Chapter 241 - 243: The Unknown New Ingredient
"Is Emperor Yongye feeling unwell because he was struck by a love poison?"
Feng Bailing recalled Emperor Yongye’s reactions that night.
"After being struck by a love poison, one usually appears normal, only exhibiting severe emotional disturbances when the poison activates. Emperor Yongye does not seem to have been affected by a love poison. However, the purpose behind cultivating the Orchid in the Imperial Palace is unknown. Perhaps someone is breeding the poisonous insect."
Li Mubei openly admitted.
"Mr. Li, besides yourself, how many others are aware of the love poison?"
Feng Bailing asked again.
"Not many know about it. I came to Great Chu this time to investigate the theft of Orchid seeds. The Orchid was cultivated by my ancestors, who transformed them into love poisons, thus access to them has always been restricted within my family and never disclosed. There was an incident of seed theft about twenty years ago. This time, my family sent me to investigate the matter. If it’s confirmed that the seeds were stolen by someone from the Da Chu Royal Family, I will report back to my family, and someone will handle the situation."
Li Mubei was certain that the theft of the Orchid seeds was related to Great Chu.
However, he was yet unable to ascertain who in the Great Chu Imperial Palace was responsible.
"Mr. Li, may I take charge of this matter? I assure you, within a month, I can identify who stole the seeds. But during this month, you must keep it secret to avoid alerting the culprit."
According to the Dragon Queen, the other party wants the Dual-Colored Orchid. He (she) must utilize the Wooden Holy Seal to cultivate the rare Dual-Colored Orchid.
