Chapter 615: She’s Been Poisoned For Too Long
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Killing her to silence her was undoubtedly the best way. Madam Zou was not someone of high status. If they wanted her to shut up, the person behind the scenes could have killed her instead of poisoning her.contemporary romance
“I’m not sure either. Perhaps they’re looking for a suitable person to test the effects of the poison…” Gu Qingxue’s voice was so soft that it could barely be heard.
Judge Wu did not hear her clearly and looked at Gu Qingxue in confusion. “What did you just say? I didn’t hear you clearly.”
Gu Qingxue did not answer him but sat down to take Madam Zou’s pulse.
Madam Zou was like a silly zombie. When Gu Qingxue touched her, she did not resist. She just stared at the sky in a daze and continued to laugh.
After Gu Qingxue took Madam Zou’s pulse, she realized that the poison in Madam Zou’s body was indeed very fierce. Furthermore, unlike her grandmother, this poison was not a slow-acting poison. In addition, she had been poisoned for many years, so it was impossible to cure her.
Gu Qingxue could not help but feel a little regretful.
If she could cure Madam Zou’s poison, she might be able to find out who had poisoned Madam Zou and connect it to her grandmother.
“How is it? Can this poison be cured?” Rong Zhan asked with concern.
Gu Qingxue shook her head in disappointment. “She’s been poisoned for too long, so I can’t get rid of the poison.”
“In that case, the clue is broken. Without Madam Zou as a witness, how are we going to identify the murderer?” Judge Wu said in puzzlement.
“Madam Zou may not know the truth. In fact, there is someone who knows more than Madam Zou and is more useful.” Rong Zhan noticed that Gu Qingxue and Judge Wu were looking at him curiously. He said slowly, “You should remember Imperial Physician Qin. He’s one of Prince Heng’s men, and he’s been helping Prince Heng to find out more about you.”
Gu Qingxue’s interest was piqued. She said with a faint smile, “If you didn’t mention it, I would have forgotten about him.”
“Back then, Imperial Physician Qin and Gu Ye had such a good relationship. Even after Beauty Yin was pregnant, it was Imperial Physician Qin who took the initiative to suggest that he could not serve Beauty Yin and wanted Gu Ye, who had better medical skills, to do it for him. From the matter of the Withered Bones Gu Worm, it can be seen that Imperial Physician Qin did it on purpose. Perhaps Imperial Physician Qin already knew that Beauty Yin was poisoned and was worried that it would affect himself, so he made up an excuse to let Gu Ye take the blame.” The more Judge Wu spoke, the more he sighed at the fickleness of the human heart.
Gu Qingxue’s gaze deepened. Her father, Gu Ye, was a kind person without any schemes. He never thought that a person’s heart could be so sinister.
“Noble Consort Xian is also Prince Heng’s younger sister. Imperial Physician Qin is responsible for serving her. In addition, he has been obstructing me from investigating the matter for the past few days. It can be seen that he must more or less know about what happened that year.” Gu Qingxue cupped her chin in her hands and seemed to be deep in thought. “Imperial Physician Qin is cunning. I’m afraid he won’t give up obediently using ordinary methods.”
“I can help you with this. In short, enter the palace and tell His Majesty about what happened in the concubine’s mausoleum.” Rong Zhan said as he walked toward Gu Qingxue. After standing in front of her, he reached out and removed the leaves in her hair very naturally. “Do you need me to accompany you to the palace?”
Gu Qingxue could not help but be surprised. She shook her head and rejected Rong Zhan. “I don’t want to make the second assassination too public. I ask that Your Royal Highness quickly capture the main culprit who hid in the concubine’s mausoleum and ambushed us.”
When they had come out of the concubine’s mausoleum, they had been brought to the assassin’s ambush location by a coachman arranged in advance. It was clear that someone had deliberately arranged for the problematic
