After Transmigration, I Snag a Stunning Bigwig as My Husband-Chapter 815 - 813: Dissipation

Eunuch Fu was in a panic.

If the Emperor had truly prepared the rewards only for the Princess to be punished, the Emperor would surely vent his anger on him upon seeing those rewards.

It was now too late to turn back and tell the Emperor otherwise.

Hopefully, Princess Consort Zhenbei will get through this safely.

Inside Yongning Palace.

Upon hearing from the palace attendants that Princess Qi had gone to Prince Zhenbei Mansion to apologize and ended up being poisoned and carried back to the mansion unconscious, the Empress Dowager was furious.

So many people considered it to be Su Jin’s doing, so how could the Empress Dowager not suspect the same?

Especially since Princess Qi was always careful in her actions. If she went to apologize herself, she wouldn’t have said anything rash.

Previously, when Princess Shouning was carried back to the palace, at least it could be excused as her provoking at the door.

But Princess Qi went to apologize!

The Empress Dowager was already worried about Princess Duanhui’s matter, and now Su Jin had walked right into her path, so the Empress Dowager would certainly not spare her.

The Empress Dowager was very angry.

Nanny Li looked at the Empress Dowager and advised, "Empress Dowager, please calm down. This is a good thing. Don’t let anger harm your health."

"A good thing?!" The Empress Dowager laughed in anger.

Princess Consort Zhenbei, acting so recklessly, is a good thing?!

Nanny Li looked at the Empress Dowager and said, "Princess Qi was poisoned and fainted by Princess Consort Zhenbei. With the Duke’s strategy, we can definitely keep the Eldest Princess safe."

The Empress Dowager realized—

Her anger intensified.

To protect Princess Duanhui, the bigger this issue was made, the better.

Forcing the Emperor to severely punish Princess Consort Zhenbei, the Emperor would then spare Princess Duanhui to protect his daughter.

In her fury, the Empress Dowager thrust Su Jin into the spotlight.

Princess Qi was still unconscious.

The Imperial Physician was at a loss.

The Empress Dowager issued a decree, ordering Su Jin to detoxify Princess Qi.

Nanny Li personally went to the Prince Mansion to deliver the decree.

Su Jin frowned tightly.

Xingxing stood nearby, her little face filled with guilt.

She had caused great trouble for her mistress.

The Empress Dowager conveyed her orders verbally, without any interrogation, directly blaming the poisoning on Su Jin.

Although she had not poisoned Princess Qi, Xingxing had in fact thrown a poisonous parasite on her, which was an undeniable fact.

Su Jin sat there without moving, and Nanny Li urged, "Please hurry, Princess. A moment’s delay, and if anything happens to Princess Qi, this matter will be hard to contain."

Su Jin secretly rolled her eyes. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

This situation was already hard to contain, wasn’t it!

But with no one dead, there was still a chance.

Su Jin rose and followed Nanny Li to Prince Qi Mansion.

Xingxing followed behind.

Knowing she was in trouble, the maid no longer had her previous spirited demeanor.

Xie Jingchen accompanied Su Jin to Prince Qi Mansion.

She had just stepped into the mansion when she saw Doctor Li coming out with his medicine box.

He was so lost in thought while walking that he didn’t see Su Jin.

Su Jin called out, "Doctor Li?"

Doctor Li was startled.

"What had Doctor Li so deep in thought?" Su Jin asked.

Doctor Li hurriedly greeted Su Jin and then replied, "The poison in Princess Qi is extremely strange, something unheard of. I was just lost in thought."

"In what way is it strange?" Su Jin asked.

"The poison in Princess Qi is gradually dissipating, and her pulse is slowly improving," Doctor Li replied.

"..."

Su Jin was a bit stunned.

What kind of poison was this?

Nanny Li furrowed her eyebrows and said, "Could it be that the medicine prescribed by the Imperial Physician has taken effect?"

"I don’t think so," Doctor Li shook his head and said.

"The medicine prescribed by the Imperial Physician hadn’t even been brewed or taken, yet Princess Qi’s pulse started to improve."

These symptoms were unheard of by Doctor Li and also baffled the Imperial Physicians in the Imperial Hospital.

If the poison was dissipating, did they still need to administer the medicine?

But without administering the medicine, no one knew if the poison in Princess Qi could be eliminated on its own.

Moreover, they couldn’t detoxify the poison anyway.

"Let’s go take a look," Xie Jingchen said.

Su Jin was also a bit eager.

She was interested in rare and difficult medical cases.

With the maid guiding, Su Jin entered Princess Qi’s room.

Just as she entered, she received a cold stare, Mo Chengxian gritted his teeth and said, "I only snatched a flower lantern from you, and the Emperor also stripped me of my Commandery Princess title!"

"My mother went to apologize to you, why did you poison her?!"

Xingxing stepped forward and said, "My lady did not poison Princess Qi, I..."

Su Jin raised her hand to interrupt Xingxing.

This silly girl, bold and daring.

But Princess Qi was poisoned, such a big matter is not something a maid can bear.

No one would believe that a maid dared to poison a princess without her master’s prompting.

Su Jin looked at Mo Chengxian and said, "It seems Miss Mo has evidence proving that I poisoned Princess Qi?"

Miss Mo...

Mo Chengxian wished she could have Su Jin dragged away and skinned alive.

Would she have been demoted if not for her?!

Never in her life had she been called Miss Mo!

Doctor Zhao hurried over and said, "Whatever it is, it’s not too late to discuss it after we’ve detoxified Princess Qi."

Mo Chengxian, with a cold expression, was pulled away by a maid.

Su Jin walked to the bedside and saw the unconscious Princess Qi.

However, Princess Qi’s lips were not the purple color she had heard about; they were quite rosy.

It looked as if she were merely asleep.

Su Jin sat on the stool and took Princess Qi’s pulse.

After checking the pulse, Su Jin frowned and said, "Where’s the poison?"

She looked towards Doctor Zhao and another imperial physician.

Su Jin stood up.

Doctor Zhao quickly checked Princess Qi’s pulse, exclaiming in surprise, "The poison is indeed neutralized."

"In less than half an hour, Princess Qi will wake up."

Su Jin looked at Nanny Li.

Nanny Li’s brow furrowed deeply.

How could she be poisoned and then be cured without any treatment?

She looked towards Prince Qi.

Prince Qi’s brows were also tightly knit.

Nanny Li was certain that her guess was correct, that Princess Qi being poisoned was part of the plan to rescue Princess Duanhui.

Mo Chengxian glared at Su Jin and said, "You must have poisoned my mother and then, out of fear, cured her!"

Su Jin rolled her eyes, "I understand you don’t know medical skills, but if you slander me again, I won’t be polite."

Mo Chengxian clenched her fists tightly.

Doctor Zhao hurriedly said, "The poison that afflicted the Princess takes time to act; if the antidote is taken before the poison manifests, it won’t show."

After leaving the Agarwood Pavilion, Princess Qi had stayed at Princess Nanzhang’s place for quite a while and was personally seen out of the residence by Princess Nanzhang.

During this time, Su Jin never appeared before Princess Qi again.

"There is also another possibility, that after being poisoned, someone gave Princess Qi the antidote," Su Jin said.

The physicians looked at each other.

In fact, they hadn’t disregarded this possibility.

But they all knew that after Princess Qi was poisoned, only Princess Nanzhang and her maid were with her.

Only the poisoner would have the antidote.

If that’s the case, did Princess Qi poison herself or was it Princess Nanzhang?

Princess Nanzhang trembled with anger, "Are you suspecting that I poisoned Princess Qi?"

Looking at her face, there wasn’t the slightest guilt.

Su Jin ruled out Princess Nanzhang’s suspicion, innocently saying, "I didn’t say that."

"I don’t know who poisoned Princess Qi, but one thing is certain, it wasn’t me."

Even before becoming a princess, she dared to have Princess Shouning carried back to the palace.

With such courage, is it likely she would poison Princess Qi and then timidly administer an antidote?

Su Jin spoke with confidence.

Princess Nanzhang’s anger had no outlet, and as long as Su Jin suspected her, she would be relentless in her pursuit.

Xingxing stared blankly at Su Jin.

Her brain was completely unable to comprehend now.

If Princess Qi vomited blood because of the parasite.

Then how was she detoxified?

Surely the parasite didn’t first poison and then detoxify itself?

With Princess Qi detoxified, there was no reason for Su Jin to stay.

She turned to leave.

No one spoke along the way.

Xingxing didn’t dare to speak.

Xie Jingchen had nothing to say.

He thought it was a very difficult matter, but it turned out to be all thunder and no rain...

After getting in the carriage, Xingxing shrank into a corner, cautiously watching Su Jin, fearing she would scold her.

Su Jin stared at Xingxing.

Xingxing panicked, the more she watched Su Jin hesitate, the more she feared she was considering selling her, and tears welled up in her eyes, she rushed over, hugging Su Jin’s legs and cried, "Miss, I will definitely listen from now on, please don’t sell me..."

Su Jin rubbed her forehead, "Sell you?"

"You did a great job again."

Xingxing, "...???"
