Chapter 47: Poison
"There's just something to be confirmed." Shi Qingqian didn't look at Shen Shu.
When Shen Shu heard this, he looked at Shi Qingqian and didn't speak.
Shi Qingqian didn't say much, reached out and picked up the medicinal decoction, took out a silver needle from his arms and measured it, the silver needle was still like that, without any discoloration.
Seeing this, Shi Qingqian was not surprised, he approached his nose and sniffed it, a trace of doubt flashed on his face, he sniffed it again with frowning eyebrows, and simply stretched out his finger and dipped some decoction into his mouth.
Shen Shu looked at Shi Qingqian's serious appearance, did not speak, just looked at her quietly and motionlessly.
"But what did you find?" Shen Shu looked at Shi Qingqian and put down the medicine bowl in his hand and asked.
Shi Qingqian frowned his little face, looked at Shen Shu and shook his head.
This medicine bowl is normal, she tasted all the medicinal materials known to the imperial doctor, and it was not special, let alone toxic, and this porcelain bowl containing medicine was even more so.
From head to toe, there was nothing strange about it, just a simple bowl of decoction.
Shi Qingqian couldn't help but feel a little deflated, could it be that she was thinking too much?
"How did you become interested in this medicine?" Shen Shu looked at Shi Qingqi and asked with a smile, but he didn't dislike Shi Qingqi for reaching into the medicine bowl, taking the medicine bowl from her hand, and drinking it.
"Can you show me your hands?" Shi Qingqian looked at Shen Shu, still a little unwilling.
Shen Shu stretched out his hand, and the strange lines suddenly appeared in Shi Qingqian's sight.
"When did this first appear?" Shi Qingqian reached out and grabbed Shen Shu's hand, and looked closer to see the lines, she could be 100% sure that this was definitely a trace of long-term poisoning.
Shen Shu looked at Shi Qingqian's serious face and felt strange: "Earlier, it was just a little at that time." ”
Hearing this, Shi Qingqian looked at Shen Shu and asked, "In addition to this medicine, you take it every day without interruption, but what else do you take every day?" ”
Shen Shu shook his head: "How do you know that I take this medicine bowl every day?" ”
"I asked Nago." Shi Qingqian pursed his lips, but he didn't mean to hide it.
Shen Shu looked at Shi Qing's frowning brows, chuckled and picked up the pastries in the small plate next to him and handed them to her mouth.
Shi Qingqian didn't think much about it, and subconsciously opened her mouth to take a bite, the sweet taste spread in her mouth, and before she could enjoy it, her little face was tense: "Don't eat what you give." ”
As he spoke, Shi Qingqian pushed away Shen Shu's hand, and his little face wrinkled even tighter.
Shen Shu smiled, a little helpless: "Qi'er is angry." ”
Shi Qingqian glared at Shen Shu angrily, sullen and didn't want to speak.
"Does you want me to ask the emperor to marry you?" Shen Shu's words were fluttering, but they smashed a huge wave in Shi Qingqian's heart.
"Who, who wants you to ......" Shi Qingqian blushed for a moment, and his words were a little unsmooth.
Shen Shu looked at her and smiled very gently: "Does Qi'er like me?" ”
Shi Qingqian listened to Shen Shu's words, and his heart suddenly became confused, do you like it, do you like it? She was just a little unhappy when she heard Shen Shu's refusal.
"I don't like it." Shi Qingqian let out a faint breath and spoke.
Shen Shu looked at Shi Qingqian: "Then you shouldn't be unhappy." ”
Shi Qingqian looked at Shen Shu, suppressed the impulse in his heart, nodded, and opened his mouth to bite the pastry that Shen Shu handed over again.
Looking at the pastry placed next to the medicine bowl, Shi Qingqian subconsciously reached out and picked up a piece, and handed it to Shen Shu with the intention of returning the gift, but when he was in mid-air, his pupils suddenly shrank.
Shen Shu looked at Shi Qingqian's appearance, his heart couldn't help but tighten, and asked worriedly, "What's wrong?" ”
Shi Qingqian looked at the pastry in his hand with wide eyes, and after a while, he looked up at Shen Shu: "Who sent this pastry?" ”
"When the emperor delivers medicine, there will always be a plate of pastries to be bitter."
Shi Qing stood up suddenly: "Then you drink medicine every day, will you also take one or two pieces of this?" ”
Shen Shu nodded.
Shi Qingqian's heart was beating fast, because she should have found the cause of Shen Shu's poisoning, everything, but because of this pastry.
The medicine in the medicine bowl is no problem, and this pastry is no problem, the real problem is that after drinking the medicine, Shen Shu will eat one or two pastries.
The ingredients used in the pastry are special, and if this kind of material is mixed with the soup and taken for a long time, it is a kind of chronic that is not easy to detect. Poison, taken for a long time, chronic. The poison accumulates in the body, and one day it will reach the point of the solution, and when the time comes, Shen Shu will die unconsciously, even if someone finds out that it is poisoned, but the poison cannot be detected, let alone found on the emperor's head.
Shen Shu listened to Shi Qingqian's words, and he didn't speak for a long time, the expression on his face was faint, as if Shi Qingqian was talking about an inconsequential matter.
"Won't you say something?" Shi Qingqian looked at Shen Shu and only felt uneasy.
Shen Shu smiled, and he could see Shi Qingqian's shadow in his eyes.
"Did you already know?" Shi Qing looked at Shen Shu suspiciously.
Shen Shu shook his head, he didn't know, he never knew.
He really learned today that the medicine he had taken since he was a child was actually a kind of slow. Sex. Poison. Medicine, it turns out that the emperor, who loves him very much on the surface, is actually a person who guards himself and takes his own life into account.
But inexplicably, he was not surprised, as if everything was supposed to be like this, and the emperor's concern made it difficult for him to accept.
"Why?" Shen Shu looked out the window.
Shi Qingqian looked at Shen Shu, there was nothing on his face, it was bland and terrifying.
"In the future, if you don't want the palace to be suspicious, just drink this medicine bowl and stop eating these pastries." Shi Qingqian thought of the lines on Shen Shu's arm, and her heart sank, she didn't know what else she could say, and if she was comforted, Shen Shu might not need it.
Shen Shu looked at Shi Qingqi and nodded.
"I'll develop an antidote to help you get rid of the toxins in your body."
After that, Shi Qingqian began to work hard to dispense medicine for the accumulation of poison in Shen Shu's body, but in the end, she said that she was entering the palace to accompany the princess, so it was not appropriate to stay for too long, and soon there was news from the Hou Mansion urging her to go back.
on the carriage.
"You go back and recuperate, here is the medicine I prepared for you, it's inconvenient for you yourself, so let Changgo help you." Shi Qingqian took out a bunch of bottles and cans and stuffed them into Shen Shu's arms.
"Thank you, Kui'er." Shen Shu looked at Shi Qingqi, and when he faced Shi Qingqi, he always had a heartfelt smile on his face.
In the past few days, Shen Shu has always called for a child, no matter how Shi Qingqian preaches and resists, the other party doesn't pay attention to it, but after just a few days of running-in, Shi Qingqian is also used to it.
At this time, the carriage suddenly braked sharply, and when he saw that Shi Qingqian's center of gravity was unstable and about to fall, Shen Shu quickly grabbed her arm and protected her.
Shi Qingqian was frightened, patted his chest and eased up, and realized that he had shrunk into Shen Shu's arms, and immediately a spirit jumped out.
Looking at Shen Shu's eyes a little uncomfortable, the noisy sound of the carriage made Shi Qingqian find an excuse to go out, Shen Shu stretched out his hand to protect her down, knowing that she was uncomfortable, and didn't say anything.
