Chapter 203: Assassination Critically ill
After dinner, Miao Miao and the others each stayed in temporary tents and prepared to rest.
But there's no need for a vigil tonight. Because of the relationship between the poison doctors, a layer of poison powder was sprinkled around everyone's temporary camp, and they were killed. Everyone had already taken the antidote in advance, so let's see which ones who didn't have long eyes came to die.
Sure enough, in the second half of the night, the crowd heard the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground outside the camp, accompanied by muffled grunts and groans of pain.
Spruce Miao Miao and the others were the first to come out of the tent.
"Jiao Li is worthy of being a poison doctor, just a handful of medicine powder, he has solved these killers with martial arts." Miao Miao looked at the extremely popular appearance and praised Jiao Li.
"Of course, it's only fifty people, and this little bit of medicinal powder is quite a lot." Jiao Li raised his head arrogantly and said proudly.
"Ah Da, go see where they come from." Spruce said to Ah Da on the side.
"Yes." Ah Da received the order and walked towards the dead people.
Ah Da crouched down and looked closer, looking for clues on the killer's body.
"Sixth Master, I found this." Ah Da searched the killer's body for a long time, and finally found a string of pearls.
This string of pearls is round and the same size, and at first glance it is a fine deep-sea pearl.
"Pearl bracelet?" Spruce took it and looked at it.
"Being able to take out this pearl worth 10,000 gold proves that the person hired has strong financial resources, and the rest of the princes all meet this condition. However, it is possible to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to find and like it. I'm afraid that there are only two princes. Dark one analyzed.
Dark One has been by the side of the lord for many years, and he also knows all the princes very well, as far as he knows, only the second prince, who loves pearls like an obsession, will appreciate such a precious pearl casually. You must know that the second prince's family specially set up a warehouse, just to collect his precious pearls.
"It turned out that the second brother made the first move, which is in line with his impulsive idiot character." Spruce scoffed at the corpses all over the ground. "I just don't know how angry he should be when his assassination failed this time."
"Since he can't hold his breath so much, why don't we just take him first?" Miao Miao said.
The other princes have to deal with them one by one, and since these two princes are the first to provoke, then let him be fulfilled.
"Okay, listen to Miao Miao." Spruce looked at Miao Miao dotingly.
"Sprinkle this on them, pack them up and get ready for bed." Miao Miao took out a bottle of medicinal powder and handed it to Ah Da.
In this deep mountain and old forest, there are many wild beasts, and it is not good to attract jackals, tigers and leopards to the smell of blood.
"Yes." Ada took the powder and walked towards the corpse.
It wasn't until Ah Da sprinkled the medicinal powder on the corpse and looked at the slowly melting corpse that everyone looked at Miao Miao with a shocked face.
Ah Da took the powder just now, but he just thought it was a powder that could cover the smell of blood, but he didn't expect that it could melt the corpse.
The corpse slowly grew smaller, eventually turning into a transparent droplet of water that seeped into the soil. No one would have thought that an adult corpse would have only a drop of water left.
"Oh my God, this is amazing. Miao Miao, tell me, how did you do it? Jiao Li looked excited, approached Miao Miao's side, and asked.
"I'd love to know what's in that powder." Changmeng followed and asked curiously.
"This is another bottle of corpse powder, why don't you give it to you to study and study?" Miao Miao asked.
I told them everything, so I was still curious, and my interest in exploring was gone.
"Really, are you really willing to give it to us?" Jiao Li carefully took the corpse powder, and stopped Miao Miao in disbelief.
This corpse powder is very precious as soon as it looks like it, not to mention the ingredients in it, just saying that this packaging of the jade bottle costs tens of thousands of gold, which is also too pleasant.
"Well, don't worry." Miao Miao patted Jiao Li's shoulder and said seriously.
"Then I'll go to study it with Changmeng first, and you guys play slowly." Jiao Li squeezed her eyebrows at Miao Miao, called Changmeng, and walked into the tent.
"These two." Spruce watched the two of them move with a smirk. "Miao Miao, the one who disturbed people's dreams is dead, you can go sleep for a while."
"Alright, I'll go in first." Miao Miao nodded and walked into the tent to rest.
On the way back, everyone encountered seven waves of assassins, but they were all easily solved by everyone. Although he failed to leave a living mouth and was tortured and questioned, the next tragic encounter of the second prince was already ironclad.
When everyone returned to the imperial city, they learned that the condition of the lord of the country, who had been improving, had suddenly worsened, perhaps because the person behind the poison couldn't wait, so he increased the dose of poison.
The lord of the country has not yet cleared the remaining poison, and now he has suffered a lot of poisonous erosion, but I am afraid that his body and bones will not be able to hold on.
Spruce Miao Miao and Miao Miao didn't have time to rest, so they rushed to the palace with their waiting father-in-law.
"Father, how are you, father?" Spruce quickly stepped into the dormitory, came to the lord of the country, and asked anxiously.
"Me, cough! I'm fine. The lord looked at the spruce with relief and said with difficulty.
Only this son cares about him sincerely.
"Miao Miao, can you help my father see how he is?" Spruce looked at Miao Miao pleadingly.
Last time, Miao Miao had a way to heal, and I hope that Miao Miao will also have a way to heal.
"I do my best." Miao Miao said. "The lord of the country stretches out his hand."
Miao Miao took the pulse of the lord of the country and carefully checked the physical condition of the lord of the country.
"It's so much worse than before." Miao Miao said. "If it weren't for the internal pills I left, I'm afraid it would be"
This time, the poisoned person was determined to die for the lord of the country, so he added at least a month's amount at a time, and if there was no pill to protect his heart in time, I was afraid that the lord of the country would not be able to wait for the spruce to come back.
"Huh. The most ruthless emperor family, when I ascended to this position, I knew that there would be this day, but I didn't expect this day to come so quickly. The lord said self-deprecatingly.
"Father, what did you eat to get poisoned this time?" Spruce looked at Hezhangyun distressedly and asked.
"It's a bowl of ginseng soup from the imperial dining room." He Zhangyun said.
"However, didn't Miao Miao say that you can't eat anything else. What's more, your current body simply can't withstand the nourishing ginseng soup. Spruce said.
Knowing that you can't do it, isn't it looking for your own guilt.
"I don't know anything, it's just that Xiao Er specially asked someone to prepare it for me, and I didn't think about it that much, so I just." He Zhangyun said.
He didn't expect that the child he loved so much on weekdays would actually do this to him.
"Second brother, second brother again. He's so ruthless. Spruce wanted to kill him with a slap at this time, what a ruthless and unrighteous beast.
"Then why don't you let people arrest him?" Miao Miao asked.
"He committed the crime of killing the king, and of course I will not let him go. It's a pity that he didn't come in person that day, it was just a message from his subordinates, and he couldn't count them. He Zhangyun sneered. His good grandfather was the prime minister of the court, and I am now sick in bed, and the court and the central government are controlled by him and the general, and there is no way to deal with him without evidence. ”
"Then father, you will get better quickly, take back the power of the country, and punish the second emperor." Spruce said.
"Father is old, this crane country should be the world of you young people." He Zhangyun sighed and said with relief. "At least Xiaoliu didn't treat his father ruthlessly, and his father was already satisfied."
"Little Liu, how did you go to Yucheng this time to recruit your subordinates?" He Zhangyun asked.
Although he was bedridden, he was still very concerned about spruce. So as soon as the spruce was out of the imperial city, Hezhangyun knew it. If it weren't for the fact that Hezhangyun also sent people to protect the spruce, I am afraid that everyone will encounter more assassinations on the road.
"Erchen has successfully recruited a miracle doctor and a poison doctor." Spruce is quite proud, all of this is the credit of his fiancée Miao Miao.
Although Spruce hopes that he can succeed in doing all this, Miao Miao can do it, and he is even happier. Anyway, Miao Miao is her fiancée, and the more capable Miao Miao is, the better it will be for him.
"Oh? Is it? That's great. "Hezhangyun is very happy for the spruce.
This miracle doctor and poison doctor have been uncertain, and when he wanted to recruit the two, he threw out countless favorable conditions but failed. Now that he has been successfully recruited by his sixth son, this is really good news.
People like the divine doctor and poison doctor who are unruly, do not play cards according to common sense, and are not enemies or friends, can only rest assured if they are drawn into their own camp. Otherwise, maybe one day you will be in the opponent's camp and stab you, and it will be troublesome.
"Let's not talk about these things for now, let Miao Miao remove the toxin for you, and I will feel at ease." Spruce said.
"The medicinal bath in the past few days has been gradual, but the poison of the country lord is too serious now, and it is almost irreparable. So taking it slow doesn't work at all. The medicinal bath we are going to soak today may be hundreds of times more painful than the previous one, are you ready? Miao Miao asked.
There are so many toxins that there is simply no time to get rid of them slowly. Maybe before the removal is complete, he will be poisoned and killed. This time, I can only take a risk and increase the dose. To be honest, even Miao Miao herself was not sure about the next medicinal bath.
"I'm ready. If I don't succeed, I have no choice but to bite the bullet. He Zhangyun said.
To be honest, he still remembers the last medicated bath vividly. Especially the body is like hundreds of insects and ants devouring flesh and blood, hurting into the bones and brains.
"Okay, I'll let the dark handful buy the missing herbs, and then we can start right away." Miao Miao said.
This enhanced version requires the use of several yellow herbs, and the rest are all ordinary medicinal herbs. Ordinary medicinal herbs Miao Miao has almost no stock here.
"Okay, then I'll go and ask the palace people to prepare the barrel and hot water." Spruce walked out the door and helped Miao Miao get ready.
"Gotta hold on, definitely." Miao Miao instructed again before the two of them entered the cubicle.
"I'll take care of my father." Spruce Chong Miao smiled, pushed the wheelchair, and walked in.
Not long after the two of them entered, there was a painful wail from Hezhangyun inside. How long does it take for an iron-clad man to make such a miserable sound.
"Hold on, father." Spruce stood beside the barrel, cheering for the lord of the country.
He Zhangyun, who was about to fall asleep, heard Spruce's words and quickly woke up. Yes, I can't sleep yet, but I still have to watch Xiaoliu ascend the throne. I still have a lot of things to say to Xiaoliu, and there is still a lot of love that has not been compensated to Xiaoliu, I am unwilling.
Miao Miao waited anxiously outside for the reaction inside, and when she heard Hezhangyun's wailing getting weaker and weaker, she slowly let go of her worries.
The lord of the country has finally passed.
"Now that all the toxins in the body of the country have been removed, you only need to take a few days of pills to fully recover. However, this is only to eliminate toxins, not to prevent all poisons. If someone poisons them in the future, they will also be poisoned. Therefore, the lord of the country must be especially careful with his meals in the future. Miao Miao said.
Last time, the lord of the country was critically ill, but he drank ginseng soup by himself, and I don't know if he can change it after this lesson.
"I see, I don't trust anyone but you now. They all come with a purpose, they all come for power. He Zhangyun said.
Who can resist the temptation of the emperor? He Zhangyun didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past.
"Hey, looking at your palace like this, I'm afraid it's very complicated. I'll leave you a life-saving pill. This pill, if you have an emergency, or if you are poisoned as today, you will be poisoned immediately, and then you will directly take the pill, which can ensure that you will be able to breathe a breath at least within a week. Miao Miao continued.
There is a delay of time, in case Miao Miao and the others are far away outside the imperial city, there is also a time to rush back.
"Okay, I got it." He Zhangyun looked at Miao Miao gratefully, put the life-saving pill into his chest with dignity, and patted it vigorously, as if to prove that it was very safe here.
"Ah Da, please use this to collect some toxins secreted by the lord of the country, and I will take them back to let them play." Miao Miao said.
The toxin is in the medicated bath bucket, but such a large bucket of bath water is too embarrassing.
"If there is anything, send someone to find me in the other courtyard, father, Miao Miao and I will retire first." Spruce said.
"Okay, go back and rest." He Zhangyun knew that they were rushing back non-stop, so he must have been very tired along the way. It's better to let the two of them go back to recuperate.
"Son-in-law/daughter-in-law farewell." The two of them walked around the Imperial Garden and headed for the way they had come.
"How is it, how is the condition of the lord?" As soon as they saw Miao Miao and the two come back, Changmeng and Jiao Li couldn't wait to know the result.
"Well, I promised to bring you back the toxin, you can study it slowly. It is better to be able to work out antidotes and defenses. Miao Miao said. (To be continued.) )
