Chapter 10 - I Want to See Her

Judge Rong pondered for a moment and said slowly, 

"If I'm not mistaken, it's probably the diluted Thousand Drunken Powder."

Ye Yining's face turned cold when she heard this. 

"Although I'm not a doctor, I know that the Thousand Drunken Powder has another name. It's called the Power Dispersing Powder, right? This poisoner is targeting my father and my big brother. Could this be a spy from an enemy country trying to harm my father and my big brother?"

Judge Rong nodded solemnly. 

"Yes, the Thousand Drunken Powder is also called the Power Dispersing Powder. I will report this matter to the emperor. General Ye, if you feel unwell, I will take your pulse."

General Ye nodded. 

"It's true that I get dizzy easily and feel weak occasionally. However, I drank the spirit laurel tea my daughter gave me last night and I feel much better."

After checking General Ye's pulse, the judge asked, 

"Do you still have the Ling Gui tea that General Ye mentioned? Can you give me some to test?"

"There's more. I'll make you a cup of spirit laurel tea!" 

Ye Yining went to brew the spirit laurel tea.

It was said that doctors saved countless people and they must be people with merit. Therefore, she was willing to make them spirit laurel tea.

General Ye was actually reluctant to give away the spirit laurel tea, but seeing his daughter's enthusiasm, he didn't say anything.

Ye Yining quickly served each imperial physician a cup of spirit laurel tea and then stood obediently beside her father.

Judge Rong sniffed the fragrance of osmanthus in the cup and took a sip.

A moment later, his eyes flashed with shock and surprise.

This osmanthus tea was really good stuff. It could be called a spiritual osmanthus.

Osmanthus had the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, warming, and replenishing Yang qi and helping the human body expel toxins. However, the effect of this spirit osmanthus tea was obviously better. After drinking a cup of osmanthus tea, he felt refreshed.

The other imperial physicians had the same feeling as the judge of the Rongcheng Hospital. A few of them looked at General Ye with envy.

Finally, Imperial Physician Wen was the first to ask what everyone was thinking, 

"General, do you still have such spirit osmanthus? Can you spare some for us?"

General Ye explained with regret, 

"My daughter, Ye Yining, only has a small jar of spirit laurel tea. I sent some to the emperor yesterday. The rest is probably enough to brew three to five times. I'm sorry!"

"I was rude." 

Imperial Physician Wen's expression was somewhat awkward, but he didn't say anything more.

After the imperial physicians left, Ye Yining used her consciousness to ask Ling Gui, 

"Did I get merit points?"

"Master, that Judge of Rongcheng is a person with great merit. You also received 3,000 merit points from him. There was also Imperial Physician Wang whom you obtained 300 merit points from."

Ye Yining was surprised. 

"Judge Rong's merit points are the same as the emperor's. He must be a good person. Oh right, just the two of them? Where's Imperial Physician Wen?"

"The others and Imperial Physician Wen are not grateful to Master, nor do they feel grateful to Master's father because of the spirit laurel tea, so they did not give any merit points."

Ye Yining raised her eyebrows slightly. She felt a little sorry for the spirit osmanthus that had been drunk for nothing.

General Ye sent the imperial physician out of the door and saw his daughter standing there in a daze, so he gave an order.

"Ye Yining, your mother and father have something to talk about. The food in the kitchen is probably not delicious anymore."

When Ye Yining heard this, she immediately refused. 

"Father, give Yunjiao some silver and let her bring her servant girls to Tianke Restaurant to eat. I have some pastries in my room. I want to stay at home and pack my luggage. Jun Jiuji said that he would take me to Cloud Border City."

"Alright then!" General Ye didn't force her and let her go.

Ye Yunjiao was really a little hungry. In addition, she was still afraid, so she immediately brought the servant girl to the Su residence to call Su Yu 'er, and went to Tianke Restaurant together.

 ..

In the royal study.

After the Emperor heard what the judge said, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Emperor, the Thousand Drunken Powder is a colorless and odorless poison. It is very difficult to detect its toxicity with ordinary silver utensils. General Ye is considered lucky this time. The poison accumulated in his body was actually a little heavy, but fortunately, the spirit laurel tea had dissolved a lot of it, so it would not affect General Ye's power for the time being."

The Emperor nodded slightly, 

"That spirit laurel tea is indeed not bad. Zhen feels much better today. Her silver teapot is also not bad. Go and borrow it and measure the water in the wells outside the palace."

"Yes. I will go immediately."

"Go to the Cold Palace as well."

"Yes."

At the same time, in Tianke Restaurant, Ye Yunjiao returned a small paper bag to Su Yu 'er.

"Sister Su, today, my house detected that there was a Thousand Drunken Powder, so I don't dare to take these medicines to protect myself. Thank you."

Su Yu 'er was frustrated, but she didn't forget to show concern for Ye Yunjiao.

"Yunjiao must be frightened! I heard that your father used a silver pot to detect the poison, but how could the silver pot detect the poison of the Thousand Drunken Powder? The Thousand Drunken Powder is colorless and odorless, and even silver needles can't detect the poison."

Ye Yunjiao shook her head. 

"I'm not sure either. That silver teapot was given to my sister by Jun Jiuji. He said that he wanted to bring her to Cloud Border City. Sister Su, can I follow you to Cloud Border City?"

Su Yu 'er was actually impatient to bring Ye Yunjiao along, but if Ye Yining and Jun Jiuji were to go, it would be better to bring Ye Yunjiao along.

In addition, she was afraid that Ye Yunjiao would expose the fact that she had provided her with poison and betray her.

Therefore, she pretended to be happy and nodded. 

"I'll tell my father. This time, there are quite a few people from the Imperial Academy of Medicine who are going to Cloud Border City. If my father agrees, we can go together and have company."

"Sister Su, you're so nice!"

Ye Yunjiao smiled and hugged Su Yu 'er's arm.

Since Ye Yining was going to marry Jun Jiuji, Brother Mo would be hers.

Jun Jiuji Manor.

Jun Jiuji's expression darkened after hearing Ye Ze's report. 

"What is she doing now?"

"Master, the future Wang Fei has not come out since she returned to the Frozen Snow Pavilion. She seems to be tidying up her clothes."

"Find the poisoner and deal with him."

"Yes, I will. Master, the future princess consort said that you gave them silverware. The silver teapot was later borrowed by the Honor Wing. Will it cause us trouble?"

Jun Jiuji glanced at him. 

"Since the Princess Consort said that it was a gift from me, then it was a gift from me. What's the trouble?"

"Yes. This subordinate understands."

Not long after Ye Ze left, the Empress Dowager came.

Granny Li bowed to Jun Jiuji and immediately explained her intentions.

"Your Highness, let this old servant come over and ask where you bought the silverware you gave the Ye family. The Empress Dowager also plans to buy a set."

Jun Jiuji lightly pounded his leg, as if he was not feeling well. When he replied to Granny Li, his voice was low and cold.

"In the past, I bought it from a small peddler in the One Night Thousand Gold City. Later, this king will go and look for it. If I find the person, I will help the Empress Dowager buy another set."

Granny Li didn't ask further after hearing what Jun Jiuji said.

As soon as Granny Li left, the Crown Prince and the Third Prince also sent people to ask about it. They all wanted to buy the Ye family's silverware.

Jun Jiuji was impatient to deal with these people. He found an excuse and prepared two carriages of gifts before going to the General's Manor openly.

Although he had just met Little Ye Yining this morning, he wanted to see her again!
