Chapter 45: Entering the Barracks at Night
The emperor was hit by a poisoned arrow, and his life and death are uncertain at present, Chu Jun regretted opening a pair of big eyes in disbelief, he was fine and dignified when he left, why did he become like this now.
Chu Junxi's mind was blank when he was shocked by the sudden news, so he didn't notice that Qin Keqing, who was sitting opposite him, was also shocked by the news.
The sound of knocking on the table sounded in his ears, and Chu Jun came back to his senses, "Huh? ”
"Does Mantou have an enmity with you?" Qin Keqing raised his eyebrows.
Chu Jun let go, only to find that the round steamed bun had been deformed by herself and had been broken, she subconsciously let go, "I'm sorry." ”
Qin Keqing stared at her, "You're worried about him?" ”
Chu Jun was noncommittal, lowered her head and continued to eat, but the movements of her hands were obviously much slower.
Qin Keqing has never known why the first emperor died, and the reason why she, the princess of Heqin, was not martyred, but now it seems that Yuan Yongyan saved her? Looking at her worries about Yuan Yongyan, the two should have a close relationship.
After breakfast, the two continued on the road, Chu Junxi thought about the news he had just heard, his heart was mixed, and he lowered his head and did not speak. Qin Keqing's face was solemn, as if he had something on his mind.
Yuan Yongyan is using himself, he has no heart for himself at all, now he is not injured, what does it matter to him whether he dies or not, although he thinks so in his heart, he still unconsciously thinks of his tenderness to himself in his mind.
Chu Junxi knocked on his head and kept telling himself that those were all fake, it was Yuan Yongyan who used his own means, and he didn't have himself at all in his heart.
The more he warned himself not to think about it, the more he thought about it, and the news of Yuan Yongyan's injury was like a seed sprouting in his heart, making it impossible for him to ignore. Go back to Hou Yan, you have decided to go back, then everything here has nothing to do with you, whether it is the death of the emperor or the new emperor's accession to the throne, it has nothing to do with you.
Just take a look, if you can't see it with your own eyes, even if you return to Hou Yan, you won't feel at ease. Don't go, since you're leaving, just be fine, don't get caught up in the things here.
The two thoughts kept fighting in his mind, Chu Junxi took a deep breath, knowing that it was wrong, but he still couldn't help but take a look, just take a look, no matter what he looked like after seeing him, he would leave immediately, Chu Junxi made up his mind.
Qin Keqing walked in front of Chu Junxi, so she couldn't see his face, "Thank you Gongzi Qin for escorting you for so many days, let's say goodbye." ”
Qin Keqing didn't reply, "I'll send you there." ”
"Huh?"
"Aren't you going to the front?"
Chu Junxi was surprised, "You, how would you know?" ”
"Let's go."
Fortunately, the place where the two of them were located was not too far from the front line, and they could arrive in ten days, and they were worried about the poison on Yuan Yongyan's body, so the speed of the two couldn't help but speed up, so it only took six days to arrive.
At night, the camp was brightly lit, and standing in the grove, you could clearly see the soldiers coming and going inside.
The onset of toxicity can kill people in an instant, and for six days, I don't know how the emperor is in health now. The person was close in front of him, and Chu Junxi found that he hesitated, and his fingers on the trunk couldn't help but tighten.
Qin Keqing got a soldier's clothes from somewhere and was still on the ground, "The camp is in front, you take care of yourself." ”
"Have you already met the person you want to meet?" Chu Jun smiled lightly.
Qin Keqing threw a small bottle to Chu Junxi, "Give him this pill." ”
Chu Junxi took the bottle, "You're also here for him, right?" ”
Qin Keqing sighed again for this woman's keenness, and continued to leave, "The barracks are full of men, you act carefully." "Rumors should not be taken seriously, at least not in accordance with what they heard.
Chu Junxi walked to the depths of the woods with his clothes, took advantage of the fact that no one was around to change into soldiers' clothes, and then tied up his hair and put on his helmet, the helmet was a little big, covering half of his eyes, Chu Junxi lifted the helmet and slowly walked towards the camp.
The emperor's tent is naturally the largest, most luxurious, and the most strictly guarded one, so you don't need to look for it, you just need to see which room is strictly guarded.
It was the rest time of the night, and occasionally three or two soldiers walked through the courtyard, so Chu Junxi walked around the tent without attracting everyone's attention.
"Imperial Doctor Zhang."
“…… What do you think? ”
“…… Yesterday ......"
It was a little far away, and what the two said was not very clear, Chu Junxi quietly approached, wanting to hear it more clearly.
"Do you know what kind of poison is there?"
The old man carrying the medicine box shook his head helplessly, "I'm afraid I won't be able to support it for a few days if it goes on like this." ”
"Are you just waiting to die?"
The old man lifted the curtain and entered the tent.
Sure enough, it was poisoning, even the imperial doctor was helpless, Chu Jun was glad that she came in time, she held the medicine given by Qin Keqing tightly in her hand, and didn't want the emperor to see her, so she could only find an excuse to go in when the tent was empty, and then feed the medicine.
It's easy to say, but it's even more difficult to really do, Chu Junxi hid in the shadow of the tent, his heart was like an ant on a hot pot, anxious.
The imperial physician came out of the tent, "The person who gave the needle has already slept, you stay here, don't let people go in and disturb his rest if there is nothing special." ”
"Yes."
So there is no one in the tent now, the emperor has already slept, it is a good opportunity for him to go in, seize the opportunity, Chu Junxi set off quickly, and just took a step and pretended to be full of arms with one person.
Chu Junxi secretly screamed badly, and hurriedly lowered his head, so close, the other party could easily see that he was a daughter.
The other party left in a hurry, and did not entangle, Chu Jun wondered, looking at his hurried appearance, is he not a thief?
Chu Junxi walked around the tent, walking to the tent from the direction where the imperial doctor came, the guard looked solemn, Chu Junxi lowered his head lower, and tried to calm his pounding heart.
"Stop."
Chu Junxi lowered his voice, "The imperial doctor asked me to send medicine." ”
"Imperial Doctor?" The guards were suspicious.
"The Imperial Doctor has been researching the method of detoxification these days, and finally made a breakthrough, so he made this antidote and sent me to send it."
That is, the imperial doctor sent someone to deliver the medicine, and the guards let the person in.
Chu Junxi stood in the tent, her right hand on her chest, calming her beating heart, fortunately she reacted quickly, otherwise she would have been recognized just now, she bent down and quietly listened outside, and walked in with confidence after making sure that there was no movement.
On the bed lay a man quietly, wearing a silver armor, and his face could not be seen.
Chu Junxi slowly approached, and was taken aback after seeing the man's face clearly, it turned out to be Lin Jikuo, his face was gray and his lips were purple, obviously he was poisoned, could it be that he had found the wrong tent?
Lin Jikuo is the emperor's right-hand man, a very important person to the emperor, but there is only one antidote, and he must save the emperor. Time is pressing, and this place is not suitable for a long time, Chu Junxi is ready to leave, she has to find the emperor's tent.
When he walked to the door and stretched out his hand to lift the curtain, a voice suddenly came from outside the curtain, "Has the imperial doctor been here?" ”
It turned out to be Yuan Yongyan's voice, why is he here? Didn't he get poisoned? Chu Junxi quickly sorted out the news he heard, and instantly came to the conclusion: The rumors were wrong, and it was not the emperor who was poisoned, but the guards around the emperor.
"The Imperial Doctor sent someone to deliver an antidote, and he is feeding the general."
Yuan Yongyan greeted him, lifted the curtain and came in, and didn't pay attention to seeing people busy working by the bedside, "How is he?" ”
Since the emperor was fine, Chu Junxi decided to feed the medicine to Lin Jikuo, and when he heard the emperor's voice, his hand shaking the water, and said in a deep voice, "I haven't seen any improvement yet." ”
Seeing that the emperor didn't look at this side, Chu Junxi relaxed a little, poured out the pill from the bottle, sent it to Lin Jikuo's mouth, and then fed him water, the water flowed out of the corner of his mouth, and she wiped it with a handkerchief.
"The medicine has been fed, and I will come back to observe the condition later."
Passing by Yuan Yongyan's side, Chu Jun saluted, her hand was suddenly grabbed, she raised her head in horror, her eyes were round.
"Who are you? What was it for him just now? ”
