"I … I was only planning for the worst case scenario." Imperial Physician Wang choked and his face turned pale.
Chu Xuanchen coldly swept a glance at Imperial Physician Wang. He could already tell that this Imperial Physician Wang was the real quack.
However, he would definitely not speak up for Yun Ruoyue.
At this time, Yun Ruoyue had already walked towards the pile of flower pots. Just as she was about to take a closer look, a servant girl in green who was originally kneeling suddenly stood up and blocked Yun Ruoyue's path. "Your Highness, what are you doing? These are all rare flowers that this servant had meticulously cultivated for the prince's residence. They are the prince and Madam Nangong's favorite. You must not hurt them. "
"What is your name?" Yun Ruoyue stopped in her tracks and looked at the servant girl in green in front of her.
The servant girl in front of her had a pale face and her eyes were filled with guilt and panic. She understood with one look.
"Replying Your Highness, this servant is called Lu 'er." Lu 'er's heart was trembling with fear, but she tried her best to pretend to be calm on the surface. However, her pale face and slightly swaying body made Yun Ruoyue suspicious.
"Lu 'er, these flowers were all cultivated by you?" Yun Ruoyue asked.
"Yes, Your Highness. These flowers are cultivated here. After they are cultivated, they will be sent to the prince and madam's room. These flowers are very precious and difficult to cultivate. They are very rare in the world, so this servant hopes that Your Highness will not hurt them. "Lu 'er calmly said.
"Don't worry, I only thought that they were pretty and came over to take a look." Yun Ruoyue said.

Chu Xuanchen strode in front of Yun Ruoyue and looked down at her from above. His handsome eyes were filled with frost. "Alright, don't keep me in suspense. If you have something to say, just say it. If you don't give a reasonable explanation, Wang will hold you accountable!"
Yun Ruoyue coldly glanced at Chu Xuanchen.
This stinky man only knew how to threaten her.
Alright, she didn't keep him in suspense and directly said, "Your highness, when I entered Mo Zhu's room, I smelled a very strange fragrance. It smelled like medicine and people who aren't used to it would think it smelled bad."
"So what?" Chu Xuanchen flicked his sleeves coldly.
Yun Ruoyue said coldly, "When I was in the courtyard, I also smelled that smell. Coincidentally, I've read a medical book before. There's a kind of flower called oleander. It's bright red and has a strong fragrance. It's a poisonous flower! I suspected that someone had moved the oleander to Mo Zhu's room. Normal people would only feel dizzy and nauseous after smelling the scent of oleander. However, Mo Zhu was a patient. Her immune system was weak, and her wounds had yet to heal. If he smells this smell, he will definitely vomit and have diarrhea. He will have a high fever and difficulty breathing, which will cause his wounds to fester. Finally, he will lose consciousness and die of poisoning. "
"Also, I just took a look. In order to let the room ventilate, I had people leave Mo Zhu's window open. But yesterday, Mo Zhu's window was suddenly closed. Oleander is in an enclosed space, so its toxicity is even stronger. Mo Zhu will be poisoned if he smells this fragrance from morning till night. So I suspect that someone deliberately moved the oleander into Mo Zhu's room to poison him. After Mo Zhu fainted, they moved the flowers out. They did it so secretly that no one would notice. "
"Oleander?" When Mo Li heard this, he looked at the flowers in confusion.
He was a rough man who practiced martial arts, so how could he know about this kind of poison?
Yun Ruoyue walked forward and pointed at a pot of red flowers hidden in the corner. Her eyes flashed with wisdom, "That's it. It's the famous poison, oleander. Just by smelling it, it's not that poisonous, so it won't kill anyone. But once it's eaten, it will cause the limbs to go numb and even death. The person who poisoned Mo Zhu was very smart. She knew that if she put the poison in Mo Zhu's food, it would be easy for others to find out. So, she only let Mo Zhu smell it. In the end, she made a mistake and forgot to open Mo Zhu's window after poisoning him. As a result, the smell was still in the room and I smelled it. "
