Chapter 384 Discrimination

The three people sitting around the room looked kind and friendly on the surface, but they all had their own little Jiujiu in their hearts. Hu Yanxun had a clinging heart and flattered Hu Yanjue for a while.

Hu Yanjue was thinking about something. Although he was talking to Hu Yanxun, he was always paying attention to Hu Yanmo's expressions and movements.

Hu Yanmo wanted to maintain his personality on the surface, but he was thinking about things in his heart. If there was a bitter taste on the tip of his nose, he looked at the cup Hu Yanjue was holding uncontrollably.

"Fifth brother, have you taken medicine?" Hu Yanmo asked in a low voice.

"Huh?" Hu Yanjue turned to look at Hu Yanmo with confusion on his face, "What kind of medicine?"

"There is a faint bitter taste in your cup, I can smell it." Hu Yanmo answered honestly.

"Does it taste bitter?" Hu Yanjue was so frightened that he immediately put down the cup in his hand and said seriously, "Is there something wrong with this water?"

When Hu Yanxun heard this, he was so frightened that the cup in his hand fell directly to the table. It rolled several times on the table and all the water splashed on the tablecloth.

"Sniff sniff".

Hu Yanjue came closer and smelled the water in his cup, "I can't seem to smell it."

When Hu Yanxun saw Hu Yanjue's actions, he also smelled his own, "I didn't seem to smell it either."

The two of them turned to look at Hu Yanmo in unison, and Hu Yanmo also cooperated and sniffed, not forgetting to sniff the cups of Hu Yanjue and Hu Yanxun, and then shrank his neck like a quail, "I

My nose seems to be not working properly. I smelled a bitter smell just now, but I don’t smell it now.”

These words made Hu Yanjue and Hu Yanxun roll their eyes at the same time.

"Third brother, after being so frightened by you, I have to see a doctor carefully. I don't know if Wanyanmin had someone secretly poison us." Hu Yanxun said with lingering fear.

"How can a doctor with unknown origins be trusted? How would you know when he adds something to your medicine?" Hu Yanjue frowned, but couldn't figure out what to do.

"What should we do?"

"Are you feeling unwell?" Hu Yanjue looked at Hu Yanxun and asked.

Hu Yanxun shook his head, "I don't feel anything."

"Then don't worry blindly. It's better to trust your own feelings than the doctor." Hu Yanjue said, "Third brother, what about you, are you feeling well?"

"I don't feel it either." Hu Yanmo's answer was as satisfactory as ever, copying others.

"Eh?" Hu Yanmo had been observing secretly, and finally he found some traces, "Fifth brother, what is this?"

Following Hu Yanmo's line of sight, the three of them all saw a very inconspicuous bit of white scattered on the ground. Looking closer, they saw that it was white powder. The amount was very small and could not be found without looking carefully.

Hu Yanmo walked between Hu Yanjue and Hu Yanxun, then squatted down, reached out and rubbed the white powder directly, put it not far from his nose and smelled it, "This stuff has a bitter taste."

"What is this?" Hu Yanjue frowned slightly, with a trace of doubt and fear in his eyes.

"Fifth brother, you don't know this is from your house?" Hu Yanxun said in surprise.

"I didn't even see it unless Third Brother pointed it out." Hu Yanjue came closer and took a sniff, "What's more, this house belongs to me. Do I have the right to restrict others' entry and exit?"

Hu Yanxun stopped talking after hearing this. Yes, three meals a day were delivered to the house. The guards also found excuses to come in and search every now and then. Those people all entered without asking.

Even though they are princes, they don't have any privacy at all.

To the point that when the princes went to each other's residences, they would just open the door and enter, so it was hard to tell who left the traces of the things in this house.

"It smells really bitter? What is this? It looks like white flour in color, but it has a smell. This is the first time I have seen such a thing." Hu Yanjue made a pertinent analysis, and he told the truth.

, this is not the first time he has seen him today.

"Third brother, fourth brother, have you seen them?"

Hu Yanmo and Hu Yanxun both shook their heads.

"It's better to let the doctor take a look. If it's poison, he can help us detoxify it in time." Hu Yanmo said seriously.

Hu Yanjue nodded, "What Third Brother said makes sense, it's better to take a look and we can feel at ease."

Hu Yanjue's directness and generosity made Hu Yanmo feel a little unsure. He thought it was most likely Hu Yanjue's thing, but seeing that he was not afraid of being checked, it was either something insignificant or he wasn't afraid that others would find out.

But no matter what it was, it made him feel a little uneasy.

Hu Yanmo carefully put the powder into a clean cup, then covered it with a cloth, and waited for the guards to be found. The guards reported immediately, and then the two doctors from Lincuixuan and several other doctors summoned to the royal capital were invited.

come over.

Chen Xiuyan didn't expect that she only had time to take a sip of milk tea in Lincuixuan before she was taken to the side courtyard again.

When she and Dr. Shaw arrived, several other doctors were already there, and the guards carefully checked their medicine boxes.

Chen Xiuyan allowed others to check her gracefully. Anyway, those things she couldn't take out were in the space, and the medicine box contained all ordinary things.

All the doctors' medicine boxes were carefully checked, and the guards seemed to have found nothing.

Chen Xiuyan thought about it for a while, and the only reasonable explanation she could think of was that the thing she gave to Hu Yanjue was exposed, but she was not afraid even if it was exposed. In ancient times, it was impossible for anyone to detect what it was.

But why did Hu Yanjue do it so carelessly?

When the inspection yielded no results, the guard took the tea cup over and asked all the doctors to identify what was in the cup.

Chen Xiuyan was the second to last person to look at it. When she saw the powder and smelled it, it was indeed the detoxifying powder she gave to Hu Yanjue.

"It looks like white flour, but it doesn't smell like it. Is this medicine?" Chen Xiuyan asked seriously. Seeing that no one could answer, she looked at Dr. Xiao De who had not yet recognized him. "Doctor Xiao De, please take a look at this.

What is it?"

Dr. Xiao De was the last one to look at it. Seeing that so many people couldn't identify it before, he slowly took the tea cup and looked and smelled it. For a while, he really couldn't identify it.

"There are several kinds of white Chinese medicine powder, such as Angelica dahurica, yam, Poria, etc., but the taste is wrong." Chen Xiuyan said her guesses and analysis on the side, but she rejected them all one by one.

Dr. Xiao De was careless at first, but after a while of identification and still couldn't distinguish it, his brows instantly furrowed, "Is that all?"

As soon as Chen Xiuyan heard him ask this, she knew that he wanted to do an experiment, but it was useless. Even if he was given enough weight, he would definitely not be able to determine it.

"That's all." The guard replied.
