Chapter 841: Chapter 842: Soone Has Been Poisoning Him All Along! Chapter 841: Chapter 842: Soone Has Been Poisoning Him All Along! Seeing not only Su Chengyu enter but also three other people, two n and one woman, each of them possessing fine features and an extraordinary bearing, Su Chengjin asked, “Who are these three?”
Before An Jing could speak, Gong Juechen bowed and said, “Greetings to the Fifth Prince. I am the doctor ntioned by the Crown Prince, my surna is Gong.”
Su Chengjin did not say anything to Gong Juechen but instead turned to look at An Jing and Xiao Changyi.
With a smile, Su Chengyu introduced, “Brother, these are Emperor Changyi and his consort An Jing. Having heard of your ill health, they accompanied to see how you are.”
Su Chengjin was startled and tried to sit up, but he could not manage to do so and had to give up. Continuing to lie there, he weakly and apologetically said, “I ask for forgiveness from both brother and sister-in-law, for Chengjin genuinely cannot rise to greet you.”
Xiao Changyi’s face remained expressionless, and he did not say a word.
An Jing, looking at the sickly handso Prince lying in the bed, said with a smile, “You’re unwell, you should stay lying down.”
“Thank you for your understanding, sister-in-law,” Su Chengjin said, sounding very weak but still very polite and well-mannered.
After expressing thanks, Su Chengjin began to cough violently, even coughing up a mouthful of blood.
Seeing this, Su Chengyu beca anxious and quickly asked Gong Juechen to examine Su Chengjin.
Gong Juechen stepped forward, carefully took Su Chengjin’s pulse, examined several parts of his body, and asked him many questions before finally saying, “This isn’t a poison that cannot be cleared. As for why the poison in the Fifth Prince’s body has not been completely cleared, there are, broadly speaking, two possible reasons: one is that the doctors treating the Fifth Prince are not skilled enough, and the second is that soone has been continuously re-poisoning the Fifth Prince just as the poison is about to be cleared from his system.”
Because of the second possibility ntioned by Gong Juechen, everyone present was slightly stunned, having not anticipated this possibility.
Just then, a maidservant ca in to administer dicine to the Fifth Prince.
Slling the dicine, Gong Juechen stretched out his hand toward the maidservant, “Give the dicine.”
The maidservant hesitated, unsure whether to give it or not.
Imdiately, Su Chengjin said, “Give it to him.”
Only then did the maidservant hand over the dicine to Gong Juechen.
Gong Juechen first slled the dicine, then tested it with a silver needle, which imdiately turned black. Aside from Xiao Changyi, who remained calm and composed, the faces of everyone present changed.
It was clear that the second possibility was true; soone had been continuously poisoning Su Chengjin, which was why the poison in his body could not be fully cleared!
Seeing the silver needle turn black, the maidservant was so frightened that she began to knock her forehead on the ground toward Su Chengjin, indicating that she had no idea what was going on and that she was only responsible for delivering the dicine.
Su Chengjin’s expression was extrely unsightly. Soone had been poisoning him all this ti!
In anger, Su Chengyu demanded, “Who prescribed this dicine, who prepared it, and who boiled it?”
The manager of the Fifth Prince’s Mansion was standing on the side. Hearing Su Chengyu’s question, he quickly replied, “To answer the Crown Prince, the dicine was prescribed by Doctor Fang from the Imperial Hospital, prepared there, and boiled by the Fifth Prince’s personal servant Qin Yin. It has always been delivered to the Fifth Prince by another personal servant of his, Qi Yin. She is Qi Yin.”
As he spoke, the manager even pointed at the maidservant who was kneeling on the ground and incessantly kowtowing, begging for rcy from Su Chengjin.
Imdiately, Su Chengyu ordered, “Arrest Qi Yin and Qin Yin first. As for the Imperial Hospital and Doctor Fang, I will report this matter to our father the Emperor for a thorough investigation! To plot against a Prince cannot be tolerated, and they must be severely punished!”
“Yes, Crown Prince!” The manager promptly had Qin Yin and Qi Yin arrested.
