OFFERING CONCUBINES
EPISODE 71 FINAL DECISION
Governor Weiheng and everyone present in the room were stunned to hear Xiao Yi's question.
How could this concubine be so confident that she would be able to recover Yuan's concubine who was helpless due to the poison effect of the famous ferocious and rare ice lilies.
Physician Guo who had been next to Xiao Yi, following the extremely dramatic trial from the start was also unable to hide his astonishment.
He considered Xiao Yi to be still experience-blind and overconfident and thought that it was so easy to recover the person who was exposed to the poison of ice lilies.
Concubine Yuan became mute and her body became paralyzed because the poison had locked the nerves in all corners of Consort Yuan's body.
Fortunately, his organs were still saved so that concubine Yuan could still survive but due to the locked nerves was no better than the actual organ damage.
Concubine Yuan remained in a helpless state, that was the reality.
Unless someone has the cure.
Instantly healer Guo looked at concubine Yi, his chest suddenly became pounding hard.
Is it possible that concubine Yi knew something, which she had been carrying for most of her life? Only Bai Seng in this world had ever attempted to make an antidote formulation of the ice lily poison, but hadn't Bai Seng died twenty years ago?
"Ice lily poison is one of the most evil poisons in the world." said Physician Guo, his eyes looking at the girl who was still resting on the floor.
"Only one person knew about the antidote, a northern physician named Bai Seng. But the healer named Bai Seng died in his attempt to solve the way to make an antidote formula for ice lily poison decades ago. The poison of ice lilies is a poison without a cure."The physician Guo.
Xiao Yi returned the gaze of physician Guo confidently.
"A grandson of physician Bai, may know a little more than others." Xiao Yi said, flat and confident.
"Every year, my mother kills every ice lily that grows in the Duyao cave, on the banks of the Yalu river, so that it can never be misused by others. It's just that maybe we've missed something, until someone can smuggle that ice lily out of that cave. Perhaps His Majesty could interrogate concubine Nuo how he obtained those ice lilies. I'm no less curious about that either." Xiao Yi said.
The person behind the curtains of the concubines seemed to be agitated, hearing the sentence that Xiao Yi spoke.
Physician Guo looked at Xiao Yi with the same disbelief as the look on the other person's face in the room, the frail old body approaching Xiao Yi, prostrating on his knees.
"You know Bai Seng?" ask him with a stitch. Xiao Yi shook his head.
"I never met him, he died before I was born. But my mother knew him very well, because physician Bai was his mother." Xiao Yi replied softly.
Physician Guo could only be silent in a state of near-dejection, he was finally allowed by God to see the last person he wanted to see in the world, the descendant of Physician Bai Seng, his young lover who together studied medicine at Fuyuan temple.
"Your Majesty, I've heard that if a person is exposed to the poison of ice lilies, almost everything can't be saved after eating them. No antidote can be given except to wait for 12 hours of critical time to pass. And concubine Yuan could survive through it despite being in paralysis. I request permission from His Majesty and the governor of Weiheng to bring Consort Yuan to Youwu, treat him to recovery by bathing him from the ice spring in Duyao cave."
Xiao Yi clenched his palm, expectantly.
Many surprises in the Guanli hall today, the stormy winds were reversing direction.
Who ever knew about the secret of everyone's life under the heavens, for goodness would surely win its place, despite having to go through many tribulations.
Finally, after passing the permission of the consideration council present, His Majesty granted Xiao Yi's request.
"For the sake of justice today, then as king I decided, concubine Yi was relieved of all charges for not making the mistake he had inflicted upon her.
For concubine Nuo, by using the blue ribbon request Yishu will be forgiven from the death penalty, he will be returned to Liangsu province and I officially divorce him. For the rest of her life, concubine Nuo could not get out of Liangsu.
Huanran's servant was returned to his home in Shanpo village, helping the monks at Sunyen temple." His Majesty said with such an authoritative voice.
"And as for Yuan's concubine, the palace handed her over under the supervision of concubine Yi to pursue her recovery."
His Majesty continued, his eyes could not be separated from the girl in front of him.
His heart felt so warm, with Xiao Yi he felt confident that he could stand even stronger.
The girl proved once again, she was a tough and wise woman even without talking too much.
Everyone who left the Guanli hall that day, had their own judgment of the girl. Inseparable from Commander Zhao Juren who secretly harbored love for Xiao Yi, Qian Ren who could never forget the girl who had been his lover, was, Consort Nuo who felt guilty was like being hit harder than a thousand whips and a shame that could hardly be borne, governor Qian Ren and Suri's mother who now felt more afraid and alert, because the strength of the girl they could not measure just by guessing.

(HUANGHOU PALACE)
Huanghou Palace is the place of the queen mother, actually the palace was reserved for the king's consort. But since His Highness Yan Yue did not choose a single person from her concubine to be the empress, the palace was then handed over to the queen mother for residence, citing the ease of access of the queen mother to arrange the entire harem.
The Queen Mother sat with reddened eyes as if in a rage, since her return from the Guanli hall was really very unpleasant in view all afternoon.
Some of the personal servants and eunuchs who served him had also been expelled from earlier.
He only wanted to talk to the one person who had to take full responsibility with the extraordinary events in the Guanli hall.
Someone who has destroyed the plan, which he has put together very thoroughly.
From the door, a body appeared in a charming young purple silk.
His black hair was tied high above the head, and let it fall like a rajai. His eyes were more jet than that black jade, almost as colorful as the ball of the queen mother's eyes, only blacker still.
"Zhao Juren faced aunty." he said, bowing his body in salute.
