Chapter 48: The Emperor is Poisoned
My gaze swept over the shadowy people, clenched my palms, lowered my voice and asked, "Do you know what kind of poison it is?"
Shen Qi shook his head: "I don't know yet, Weichen has induced vomiting to the emperor as soon as possible, and also used silver needles to 'force' out some poison." The emperor's life will not be in danger for the time being, but he will not be able to wake up for a while, and if the time drags on for a long time, I am afraid that he will ......"
My mind was dizzy, I tried my best to calm down, and asked in a deep voice: "What should I do now? How can I save the emperor, are you sure?"
Shen Qidao: "If you can find the person who poisoned you, you can find the antidote; even if there is no antidote, you can know what poison the emperor has, and you can also prescribe the right 'medicine', but the time must be hurried, if the emperor does not get better after twelve hours, it will be more than lucky." ”
"Twelve hours, okay! I'll give it to you first, and the mourning family will go and find out the crazy person!" I turned around and looked at the 'spring equinox', and when I left the dormitory, I saw that Qihuai had called all the palace people who were serving the emperor over, and knelt on the ground to listen to the fate.
I looked at Qi Huai: "Have you ever asked what the result is?"
Qi Huai said: "The imperial doctor decreed that the emperor was poisoned by eating unclean things, and the emperor used dim sum before the last dynasty, and all the people who had access to that plate of dim sum in the small kitchen are here, but no one can say why." ”
I turned cold and said fiercely: "Since I can't say it clearly, then I don't have to waste time here!
"The Empress Dowager spares her life! The slave really doesn't know what's going on. There was a cry of pleading.
I can't manage so much, if I don't find the antidote within twelve hours, Run's 'life' will be lost, and there will be a big 'chaos' at that time!
"You say you don't know what's going on? Where is the person who tries the emperor?" "The emperor will have someone who tries the dishes at every meal, and he will personally test each dish before he dares to give it to the emperor. But I haven't heard of anyone else being poisoned, and it's clear that the poison was given after trying it!
A little eunuch crawled out on his knees and said, "The slave Tian Gui is trying the food for the emperor, and this morning, it was also the slave who tried the dim sum for the emperor, but, but the dim sum is nothing! Otherwise, the slave would not be fine." ”
I sneered, "Just because you're okay doesn't mean that the snack is okay!"
"This ......" everyone present fell silent.
Qi Huai tugged at my sleeve and said in a low voice: "I also went to the kitchen to check the rest of the dim sum, all of which are non-toxic, and that dim sum is a treat, will the eunuch who tried the dish happen not to try the poisonous, and the emperor will eat it?"
With beads of sweat on my forehead, I nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, but it's even more difficult to check!
He just saw the emperor and went out, presumably to appease those courtiers. Qi Huai frowned and glanced at the kneeling palace people, "Poisoning the emperor is the crime of exterminating the nine clans, and this person's courage is too great!"
My heart moved, since I had taken such a big risk to commit poisoning, there must be a great 'temptation' and 'confusion'!
After a while, Ziling came wearing armor, and I said, "Take your people and search the residences of these eunuchs and palace 'women' one by one! If there is any suspicion, immediately escort them to the palace office!"
"Yes!" Ziling shouted, and led a team of people to search.
After searching for an hour, some gold and silver jewelry was indeed found, and after inspection, it was found that it was something from the Nanxun Temple, but the man only admitted to stealing, but did not admit to poisoning. I was furious, and immediately ordered Ziling to escort him to Gong Zhengji, and let Yang Chang treat him well!
"It looks like these things do look like stolen goods, not the benefits he receives," he said worriedly. ”
I gritted a mouthful of silver teeth and said fiercely: "Since the palace can't find out, go outside the palace to investigate! Many of these people are dragging their families outside the palace, and they are all checked by the mourning family! Also, spread the mourning family's decree to block the 'gate' of the city, and no one is allowed to enter or leave at will! The mourning family must find out the madman and break the corpse into thousands of pieces!"
Seeing me 'excited' like this, Qihuai hurriedly held my hand and said with relief: "Auntie, don't worry, things will definitely fall out." Moreover, there are also people in the Imperial Medical Department who are well versed in 'medicine', and the emperor will definitely be fine. ”
I looked at his clear and worried eyes, let out a long sigh, and said, "Teacher, if something happens to the emperor...... I didn't say any more, and even I didn't know what would happen at that time.
Qi Huai looked at me seriously and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I will do my best to protect your safety." ”
I shook my head and said, "It's not just me, it's the peace of the world." I also held his hand and said, "You are the only person he chooses to take care of on his deathbed, I don't want his country to be stolen by outsiders, you have promised him, and I also hope that you will promise me not to let his country fall aside." ”
He only hesitated slightly, and then said solemnly: "I promise you too, I ......"
"Why did the Eighth Emperor Brother promise so happily?" I don't know when, Qi Min stood at the 'door', his eyes were as cold as a knife staring at our hands holding each other.
Qihuai hurriedly let go of me, and I also 'pumped' my hand, and asked unhappily......: "Where have you been?"
Qi Min sneered: "It turns out that the Empress Dowager still knows that the emperor's life and death are uncertain, but she can't wait to marry me and the Eighth Emperor Brother!"
I was furious: "What do you mean, Regent!"
Qi Min said coldly: "What do you mean that the Empress Dowager doesn't understand, but Wei Chen has already seen it!" His eyes flashed over Qi Huai and me, snorted coldly, and walked straight into the dormitory.
I'm so angry that I'm choking, when has this been, he still has leisure and jealousy!
Before long, the people who searched outside the palace came back to restore their lives, but there was no result.
I watched the 'bed' getting weaker and weaker, and my mood fell to a low point. To add insult to injury, several old ministers asked to see him, saying that the emperor is in extreme danger now, and I am afraid that he will not be able to support it tomorrow. In any case, they are also the sons of the emperor. The implication is that I am afraid that Qihuai and Qihui will make a hindrance!
My heart was in a mess, and I immediately refuted them with a cold attitude: "The imperial doctors of the Imperial Doctor's Department are doing their best to treat them, and before the last moment, are you like giving up? If the order is made at this time, what will happen if the emperor wakes up tomorrow? The adults should still abide by their duties, and there is no need to worry too much about other things!"
Seeing that they didn't think so, I immediately ordered Ziling to send Yu Linwei to monitor the movements of important ministers in the court, and immediately take care of them if there was any change!
In just one day, the people of the whole capital were panicked, and the people in the south felt that they were in danger, and there was a tendency for the world to be 'chaotic'.
And as the sky slowly darkened, and Run's weakened, I felt more and more hopeless. Perhaps, Run really can't escape this catastrophe...... And where should I go then?
