Chapter 253: 253

Chapter 253

This accident arising from many causes saved Duan Wang Fei’s life! Otherwise, Duan Wang Fei might have gone underground, and she doesn’t even know how she died.

Duan Wangye was still a little doubtful and repeatedly confirmed again and again.

“Is this Jiuhe incense really poisonous?”

If an ordinary official questioned the imperial physicians’ judgment like this, Imperial Physician Liu Fang might have turned his back on him. However, Duan Wangye was the emperor’s uncle with noble status so Imperial Physician Liu Fang wanted to show some face and nodded.

“This Physician is sure.”

Duan Wangye took two deep breaths and asked again anxiously, “Imperial physician Liu, how is wangfei?”

“Allow this physician to check on wangfei’s pulse again.”

So, Imperial Physician Liu Fang checked Duan Wang Fei’s pulse again, and this time, it took longer.

Contrary to the defining silence, a burst of fireworks outside the lounge could be heard. The sound seemed to be far away which made the surroundings quieter.

After a while, Imperial Physician Liu Fang finally stopped and reported again.

“Wangfei must have been using the Jiuhe incense for several months now since her foundation is already weak. It will take some time to recuperate.”

Duan Wangye asked a little impatiently, “What kind of Chifeng Grass that has no antidote or cure?”

Imperial Physician Liu Fang: “Wangye, there is no medicine to cure this poison. People who are poisoned can only be nursed back to health slowly.”

Truth was, Duan Wang Fei was fortunate to be able to discover the problem earlier, her health could still be saved. If she waits until her body feels like a thousand ants hollowed her flesh from the inside, she would have no choice but to wait for her death.

With furrowed eyebrows, Duan Wangye was unable to hide his worry and couldn’t help scolding the servants who were around him.

“I told you not to let wangfei use things of unknown origin, look, wangfei has suffered for nothing!”

Wang momo courtesied and said, “Wangye, this Jiuhe incense was given by the heir’s consort!”

Duan Wangye was stunned for a moment and then scolded: “Nonsense!”

Duan Wangye’s complexion became even uglier and colder like frozen water, thinking how could this unruly slave dare to randomly accuse the heir’s consort!

Wang momo then said, “Wangye, this maidservant is not lying, this Jiuhe incense is really given by the heir’s consort!”

Duan Wang Fei leaned back on the back of the Taishi chair* with her eyes half drooping and said nothing. But since she didn’t contradict Wang momo, it was the same as telling them she agreed with her.

(*only chair named after an official position in Chinese furniture)

Qin Jiu on the side pursed her lips. The last time, she heard Duan Wang Fei talk about the origin of Jiuhe Incense she said she got it from a monk.

But now that Wang momo dares to bring out the heir’s consort, Gu Zezhi must have found something these days.

Qin Jiu glanced and took a look at Gu Zezhi, he was standing by the window with his hands behind his back. The light of the fireworks outside put shadows on his face but his eyes were surprisingly bright.

Duan Wangye still did not believe it and did not bother to talk more with Wang momo, he turned his head to advise Duan Wang Fei, “Wang Fei, even if you do not like the heir’s consort, you shouldn’t blame this on her.”

“Bang!”

Outside, another large firework exploded in the night sky, illuminating the face of Duan Wang Fei, looking miserably white as paper, with eyes as deep as a pool.

Qin Jiu: “…”

This Duan Wangye’s biasedness is too obvious.

Not only do Qin Jiu think so, but Imperial Physician Liu Fang and two other imperial physicians also think so, all of them were silent, and just pretend that they hadn’t heard anything. Ai, the less they know about the secret in the rear courtyard, the better.

Suddenly, Gu Zezhi, who had been silent for a long time, said, “Imperial physician Liu, please write a prescription for my mother first.”

Gu Zezhi’s handsome face was calm with no emotion could be seen, and even his tone was still gentle.

Imperial Physician Liu Fang felt as if she was granted amnesty, and thought that the third son of Duan Wangye was really good-tempered. He hurriedly said, “Please wait a moment, Third Master Gu I will write a prescription now.”

Imperial Physician Liu Fang took the two imperial doctors to discuss the prescription, and ask a servant girl to hurry to prepare the pen and ink.

Zhou Xin took on all the scenes he had just seen because it was a household affair of the Duan Palace, it was inconvenient for him to say anything, so he never interrupted from beginning to end.

Seeing that the matter was over, Zhou Xin flung his horsetail whisk and planned to leave.

“Please stay, Eunuch Zhou.” When Duan Wangye saw that Zhou Xin was leaving, he hurriedly called out to the other party.

Zhou Xin smiled and cupped his hand at Duan Wangye, saying, “Wangye, the Emperor is worried about Duan Wang Fei’s condition, so this servant has to go back to report.”

Duan Wangye looked a little embarrassed, cleared his throat again, and said in a stern voice.

“Eunuch Zhou, this matter has not been investigated yet…”

His intention was to ask Zhou Xin to come to the emperor and not talk nonsense.

Zhou Xin shook off the horsetail whisk again, with a smile still plastered on his fair face. He said, “Wangye, this slave will only report the truth. The emperor is wise and knows what’s the best verdict.”

After saying that, he did not care what was Duan Wangye’s reaction was and just turned around and walked away.

Duan Wangye: “…”

Looking at Zhou Xin’s back as he left, Duan Wangye’s face sank deeper, and his heart was in some turmoil.

He glanced at Wang momo with displeasure and blamed her for talking nonsense just now.

The heir’s consort has been married to their family for so many years. She has always been a virtuous person, and she respects the wangfei very much, so how could she do such a thing!

Even if Wang momo had doubts about the heir’s consort, she could have just said this after they go back to the mansion but she really had to talk in front of Zhou Xin and outsiders, which caused unnecessary troubles.

This matter was originally very simple. After they returned to the mansion, they would carefully interrogate everyone, and they would certainly be able to find out the details of the matter, so why bother and make trouble in front of the emperor!

To say the least, even if the incense was really from the heir’s consort, then she must have been used by someone, and the person behind this must be found out first, right?

Duan Wangye was upset and inevitably got angry. He turned to Duan Wang Fei and said, “Wangfei, you should take good care of your servants!”

Duan Wang Fei: “….”

Although Duan Wang Fei didn’t say a word, Qin Jiu was right beside her and could clearly feel her body tightening up.
