find any problems."

Doctor Lin nodded in agreement and explained.

"So if a pregnant woman like me takes this medicine, it will cause the baby in her belly to die during childbirth."

Fu Cha Zhixi quickly thought of what effect it would have on her.

"If this happens, wouldn't it make everyone think that the queen died of a difficult childbirth, and the emperor and the Fucha family would not be able to find anything wrong even if they wanted to investigate."

Fang Qiu took over the conversation.

"What a vicious mind! He has no intention of leaving our queen a chance to live."

Suqin also said with a very ugly expression.

"But she never expected that I could dodge this move."

Fu Cha Zhixi could not help but clench his palms, staring at the pot of exceptionally beautiful spider plant with cold eyes.

The Queen is the biggest suspect in this matter. After all, everyone who has watched Legend of Zhen Huan knows that the Queen is the leader of the abortion team. As for Concubine Hua, although she is not a good person either, she did not deliberately do anything to Zhen Huan's belly. She basically targeted Zhen Huan herself.

But this cannot clear Hua Fei of suspicion. After all, the situation is different now, and who knows whether Hua Fei will harm her child.

What's more, apart from these two people, are the other concubines easy to get along with?

She's not that stupid yet.

Even the dumbest Concubine Qi could do something like making Zhen Huan kneel down and slap her in the face, not to mention that at the Queen's instigation, she sent Zhen Huan cakes containing oleander juice. This seemingly stupid behavior was actually extremely harmful.

After all, no one could have guessed that someone would dare to do such a thing so blatantly.

As for the others, they are even smarter. If you underestimate them, you will suffer a great loss.

Didn't Zhen Huan suffer a great loss at the hands of the seemingly honest Concubine Jing in the later period because of the affairs between Jingxi and Su Peisheng?

The ultimate secret to living a good life is not to underestimate anyone in this palace. If you think you can do anything just because you have watched TV dramas, you will most likely become an insignificant ghost in the Forbidden City.

"Suqin, go get the remaining medicine residue from yesterday to Doctor Lin."

Fu Cha Zhixi's eyes flashed, he looked at Su Qin and spoke.

"Okay, ma'am, I'll get it right away."

"My lady, I brought it here."

Yuhu suddenly took out the medicine residue wrapped in a handkerchief from her arms and handed it to Doctor Lin as if she was offering a treasure.

When she was serving the Empress last night, after learning about this matter from the Empress, she deliberately asked herself to think carefully about whether she could help the Empress in any way.

When she was keeping watch for the Empress last night, she thought about it seriously all night. Finally, her hard work paid off. After everyone went to bed, she quietly went to the kitchenette and took out some of the remaining medicine residue.

Hearing what the empress said, she quickly took out the medicine residue that she had stolen last night.

"Yuhu, well done."

Fu Cha Zhixi didn't expect that Yu Hu had thought of this in advance. This made her a little surprised, but also a little happy that Yu Hu had finally grown up.

It seems that what I said to her before was not in vain.

"Thank you for the compliment, Madam Queen. I will definitely do better in the future."

Yuhu nodded excitedly and said.

"it is good."

Fucha Zhixi also smiled and looked at Yuhu and said.

Doctor Lin took the medicine residue and examined it carefully for a long time, then took out the prescription he had written and compared it several times, then turned to Fu Cha Zhixi and said.

"The dosage of your medicine has been deliberately changed. Some of the originally small dosages have been increased, which has changed the efficacy of the entire medicine."

"If this prescription had not been written by me, I would not have discovered the trick."

"If your majesty keeps drinking this stuff, in the long run you will become like this spider plant."

"Okay, okay, it was indeed put in the pregnancy-preserving medicine."

"Aunt Fangqiu, I'd like to trouble you and Eunuch Chai to find out who the traitor in our palace is."

Fu Cha Zhixi looked at Fang Qiu with an unpleasant expression and said.

"Please rest assured, Madam. I will personally catch this harmful rat."

Fang Qiu nodded at Fu Cha Zhixi very seriously.

"What a calculated plan, but she didn't expect that I wouldn't take these pregnancy-preserving drugs."

A sneer appeared on Fucha Zhixi's lips.

"Thanks to the Bodhisattva's blessing, the Queen has escaped this disaster."

Suqin clasped her hands together and said this piously.

After she has dealt with this matter in a few days, she will definitely go to Baohua Temple to burn some incense for these Bodhisattvas.

"Doctor Lin, you have been the one making this medicine, how could such a big mistake happen?"

Fu Cha Zhixi stared coldly into Doctor Lin's eyes. Although his tone was not particularly harsh, it was full of intimidation.

"I am guilty. It is true that I have been in charge of the medicine, but I occasionally asked my apprentice to help watch the fire for a while."

Doctor Lin explained with difficulty.

He couldn't believe that this matter would involve his little apprentice. After all, his little apprentice had always been well-behaved and obedient, so how could he do such a thing?

"It was all my negligence that nearly caused Your Majesty to meet with an accident. Please punish me, Your Majesty."
