Could it be yesterday... She thought that yesterday afternoon she had been teasing the third prince, kissing each other... Yun Xiyao's face became paler and paler.

"Bring it to me to see!" Dongfang Chen stretched out his hand.

The imperial doctor got up and handed a powder box and a rouge box wrapped in a white handkerchief to the eunuch next to Dongfang Chen...

Dongfang Chen looked at the powder box and rouge box with the eunuch's hand, and then looked at Yun Xiyao: "Where did the powder box and rouge box come from, and who might have access to them?"

"Yes... it was issued by the Ministry of Internal Affairs last month. The only people who can be contacted are Linglong and Xiangqiong, oh, and Mother Xue, but it can't be them." Yun Xiyao's face was full of confusion.

While speaking, the other three imperial doctors also came out, bowing down and reporting: "Your Majesty, no poison was found in other places."

Dongfang Chen's eyes flickered slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Concubine Shu, let someone take them to the rooms of Xue Nanny, Linglong and Xiangqiong to check again." After speaking, Dongfang Chen turned to the little eunuch beside him, "Send someone to The Ministry of Internal Affairs, bring the servants who are responsible for supplying the rouge powder in the palace."

Yun Xiyao's face was pale and almost crumbling, after thinking about it, she asked a young eunuch of Shuyan Palace to bring four imperial doctors to the room of Madam Xue and the three of them for inspection, and the little eunuch next to Dongfang Chen also immediately sent someone to the House of Internal Affairs.

As the person in charge left, the room fell into an oppressive silence again.

Having not slept all night, Dongfang Chen felt a little sleepy, so he propped his head on his hands, closed his eyes and rested his mind, while Yun Xiyao sat on a chair like a lifeless wooden figure, with a dull expression.

It was time for another half a cup of tea, and the four imperial doctors returned. Seeing Dongfang Chen dozing off, they hesitated for a moment, and stood quietly where they were.

"Tell me. Have you found anything?" Dongfang Chen said slowly with his eyes closed.

The expressions of the four imperial doctors were serious, one of them took a step forward, bowed and said, "No poison was found in the three-person room."

Dongfang Chen gave a faint "hmm" and continued to close his eyes to rest.

Everyone held their breath and concentrated, not daring to breathe.In this silence, An Fuhai left and returned.

Finally, a notification came from outside the door: "The person in charge of rouge powder from the Ministry of Internal Affairs has arrived."

Dongfang Chen slowly opened his eyes, then sat up straight, and said in a deep voice, "Let them in!"

A middle-aged eunuch and two young eunuchs were pale, walked in with a trace of apprehension, knelt on the ground and saluted, their voices trembling with nervousness.

Although the eunuch who sent them here didn't say what it was for, they had already heard that the third prince had been poisoned, so they expected that the emperor's sending them here at this time must not be a good thing.

"Tell me! Who gave you the guts to poison the rouge powder provided to Concubine Shu." Dongfang Chen took a sip of tea, and then said slowly, with a hint of coolness in his voice.

The bodies of the three eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs shook slightly, and the leading middle-aged eunuch said with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, I am wronged. Even if you give me ten courages, I will not dare to do such a thing."

"You didn't do it, who did it? The poison was found in the rouge powder." Dongfang Chen asked coldly.

"Your Majesty, when the slaves distribute the powder and rouge to the palaces, they are all inspected by the female officials of the palaces, and they will be taken away if there is no problem." The middle-aged eunuch said in a trembling voice.

Dongfang Chen frowned, thinking that this was the truth, his expression suddenly became a little loose.After thinking about it, looking at Yun Xiyao, the meaning is self-evident, not from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so the suspect is still in Shuyan Palace.
