Chapter 43: Poison into the heart and lungs
In the Tai Hospital, Chen Weiyan was dispensing medicine on the table, and he was the only one in the huge pharmacy.
I smiled and asked, "Why are you on duty every time it rains?" ”
He weighed the last herb and put it in his medicine bag. "Why did Miss Jin come here today?"
"The emperor wants me to send some soothing medicine to Princess Nata." I picked up some of the medicines in his medicine bag, put them on the tip of my nose and smelled them, the special smell of licorice came to my face, I quickly put it down, and I felt a little sick to my stomach.
Chen Weiyan rolled his eyes, overflowing with surprise, I followed his gaze and unconsciously brushed the tail of my eyes. "What's wrong?"
He took out a mirror from the cupboard, and in the bronze mirror, above the veil, from the end of the eyes to the tips of the eyebrows, was the same totem as on the arm, only darker in color, almost vermilion. I turned my back to him and lifted the corner of the veil, and the entire left side of my face was covered with vermilion marks, as if outlined with a thin pen, and the lines were combined like half-blooming red lotus, which I could not wipe off with my hands.
My heart was beating so fast that I couldn't even breathe well. I wanted to be able to regenerate my muscles and bones, but it backfired.
"The toxins in your body have not been suppressed, they have exploded, are there still these traces on your body?" Chen Weiyan said in a deep voice.
I put the mirror back in its place, and I didn't know how to answer.
He took out a small bowl, poured some water, sprinkled some powder from a porcelain bottle, dragged my hand without any reason, and picked through my fingertips with a needle, and a drop of blood fell into the bowl, slowly spreading, and the color of the blood slowly turned a dull purple.
I broke away from him and clenched my fist in my sleeve.
"Miss Jin, if you still want your life, let me tell the prince that the prince knows a master of the Dao, he should have a way, and now I can't do anything."
Jokes, I don't believe it, I'm all mediocre people in the Night Pavilion, and I don't even have a decent doctor?
"No need, give me the tranquilizer, don't find me someone else to match." Saying that, he threw his sleeves and left, and he stuffed the medicine into my arms.
The drizzle and breeze are like numbness.
Ten Spice Surui is not an ordinary thing, there are no more than five people who know its existence, and there are no more than five people in the Liu family, this flavor medicine was originally used to deal with the relatives of the emperor who committed the crime of rebellion, and it can kill people in the shortest time. It's just that later the owner of the Liu family had a whimsical idea, and carried out a new transformation on the basis of this flavor medicine, and achieved the current Shixiang Surui, as soon as Master Liu died, no one could cultivate Shixiang Surui, and he spent his whole life and failed to find an antidote to it.
I've cornered myself with no turning back.
Walking aimlessly in the palace, Chen Weiyan's words were still in his ears.
My aunt knows that Shixiang Surui is medicine, but she doesn't know if it is medicine or poison, or poison, if she knew, she would never let me risk my life, now that there is such a mess, how can I explain it to her.
Reaching out and pulling the veil high, he lowered the left side of his head and obscured it.
A person suddenly came to mind in his mind, Mo Yin.
Quicken your pace all the way through the pavilions and gallop towards the palace gate.
At the gate of the palace, it was the shift handover, and Mo Yin happened to be replaced.
I cleared my throat and shouted, "Brother Mo." ”
Mo Yin looked at me, said goodbye to his companions, and followed me all the way to a secluded and remote back garden.
"Pavilion Master......"
"Mo Yin, you are the person next to your aunt, do you know who else in the Dark Night Pavilion is proficient in medicine besides your aunt?"
He tilted his head and thought for a while, then said, "The oldest pavilion master in the pavilion is good at medicine, and in addition, there are three elders...... The rest are for a little bit of fur and self-defeating. ”
"Three Elders? There are only two elders in the cabinet, how can there be one? "Things got complicated, and I couldn't straighten it out.
He hesitated for a long time and replied: "The third elder retired before you entered the pavilion, the young pavilion master, that is, the current Qingzhu Sage, but he is uncertain, no one has seen him again, even the old pavilion master has cut off contact with him. By the way, why did the Pavilion Master suddenly ask about this? ”
The atmosphere was condensed, afraid that he would think of something.
I wanted to cover it up, so I asked, "How did you save Princess Nata?" ”
"I happened to see a group of people bullying a weak woman, so ...... I didn't expect to meet the pavilion master, I don't know if the pavilion master asked me to stay in the palace? "He was easily redirected to other topics.
"I need your help in the palace."
He nodded, "Never give up." ”
Yu Guang saw a sachet hanging from his waist, and the embroidery on it was crooked, and he could vaguely identify it as a Gesang flower. "Where did this sachet come from?"
Mo Yin lowered his head and stammered, "This...... This is ......."
I knew that I didn't want to embarrass him more. "Okay, you go to dinner, I'll go back to Longcheng Palace."
Generally, women embroider sachets will only embroider peonies and mandarin ducks and the like, Gesang flowers are things on the grassland, I have never seen anyone embroider, just think about it and know who this person is.
At night, I shirked the duty of Longcheng Hall because I was unwell, and Aunt Zhiqiu asked me to rest well and go to Longcheng Hall to serve myself.
I tried to cover it up with powder, but in vain, the grotesque marks were even more horrific than the previous burns.
At night, a light is like a bean, and a dull halo of light is cast on the wall.
Leaning on the bed, I thought about a lot of things, thinking about the meaning of all this I was doing, for the sake of my father and the country I had never met, or the queen mother who had only one side of the relationship.
In the final analysis, I just can't let go of my hatred, and my hatred for the Liu family has turned into hatred for Beiyan.
"Knock knock." There was a soft knock on the door, and he rolled over and got out of bed, put on his coat, and hurriedly put on his veil.
I complained in my heart, who was here to disturb people's rest so late.
When I opened the door, the wind and rain brought it, and the cold air rushed into the house, and the candlelight flickered, flickering and dimming.
The person in front of him was only dressed in a single shirt, and he was a little cramped standing at the door.
"The Emperor...... "I was just about to be blessed, and he took a step ahead of me to hold my shoulder.
Behind him was just endless darkness and the sound of the wind, there were no guards of the brigade on weekdays, and there was no Li Mingquan who was waiting at any time.
"I heard you're not feeling well, so come and have a look." He glanced into the room and said solemnly, "It's raining so hard outside, can't you go in to take shelter from the rain?" ”
His pale gray eyes had a sly smile, like a fine piece of ice floe under the cold moon, slowly blooming.
"The slave is terrified." I blocked the door and didn't want him to go in.
His eyes were half-lowered, and the light under them was as bright as it could be. "I'm going to Huainan tomorrow to find out what is going on, about three days."
"Your Majesty."
He raised his eyes and stared, a wry smile escaping from his lips. "You have a good rest."
The raindrops on the eaves hit his shoulders and seeped into his clothes, and he slowly turned around and walked into the rain.
It was as if something had pricked my heart, and it tickled and ached.
He is no longer the stubborn boy I remembered, and I am no longer the simple and kind mind I once was.
"Your Majesty." I opened my mouth to call, took the umbrella standing in the doorway, and opened it to him. "On the way, take care."
"Okay." He gripped the handle of the umbrella, and the shattered ice in his eyes turned into lukewarm water.
I want this Beiyan country, and I want him to completely relax his vigilance against me. What I want, no one can stop me anymore.
