Ji Jungkook ordered for Kun Ning Palace to be thoroughly searched, but the results was, there was nothing out of the ordinary. He didn't understand what is wrong, and asked Ye Lisa "Did you and Su Yue touched something else together somewhere?"
Ye Lisa pondered for a while and shook her head "Nope"
Ji Jungkook then turned and ask Su Yue, "In Kun Ning Palace, are there people who are in the same condition as you guys?"
This time Su Feng who was standing at the side answered " Replying to your majesty, I also have those symptoms but it is lighter than Su Yue, the rest of the people also don't have."
"If you are also like this, because you also enters the room of the empress, just that Su Yue enters the room more frequently, that also means" Ji Jungkook turned to Ye Lisa to conclude "if someone really poisoned you, they must have placed it in your room"
Ye Lisa nodded "that is what I am thinking too, but Wang You Cai and the rest already flipped through my room, but they still didn't find anything suspicious"
While they are still in discussion, from outside Doctor Tie has arrived to help check on the empress. It has been over a day since Ye Lisa stayed over at Gan Qing Palace, she felt that she has gained back some energy, her head much clearer as well. Incidentally that was what Doctor Tie concluded "Niang Niang, you are much better now, after 2 more days you would be fine" He also checked Su Yue, and said the same thing.
Although they are getting better, they still cannot return to Kun Ning Palace.
Doctor Tie made a new prescription and passed to Su Yue. Then bringing his medical case, he started to leave, upon reaching the door, he turned back "I am sorry for asking, but is the incense burning in the fragrance pot Hai Li Xiang wood?"
Ji Jungkook answered " Yes it is, you recognize it as well?"
"Kun Ning Palace is using this as well?"
"Correct'
Doctor Tie brushes his beard and murmured "So that is what happened".
"Did you manage to notice something?"
"Replying to your majesty, this Hai Li Xiang wood is the specialty from Nan Yang, the imperial clinic has some, but because it has no medical qualities, no one really payed attention to it. But there is something special about it, only the local people there knows about it, the people in the capital that knows about it is very rare. I also heard it only from a friend that came from Lu Song mentioning it"
"O? What is it?"
Doctor Tie did not answer, but instead asked "If I am not wrong, I remember that there is a pot of Narcissus, is it still there?"
Su Yue answered "Yes it is still there, still in bloom"
"That is it!. Hai Li Xiang woo, when it is burn will have a reaction when met with the fragrance of the Narcissus flower, and they will form a type of poison, if a person smells it for long, the body will start showing tiredness, and the pulse will not show it as poison, but more to being shocked. The empress with her current state now, most probably it was because of the combination of the narcissus and Hai Li Xiang wood."
His words made all the people surprised.
After heavily awarding Doctor Tie, Ji Jungkook asked everyone else to leave, and pulled Ye Lisa into his arms, sighed and said "Lisa, you have suffered" This time around a feeling of guilt is starting to build up in him, because the Hai Li Xiang was passed to her from him, she didn't want it initially, but he advised her to take it.
