Chapter 30 Medicine Immortal Valley Cannot Be Left Alive 6
"The Emperor has also been poisoned."
As soon as Jiang He spoke, the Empress knelt down, and the other concubines and palace maids also knelt down in alarm.
Someone poisoned the emperor; this is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of one's family.
I don't know which thief dared to target both the Emperor and them.
This is tantamount to shaking the very foundation of the nation.
Upon hearing that he had been poisoned, the emperor had a feeling that he had known all along.
Although he hasn't been feeling well lately, he used to think he was still very capable.
Unfortunately, he never had any children.
He was starting to doubt himself.
Now that we know it was poisoning, it means it wasn't that he was incapable, but that someone was trying to harm him.
The Emperor immediately asked anxiously, "Divine Physician Jiang, is there any cure for this poison?"
He would not let anyone who dared to harm him off lightly.
If it weren't for the miraculous doctor, he would probably have died an unexplained death.
"It can be cured. This poison only hinders fertility and will not endanger life. However, the poisoning is already deep and will take time."
His Majesty has been overworked lately, and he must be feeling physically exhausted.
During the detoxification process, Your Majesty is advised to rest well, as this will make the treatment more effective.
"Yes, Your Majesty, please take care of your health."
The Empress also offered her advice.
The emperor must not fall now.
The person who poisoned us must be identified as soon as possible.
Otherwise, who knows if this poison might turn into a deadly poison next time.
As long as the Emperor is well, her position as Empress will be secure.
Moreover, once Doctor Jiang is cured of the poison and her body is healed, she will be able to have her own children.
But those hiding behind the scenes must be thoroughly dealt with.
Otherwise, even if she gets pregnant, there might be unexpected problems.
"Thank you for your help, Divine Physician Jiang. If you need any medicinal herbs, just say the word. You can take any herbs from the Imperial Hospital. If the Imperial Hospital doesn't have them, we'll send someone to find them."
He has indeed been feeling a bit overwhelmed lately, so he might as well take this opportunity to rest.
Once he's cured of the poison, he'll be able to have more children.
He needs to investigate this entire imperial court and harem thoroughly.
The Emperor sent a trusted confidant to accompany Physician Jiang, to be at his disposal.
The imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Academy were temporarily detained in one place.
So many people were poisoned, yet the incompetent doctors at the Imperial Medical Academy couldn't detect it at all.
It's possible that these imperial physicians were behind the poisoning. If they are found to be innocent, their lives might be spared once the truth is uncovered.
Jiang He only used some calming and tranquilizing herbs.
The most crucial element is that a little bit of spiritual spring water was added to it.
This bowl was prepared exclusively for the Emperor.
After all, the concubines in the harem were all in good health, and this spiritual spring water was meant to save the emperor's life.
The Emperor's health is already showing signs of decline. If he overworks himself, even the slightest mishap could trigger a relapse of his old injuries, leading to his eventual death.
After drinking the medicine, the emperor felt all his fatigue disappear, and even some of the hidden injuries he had sustained on the battlefield were healed.
He truly is a miracle doctor; he not only detoxified him but also healed his hidden injuries.
With the help of the miracle doctor, he believed that living for several more decades would not be a problem.
The imperial concubines' herbal medicines contained fertility-enhancing pills.
It is guaranteed that the Emperor and Empress will have their wish fulfilled and two children will be born within three years.
Many concubines privately inquired whether it would affect their offspring and whether their wishes could be fulfilled. With Jiang He's assurance, they all willingly drank the bitter medicine every day without leaving a drop.
However, only the first day's herbal decoction had added ingredients; the subsequent decoctions were ordinary.
Thanks to the Emperor's swift and decisive actions, quite a few people with ulterior motives were indeed uncovered in both the imperial court and the harem.
Many people, though unaware of how they were exposed, committed suicide by biting their tongues after being caught, while others kept poison in their mouths and would never utter a single word.
Seeing these people so resolutely facing death, the emperor was furious.
They are truly loyal.
In addition, some other private matters were also uncovered.
From stealing the master's things to causing the death of a palace maid or eunuch, they were all dealt with one by one.
Many people from the various palaces were taken away.
The palace maids and eunuchs were also filled with anxiety, not knowing how things had suddenly changed.
The ladies of the palace merely watched coldly as the servants were taken away.
Those who are taken away must have something unclean on their hands.
Some concubines even suspected something was wrong with the people serving them, so they only allowed their personal maids to serve them and didn't allow anyone else to get close, waiting until everything settled down before making any decisions.
The Emperor also discovered that the Crown Prince's side wasn't entirely clean either, as there were remnants of the previous dynasty around him.
She also gave birth to a son.
If he ultimately has no heir and only the crown prince succeeds him.
Wouldn't the throne then be seized by the treacherous officials of the previous dynasty?
The palace arrested many people and investigated many things, but they still couldn't find the person who poisoned the animals or how they did it.
They're probably all dead and can't prove it anymore.
Ultimately, the blame was placed on the remnants of the previous dynasty.
However, the emperor also became wary of the crown prince.
This son is useless. He thought his grandsons were good, so he figured if his son couldn't do it, his grandsons could too.
However, it seems that these grandsons also have problems now.
At such a young age, she was already trying to show off in front of him, just to get his attention.
They are all ambitious.
Some ministers even secretly began to take sides.
Hmph, a mere six-year-old child already wants to get his hands on power.
Whether they'll live to adulthood is still unknown.
The Crown Prince and his sons were all excluded by the Emperor.
Anyway, once he recovers, he'll be able to have his own children. He can then select a few and raise them well, so he won't have to worry about not having excellent successors.
After drinking the herbal decoction for ten days, Jiang He checked everyone's pulses again and found that the poison had been neutralized.
"Miracle doctor, should we take it for a few more days to consolidate the effect?"
Some empresses were worried that the poisoning was too severe and the toxins had not been completely eliminated, which might still affect their ability to have children.
"Every medicine has some toxicity. If Your Majesties are worried, I can prescribe a few dietary supplements to cultivate your character and strengthen your body."
"Then I will listen to the divine doctor. Thank you for your help."
The empresses privately sought Jiang He's advice on conceiving, and Jiang He responded to every single one of them.
The Emperor consulted Physician Jiang and confirmed that the Empress was now capable of conceiving. That very night, he went to the Empress's room.
However, without seeing a sign of pregnancy, neither the Emperor nor the concubines in the harem were at ease.
However, Yaoxian Valley is inhabited by people from the martial arts world, and Doctor Jiang cares about the common people and also needs to travel to various places.
The Emperor could not force them to remain in the capital, so he specially granted Yaoxiangu Medical Clinic a place and even personally wrote the plaque for it. Later, Yaoxiangu branch clinics were established in various places.
Disciples of Yaoxian Valley traveled down the mountain and provided free medical consultations at the clinic.
This way, ordinary people will also have something to look for.
Jiang He agreed.
Free clinics on the street are free clinics, and free clinics inside clinics are also free clinics.
Moreover, Medicine Immortal Valley is backed by imperial power, so no one would be foolish enough to mess with it.
After all, Medicine Immortal Valley is not yet capable of protecting itself. In a few years, once it has trained its people, it will no longer need to depend on others.
