Seeing the emperor gritting his teeth in anger, Shen Lingjun said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. Let me first detoxify Your Majesty."
The poison administered by Princess Pingkang was prepared by the old man Xingju in his early years, and its toxicity was not complicated or difficult to cure.
Shen Lingjun wrote out a prescription and told the imperial physicians to quickly take it and decoct the medicine.
The imperial physicians looked at Shen Lingjun as if he were a legendary figure, especially the younger ones, who were filled with admiration.
"So Madam Shen is actually Elder Xingju's disciple! ...I didn't have the honor of meeting Elder Xingju in person, but today I've finally met one of his successors!"
In the medical community of Beiyi, the Elder Xingju is considered an extremely important figure, almost divine, capable of bringing the dead back to life and healing the wounded. He is an object of admiration and worship for countless medical practitioners.
Shen Lingjun smiled and said, "I have always obeyed my master's orders and dared not reveal this identity. However, it is not as exaggerated as you all say. I am just a doctor."
Chu Jinxun, who had collapsed from being drugged by Mo Chonggui's sleeping potion, woke up from his coma and overheard Shen Lingjun's conversation with the imperial physicians.
Chu Jinxun's mind was not fully clear yet, and it took him a long time to react.
Lady Yongning was actually a disciple of the Old Man of Apricot Orange?
Has she been hiding this identity all along?
Wait... Elder Xingju only has one female disciple who has stayed behind. He has met her twice before, once when she came to treat the old lady of the Chu family, and the other time when she treated Chu Tianming's left arm.
The other party produced a black amber pendant from the Xingju Elder's lineage to prove their identity, and their medical skills were extremely high, so they should not be an imposter.
But doesn't that mean... that she is actually the wife of the Marquis of Yongning?
Although the appearance is completely different, it is entirely possible to do so with the art of disguise!
Chu Jinxun was extremely shocked and furious. He stared at Shen Lingjun with wide eyes in disbelief.
"You...you're the one..."
Shen Lingjun glanced at Chu Jinxun, knowing that he had already figured it out.
At this point, she naturally had nothing to hide: "It was me."
"you!......"
Chu Jinxun almost fainted because he couldn't catch his breath.
The first time they cured the old lady of the Chu family, that was fine, but the second time they saved Chu Tianming, it cost them a full one million taels of silver!
Chu Tianming's left arm was completely ruined by Shen Jingyang, yet they still spent one million taels of silver to send it to the Shen family!
If it weren't for Shen Lingjun's exorbitant demand for one million taels, the Chu family wouldn't have fallen into an economic crisis, wouldn't have been forced to make a deal with Xiqi, and wouldn't have been caught red-handed...
It all started because of Shen Lingjun!
Chu Jinxun was furious and about to start cursing, but Mo Zhonggui had already signaled his men to gag Chu Jinxun and drag him aside.
Shen Lingjun didn't even bother to look at Chu Jinxun.
The Imperial Medical Academy prepared the antidote, and the palace servants brought it up for the emperor and his relatives.
After the emperor drank the medicine, the excruciating pain that felt like his intestines were being torn apart gradually subsided after a short while.
The other members of the royal family were also unharmed.
The emperor finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
Tonight's palace coup, though quite a big commotion, ultimately ended without serious consequences.
Mo Chonggui asked the emperor, "Your Majesty, how should these rebels be dealt with?"
The emperor waved his hand: "All those who plotted rebellion, including Chu Jinxun, shall be executed along with their entire families! ... All those people from Western Qi shall have their heads chopped off and returned to the Emperor of Western Qi!"
