Zhou Lin insisted on not leaving the house, so Ye Sheng had to come by himself.

He wandered around the capital with the Imperial Guards given by Zhou Lin until sunset, but the matter of the remnants of the previous dynasty had not yet been resolved.

As time was getting closer, Ye Sheng became anxious.

Abandoning IQ, he asked: [System, do you think the remnants of the previous dynasty are hiding among the people I met this morning? ]

The system was silent for a while, [Host, do you believe you have this luck? ]

Ye Shengxin was silent for a while and clenched her fists.

[General Zhou is a third-rank official carefully selected by the emperor. He believes my somewhat outrageous words. I think I should believe in myself as well.]

[Perhaps the remnants of the previous dynasty will appear in General Zhou's mansion. ]

【What do you think? 】

System: […Do you need me to feel that? ]

Ye Shengxin didn't need it. She led hundreds of imperial guards back to the general's mansion in a mighty manner.

It happened that the steward of the general's mansion came out hurriedly, looking extremely anxious.

Ye Shengxin's eyelids twitched, and a bad premonition made her run into the general's mansion.

"Husband, the doctor will be here soon, just be patient, everything will be fine."

"Quick, bring the medicinal herbs stored in the mansion, in case of emergency."

Mrs. Zhou's anxious voice continued.

When Ye Xingxin came over, what he saw was General Zhou lying on the ground, holding his head with his arms, and his head kept banging against the ground because of unbearable pain.

How is this going?

His eyes quickly swept over Zhou Lin's body. Apart from the bruised and bleeding head, there were no signs of injury elsewhere.

"Master Ye is here."

Mrs. Zhou greeted him and looked back in her busy schedule.

The several royal guards who followed in did not capture anyone.

After a moment of disappointment, she had to cheer up and take care of her husband who suddenly had a headache.

Ye Shengxin nodded, then stood aside without saying anything.

She really didn't know how to help General Zhou, the only thing she could do was not to disturb him.

Zhou Lin recovered from the sudden pain and sat down with the help of his wife.

Although my head still hurts, it is still within the tolerable range.

He was not surprised that Ye Shengxin got nothing this afternoon.

For the time being, he didn't have time to care about the bad words Ye Shengxin said before he left at noon.

He just grabbed Ye Xingxin's wrist and asked with a heavy breath, "Master Ye, do you think the remnants of the previous dynasty will come to you again?"

It's the same sentence again.

Zhou Lin wanted her to nod, and Ye Shengxin naturally did as he wished.

Seeing that he was still so persistent in believing in her even though he was sick, Ye Xingxin said this very sincerely:

"General, rest assured. The deadline is approaching. This person has ulterior motives. If he is a high-ranking official who has some connection with the general's family, he will definitely find an excuse to come and investigate."

Ye Xingxin's voice became firm as he spoke: "Before dinner tonight, this man will definitely be caught by the law."

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhou Lin's face, which had turned pale due to the headache, showed a relieved smile.

"That's good."

Zhou Lin fainted as soon as his mind relaxed.

Ye Xingxin: ...The general really believes in me!

At this moment, the housekeeper found the doctor and came back.

It was Wang Cheng, the imperial physician who was criticized by Ye Shengxin for being mean and ungrateful.

While Wang Cheng was treating the patient, the housekeeper reported that on his way to find the doctor, he met Doctor Wang, who had forgotten to put down the ointment at noon and had returned to deliver the ointment to the general, so he invited him over.

As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings fell into an eerie silence.

Mrs. Zhou still remembered what Ye Shengxin had just said, and at this moment she saw Doctor Wang treating her husband.

She shook her head.

She was also confused. How could she believe Ye Shengxin's compliments?

Only her husband, who was not in his right mind, could be so firm.

Ye Shengxin was stunned and screamed the system in his heart.

[System, based on how much General Zhou trusts me, will he arrest this guy who came to his door twice when he wakes up?]

[Hahaha, this person who looks down on me is a remnant of the previous dynasty, or an imperial physician. Isn't this a bit outrageous? ]

[Do you think the Emperor believes it? ]

System: [The emperor will definitely not believe it, but General Zhou is desperate and might be able to pin the crime on this person.]

Ye Xingxin was stunned, [Can it be like this? ]

[Isn't this a bad idea? After all, Doctor Wang did save General Zhou.]

[General Zhou doesn't look like someone who would repay kindness with enmity.]

System: [You are at the scene anyway, just wait and see what happens next. ]

[That’s true. ]

In the palace, Emperor Jingming came out of Princess Thirteen's palace and heard the last blow from Ye Shengxin.

He closed his eyes.

It turned out to be him.

If he remembered correctly, Yun'er had been ill for some time, and it was Doctor Wang who was responsible for her recovery.

The horse was not frightened, but Yun'er suddenly fainted and fell off the horse.

He didn't think it was all due to Ye Shengxin's bad luck. It was possible that Yun'er had problems with her health before this.

For example, poisoning.

Now, because of Ye Shengxin, this hidden danger has erupted ahead of time.

The remnant of the previous dynasty, Doctor Wang, is the culprit.

"Your Majesty, according to what you said, after careful investigation, I found that the Thirteenth Princess was indeed poisoned."

The head of the Imperial Medical Bureau came out from the hall and reported respectfully.

At the same time, cold sweat rose from the skin layer by layer.

He thought that if the emperor had not reminded him, he and his colleagues would have most likely made the mistake, which would have led to the Thirteenth Princess' death due to untimely treatment.

He felt as if he saw all nine of his clansmen picking up hoes and digging graves.

He took a breath and said, "Once this poison enters the body, it is difficult for people to detect it. I was fortunate enough to see it when I was reading a rare copy a few days ago. Although I haven't studied it thoroughly, I know that this poison originated from the previous dynasty."

"It disappeared for more than a hundred years, and now it has appeared in the Thirteenth Princess. I beg Your Majesty to let us treat the many nobles in the palace to prevent..."

The head of the Imperial Medical Bureau could not continue.

Those who poisoned the Thirteenth Princess were certainly hateful, but that was not entirely due to their incompetence.

It was not noticed earlier that there was something wrong with Princess Thirteen's health.

The head of the Imperial Medical Bureau was ashamed and frightened. He lowered his head and dared not look directly at the emperor.

Emperor Jingming calmly ordered: "We will discuss the treatment for the nobleman tomorrow. You should go to Zhou Lin's mansion immediately. He is also in poor health."

"If you meet Wang Cheng there, be careful."

Emperor Jingming gave a reminder.

The head of the Imperial Medical Bureau has been dealing with nobles for so long, so there is nothing he doesn't understand.

He immediately left in a hurry with the medicine box.

At the General's Mansion, after Wang Cheng's diagnosis and treatment, he prescribed a prescription and boiled medicine based on the existing medicinal materials.

When the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau arrived outside the general's mansion, he placed a cup of tea, and Wang Cheng brought the drinkable medicine to Zhou Lin's bedside.

"Help the general up. It's time for him to take his medicine."

The voice was steady but contained a hidden and uncontrollable excitement.

Aren’t you looking for the remnants of the previous dynasty?

I came to your house twice, and you caught me!

Ye Xingxin: [System, do you think this medicine is drinkable? ]

[If this Imperial Doctor Wang is a remnant of the previous dynasty, General Zhou might have to go to the West Heaven to discuss Taoism with the Buddha after drinking the medicine.]
