Chapter 158: Tricks (4)
"Your Highness!" Everyone screamed, but Meng Xilan couldn't make a sound with her mouth open. Her eyes kept staring closely at the wound at Zhou Youchen's tiger's mouth, and a chill continued to pour out of her heart.
The fangs pierced the flesh, with a slight pain, but they were unusually sharp. Zhou Youchen was also an afterthought, lowered his eyes and looked down, only to realize that he had been bitten.
It's terrible!
Gao Fufu reacted quickly, hurriedly looked around, took an empty flower pot from under the flower bed, and lifted a thick stone slab: "Your Highness, quickly throw things away!" ”
When Zhou Youlin heard this, he immediately threw the long snake into the flower pot, and Gao Fuli immediately covered the stone slab on it and sealed it tightly.
The crisis was temporarily alleviated, Zhou Youchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly, his body suddenly felt uncomfortable, his head was a little heavy, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Meng Xilan stretched out her hand and pulled him to sit down in front of her, she looked down at his hand, the wound on the tiger's mouth was already bruised...... Is it really poisonous?
The surrounding people also gathered around, panicking and saying, "Your Highness...... Is Your Highness poisoned? ”
Zhou Youchen's forehead broke out with a burst of sweat, his body leaned back, and he pulled the corners of his mouth stubbornly: "I'm fine......" After speaking, he grimaced at Meng Xilan again, and his face became extremely pale.
How could he die so easily...... No, it can't be.
Meng Xilan lowered her eyes involuntarily, Zhou Youchen's skin was very white and thin, she could clearly see the blood vessels and green tendons under his skin, if he was really poisoned, then now, the venom that seeped into the wound was flowing around his body......
Meng Xilan's chest was suffocated, and a bad premonition surged in her heart, but in the next second, she almost instinctively lowered her head, pressed her slightly trembling lips against his wound, and then, closed her eyes and sucked hard, trying to suck out the poisonous blood inside.
His hands were cold, and the blood was cold, a little fishy, a little sweet.
Meng Xilan struggled to overcome the fear in her heart, and spit out the poisonous blood she had sucked out one by one, and it was red and black...... An ominous color.
The unfamiliar touch on his hand made Zhou Youchen begin to wander in his consciousness, and gradually found a node where he could stop. He didn't have the strength to control his body, so he could only tilt his head and look at Meng Xilan...... In fact, at this moment, he could only see her, and he couldn't see anyone else anymore.
Her movements were intimate, as if she was kissing the back of his hand, and there was a warm and soft touch on her skin, accompanied by his shallow breathing, sometimes near and sometimes far away......
At the moment when he lost consciousness and closed his eyes, the last person Zhou Youchen saw was Meng Xilan, although he couldn't see it clearly, he still felt that it was a good feeling.
The palace people next to them had already seen it stunned, Zhu Lu and Zhu Qing stepped forward, and were about to open their mouths to beg their masters not to do this, but Gao Fuli reminded them: "Don't talk to the master, if the master swallows the poisonous blood, it will be all over......"
To tell the truth, at this moment, only the master dares to do such a thing! Because she really cares about His Highness the Nine......
After a while, the imperial doctors finally hurried over, and the group led by Jiao Changqing waited for a group of people to be startled by the scene in front of them as soon as they stepped into the Changqing Palace.
Jiao Changqing frowned even more, looking at Meng Xilan with deep meaning.
She and Zhou Youchen sat next to each other, their expressions seemed calm, but their eyes were panicked, her lips were stained with blood, red and black, slightly hideous, which more and more highlighted her anxious and complicated mood at the moment.
"Your Highness...... It seems to be poisoned, snake venom! "Gao Fuli saw Jiao Changqing, it was like seeing a savior.
When Jiao Changqing heard this, he instantly understood what Meng Xilan was doing. There is no doubt that she is risking her life again......
Jiao Changqing didn't think much about it, he immediately opened the medicine box he carried with him, took out the antidote pill he had configured from it, and ordered the eunuchs to serve Zhou Youchen and take it immediately.
Meng Xilan's mouth was filled with the taste of blood, which was the taste she was most afraid of, and now she had to rinse her mouth with water immediately.
Jiao Changqing has always been calm and neat in trouble, he separated Zhou Youchen and Meng Xilan for diagnosis and treatment, Zhou Youchen's body has begun to show symptoms of poisoning, and Meng Xilan seems to be fine, he ordered the palace maids to go to the imperial dining room, and then bring the strongest wine there and rinse Meng Xilan's mouth, the more times the safer.
Meng Xilan rinsed her mouth over and over again, even her jaw began to ache, her mouth obviously had a strong smell of wine, but she could still feel the smell of blood, I don't know if it was because of psychological effects.
Zhu Lu and Zhu Qing were so anxious that they both cried and red-eyed, looked at Meng Xilan's slightly trembling back, and murmured softly: "Where did the master get such courage? How dare you...... How dare you ......"
Thinking of what had just happened, they couldn't help but start to be afraid. If the person who has just been bitten is the master, then ...... Until now, Zhulu's heart is still pounding.
Passing by the Grim Reaper at close range again, Meng Xilan was a little unclear for a while what reality was and what was a nightmare. Xu Yes, she has struggled too much in the nightmare, and this kind of scene is enough to make her emotional collapse, and along with the heart that has always pretended to be strong, it will also become fragile and unbearable.
Those painful memories, all the time, will pull her back into deep despair and make her unable to extricate herself.
At this moment, Zhou Youchen's body was still suffering and tormented by snake venom, and Meng Xilan was even more tormented.
After a while, Jiao Changqing came to her, slowly squatted down, and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, Weichen needs to diagnose your pulse." ”
Although there are still many imperial doctors in the dormitory, because it is Meng Xilan, he can't trust others, he only believes in himself.
Hearing this, Meng Xilan raised her head slightly, stared at his anxious face, and asked lightly, "Master, His Royal Highness the Ninth ...... Can it be saved? Her voice trembled a little, as if she was suppressing the strong emotions in her heart.
Jiao Changqing sighed softly, and said in a thoughtful tone: "Wechen has already given His Highness the antidote pill, which can stabilize the toxicity in his body, so Wechen must dispense the antidote within an hour." ”
He only has one hour, if he can't break the disease within an hour, then Zhou Youchen will either die or die.
Because the snake that bit Zhou Youchen has been caught, as long as he can distinguish whether it is wind poison or fire poison, he can prescribe the right medicine. However, the doctors at the hospital didn't seem to know anything about the snake, and no one could recognize what kind of snake it was, where it came from, and no one could find its name in a book.
Right now, this is the most tricky situation, because I don't know what kind of poison it is, so Jiao Changqing can't make a judgment right away.
Meng Xilan grabbed his hand suddenly: "Master, you must save His Royal Highness the Nine, he was bitten in order to save me, it's me, it's all because of me!" ”
In this world, it is estimated that no one will be able to experience the pain of the death of the people around her because of herself.
Jiao Changqing was slightly stunned, and then patted the back of her hand as if soothing: "Your Highness, rest assured, Weichen will do his best." ”
Whether it is for Meng Xilan or Zhou Youchen, as long as he can do it, he will do it.
"For the sake of insurance, Weichen still has to ask for the princess's pulse." Jiao Changqing grabbed her wrist as he spoke, he had to make sure she was okay before he could feel at ease.
The news of Zhou Youchen's poisoning soon reached Zhou Shixian's ears.
He was originally still walking in the garden with Li Jieyu in Qixia Palace, but after hearing about this, Long Yan was furious and kicked the eunuch who came to deliver the message down several steps.
Li Jieyu was slightly stunned when she saw this, but she was still silent and never persuaded him to say a word.
Zhou Shixian hurried to Changqing Palace, but what he saw was Zhou Youchen, who was already unconscious, and the imperial doctors who were in a room full of anxiousness.
"A bunch of rubbish, all of them rubbish!" Zhou Shixian couldn't help but burst out angrily. "If Lao Jiu has a bad mistake today, you all have to wait for the funeral."
Recently, he has lost a child, a small life that died before it was born. If Zhou Youchen has another good one, it will be equivalent to God asking him for half his life.
Just when everyone was busy detoxifying, a thought suddenly flashed through Meng Xilan's chaotic mind.
Just now she was panicked, so she didn't bother to think about the ins and outs of the matter.
The poisonous snake suddenly appeared in the Changqing Palace, but where did it come from? This is a royal palace, and it is not a remote mountain forest in the wilderness, how can there be such a poison?
Meng Xilan calmed down, hurriedly called the little round beside Zhou Youchen, and asked, "Do you know where this poisonous snake came from?" ”
The little circle was already frightened, but when she suddenly asked, her legs trembled in fright, and she couldn't stand steadily: "Your Highness, it's not a minion, the minion doesn't know ......"
Meng Xilan saw that he was flustered and couldn't even speak clearly, so she immediately slapped the table heavily and said, "You listen to me, you give me a good thought, have any outsiders been to Changqing Palace recently?" Or, what's the strange thing? ”
Xiao Yuanzi shook his head tremblingly: "No, my master has always disliked to associate with people, except for Your Highness...... No one wants to come to Changqing Palace. ”
Indeed, the people in the palace are very shy about this place, even if Zhou Youchen's current identity is different from the past, no one is willing to slap him, the new "Big Red Nine Emperors".
Meng Xilan held her forehead, thought about it and said, "Poison is not allowed in the palace, this poisonous snake must have come from outside...... But what do you want to bring in such a living creature? ”
The rules in the palace are strict, and when you leave the palace and enter the palace, the items you carry must go through layers of meticulous inspections, how can you not find it?
Gao Fuli listened, and seemed to think of something all of a sudden, and hurriedly said: "Master, do you want the slave to go to the palace gate to inquire?" ”
He had often heard that some little eunuchs often used all kinds of methods to bring back all kinds of gadgets from outside in order to make money in the palace. When they entered the palace one by one, they were all safe and sound, and it is said that they all bought off the palace guards in the name of their own masters. If it is something from outside the palace, the palace maid and eunuch are absolutely unavoidable, but if it is the master's thing, I am afraid that no one will dare to stop it easily, but the people at the palace gate will definitely keep the file on time in case of accidents.
"What do you want to look up?" Meng Xilan knew very little about the trivial matters in these palaces.
"Master, as you said, if this thing really comes from outside the palace, then the person who brought it in must be a master, and it is also a master with a lot of background."
