"Don't worry, my mother-in-law will be fine."
Compared to Gu Ling'er's worry, Lin Bai's face showed no change.
the reason is simple.
Because the little noble son died, the suspicion became greater, while the suspicion of the mother and concubine became smaller.
However, it was just revealed that Xiao Guizi died suddenly in the morning. What this means is somewhat intriguing.
Gu Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, but soon frowned again.
He murmured: "The second prince asked someone to find a husband yesterday, and something like this happened today. Is it possible that this is a coincidence?"
There are never any coincidences in this world. The so-called coincidences are just long-planned.
Gu Ling'er obviously didn't believe it, and looked at Lin Bai and said, "The second prince knew that there was something wrong with the little prince a long time ago? He might even know who was behind it, so he insisted on finding out the truth before appointing a new king?"
Lin Bai glanced at her with a smile on his face.
It has indeed become obvious.
Yesterday, Zhou Yinglong said that he would soon see the second prince's sincerity. Today, the suspicion of the mother-in-law has dropped directly. Although Gu Qianmo behaved as usual in the hall, just one look was enough to convince Lin Bai .
Shen Polu was puzzled: "If that's the case, why didn't the second prince expose it earlier?"
Gu Ling'er said coldly: "It's very simple, because his goal is not to find out the murderer, but the throne. He is waiting for us to come back, cooperate with my husband, save his mother and concubine, and at the same time obtain the support of the Shen family and the Chu family. In this way Come, then he will have hope."
Shen Polu nodded subconsciously.
It seems so.
Under the current situation, the second prince's hope was too slim.
Because of the Cui family's rebellion, many of the forces that had previously supported him had dissociated themselves from him or switched their allegiance to others. It would be too difficult for him to obtain a high position. Even if the murderer was found out, he might not have a chance with him.
So he is using this matter to make a fuss and try his best to gain support.
Gu Ling'er said angrily: "I knew who was doing the trick and didn't want to find out the murderer and avenge my father, but actually..."
Her eyes were cold and her silver teeth were faintly chattering.
The royal family has no family ties. This has been the case since ancient times. For the sake of that great position, they will do whatever it takes.
Lin Bai couldn't help but sigh and said, "Don't worry, my husband will definitely get to the bottom of this matter and won't let my father die in vain."
Gu Ling'er hummed, feeling quite touched.
Lin Bai added: "Moreover, it is too early to talk about this matter. At the moment, everything is just speculation and may not be true."
Lin Bai smiled and said nothing, only said to take a look first before talking.
At this time, a servant came in and said, "Princess Qi, Prince Consort, Doctor Liu is here."
Gu Ling'er immediately said: "Please come quickly!"
Although the suspicion of the mother and concubine has been reduced, in any case, Xiao Jiu's illness is all thanks to Divine Doctor Sun. Now that Divine Doctor Sun is in trouble, Gu Ling'er is naturally very concerned.
The same goes for Lindbergh.
He has always respected medical workers, not to mention that they were related to his mother and concubine.
In the side room, Dr. Liu diagnosed and treated Dr. Sun for a while, and then said: "Princess Qi, Prince Consort, Dr. Sun is too old and has been severely punished. Although his life is saved, when will he wake up?" Not sure either."
Gu Ling'er heard a flash of disappointment on his face.
Lin Bai didn't change much, he just said: "It doesn't matter, Dr. Liu will do his best."
"Thank you, Prince Consort, for your understanding."
Doctor Liu, who was originally a little trembling, seemed to be relieved when he heard this.
Although the imperial doctor sounds cool, to put it bluntly, he is just a doctor of the emperor's family. It's okay if nothing happens, but if something happens, he might end up dead.
Like this time, the late emperor was seriously ill and the doctors were helpless. I don't know how many imperial doctors were implicated.
He was still doing well and was not affected, but he was still walking on thin ice.
Lin Bai took a panoramic view of his performance and said with a smile: "Doctor Liu, there is no need to be nervous. Medical doctors can't cure diseases. There are too many strange diseases in the world, and there is nothing an imperial doctor can do about it."
Imperial Physician Liu agreed: "What the Prince Consort said is absolutely true. The late Emperor's illness was extremely strange."
Lin Bai asked casually: "How weird?"
Doctor Liu said: "The late emperor has been ill for some time. At first he suffered from headaches and insomnia, then convulsions, convulsions, and even hallucinations. The hospital has tried various methods, but there is still no effect."
"Divine Doctor Sun couldn't find the cause. He only said he suspected poisoning."
Poisoned?
Lin Bai's pupils shrank slightly.
A look of surprise appeared on Gu Ling'er's face, "Were you already poisoned at that time?"
Doctor Liu may have realized that he had let something slip, so he quickly said: "Princess, I just have suspicions, because none of the doctors in the Imperial Hospital and Divine Doctor Sun are unable to determine what kind of disease Your Majesty is suffering from, and the symptoms are somewhat similar to poisoning, so I just have private suspicions, forget it." Can’t count.”
"But from that time on, Divine Doctor Sun began to strictly check His Majesty's diet and medication. But unfortunately, His Majesty's condition still did not improve. Instead, it became more and more serious in the later stages."
"A lot of hair on the body fell off, and the nails fell off..."
"..."
"What did you say?"
Lin Bai's expression changed slightly.
Hair falling out? Nails falling off? As well as the previous symptoms, it reminded him of a famous case in his previous life, the case of Zhu Ling, a talented woman from Tsinghua University, who was poisoned by thallium.
These are the symptoms of thallium poisoning.
But, no one should be able to extract thallium in this era, right?
etc! The mother-in-law has never denied it, could it be...
Lin Bai's face instantly darkened. If anyone was to say who was most likely to extract thallium in this era, there was no doubt that it was his wife who was the fifth child in the science and engineering field.
So, what did the mother-in-law know? Is it the science girl she wants to protect?
But that’s not right! Li Gong Niang has no reason or reason to poison His Majesty Wu Chao.
good! It was impossible for the scientist's wife to poison him, but the origin of thallium was most likely related to her. That's why the mother-in-law never denied it and asked herself to find Dr. Sun just to find out the matter.
Someone took advantage of Lao Wu's research results.
mmp!
Lin Bai couldn't hold himself any longer, and his teeth chattered.
Gu Ling'er clearly noticed her husband's abnormality and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Bai did not rush to say anything, but asked Dr. Liu a few more questions. From his description, it was basically certain that His Majesty Wu Chao was poisoned by thallium.
However, if it was thallium poisoning, then what happened to the poison in the tea when His Majesty Wu Chao died?
According to Dr. Liu's description, His Majesty Wu Chao was obviously chronically poisoned, and the dosage was extremely small. In addition, the doctor had never seen this special poison, so there was no way to tell.
So, in addition to the people who cast thallium, there are other people who also want to kill His Majesty Wu Chao?
Are there two murderers behind this?
Lin Bai frowned, one person was troublesome enough, but another one appeared, and things became more and more complicated.
Who wants the life of His Majesty Wu Chao?
And you can also have access to the research results of science and engineering girls.
Lin Bai was thinking, and a place suddenly popped up in his mind, Tianli Academy.
