"Replying to Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is overly worried, experiencing palpitations and shortness of breath, leading to restlessness and causing her internal organs to burn. Now having suffered severe injuries, I fear..."
"Fear what?"
"I fear she will need to recuperate quietly for years, unable to bear fatigue and worry anymore."
Zheng Yi said, "Could the Empress Dowager have been poisoned by a Gu toxin?"
"Poisoned by a Gu toxin?"
The Imperial Physician exclaimed in surprise, "Your Majesty, how is the Empress Dowager?"
Seeing Zheng Yi's cold gaze, the Imperial Physician realized immediately and quickly corrected himself:
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Today, the Empress Dowager was assassinated by a killer, poisoned with Gu toxin, and rendered unconscious."
"I, I will prepare the decoction for the Empress Dowager immediately."
"Very well."
Zheng Yi nodded and said, "The Empress Dowager has been harmed by an assassin, making all attendants of Cining Palace complicit!"
