Chapter 16: Assassination
The three of them were stunned at the same time, Lu Wang jumped up in surprise, and ran back, Xia Jinse was a little stunned, this is the deep palace, there are assassins? True or fake?
Lan Beichen glanced at the distance with a gloomy face, and it was too late to say in his heart, so he could only grab Xia Jinse and strode towards the warm pavilion.
When Xia Jinse saw that the outside of the warm pavilion was full of guards, all of them murderous, she came back to her senses, and it seemed that something really happened.
Xia Jinse followed Lan Beichen in, only to see his father Xia Yanxiu supporting Emperor Yuanqing who fell to the ground, his hands were covered in blood, and there was a big pool on the ground. Father-in-law Lu was like an ant on a hot pot, constantly shouting 'pass on the imperial doctor', and even his voice trembled.
The Zhao family, Xia Ruxue, Xia Mengyao, and a few palace maids hid on the side, trembling, and almost collapsed.
"What's wrong with the emperor?" Lan Beichen asked when he entered, and walked in front of Emperor Yuanqing in two steps.
Looking at the place where Xia Yanxiu was covering, it was Emperor Yuanqing's arm, the bright yellow dragon robe was cut by a sharp blade, blood kept gushing out, the skin and flesh turned up, and his clothes were already dyed red, and his face changed.
"The assassin pretended to be a little eunuch and came in to deliver tea, but Wei Chen didn't expect it, and suddenly something happened......" Xia Yanxiu said urgently, cold all over.
He didn't expect such a thing to happen, someone would dare to assassinate!
Although Xia Jinse was a little nervous, he could hear it clearly, and he took a look at the ground, and sure enough, there was a person upside down. Dressed in eunuch clothes, he was very young, and when he was hit by the sword of the guard in his chest, there was a trace of black blood oozing out of his mouth, and it seemed that he was dead.
Although she didn't see it with her own eyes, compared to Xia Jinse's personal experience before, it was much more tragic than this, and she was not very panicked.
The assassin is dead, and there is no danger for the time being, that is, Emperor Yuanqing was injured, Xia Jinse originally thought that there was no big problem, but when the imperial doctor came to check, he knew that the matter was serious.
"Nine Princes, the assassin is ruthless and vicious, he just cut the big blood vessel on the emperor's arm, and now he is bleeding non-stop......" The imperial doctor frowned, and said worriedly: "Weichen used all kinds of methods, but he couldn't stop the bleeding!" ”
In the side room of the warm pavilion, Emperor Yuanqing was lying on the couch, his face was already a little pale.
The blood flowed endlessly, it was still a large blood vessel, even though it had been tightly wrapped around the upper end of Emperor Yuanqing's arm with a bandage, but the blood still kept seeping out. The sleeves of the dragon robe had been cut open, Emperor Yuanqing was shirtless, the scars were deep and the bones were visible, and the air was full of a strong smell of blood.
"The court judged Xiao Hongyang, he is the best at surgical knife wounds." Lan Beichen immediately said, and then named a few more imperial doctors, all of whom were surgical saints.
Lu Wangxi hurriedly went again, and after a while, he brought a few middle-aged imperial doctors, Xia Jinse stood at the door and watched, only to feel that these people were like facing a great enemy, and their faces were solemn. Although she has the heart to help, she can only stay outside honestly because she thinks about her identity.
Some people went in and out of the side room, bringing out basins of blood and water, and from time to time there were painful cries and scolding voices from Emperor Yuanqing. Who knew that half an hour had passed, and Emperor Yuanqing's voice gradually disappeared, but Xia Yanxiu brought out a shocking news.
Emperor Yuanqing lost too much blood and was already unconscious!
"How so?" Zhao Shi pulled Xia Yanxiu's robe, and only then did he say the words: "Isn't the assassin already dead, dead, how can he ......?"
"The injury is too serious to stop the bleeding!" Xia Yanxiu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
When Xia Mengyao heard this, she almost couldn't stand still: "Oh my God, will the emperor die......"
Zhao covered her mouth in shock: "If you don't speak, will you die?" ”
"Don't say that! All of you, shut up for me! "Xia Yanxiu is going to be angry, it doesn't matter at home usually, but now it's a special occasion, if you don't say the right word, you have to lose your head.
Xia Ruxue's face was pale, but she was still calm, the string of jade Buddha beads on her wrist had faded, and she pinched it in her hand and muttered: "Bodhisattva bless, the emperor must be safe." ”
The entire warm pavilion was surrounded by dozens of guards, only allowed to enter but not to leave, the ninth prince Lan Beichen spoke, before the emperor woke up, no one present was allowed to leave, to avoid news leakage.
Looking at Emperor Yuanqing's unconscious appearance, Lu Wangxi was worried: "Xiao Yuan's judgment, what should I do, aren't you a surgical saint, why can't you even stop bleeding?" ”
It was the first time that Xiao Yuanju had encountered such a situation, even though he had treated many injuries, but the emperor's injuries were too serious. But now in a race against time, the emperor's wound couldn't stop bleeding at all, and the gold sore medicine was washed away by blood as soon as it was poured.
"The medicines used by the ministers for the emperor are all the best Panax notoginseng and Crane grass, but they still can't stop the bleeding......" Several imperial doctors were already panicked and didn't know what to do.
"Nine Princes!" The dragons were leaderless, and Gonggong Lu stared at Lan Beichen like a helper.
Lan Beichen was silent for a moment, then suddenly walked out, and grabbed Xia Jinse, who was stunned: "Come in with me!" ”
