Chapter 116

In the palace, Emperor Zhengde, who received the news of Xiao Lingshu's injury, was also very angry, and the prince, who had already returned to the East Palace, was summoned to the Taihe Hall by Emperor Zhengde.

"Father, the son has already asked the people from the Yabu to investigate this matter thoroughly. I don't know if there are any assassins' comrades in Ludao, I heard that the Fifth Emperor Brother has been poisoned by snakes, and it is not appropriate to move, so it is imperative to send some people to the Five Emperor Brothers first to protect his safety. The prince said.

Emperor Zhengde nodded with a calm face, and dialed a team of Praetorian Guards over, and there were several imperial doctors in the same group. For the first time in his life, Emperor Zhengde was angry for the son who had been neglected, and said to several imperial doctors in a very cold tone: "If the King of Jin has any accidents, you don't have to come back!" ”

The doctors were shocked when they heard this, and they hurriedly □ expressed their determination.

After the imperial doctors left, Emperor Zhengde and the crown prince discussed the assassination of Xiao Lingshu, and the father and son were somewhat tacit, and both cast suspicious eyes on the prince of Nanqi and his party in the state guest inn.

In the State Guest Inn, the eldest grandson of Princess Nanqi, Huiyan, who was still recuperating from her injuries in bed, also said with a look of surprise: "Brother Prince, did you really send someone to assassinate King Jin?" ”

The eldest grandson Hong smiled at the corner of his lips, there were only two brothers and sisters in the room at this time, and he was not afraid to tell her about the plan.

"Naturally, it was arranged alone, and King Jin had to die this time." He smiled grimly, a hint of anger slipping through his eyes.

The eldest grandson Huiyan had a bad instinct, and asked tentatively, "I don't know how the prince's brother arranged it?" Why does King Jin have to die? Is it ......?"

"That's right, Lone asked King Jin's mount to smear the smell of the green silk snake to love, and let the green silk snake sneak attack in the dark. No matter how good King Jin's martial arts are, in that wood, the light is dim, and the green silk snake is hidden in the dark, difficult to detect, how can he see clearly? Although our people are all folded there, the king of Jin is also a snake venom. ”

This green silk snake was originally just some ordinary small snakes, which were fed by some doctors of the royal family of Nanqi using the unique poisonous weeds and poisonous flowers in the mountains and forests of Nanqi, the more poisonous weeds and poisonous flowers it swallowed, the more obvious the abnormalities in the body, the longer and more slender, lying quietly on the ground, like a green silk, to get this name.

The eldest grandson Hui Yan Gui is a princess, and naturally knows the power of this green silk snake, but he didn't expect that the eldest grandson Hong would use it to deal with the King of Jin. The people sent to assassinate died when they died, they were all dead soldiers who had been lurking in Daye for more than ten years, and the people of Daye couldn't find anything, but they were afraid that the green snake would be found out, and then they were the ones who died, and they were still in Daye's territory.

There was a blackness in front of him, and the eldest grandson Huiyan didn't know what to say, and everyone with brains knew that it was not too late for Lu Dao to make a move and leave Daye directly, and if something happened then, they would also have alibi evidence, and now, he didn't even discuss it with them.

"Afraid of what?" Changsun Hong didn't care and said: "King Jin is dead, so I don't believe they can find out anything." Where did the people of Daye know about such a thing as a green silk snake? Look at it, in just a few days, there will definitely be news of King Jin's death! ”

The eldest grandson Huiyan is not as optimistic as him, nor is he as stupid. On the contrary, she was very sober-minded, and even knew that if Emperor Daye found out some clues, she didn't need to find any excuse at all, and she could just let them die here. After thinking about it, I secretly regretted in my heart that I shouldn't have entrusted him to Daye, and he who came to Daye with him not only failed to complete the task, but his life was not guaranteed at any time.

She must not die in Daye!

Thinking about it, the eldest grandson Huiyan began to perfunctory him, and when he reached out to untie his clothes and carried her to bed, he also endured it, and secretly plotted in his heart.

*****

When night came, Bao patiently accompanied the two children as before, until it was bedtime, the two children sat on the bed, holding their little quilts, and suddenly asked, "Mother, Daddy?" ”

They asked the same question last night, and Bao Neng smiled and replied that their father was out of Beijing on an errand and would come back tomorrow, but he didn't know how to answer tonight.

Kiss their little cheeks and say, "I'll be back tomorrow!" Bags and cakes, it's time to sleep. ”

When the two children lay down, they were still talking about seeing their father tomorrow or something. Po sighed and sat on the edge of the bed and patted them until they fell asleep before returning to their room.

It was time to go to bed, but Po had no sleepiness at all, he couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning in bed, and after finally falling asleep, he was woken up by a nightmare, and then sat up, got out of bed and drank some water, but he didn't feel sleepy.

She woke up like this one night, and finally got into the morning, with two dark circles under her eyes, dressed early in the morning, and sat in the main hall waiting for the city gate to open, and the guards to deliver the news to come in.

As soon as the morning dawned, a guard passed the news and sent it to two places: the Jin Palace, the Imperial Palace. Ah Bao and the emperor and prince in the palace all got the news that the snake venom had been cured, and the people were not awake yet!

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Ah Bao seemed to let go of the trouble in his heart all of a sudden, and the whole person sat down on the chair.

"Princess?" Yan asked back and brought her a cup of ginseng tea.

Ah Bao poured a few sips of tea, then wiped the cold sweat on his body, and asked the guard who came back to report, and asked, "How is the prince now?" How is your physical condition? ”

The guard replied: "Although the poison has been detoxified, but because of the delay, some of the poison has not been cleared, and the prince has not woken up yet." ”

"When will the doctor wake up?"

"Doctor Xie and several imperial doctors all said that the snake venom was extremely domineering, although the prince suppressed the poison in time, but the damage to the body was great, and I don't know when the prince will wake up."

In fact, the situation is even more serious than what Steward Liu said yesterday, yesterday the guards hurriedly came back to report, not much, and then they had to carry the doctor to save their lives, and ran away. Steward Liu was worried that Ah Bao, the princess, was out of proportion, so he naturally chose to say what he said.

After Xiao Lingshu was bitten by a snake yesterday, although he took the antidote pill configured by the antidote doctor in time, he didn't use it, the antidote pill was just to restrain ordinary poison, and it had little effect on this strange snake venom, and it could only prevent the spread of poisonous gas in time, but the person was already in a coma, and he didn't dare to move him casually, for fear of causing the snake venom to spread faster, so he could only find a nearby place to settle.

Later, after the antidote came, he had to spend a lot of time researching the toxicity to configure the antidote, and the time was delayed for a long time, and when the antidote was dispensed, the toxicity had already attacked the heart, destroying all the organs in Xiao Lingshu's body. So even if he is detoxified, because there is still no poison left, I don't know when he will wake up. Of course, it would be good if he could wake up as soon as possible, but I am afraid that he will be in a coma all the time, and then his body will weaken in the coma and die slowly.

Ah Bao's heart rose again, and when he heard the guard say that Xiao Lingshu was unconscious, he asked the guard to come back and tell her that he couldn't come back to have dinner with her today, his heart was sore and painful, his fingers clutched his sleeves, tight and loose, loose and tight, and then finally made a decision.

Po asked people to pack up their things and quietly packed the twins, who were still asleep, to his grandmother's house and handed them over to take care of him, while also leaving some guards behind to keep them safe. Then she directly changed into the complicated clothes on the □ and changed into a set of well-fitting men's clothes, so that people could go out of Beijing.

The movements of this series of cases were too fast, vigorous and resolute, so that Hua's mother couldn't react, and then she saw that her girl was already dressed in neat men's clothes, and she wore a draping veil hat on her head to cover her face, which made her think of the border, Ah Bao was often taken out of Jingcheng by Li Jiyao in men's clothes to hunt, as if she had become a wild girl.

Ah Bao stretched out his hand to ask the maid to help tie the cufflinks, and then instructed the housekeeper Liu who rushed over: "I don't know that Lu Dao will go out for a few days, no matter who comes to the palace, they will say that I am not feeling well, and it is not suitable to meet guests!" The house will trouble Steward Liu! ”

Steward Liu was stunned and nodded stunned, until he saw that the princess of their family was riding on a horse like this, and went out of the house from the back door with a few guards, intending to quietly go out of Beijing, and suddenly wanted to shout: it!

The Mid-Autumn Festival sunshine was not warm, a few horses galloped on the official road, splashing a puff of smoke and dust, and the people who were rushing to the market on the side of the road heard the sound of horses' hooves from a distance, and had leaned to the side of the road with interest. Soon, I saw several horses passing quickly, and the knight in the front was dressed in a simple green coat, with only some patterns embroidered on the placket and hem, and was a little short compared to the knight at the back, and he still wore a hat on his head, and before he could see clearly, the man passed.

The horse galloped all the way, and when it came to a fork in the road, Abao tightened the reins and asked, "Which way?" ”

The guard who led the way was already numb, and pointed the way mechanically, and then saw their princess flick on the horse's buttocks, and the horse rushed forward like a cloud, very fast. Before, they were still a little worried in their hearts, what should they do if they run so fast and fall off the horse? It soon became clear that they were worried, and that the princess's riding skills were so good that they wondered when she had learned them.

Finally arrived at the destination.

Po sat on his horse, and when he watched the guards knock on the door, he suddenly remembered what he had missed and asked, "Who is this place?" ”

"The Ministry of Servants, Lang Wenfu, Bezhuang!" The guard replied.

Hearing this, Ah Bao remembered that Miss Wen, but he didn't expect such a fate.

After knocking on the door, the door of Wenfu Beizhuang soon opened, and the doorman in Beizhuang saw the guards who came to knock on the door, and quickly recognized him, and hurriedly invited them in, feeling a little uneasy, I don't know who was injured yesterday and sent over, and so many guards were dispatched. Then I looked at the man in Tsing Yi who had been respectfully invited by the guards to dismount, his face covered by a hat, and only when the wind rose, when the white veil was lifted, his white chin and pale pink lips were exposed.

The guards surrounded Ah Bao and walked to a courtyard in Wenfu Beizhuang, where the Praetorian Guards in civilian clothes were guarded, who also recognized the guards of the Jin Palace's mansion and directly let them pass.

Soon arrived at the destination, opened the door, a burst of medicine smelled in the nose, and there were also several guards guarding the room, one of whom was decocting medicine. Now outside, the guards don't dare to use the people in this village, and they do many things themselves.

When they saw Ah Bao take down the hat on his head, the guards led by Xi Yuan were a little dumbfounded, and there was only one thought in their hearts: Why is the princess here?

Ah Bao glanced around and asked, "How is the situation of the prince?" What about the miracle doctor? "Compared with the imperial doctor in the palace, Ah Bao still trusts the doctor the most.

"The doctor didn't sleep all night last night, and after dispensing the antidote for the prince at dawn, he went to sleep." Xi Yuan replied, his face was also very bad, from yesterday to now, he has not squinted, and has been staying here.

Ah Bao listened, nodded, and walked inside, Xi Yuan didn't follow.

Entering the inner room, Po came to the bed, and saw the pale man lying on the bed, he had never seen him so pale and weak, and he was so sad that he wanted to cry. After watching quietly for a while, his body sat on the embroidered pier in front of the bed as if he was weak, and then he reached out and pulled his hair scattered on the pillow, and slowly lowered his body, his face pressed against his face, and felt his light breathing, and his heart calmed down.

"Xiao Lingshu ......," she called softly, and he didn't respond.

She looked at him stupidly, not moving her eyes for a moment, until there was a knock on the door outside, and Xi Yuan said loudly: "Princess, the medicine has been decocted." ”

Ah Bao moved his stiff body, got up and walked to the door, and took the medicine presented by Xi Yuan.

"Princess, the prince is in a coma, I'm afraid it's not good to pour medicine, but do you need to go to Beizhuang to borrow a maid to help you?" Xi Yuan asked, hesitated, and said, "I heard that there is still Miss Wen living in this village." "Ah Bao once saved Miss Wen, which is why Xi Yuanquan chose Wenfu Beizhuang.

"No need."

Ah Bao put the medicine aside, and asked the guards to bring wet water over, personally wringed a hot towel to wipe the face of the unconscious person, and touched the slightly cool skin on his face, and felt uncomfortable again.

After waiting for the temperature of the medicine to become ingestible, Ah Bao took a spoon to feed him, and found that his mouth was closed and he couldn't feed it at all, and then listened to what Xi Yuan said about pouring him medicine just now, his brows furrowed, and he was a little annoyed in his heart, and then he was a little helpless, and he was a little distressed. If it weren't really a last resort, I believe Xi Yuan wouldn't have the courage to irrigate him.

Po sat in front of the bed, wiped off the liquid that had slipped from the corner of his lips with a towel, and then took the medicine in his mouth that was so bitter that she wanted to vomit that he leaned over to feed him. After feeding a few mouthfuls, when he found that he seemed to be consciously spitting out the medicinal juice, Ah Bao was a little happy, knowing that he was bitter and should be conscious.

"Lord, lord...... Xiao Lingshu ......"

Seeing that there was no response, Ah Bao took another mouthful of medicine, bowed his head to feed him, and slowly fed the medicine into his mouth. When she straightened up and was about to take another sip of the potion, she suddenly found that the eyes of the person on the bed were slightly open, and he seemed to be looking at her a little confused.

"Lord Wang, are you awake?" Po exclaimed in surprise.

His eyes slowly lifted, as if trying to open them, and the weak voice followed with a struggle: "Ah...... Treasure ......"

Ah Bao answered, pursed her lips and wanted to laugh, and wanted to cry, she didn't know how rare it was for Xiao Lingshu to be awake at this time, her heart was ecstatic, her body was still sitting in front of the bed, her eyes did not take her eyes off his face, and she opened her mouth to call the person outside the door.

Xi Yuan heard the call and hurriedly came in, and when he hurried over, he also found that Xiao Lingshu had opened his eyes, his heart was shocked, and he ran out of the palace like another gust of wind, brought a imperial doctor in, and kicked a guard to dig up the doctor from the bed.

After the Divine Doctor Xie came, Xiao Lingshu couldn't hold it anymore and closed his eyes and fell asleep, and the Divine Doctor Xie asked with some uncertainty, "Are you really awake?" ”

"Wake up! I've seen it with the Xi guards! Bao said busily.

Only then did Doctor Xie notice Ah Bao, who was standing next to him in men's clothes, and his eyes were about to pop out in surprise, and then he was pulled directly to the bed by Xi Yuan, asking him to hurry up and see if there was nothing wrong when he woke up, and it would not be like they said, because he didn't know when he woke up, his body was eroded by snake venom in his sleep, and he died of weakness.

After the doctor checked Xiao Lingshu's pulse, he checked it again and said, "The situation has stabilized, but this snake venom is too domineering, and it is extremely damaging to the prince's body, so he will have to lie in bed for at least a few months." After that, he scratched his head again, and he didn't know how Xiao Lingshu suddenly woke up? Could it be that his willpower is so strong that even this domineering snake venom can be restrained? It's better to save the worst from happening.

Although the doctor Xie Shen and several imperial doctors did not understand, they were still relieved because of this situation, and several imperial doctors thought, great, King Jin is awake, if the emperor asks about the situation, they can also answer.

Then everyone discussed when to return to Beijing, and after discussion, they all decided to stay for another day and return early tomorrow morning. Those assassins still don't know if Lu Dao will come again, or it is safer in the capital, and if they use any medicine, they also have it in the medicine warehouse in the palace, so they don't need to take the time to transfer it. Now that people have woken up, there is no need to be afraid of anything.

Ah Bao was in the house, and he also heard their discussion, so he called Xi Yuan in and asked him to send someone to inform Miss Wen who lived in the village to meet the master.

Xi Yuan took the order and left, and soon got a reply, knowing that she was here, and Miss Wen didn't have to avoid idleness, she came over in person.

Ah Bao went out to greet her, Miss Wen came over with two maids, and along the way, Tingting curled up, like a weak willow supporting the wind, elegant and demure.

Miss Wen's face was a little red, and when she saw Ah Bao, who was standing in the corridor to greet her, she obviously messed up the lady's lotus step, and her face turned even redder, and then she gave a salute and said delicately: "I've seen Princess Jin." ”

Ah Bao came over to support her, and then found that her face was even redder, and she let go of her hand casually, and said with a smile: "Miss Wen, my prince was assassinated yesterday, and I took the liberty of disturbing her, please forgive me." ”

Miss Wen secretly looked at her, and when she saw that she was dressed in men's clothes, she actually added a bit of handsome atmosphere, she looked very handsome, and her heart was even more deer, and she blushed and said: "It's nothing!" The princess also saved me once, and the prince was killed, but he borrowed a place, and it was no big deal. ”

When the two of them arrived at a side hall and sat down, a maid served refreshments, and then quietly retreated.

Miss Wen politely inquired about Xiao Lingshu's injury, and when she learned that she had woken up, she breathed a sigh of relief and folded her hands to thank the Buddha for his blessing. When she heard Ah Bao say that they would leave tomorrow and that she was going to spend the night here today, Miss Wen pointed to a maid beside her and said, "This is my intimate maid Green Willow, let her serve the princess first." ”

Miss Wen, who is not shy, is still very reliable and arranged very appropriately. She saw Ah Bao dressed in men's clothes, and she also knew that the King of Jin was injured and had an inside story, and the princess of Jin should have come over to cover people's eyes, and she didn't want people to know, so she also helped to hide it, except for a few people in the village, no one else knew the identity of King Jin, and she was afraid that Ah Bao, the princess, would have no one to serve, so she sent a personal maid to serve.

Ah Bao thanked her again, and Miss Wen smiled softly, which made her a little embarrassed, thinking that she would have to back up her gifts and go to Wenfu after returning to Beijing.

After chatting with Miss Wen for a while, Ah Bao Fang knew that she had been living in Beizhuang these days, because something happened to Wenfu, and Mrs. Wen sent her to live in Beizhuang for a few days to avoid it, but she didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing so coincidentally. Ah Bao's heart moved slightly, and he didn't take the liberty to ask what happened to the Wen Mansion, this kind of thing will be known after inquiring after returning to Beijing.

Miss Wen stayed for a short time, and soon left, and told Po that if there was any need, send someone to find her. It made Po funny and grateful, but it was to save her once, and this girl took it to heart.

After sending Miss Wen away, Ah Bao returned to the room to see Xiao Lingshu, although he was extremely tired, he still took care of him and fed him medicine. In particular, feeding medicine is a big project, and when he is unconscious, his teeth are clenched, and he has to pour it down. And when she is conscious, she feels the bitter taste and vomits medicine, which makes her tired and sweaty.

After feeding the fourth medicine of the day, Ah Bao was also dipped in the medicinal juice, and Lu Liu intimately asked people to prepare hot water for her to bathe.

In the evening, Xi Yuan, who had slept all afternoon, came over and told Bao Jingli that the prince had sent a message that some Praetorian Guards would be sent over tomorrow to escort Xiao Lingshu back to Beijing, and that there might be assassins tonight.

Ah Bao frowned and asked, "Can you find out who assassinated the prince?" ”

Xi Yuan shook his head, hesitated, and said: "The assassin didn't have any signs on his body, he obviously came prepared, but the green snake that bit the prince, the doctor took it to study, and said that it was somewhat familiar, as if he had seen this kind of snake in Nanqi." ”

Hearing the word "Nanqi", Ah Bao's radar was fully turned on, and he and Xi Yuan stared.

Xi Yuan continued: "Rest assured, Princess, my subordinates have already ordered someone to contact Yu Fei in Jiangnan and ask him to go to Nanqi to investigate this kind of snake. "If the evidence is conclusive, Daye and Nanqi finally no longer have to abide by the agreement set by their ancestors, and they have an excuse to go to war.

Ah Bao sneered, her first reaction was that it must be the ghost of the Prince of Nanqi and his party who were still in the capital, and she felt that with the stupid IQ of the Prince of Nanqi, it was estimated that she could do it.

Xi Yuan knew what she was thinking, in fact, he also sent someone to check on Prince Nanqi and his party as soon as possible.

After the two of them thought for a while, Xi Yuan said again: "The princess will return to Beijing tomorrow, and I hope that the princess will still dress up like this, so don't let people know her identity." Fortunately, this time the princess quietly left Beijing, and there was another group of people outside Beijing to deal with the princess! "It's so lucky, even he can't help but praise it.

Ah Bao frowned, looked at him, and asked in a deep voice, "Who?" ”

"Emperor of Southern Qi!"

Ah Bao was not surprised at all, what was unexpected was Xi Yuan's intelligence.

Xi Yuan didn't answer her, some things should not tell her too much, over the years, the monitoring of Nanqi has never been relaxed, and naturally he also knows about the movements of the Emperor of Nanqi. Especially after knowing that the Emperor of Southern Qi had issued a killing order against Xiao Lingshu's wife and children, Xi Yuanda felt that the Emperor of Southern Qi was really a pervert in his heart.

He didn't expect her to come running like this, and he was surprised to see her appear in men's clothes. And because of her arrival, Xiao Lingshu woke up, and he couldn't help but feel how deep her influence was on Xiao Lingshu. They may not know about the divine doctor, but he was outside the door at the time, paying attention to the situation inside at any time, and naturally saw a series of routine things that Po did after she came, as well as the process of her feeding medicine.

He believed that it was because of Po's presence and touch that the man regained some consciousness, and he was in good condition. Therefore, Xi Yuan also admired her for daring to come and being able to hide from those Southern Qi dead soldiers who were guarding outside the capital. Probably no one would have thought that a typical lady in the Daye Dynasty would do this.

On the second day, after the Praetorian Guards came, Xiao Lingshu, who was in a coma, was directly hugged into the carriage by Xi Yuan, and the group left Wenjia Biezhuang and returned to the capital.
