"Because of how you looked so healthy when you left, there was a guy who questioned if it was really poison and ate it," Ren said.
"Who is that fool?" Yen asked. The poison used was fugu poison, the effects of the poison took some time to show up after eating.
"The cabinet minister has gone numb. There is a large commotion over there." Ren answered.
"Since we are already in this situation, I suggest you let him use this." She rummaged through her bosom and took out a purse. It was a vomit-inducing drug she put in her breasts. "I made it, so it'll make you vomit to the point of turning your stomach."
"Hey, that'll make it a poison then?" Ren said in an amazed tone.
"There's also a court physician here. There's no problem to leave it to him." Yen stopped her steps, suddenly remembering.
"What's wrong?" Ren asked.
"I have something to ask you. Someone I want to bring along with us."
"Who could that be?" He frowned, head tilted.
"Can you call for Consort Hui-sama?" Yen said in a dignified voice.
The summoned Consort Hui, who smiled happily at Ren with a look of springtime, looked at Yen who had put her veil back on with an unamused 'oh it's you' expression. Perhaps she couldn't calm down, and she was rubbing her left hand with her right hand — a childish woman. They had planned to go to the medical office, but because of the crowd there due to the stupid big shot, they had no choice but to use an unused office. Comparing them like this, there was a difference in the building structure to the inner palace and the medical office. Consort Hui made a slightly sulky face at the plain, unrefined large room.
The one who came in after them in succession was the only person they had requested Yijun to get.
Yen drank the lukewarm antidote. She would be fine even if she didn't drink it. She drank it, so to speak, for caution's sake, and so the medicine wasn't compounded by the other person in vain. Different to the quack doctor, this court physician seemed superior. If he knew about fugu poison, he should have understood that an antidote was pointless.
Setting down the cold liquid, she bowed once to Consort Hui. "Excuse me."
"!?" Yen took hold of the consort's left hand and pulled up her long sleeves, revealing a graceful white arm.
"As I suspected." Skin that was supposed to be smooth to touch had broken out in red rashes.
"There are things you can't eat, right? Among seafood." Consort Hui cast her eyes down.
"What does that mean?" Ren asked her with his arms crossed. Yen took a moment to think as explaining allergies in this era is hard
"Depending on the person, there are those who respectively have things they can't eat. Aside from seafood, there are also things like egg, wheat, and dairy products." Yen explained
"How did you know about that?" The consort timidly asked.
"Before that, is your stomach okay? It doesn't look like you have nausea or cramps though," Yen asked.
At the words, "If you like, I'll dispense you a laxative," the consort shook her head vigorously.
Saying that in front of the heavenly person she admired was considerably mean. That was a bit of revenge.
"Well then, please sit down and listen." Yijun, a diligent man despite his appearance, pulled out a chair for her. And then, Consort Hui sat.
"It's because your meals were switched with Gina-sama's meals. As Gina-sama has no preferences, she usually partakes the same dishes as the emperor."
And despite this, there were one or two ingredients that were different.
"What you can't eat, is it mackerel and abalone?"
The consort nodded.
Yen didn't miss the agitation of the maid at the back. "This is something only people who have things they can't eat know. It is an issue before pickiness. You only got hives this time, but it can cause dyspnea and even heart failure sometimes. So, to speak, in a way you can understand, it is the same as serving poison." The talk of poison elicited a nervous response.
"Hui-sama, it may have been something you couldn't speak out with the atmosphere of the place, but what you did was extremely dangerous." Yen established that among the consort and the maid who had a dazed look. "Please never forget that." She advised that to both parties equally.
"Please relay that to the ones in charge of setting your meals as well," she said, but it didn't seem to have gone through the heads of the consort and the maid. To the accompanying maid, Yen explained to her the dangers in detail and passed over the methods she wrote down to deal with the case of it happening. The maid was pale-faced, shaking her head feebly, this maid was the food taster woman.
She was a woman who smiled and allowed her consort to consume something that could hurt her.
After Consort Hui withdrew from the room, she noticed the clingy atmosphere behind her and the hand that came to touch her shoulder.
She looked at him coldly as if looking at a dried-up earthworm was preferable. "I am of humble birth, so can you please not touch me with your hands?" Stop the clinginess, and she told this rascal in a roundabout way.
"Only you would say such things," Ren said.
"Well then, everyone is paying attention." She briskly pulled away. With a heartrending sigh, she sought for the refreshing Yijun, but the attendant who was loyal to his master appealed to her with his eyes to "Please bear with it for me."
"Well then, I'll go report this to Gina-sama." She said.
"Why did you especially have the food taster maid come in the same room?" He just suddenly got to the core of things, that's why it was hard for her to escape.
"What are you talking about? I am unable to understand though," she replied expressionlessly.
"Then, was it a mistake in the table setting?"
"I don't know that either." She played ignorance to the end.
"Answer this for me at least. The one they were aiming for was the Consort Hui, isn't it?" he asked.
"If there was no poison in the other plates. Then, Yes, that would be the case."
Seeing Ren deep in thought, she withdrew from the room and sighed deeply as she leaned against the wall.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
