Chapter 769: The Demon Physician’s Apprentice

"Frostbite's a rare but also wicked slow-acting poison developed by the Demon Physician. Its victims…"

"No need to introduce its usage. Just tell us the Empress Dowager's plan."

Just when Matron Chen was about to explain Frostbite's properties, Zhao Qian quickly interrupted her.

Please, if everyone were to know that Master was once impotent, he would be utterly humiliated!

What an evil old hag!

Matron Chen was startled, and not daring to mention Frostbite's properties anymore, continued, "The Crown Prince was still young back then, so the Empress Dowager thought of using Frostbite on His Majesty. That way, His Majesty could secure the throne for the Crown Prince, and when the Crown Prince became an adult, the poison would have taken full effect…"

When Lu Liangwei heard this, the truth finally dawned on her.

Now she understood why the culprit had used a slow-acting poison.
