Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The Emperors complexion deepened into a shade of crimson, his accusatory gaze locked on Imperial Physician Yang. He seethed, It was you who a.s.sured me back then that it wasnt a significant concern, that it could be remedied with medication!

Imperial Physician Yang, trembling with fear under the Emperors wrath, attempted to clarify his stance. At that time, Your Majesty, the condition wasnt particularly severe. Just yesterday, I examined your pulse, and it didnt appear dire. Im baffled by the sudden seriousness of it.

Qin Zhenzhen interjected, If youd like, I can explain the reason, Your Majesty.

The Emperor, his expression dark and brooding, reluctantly granted permission. Speak!

Qin Zhenzhen extended a pointed finger toward Beauty Jiang and implicated,

The credit for this situation lies with her!

Beauty Jiang paled noticeably, though she made a concerted effort to maintain composure. Your Majesty

The Empress Dowager intervened firmly, commanding, Silence!

Under the Empress Dowagers authority, Beauty Jiang dared not utter another word.

Your Majesty, why dont you recount to Imperial Physician Yang and the others what dishes Beauty Jiang served you this afternoon? What fruits did you consume? The eunuch standing beside the Emperor hastily listed the foods that had graced the Emperors table at Beauty Jiangs residence.

As the imperial physicians comprehended that the Emperors yang energy hypertension had worsened due to consuming incompatible foods simultaneously, a collective realization washed over them. It was now evident that the Emperors condition had escalated because of dietary choices!

Upon learning this explanation, the Emperor directed a furious glare at Beauty Jiang.

Overwhelmed with fear, Beauty Jiang knelt on the floor, her entire frame trembling. Your Majesty, please, allow me to explain It was an inadvertent oversight..

Qin Zhenzhens tone bore a hint of mockery as she remarked, Its rather amusing to attribute this to an unintentional mistake when a member of the Jiang family, known for their culinary and medical expertise, is involved!

Beauty Jiang made a desperate attempt to slap her own face once more, her voice choked with sobs. Your Majesty, I admit my wrongdoing. I should never have resorted to such methods to gain your favor. But its only because of my deep love for you..

Qin Zhenzhen, unwilling to indulge further theatrics, cut Beauty Jiang off.

No need for any more pretense! The imperial physicians at the Imperial Hospital are not fools! Your motives are crystal clear, and the consequences are apparent to all.

Your actions were never driven by love for the Emperor but rather by a sinister intent to harm him!

Qin Zhenzhen turned to Imperial Physician Yang, seeking his affirmation. Isnt that right, Imperial Physician Yang?

The Empress Dowager fixed a stern gaze on Imperial Physician Yang, urging him to speak the truth.

Imperial Physician Yang concurred, stating, If the Emperor continues to consume conflicting foods and engages in s.e.xual activity due to heightened excitement, toxins will acc.u.mulate in his body. Over time, he will indeed fall seriously ill, and there will be no remedy.

The Emperor felt a s.h.i.+ver run down his spine upon hearing this dire prognosis.

But, if the issue is addressed promptly, and if it hasnt persisted for too long, there is hope for a complete recovery, Imperial Physician Yang added, offering a glimmer of relief.

The Emperor, aware of his routine visits to Beauty Jiangs chambers for meals and daytime trysts, hoped fervently that his condition could be reversed within a month.

Imperial Physician Yang continued his explanation, shedding light on the complexities of diagnosing symptoms caused by conflicting foods.

The difficulty in identifying such symptoms, resulting from the ingestion of incompatible foods, is why I initially dismissed any concerns.

He proposed a solution, I suggest that Your Majesty thoroughly examine all the dishes youve consumed at Beauty Jiangs residence to determine if theres a pattern or if its mere coincidence.

Prompted by the Emperors concern, the eunuch in attendance swiftly retrieved a small notebook, ready to a.s.sist in recording the details.

Your Majesty, these are the dishes regularly served at Beauty Jiangs residence, the eunuch confirmed, presenting the small book.

The Empress Dowager promptly instructed, Pa.s.s the notebook to Imperial

Physician Yang.

As Imperial Physician Yang and the other physicians prepared to examine the contents of the notebook, Beauty Jiang, overwhelmed by the revelation, crumpled to the ground.

Her actions had been laid bare for all to see, and the grim consequences awaiting her were unmistakable a fate sealed by her own deceit..
