Chapter 72 Decisions

Ran Ning saw Zhong Su's uncle for the first time, and she was absolutely amazing. She is often praised for her beauty, but compared to this uncle, she is simply ashamed of herself. If Zunchen is like a fairy, then this uncle is evil like a demon, the size of the uncle is about the same as Zunchen, with white hair, even the eyelashes are white, the eyebrows are pale chestnut, the skin is white, the pupils are pitch black, and the lips are bright red. There wasn't much expression on his face, and even when he talked to Zunchen, he didn't show a gentle look. Such a person is undoubtedly eye-catching wherever he goes, and although it feels evil, it is not frightening, on the contrary, it is very attractive, and it makes people want to listen to him and explore how he turned into snow.

"This is Su'er's uncle-Shen Feng. Just follow Su'er's call. After entering the house, Zunchen introduced Ran Ning.

"I've seen Uncle Shi." Ran Ning saluted him respectfully.

"This is Su'er's daughter-in-law, you haven't seen it all along." Zunchen said to Shen Feng.

Shen Feng nodded, didn't say anything to Ran Ning, and turned around and went to Zhong Su's side.

Zhong Su was still sleeping, and his face was even paler than before. He hasn't woken up for the past few days, but he is still conscious, and he can swallow medicine when he is fed, which is also slightly comforting.

Shen Feng checked Zhong Su's pulse, looked at Zhong Su's fingernails again, and then took out a silver needle from the purse he was carrying, pierced Zhong Su's fingers, took out some blood, twisted it with his hand first, and sniffed it, the expression on his face has not changed much.

At this time, the Marquis of Zhenbei also came with General Zhong and the Tan family. After entering, there was no sound, and the room was still quiet. As soon as Shen Feng came, Zun Chen took him to see the Marquis of Zhenbei and General Zhong, because Shen Feng didn't like people to disturb him when he was studying poison and needed to be quiet, so they didn't follow him immediately. When Tan heard that Shen Feng was coming, he was very anxious to know the result, and he couldn't sit still after staying in Zhenbei Hou's study for a while, Zhenbei Hou and General Zhong also wanted to know the result, so they came together, and said not to disturb Shen Feng.

Shen Feng glanced at Zhenbeihou and the others, and seeing that none of them spoke, he seemed to be a little satisfied in his heart, and continued to study the poison. After touching and sniffing, he didn't seem to find anything, and Shen Feng said to Zunchen without looking back: "Bring my medicine box." ”

"Okay." Zunchen didn't blink his eyes, went out and took the medicine box held by Xiao Wu, and handed it to Shen Feng after returning to the house.

Shen Feng opened the medicine box, took out a few medicine bottles, and then turned over the six teacups on the table one by one, Zun Chen knew his intentions, and helped pour half of the hot white water into each cup. Shen Feng put a different pill in each cup, and the pill melted quickly, and Shen Feng immediately squeezed two drops of blood from Zhong Su's fingertips into each cup.

After a few moments, five of the six cups were still brown after the pill had melted, while one cup had turned a deep purple.

Shen Feng put down the cups and said, "Smash these cups and bury them deeply, and pour the potion into the deep pit together." ”

There is a maid in the room, Bizhu is also very calm at this time, her aunt is saved, and she has no time to think about those strange medicines. I quickly grabbed those teacups and went out.

Shen Feng was in no hurry to put away the medicine box, and Ran Ning didn't know if he should open his mouth at this time. Fortunately, Zunchen understood Shen Feng and asked, "Senior brother, what kind of poison did Su'er get into?" ”

Shen Feng didn't look up, and said directly: "This poisonous name is Scorpion, it is something from the west, to be precise, it is something from the West Cliff Country. There are many villages in Xiya that are nearly a hundred years old, and although they belong to the Xiya Imperial Court, the Xiya Imperial Court is not really able to control them. They have their own way of life, and in order to protect themselves, each village has its own very unique poison - medicine. This kind of thing is not difficult to get, but it is necessary to be familiar enough with the West Cliff to find these villages, or to find this kind of poison that can target Zhong Su. ”

Zunchen frowned and asked, "So it should be the people of Xiya who can find this poison?" ”

"Well, it should be the Xiya people who found this poison, but they can put this poison into Zhong Su's diet at the palace banquet......" Shen Feng stopped talking halfway through his words. He didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the court, and if it weren't for Zhong Su being his nephew, he wouldn't have saved him at all.

Even if Shen Feng's words were not finished, the people in the house understood what he was going to say next, and it was only the people in the palace who could poison the palace banquet.

After a moment of silence, Zunchen asked, "Senior brother, how to solve this poison?" He asked how it was, not if it could be solved. He knew that this would definitely not be difficult for his senior brother.

"Hot water pulls out poison." Shen Feng said.

"Then I'll leave it to Senior Brother." Zunchen knew this method, but he didn't know how to use it.

"Then Su'er will be handed over to Your Excellency, and the Beihou Mansion of my town is grateful to Your Excellency." The Marquis of Zhenbei thanked Shen Feng with a fist.

Shen Feng didn't speak, just nodded slightly.

Such a move may seem disrespectful to the Marquis of Zhenbei, but Ran Ning can see that Shen Feng is not very self-controlled, but he is just not good at these people's sophistication.

"Senior brother is not good at words, please don't be surprised." Zunchen explained for Shen Feng.

Zhenbei Hou waved his hand indifferently and said, "It's okay, I am already grateful to be rescued by Shen Feng's knights." ”

"Shen Feng." Shen Feng said two words to Zhenbei Hou.

Zhenbeihou was a little puzzled.

Zunchen smiled lightly: "Senior brother means that you can directly change his name, and the chivalrous name will be exempted." ”

"Okay, okay." Zhenbei Hou smiled and nodded.

Knowing that Zhong Su was saved, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The Tan family asked people to quickly pack up a room in Yuexin Courtyard for Shen Feng to live in.

Ran Ning stopped the maid who was going to clean up the house, and said to Tan: "Uncle Shi is happy, it's better to let Uncle Shi live in Qingfeng Courtyard, the connected Zhishui Courtyard is even quieter, presumably Uncle Shi also likes it." ”

"Exactly, exactly." The Tan family was also so happy that she didn't think about it, but fortunately, Ran Ning woke her up, otherwise she would have to snub Shen Feng.

Tan knew that there were very few people in Zhong Su's yard, so he simply took the maids to clean up the house. Zhenbei Hou also instructed the kitchen to cook more delicious meals to wash the dust for Shen Feng.

Shen Feng didn't talk much, so he first prescribed two prescriptions for Zhong Su, one for internal use and one for medicinal baths. Xiao Wu took the prescription and immediately went to grab the medicine. The medicinal bath should be soaked in the evening, and the decoction should be taken three times a day.

For Zhong Su's inspection, Shen Feng's room was still being cleaned up, and Zunchen asked Shen Feng to go to his room to rest first, and by the way, he could meet Chu Yan. Shen Feng didn't object, so he followed Xinchao to Yuexin Courtyard first.

"Su'er will be handed over to you to take care of, and I will send those imperial doctors back to the palace first." Zhenbei Hou said to Ran Ning. The emperor already knew the news of Zhong Su's poisoning, and he also began to investigate, his goal was achieved, it was useless to keep so many imperial doctors, but it would delay Shen Feng to detoxify Zhong Su, it was better to leave only one to deal with.

"Grandfather, don't worry." Ran Ning nodded, she didn't want to leave Zhong Su for a single step.

Zhenbei Hou said to General Zhong again: "You go and warn the people below and let them stop talking nonsense." ”

"Yes, my son understands." General Zhong replied. The less people know about Shen Feng's coming to Zhenbeihou, the better, and the people below must be stricter.

After Zhenbei Hou and General Zhong left together, Ran Ning sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Zhong Su, who was still asleep. From the initial uneasiness to the current calmness, although it was only a few days, Ran Ning felt like a few years had passed. Now that Zhong Su is sure that everything will be fine, Ran Ning can finally settle down and calmly think about the future problems.

This matter involves the West Cliff, and the West Cliff and Beixin have always been incompatible, and there are at least one or two battles in the West every year. Zhong Su's poisoning this time involves Xiya and the palace, in other words, there must be someone in the palace who colluded with Xiya, but it is not easy to find out who it is.

And in the past few days, Ran Ning has also figured out one thing, although Zhong Su is smart, but no matter how smart Zhong Su is, no matter how good his martial arts are, it is difficult to ensure that he is perfect. The so-called two fists are hard to beat four hands, Zhong Su must have someone who can help him, Du Muyi and Yuan Hengyang are counted, but it is far from enough. She used to just want to live in peace, and her grandfather had always taught her that she could only be safe without fighting with the world, but now it seems that how can she not fight? How can we talk about peace?

She had also helped Zhong Su analyze some things before, but it was nothing, and it was not worth mentioning much compared to what her grandfather taught her. Now that Zhong Su is in need of someone, if she doesn't help Zhong Su, I'm afraid that dangers like these will come again, or even stricter, and in the end, she may not be able to return to the sky. has been dormant for so many years, there is always someone worthy of her digging out what she has learned and paving the way for him, Ran Ning feels that Zhong Su is this person, she is willing to let go of her infighting, to help Zhong Su, but also to help herself.

Folding the quilt again for Zhong Su, Ran Ning said softly: "Sleep, when you sleep well, I will discuss the long term with you." ”

For Ran Ning, the connections she knows the most are undoubtedly those left by Lao Wan Pingbo, since she has decided to do it, these can be used. She knew that her father would not waver in his position and associate with those people unless he had to, and that was definitely the best thing for her. Since her father doesn't use it, then she will accept it all, even if the third prince marries Ran Ji in the future, so as to use the idea of these connections, at that time, she will let the third prince use it useless.

Chu Yan's well-behaved made Shen Feng very satisfied, and Chu Yan's physique and bones were indeed suitable for practicing his martial arts, so Shen Feng decided to accept this apprentice. That night, under the witness of Zunchen and Zhenbei Hou, Chu Yan confirmed that he had worshiped his teacher. In this way, Shen Feng will not leave the capital again in a short time.

Although Chang Gonggong also tried his best to check, he had no clue. On the one hand, the palace banquet has been dispersed, and it is difficult to find evidence from the palace maids and eunuchs who served the food. On the other hand, there are many people coming and going at the palace banquet, and there are also many people who can enter the imperial dining room, so it is a problem to find out.

"Your Majesty, the minions are incompetent, and they really can't find out anything." Father-in-law Chang knelt in the temple.

The emperor took a sip of ginseng soup and said, "It's not that you are incompetent, it's that the person who poisoned me expects that I can't find out, otherwise I wouldn't dare to cause trouble at my palace banquet." ”

Father-in-law Chang thought for a while and said: "This palace banquet is the responsibility of the queen mother, and the slave is incompetent, it is better to let the queen mother check, it may be easier to find clues." ”

The emperor glanced at Father-in-law Chang and did not speak.

Chang Gonggong also understood in his heart, and the emperor even doubted the queen's mother.

After a while, the emperor asked, "How is Zhong Su now?" ”

"The people in the hospital said that the person was still in a coma, and now I don't know what kind of poison he has been in, it is really not like an ordinary poison-medicine, and he needs to try the prescription slowly." Father-in-law Chang said truthfully: "The Hou of Zhenbei is worried that the imperial doctors are all in the Hou Mansion of Zhenbei, in case there is a need in the palace, it will be delayed." He sent most of the imperial physicians back, leaving only one imperial physician. In the past few days, Imperial Doctor Wang has also prescribed medicine with other imperial doctors, and the direction of the medication is also known, and it is okay for him to try to detoxify. Moreover, General Zhong Xiao's master is in the Hou Mansion, and with him, he should be fine. ”

The emperor nodded, didn't say anything more, and after drinking the ginseng soup, he let Grandpa Chang wait to change his clothes and rest.
