I practiced medicine in ancient times

Chapter 230 Urgent!

"No one comes to see you for no reason. I come here only because there is something important, and it is a big matter concerning the doctors in your department." Wu Chen kept Cui Shan in suspense, paused, and sipped his tea slowly.

Cui Shan had been in charge of the entire Imperial Hospital for many years and had seen everything. He seemed quite calm. He did not rush to ask what the big thing Wu Chen was talking about was, but quietly waited for Wu Chen to continue speaking.

"The Queen is not feeling well today, so she came to summon me, Doctor Xu and Doctor Bai to see her." Wu Chen put down the teacup, smiled slightly, and there was a deep light flashing in his eyes.

"So, the problem lies with Doctor Xu and Doctor Bai?" Cui Shan asked with an idea in his mind when he heard this.

The Empress has been in poor health since she gave birth to the Fourth Prince, and has become increasingly weak over the years. The imperial doctors from both of their departments have gone to examine the Empress, and it was not the result of some trickery done by the concubines in the harem.

"Yes! The problem lies with them, but it's not their fault.

I hope that after these words enter your ears today, they will not be heard by anyone else.

Today, the Queen Mother asked Doctor Xu and Doctor Bai to check Kunning Palace again. Do you know what they found?" Wu Chen said to Cuishan with a serious expression.

Cui Shan's expression turned serious when he heard this. He knew that Wu Chen was not the kind of person who would easily make things so serious. Since he said so, it meant that this matter must be very serious.

Cui Shan nodded slightly with a solemn expression, indicating that he was ready and waiting for Wu Chen's next words.

“The rouge, incense, and perfume powder used by the Queen contain a lot of seaweed, and the Queen also takes seaweed every two or three days.

The tea we drink every day also contains a lot of licorice, now you know it." Wu Chen's voice was low and powerful, and every word was like a heavy hammer hitting Cuishan's heart.

"What? This is impossible." Cui Shan's face turned pale instantly when he heard this. He could hardly believe his ears.

Licorice and seaweed cannot be used together. The number of people who know this is less than the number of people on one hand.

How could it just happen to appear in the Queen's food, incense and rouge? Someone must have done it on purpose!

Cui Shan's heart was in turmoil, but he tried to stay calm and not let his panic show. He knew very well that in the palace at this moment, every subtle movement and every careless word could become a handle for others to attack him. He had to act carefully and not make the slightest mistake.

If something went wrong today, Cui Shan would not only lose his own life, but his entire family might even be dragged into an irretrievable situation. The doctors in his Miaoshou Clinic and other chains of clinics would also be implicated, and it is not impossible that they would never recover and would decline.

Cui Shan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in his heart. He knew in his heart that this matter was very serious, and if it was not handled properly, it would be a disaster.

"Nothing is impossible? The results of the examination by Doctors Xu and Bai are right in front of us.

There are only a few people who know that those medicinal herbs will produce toxic side effects when in opposition to each other. You'd better investigate carefully to find out who leaked the information.

Also, why did the two founders of Miaoshou and Huichun go their separate ways? The Miaoshou Clinic was split into two clinics. Do you still remember the rules for the two clinics to reconcile and become one in the future? "Wu Chen's heart moved slightly. He had a hunch that the opportunity for the Miaoshou and Huichun clinics to merge into one in the future might be on Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan.

"Of course I remember that, but for now I have to deal with the Queen's matter first.

"Did the Empress say anything after Doctor Xu and Doctor Bai checked the hidden dangers in Kunning Palace?" Cui Shan asked anxiously.

"The Queen didn't say anything, but she will definitely investigate the matter thoroughly.

The Kunning Palace had been examined by many imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital, but they had not found any problems. Now, Doctors Xu and Bai had found something in the Kunning Palace that was harmful to the Empress Dowager, and they had done something that other imperial doctors could not do.

Moreover, the Queen Mother has been taking this harmful substance for many years. This time, Doctor Xu and Doctor Bai will definitely have more weight in the Queen Mother's mind, and will become her confidants in the future.

Before the Empress investigates the matter thoroughly and finds the murderer, you can find the person who leaked that seaweed and licorice cannot be taken together and take him to Kunning Palace for the Empress to deal with. This will redeem your sins." Wu Chen said slowly.

"I know about this matter. Thank you for your reminder. I will definitely reward you handsomely in the future. I will not keep you here today." After Cui Shan knew about the matter, he couldn't wait to deal with it.

Seeing this, Wu Chen also said goodbye and left.

After Wu Chen left, Cui Shan immediately left the palace...

........

Inside Kunning Palace.

"Madam Zhang, have you found out clearly who got these rouge, incense and powder? And who reminded me to drink licorice water that day? Have you found out everything?" The Empress became furious when she found out that her diet and incense, rouge and other things were incompatible with each other, which was the cause of her physical weakness.

She originally thought that her weak body was caused by giving birth to the Fourth Prince, but she didn't expect that despite all her precautions, she would still be tricked.

The Empress was also a little annoyed. She had asked many imperial doctors to examine her palace, but they had not found the cause of the problem over the years. The Empress was immediately annoyed that the imperial doctors in the Imperial Hospital were a bunch of good-for-nothings and were not as good as the two young medical officers.

“The materials for the perfume powder, rouge, incense, etc. were all obtained from the Imperial Hospital. After they were made, they were also checked by the Imperial Hospital’s doctors and no harmful substances were found.

The old slave also interrogated the palace maids who participated in the production of scented powder, rouge and incense, but they all said they knew nothing.

As for the maid who suggested that the Queen drink licorice tea, I also took her away for interrogation, but I didn't get anything useful out of her. All the clues seem to have ended here." Nanny Zhang frowned tightly.

The source of the Empress's weakness was found, but the person who secretly instructed to give the medicine could not be found. This made Nanny Zhang a little anxious. She knew that this matter was very serious and she had to find out the cause to prevent future troubles.

Otherwise, one is in the light and the other is in the dark, and there will probably be many more troubles in the future.

After hearing this, the Queen frowned, and a cold light flashed in her eyes. She knew in her heart that this was definitely not a simple accident, and someone must have secretly manipulated it to frame her. She took a deep breath and tried to calm her anger.
