Chapter 1141: The Chief

Hearing that he could get the medical book that recorded the relevant poisons, Xie Mulin also breathed a sigh of relief.

She asked the county lord of Yongping: "With this medical book and in a relatively safe environment, the poison on the four princes should be fine, right?" There are so many doctors here, and there is a way to detoxify, but it will not solve this problem. ”

The county lord of Yongping sighed: "The truth is this truth, but the imperial doctor who has read the medical book said that he vaguely remembers that the antidote method of this poison is very cumbersome, and there are a lot of medicinal materials needed. At the moment, it is not clear when the Fourth Highness was poisoned, if it is a recent matter, the toxicity is not deep, it is not difficult to understand. But if he has been poisoned for a long time, the poisonous roots are rooted in the body, and if he wants to completely remove it, it will not be so easy! ”

It sounds like a lot of trouble. Xie Mulin hurriedly said: "Since when the fourth prince left the palace, several imperial doctors diagnosed and treated him, and they all said that his body was fine, so it must have been poisoned after leaving the palace?" ”

If the four princes were poisoned after leaving the palace, then the person who poisoned him was either a confidant he brought with him or a henchman sent by the emperor to protect him, or one of the queen mother's entourage. Either way, it's enough of a headache.

The county lord of Yongping said in a low voice: "Now God knows what's going on?" The symptoms of poisoning are not conspicuous, if it weren't for the fact that the imperial doctor happened to know something about it, he might not be able to find out that His Royal Highness had been poisoned! Another old lady doctor who has served the Queen Mother for decades didn't see it. Before His Royal Highness left the palace, several imperial doctors who diagnosed his pulse, but their medical skills were limited and they didn't find out that he was poisoned? Not to mention...... Since there are so many unguardable spies in the palace, they will kill people if they want to kill people, and poison them if they want to, who can guarantee that there will be no accomplices in the hospital?! ”

If even the Imperial Physicians had the accomplices of these ill-intentioned people, then it would be too dangerous in the palace. Does it really matter that the emperor lives in such an environment?

King Yan has been in a state of anxiety since he received his son's letter. He discussed with his wife how to deal with it, but he hid it from his daughter. If it weren't for the fact that the county lord of Yongping was good at finding out the news, and Princess Yan loved her daughter, she wouldn't have been able to inquire about the inside story overnight. Now King Yan is worried about the health of the four princes, and on the other hand, he is worried about the physical condition of the queen mother under the hurry, and at the same time he has to worry about the emperor's safety in the capital. He had already passed the latest news into the palace through his secret folding channel as soon as possible. He is confident that he can protect the safety of the Queen Mother and the Four Princes, but only if the poison on the latter's body can be unraveled!

If it can't be unraveled, the throne of the four princes may not be so stable. Even if the emperor is optimistic about this young son, he must consider whether he will have a negative impact on the rule of the imperial family if he is a short-lived person.

I don't know who is behind the poisoning?! Is it the crown prince or the third prince? King Yan and his wife both felt that the third prince didn't seem to have this ability, and he could manipulate so many people to stir up trouble in the palace, but the prince didn't seem to have this IQ! They all felt that maybe this was designed by Empress Cao on her deathbed, so that the crown prince and the Cao family would retreat to advance, avoid the battle for succession, and retain their strength, and then the second prince would succeed, the third prince would have something happen again, lose the right to inherit, and the fourth prince would lose his lifespan. Even if he is reluctant to reinstate the crown prince, the courtiers will play to convince him!

Although the crown prince has not been deposed now, and willfully disobeys the plan set by his mother and his mother's parents, the conspiracy against other princes continues to be carried out.

King Yan was very angry, and said to Princess Yan: "You shouldn't have believed Empress Cao in the first place!" She has done so many heartbreaking things for the Cao family and the crown prince, how can she be willing to give up the storage position?! All this is just a conspiracy of her to retreat into advance! ”

The lord of Yongping learned about his father's worries from his mother, and his heart was also extremely anxious. She also hates Queen Cao and the Cao family to death now, and she feels that the Cao family has worked so hard to keep the prince on the throne, but the latter is a stupid and lustful straw bag, if it wasn't for the Cao family's girls, where would she have such good luck?!

She said to Xie Mulin hatefully: "Things have come to this point, our family must do our best to cure the Fourth Highness!" The conspiracy of the Cao family must not be allowed to succeed! They have even resorted to this method, and I don't know if they will poison the emperor in the future! If they really make a comeback, we won't have a good life in Yanwangfu! My father has guarded the frontier for many years, and he has led his soldiers to fight bloodily, with countless casualties, but it is not for this kind of vicious villain to corrupt the country! ”

Shermulin was silent. To be honest, she knew that the strength of the Cao family was still very strong, and she also knew that Empress Cao had been the master of the Six Palaces for many years, and it was impossible for her to have no power left, but she still felt that the strength of the three princes was underestimated a lot. You know, in the previous life, this master was the ultimate winner!

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the Cao family also did so many things in the previous life, and as a result, they annoyed the emperor, and in the end, they did not end up well, so they asked the third prince to pick up the cheap. But in the current situation, it is not a smart thing to only regard the Cao family as the culprit and ignore the existence of the three princes.

To be careful, it is better to simply treat everyone equally.

Xie Mulin said to the county lord of Yongping: "The most important thing now is to get rid of the poison of the four princes first, as long as he recovers his health, everything will be easy." Investigating who is behind the scenes, poisoning the minions, or revenge or whatever, are all for later. The Queen Mother's ship is estimated to arrive in Beiping soon, and the follow-up matters must be prepared quickly. The situation of the four princes cannot be leaked, but the doctors and medicinal materials for treatment must be in place. Is there anything I can do to help? ”

The county lord of Yongping calmed down when he heard this: "Yes, I came here to find my sister-in-law, and I came to ask you for help." She took out a piece of paper from her sleeve pocket and handed it to Xie Mulin, "This is a possible medicinal herb, my brother asked the imperial doctors from there, and ordered someone to ride a fast horse overnight to send it, and it only arrived this morning." Some of the common medicinal materials on the top are just gone, and the uncommon ones don't know where to find them. Although our royal palace can send people to collect medicinal materials in the city, we are worried that it will arouse the suspicion of others and reveal the illness of the Fourth Highness. I heard that the Xie family business also operates a medicinal herb business, so I came to ask my sister-in-law, is there a way not to alarm outsiders and quietly collect these medicinal materials? The price is easy to say, Yanwangfu will definitely not be stingy! ”

Xie Mulin took the list of medicinal materials and looked at them a few times, and found that some of the names of the medicines on it were known, and some were really unheard of, and they really didn't seem to be common and commonly used medicinal materials.

At present, the Xie family firm is mainly engaged in groceries from the north and south, and as for medicinal materials, most of them send medicinal materials from the south to the north, and rarely touch the northern medicinal materials business, let alone precious varieties. This is the army's unique business.

Since Lao Yan Wang took over the military affairs in the north, he deliberately handed over this transaction to the military, and the rest of the people could only make up their minds about the business of fur, tea, grain, cloth, etc. This is to help the military develop exclusive sources of revenue, so that the military will not encounter economic difficulties again and affect its combat effectiveness. The military-related people also cut off the supply of medicinal materials in the surrounding area by the way. Xie Pu, a civil official from other places, how could he rob the meat in someone's bowl? Occasionally, I buy a few precious medicinal materials from the other party, and most of them are used as favors.

Right now, the Xie family has a few boxes of precious medicinal materials in their hands, which are ready to be used as dowries when their daughters get married this year, and the rest of the inventory is all southern medicine. This part of the medicinal materials can be provided to the Yan Wangfu, but more, I am afraid that it will be a little difficult.
