Chapter 159: Poisoning
"Okay, okay." Su Yunmu nodded again and again when he heard this.
"Wait." Rong Chen suddenly looked at him and said, "Aren't you going to marry the fourth girl of the Shen family?" Since you want to be the brother-in-law of the main palace, how can you avoid not seeing each other in the future? I still have to see it, but if Shen Nianzhen wants to find out any news from you in the future, you have to ask the palace before you can tell her! β
"Huh?" Su Yunmu was dumbfounded.
"You won't agree?" Rong Chen's face immediately turned cold.
"No, it's not!" Su Yunmu hurriedly shook his head when he heard this, and said with a confused expression: "What are you two doing?" Using me as a microphone? Inquire about each other? It's also too ......."
There are too many of these moves, if you want to ask anything, go directly to the other party!
"You kid doesn't understand." Rong Chen said coldly: "Do you agree?" If you don't promise this palace, I'll go find seventy or eighty beauties again, and enjoy it for you......"
"Okay, yes, I promise! Whatever you say is what it is! Su Yunmu nodded like a rattle, and his face was afraid.
Rong Chen let him go: "Okay, you quickly change the clothes on your body, go home, and wait to listen to the instructions of the palace." β
"Okay!" Su Yunmu hurriedly agreed, tears of excitement in his eyes, he finally heard this sentence!
When he walked to the door, he was suddenly stunned.
With such a good chess piece of his own, Rong Chen didn't think of using himself to ask his sister Su Muwan's news?
It can be seen that there is no place for her in his heart......
Su Yunmu slowly turned his head and glanced in the direction of Rong Chen, his gaze was a little complicated.
β¦β¦
When Rong Chen left Wangjiang Tower, he forgot his promise and did not bring Jingxue back to his house.
In fact, he forgot about her as soon as he returned home.
Because he drank too much wine, he slept until the afternoon and woke up with a splitting headache, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that there was no one in the empty room, and he suddenly felt a little lonely.
Not wanting to put himself in such a bad mood, he shouted outward, "Come on! β
"Your Highness."
After a while, the palace people who were washing, as well as Mama Zhang from Concubine Qi's palace, walked in from outside, knelt down and asked for peace: "Your Highness has finally woken up, Niangniang sent a slave to visit you, you haven't entered the palace for several days to ask Niangniang to say goodbye." β
Rong Chen then remembered that since he had a quarrel with Shen Nianzhen, he hadn't entered the palace to ask Concubine Qi for several days.
"Okay, I'll go into the palace to see her old man later......"
Before he finished speaking, Rong Chen felt a tearing pain in his stomach, and his face immediately changed in pain, and he almost screamed.
"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" Mama Zhang was suddenly startled.
"Bengong, Bengong has a terrible stomachache......" Rong Chen sat back on the bed weakly, looked down at his stomach in disbelief, he was not injured? Did you eat something you shouldn't have eaten?
But when he returned home yesterday, he didn't eat anything......
"Hurry up and get a doctor! This is not a small thing! Mama Zhang's face was solemn, and she immediately ordered.
"Yes." The guards hurriedly retreated.
Here Rong Chen's already painful face was sweating, and he couldn't sit still, Mama Zhang and others helped him lie down, but it still didn't work, his face turned from ruddy to pale at a very fast speed, and when the imperial doctor entered the door, he was already so weak that he couldn't even speak.
"Your Highness, this is poisoned." After the imperial doctor took the pulse, he carefully opened Rong Chen's pupils and looked at it for a long time, and then pricked the blood with a silver needle, carefully observed the black blood stains that flowed out, and said affirmatively.
"Poisoned? What is poisoned? Mama Zhang asked with a surprised face.
"I don't know." Hearing this, the imperial doctor shook his head: "The nature of this poison is too complicated, it is not a common arsenic, such as crane top red, and it doesn't look like a poison in the Central Plains, so we still have to invite more doctors to come to this matter." β
"Doesn't it look like the poison of the Central Plains? Is that from outside the Frontier? Mama Zhang gasped when she heard this, looking very flustered.
At this time, Rong Chen was still awake, although cold sweat broke out on his painful forehead, he forced himself to say: "Go, go to Wangjiang Tower, and look for a woman named Jingxue!" She, she's from the Qur'an......"
"How could His Highness know such an exotic woman?" Mama Zhang hurriedly followed his instructions and sent Nanfeng and others to look for people in Wangjiang Tower, and on the other hand, she sent a few people to invite Imperial Doctor Zhao, who was good at detoxification in the palace, and for the sake of insurance, she also sent people to invite several famous doctors in Beijing.
Half an hour later, the imperial doctor and the doctor gathered in the Second Prince's Mansion.
However, after Nanfeng, who was sent to Wangjianglou to look for someone, came back with bad news: that Jingxue was missing.
Since she met Rong Chen in Wangjiang Tower yesterday, no one has seen her again.
"In this way, the poison on Her Highness's body is her!" Mama Zhang was furious when she heard this: "A woman in a green building! Dare to poison the prince of the dynasty! This is no small matter! Be sure to find her! Let's see what her purpose is in sneaking into Shangkyori! β
"The top priority at the moment is to quickly think of ways to detoxify His Highness."
Nanfeng said anxiously: "In fact, in addition to these doctors, His Highness's fiancΓ©e, Miss Shen, also has good medical skills, maybe she can unravel the poison in His Highness......"
"No way!"
As soon as these words came out, two voices in the room sounded together.
One is Mama Zhang's, and the other is Rongchen's.
Rong Chen's face was ugly, and he said in a difficult tone: "No, you can't invite her to ......"
There was a hint of stubbornness in his expression, and a hint of embarrassment.
At the beginning of the Shen family, he had already broken off with Shen Nianzhenen, so what is the matter with inviting her to come now? She must not be invited!
Mama Zhang glanced at Nanfeng and said, "Do you understand what Your Highness means?" His status is extremely noble, and he can't afford to miss the slightest! Miss Shen is just a little bit of medical skills, so what is it? But His Highness's illness cannot be delayed! Let's let the imperial doctors try to detoxify His Highness first! β
ββ¦β¦ All right. When Nanfeng heard this, he hung his head helplessly.
In fact, he really wanted to say that Shen Nian's medical skills were really good! At least her healed his arm, and there were no after-effects.
But when Mama Zhang looked disappreroving, and Rong Chen looked angry, he didn't say anything.
Fortunately, the imperial physician of the Great Zhou still has some real ability, and after the imperial physician Zhao, who is said to be the best at detoxification, came, he first diagnosed Rong Chen's pulse, and then pricked his finger with a golden needle to let the black blood flow out.
As soon as the black blood came out, Rong Chen's spirit suddenly became much better, at least he was able to sit up if he spoke neatly.
Imperial Physician Zhao went to prescribe a prescription again, and asked someone to grab the medicine: "Go as soon as possible, the more the better, it's best to boil a big pot and feed it all to His Highness to drink." β
"Yes, my subordinates will go." Nanfeng reached out and took the prescription and immediately retreated.
Imperial Physician Zhao turned around and saw that Rong Chen was still sitting on the bed, and immediately said unceremoniously: "Your Highness is still lying down!" When lying down, the blood flow is slower, and the toxicity spreads more slowly throughout the body. β
"Doctor, can't you detoxify this medicine after drinking it?" Hearing this, Mama Zhang hurriedly asked.
"Who told you you're detoxifying?"
Imperial Physician Zhao frowned: "The old man can only control the toxin a little bit when he does this, don't take His Highness's life so quickly!" As for the complete detoxification, it is necessary to find the antidote as soon as possible. β
"But, but...... The exotic girl is gone......" Mama Zhang murmured.
"Find! Send someone to search the whole process immediately, and you will definitely be able to find her! Rong Chen said in a deep voice: "She tried her best to poison the palace, and she definitely had a plan, and now that the palace has been successfully recruited, she will definitely take the initiative to find the door!" β
"Yes! Your Highness! β
Nanfeng immediately led the people to retreat, and mobilized hundreds of soldiers from the Second Prince's Mansion to search for them together.
Soon, the medicine prescribed by Imperial Physician Zhao was boiled, because of his orders, the kitchen increased the amount, so the people brought a total of eighteen large bowls of black soup and medicinal juice, and when they came in, the bitter soup and medicinal juice almost made the people in the house vomit out.
Imperial Physician Zhao was extremely calm, not affected at all, the decoction came in, he leaned over and sniffed it, then nodded with satisfaction, turned to Rong Chen and said, "Your Highness, drink the medicine." β
"Do you have to drink it?" When Rong Chen saw the eighteen bowls of decoction in front of him, his brows immediately furrowed.
It stinks too!
"Your Highness, if you don't drink it, I'm afraid you won't be able to recover the antidote." Imperial Physician Zhao's tone was cold.
Rong Chen: "......"
Well, he doesn't want to die yet.
"Your Highness, let's drink it!" Mama Zhang persuaded on the side.
Rong Chen took a deep breath, stretched out one hand, pinched his nose, and snatched the medicine bowl from the palace maid's hand with the other hand, closed his eyes and took a big gulp.
The next moment, he opened his mouth and spit out: "This is too bitter!" β
Imperial Physician Zhao said quietly: "Your Highness, all the medicinal materials for detoxification are either fishy or bitter, for the sake of your life, you should drink it!" β
"Doctor, this is too bitter, can you eat some candied fruit to dispel the bitter taste." Mama Zhang asked on the side,
"No." Hearing this, Imperial Physician Zhao shook his head: "If this is the case, it will not be effective at all, and it will be harmful to His Highness's body at that time." β
Yes, hearing this, Rong Chen knew that he had no choice. It's fate!
He sighed, pinched his nose again, and held the medicine bowl, the ninja was disgusted, and he smothered a large bowl.
When he put down the bowl, he covered his mouth tightly with his hand, because if he didn't, he would probably vomit it out.
It stinks!
"Your Highness, these medicines must be drunk." Imperial Physician Zhao said quietly.
Rong Chen: "......"
This is comparable to eighteen tortures! He might as well die!
"Your Highness, you must drink ......" Mama Zhang stood aside and said with tears in her eyes: "Concubine Qi doesn't know about this yet......"
Mother ......
Thinking of this, Rong Chen's irritable heart instantly calmed down.
He raised his eyes to look at the seventeen bowls of black soup and medicinal juice held by the palace people, and in a desperate gamble, holding the mood of going to the execution ground, he suddenly picked up a bowl and poured it down with his head tilted and his eyes closed, followed by the second bowl and the third bowl......
After drinking ten bowls in one go, Rong Chen couldn't drink it anymore, it was too supportive, and his stomach was too uncomfortable.
Moreover, a feeling of disgust came straight out of his throat, and he couldn't help but want to vomit......
"Alright, let's get here first." Imperial Physician Zhao opened his mouth at the right time and instructed the outside world: "Go and get the spittoon." β
Soon, the subordinate took a spittoon and brought it over, I don't know who to hand it over, Imperial Doctor Zhao stretched out his hand to take it and put it in front of Rong Chen.
The next moment, Rong Chen felt the discomfort in his stomach, as if a big shovel kept churning inside, he couldn't hold back anymore, lowered his head and vomited.
All he spit out was black concoction, he hadn't eaten anything since last night, and all he spit out was concoction.
"How, how is this good?" Mama Zhang was extremely nervous when she saw this.
Imperial Physician Zhao glanced at her and said indifferently: "It's okay, that medicine is for vomiting." β
"Vomiting?" Mama Zhang was dumbfounded.
Imperial Physician Zhao explained indifferently: "Of course, under the premise that the patient is highly poisoned and there is no antidote, the golden needle bloodletting, and the drug induces vomiting, these are all ways to dilute the medicinal properties, and only this method can temporarily save the life of His Royal Highness, there is no other way." β
"I see." Hearing this, Mama Zhang suddenly realized, and looked at Rong Chen with pity, it was so pitiful, they were all the hateful evil girls in southern Xinjiang, and their wise and martial Second Highness suffered so much!
Rong Chen vomited for a while, spit out the black juice of a small half spittoon, and then the whole person lay back on the bed tired, exhausted.
Imperial Physician Zhao took out a white handkerchief, covered his mouth and nose, calmly walked to the spittoon, carefully examined the vomit inside, and looked very carefully.
Mama Zhang took a handkerchief, carefully wiped the stains on Rong Chen's mouth, and brought water to rinse his mouth.
However, as soon as she got closer, she heard Rong Chen muttering to herself: "If Shen Nianzhen is here, I'm afraid this palace won't have to suffer so much......
Mama Zhang couldn't help but be stunned, it seems that not only Nanfeng, but even His Royal Highness himself is very convinced of Miss Shen's medical skills!
But she didn't believe it!
It's just a yellow-haired girl, what kind of advanced medical skills can she know? Or solve such a domineering poison? Are you kidding!
Mama Zhang snorted lightly, took the things in her hand and handed them to the palace people, and retreated by herself.
Rong Chen was tired, lying on the bed with no strength, smelling the disgusting bitter medicine in the air in his nose, he missed Shen Nianzhen strongly for the first time, he wanted to see her!
Even if Shen Nianzhen didn't give him detoxification and healing, he wanted to see her.
Even if she scolded him and beat him, he still wanted to see her.
Even if she said such vicious things to him, and wanted to cut him off, he wanted to see her! And it's now! Right away!
"Mama Zhang, you send someone to invite, go and invite ......" As soon as Rong Chen opened his mouth to speak, an excited voice came from outside: "Your Highness!" Concubine Qi, and the three princesses have come to visit you! It's already at the door! β
Mother is coming? And Su Muwan?
How did they get the news so quickly?
Rong Chen was taken aback when he heard this, and he struggled to get off the bed, but was stopped by Imperial Doctor Zhao, he turned his head and motioned to Rong Chen: "You still have seven bowls of medicine left to drink!" Hurry up and drink it! β
"I'm going to see my mother, wait for a drink."
"No way!"
Imperial Physician Zhao was very strong, and when he heard this, he refused: "Your Highness, you refused to drink the medicine, delayed the time, and if you die of poison, then whose responsibility is this?" Wouldn't the lower officials have to bear the charge of ineffective treatment? It doesn't matter if you die, but you want to kill the officials! β
Rong Chen: "......"
This old man is really underwhelmed! Dare to talk to him like that!
He wanted to get angry, but after thinking about it, now the detoxification and treatment still rely on this Imperial Doctor Zhao, this matter can't offend him, wait until his poison is resolved, find an opportunity to beat him up! It's also a relief.
He snorted coldly at the moment, glanced at Imperial Doctor Zhao with a calm gaze, and stretched out his hand to pick up the medicine bowl.
Thinking of something before drinking, Rong Chen immediately instructed Mama Zhang: "This medicine is too stinky, if the mother concubine comes in later, she will definitely be fainted, you go to greet her, let her and the third princess go to another courtyard to sit first!" Wait until the palace finishes drinking the medicine, and then go to see them. β
Yes? Mama Zhang was stunned when she heard this.
"Go!" Rong Chen suddenly became a little angry: "You remember, stop the mother concubine, and the third princess, don't let them in!" Otherwise, this palace will never drink medicine again, and pour it all out! β
Mama Zhang was taken aback when she heard this, she knew his personality better, she was a master of what she said, he said that if he wanted to throw it away and not drink, it would be, and he was busy and agreed: "Okay, good!" The slave is going to stop the mother and don't let her come! β
As he spoke, he hurriedly retreated.
Rong Chen still didn't feel safe, put down the medicine bowl again, got up and walked over to lock the door of the room from the inside, and brought a heavy sandalwood chair behind him.
Imperial Physician Zhao looked at him busy and was very puzzled: "Your Highness is afraid that the embarrassed appearance of drinking medicine will be seen by Concubine Qi?" What are you afraid of, you are a mother and son, and if you are a mother, can you still dislike your son? β
"You don't understand." Rong Chen replied lightly, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, picked up a bowl of black decoction, pinched his nose, and quickly poured it into his mouth with a bitter face.
After drinking one bowl, he put it down and picked up another bowl.
This time, without anyone urging, he drank all the remaining seven bowls of medicine in one go.
After drinking, the stomach was flooded again.
"Spit it up." Imperial Physician Zhao handed over a clean spittoon.
At the same time, Concubine Qi had already entered the mansion with the third princess, and walked to the gate of the courtyard, just as she wanted to go in, Mama Zhang trotted out all the way, knelt down with a plop, and shouted loudly: "Niangniang! The three princesses, please stay! The Imperial Physician is detoxifying His Highness, and he can't let people go in and watch! Let's wait in this yard! β
"Detoxifying? Isn't that dangerous? When Concubine Qi heard this, her heart suddenly became worried, and she clutched her chest tightly.
"Back to Niangniang, it's not too dangerous...... "Mama Zhang didn't know how to describe it, and said with all her brains: "Even His Royal Highness may have to suffer a little crime, it's not ......"
