Chapter 160: Strange (2)
Human life is at stake, he still has the heart to bargain with himself, how can he be shameless to such a point!
Meng Xilan looked coldly at the downright despicable villain in front of her, and after the expression on her face changed a few times, she suddenly hooked the corners of her lips, and said with a smile that seemed to come out of nowhere: "Okay, as long as His Royal Highness the Ninth is safe and sound, I am willing to let you go." ”
At this moment, nothing is more important than Zhou Youchen's safety.
Zhou Youwen withdrew his hand slyly: "How can you let me believe you?" ”
Meng Xilan's eyes instantly turned cold, and she directly reached out and snatched the antidote in his hand, and said angrily: "Do you believe it or not." After saying that, she turned around and left with high welfare, not wanting to stay longer for a moment.
In front of Zhou Youlin, Zhou Youwen naturally didn't dare to fight back, looked at Meng Xilan's back, and snorted coldly: "Fourth brother, you have seen it, this girl is crazy!" ”
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhou Youlin menacingly: "I think it's you who is crazy!" ”
"Fourth brother, don't blame me, I was also angry with that kid, so I was confused for a while!" Zhou Youwen didn't look at his dark face, bowed his head slightly and said, "Fourth brother, you have to help me, don't let Meng Xilan betray me." ”
His original plan was not like this, but unexpectedly, he killed a Meng Xilan halfway, so that he gave up all his previous achievements, and ended up with a fate that was difficult to protect.
Zhou Youlin snorted coldly: "If you have the ability to cause trouble, you have to have the ability to clean up the mess for yourself." ”
Those who seek their own death have helped many times in vain.
When Zhou Youwen heard this, his eyebrows jumped almost invisibly: "Fourth brother, what do you mean by this?" Do you really care about me? ”
He has been stammering him for so many years, doing a small volt and low, and there is no merit and hard work.
"Fourth brother, as long as you come forward, that girl ...... No, princess, she would never betray me. Zhou Youwen's tone became flustered for a while, he couldn't just be planted in the hands of a girl.
Zhou Youlin looked at him coldly: "I indulged you this time, and next time I don't know what trouble I will cause without skin and face!" ”
In his opinion, Zhou Youwen has long been an untrustworthy person, and the reason why he still keeps him by his side is only because he is loyal enough, if he is not even loyal, he will have no value at all.
Zhou Youwen was completely panicked when he heard this: "Fourth brother, you must help me this time!" If I let my father know, I'll be in big trouble. ”
Although it is a little late to regret it now, as long as Zhou Youlin is willing to help him, then everything will still have a chance to turn around. Actually, he can't figure out how Meng Xilan's girl knows now, it's really a hell!
"Fourth brother, if I suffer and say something wrong in a panic, it will definitely affect you. So, you're going to have to help me! Zhou Youwen gritted his teeth secretly, and then deliberately reminded him.
He has always been on his side, and everyone inside and outside the palace knows it. If he bites him back, saying that he instructed him to do it, wouldn't there be an excuse to get away with it?
Zhou Youlin's eyes lit up when he heard this: "You threaten me? ”
Zhou Youwen shook his head solemnly: "How dare I threaten the fourth brother?" I just want to help me again and don't embarrass me. I promise, this is the last time. ”
He and him, at all, are people who are in the same boat, and they shouldn't break up now.
When Zhou Youlin heard this, he suddenly raised his lips slightly, but he didn't say anything, and silently turned around and left his room. ”
Zhou Youlin waved his hand at him without looking back, already thinking about it in his heart. He knew that he was a troublemaker, he should have gotten rid of him, but he was too careless.
Meng Xilan took the antidote all the way back to Changqing Palace, at this time, the concubines of all palaces were almost here, even the queen mother arrived, only Concubine Ning, who was still grounded, did not show up.
Empress Su was by the emperor's side, holding his hand and talking to him. The other concubines bowed their heads one after another, pretending to be worried.
Meng Xilan tightened her palms and said secretly: This Changqing Palace has never been so lively as it is today......
There are many people at this time, and it is really inappropriate to want to take out the antidote directly.
Meng Xilan was silent for a second, hid the antidote in her hand in her sleeve, came to Zhou Shixian, and saluted and asked: "Your Majesty, Xilan is really relieved to be His Royal Highness the Nine, I don't know if I can go in and take a look at him?" ”
When Zhou Shixian heard this, he glanced at her meaningfully: "You dare to go in?" Aren't you afraid? ”
Meng Xilan lowered her eyes and replied: "Xilan is not afraid, His Royal Highness the Ninth has always trusted Xilan very much, if I go in to talk to him, he may feel better." ”
Zhou Shixian sighed lightly: "It's okay, then you can go." ”
Meng Xilan bowed again, and when she raised her head, she happened to meet the puzzled face of Queen Su, and unconsciously lowered her head again, turned around and quietly walked inside.
Jiao Changqing was contemplating his eyebrows, and when he saw her walking in without shying away, he was slightly stunned: "Your Highness, ...... you?"
The other imperial doctors came over to salute and greet each other, all of them looking surprised and puzzled.
Meng Xilan gave Jiao Changqing a calm look, and said in a light tone: "I'll come in and see His Royal Highness the Nine, don't care." ”
Jiao Changqing walked to her side, looked at her fixedly, and said, "This place is not suitable for a long time, Her Royal Highness the princess should avoid suspicion." ”
Meng Xilan glanced at the crowd with her eyes, and when no one was paying attention, she suddenly reached out and grabbed Jiao Changqing's hand, and said earnestly: "Master, please be sure to cure Your Highness and find out the antidote." ”
Jiao Changqing was slightly stunned when she heard this, and was about to speak, when she suddenly felt that she had stuffed something into her palm.
Meng Xilan put the thing firmly in his palm, then held his hand with his own hands, blinked his eyes and said, "Master, I ask you!" As long as you are here, Your Highness the Nine will definitely be able to come back to life! ”
Jiao Changqing looked at her quietly, and instantly understood in his heart that the things she gave him were things that could save the lives of His Royal Highness the Nine. However, this will be an extraordinary time, and it is inconvenient for him to ask many things, and she can't say it, only by relying on the trust between each other can she understand.
Jiao Changqing exerted his strength slightly, nodded and said, "Weichen understands." After speaking, he went straight back to the table, deliberately opened his medicine box, and then hid the things that Meng Xilan had just handed over in the medicine box, and then paused for a moment before turning to everyone and saying, "I am sure that the poison in His Royal Highness Nine is really fire poison, so this Pure Heart Antidote Pill will definitely be able to dispel the toxins in his body." ”
As he spoke, he took out a snow-white and transparent pill, which was clearly something Meng Xilan had brought over, but no one noticed anything abnormal.
Seeing this, the other imperial doctors were a little puzzled and said, "Your Highness's body has not shown too many symptoms of poison, but the consciousness is a little unclear. Isn't it too dangerous for us to take medication now? ”
Jiao Changqing said calmly: "Your Highness has been poisoned for more than half an hour, if you don't make up your mind to use the medicine, once the toxin spreads, Your Highness's life will be difficult to protect." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly had no reason to object, anyway, they had to give it a try.
Meng Xilan's mood was extremely anxious, but she didn't dare to interject, so she could only be patient and wait aside.
Gao Fuli asked in a nervous whisper, "Master, do you really believe in the six ...... Him? ”
Zhou Youwen has always been cunning, maybe he is a liar.
Meng Xilan's face was solemn, and she took a deep breath and said, "Time is limited, I can only trust him." If this antidote is fake, then she must do what she says and let Zhou Youwen accompany Zhou Youlin to the funeral.
Jiao Changqing fed the snow-white pill into Zhou Youchen's mouth, drank warm water and took it, and then personally acupuncture the acupuncture points for him. About half an hour later, Zhou Youchen's body began to sweat profusely, and the sweat soaked through his clothes, and even the bedding under him was soaked.
Meng Xilan looked at his face as if it had been washed with water, and said unconsciously worriedly: "Master, what's wrong with him?" ”
Jiao Changqing turned to look at her and smiled slightly: "Don't worry, princess, Your Highness's pulse has calmed down, and the toxins in your body must have been controlled." In other words, His Highness, he will be fine. ”
Looking at his smiling and calm appearance, Meng Xilan's hanging heart could finally slowly fall to the ground.
"It's okay...... It's fine if he's fine......" Meng Xilan whispered in a low voice, holding Gao Fu's hand, and went out to report the good news to everyone.
Zhou Shixian sighed deeply, looked at Meng Xilan, and advised: "Okay, I handed over Lao Jiu to you, you can take good care of him for me." ”
Rather than hand it over to someone else, it's better to hand it over to her, at least she really cares about Zhou Youchen, not like others, she just came here to make a show.
Queen Su was beside her, and spit out a sentence faintly: "What a blessing." "This kid's life is really hard! He can live in the cold palace, and he can live if he is bitten by a poisonous snake, is it possible that behind him, there is really the soul of Concubine Xiao who is blessed...... Just thinking about it already sent shivers down her back. This Changqing Palace is indeed an ominous place, the yin qi is too heavy, and even poisonous snakes can be provoked.
After everyone else left, Meng Xilan returned to the room again, wanting to guard Zhou Youchen inch by inch.
Jiao Changqing deliberately left it until the end, handed her the prescription and said, "This is a prescription for regulating qi and blood, Your Highness, please take a look." ”
Meng Xilan took the recipe and smiled slightly: "Thank you, master." ”
"...... just now" Jiao Changqing opened his mouth again, wanting to ask what happened just now, but he felt that he didn't dare to talk too much, lest the wall have ears.
Meng Xilan smiled at him with understanding: "Just now, thanks to the master's medical skills, I was able to save His Royal Highness the Nine, this is all the credit of the master, Xilan is grateful." ”
She wasn't deliberately flattering him by saying the opposite, but she was really thanking him from the bottom of her heart...... If he hadn't believed her just now, he wouldn't have made such a risky decision.
Jiao Changqing's expression froze slightly, staring at her helplessly, his heart full of curiosity. How did she get the antidote? Why so fast? Why give it to him so secretly?
All these doubts were resolved by Meng Xilan's reassuring smile, at this moment, she only cared about Zhou Youchen, when would he wake up? As for the rest, it doesn't matter.
Jiao Changqing was silent for a moment before he said, "Then...... Wechen took his leave first. Actually, he still has some things about Zhou Youchen and wants to talk to her, but now doesn't seem to be the time.
Meng Xilan watched him leave, and then sat on the side of Zhou Youchen's bed without hesitation, and reached out to shake his hand.
His face was as pale as paper, and his hands were still cold, and he couldn't cover them warmly.
Zhou Youchen was in a coma for a day and a night, during which he almost woke up a few times, but his consciousness was always chaotic, and he couldn't even say a complete sentence clearly, just a few faint words...... Gao Fuli knelt on the ground, leaned over and listened for a while, only to hear that he was calling the master's name: Meng ...... Evening...... Lan......
