Chapter Ninety-Two: Getting the Antidote
The king of Nan'an was no longer in the palace at the moment, he was watching Han Qing weeding in the field in the courtyard of his suburbs.
"Lord Wang, it's good for you to stay in the palace, why bother to come here to bask in the sun and suffer." Han Qing wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "You still don't worry about me?" ”
"Of course it's not reassuring! These flowers and plants of mine are really expensive, don't break them! ”
Han Qing smiled, walked up to him, took a sip of water, and said, "The little one has seen the flowers and plants for the prince for nearly ten years, and I can know how many leaves and fruits each flower and plant has when I close my eyes. Lord, don't worry! ”
Yan Zening nodded, looked at him and said, "I've always been very relieved!" ”
"There is such a big thing in the city, you deliberately went out of the city to avoid it, right?" Han Qing could see Yan Zening's thoughts at a glance.
"You, you!" Yan Zening pointed at Han Qing's nose and laughed.
"But anyway, they should be looking for me!" He lowered his head and said.
"What if they didn't expect you, the prince?"
"Then the young lady of the Zhao family is unlucky!"
Han Qing restrained his smile a little, looked at Yan Zening and said, "Lord Wang, the little one has a sentence, I don't know if to ask!" ”
Yan Zening looked at Han Qing and knew what he wanted to ask.
"I didn't do it!" He shook his head and said, "Are you trying to ask this?" ”
Han Qing didn't speak, Yan Zening could use what the Zhao family needed to blackmail them into serving him. Looking at this deal, how is it a good deal for him!
"If I want to kill Zhao Yuru, I won't use poison. She is different from others, even if she dies, I will choose a decent death for her, not poison! ”
"The little one understands!" Han Qing nodded and said, "It's me who is narrow-minded!" ”
Yan Zening didn't speak, nor did he blame him, but just said to himself: "You say, who would want to harm her?" ”
"The Zhao family has many enemies, and the assassinations and plots that have been openly and secretly encountered over the years are not few."
"But the venom of the Quartet snake is rare! This Dayan, apart from me, there are few people who have it! ”
"King Huaiyang?" Han Qing looked at Yan Zening in some surprise and said, "Could it be him?" ”
"Hey, that's hard to say!" Yan Zening leaned back in his chair and said, "Although he is not the only one who has this poison, you can inadvertently pass on this news to the people of the Zhao family!" ”
Han Qing understood and nodded quietly.
At this moment, the housekeeper of the other courtyard stepped forward, saluted Yan Zening and said, "Lord Wang, Chief Sect Zhao asks to see you!" ”
Yan Zening showed an expected expression, stood up and tidied up his clothes, and then said to Han Qing: "I really said Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!" ”
Soon, Zhao Yuru came to Yan Zening under the leadership of the housekeeper. In between, Yan Zening wore a hat and squatted there to water a dwarf pine tree. When Zhao Yuru saw the pine tree, he immediately became excited.
"See the prince of the county!" She stabilized her mind and gave Yan Zening a salute.
"Mr. Zhao, a rare guest!" Yan Zening stood up with a smile, wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at her and said, "What wind blew you here?" ”
"Please help!" Zhao Yuru knelt at his feet and said, "Please, prince, save my sister-in-law!" ”
Yan Zening looked surprised, and hurriedly helped her up and said, "Hurry up, what's going on?" It's only been two days since I came back to the annex, what happened in the city? ”
How could Zhao Yuru believe his nonsense, on the way here, she even wondered if this incident was done by the king of Nan'an County, after all, she still remembered the tragedy in Gwangju vividly. She also wouldn't believe that the king of Nan'an County would obediently hand over the unicorn pine. I'm afraid there are no harsh conditions! After all, he is now Zhao Yuru, not Lin Yufu, these men have two faces!
"Someone poisoned my sister-in-law, and now her life is hanging by a thread, continue to save her life!"
"Really?" Yan Zening made a panicked look and hurriedly said, "Is there anything this king can help?" ”
"I want to ask Lord Wang, do you have a unicorn pine?"
Yan Zening's face changed, he let go of the hand holding Zhao Yuru, turned around and said, "Didn't your father tell you about its origin?" ”
"Yes! But······ But I know, Lord Wang, you will definitely have unicorn pine! ”
"Huh?" Yan Zening raised his eyebrows and said, "Why are you so sure?" ”
"Because Yu Fu once told me that you are a treasure chest that can meet all her needs. Whether it's the white hair of the Queen Mother or the beard of the Ten Palaces of the Yama King, you can get it. You're the most powerful person in the world! ”
This sycophant made Yan Zening very useful, he nodded Zhao Yuru's head and said, "You, you, this little mouth, can talk like Yufu!" ”
Seeing that Yan Zening was easy to speak, Zhao Yuru hurriedly said: "So I beg the prince to hand over the unicorn pine to us!" We, the Zhao family, and the Zhao family, will be grateful for your great kindness! ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" Yan Zening waved his hand, looked at the only remaining unicorn pine at that time that he had carefully raised, sighed and said, "Since you know how this pine tree grows, don't you be curious, who is buried under this tree?" ”
Zhao Yuru was stunned for a moment, looked at the small unicorn pine, and thought to himself that he didn't know what unicorn pine Yan Zening had before, let alone the origin!
"I ······ I do not know! ”
"The one who fell asleep under the tree was also a poor child!" He sat silently on the ground, looking at the pine tree as if he were a child he had raised!
"Who is it?" Zhao Yuru looked at Yan Zening's eyes and thought, it can't be his daughter who died young, right?
"It's my daughter!"
"What? Didn't the little county lord die of illness? How could it be ······"
"It was a summer day, and the weather was hot, so we brought our children who could just walk to this courtyard to escape the heat! But who knew there would be poisonous snakes there, and by the time we found out, the child was already hopeless. ”
Zhao Yuru didn't expect his daughter to die like this, and he didn't know what to say for a while!
"Later, I buried her here, but I didn't expect that a few years later, a unicorn pine actually grew, I always thought that it was my daughter who was reluctant to leave me, so she became a unicorn pine to accompany me! If you become a mother in the future, you will understand my feelings! ”
"Lord Wang, I won't take this pine tree away, I just want a few pine nuts!" Zhao Yuru stepped forward and whispered: "If the little county lord knew that he could save someone's life, he would definitely be happy!" ”
Yan Zening breathed a long sigh of relief, blinked her eyes, wiped away the tears in her eyes, and then said with a smile: "You're right, if she knows that she can save people, she will definitely be happy!" After speaking, Yan Zening stepped forward, gently knocked off a pine nut, and handed it to Zhao Yuru.
"It's also your luck that you just had a few pine nuts this year."
Zhao Yuru's heart fell to the ground, and he took the pine nuts handed by Yan Zening, as if he was holding a priceless treasure!
"Don't forget, my daughter gave it to you!"
Zhao Yuru looked at him gratefully, thinking that he would propose some conditions in exchange, but he didn't expect him to give it to himself so happily.
She suddenly regretted a little, if she didn't put forward conditions, it meant that their Zhao family and Zhao Jiajun owed him a great favor, when and how he would pay it back, the initiative was not in their hands!
But now I can't care so much, it's important to save people!
After Zhao Yuru thanked him for his kindness, he quickly ran out of the door.
Yan Zening put his hands behind his back, and his smile gradually faded.
"Lord Wang!" Han Qing walked out again and said, "This unicorn pine, obviously you cultivated it with countless orphans, why do you say that it is a little county lord?" ”
"If you don't say that, how can Zhao Yuru and them feel that they owe me a great favor?" He curled the corners of his mouth, looked at his fertile field of flowers and grass, and walked back to his room with satisfaction.
Han Qing squatted down, loosened the soil for the pine tree, and then sighed.
Every flower and plant here is a priceless herb, and any one of them is hard to find in the world. Over the years, there have been many people who have come to seek medicine, and the prince has also received corresponding benefits from them, and he himself has also worked for him in this way.
Many people find it strange that many flowers and plants that others can't support are alive and well there, including this unicorn pine.
"Can it be bad?" Han Qing carefully buried the young white bone that had been brought out by loosening the soil.
Beneath this vast expanse of land, all the innocent children are buried!
When he knew that the unicorn pine in the palace was burned clean by a fire, Yan Zening thought about planting one himself. In order to do this, he found many homeless orphans, put poisonous snakes in their mouths alive, crawled into their bodies, and then buried the dying children in the ground and sprinkled pine nuts. In this way, I don't know how many children I killed, and finally this unique unicorn pine grows.
Now it really comes in handy, presumably what Yan Zening is thinking about at the moment is that those children died well, and a group of orphans in exchange for a favor from the Zhao family is really cost-effective!
Han Qing packed up the flowers and plants, turned around and walked back to his room.
What is virtuous, what is kind, but it is just those things that the people of the world like to see. The hearts of those who are separated by the belly have long been dark!
Zhao Yuru rode his horse all the way, and almost fell when he got off the horse, but he still carefully protected the pine nut in his arms.
"Doctor! Doctor! She ran into Tian's room and handed over the precious pine nut!
"The pine nuts of the unicorn pine! I've got it! ”
The two imperial doctors were shocked, and hurriedly surrounded her, carefully observing the pine nuts in her hand, the pine nuts were black on the outside, but when they broke off a piece, they could see that they were dark red inside!
"It's really Kirin Pine!" They were overjoyed, looked at Zhao Yuru and said: "Mr. Zhao is really powerful, the old man admires it!" ”
"Okay, don't say polite words, go and save people!"
The two imperial doctors took the pine nuts and went to prepare the antidote!
"Little sister!" Zhao Yujing walked over happily, hugged Zhao Yuru and said, "Thank you!" Thank you so much! ”
"Big brother, what are you talking about, it's all a family!"
Zhao Yujing nodded excitedly, and then said, "Go and tell my father the good news!" ”
"Hmmm! I'll go! Zhao Yuru nodded, pulled him to Tian's bed and said, "You better guard your sister-in-law!" ”
"No! I've been delayed for too many days, and the people from Fairview haven't found it yet, so now this is the right thing! After speaking, Zhao Yujing picked up his saber and went out in a hurry.
"Eh······" Before Zhao Yuru could stop him, he only saw the corner of his cloak disappear outside the door.
"He's too, don't ask where this pine nut came from!" Zhao Yuru pursed his lips, and then came to Zhao Guanming's study.
"Daddy!" Zhao Yuru said happily: "I got the pine nuts of the unicorn pine, and now the imperial doctor is making an antidote, I believe that my sister-in-law will be able to wake up soon!" ”
"Really?" Zhao Guanming stood up and said excitedly: "Is it really a unicorn pine?" ”
"Yes! The Imperial Doctor has been determined! Zhao Yuru smiled and nodded.
"God forbid! God forbid! Zhao Guanming breathed a sigh of relief, but before the joy passed, he noticed that something was wrong.
"Wait a minute, where did you get this pine nut?"
Zhao Yuru pursed his lips and said, "It was given by the king of Nan'an County!" ”
"How can the king of Nan'an have ······?"
"It's a long story, do you remember his little county lord who died young?"
Zhao Guanming groaned and said in surprise: "Could it be that this pine tree ······?"
"Yes, the county prince said that the little county lord also died from the same poisonous snake, just so just right, he also has a unicorn pine!"
"Oh my God······" Zhao Guanming didn't know too much about these secrets of the royal family, but thinking that this pine nut was exchanged for the life of the daughter of the king of Nan'an County, he was still a little shocked in his heart!
"How is this good, our Zhao family, don't we owe the county king a great favor!"
"Yes! If he proposes some quid pro quo, then there is some negotiation. But he gave it to me so happily, now, if he uses this favor as a threat in the future, then it will be really difficult for our Zhao family to do it! ”
Zhao Guanming felt a little headache, waved his hand and said, "That's it, it's true that people save it first!" What about your eldest brother? ”
"He's out looking for the murderer!"
"This child, his wife's life and death are still uncertain, so he is in a hurry to do things!"
"The eldest brother is also in a hurry, now that the sister-in-law can be saved, he naturally wants to find the murderer who hurt the sister-in-law immediately!"
"Okay, then you go and guard your sister-in-law!"
"Hmm!"
Zhao Guanming leaned back in the chair, the blood Bodhi was given by Yan Linjun, and the Qilin Song was given by Yan Zening, and he owed the two princes a favor at this time.
If they don't deal with each other in the future, then the Zhao family will be really difficult!
Lin Yufu, who was in the palace, also relieved after hearing Xincha's report.
"It's good to be saved! It's good to be saved! Lin Yufu patted his heart and said: "Mr. Zhao is really hard!" ”
"Yes! The head of the head coach has almost not closed his eyes in the past few days, and he has been running around non-stop, which shows that the relationship between their aunts and sisters-in-law is really good! ”
Lin Yufu smiled and looked at the string of Buddhist beads in his hand.
It was sent to her by Yan Linjun today, and there was one blood Bodhi missing from the Buddha beads, and it was obvious that he had sent the blood Bodhi to the Zhao Mansion.
"Girl, you are so powerful, you can make the prince willingly submit the blood bodhisattva! It seems that the prince is sincere to you! ”
"What nonsense!" Lin Yufu glanced at the new tea with disgust, but she was still a little happy in her heart.
"Girl, since you're in a good mood, can you take me around the palace? I don't dare to look up every time I come in, now that you are the county lord, your status is different, can you take me to see it? ”
Lin Yufu was also in a good mood, nodded and said, "Okay!" Take you to open your eyes! ”
Xincha nodded happily and hurriedly walked out with Lin Yufu.
"In this palace, the red walls and golden tiles are actually quite depressing after watching it for a long time!" Lin Yufu said as she walked: "But the scenery is still good, the imperial garden, there are many large and small fish ponds and rockeries." The things that the ladies like in each palace are different, so their palaces also have their own characteristics, and they really want to visit, I'm afraid they won't be able to finish it in two days! ”
"Wow!" Xincha clapped his hands and said, "Then the emperor turned over the cards at night, wouldn't it take a long time to send someone here?" It's better for us to live in Qinyun, which girl do you like, just go directly to someone's bed! ”
"You're going to die, compare the emperor with the people of Qinyunju, I heard it, you don't have enough heads to cut off!"
Xincha stuck out her tongue, looked at Lin Yufu and said, "Girl, you are finally a little like you before now!" ”
"What?" Lin Yufu was stunned, looked at Xincha and said, "Like me before?" ”
"Yes, you used to talk like this and be so happy. Ever since you last fell overboard, I've always felt like you've been sullen and don't speak like you anymore. But today I feel like you're the same again! ”
Hearing Xincha's words, Lin Yufu's smile gradually froze, she actually became more and more like the real Lin Yufu under the subtlety?
I really didn't expect that!
The two of them came to the Imperial Garden, Lin Yufu was a little tired from walking, so she came to an attic to rest, and before she could say a few words to Xincha, she heard the voices of two women talking outside.
"Is the young lady of the Zhao family still alive?"
"Alive, I heard that I found most of the antidotes, and I missed that unicorn pine!"
"These antidotes, just one is rare, and the Zhao family can find all three, and it's not easy!"
"Otherwise, how can you be targeted?"
"Yes! However, what is this poison, and why is it so strange? ”
"I heard my dad say, what is it called Quartet snake venom, it's quite rare anyway! Few of us have it! ”
"Scared the hell out of me! How does your dad know this? ”
"My father turned out to be a staff member under the King of Huaiyang, and later received a recommendation to achieve the current position of the fourth official, that Quartet snake venom, is what my father saw in the Huaiyang Palace!"
"Really? My sister is really well-informed! ”
The two laughed and pushed open the attic door! What caught my eye was Lin Yufu with a shocked face!
"It's not ······" One of the women pointed at Lin Yufu, stunned for a long time and said, "Lord Dai'an!" ”
They are Yan Linyu's concubines, and Lin Yufu has seen them before. She stood up, walked up to the two of them, and said in an incredulous tone, "You say it again, who has the venom of the Quartet snake in the house?" ”
The two of them glanced at each other with some trepidation, and then whispered, "King Huaiyang······"
