Chapter 188 Testify
After a moment, he withdrew his hand, saluted to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Miss Ye has indeed been poisoned. If the poison attacks five times, she will die. This is the fourth time. When she came to see me two days ago, I remember she took an antidote."
After hearing this, Lady Mu looked at the maidservant who was serving Ye Qingyan and asked, "Where's the antidote? Did you bring it with you, Miss?"
"Mom, I have it. It's around my daughter's waist..."
Ye Qingyan was waiting for Doctor Yue to finish telling all this before she spoke despite the pain all over her body.
I don’t know why this time the poison attack is a little different from previous ones.
Now as long as she takes the antidote she will be fine.
Lady Mu, the Duke of Mu, quickly reached out and felt around Ye Qingyan's waist, and soon found the antidote and asked her to take it.
But after a cup of tea, Ye Qingyan first spit out a mouthful of blood, and then stopped struggling. After a while, she opened her eyes.
She didn't expect why this time the poison attack was so uncomfortable. It was completely different from the previous times.
When she gradually regained consciousness, she felt a stinging pain on her face. She glanced at her bloody palms, which still had traces of flesh on their nails.
Only then did he remember what he had just done. His expression began to become a little horrified and unbelievable. His eyes widened, he raised his hands to hold his head and began to scream.
"Ah~ah~ah..." How could she accept that she was disfigured.
Lady Mu quickly pulled the man back and reprimanded him in a low voice, "The emperor is still here, you must not lose your composure. We'll ask a doctor to look at the wound on your face when we get back. Now we should quickly settle the matter of the Regent Princess poisoning you."
Ye Qingyan was shaking all over for a long time and couldn't calm down. Her teeth were clenched, her eyes were bloodshot, and the blood on her face made her look extremely scary.
At this time, the emperor looked at Ye Qingyan and then at Chu Qianyu, and asked with some doubt: "Miss Ye said that it was the Regent Princess who poisoned you, but the Regent Princess has not admitted it yet. Does Miss Ye have any other evidence?"
Ye Qingyan glared at Chu Qianyu, then replied, "Your Majesty, what I just said is absolutely true. I have no reason to harm myself like this. It was the Regent Princess who was jealous of me and ordered someone to poison me. It was in the Document Pavilion that day. Many young ladies saw it."
After finishing speaking, he glanced around and continued, "Some of them are here today. Your Majesty can ask them if it was Clan Leader Situ who first called me into the Document Pavilion alone and then left, leaving me and the Regent Princess alone. It was then that she poisoned me."
Then he pointed to the two maids beside Chu Qianyu and said, "They were also there at the time."
After listening to this, the emperor looked at the officials and female relatives standing behind him.
But no one stood up.
So he asked, "Does anyone here testify for Miss Ye?"
The princess glanced at Shuang Ning and Shao Ying and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you order someone to take the two maids beside the Regent Princess away for interrogation and we'll know the answer."
Chu Qianyu changed her panic at this moment, looked at the princess calmly and asked: "What do you mean, princess? Are you planning to torture my maid to extract a confession?"
"Oh! I'm just asking. Why is the Regent Princess so anxious? Did you really do something wrong?"
Chu Qianyu turned to look at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, if I heard correctly, Miss Ye also said that Patriarch Situ was also involved. You can ask her here."
After hearing this, the princess covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed. Then she said, "Can you invite Patriarch Situ just because you want to? Who do you think you are?"
Chu Qianyu glanced at the eldest princess, and a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes: "To be honest, I happen to have some friendship with the head of the Situ clan. If she knew that I was framed here today, she would definitely come to help me."
"How dare you say that." The eldest princess shook her head and sneered.
"It is indeed not easy to invite the head of the Situ clan, but I also received news earlier that she would come later to represent the Situ clan to mourn the Queen Mother. Now it seems that the time is almost here."
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, he saw Situ Yue walking slowly towards him not far away.
Mo Yinan watched the person approach from afar, and his expression and appearance were almost exactly the same. If he didn't know that Situ Yue was already dead, he would probably think that the person in front of him was Situ Yue. Although the person in front of him was fake, his heart still ached.
She looked a little dazed.
He felt the hand in his palm move slightly, and then he remembered that he and Chu Qianyu were still holding hands tightly together. She looked at him with a hint of reproach in her eyes.
Mo Yinan then turned his head and looked away.
Situ Yue stepped forward and nodded slightly toward the emperor. The patriarch of the Situ clan never had to perform grand ceremony to the emperor.
Then he asked, "Your Majesty, what happened? Why is there such a chaotic scene in the palace?"
"You came just in time. Miss Ye just said that the Regent Princess had poisoned her in the Document Pavilion before, and you were the one who called her in that day. Is this true?"
When Situ Yue heard the emperor say this, she immediately frowned and looked at Ye Qingyan and asked, "When did the Regent Princess poison you? I was there the whole time, so why didn't I see it? Why did you frame the Regent Princess?"
Ye Qingyan shook her head and looked at Patriarch Situ in disbelief. She didn't expect that Patriarch Situ would be so biased towards Chu Qianyu.
"Patriarch Situ, you can't help the Regent Princess just because you have a good relationship with her. It was you who called me up first, and then you left. It was when you left that the Regent Princess poisoned me. How can you say that you were there at the time?"
Situ Yue took a step forward, her aura gradually turned colder, her eyes flashed with a hint of danger, and she said in a low voice: "Miss Ye, do you mean that I lied?"
Ye Qingyan was so frightened that she stepped back unconsciously, shivering all over. She even felt like she was suffocating just now.
Lady Mu Guogong said quickly, "Please forgive me, Patriarch Situ. I was in a hurry and said the wrong thing."
"Humph!"
Situ Yue snorted coldly, turned around and looked at Doctor Yue beside him, as if he was a little confused: "Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to go to Dongyang Mountain first?"
Doctor Yue lowered his head with a guilty look on his face and stepped back.
The eldest princess was also a little confused at this time. Could it be that Doctor Yue was acquainted with Patriarch Situ?
After Patriarch Situ's rebuttal to Ye Qingyan, she decided not to help out anymore. It seemed that this matter today would not be accomplished. So she took two steps back to reduce her presence as much as possible.
But unexpectedly, Mo Yinan stared at her and said, "Why is the eldest princess hiding? If I remember correctly, it was you who called Doctor Yue. Why don't you explain to Patriarch Situ where you found this person."
Seeing that she was discovered, the princess no longer hid. She raised her head and chest and said to the nanny behind her: "Go and tell them where you invited the Moon God Doctor from?"
After the nanny accepted the offer and bowed to everyone, she said, "I know that Divine Doctor Yue will be at Yue Xin Hall whenever she is here, so I went there earlier. But before I got there, I ran into Divine Doctor Yue who was about to go out, so I happened to invite him over."
