Luo Xue also had a bad premonition. When the silver spoon turned black, it meant that it was poisoned. Silver could identify ordinary poisons. But who poisoned the Empress Dowager?

"Esteemed empress, before the empress dowager went to sleep, you fed her the medicine." His concubines also squeezed in, as if saying it on purpose for Luo Xue, Helian Xi and the others to hear.

Luo Xue didn't say anything. Just based on the Empress Dowager's current symptoms, she couldn't determine what poison it was, but everyone's eyes were fixed on her, as if she was the one who harmed the Empress Dowager.

"Xue'er, how is the empress dowager's health?" Helian Yi Chen looked anxiously at Her Majesty.

"From the Empress Dowager's symptoms, as long as you can find out the reason and apply the right medicine, you should be fine." Whether this was a coincidence or intentional, with the patient being the largest, at this time, no matter who said anything, it would not affect her.

"Imperial Mother, where are you feeling unwell?" Helian Yi asked urgently.

In this world, the only person he cared about was the Empress Dowager. Even though she was not his mother, she was the only person he had come into contact with who truly cared for him like he was her own child.

Your Majesty …" I'm afraid that This Dowager... I can't do it anymore, the emperor must … "Take good care of yourself, I can't …" Her Majesty clutched at Helian Chen's hand, as if she were really dying.

Luo Xue couldn't help but frown. It seemed like she had seen this sort of scenario somewhere before.

"The imperial physician is here, Your Majesty. The imperial physician is here." Lian Hai's voice sounded from outside the hall as he hurried in.

Upon hearing that the imperial physician had arrived, Luo Xue immediately gave way to him. At this moment, the empress dowager was in so much pain that her sweat fell like rain, and her face was completely pale.

Luo Xue quietly stood to the side and watched as the imperial physician diagnosed the empress dowager, while Helian Yi Chen tightly held onto the empress dowager's other hand. He had never thought that this tyrant Helian Xi Chen would be so filial. He had never thought that under his cold and emotionless appearance, he would have such a filial heart.

"Imperial Physician, what kind of illness did the empress dowager have?" Helian Xi Chen immediately asked when she saw the imperial physician let go of the Empress Dowager's hand.

"Your Majesty, the empress dowager seemed to have been poisoned with food. I wonder what kind of food she ate in the end?" The imperial physician lowered his head and asked.

"Before, the empress dowager slept after drinking some medicine. That medicine was personally fed by the empress dowager herself." Yi Fei said in a strange tone.

Helian Yi's face immediately darkened. He had been anxious for the empress dowager, so he didn't pay much attention to everyone's thoughts. Now that he had heard Yi Fei's words, he immediately utilized his superpower while his face darkened.

"Yi Fei, from your words, you think that the empress has poisoned the empress dowager? Did you see that?" Helian Yi looked at Yi Fei with her sharp eyes.

He had already seen the reason from her. It turned out that she had sent someone to add poison mushrooms to the Empress Dowager's medicine, and thought it was flawless.

"Your majesty, chenqie didn't mean that. Chenqie only replied to the imperial physician." Yi Fei's expression changed slightly. She immediately knelt down in fear and said.

"Lian Hai, go bring the medicinal dregs that the empress dowager drank before." Helian Yi Chen did not even look at Yi Fei as he directly ordered Lian Hai.

He believed that he would definitely be able to find her among the dregs. As for Yi Fei, he would slowly teach her a lesson. He didn't expect that not only did this woman not learn to be obedient, she even wanted to take revenge on the little girl.

"Your majesty, could it be that you already know what poison the empress dowager is infected with?" Luo Xue suspiciously looked at Helian Xi Chen. She felt that he seemed to have found out about something.

"I don't know, but since it's food poisoning, it's very likely that the medicine was mixed with something that shouldn't be there." The little girl was extremely sensitive. If she were to find out that he could read minds at this time, then the relationship between the two of them would once again be challenged.

"That's true. The empress dowager's legs were already fractured, and now that she's poisoned, it must've been hard on her." Luo Xue looked at the Empress Dowager's pained expression and was very worried.

When had the empress dowager ever suffered so much in her life, she felt bad for her. Besides, from the looks of things, the poison wouldn't act up anytime soon. It would be better if she could find the cure immediately, but if she couldn't, the empress dowager would suffer even more.

"Girl, you go with the imperial physician and see if there's any problems with the dregs." Helian Chen said to Luo Xue as he looked at the empress dowager who was almost unconscious on the bed.

"Alright, I'll do everything I can to help the imperial physician." Luo Xue took a deep breath.

"Your majesty, does the empress understand medicine?" Hui Fei asked puzzledly as she watched Luo Xue leave.

"This is not something you should be concerned about. If the empress dowager is poisoned, then all of you will be suspicious today. Thus, each of you should return to the palace. Without my orders, no one is allowed to leave your residences." Helian Yi glanced at the concubines in the hall and ordered solemnly.

"Your Majesty, when chenqie came …"

"Enough, leave the palace immediately. Whoever says another word will be sentenced to jail." Helian Yi said maliciously. The concubines did not utter another word as they lowered their heads and left the palace in small steps.

At this time, Luo Xue and the imperial physician were examining the dregs. The silver spoon was showing poison, but they couldn't tell what poison it was. The imperial physician could only bring the dregs back to the Imperial Physician Courtyard, while Luo Xue returned to the palace.

"Is the Empress Dowager better?" When Luo Xue saw Helian Chen still sitting in front of the bed, she was very worried.

"Just now, the imperial physician fed the empress dowager a pill so she could sleep. Did you guys find out the reason?" Helian Yi put down Her Majesty's hand and asked her.

So the imperial physician saw that the empress dowager was in pain, so he fed her some sleeping pills in hopes of alleviating her suffering.

"The imperial physician has already brought the dregs back to the Imperial Physician Courtyard. Although it's confirmed that there's poison, it'll be hard to find out what kind of poison it is in a short period of time." At this time, she especially missed the modern medical equipment. If it was in the modern era, perhaps she would have detected it long ago.

"Brother Wang, I'll leave this to you. If anything happens, report to the Grand Hospital. Empress and I will head over to the Grand Hospital first." Helian Yi Chen said to the palace.

Prince Cheng agreed and sat down on the empress dowager's bed. Looking at the empress dowager on the bed, Luo Xue's heart felt somewhat heavy. She allowed Helian Xi to hold her hand and lead her out.

"Your majesty, what if the empress dowager …"

"There's no such thing as a chance. The empress dowager was poisoned by mushroom poison and will definitely be able to find it in the dregs." Helian Yi said without waiting for Luo Xue to finish.

"How did you know it was poisonous mushrooms?" Luo Xue became increasingly confused, she pulled back her hand and stood on the spot while looking at Helian Xi.

"Have you forgotten my identity?" Helian Yi was stunned for a moment, then coughed lightly and said.

"Can you smell it? Then, you should be able to cure the poison, right? " Although Luo Xue realized that Helian Yi Chen was talking about his identity as a half demon, she still didn't dare to believe it. If it was really like this, then he should be able to explain it to her.

"I'm not a doctor. If it's really that amazing, then what's the use of having a doctor in this world?" Helian Yi Chen could not help but feel regret. He should not have let the little girl know. He believed that by this time, the imperial physician had already found out about it.

"You in front of me right now are so mystical. I don't really understand, but since you know what poison the empress dowager's been poisoned with, why didn't you just say it out loud and waste time searching for it with the imperial physician?" Do you know that this will delay the best time to cure the poison? " Luo Xue said unhappily.

"I also just found out that little girl shouldn't have such prejudice against me." I am also just a man. " Helian Yi Chen said helplessly.

Facing this little girl, he felt a sense of defeat. He knew that he had hurt her, but he didn't understand what she was thinking. Moreover, he didn't understand what she was thinking, so he was naturally prepared.

At the same time, I think you are very clear that you are not an ordinary man. Putting aside your birth, as the ruler of a country, you are destined to not be an ordinary man, so, don't make too many demands of me. I am not one of the women by your side. Luo Xue once again shook off Helian Yi Chen's hand. Even in modern times, it would still be awkward for a friend of the opposite sex to hold hands, let alone in this era where men and women were not close to each other.

It wasn't that she was being hypocritical, but that the man in front of her had concealed too much from the start and lied to her too much. Until now, she still couldn't treat him as a friend, much less a husband. The reason why he became the child's father was entirely due to an accident. If the shortened name was Helian Xi Chen, she would rather die in prison than go out with Guan Xiao Yin.

"Little girl, do you really have to strike me down like this? "You should …"

"To report to your majesty, the imperial physician has already found out that he was poisoned by goosebumps and is doing his best to concoct the antidote." Helian Yi Chen was about to explain when someone from the hospital came running over.

"Goose plaster poison? How is this possible? How could there be this kind of poisonous mushroom in the Imperial Palace? " Luo Xue cried out in alarm. The imperial palace's food had all passed through layers of checkpoints before entering, so how could there be this kind of poisonous mushroom? Moreover, it appeared in the empress dowager's medicinal food.

"Little girl, is this poison very powerful?" Seeing Luo Xue's expression, Helian Xi's mood became heavy.

"Yes, it is very poisonous and dangerous. The Goose-Plaster Poison can destroy people's liver and kidneys within a few days. People will be able to clearly feel the extreme pain coming from their body, until they pass out and die."

Luo Xue sighed. Fortunately, they were found in the palace and discovered it early. It was certain that the empress dowager's life wasn't in danger.

Fortunately, she was more hardworking when she was in school, so she could still remember a few things.

"Little girl, do you know how to cure the poison?" Helene's tight face finally relaxed.

"Imperial Physician, you should know better that this is the Imperial Palace. I believe that the Imperial Physician is already brewing medicine."

Luo Xue said as she changed directions. It seemed that the dinner at the Palace wouldn't last long, so it was better for her to go back. She had a body right now and needed to provide nutrition for both of them.

"Where are you going?" Helian Chen wanted to hold her hand, but she had already moved far away.

I'm a little tired and a little hungry, so I'll go back first. The best method to dispel the goosebumps poison is the Purple Ganoderma, I believe the Imperial Palace should have it. As long as you grind it into powder and use water to fry it, these imperial doctors should know their place. Luo Xue replied seriously.
