Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability Chapter 1537: Suddenly, His Face Turned Green

Chapter 1537: Chapter 1537: Suddenly, His Face Turned Green

It wasn’t that she was reluctant to part with the antidote pills, but a whole one taken at once would cure the poison, yet its medicinal strength would also harm the child’s body.

Half a pill would suffice.

“Yes, young master.”

The pharmacists respectfully took the porcelain bottle and, along with several others, went to dissolve the antidote pill and feed it to the children.

While the pharmacists were administering the antidote to the children, Qian Jiyun took An Jiuyue outside, followed by Elder Ding Nuo. “Young master, Prince Zhanyun, you trust that after leaving the capital, the emperor’s actions have been numerous,” he said.

“Heh.”

An Jiuyue let out a cold laugh.

“It’s what I expected. If he didn’t do something, it would be a poor use of his intellect.”

Even knowing the tide had turned, the old emperor continued his futile struggles, reveling in them even though he knew they would only bring unwarranted disasters upon the people.

“I’ll take you back.”

Qian Jiyun didn’t say much, only prepared to escort An Jiuyue home.

“No need.”

An Jiuyue, uncharacteristically, did not heed his advice.

“I want to see those who died of poisoning.”

Upon hearing this, a flicker of light pa.s.sed through Qian Jiyun’s eyes.

He wanted to say that he could go alone, but realizing that he was not familiar with the poison, he didn’t voice his thoughts.

“Alright, I’ll take you there.”

“Back already?”

In the Ministry of Justice’s morgue, several corpses remained.

Eldest Brother Yan heard that Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue had returned and had gone straight to the Ministry of Justice, so he hurried over.

“How did it go? Are the matters settled? Have the people been dealt with?”

“Mhm.”

Qian Jiyun responded with a muted acknowledgment, his gaze fixed on An Jiuyue, who was examining the corpses, wary that she might touch something she shouldn’t.

“It took longer than I expected. Didn’t you just go to the Luoyang Residence?” Eldest Brother Yan asked again.

Given his younger brother’s capabilities, if it were only a matter of dealing with the Luoyang-Shao family, it shouldn’t have taken so many days. Perhaps he had gone elsewhere too.

But what could it have been? Other than the matter of the Shao family, there was no other lead.

For a long while, Eldest Brother Yan heard no reply from Qian Jiyun, and just when he thought Qian Jiyun wouldn’t answer, he heard his voice.

“We made a trip to Ming Gu County.”

An Jiuyue continued to scrutinize the corpses carefully as she answered him.

“Ming Gu County?”

Eldest Brother Yan raised an eyebrow. He hadn’t known of the place before, but later he became aware.

After all, as a prince, he wouldn’t remember every county’s name, but he was aware when Qian Jiyun dealt with the Lan household and had even lent a hand.

“I understand now.”

He touched his nose, indicating he had grasped the situation.

“No, you don’t understand.”

This time, Qian Jiyun did speak up, handing over a ledger to Eldest Brother Yan.

“This trip was for the Luoyang-Shao family, for you.”

“This is…”

Eldest Brother Yan took the ledger, flipped through it and immediately his face turned green.

He looked up at the corpses, then down again at the ledger in his hands.

“Are you saying that these people all died from the poisons listed here?”

“Indeed.”

An Jiuyue confirmed.

These people had all died from the Half Puppet Poison.

Eldest Brother Yan took a sharp breath. The Shao family had been wiped out; could they still be involved in so much trouble?

“Younger brother, if we are to go by the poisons in this ledger, these deaths are merely trifling matters.”

Considering the amount of poison he had seen listed in the ledger, and then thinking of the deaths… it was clear that such a large quant.i.ty of poison would not be needed for so few a number of people.
