C21 Overdose

Very quickly, kitchen's medicine people, fire people, furnaces, and even servants were all brought in, a row of them kneeling down in the hall.

Xiao Yixiu sat with his head supported up against the pale face, the Madame Jia carefully supported him from the side, and asked in a low voice from time to time.

Luo Yun shouted, "Who picked up the medicine today?"

Someone immediately stepped forward, "This lowly one is He Ji."

Luo Yun asked a few more questions, and each person got their instructions. It could be seen that when they were frying the medicine, there were a total of five people in kitchen, so it was impossible to do anything under the eyes of the other four.

"Speaking of which, Miss Li Yue also did not say anything about the problem with the pill." Luo Yun turned and asked Gu Qingli.

"There's an overdose of ox yellow in this medicine." It was really strange. He had thought last night that he would drug Xiao Yixiu to make him feel better, but in the end, it had not even been implemented.

Gu Qingli was also confused, but this Niu Huang, on the other hand, would not die. She knew that it would be no big deal once she checked his pulse, but his body was weaker than an ordinary person's after all.

"How is this possible?" Luo Yun looked at the four people kneeling down in shock.

The man who picked up the medicine started to kowtow, "This little one is innocent and this little one also understands medicine, how can I not know how important the quantity of the medicine is? Isn't Miss Lo watching all of this from the side? "

Following which, everyone else expressed that this was indeed the case.

"Miss Li Yue, with so many people as witnesses, that medicine will definitely not be a problem, unless your prescription ?" The strange light in Luo Yun's eyes made him realize that this girl was playing the role of a demon again.

Last time, he hadn't had enough. How many days had it been since then? Gu Qingli suddenly remembered that he had been learning acupuncture and moxibustion with her for a while and had restrained himself. Could it be that he felt that he had mastered enough acupuncture and could replace her?

"This king believes that Miss Li Yue's prescription will not have any problems." That month when the medicine was being tested, she had endured the pain. Wasn't it to test the medicine so that he would experience less pain and lessen the side effects of the medicine?

Gu Qingli also felt that it was a little unexpected for him to trust her so completely, so she couldn't help but take another look at him and see that his gaze was fixated on Madame Jia.

With this look, Luo Yun's gaze turned towards the Madame Jia as well.

"Oh right, there's another person who has touched this bowl of medicine!" He Ji suddenly pointed at the Madame Jia. "The Madame Jia came over to bring the medicine, and the servants said that it was done by the servants, but she insisted on bringing it to the Prince herself ?"

"For such a long distance to travel from the kitchen to the Duke's room, only the Madame Jia is by himself?"

Madame Jia's expression changed slightly. Only then did he realize that he had become the target of public criticism. He immediately turned to Xiao Yixiu and said, "My prince, I don't even know what kind of medicine Niu Huang is, how could I do such a thing?"

Xiao Yixiu merely looked at her coldly, but Luo Yun said: "Madame Jia doesn't know about medicinal properties, so aren't you the one who said all this? In the past, only the Madam herself knows what you have learned and understood in the Assistant Minister Palace. "

So this pit was dug for Madame Jia to jump into. This Luo Yun was really restless.

Gu Qingli then calmly sat down and listened to Luo Yun's interrogation.

"My prince, I have been wronged!" Madame Jia's eyes were filled with tears, "I am already a man of the Prince, why would I do such a thing that would harm the Prince?"

Xiao Yixiu's eyes became even colder.

Gu Qingli saw it clearly. He had his own prejudices against the person sent over by Imperial Conscubine Lan, and Luo Yun was good at acting gentle and cute in front of him.

"Prince ?"

Other than you, there might not be anyone else. If you were to be alone, it would not be suspicious, but the five of us will still be looking at each other in the kitchen. Luo Yun quietly glanced at Xiao Yixiu and judged his expression. Seeing that his face was cold, he became even more bold.

"I've been treating His Highness's illness for two years and I've never made a single mistake. Your Highness, is it?"

Xiao Yixiu slowly nodded.

Luo Yun then pointed at the four people who were kneeling down: "These four people are also family members who have been serving in the Palace all year round. I have always watched them do things and have never made any mistakes, only you, Madam, have just entered the Palace a few days ago ?"

"Your Highness, it was Imperial Conscubine Lan that made me serve you. Could it be that she will send someone to harm you?" Madame Jia's eyes were filled with grief, looking completely innocent.

Hearing her mention the Imperial Conscubine Lan, Gu Qingli immediately thought of the jade bracelet that had been thrown away, and knew it was going to be disastrous.

Sure enough, Xiao Yixiu threw her hand away and said: "Will mother concubine guarantee your luck?"

"This concubine ?"

"You're a new member of the Palace, yet you dare to cause trouble in the dark. Who knows what kind of intentions you have? Someone come, drag Madame Jia down with you ? "

Gu Qingli kept staring at Xiao Yixiu's eyes. Even though he was sweating profusely and was frowning while enduring the pain, his eyes did not change at all.

Luo Yun dug a hole for Madame Jia to jump into, while Xiao Yixiu took this opportunity to push her a little. From start to finish, she did not want Madame Jia to enter into the Duke Palaces!

Hmph, she just didn't allow these two people to do as they pleased!

Thinking up to here, Gu Qingli suddenly smiled: "My prince, can you allow me to say a few words?"

Xiao Yixiu looked at her.

"Actually, I have never tasted if this ox was too excessive. It is just that I can tell that it is too much from the symptoms on the prince's body." "Now that I've finished that bowl of medicine, I can't even count the amount of it with just this little bit of dregs."

She picked up the empty medicine bowl and sniffed it, then sighed and shook her head: "Miss Lo also knows medicine, can you tell how much is being used from the leftover medicinal dregs?"

Luo Yun's face froze. It would have taken decades of experience to judge the quantity of the medicine just by smelling it, so of course she wouldn't be able to do that. What's more, he had already drunk up the entire pill, leaving behind only a small amount of dregs at the bottom of the bowl.

"As for the fact that the Miss Lo determined that there is a problem with the Madame Jia, it was only based on a single sentence from me. But I also thought about it, if it was really caused by Niu Huang, then this small amount would not be able to threaten the life of the Duke. If Madame Jia wanted to harm the Duke, it would definitely be fatal.

"Madame Jia is going to enter the palace in two days, she really doesn't have any reason to do this kind of thing to anger the Prince. Could it be that she wants to end with him punishing her and chasing her out of the palace?"

Luo Yun could not help but ask: "After speaking for half a day, what does Miss Li Yue mean by that?"

"The amount of bezoar must not exceed three days. Today is the second day, so if it was a normal person, they would have been fine, but since the prince's body is weak, he might not be able to bear it, which is why there seems to be an overdose of drugs."

In an instant, the three people inside the room turned their gazes toward her in unison, revealing expressions of disbelief.

Luo Yun and Xiao Yixiu couldn't understand why she said those words back then. Madame Jia couldn't understand why she saved him.

Luo Yun was secretly resentful in her heart. Previously, because the Madame Jia had entered her residence, she was unable to sleep or eat at all, and her hostility towards that woman surpassed Li Yue's. In the end, Li Yue only stole her contribution to treat her illness.

Xiao Yixiu did not expect that this great opportunity would disappear like that, the expression in his eyes fluctuated, and he looked at Gu Qingli with mixed feelings.

Surprisingly, he was not as furious as he was when he was dealing with Princess Hua-Yang. He only gave a light grunt, "Miss Li Yue's medical skills are superb, her words make sense."

Madame Jia saw that he had let go of his will, and immediately turned and kowtowed to Gu Qingli, "Thank you Miss Li Yue for releasing me! I can't thank you enough. "

"You get up first." However, Madame Jia still knelt down and held onto Xiao Yixiu's knee: "I know that I cannot defend myself, but I am willing to use my life to prove my innocence. If you do not believe me, I will kneel down and not get up."

"Alright, alright, This King will believe you first." Since he couldn't touch her, Xiao Yixiu's tone became gentler, "This king is feeling extremely uncomfortable right now. You guys can leave first."

Luo Yun was furious and angry at the same time. She secretly clenched her teeth and retreated, while the Madame Jia followed her out the door.
