You know, it's easy to pretend to be fake, but a person's sincerity can be felt by everyone. That sincere filial piety is not as good as even Gu Xuebin, who is standing here.

In the royal palace, the most noble bond is the kinship (qíng). Whether it is the queen, the queen mother or other concubines, they must all value their own children and grandchildren more. Only the royal family can inherit the throne by the same lineage, and it is also inherited by the noble bloodline.

But the least noteworthy thing is precisely the pro (qíng). Brothers turn against each other, fathers and sons become enemies, and even sisters will fight openly and secretly between concubines; Everyone who jumps into the palace will lose their original heaven (xìng) and people (xìng), wear a mask to cater to others, hide kindness and release schemes to fight for power and profit.

But on the contrary, Su Jinyao's expression (qíng) at that moment was impeccable, and the sincerity from the heart moved the Queen Mother, which made Gu Xuebin sigh to himself.

Now sitting in front of the queen mother's phoenix (chuáng), Su Jinyao is really extremely pleased. She is now a healer, and she can cure the Queen Mother in front of her, as if she had cured the dean's mother.

So when she diagnosed the Queen Mother's pulse, she was very serious and careful, and she didn't notice that the Queen Mother was always looking at her eyes.

When Aunt Ma passed the word and came back, she saw the Queen Mother looking at the little girl sitting next to her (chuáng) with a kind smile, and Su Jinyao's serious expression (qíng) also said that she was really doing her best to treat the Queen Mother.

Aunt Ma didn't make a sound to disturb, but just walked closer to see if Su Jinyao needed anything, or what the Queen Mother had ordered.

When the Queen Mother saw Aunt Ma coming back, she shook her head slightly, signaling her not to make a noise and not to disturb Su Jinyao.

It wasn't until Su Jinyao's pulse diagnosis was finished that she said to the Empress Dowager again: "Please also ask grandmother (nǎi) (nǎi) to stick out her tongue for me to see." ”

After looking at the tongue coating, Su Jinyao said again: "I still have to open my eyelids and look at the eyelids......"

"Wait a minute." Aunt Ma only spoke at this time, walked a few steps over, took out a snow-white silk handkerchief from the drawer of the head cabinet (chuáng), handed it to Su Jinyao and said, "Use this cover to hurt the injury, don't directly touch the queen mother's phoenix body." ”

Su Jinyao looked at the handkerchief in her hand, and then looked at the queen mother's wrist, when she was diagnosing the queen mother's pulse just now, she didn't see so many rules.

But even if you think about it, you should really pay attention to hygiene when you roll your eyelids. She put the handkerchief on her hand, and gently checked the upper and lower eyelids of the Queen Mother with her fingertips through the handkerchief.

Then Su Jinyao asked, "Grandmother (nǎi) (nǎi), I said before that you had a strong reaction after taking the medicine, but now it seems that I didn't check out anything unusual, can you tell me what happened at that time?" ”

"Yes, yes." The Queen Mother nodded, but her face changed, which showed that the situation at that time was really not very good, and she even remembered it with pain.

Su Jinyao comforted: "Grandmother (nǎi) (nǎi) don't be nervous, and you don't need to describe how heart-rending the pain is, just tell me clearly where you feel the pain, whether it is a continuous pain when it hurts, or a labor pain." ”

The Empress Dowager's table (qíng) softened a little, you know, describing the pain of ten thousand arrows piercing her heart is indeed another memory for her.

The Empress Dowager pointed out to Su Jinyao that there were several places where the pain was most severe, including the liver of the internal organs, the kidneys in the lower back, and the major arteries in the neck, which were all serious. And said: "The onset is a constant pain, which really comes and goes suddenly; That is, the kung fu of a stick of incense, and it doesn't hurt anymore. When you came, you didn't feel anything at all, and Hongu was about to fall asleep. ”

Su Jinyao frowned and thought about it, then raised her head and asked Aunt Ma, "Did you take any other medicine before taking the medicine?" ”

Aunt Ma shook her head and said, "Since you told me about the magic of that medicine, I persuaded the Queen Mother to take the medicine first before talking about anything else." What's more, the Queen Mother has been poisoned for a long time and has not been cured for a long time, even if the Bodhisattva knows that the Queen Mother has broken the vows, he will not blame him, so the Queen Mother took the medicine directly. ”

The Empress Dowager smiled slightly and said, "I was still wondering if the Bodhisattva blamed me for breaking my vows and getting fishy." But then it didn't hurt anymore, and the stuffiness that I felt (xiōng) had been depressed in my mouth was gone, but it was better. ”

Of course, Su Jinyao knew that if she took the pills she prepared had no effect at all, she was afraid that she would not have the opportunity to diagnose the Queen Mother's pulse here now, but would be directly pushed to the guillotine.

Combined with the symptoms mentioned by the Queen Mother, Su Jinyao nodded and comforted: "This is a normal reaction after taking the medicine. Presumably, Grandmother (nǎi) (nǎi) already knows that what you are in is Gu poison, which is completely a Gu worm, and ordinary methods cannot be removed, and ordinary medicine has no effect at all. And what I prepared was to kill the Gu worms as soon as possible, which is why I had such a violent reaction. Do not hide from grandmother (nǎi) (nǎi), when taking the second pill, the pain may be more intense. ”

"Well, I also thought that could be the outcome." The Queen Mother squinted her eyes and took a breath, probably thinking that there were still two pills, and the pain was really unbearable.

Aunt Ma couldn't bear it anymore when she listened to it, so she asked: "There is no way to always hurt like this, can there be a way to get rid of Gu worms and relieve pain?" ”

"Yes, yes, no." Su Jinyao said what she had said to Gu Xuebin again, and said, "That is a long pain is better than a short pain." Take the remaining two pills at once, and I will assist in the treatment, which should be able to kill the Gu worms as soon as possible. But this time, the pain was very intense, probably more than ten times more painful than the last attack. ”

"Ahh Aunt Ma was taken aback, and as soon as she heard that it would hurt ten times more, she immediately changed her words: "Then change the method and take the remaining two pills several times, so that the pain can be reduced, and the Gu worms can be removed, isn't it the same?" ”

Su Jinyao immediately shook her head and denied: "No." The worm is alive, and it is constantly changing. Gu worms are also poisons among poisons, and their self (shēn) will also produce drug resistance (xìng). If it cannot be eliminated as soon as possible, once the Gu worm changes its (xìng) nature, all the previous efforts will be lost. I have to continue to find a way to find a new Gu worm, and my grandmother (nǎi) (nǎi) will suffer even more. ”

"Okay, Magu, I'll ask." The Empress Dowager suddenly spoke, preventing Aunt Ma from continuing to talk to Su Jinyao, but she asked Su Jinyao herself: "Little girl, how sure are you that you can get rid of the Gu poison on me (shēn) at one time?" ”

"Forty percent." Su Jinyao said truthfully: "Originally, I was sixty percent sure. But judging from the symptoms you have taken today, the live (xìng) of Gu worms is far higher than I imagined, and the poison (xìng) is also greater. ”

After a pause, Su Jinyao said: "Of course, if I can find the person who has the Gu and use her blood to make medicine, the effect will be better, and I can be seventy percent sure that the Gu poison will be removed at one time." "Actually, Su Jinyao has already diagnosed that the Gu poison in the Queen Mother is exactly the same as the poison in Gu Xuebin back then.

It's just that after a long time, the Gu cultivation techniques of the people who use Gu have also improved. Therefore, the antidote made by Su Jinyao using the original method of dealing with Gu worms has limited effect. But the person who practices Gu is still the same, and his (her) blood must still be effective.

After listening to Su Jinyao's suggestion, the Queen Mother was silent again. The shēn, who was originally lying on his side, straightened up, and he was holding the board with his arms, probably trying to sit up.

Su Jinyao subconsciously got up (shēn) to help each other, and Aunt Ma was also in a hurry to come over to help, and the two helped the queen mother up together.

The Queen Mother looked at Su Jinyao, patted the back of her hand, and said with a smile: "Hehe, the little girl is really sensible." ”

Aunt Ma glanced at Su Jinyao worriedly, and stopped talking.

Su Jinyao was smart and immediately understood that she shouldn't touch the Queen Mother casually. But the Queen Mother didn't say anything, and she didn't have the slightest malice, so forget it.

Su Jinyao said seriously: "Aunt Ma, I still have a way to find someone who practices Gu, if it is the Empress Dowager Ying (yǔn), I can immediately find that person and use his blood to make medicine." ”

"This ...... I'm afraid it's not appropriate. The Empress Dowager spoke first: "Let's not talk about what is the purpose of using a Gu person to deal with this palace, but after all, he is also a human life, how can I bear to use his blood medicine to relieve my self (shēn) poison?" ”

Aunt Ma also said: "Yes, if you can find this person and let him take out the antidote, why hurt him?" The Queen Mother is merciful and will not agree to do this. ”

Su Jinyao hurriedly explained: "Using his blood, it's not about his life, it's the same as the antidote I made, aren't I still alive and well?" ”

After speaking, Su Jinyao was shocked to realize that she had slipped her mouth when she said it, and hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand and took two steps back.

But her words were not only heard by the Queen Mother, but even Gu Xuebin, who was standing on the side (diàn) and secretly looking here.

Gu Xuebin felt a cramp in his heart, and secretly gritted his teeth. He knew that in order to give him acupuncture, Su Jinyao kept trying needles on his own (shēn).

Now in order to save the Queen Mother, she is also using her own blood medicine to detoxify the Queen Mother, how can he live up to this intention?

The queen mother also came back to her senses and said to Aunt Ma: "Go, bring the remaining two pills." ”

"Queen Mother......" Aunt Ma glanced at Su Jinyao with some concern, and said in her heart: This child is really careless, she has already told her not to say it, why is she in such a hurry to say it.

Su Jinyao stood to the side with her hands down, her head also lowered. She is indeed too worried about the Queen Mother, and she wants to cure her "Dean Mother" as soon as possible, so she is messed up.

It's just that now it seems that if the queen mother is angry, not only will the medicine she made with blood be in vain, but it is estimated that the queen mother will not let herself treat her again.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard footsteps behind (shēn). Su Jinyao thought that Aunt Ma had come back with the medicine, and was thinking about how to continue to persuade the Queen Mother to let her take the medicine for a while.

If the Gu worm is not clear, I am afraid that the person who practices the Gu will be scheming again, and it is even possible to use the Gu worm (cāo) to control the queen mother's consciousness. When the time comes, the consequences will be even more disastrous.

However, it was not Aunt Ma who came over, it was Gu Xuebin.

Gu Xuebin also thought that the Queen Mother was eating fasting and reciting Buddha, and she was dedicated to goodness, and she would never easily move the meat. Now that he has taken Su Jinyao's medicine made of blood, he has broken his vows, and he is worried that the Queen Mother will blame Su Jinyao. That's why I walked out.

Gu Xuebin came to Feng (chuáng), directly lifted his clothes and knelt on the ground, and said: "The imperial grandmother is gracious, Jin Yao doesn't know that the imperial grandmother is fasting, and it is also for the safety of the imperial grandmother, so she uses blood medicine." What's more, she used the blood of self (shēn) to respect each other with sincerity and filial piety, which was a heart of all-encompassing respect (ài) to the imperial grandmother, and asked the imperial grandmother not to blame Jinyao. ”

Su Jinyao didn't expect Gu Xuebin to come out at this time. In fact, when she came to the queen mother's dormitory, she didn't see Gu Xuebin, so she knew that the queen mother deliberately retreated, including Gu Xuebin.

But now that Gu Xuebin has come out to help him speak, if the Queen Mother is angry at this time, won't she implicate him?

Thinking of this, Su Jinyao also knelt down with a "plop", and said anxiously: "Yes, Imperial Grandmother (nǎi) (nǎi), when I was making medicine, I didn't know that you were fasting. However, allow me to tell you the truth, I am the one who raises the Divine Gu King, so my blood has a miraculous effect on all Gu worms. Other than that, I really can't think of any other way to help the Imperial Grandmother (nǎi) (nǎi) get rid of the Gu poison as soon as possible. Moreover, seeing you suffer, I am also distressed, and I want you to get better as soon as possible, so please continue to take your medicine. ”

After a pause, Su Jinyao looked at Gu Xuebin who was kneeling beside (shēn) again, and said, "The Gu poison on the crown prince (diàn) under (shēn) is the one I solved." He spoke for me only to prove that my medical skills were not a swindle. ”

Gu Xuebin said: "Jin Yao, you are my benefactor and my sweetheart. I'm not speaking for you to explain, I'm just trying to get punished with you. After speaking, he knelt down two steps towards the Empress Dowager and said, "Che'er begs the Emperor's grandmother (nǎi) (nǎi) to punish together." ”

"What's going on?" Aunt Ma came back with a bamboo basket and saw Gu Xuebin and Su Jinyao kneeling next to the queen mother's phoenix (chuáng).

Aunt Ma felt sorry for Gu Xuebin, why did she run out at this time when she had asked him to avoid it. Therefore, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty the Crown Prince (diàn), you should avoid it for the time being." Miss Liu's side, I'll help you ask for (qíng). ”

"Okay, my old lady hasn't opened her mouth yet, what are you fighting for?" The Empress Dowager spoke, then pointed to the bamboo basket in Aunt Ma's hand, and asked Su Jinyao: "Little girl, check this medicine to see if you asked the Gu family to send it?" Is it invalid? ”

"Yes." Su Jinyao knelt and took the bamboo basket from Aunt Ma's hand, opened the lid on it, and took out the pill that was still wrapped in tendons, veins, grass and grass leaves from the inside.

I don't know who is in charge of this medicine after it is taken, but it is very carefully wrapped, and the layers of grass are very fresh.

Su Jinyao unfolded the leaves, took out the pill and sniffed it, and gently pinched it with her fingertips, trying to play (xìng). Then he nodded and said, "The medicine is right, and it is very well preserved, and the efficacy of the medicine has not lost much compared to when it was first made." ”

The Queen Mother smiled, beckoned to Su Jinyao, and said, "Well, it's good, bring it over and show it to me." ”

Aunt Ma took the medicine and handed it to the Queen Mother. said: "Queen Mother, I think this little girl has a good heart, and it is commendable to have this heart." Queen Mother, just give me a favor, don't blame it. Let her think of another way for you. The Queen Mother waved her hand and motioned to Aunt Ma not to speak, but took the two pills from her hand. I looked at it, and suddenly put it in my mouth.

At this moment, everyone present was stunned. By the time everyone came to their senses, the Queen Mother had already swallowed the pill raw. He also beckoned to Aunt Ma and said with a smile: "Pour a glass of water for the palace." ”

"This, this...... Queen Mother, what are you doing here? Miss Liu said just now that if you take these two pills together, it will be painful. "Aunt Ma has followed the Queen Mother for many years and is the Queen Mother's most trusted grandmother. Now seeing the Queen Mother like this, I am anxious not to say anything, but I feel even more sorry that the Queen Mother will endure greater pain because of this.

Su Jinyao didn't expect that the queen mother was a bold and stubborn old lady. And there is no need to explain, her actions are enough to show her trust in Su Jinyao. In this way, it made Su Jinyao feel more sorry in her heart.

She has already regarded the queen mother as the dean's mother, at least it can be regarded as the dean's mother's previous life.

And Su Jinyao is also very aware of the pain when the Gu poison attacks. Especially when the two pills are taken together, the Gu worm will secrete more toxins than before when the body is dying and struggling, and the pain is really unimaginable.

"Jin Yao, think of a way." Gu Xuebin came back to his senses first, first rushed to the table faster than Aunt Ma, poured a glass of water and held it to the side of the Empress Dowager (shēn), and said at the same time: "What needs to be done to eliminate Gu poison, you can just say it." Aunt Ma and I will try our best to cooperate with you, as long as we can reduce the pain of the imperial grandmother, we can do anything. ”

"Okay, I got it." Su Jinyao also calmed down. She had the style of a healer (shēn), and she was not flustered at this time, but she was a little surprised by the empress dowager's sudden surprise.

Now that he has calmed down, he naturally begins to deduce the method of removing the Gu poison in his mind. It is important to make sure that the Empress Dowager (shēn) is in good health, and that she is also allowed to minimize the pain of the Gu poison attack.

Aunt Ma also understood that this was the queen mother's choice, she trusted Su Jinyao, and because of her kindness, she didn't want to pursue the person who was a trick. That's why I would rather suffer myself and take Su Jinyao's proposal.

Now, distressed to distressed, no matter how anxious they are, they have come to this point, Gu Xuebin and Aunt Ma both chose to help Su Jinyao.

Fortunately, the rest of the idle people have been retired, and there are only the most trusted and close people in this dormitory, so there are no such taboos and scruples.

Su Jinyao already had a plan in her heart, so she said to Gu Xuebin: "I will first seal a few places of my grandmother (nǎi) (nǎi) with a silver needle, so as not to rush and injure the key organs. Then it's up to you to look at the silver needles, and when you find that your grandmother's (nǎi) (nǎi) is in unbearable pain, you have to start performing the needles, which can relieve her pain. ”

"What? Jinyao, you mean, I'll do the needle? Gu Xuebin was surprised and asked again.
