Chapter 653: Strange Things

The weather was already hot, and Zhang Deming was so frightened by his master's low roar that he broke out in a cold sweat.

I have to serve the concubine well, and I can't make the master unhappy.

These two difficult errands sandwiched him in the middle, which is really fatal.

While wiping his sweat, he beckoned a few little eunuchs to come in and carried a few basins of ice from the hall to the torture room.

While waiting for the results from Imperial Physician Liu's side, the atmosphere in the hall fell into a dead silence for a while.

The jailers kneeling on the spot did not dare to raise their eyes to look at the king on the throne, and even breathed carefully, for fear of making some noise and becoming a fish in the pond.

The emperor explained to the concubine that Mama Li was a repeat offender, and she couldn't let her die if she was to be optimistic.

So they were careful everywhere, treating her as if they were serving their masters, but they were so cautious, and the most fearful thing still happened.

I always feel that the day of moving my head is much closer.

When he was in the same room with the emperor and waiting for Imperial Physician Liu, he felt like he was being Ling Chi, and the oppressive majesty on his body brought a sense of suffocation, even if he was separated from a distance, he could still feel it clearly.

After about a stick of incense, Imperial Doctor Liu finally came to the torture hall, and everyone was able to breathe smoothly at this time, if he didn't come again, it was estimated that he would be suffocated to death.

"Let the emperor and the concubine wait for a long time," he walked to the middle of the hall and bowed.

Ling Juncheng raised his hand slightly to excuse him: "Imperial Doctor Liu, has the cause of Mama Li's death been found?" ”

"Back to the emperor," Imperial Physician Liu replied with a solemn expression, "Mama Li is not food poisoning, nor did she die suddenly, Weichen carefully examined Mama Li's corpse and found a bite mark on her leg, the bite mark is very shallow and hidden, if you don't look closely, it is really difficult to find." ”

"The bite mark looked like she had been bitten by a snake, but strangely, she didn't look like she had been poisoned by a snake and died."

At this point, he furrowed his brow.

has been practicing medicine in the palace for decades, although his medical skills cannot bring people back to life, but it can also be called Hua Tuo alive.

As long as he passes through his hands, most of the incurable diseases can be solved.

But in recent days, some strange things have happened one after another, and he can't even figure it out now.

First of all, the concubine Niangniang had no pulse, then the emperor's injuries healed overnight, and then the specific cause of death that Mama Li could not verify.....

"Doctor Liu, could it be that he was bitten by a rat?" Gong Yu thought for a while and said, "There are often rats in the torture room, maybe she was bitten by a rat and got rat poison. ”

"No, being bitten by a snake is two small blood holes," Imperial Doctor Liu shook his head with his gray beard, "There are tooth marks after the mouse bite, Mama Li's injury is consistent with the former, but it is relatively shallow, not easy to find, and the scar is new, it should have died less than half an hour after being bitten, if it was bitten by a mouse, it would not die so quickly." ”

"There are bite marks on the legs, but no signs of poisoning?" Ling Juncheng pondered for a moment and opened his lips coldly.

"Back to the emperor, that's true," Imperial Physician Liu raised his cuffs and wiped a handful of sweat, "so Weichen is not too sure whether Mama Li died because of that bite mark." ”

"The place in the torture chamber is already damp and dark, and it is possible that Mama Li will die if she is bitten by something," after thinking for a moment, he continued, "It's just that Weichen can't find out what she was bitten by." ”
