Chapter 206: Re-diagnosis of the pulse, the so-called evidence
The queen's hand turned the Buddha beads for a moment, and the strength was not well controlled, and the string of Buddha beads directly collapsed. In the silence of the room, this sound is particularly thrilling. The imperial doctor trembled, forcibly held back the trembling in his hands, and said in a trembling voice: "This poison is called Beixu, and if the Bodhi seed and the Buddha's hand are kept together, the poison will be produced. But fortunately, Niangniang has changed the spices recently, and the food she eats has a conditioning effect, and the situation has improved a lot. ”
The Emperor stretched out his hand and slapped it heavily on the table, and angrily rebuked: "Tell me more details! ”
Tai Hospital Yuan was wiping a cold sweat, stretched out his right hand to pinch his left hand, which was already out of control, held back the trembling of his teeth, and said: "Tell Your Majesty, what the minister means is that these two items will only produce toxins when they are put together, and the queen mother is blessed for a long time, and it happens to be a spice." At the same time, the mother is kind-hearted and only eats vegetarian food, which is why the situation is gradually improving. ”
The mind was much clearer, and the words of the imperial doctor were much clearer. As soon as the cause and effect were explained, the faces of the emperor and empress were obviously much better.
The Tai Hospital was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, but saw the emperor directly stretch out his hand: "Come, give me a pulse." ”
As the mother of a country, it is extremely appalling that the queen was poisoned with two items that produce toxins, but she didn't expect the emperor to stretch out his hand at this moment. There was already a cold sweat on the forehead of the courtyard, but he didn't dare to disobey the emperor's words and disobey the order.
Putting his fingertips on it, he was so nervous that his trembling fingers could barely touch anything. Cold sweat slid down his forehead to his chin and then onto the ground. Seeing this, the old emperor waved his hand to signal him to go down first, and pointed to a doctor who seemed to be quite calm.
"Imperial Doctor Zheng, come here."
Imperial Physician Zheng has not been in the hospital for a long time, and his age is not very old, but because of his superb medical skills, the old emperor has relied on him a lot, and the concubine and his own monthly peace pulse are invited by Imperial Physician Zheng, if you say who knows the emperor's physical condition best, it is undoubtedly Imperial Physician Zheng.
At this moment, he was named by the emperor and asked to come forward to diagnose the pulse, and Imperial Doctor Zheng did not panic. Carrying the medicine box, he walked to the emperor in small steps and knelt down, stretched out two fingers and put them between the old emperor's well-maintained wrists.
Everyone in the hall almost held their breath, just waiting for him to tell the result. It took a long time for Imperial Physician Zheng to withdraw his hand under the gaze of everyone and quickly poked into the medicine box at hand.
However, in the blink of an eye, Imperial Physician Zheng usually only used to grasp the needle of medicine held a small silver knife that was extremely sharp. And the sharp tip of the knife fell on the neck of the emperor closest to him.
The chief eunuch who had been waiting behind the emperor reacted and shouted, "Imperial Doctor Zheng, don't do stupid things. Put the knife down, you're doing something disrespectful! ”
His heart was anxious, and his voice became even sharper. Imperial Physician Zheng was extremely impatient in his heart, and shouted, "Shut up for me!" ”
This sound not only made the chief eunuch shut his mouth, but also made the queen and the doctors of the imperial hospital who wanted to speak. Seeing their appearance, Imperial Physician Zheng was obviously extremely relieved in his heart, and sneered, he almost said with hatred: "Great disrespect? I've done something disrespectful! From the time I put the poison of divorce into His Majesty's medicinal diet, I had no way out! ”
The faces of everyone in the hospital were pale, and the hospital couldn't stand the stimulation and passed out directly. Imperial Physician Zheng didn't seem to see it at all, stared at the old emperor's slightly frightened face, and said in a cheerful voice: "From the moment I poisoned it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I were grasshoppers tied to a rope. Now that the matter is revealed, it is better to kill you directly, so that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can ascend the throne! ”
The disrespectful words came directly from the mouth of Imperial Physician Zheng, causing the eyes of the people in the room who were still awake to widen their eyes, and the chief eunuch shouted loudly: "Imperial Physician Zheng, turn back to the shore!" ”
Imperial Physician Zheng was impatient and almost wanted to stab them to see the color, but when the knife was just raised, a sharp pain came from the back of the neck. Turning his head, he saw a sword that was cold and blood-colored.
And in front of him, the chief eunuch had already half-grabbed and half-dragged the old emperor away!
After confirming that Imperial Physician Zheng was dead and the old emperor was safe, the chief eunuch didn't care about the pain in his body, first helped the emperor up, and then knelt down to confess: "Your Majesty, please forgive the minister, I just rushed into Your Majesty in a hurry." ”
He has a meritorious role in saving the driver, and the old emperor will naturally not be harsh on him. With a wave of his hand, he sat on the soft chair and gasped a few times, and then said, "You are also for my safety, get up, let the imperial doctor show you the injury." ”
The chief eunuch just wanted to say that the old emperor should treat the wound first, but he closed his mouth tightly after thinking of what happened to Imperial Doctor Zheng just now. The queen took the medicine from the imperial physician and asked the leader of the secret guard to examine it carefully, and then carefully applied it to the wound for the old emperor.
The clothes of early winter were not too thick or cold, but they somewhat offset the force of the knife hitting the neck. Although it seems to be in the critical place, it is extremely terrifying, but in fact it is not very serious. In a few moments, the bleeding stopped.
The tingling sensation in his ears brought by the medicine reminded him of the existence of the wound, and the old emperor took a breath, his mind cleared up a little, and then he continued: "Call Liu Yushi back to me, there is no need to investigate this matter." ”
The leader of the guards immediately took the order and left, but everyone present felt a little uneasy in their hearts. Naturally, they all knew the meaning of the old emperor's words - Liu Yushi impeached the prince before, but he only listed the charges one by one, but there was no evidence. The emperor gave him three days to gather evidence, but he didn't need it now. A single stab in front of the royal court alone was enough to plunge him into a place from which he could never recover.
This matter is so sure that there is no need to track it down.
Touching the wound on his neck, the old emperor took a breath and instructed again: "Put the prince in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, no one is allowed to visit without his will!" ”
The transmission of this news did not shy away from the people in the palace, and Concubine Liu knew the news almost immediately. After confirming that the emperor's will was very resolute, Concubine Liu fainted directly. Finally, when she woke up, it was already the middle of the moon.
In the darkness, she almost rolled out of bed in a hurry. The maid on duty at night heard the movement and immediately rushed in, lit a candle and immediately came over in a panic after seeing this scene, "Niangniang, are you okay?" ”
Concubine Liu pushed the palace maid away, stood up with the carved flowers on the bedside, stood on the ground with her bare feet, as if she didn't feel cold at all, grabbed the palace maid's arm tightly, and asked like crazy: "Qianxia, where is the prince?" What about the Prince? ”
