Yun Shang turned to Luo Qingyan and said, "Here they are."
Luo Qingyan nodded and asked the servant, "What happened?"
"Their Former Majesties are both poisoned and unconscious."
Yun Shang grabbed Luo Qingyan's sleeve and suggested, "Let's go and have a look. We'll talk on the way."
Luo Qingyan responded and left the Taiji Palace with Yun Shang.
"After lunch, their former majesties went to bed for a nap. Usually her former majesty would sleep for about an hour and then the servant would wake her up. Today, however, they couldn't. The servants panicked and called for an imperial physician. After diagnosis, the imperial physician said that their former majesties were most likely poisoned, " the servant reported.
Yun Shang nodded, "What poison is it? Have you checked carefully what their former majesties have eaten? "
The servant shook his head and replied, "The imperial physician said that he didn't know what poison it was. He just felt that the symptoms of the poison were a little strange and rare.
The imperial physician has also checked carefully with silver needles and bracelets what their former majesties have eaten, but found nothing."
Nothing to be found?
Yun Shang pursed her lips and said to Luo Qingyan, "In the palace, most of the food and clothing will be tested with silver needles, but no one will be so stupid to use the poison that will be tested out easily. Most of the poison will be used with something that doesn't seem to be special and has no harm. They will be scattered in several places, and will be poisonous when combining together."
Luo Qingyan nodded, "Let's go and see what's going on first."
When Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan arrived, there were already two or three imperial physicians in the hall. They bowed to them two in a hurry.
"How about their former majesties now?" asked Luo Qingyan.
The imperial physicians bowed and reported, "Your Majesty, the poison of their former majesties is really strange. We have checked it carefully. Their former majesties' pulse is faintly discernible, and their meridians are disordered. Their breathing, however, is very stable, and their heartbeat is normal..."
Yun Shang frowned, "Normal heartbeat? But their pulse is faintly discernible? Their meridians are disordered? "
"Yes, your majesty." The imperial physician nodded, "But I feel these symptoms are really inconceivable. I have searched all kinds of medical books about rare poisons with my colleagues in the Imperial Hospital just now, but we haven't found any records of this kind of poison. "
Yun Shang walked to the bedside, sat down, checked Hua Ling's pulse, and then looked through the eyes, ears, mouths and noses of them two.
The imperial physicians all fixed their eyes on Yun Shang, "Your majesty is far sighted and knowledgeable. Can you see the poison?"
Yun Shang shook her head, "I don't know either."
Then she turned around and replied, "You must have recorded what their former majesties had eaten today. Let me have a see the list."
An imperial physician quickly took out a record book and handed it to Yun Shang.
Yun Shang took it and read it carefully for a while, "Where are these things?"
"They are all placed in the outer hall. We have asked the servants to find all the things and let them not move them without permission."
Yun Shang nodded and went to the outer hall with the imperial physicians.
Yun Shang pursed her lips and said, "It's not that difficult. Since they have the confidence to come for the post, we just let them one by one contact everything that their former majesties have ever experienced. After they get poisoned, we will feed them with the antidote they provide. If the antidote works, we will just give it to their former majesties. "
The imperial physicians in the hall looked at each other and then said, "Your majesty, this is a brilliant tactic."
However, still some people were a little worried, "But if the news of their former majesties being poisoned is spread out, will the people of the State of Xia be panic?"
Luo Qingyan raised his eyebrows, "It is a fact that their former majesties were poisoned. Why are the people of the State of Xia panicked? Although His Former Majesty used to be the emperor of the State of Xia and the belief of many people, he has been away from the throne for more than a year, and during this period, he has never interfered in political affairs. He thus has no impact on the State of Xia, and he will not affect the public's will. "
"Yes... I am sorry. "
Luo Qingyan decided, "That's it. Liu Wenan, go and issue an imperial edict to post it out."
"Yes, your majesty."
Yun Shang then reminded the imperial physicians, "Now that we don't know what poison their former majesties have got, it's not appropriate to give them any medicine. You leave two to stay here and keep observing the symptoms of their former majesties. If there is any change in their symptoms, or if it is aggravated, you should immediately feed them antidote pills, and then send someone to report to his majesty and me."
"Yes, your majesty."
Then Yun Shang turned around and ordered the servants, "Keep those things outside there first. Don't let anyone move them. Keep an eye on them. If anything happens to them, I'll hold you accountable for it. "
"Yes, your majesty."
Yun Shang looked up at Luo Qingyan and said, "Your Majesty, post the notice as soon as possible. Their former majesty are both poisoned. We must find the solution as soon as possible."
