Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 196
Chapter 196 Spies From The Palace
“Miss Bai, I just want to ask one thing clearly.” Cha Jinzhi looked at her and asked, “Did you marry the Ninth Prince because he is the Ninth Prince, or because you really love him?”
Bai Junzhuo really wanted to ask something that had nothing to do with you, but after thinking for a while, he said softly, “Your Highness and I are naturally in love. When I first met him, I didn’t know his background.”
When Cha Jinzhi heard this, he smiled and said, “I knew that Miss Bai was not a shallow and vulgar woman. Since that’s the case, I’m relieved. Goodbye.”
He turned around to leave, and Bai Junzhuo heaved a sigh of relief. However, what he said was like what Bai Xu said to Zhu Yankang. However, Bai Xu was bitter and Cha Jinzhi was distracted.
Just as Cha Jinzhi left, Yin Xun walked over. Cha Jinzhi bowed and said “Ninth Prince” before leaving the palace.
Yin Xun stopped and looked at him for a while. When Bai Junzhao saw that he was in a daze, he stepped forward and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Yin Xun still looked in the direction where Cha Jinzhi had left, and he was puzzled, “Who is he?”
Bai Junzhuo was shocked and said in surprise, “You don’t even know him? He is Cha Jinzhi. When we were in Luoyang, we were very familiar with him.”
“Is that so?” Yin Xun patted his head and said after a long time, “I really can’t remember.”
Bai Jun was so frightened that he almost cried out. He hurriedly said, “Zisu, what happened to you? I still remember you telling me that you remembered Cha Jin once when you saw him as a child. You had such a good memory when you were so young. Why have you forgotten about him now?”
Yin Xun shook his head blankly, unable to remember at all.
He said helplessly, “I guess I’ve been too tired lately. You don’t have to worry. He’s not important to me. It’s normal for me to forget him.”
Bai Junzhuo thought about it carefully. That was also true. To Yin Xun, Cha Jinzhi was just an ordinary NPC. If Yin Xun had to remember everyone, it would be strange if he didn’t die of exhaustion. Instead, he asked, “Have you settled your business?”
Yin Xun nodded and smiled, “It’s settled. Now I’m going to the Chamber of Commerce.”
“Yes.” Bai Junzhuo nodded and said goodbye to Yin Xun. He returned to the pharmacy and continued to develop the antidote.
The mice that had been fed the medicine still did not react at all. However, since Yin Xun poisoned them every full moon night, would these rats not poison them until full moon night?
No, it’s been too long. She had to develop an antidote before Yin Xun’s next poison attack.
She lay on the stage and looked at the rats, knocking on the crown prince, muttering to herself, “What exactly do you need to do to get poisonous hair?”
Of course, the mouse would not respond to her. She was anxious and helpless, so she let out a long sigh and stood up. When he accidentally touched the cabinet behind him, he heard the cabinet shake and was about to collapse.
Bai Junzhuo hurriedly turned around to support the cabinet, but some medicinal ingredients still fell off.
She lowered her head to pick up the medicinal ingredients and put them away. She turned around to continue observing her mice, only to see a cage of mice scrambling for something black to eat.
This should be the medicinal ingredients that fell from the cabinet just now. Bai Junzhuo hurriedly opened the cage to take the things from the rats’ mouths. This was because when she did the experiment, she did not consider that if anything happened in the future, her experiment would be in vain.
She was not afraid that these mice would bite her, so she directly reached in and took out the medicinal ingredient. After taking it out, she discovered that it was the Earth Crow Peach that Siwei had stuffed into her before she died.
This piece of crow peach was bitten by a mouse and could no longer be used by others. Bai Junzhuo casually threw it away.
She continued to observe the mice, because she was too serious. It was only when Xing Zi came in and called for her to eat that she came back to her senses. She went back to her room to eat. After eating, she wanted to run to the pharmacy.
Xingzi was very helpless and stopped her. “Miss, do you want to rest for a while? You can’t be tired like this.”
Bai Junzhuo shook his head, “No need, I’m used to it.”
Xingzi sighed and said, “Miss, what are you talking about? You’ve never been so tired when you studied medicine with Master. How can you get used to it?”
Bai Junzhuo smiled faintly. The habit she spoke of was that in modern times, ever since she graduated, she had practically forgotten to eat and sleep every day to do research. It was as if he had returned to his days in the research institute.
She didn’t want to explain to Xingzi. She ignored Xingzi’s obstruction and went to the pharmacy again. She couldn’t wait to continue observing the mice. She actually discovered that the mice that had fallen into the cage of the Earth Crow Peach were actually hugging each other and shivering!
Bai Junzhuo was excited and hurriedly leaned over to observe. Although it was winter, there were many smokeless charcoal pots in the pharmacy. The room was not cold, and the rats in the other cages were all sleeping in the corners. There was nothing wrong with it. Only the rats in this cage stared at their surroundings in horror with their blood-red eyes.
Bai Junzhuo observed them attentively. After about half an hour, the rats in the cage began to develop manic symptoms one after another. They bit the cage crazily for a while and then became dispirited. They shrank back together again.
Bai Junzhuo scooped up a spoonful of food and passed it in, but the rats didn’t react much.
She put down the spoon and took out a mouse. In ancient times, there was no thermometer that could measure body temperature. Bai Junzhuo removed his eyeball and looked at its blood flow and death rate to estimate the temperature of the mice. Indeed, it was much lower than normal temperature.
Mice and humans were both thermostatic animals. These mice were first manic and then dispirited, their appetite decreased, their body temperature dropped, their plasma thickened, and their heartbeat slowed, exactly the same as when Yin Xun poisoned them!
Bai Junzhuo was excited, and it took him a while to recover his calm. He carefully recalled the reason for the symptoms of the cage mouse. Thinking back and forth, it seemed that there was only one reason-the Earth Crow Peach that had accidentally fallen in.
Diwu Peach was non-toxic, Guishen Channel, and Ganxingping. Taking it alone was just an ordinary tonic. It must have been combined with other medicines to cause the symptoms of poisoning.
Thinking of it this way, she shouldn’t have stuffed something into her for no reason before she died. She must have had a direction. Could it be that she already knew that the Earth Crow Peach was the key reason for Yin Xun’s poisoning?
Could it be that Siwei poisoned him?
Impossible. Not to mention that Yin Xun had poisoned him again after Siwei died, even if that wasn’t the case, Siwei had always admired Yin Xun. She treated Yin Xun as a god and definitely wouldn’t persecute him. She should be the same as herself, absolutely not allowing anyone to harm Yin Xun.
She must have sensed that something was wrong, but before she could investigate it clearly, a series of things happened. She stuffed a piece of ground crow peach into herself to remind her of the person who was trying to assassinate Yin Xun.
And she ate the same food as Yin Xun every day. This Earth Crow Peach definitely couldn’t be planted in food. So where exactly is it?
Bai Junzhuo knocked on his head, unable to understand what was going on.
He was about to have a clue, but he was stuck at the last step! She was a little impatient. She suddenly stood up and wanted to go out, but she accidentally tripped over something and fell onto the stage.
She hurriedly protected her lower abdomen. The jar of food on the table was knocked over, staining her clothes. The edge of the table poked the back of her hand, causing her heart to ache.
Fortunately, she was fine. She stood up and looked at her dirty coat. She wanted to trouble Ju An to take it out and wash it again.
She helplessly left the pharmacy and went back to change clothes. After changing clothes, Ju An came over to take out the clothes and wash them. Coincidentally, Nurse Huang delivered the clothes that had been washed and dried over.
Nurse Huang put down his clothes and turned around to leave. Xingzi came over to put the clothes away in the closet and said, “Nurse Huang is really strange.”
Bai Junzhuo was puzzled, “What’s wrong with her?”
“She said last time that she didn’t want to eat free food because she was grateful to His Highness for his kindness. She wanted to wash his clothes. But you said that she could wash the clothes together with the bed sheets. She still had to separate your clothes and wash them for Ju An.” Xingzi coldly snorted, “Could it be that he hates Miss?”
Bai Junzhuo smiled. “So what if she doesn’t want to wash my clothes? After all, she is His Highness’ nurse. With the word’mother ‘, her status is different. Didn’t you see that everyone in the manor treats her as a second housekeeper? I still have to respect her.”
Xing Zi pouted and said, “I see, she is just relying on the old to sell the old.”
“What are you talking about!” Bai Junzhuo fiercely patted Xing Zi’s head, “What’s the point of this little matter? Even if you’re worried about it in your heart, don’t say it out loud.”
‘”Oh,” said Xingzi, rubbing his head in grievance. He patted Bai Junzhuo’s face and quickly changed the subject. “Miss, I wonder what Nurse Huang used to wash his clothes. It seems to be different from ordinary saponins. Smell it, it smells better than our clothes.”
“Really? I haven’t noticed yet.” Bai Junzhuo took the clothes and sniffed them. He nodded and said, “It smells better than my clothes, and the smell …”
Bai Junzhuo seemed to have suddenly thought of something. The clothes in his hand fell to the ground in a trance. Xingzi hurriedly picked them up and patted them, “Ah, the clothes fell to the ground. Should I ask Nurse Huang to wash them again?”
“No need,” Bai Junzhuo came back to his senses and said to Xing Zi, “You go and secretly ask someone what Nanny Huang uses to wash his highness’s clothes.”
Xingzi scratched his head, puzzled, “Miss, just call her over and ask, why are you still secretly going?”
“Don’t ask so much, just go. Find out what Nurse Huang used to remove the stain.” Bai Junzhuo whispered, “Regardless of whether it’s saponin or anything else, it’s best to secretly bring one over.”
Xingzi still didn’t know why she secretly went to get it, but she didn’t ask any further and immediately went out to do something.
After a while, he returned with his things and happily said to Bai Junzhuo, “Young miss, I’ve brought them back.”
Bai Junzhuo took the item in her hand and sneered, “Indeed.”
