There's nothing more exhausting than waiting.

Zhuang Siyan was in a hurry, and looked at the old master with good eyes.

Like Cai Zhouping, she also calmed down, although she was anxious, she refused to interrupt him, let him finish treating everyone, slowly raised her eyelids and asked: "There are all mother and child worms here, but the original female worm is not among them, what about that person?" ”

Xiao Ling lowered her head, and Zhuang Siyan was silent for a moment.

She asked, "Do you want to start with the first female?" ”

Master nodded: "That's an origin, you have to see him first to know the time of this female worm, and the extent to which it can be diagnosed." ”

Zhuang Siyan didn't understand anything about controlling poisonous insects, but as long as there was a way, it was a good thing, and they asked people to go outside the palace to find Qingran at the moment.

Qing Ran actually had a slight reaction in his body because of the poisonous insects.

The incubation period of this poisonous insect is relatively long, and when he first entered, he didn't feel anything, just like a normal person.

But as time goes on, as the subworm multiplies more and more, the original female worm will grow bigger and bigger, enter his blood, internal organs, and hollow out his entire body.

Even at this time, it is difficult for others to see how different he is on the surface, but he will notice something, such as his mobility is not as good as before, he is always without energy, or he is in a trance.

Qing Ran is now stuck in the stage of exhaustion.

After the matter of the poisonous insect itself was revealed, his mood was not very good, and he was affected by the insects, so he couldn't lift his energy.

He rarely goes out, and always feels that the wind outside is blowing, as if it is about to blow him, so he snuggles up in the house and lies on the bed when he has nothing to do.

Sometimes when I look at the sky outside from the window, I will be stunned for a while.

The heavy clouds pressed day after day, and everyone thought that the snow was about to fall, but it never fell, but the gap between the sky and the earth became smaller and smaller, and it made people feel as if they could not breathe.

Qingran woke up very early that morning, but she didn't want to get up, and she lay lazily as if she had no strength.

The medicine that Zhuang Siyan brought back was effective for others to eat, but it seemed that he was still like that when he took it, there was no obvious change.

He lay down thinking, is he dying?

When facing death in the real face, everyone should have some horror in their hearts, so when Qing Ran thought of this, he felt a chill rise in his body.

At this moment, Ji Xiaotian knocked on the door outside.

He knocked and spoke: "Master, I brought you breakfast, you can eat a little." ”

Qing Ran was too lazy to respond, he didn't even want to open his mouth, but this child was very strange, he used to die of skin, but since he was with him, the Ji family was scattered again, and he seemed to have grown up to ten years old all of a sudden, and he became sensible in an instant.

didn't make a fuss before, and got up early every day to help do some detective agency affairs.

Qing Ran's poison was caused by him, others didn't know it, but he himself knew it, so he cared more about Qing Ran than others.

At this time, Qing Ran was silent inside, he kept knocking on the door outside, and explained: "Master, don't bother, I didn't mean to disturb your peace, or you didn't eat last night, and if you don't eat today, you'll be hungry, so you want to eat a little more, right?" ”

I can't sleep, if Qing Ran keeps lying down, maybe he can break in.

In desperation, he looked outside and said, "Come in." ”

The voice was low and hoarse, with some indescribable sense of depression, like an old man in the twilight, completely devoid of vitality.

Before Qing Ran could come back to his senses from his voice, Ji Xiaotian had already come in with a bowl and plate.

He glanced at Qing Ran, who had already been diagonally diagnosed, and was busy putting things on the table, before he walked over and stretched out his little hand to try his head.

was suddenly dodged by Qing Ran: "Don't you know that I have poisonous insects on my body?" It's good that you didn't get it, so stay away from me. ”

Ji Xiaotian's eyes were strange when he looked at him.

But he didn't say anything in the end, only moved the meal forward a little: "Master, let's eat something." ”

Qing Ran let out a "hmm", looking at the food but showing no interest.

However, as soon as he looked up and saw Ji Xiaotian's eyes looking at him, he still picked up the bowl and took two bites casually.

The bowl was much heavier than usual, and after a while, he felt that his arm was tired, and he really had no taste, so he put it back again.

"I don't eat, it's winter, I don't do anything, I'm not so hungry." Qing Ran said.

Ji Xiaotian's mouth opened, and in the end, he didn't say anything, and packed up his things and took them out.

As soon as he walked to the door, he saw the butler hurriedly come in: "Is Lord Qingran here?" There was a message from the palace asking him to hurry in. ”

Qing Ran's body, which was about to be crooked, suddenly straightened up again.

For the first time in so many days, he felt that there was still strength in his body.

He quickly put on his shoes and socks, changed his clothes, and came out to ask the butler, "Who sent me a message to let me in?" ”

The housekeeper said, "Of course it's Mr. Si, hurry up." ”

When Qing Ran was about to go out, he also took a look at the bronze mirror on the table, and saw that his face inside was not very good, and his hair seemed to be a little rough, but in general, it didn't seem to be much different from the past.

Men, don't pay too much attention to appearance, let's see what's going on in the palace first.

He reached for his sword and found it so heavy that it nearly broke his arm.

Looking back, you can't bring weapons when you go to the palace, and you have to keep them at the palace gate when the time comes, so it's better not to bring them.

After several days of snow, it finally started to fall, and flakes of snowflakes like cotton wool fell gently from the air, and it didn't take much effort to spread a layer of white on the ground.

The air is colder, and the air is frosty.

There were no fewer pedestrians on the street, still busy with their own business, there was a naughty child, who was playing in the snow, leaving a lot of shapes on the side of the road, and there was a long list of miles.

Qing Ran walked over those footprints, and a few children were not very satisfied, turned to look at him and asked, "Hey, the road is so wide, why are you stepping on our flowers?" ”

Qing Ran also turned back.

Suddenly, he saw a familiar face in the children.

The face was strange and familiar, as if he was himself many years ago, immature and stubborn, obviously weak, but pretending to be very strong.

He remembers that he was also very fond of snow at that time, and every time it snowed, he would go out with the boys to have snowball fights.

Later, the house broke down somehow, his parents died, and he wandered with everyone.

Later, I traveled north and south, and then followed different people and mixed different lives, and somehow came to the capital......

The things of the past, like snowflakes, fell in front of his eyes one after another, and became a white expanse.

Qing Ran thought, it's really strange, how can I think of these today?

He shook his head and heard some strange sound from his neck, but he didn't pay much attention to it and continued to walk towards the palace gate.

There were already people from the Xuan Hall waiting for him, and as soon as he saw people coming in, he went directly inside.

Qing Ran followed Zhuang Siyan for a long time, except for those most difficult days, Ling Tiancheng was not in the capital, they pretended to be palace maids, hid in the backyard of the Xuan Palace and protected her, and they had never been here at other times.

However, the situation in the palace seems to be the same as outside, and it will not change for ten years.

When he came, he actually had a feeling of returning to the beginning, everywhere was in a trance, and the figures were floating.

He whispered to the eunuch beside him: "Is there any danger to the imperial concubine?" ”

The little eunuch didn't speak, but just turned his head to look at him very strangely.

Qing Ran felt that his eyes seemed to imply something to him.

There was also a layer of snow on the floor of the Xuan Palace, but because the Internal Affairs Office had been cleaning, the road surface was still very clean.

Qing Ran came in from outside, and when he walked up, he left wet footprints on the road.

He looked at his toes and thought, "Xiaoling doesn't know what's wrong, why didn't she come out to pick him up?" ”

There were already a circle of people standing at the entrance of the side hall of the Xuan Palace.

Ling Tiancheng and Zhuang Siyan were in the first place, and in addition to the palace maids and eunuchs, there were also Mi Huai'an and his master.

After Qing Ran arrived, his brain woke up a little from the mess.

Seeing that the emperor naturally wanted to salute, he hurriedly took two steps, and he was about to kneel down, but as soon as his knee bent down, the whole thing seemed to collapse, and he went straight down.

Before Zhuang Siyan and the others could react, Master Mi collapsed in one step.

He reached out and grabbed Qing Ran's arm, and the other hand dragged him from behind, already dragging him up.

Then he hurriedly ordered the people behind him: "Quick, carry the soft couch over." ”

Everyone panicked, especially Xiao Ling, she hurriedly turned to the inner room, and saw that there was already a eunuch carrying the soft couch, and she hurriedly came out again.

Forgetting that Ling Tiancheng and Zhuang Siyan were there, they hurriedly rushed to Qingran.

was blocked by Master Mi: "This girl, please stand away a little." ”

Xiao Ling's voice was dry, and the sentences seemed to be stuck in her throat, and she asked after a while: "He...... What happened to him? ”

Master Mi didn't reply to her, and after placing Qing Ran on the soft couch, he hurriedly went back to Ling Tiancheng and them: "This person is no longer good, now we must prepare a big vat as soon as possible and put him in it." ”

Zhuang Siyan asked: "What do you want to do in the vat?" ”

seemed to suddenly realize that something was wrong in his words, and quickly asked again: "What did you just say, he can't do it?" What does it mean to not be able to? ”

Master Mi said: "His internal organs, the blood has been eaten up by the mother worm, and now this body is still there, we must boil out the poisonous insects in his body as soon as possible, while he still has a breath, so that we can draw out other poisonous insects." ”

This kind of words, when said on any occasion, will give people goosebumps.

Rao is Zhuang Siyan usually has a lot of ideas, but at this moment, he was also confused.

At least the Qing Ran they saw was still a living person, and he would salute when he saw them, he just looked weaker, how could he be a dead man just like he said?

Ling Tiancheng looked at her sideways, and seeing that she didn't speak, he had already guessed what the situation was, and immediately called Li Fu: "Go quickly, prepare the vat, firewood, and call all the people from the Tai Hospital." ”

Then he asked Master Mi, "You can use herbs, now you prescribe the medicine, and I will let people prepare it immediately." ”
