Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 112

Hailey worked fast. After just two days, she came across the book which Harper had prepared especially for her. Based on what she discovered in the medical book, she decided to perform a blood test on Sue. To her surprise, the result matched the description written in the medical book.

"My Lady..." Abigail, Hailey's maid, was too shocked to finish her words.

"Mother was poisoned!" Hailey exclaimed. "Harper probably wasn't expecting that I would actually check the medical books or even borrow these medical books from her. Otherwise, she would have already disposed of this medical book long ago."

"My Lady, are you implying that Lady Harper poisoned Lady Sue?" Abigail asked, confused.

"Of course. Who else could it be?" Hailey said in a cold tone. "Think about it. Who's benefiting most from Mother's illness?"

"Of course it's Lady Harper, My Lady. She has taken over the domestic affairs of the mansion ever since Lady Sue has gotten ill. Right now, she holds a power that's befitting her identity," Abigail said, taking a guess. "Even if we know that Lady Harper poisoned Lady Sue, we don't have any evidence to prove it."

"This is the evidence!" Hailey blurted out as she waved the medical book she was holding in her hand. "Harper is the best physician in the mansion. It will be easy for her to do some research and make the poison, Nightmare. I must tell Father about the truth. Now that she dared to poison Mother, I'm sure she would have no qualms about poisoning Father as well. Father is going to hate such a vile woman."

"That's right. Prime Minister Charles will seek vengeance for Lady Sue," Abigail nodded.

Without delay, Hailey went to see Charles, who just got back home from the imperial court session. His face darkened almost instantly at the sight of Hailey scurrying toward him. "What is it? What is so urgent?"

"Father, it's serious. Someone has poisoned Mother!"

As soon as Hailey said those words, Charles felt his eyelids twitch. Were people aware that he poisoned Sue? How could they have found out? Nightmare was a type of poison that couldn't possibly be discovered by any test. Apart from that, Kelly, his first wife, had also been given the same poison and no one had ever suspected and found out about it even after all this time.
