The voice seemed to mix with an indescribable chill.

Even the angry Emperor felt his wrath subside a bit as he turned his head to look toward the door, only to see Shaohua, who should have been outside, already inside.

"Make way," Shaohua took out the golden needles left to her by Ye Bozhong.

The golden needles of Ye Bozhong were naturally recognized by the Imperial Physicians present and the Emperor himself, for they had been passed down in the Ye Family generation after generation, handed down by the Imperial Physician himself.

The Emperor didn’t know why, but as he looked at Shaohua’s confidence, he thought of his fourth son.

Rather than directing his anger at Shaohua, he stood up and made room for her instead.

It was Shaohua who had cured Chu Yunmo with the Yin Yang Nine Needles Technique back then, and her medical skills had improved even more since. Though the Empress Dowager’s illness was tricky, it was no problem for her to remove a third of the poison in one attempt.

Liao Mingxin had absolutely no belief in the ancient art of acupuncture.

Seeing Shaohua take out the golden needles, even though she was in a disadvantaged situation, she couldn’t help but reveal a mocking smile.

Shaohua had someone help the Empress Dowager sit up; the Empress Dowager had been lying down for months, and her body was not as strong as before. However, it was Liao Mingxin who, although accidentally causing the accumulation of poisonous gas in the Empress Dowager’s body to erupt, had inadvertently helped the Empress Dowager’s constitution to recover somewhat.

Otherwise, the Empress Dowager wouldn’t be able to withstand the Yin Yang Nine Needles.

As Shaohua inserted needle after needle, the Emperor witnessed the dark discoloration on the Empress Dowager’s face slowly fading away.

Shaohua put away the last silver needle.

The Imperial Physicians by her side, who were most familiar with the Empress Dowager’s condition, now saw her in such a state. They checked her pulse again, their previously darkened expressions clearing up and turning into shock instead.

Shaohua maintained a cold demeanor throughout.

The Emperor, for some reason, thought of Ye Bozhong but did not dare ask her,

He had wanted to question the other Imperial Physicians, but to his surprise, they were not even looking at him.

One after the other, they gathered around Shaohua, "Lady Ye, was the technique you just used the Yin Yang Nine Needles once employed by your father? Judging by your performance, you seem to have a much deeper understanding than your father did."

"Lady Ye, do you know what poison afflicted the Empress Dowager? Could you tell this old man where such a rare poison could be found?"

"I never imagined I would live to see someone use the complete Yin Yang Nine Needles! Lady Ye, you are indeed as talented as your father, truly gifted!"

"..."

The Emperor was for the first time discovering that these people, who usually feared him and carried themselves with the dignity of Imperial Physicians, had such a side to them, surrounding a young lady while exhibiting a tone of respect.

"How is my mother now?" The Emperor, seeing the physicians had finished speaking, subconsciously asked.

Seeing Shaohua’s mocking smile, he inexplicably turned his head, not daring to lock eyes with her, feeling very guilty.

"Your Majesty, the poison within the Empress Dowager has been alleviated," replied an Imperial Physician, "By this afternoon, the Empress Dowager should awaken. As for the remaining poison, with a few more applications of needles by Lady Ye, a full recovery is expected."

Kneeling on the side, Liao Mingxin and Jiujiu were completely dumbfounded!

What was happening inside the palace chamber was naturally heard by those outside, especially the incident of Liao Mingxin causing the suppressed poison within the Empress Dowager to erupt, nearly leading to her death, with the Imperial Hospital at a loss.

But to their astonishment, Shaohua had managed to save her!

"A divine physician! Truly a divine physician!"

It was only at this moment that the Emperor came to his senses. Hearing the Imperial Physician’s assurance that the Empress Dowager was going to recover, he was stunned for a long while before he couldn’t help but tremble and repeated the word "good" several times.

Then, he came to his senses and looked towards the several Imperial Physicians and Shaohua, "Are you saying, my mother was poisoned before?"

"Indeed," Shaohua nodded, "The one who poisoned her was very skilled. While I know what can cure the poison, the medicinal herb required grows on the summit of Snow Mountain and only flowers once every hundred years. It’s extremely rare. In other words, there is no antidote available. However, the poisoner clearly didn’t expect that our Ye Family has the Yin Yang Nine Needles Technique."

The Emperor at that point fully believed Shaohua. After listening to her words, he pondered for a moment before asking, "Was it also the Yin Yang Nine Needles that your father used before? Why... why did my mother vomit black blood after taking his medicine?"

Hearing the Emperor’s words, Shaohua couldn’t help but close her eyes.

She took a deep breath.

She pressed her hand directly into her palm, taking a long time to calm down, "My father had long known that the Empress Dowager was poisoned, but he did not know who the poisoner was. His knowledge of Yin Yang Nine Neediles was only superficial, not enough to cure the Empress Dowager, but only to temporarily suppress the poison within her body, preventing it from seeping into her organs. That’s why the Emperess Dowager vomited black blood."

"As for that bowl of medicine, it was never intended for the Empress Dowager to drink!"

If it wasn’t for the Empress Dowager to drink, then what was it for?

The Emperor stood there, stunned.

In that moment, within the Empress Dowager’s chamber, the Imperial Physicians and the courtiers kept their heads very low, none daring to speak. Each of them had experienced deceit and conspiracy; now reminded by Shaohua, they all understood.

Why? Clearly because Ye Bozhong knew that he had been made a pawn; hence, he used that bowl of poisoned medicine to warn the Emperor that someone intended to harm the Empress.

It was indeed that bowl of poisoned medicine that led the Emperor to dismiss all the palace maids from the Empress Dowager’s side.

Ye Bozhong had used the golden needles to alleviate the Empress Dowager’s poison but did not defend himself because he knew he couldn’t cure her. No one would believe him if he did, and with the news of the Empress Dowager vomiting black blood spreading, those who wished for her death believed their goal accomplished.

With the blood of his entire family, Ye Bozhong warned the Emperor to be vigilant of those harboring intentions against the Imperial Family.

The Emperor watched his own hands in a daze, what had he done?
