Chapter 524: Sudden Death
"Since Concubine Shu doesn't like me, if you don't go back first, I will definitely take good care of the emperor." Concubine Yan covered her lips and said softly.
Jiang Yuming turned to look at Yanbi: "This is the Qinghuan Palace of my palace."
Yanbi coughed lightly and sat aside without speaking.
Meng Chengye was looking at the information in his hand. After a while, Yang Fu hurried over and said that an accompanying imperial doctor had been poisoned and died suddenly on the spot.
Meng Chengye frowned: "What's going on?"
Too many people have died in the palace in the past two days.
Yang Fu leaned over and whispered a few words in Meng Chengye's ear, and Meng Chengye said: "Go and bring another imperial doctor over."
Yang Fu agreed and went down.
Meng Chengye held his head and sighed. Not long after Yang Fu left, Concubine Liu Guifei came over.
"Hey, why are Yanbi here? I heard that many people have died in your palace in the past few days." After sitting down, Concubine Liu glanced at Yanbi and snorted.
"The lesson taught by the imperial concubine is that there is nothing I can do about it. If I am favored, there will always be traitors who want to harm me." Yanbi sighed, seemingly helpless.
Concubine Liu sneered: "So what if I get favored again? If you are not strict with me, you may die at the hands of a slave one day."
Just as Yan Bin was about to say something else, Meng Chengye interrupted: "Okay, let's stop arguing. There are other things to deal with right now."
Concubine Liu snorted, and Concubine Yan responded and stopped talking.
Yang Fu was quick on his feet and soon brought the imperial doctor over.
The imperial doctor knelt on the ground to say goodbye and then told what he had seen this morning.
When the imperial physician got up in the morning to go on duty, he thought that the other imperial physician had not yet gotten up from his sleep, so he went to wash himself. After washing, he came back to call for help and found that the other colleague had died at some point.
Meng Chengye pondered for a while and said, "What did you eat last night?"
The imperial doctor pondered for a while and replied: "Back to the emperor, Wei Chen had a bowl of soothing soup to drink last night, but the imperial doctor Zhou said that he also had some insomnia, so he drank Wei Chen's bowl of soothing soup, but Wei Chen's soothing soup was three times
Drink once every four days.
In addition, Wei Chen and Zhou Taiyi had dinner last night and haven't eaten anything since."
Meng Chengye suddenly remembered something. He was recently checking who asked about the function of hibiscus flowers the year before last. Could it be that the person behind the scenes knew about this and wanted to kill the imperial doctor who knew about it?
"Do you know the hibiscus flower?" Meng Chengye suddenly said.
The imperial doctor below was stunned for a while and then said: "Of course I know Wei Chen."
"Did anyone ask you about the hibiscus flowers the year before last?" Meng Chengye asked.
The imperial doctor below meditated for a while, and then said with some hesitation: "The year before last, in the palace, Wei Chen saw poppies on the table of Empress Yuan Bin when he was asking for Ping'an pulse. Wei Chen happened to know this flower, so he went with her.
Concubine Yuan said that one of them is great, but the others are gone."
Meng Chengye turned to look at Yang Fu who was standing aside. Yang Fu understood and retreated, heading straight towards Yuan Bin's residence.
"Your Majesty, what is aphrodisiac?" Yanbi asked curiously.
Meng Chengye held his chin and said perfunctorily: "A kind of flower."
Yanbi smiled awkwardly and stopped talking while holding the tea.
Concubine Liu Guifei and Jiang Yuming were discussing in a low voice the hibiscus flower Meng Chengye mentioned, which is also called poppy.
