The world's medical concubine wants to divorce

Chapter 242 The Key
Concubine Ronggui held her hand instead, "Don't think so much, take care of your illness. You see, Wen Yi always goes outside to treat people's illnesses. The emperor is busy with government affairs, so how can he have time to discipline the children? Those concubines in the harem are even more so. You can’t count on it, if you didn’t take it, who would take it? My grandson can’t rely on others.”

The empress dowager burst into tears when she heard Concubine Ronggui say this, "Yeah, who can the Ai family rely on? The Ai family remembered that the twins told the Ai family that when they were in Nanshan City, every time Wen Yi went to the doctor, she would either take them Go, sleep in the haystacks in the courtyard, or stay at home, how dangerous it is, Aijia thinks about it once, and feels uncomfortable once, you say, they are the children of the emperor, they are Aijia’s favorite, Aijia would rather be alone It’s hard for them to suffer.”

Concubine Rong Gui has a deep understanding of this point. When she knew that An Yi might lose her sight, she wished that it was herself who became blind.

"Forget it, forget it, don't talk about it, it makes me feel really uncomfortable, but I promise you, Wen Yi will definitely find a way to cure you, so don't be pessimistic."

The empress dowager nodded, "Don't worry, the Ai family will definitely last if they can survive, the Ai family is really reluctant."

The two faced each other with a handshake, and the past emerged, only to feel that the world is impermanent.

Wen Yi calmed down, and went to see Imperial Doctor Lan in the prison.

Lu Ning was in charge of the custody, and he was not bad for Royal Doctor Lan. He was held alone, covered with clean straw, and given a thin quilt.

Now the weather is hot, but the sky prison does not see the sun all year round, so the sky prison is always dark and humid.

Doctor Lan's spirit is not bad, his face is a little pale, the rest is fine,
Seeing Wen Yi, he also seemed very calm.

"Doctor Wen, I knew you would come." He said.

Wen Yi asked Lu Ning to accompany her in, and brought a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus wine.

She poured a glass of wine, sat down on the straw, and handed it to him, "The emperor found a poison in your mansion. I have seen this poison, and it is the same as the poison poisoned by the empress dowager."

"I was framed. I never knew there was such a jar in my house." Lan Yuyi defended.

"However, I asked the servants of your mansion, the place where the pot was found is your study, and no one can enter except you and the cleaning boy."

Imperial Physician Lan sighed softly, "That's right, so I don't know who framed me and how they put this jar in."

Wen Yi looked at him, and remembered that the late emperor wanted to kill him because of An Ran's affairs, and he saved him from the late emperor's hands. He has always worked with trepidation, so he probably would not have poisoned the empress dowager.

Moreover, there is a motive in everything. What reason does he have to kill the empress dowager?He is an imperial doctor, his family is well-off and peaceful, and he has no reason to fall into other people's hands. No one can threaten him. There is really no need for him to joke about his future, wealth and life.

"Think about it, have any strangers been in and out of your house recently?" Wen Yi asked.

Imperial Physician Lan looked at Wen Yi gratefully, "Doctor Wen's ability to ask me like this proves that Doctor Wen has never doubted me in his heart. I am very moved to have you always believe me."

Wen Yi said: "However, it will take some effort to prove that you are innocent."

"Maybe it's fate. I was supposed to be beheaded by the late emperor, but Dr. Wen saved me. Now that I've lived a few more years, it's my good luck." Lan Yu said sadly, he knew, now The evidence of the crime is conclusive, and it is difficult to justify it. The person who framed him wanted him to be a dead ghost. How could he let him get away so easily?

Wen Yi frowned, "Don't say such frustrating words, you didn't do it, so you must be innocent."

"Doctor Wen doesn't need to ask me to run around. The poisonous poison was found from my house. I am the only person who has touched the empress dowager's wound. I am the most suspicious, so don't worry about it."

Wen Yi said seriously: "This is not just about you alone. If you were not the murderer who poisoned you and killed you, the murderer is at large and will continue to harm others. Therefore, we must find out the real murderer."

Lu Ning also said: "That's right, Doctor Lan, think about it carefully, has anyone been to your study?"

After listening to Wen Yi and Lu Ning's words, Imperial Doctor Lan thought for a while, "It is true that no one has been to my study recently. Since the Empress Dowager fell ill, I have been in the palace for more than eight hours a day, and I just go back home to sleep. Three hours, rarely stay."

Wen Yi asked Lu Ning, "Have people in the mansion asked?"

Lu Ning said: "I asked, Madam Lan said that no one has been here recently, let alone entered the study."

Wen Yi frowned, "That's strange, could it be that a master sneaked in and put it in? Is there any trace of the door lock being pried open?"

"No!" Lu Ning said.

"There's not even a trace of prying it open?"

"There has never been a trace of prying open, and the doors and windows are also in good condition and have not been damaged."

Wen Yi thought for a while, "Even if a master sneaks in, he still needs to pick the door lock. Is there a lock-picking technique, even if you open it, you can't see it?"

Lu Ning waved his hand, "Impossible, I am a master lockpicker myself, I must know if someone has pried it open, because if the key does not fit, there will be traces left, but the lock is intact and has not been forcibly opened trace."

"Then it was entered by a key."

She raised her head and asked Lan Yuyi, "Who else is there in the mansion except you who have the key to the study?"

Doctor Lan said: "No one has a key except me, because there are many precious books in my study, so even if I need to clean it, I do it when I am present, lest the servants will damage the books roughly. .”

"That is to say, no one can enter the study room alone except you?"

"It can be said like this." Lan Yu said.

Wen Yi and Lu Ning looked at each other. According to Doctor Lan's words, there was no breakthrough in this interrogation.

Moreover, his suspicion has become even greater, because he is the only one who can enter the study room alone, and the rest must be present if they want to enter.

The lock had never been pried open, and the doors and windows were in good condition, which meant that no one had entered his study alone. From the superficial evidence, the possibility of framing was ruled out.

Wen Yi thought for a while and asked, "Then, have you ever lost your key?"

Imperial Physician Lan was taken aback for a moment, "There is nothing wrong with it, but one day I forgot I was in the Imperial Hospital and didn't bring it home. I wanted to find a book in the study room that day, only to realize that I didn't bring the key."

"Did you find your key when you went back the next day?" Lu Ning asked hastily.

"I found it. It's in the drawer of my desk. No one should have touched it." Lan Yu said.

"It hasn't been touched, how do you know? It's not impossible that someone took the key and went out to match it." Lu Ning said.

Doctor Lan waved his hand, "It should not have been touched, because my drawer is locked, and I brought the key of the drawer home. No one has pried the drawer open, and the lock is still intact."

"When did this happen?" Wen Yi asked.

Imperial Physician Lan thought for a while, "It was about seven days ago, probably about the same."

Wen Yi looked at Lu Ning, "If someone picked the lock of the drawer seven days ago, would you be able to find out?"

Lu Ning said confidently: "Of course, as long as someone pries it, I can find it even in the past year."

Wen Yi said: "It's not too late, you go and check right away."

Lu Ning said: "Okay, I'll go right away."
