Early this morning, Cui Yan hurried into the palace to diagnose You Yusui's pulse, and then told You Yusui what happened yesterday.

"Yesterday, Princess Yan put this silk handkerchief full of chronic poison and gave it to me in this sachet." Cui Yan put the sachet of the pale pink embroidered orchid that she received yesterday in front of You Yusui. On the table, "I found a medicinal herb that I smelled on His Highness in this chronic poison - Qinglan."

"Qinglan is a medicinal material with comprehensive medicinal properties. It is rare and rare. I have read all the prescriptions that His Highness has used, and none of them have used Qinglan." Cui Yan continued with a serious expression.

The smell of an unusable medicinal material suddenly tainted You Yusui's body, which made people think deeply. This medicine must rely on the connection between Qinglan's comprehensive medicinal properties of chronic poison and the crown prince.

"Someone gave medicine to His Highness the Crown Prince? His Highness the Crown Prince is now..." Huo Xiling frowned tightly, his whole body tensed up, and he unconsciously grabbed the weapon at his waist.

"Nothing." Cui Yan said, "If it was really poisoned, I would have diagnosed it a long time ago."

Moreover, it will never be as lively as it is now.

You Yusui, who looked very emaciated and could actually beat two cows, couldn't help asking, "Then why do I have Qinglan's breath?"

Fu Bao took care of his food, and Cui Yan would come to check his pulse every day. If he was really poisoned, he should have been discovered long ago.

"What Xie Tan and I guessed is that someone started to poison His Highness when His Highness was seriously ill and unconscious, and they still put the poison on the utensils that His Highness often touches." Cui Yan said slowly.

"This poison can actually be placed on the utensils that are often touched?" Huo Xiling frowned tightly, "Isn't it impossible to guard against it?"

If one person in the East Palace has a different intention, then this person can smear the medicine on the things You Yusui often uses at any time, and Huo Xiling can't help but feel murderous towards the person behind the scenes.

When You Yusui heard Cui Yan's words, he suddenly realized something. No wonder he was in poor health in the previous dozen or so lifetimes. It turned out to be like this.

Except for this life, he replaced the people around him with You Fengyun's people, and replaced all the ornaments in the East Palace with the best and most expensive ones, so he was not poisoned in this life.

"Today, apart from telling His Highness these things, I also want to go to His Highness's private treasury to look for utensils that His Highness used to often use, hoping to find something that was poisoned." Cui Yan said.

If you can find the poisoned decorations and utensils, you can know which palace people often take care of them, and then follow the clues to find out the murderer behind the scenes.

Just when You Yusui, Huo Xiling and Cui Yan were all thinking this way, Grand Master Gu came with anger, and several people were chasing after him.

With a bang, the closed door was kicked open, and Eunuch Fubao, who was guarding the door, was so frightened that his heart beat wildly.

"Teacher, why are you here?" Eunuch Fubao asked openly.

"My surname is Gu, I tell you, don't bully my grandson!" Xie Xie who came from behind grabbed Gu Shen.

"Can't I ask for an explanation?" Gu Shen and Xie Yi tugged, "You all have rice dumplings made by him, but I don't! Is there such a reason? He just doesn't respect the teacher if he speaks out!"

After hearing this, You Yusui and Huo Xiling looked at each other, it's over, he really forgot to send zongzi to Grand Master Gu!

"I compiled books for him diligently over there, and now I can't even eat a zongzi, does he have me as a teacher in his heart?" Grand Master Gu said loudly, while saying and thanking him.

"Grandpa, teacher, why don't you two let go first." You Yusui, who was sitting in the room, said tentatively.

However, as soon as You Yusui finished speaking, the two people who were over fifty years old fell to the ground together.

You Yusui was shocked and hurriedly said, "Hurry up and help people."

So, the four young people hurriedly helped Xie Yi and Gu Shen up, while You Yusui asked them if they had fallen somewhere.

After they helped Xie Yi and Gu Shen to the chairs, You Yusui poured a glass of water for each of them, and then said: "You two are so old, why are you still acting like children."

Gu Shen heard that while clutching the teacup in his hand, he glared at You Yusui: "You still dare to laugh, do you see me as a teacher in your eyes?"

The next moment, Gu Shen was patted thankfully and said: "Don't be cruel."

After the words fell, Gu Shen stared angrily.

"It's my fault that I didn't prepare the zongzi I made for the teacher. I'll make it now, shall I?" You Yusui obediently looked at the angry Grand Master Gu, trying to pretend to be obedient.

Gu Shen snorted coldly and said, "Then hurry up."

"Where's mine?" Thank you on the side looking at You Yusui expectantly.

"Give it to grandpa too." You Yusui replied quickly.

Afterwards, You Yusui took Huo Xiling to the kitchen, where the two elders happily waited to eat the freshly cooked zongzi.

After Xie Tan and Cui Yan looked at each other, they walked out of the room very tacitly.

Under the pear tree in the courtyard, Cui Yan asked, "Why are you here?"

"Grandfather chased Grand Master Gu into the palace, and I followed him because I was worried about something going wrong." Xie Tan asked after answering, "Your Highness knows."

"You came here when you were about to check the warehouse, but it's good, you can deceive people." Cui Yan said, "Let the prince ask Mr. Fu Bao to take me to the warehouse to take a look."

"Okay, then I'll go to the Shang Yamen." Xie Tan turned and left after speaking.

In the kitchen at this time, You Yusui and Huo Xiling were making zongzi with unused glutinous rice yesterday.

Huo Xiling made the zong leaves into a funnel shape, and You Yusui put glutinous rice and marinated pork belly in it, and then Huo Xiling wrapped them with ropes. These are the zongzi made by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself.

After making more than a dozen zongzi, You Yusui thought it was enough and asked people to boil it.

"Gu will never forget the Grand Master again." You Yusui sighed, even if he forgot, he would rush to the East Palace to settle accounts with him, it was terrible.

Huo Xiling kissed Yu Yusui's forehead and said, "I will help His Highness remember it from now on."

"You?" You Yusui looked up at Huo Xiling who had grown taller in front of him, and finally thought about it and picked his chin with his feet.

Huo Xiling was very cooperative and tried to lift his chin, but finally found that their eyes were not matching.

Huo Xiling tried his best to hold back his laughter, and then said: "Your Highness, why don't you stand on the bench."

You Yusui: ...I warn you, don't go too far.

Then, You Yusui kicked over the small bench, and also kicked Huo Xiling's leg, before running away.

Huo Xiling was stunned, looked at You Yusui's back and couldn't help shouting: "Your Highness!"

But what You Yusui thought was that Gu had never been as embarrassed as he is today.

The rice dumplings here have already been boiled, and Cui Yan and Fu Bao over there have already entered the warehouse after everyone's eyes were attracted by Xie Yi and Gu Shen.

The warehouse in the East Palace is very large. It is filled with the fief taxes and dowries that You Yusui received after being crowned prince. There are countless rare treasures. It can be said to be ordinary.

"Doctor Cui, please take a look, the things His Highness used before are placed there." Eunuch Fubao pointed to the ornaments on that place.

"What has accompanied His Highness the longest? His Highness also used it the most?" Cui Yan didn't want to find a needle in a haystack, so he asked Fu Bao directly.

Although Fubao didn't know why the prince let him secretly take Cui Yan into the private treasury to find something, but what the prince did must have his own deep meaning, so Fubao said without hesitation: "That Boshan furnace, that inkstone, and That paperweight, and that pen holder."

"These things have been used by His Highness before." Eunuch Fubao said to Cui Yan.

Cui Yan first picked up the Boshan furnace, and then carefully sniffed the smell on it.

"What's wrong with this Boshan furnace?" Father Fubao couldn't help asking nervously when he saw this.

"Is this Boshan stove placed in the inner room where His Highness sleeps?" Cui Yan asked.

"Exactly, His Highness burns his favorite snowy spring letter every day, and this Boshan furnace is placed in the inner room every day to infect the room." Mr. Fubao said openly.

Cui Yan uncovered the Boshan furnace, scratched the inner wall of the Boshan furnace with his fingers, and then put his fingers into his lips and tongue.

"Doctor Cui, what's the matter?" Eunuch Fubao was about to die of anxiety seeing this.

"Try to burn a little snowy spring letter." Cui Yan handed the Boshan stove to Fubao Gonggong.

"Okay." Eunuch Fubao immediately took out the snowy spring letter from the warehouse, and then lit it in the Boshan furnace.

I saw the green smoke rising, and the smell of plum blossoms soon filled the whole room, but the fragrance of plum blossoms contained a green orchid fragrance that ordinary people could not detect at all.

Cui Yan opened his eyes, then looked at the Boshan furnace in front of him and said: "Someone used the Boshan furnace to poison His Highness."

Eunuch Fubao was horrified when he heard the words. He looked at the Boshan furnace with horror in his eyes. He was guarding the East Palace. He never thought that someone would take advantage of such a loophole. Fortunately, this Boshan furnace was replaced early, otherwise he would be His Royal Highness was harmed!

"Put out the incense." Cui Yan said.

"Okay." Eunuch Fubao quickly extinguished the incense.

Cui Yan can be sure that this Boshan furnace can still emit the smell of green orchids, and the poison has already been quenched into the Boshan furnace.

"What should Dr. Cui do now?" Eunuch Fubao asked.

"Look for someone, the person who was in charge of taking care of the Boshan furnace before." Cui Yan replied.

Eunuch Fubao immediately said: "I'll go check the file and see who is managing the Boshan Furnace."

After finishing speaking, Eunuch Fubao was about to go out, but Cui Yan held him with one hand and said, "Don't worry, now go and eat the zongzi made by His Highness himself."

"Huh?" Eunuch Fubao was at a loss.

Over there, You Yusui had brought the zongzi made by himself to Xie Yi and Gu Shen.

"Grandfather and teacher, please use it." You Yusui said obediently.

Seeing this, Gu Shen immediately picked up the rice dumpling and began to unravel the multicolored silk threads on it, and after peeling off the rice dumpling leaves, he couldn't wait to take a bite.

"Yue! Why meat dumplings!" Gu Shen almost vomited after taking a bite.

You Yusui sneered, because only meat dumplings are allowed in the East Palace!

The author has something to say:

You Yusui: I found myself getting shorter.

Huo Xiling: It's not that you have become shorter, it's that I have grown taller.

You Yusui: Shut up.

Huo Xiling: oh
