Su Yingxue let out a cold laugh. “Emperor, Consort Xiang has just woken up. She cannot handle any more shocks.”

Consort Xiang cooperated and lay in Chu Mingyuan’s arms, pretending to be frightened and panicking. “Emperor, Xiang ‘er is scared.”

“Don’t be afraid, Xiang ‘er.”

Chu Mingyuan tenderly reassured Consort Xiang and immediately scolded the empress. “What are you shouting for? You frightened Xiang’er. Get out!”

The empress was still in a state of shock. How could she have thought that a dead person could be resurrected? She brushed past Su Yingxue and could not see her face, but she was even more afraid of her.

She had brought someone back to life who had been dead for hours from severe poisoning!

What kind of creature was she?

While the empress believed that Su Yingxue was a monster, she also pondered her way out. Once Consort Xiang woke up, if the emperor investigated her cause of death… what should she do!

“Emperor, Xiang’er almost died without any clear reason. I implore the emperor to seek justice for Xiang’er and let me stay safely by the emperor’s side.” After experiencing death once, Consort Xiang’s gentle and soft personality was now filled with resentment.

“Xiang’er, I will investigate!”

During their conversation, Chu Mingyuan looked at Su Yingxue with a gentle gaze mixed with a hint of vigilance. “I wonder, genius doctor, what method did you use to save Xiang’er?”

“Emperor, I thought you would first ask why Consort Xiang was poisoned and how she was poisoned.” Su Yingxue raised an eyebrow.

“Who harmed Xiang’er?!” Chu Mingyuan was taken aback.

From the moment the genius doctor woke up Consort Xiang, his thoughts changed.

If it wasn’t the genius doctor who harmed Xiang’er, then it must be someone else with ulterior motives.

“Ninth Prince, what are you doing? How dare you! Why is there blood splattered all over the hall!”

The empress screamed once again. Chu Mingyuan comforted Consort Xiang and brought Su Yingxue to the outer hall.

In the main hall, Chu Yihan threw in two bloody people, scaring the Empress so much that her face turned pale.

Chu Mingyuan furrowed his brows and looked at Chu Yihan. “What’s going on?”

Chu Yihan coldly pointed at the two people on the ground. “Consort Xiang’s maidservant and the chief eunuch.”

Two extremely important witnesses.

Xiang Ling had been tortured and was covered in blood. She desperately crawled towards Su Yingxue and weakly said, “Genius doctor, please save Your Majesty. Save Your Majesty…”

As soon as she spoke, the empress panicked and said, “Emperor, these people failed to serve Consort Xiang properly and almost caused her to lose her life. They should be executed immediately to avenge Consort Xiang!”

“Empress, are you seeking justice for the concubine, or do you want to kill the concubine’s witnesses?” Consort Xiang trembled as she walked out.

Chu Mingyuan immediately held her in his arms, his eyes filled with concern. “Xiang’er, I told you to rest well. Why did you come out?”

“Emperor, I do not want to die for no reason again. Xiang Ling is a servant girl I brought from MY hometown. She would never harm ME.” Every word from Consort Xiang made Chu Mingyuan’s heart ache even more.

“Your Majesty! It was all my carelessness. I left the medicine furnace for a moment today and that’s when you were plotted against. I deserve to die!” Xiang Ling kowtowed, tears streaming down her face, consumed by guilt.

“I had already warned you that only one person could touch the Empress’s medicine and not leave. Why did something happen to the Empress today? Why did you leave?” Su Yingxue asked sharply.

Xiang Ling angrily pointed at the person beside her. “It’s Eunuch Qin! He came to tell me that something had happened to the genius doctor. I was worried and went to look for Your Majesty. When I came back, Eunuch Qin had finished brewing the medicine and I brought it to Your Majesty. Who knew that Your Majesty would vomit blood after drinking it? I have never let others brew medicine for Your Majesty, but did not expect Eunuch Qin to actually….’1
