Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 197
Chapter 197 Set Out to Catch a Spy
Bai Junzhuo sneered, “Indeed.”
Xingzi blinked his eyes and asked confusedly, “Miss, what did you find?”
“Xingzi, you are really amazing!” Bai Junzhuo grabbed Xing Zi’s shoulder and said to her, “You’re really a genius!”
Xingzi scratched his head embarrassedly. “No, no, miss, you’re flattering me. But what’s going on?”
Bai Junzhuo let go of her and played with the black block in his hand. “Nurse Huang only washes his highness’ clothes and not mine. The smell on his highness’ clothes is different from mine. If it weren’t for your reminder, I wouldn’t have noticed it,” Bai Junzhuo said.
‘”So what if I find this?” Xing Zi was still puzzled.
Bai Junzhuo did not reply and instructed, “Go and call Nurse Huang over.”
“Oh.” Seeing Bai Junzhuo’s mysterious appearance, Xingzi hurriedly turned to call Nurse Huang.
After a while, Nurse Huang followed Xingzi and bowed to Bai Junzhuo. “This servant greets the princess. May I know why the princess called me here?”
At this moment, Ju An also came over after washing her clothes. Seeing that the two of them were talking, she did not disturb them and went to the dressing table to tidy up her things.
Bai Junzhuo glanced at Ju An and then turned to Nanny Huang. “Nanny, don’t be too polite. Sit down.”
Nanny Huang did not hold back and walked to Bai Junzhuo’s side to sit down.
“I called Nanny here today because I wanted to talk to Nanny about her parents.” Bai Junzhuo did not intend to get straight to the point and beat around the bush, “I heard that since His Highness was born, Nanny has been waiting on His Highness, right?”
Nurse Huang nodded and said, “Yes, this old servant has served His Highness for more than twenty years.”
“Before serving His Highness, did Nurse Huang serve His Highness’ mother, Concubine Chu?”
“No,” Nurse Huang shook his head. “Imperial Concubine Chu died in childbirth. After giving birth to the prince, the first emperor specially assigned this servant to take care of the young prince.”
“Oh?” Bai Junzhuo nodded slightly and said thoughtfully, “How did I hear that Imperial Concubine Chu died six months after giving birth to her highness?”
Nurse Huang waved his hand and said, “Princess, the news that comes from the rumors is not more accurate than this servant’s.”
“Nanny is right.” Bai Junzhuo nodded and asked again, “Who was that granny serving before serving His Highness?”
“It’s Imperial Concubine Liu.”
“Concubine Liu?” Bai Junzhuo was puzzled, “Which prince’s birth mother is this Concubine Liu?”
“Ah,” Nurse Huang sighed, “Concubine Liu is the biological mother of the eldest prince. Unfortunately, Concubine Liu’s body has always been weak. On the day of delivery, the mother and son went together.”
“Oh? Isn’t His Majesty the Great Prince now?”
Nanny Huang suddenly looked at Bai Junzhuo like she was looking at a monster and asked, “Didn’t the princess know? Your Majesty is the Third Prince.”
“I’ve never noticed anything like this before, so I never knew.” Bai Junzhuo thought for a moment and then asked, “Then who did you serve before serving Concubine Liu?”
Nurse Huang shook his head and said, “Ever since this servant entered the palace, she has been serving Imperial Concubine Liu.”
Bai Junzhuo pondered for a long time before the Empress Dowager covered her mouth and yawned. She said to Nurse Huang, “Look at me. I’m sleepy again so quickly. Mammy, please leave first. I’ll talk to you another day.”
Nurse Huang replied.
As soon as she left, Xing Zi stepped forward and asked, “Miss, what happened to Nanny Huang? This servant is at a loss as to what you are going to do.”
“I’m just testing her today.” Bai Junzhuo rubbed his head and said, “The thing you just gave me is called the Earth Crow Peach. Through my research, I found that the Earth Crow Peach combined with some ordinary poison can induce the cold poison in His Highness’s body.” Nurse Huang used it to wash his highness’ clothes. And she only washes His Highness’ clothes. That’s why I’ve always been with His Highness and I’m not poisoned. ”
Xingzi was shocked and exclaimed, “This servant is truly experienced. I originally thought that poisoning my hairpin and medicine pot could be considered an expert, but I didn’t expect that my clothes could be poisoned as well!”
When Ju An heard what they said, he was puzzled, “But Princess, didn’t His Highness’s cold poison not break out a while ago? But Nanny Huang has also been washing his clothes for His Highness in the field of crow peaches during this period of time.”
“That’s right, after returning from Luoyang, His Highness’s poison has never broken out again. This is because there is still a lack of another poison.” Bai Junzhuo looked at Ju An and said, “Your Highness’s life is basically the same, and the things you come into contact with have not changed at all. What do you think changed so suddenly that caused the poison in Your Highness’s body to relapse again?”
Ju An frowned and thought for a while, but couldn’t figure out why. Apricot suddenly understood and pointed at the incense stick in the room. “It was the incense stick sent by the Empress Dowager! It was only after His Highness touched the incense stick that he suddenly poisoned it on the full moon night!”
Bai Junzhuo nodded and praised, “Smart. That’s why I suspect that Nurse Huang is from the Empress Dowager. She has been cooperating with the Empress Dowager to give His Highness this chronic poison.”
“So that’s the case,” Xingzi nodded. “That’s why the young lady asked her who she served in the palace. But Nurse Huang said she didn’t serve the Empress Dowager.”
“So I think she’s lying.” Bai Junzhuo concluded.
Ju An shook his head and said, “Impossible. Our Prince has never participated in any disputes over imperial power. Why did the Empress Dowager poison him? Furthermore, the Empress Dowager has followed the Empress Dowager since childhood. How could the Empress Dowager treat him as her own son? Furthermore, Nurse Huang has followed the Emperor for so many years. How could she poison him?”
“Ju’an, you don’t understand. Even though His Highness has never participated in the affairs of the Central Government, there are two things that make the Empress Dowager regard him as a major threat.” Bai Junzhuo narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “First, he is a rich country. The Empress Dowager will definitely be afraid of his financial resources.” Second, his surname was Yin. Apart from that, there was another flaw in Nurse Huang’s words. She said that the mother and son that she had served Concubine Liu had both died. How could the previous emperor send her to serve the young prince who had just been born when even the original master and son had not been able to serve her well? ”
“But, but” Ju An Ren Ran did not want to believe that the one who had been poisoning Yin Xun was Nurse Huang.
“But she doesn’t admit it. I can’t do anything to her for the time being.” Bai Jun burned his chin and fell into deep thought, muttering to himself, “If only I could know the secret history of the palace back then.”
“Young miss, go ask someone who understands.” Xingzi suggested.
“Who are you looking for?” Bai Junzhuo looked at her and said, “After arriving in Chang’an, the only female member of the noble family that I am familiar with is Princess Jin Nan. No matter what, Princess Jin Nan is only an outer vassal king. How much do you know about the matters of the Imperial Palace?”
Moreover, even if she knew, Princess Jinnan might not necessarily tell her.
After a moment of silence, Ju An suddenly said, “By the way, there are records of personnel transfers in the palace. The Taiyuan Hospital should also have records of imperial concubine’s medication and illness.” “As long as the princess can obtain the records of the Imperial Hospital, she can find out exactly how Imperial Concubine Liu and Imperial Concubine Chu died back then. She can also find out from the Liquid Court Bureau whether Nurse Huang had done anything under the Empress Dowager.”
Bai Junzhuo’s eyes lit up, and then he laughed, “You’re right, Ju An, immediately enter the palace and ask Consort Shu to find all the records of the Liquid Court Bureau and the Grand Hospital for me.”
“Yes.” Ju An accepted the order and immediately went out to do it.
After Ju’an left, Xingzi immediately went to pick up the incense in the room and said to Bai Junzhuo, “This servant knew that this incense is not a good thing the first time I saw it. As expected, this servant will throw this incense away.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded, and Xingzi went out to throw incense. After throwing it away, he came in and said to Bai Junzhuo, “Miss, do you want me to open the window for some air?”
Bai Junzhuo hurriedly shook his head and said, “Don’t, I’m freezing to death. This Fragrant Change Powder will be almost gone by the time His Highness returns. It won’t be a problem.”
Xingzi did not open the window and returned to Bai Junzhuo’s side. He heaved a long sigh of relief and said, “Now, when Ju An comes back to show the records to Miss, there will be no hiding place for the person who secretly harmed Her Highness. Miss will never have to worry again.”
Bai Junzhuo smiled faintly and shook his head, “I accidentally heard someone say at the Chamber of Commerce that there was a big fire at the Taiyuan Hospital earlier. The entire Taiyuan Hospital and the Taiyi Doctor on duty that night were burned to ashes. It is estimated that Ju An’s trip was in vain.”
Hearing that, Xingzi said worriedly, “Then what should we do?”
“So I still need to ask someone who knows the truth.” Bai Junzhuo said, “Xingzi, do you still remember that day when Shui Lingyu scolded Fu Yunyue?”
“Of course I remember,” Xingzi nodded. “This Princess Shui, although she is a princess, she is no different from a shrew when she is fierce. Fu Yunyue hates her, and she is no better.”
“I think she’s really cute.” Bai Junzhuo smiled and said, “Moreover, she is a seventeen or eighteen year old girl. She knows everything about the Fu Clan many years ago. Either she likes to inquire about others too much, or she has a mother who likes to chew people’s tongue. In that case, maybe she knows what happened in the palace.”
“Ah?” Xingzi pouted, “But even if she knew, she wouldn’t necessarily tell Miss. She’s so fierce, so Miss shouldn’t ask her.”
“I won’t go,” Bai Junzhuo said with a smile. “Go and call her over. Tell her that I have something to look for her.”
“You want this servant to go?” “This servant will definitely be rejected,” said Xingzi reluctantly.
“I’ll write a letter. Bring it to her. She’ll definitely come back after reading it.” Bai Junzhuo smiled and said, “Why don’t you go get the paper and pen?”
“Oh, oh.” Xingzi hurriedly went out to fetch the pen and paper. Bai Junzhuo raised his hand and wrote five large words, folding them and handing them to Xingzi.
Xing Zi immediately left the Ninth Prince’s Mansion to look for Shui Lingyu.
In the evening, Bai Junzhuo was enjoying his warm porridge and eating his pastries. A servant came over to report, “Princess, Princess Shui of the Chen Cang Prince’s Mansion wishes to see you.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded and said, “Let her in.”
Not long after, Shui Lingyu hurriedly walked in and Xing Zi followed behind her out of breath.
Shui Fei Yu rushed into Bai Jun Zhuo’s room and slammed the five words that Bai Jun Zhuo had written to her heavily on the table. She asked in shock, “What do you mean?”
