Chapter 109: Scarlet Twilight

This is the first time in Dr. Xu's life that he has entered the palace, and he is worried in his heart. The eunuch who led the way did not say a word with a gloomy face from beginning to end, and Dr. Xu did not dare to ask more, but followed with his head down, listening to the dull and hollow echo of the messy and hurried footsteps on the blue brick floor. At the time of unitary, the sun sets in the west. Dr. Xu looked up at the sky, only to feel that the bright glow was as thick and thick as blood, reflecting the empty and solemn palace, and it was even more mysterious.

"This is it." The eunuch said.

Dr. Xu looked up and saw the words "Yongshou Palace", and his heart became even more uneasy. I heard that this Yongshou Palace is the place where the fourth prince Sheng Xuanming, who is most favored by the emperor, lives, and suddenly called him at this time, I am afraid that something has happened to this prince. When he was guessing what was going on, the eunuch had already entered the hall, only to hear him say in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, Xu Hexuan has been brought." ”

"Announce him in!"

So Dr. Xu entered the hall tremblingly, and just knelt down and was about to perform the three bows and nine bows, but he heard the majestic voice and said anxiously: "Excuse me, come and see the four princes!" ”

Dr. Xu hurriedly got up from the ground again, hunched over and walked briskly inside. Only then did he see that there were already more than a dozen imperial doctors gathered in the hall, all of them with panicked faces. Dr. Xu followed their line of sight and saw a middle-aged man in a bright yellow robe sitting on the edge of the bed, looking into the curtain with a worried expression. Listening to the painful moans coming from there, it must be the sick four princes.

"Grass Folk Xu ......"

"Let's stop talking that nonsense for now, let's see what's going on!" The Emperor said.

"Yes." Dr. Xu bent down and carefully lifted the corner of the tent and glanced at the bed. Just one glance scared him dumbfounded.

Previously, he had always guessed that the condition of the fourth prince must be extremely tricky, otherwise he would not have let so many imperial doctors invite him from outside the palace. Despite this, Dr. Xu was still heavily shocked. I saw that the skin of the four princes was exposed, and there were soybean-sized bubbles on it, all of which were blue and black. In some places, the bubbles had festered, mixed with the pus and blood, and it was very shocking. That's it, the most surprising thing is his half-open eyes, which are burning from the eyeballs to the whites of the eyes with a bright red color like blood, which at first glance looks as terrifying as a demon possession.

Doctor Xu carefully put the wrists of the four princes flat on the bed, tried to calm down as much as possible to check his pulse, and tried his best to press the nausea feeling surging in his chest, and carefully examined the whole body of the four princes. After pondering for a while, he lifted up his robe and knelt in front of the emperor and said, "According to the grass people's humble opinion, His Highness has not only been poisoned, but also mixed with a variety of very small amounts of poisons, and these toxins interact with each other, causing His Highness's condition to be very complicated. Judging from His Highness's pulse, although this poison is not fatal, it can also cause some unbearable pain. Like what...... The current situation. "In the past two years, under the influence of Zhilan, Dr. Xu has also learned more or less about the properties of some poisons.

"I also know that this is what every imperial physician says. Do you say it can be cured? There was some impatience in the Emperor's tone.

"This ......" Doctor Xu suddenly made a difficulty, if it was him, he would definitely be helpless. Such a complicated situation is like a bunch of silk threads that can no longer be messed up, or even tied into a dead knot, how can people solve it? What's more, he doesn't know more about detoxification than those imperial doctors. But what if it's Miss Lin? Although he was confident in Miss Lin, he was not sure if she would be able to solve the problem at hand.

After thinking about it, Dr. Xu decided not to involve Miss Lin, so he gritted his teeth and said: "This poison is too complicated, and the grass people are afraid that they have more than enough heart and not enough strength." ”

"Enough heart but not enough?! Good, good. The emperor slowly stood up from the side of the bed, looked at Dr. Xu quietly for a while, and suddenly said, "I am very curious. If the person who was poisoned today is the third child, I don't know how you, Doctor Xu, will answer? ”

Doctor Xu's body trembled slightly imperceptibly, and then replied firmly: "The grass people still answer the same. ”

The emperor's expression was full of sarcasm, and he only heard him sneer and said: "I heard that the third child was a famous incomprehensible poison in the world, why were you so sure at that time?" "I have heard that Doctor Xu and the Lin family have always been good friends, and what I saw today is indeed true.

Doctor Xu straightened up and replied in a voice that was neither arrogant nor humble: "If you go back to the emperor, it is true that the Third Highness is indeed highly poisonous in junior high school. Although the toxicity of that drug is ferocious, there is still a solution because the ingredients are relatively limited. Now the poison in the four highnesses is formed by the convergence of almost all kinds of poisons in the world, and because the dosage is extremely small, His Highness has never worried about his life. But if you want to completely dissolve it, you can't. If the drug is taken rashly, it will cause changes in the properties of the drug, and may even worsen the condition. Therefore, the grass people do not dare to open their mouths. ”

Doctor Xu's bold words caused the doctors to nod frequently. Before Dr. Xu came, they also thought the same. But the emperor still held on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that the divine doctor would have some different opinions, and insisted on recruiting him into the palace. Now it seems that everyone's opinion is still the same, but I wonder how the emperor will react when he hears the news that his favorite fourth son has no cure? The imperial doctors couldn't help but sweat for Dr. Xu, and also sweated for themselves.

I saw that the emperor's face was sinking like water, and the sharp eyes that had been staring at Dr. Xu looked at the imperial doctors again, and swept over them one by one, as if in this way they could find the answer to the antidote. There was a dead silence in the hall, only the faint moans of the four princes echoed intermittently in the hall, and the hearts of the people were entangled for a while.

I don't know how long it took, but the emperor finally sat down on the edge of the bed. Even if he is the Son of Heaven, he still has to accept this fact. I saw him look at the unrecognizable four princes in the curtain with a look of regret, and muttered to himself: "Even so, I don't believe that there is no antidote in this world?" ”

A imperial physician stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the so-called world is so big, there are no surprises. There are those that can be poisoned, and naturally there are those that can be detoxified. The minister thought that the key now was to find the person who poisoned him. ”

These words seemed to remind the emperor of something, and he immediately sank his face and said sharply: "What about Li Shaoze? Call him in and talk back! I'd like to ask, how did he, the Minister of the Guard, become a minister?! ”
