Chapter 120: Boiled Prince
Compared with the close guards who take a high monthly service, Tan Luo naturally thinks that she is more reliable in the hot water room.
It's not that there is a saying in the world, that a companion is like a tiger. At first glance, this prince is a ruthless character who eats people and does not spit out bones, fighting wit, she can't fight him, fighting bravely, does she dare to beat him!
Sure enough, the silver taels were not taken for nothing, but since she couldn't resist fate, she also had to struggle to the death, and she had to pull a few cushions before she died.
"Your Highness Shengming, but my subordinates are worried that their unscrupulous temperament will be difficult to adapt to in Jingren Palace, so can you let Nanfeng and Linyuan also come over to accompany me, bah, I mean, come and serve the prince."
"Since he is a trustworthy person of Tan Guard, it is not impossible to do things in Jingren Palace, so let Gonggong Liu arrange this matter."
Tan Luo stared at the bright yellow bed curtain for a long time, it seems that she really seems to have some misunderstanding of the prince, how can such a good talking master be a cautious and cunning man.
"Thank you for the success of the prince, you are wise and martial, and your bearing is extraordinary! As soon as the prince stomped his feet, the earth had to tremble three times, and the prince was mighty, and the chickens and dogs jumped and chased after him."
"Ahem-" Jing Yao was angry.
"Master, what's wrong with you, don't scare the little one, now you are my food and clothing parents, don't have anything wrong! In fact, about detoxification, his subordinates still have a lot of experience. "When she first learned alchemy, she still didn't have a problem with the mid-level detoxification pill.
"Then Gu asks you, how can you change a person's pulse and make him have a sign of poisoning?" Jing Yao asked casually.
"This" Tan Luo looked at Xuan Cheng hesitantly and muttered, "It's not that there is no way, but you have to take risks." β
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
"Then I'll be straight to the point, in fact, the safest way is to take poison. Subordinates can prepare a slightly toxic drug, and various poisoning symptoms will occur after taking it. β
"Bold, how can Your Highness risk your life, it is better for your subordinates to disguise themselves as Your Highness's appearance and take this poison!" Commander Tian said anxiously.
"Commander Tianβ" Jing Yao interrupted, slowly getting up, and lifting the curtain.
Tan Luo only saw a pair of white jade carved fingers come into view, followed by the slender figure of a man's orchid branch jade tree. Her black hair was long and black, glowing like stars in the candlelight, and she had never seen a man's hair look so good, reminding people of the starry sky under the sky.
Jing Yao just casually gathered the loose plackets, his posture was idle and slow, and he was indescribably elegant.
The man paced here, plump and handsome, and the wind god was lifting, like a god.
If Hongyi is a turbulent torrent, then Jingyao is a bubbling mountain stream. The two are rigid and soft, just like two extremes that are not integrated.
Jing Yao's tall figure stood in front of Tan Luo, but judging from his appearance, this man did have a stunning appearance.
Under the sword eyebrows, which are not thick or light, the narrow eyes are like gurgling spring water, exuding a strong warmth, warm and moist like a spring breeze. The thin diamond lips are as watery as color, and the lips are picked out in a half-moon-shaped arc.
The son of Magnolia is really stunning, and Ren is ruthless and moving. What's more, this man looks gentle and affectionate, and everywhere he goes, he is the presence of stars and moons.
It's just that smile that doesn't reach the bottom of his eyes, although this man is not as cold-eyed and vigilant as Hongyi, but he is actually used to confusing everyone and hiding his heart, and he will not easily trust any outsiders after all.
It's like the moonlight, but the other half is shrouded in darkness.
Jing Yao didn't think much of her, but just said gently: "How sure are you about dispensing?" β
"Ten percent!"
"Okay, Lone believes that Tan Guards have this ability, so I will do it your way."
This man, he actually agreed?
"The last time the assassin poisoned him was not a bloody poison, but a chronic poison that would not cause people to die immediately. This poison is extremely difficult to solve, and the poisoned person will also have symptoms of coldness and drowsiness all over the body, can you prepare a similar drug? β
"If it is a symptom of cold poison, it needs to be supplemented with herbs such as ice lotus and cocoon. In order to make the prince look more like he was poisoned, his subordinates suggested that he use medicine to smoke into his body. But please rest assured, since I can prepare this medicine, I naturally have a way to detoxify, although it is slightly toxic, it will eventually damage the heart. β
"What materials does Guard Tan need, even if you mention it, Gong Liu will fully cooperate with you. However, in terms of medicinal materials, they can only be taken from the East Palace, and if they lack anything, they will be prepared to purchase them outside the palace. β
This fox, who dared to relentlessly, also installed cronies to monitor her, but also, it is rare for such a noble master to be willing to risk his life, and if he is a bystander, it is estimated that he will casually pull a dead ghost over to take poison.
"It's getting late, so stand down, all of you. Commander Tian, the East Palace strengthens its defenses, and King Qin will definitely not give up. β
"Yes!"
After Tan Luo and they withdrew from the dormitory, she went directly to the East Palace Pharmacy, this medicine must be dispensed tonight, and after tomorrow morning, Hongyi will bring his cronies Imperial Doctor Xu to visit.
If they see the clues, the matter of the crown prince pretending to be poisoned will be greatly disadvantageous to him.
The pharmacy is located on the southeast side of the bureau, and inside, the pharmacy doctors and apprentices are busy preparing and cutting medicines.
As dawn approached, she finally boiled a boiler full of potions. Next, it is to coax the prince into the boiler.
Early the next morning, Jing Yao came to the pharmacy, but saw that on the makeshift stove in the room, a huge wooden barrel was steaming with steam, and the strong medicinal fragrance was emanating from it.
Tan Luo tested the temperature of the water, and said without raising her head: "Take off your clothes." β
Jing Yao thought of the so-called medicinal bath, but did he really want to take a bath in this kind of burning wooden barrel?
Seeing that the other party was unmoved, Tan Luo looked up at him: "Prince, this medicinal bath must be soaked for at least half an hour before it has an effect, don't rub it any longer." β
Jing Yao said a little uncomfortably: "Lone knows, you stand down for the time being." β
"Eh, I'm leaving, who will help you see the firewood to test the water temperature, in case the fire is too strong, what should I do if you cook it, where will I pay!"
Jing Yao recalled that when he was marching and fighting in the past, he had never bathed and changed his clothes under the gaze of others, and he was not used to it now.
So, he took off his robe and shoes and socks, intending to step into the barrel.
"Wait, master, how can you completely absorb the drug and strip it naked through your clothes like this!"
Sample, want to fight with me? Withhold my silver, right, ask me to block the knife for you, how can you not seize the opportunity now to repair you.
It's nothing to undress now, and then it's enough for you to stand it.
"Then you carry it first." It's too awkward to strip in front of others, and besides, this young man's eyes feel obscene no matter how he looks at it.
"It's not like I haven't seen it!" Tan Luo whispered.
"What did you say?"
"It's nothing, I mean, it's not like I haven't seen it, man......"
She muttered, turned around and heard the sound of a soo behind her, accompanied by a "bang" of water, and the man stepped into the tub and sank into the water.
"It's time to turn around."
Tan Luo then turned around, but saw that he gritted his teeth, and his face turned pale as if he was enduring pain.
She pretended to be worried and asked, "Master, how are you feeling now?" β
"Why does this water make people feel so painful and itchy?"
"Does it hurt like thousands of silver needles piercing the flesh, itching like thousands of ants gnawing, and it feels particularly uncomfortable?"
Jing Yao is not only uncomfortable, it is simply painful, it is better to end it with a knife. He stretched out his hands and was about to scratch, but was held down by the other party.
"Master, this medicine can be toxic, if it scratches the skin and seeps into the body, it will be very damaging to the body." Tan Luo misled him deceptively, "At this moment, you have to hold back!" β
"Guard Tan, why does Gu feel inappropriate, isn't it more convenient to drink medicine?" Jing Yao was blindfolded, and his skin was flushed.
"If the decoction is taken orally now, the imperial doctor invited by King Qin will know that he has just been poisoned as soon as he checks the pulse. Only a medicinal bath can allow the toxicity to soak into the internal organs and deceive the past. β
This is true, she just added a few more herbs to the water, so that the prince soaked the bones**, which will be unforgettable for life.
"Master, do you feel a chill in your body, and a chill in your bones?" Epi saw that the flush on his skin had faded and turned pale.
Jing Yao bowed his head and submerged his neck into the water: "Although the water is hot, a chill rises in the body. β
"That means it's working."
"Guard Tan, this medicinal bath can also make people sleepy" Jing Yao half-closed his eyes and finally slipped into the water.
Before the medicated bath passed his mouth and nose, Tan Luoyan quickly scooped him up.
"Master, wake up!"
Tan Luo squatted outside the wooden barrel, a pair of soft wattles tightly held the man's slender jade hands, and if he relaxed slightly, the other party would slide into the water.
There is a thin layer of calluses on the palm and fingertips of the prince, especially at the tiger's mouth in his right hand, which is obviously because he has been holding the sword for many years.
Tan Luo was just in a hurry when she caught him just now, but now she realized that the two of them held their hands like this, palms close to each other, and they were indescribably ambiguous and intimate.
She lay down in front of the barrel and looked at the man closely, her lips always slightly hooked upward, and even in her deep sleep, she seemed to smile. And those eyes that are often squinted give people a gentle and elegant feeling, like a spring breeze.
No, it's supposed to be called an illusion!
This man is good at confusing the world with a gentle and friendly image, smiling innocently and harmlessly, and very easy-going, but in fact he is a sinister and cunning fox man with a sweet mouth.
was born with such a good skin, he was really ruined by him, and this black hair, which is softer and black than silk, is really beautiful and unreasonable, miserable!
"Have you seen enough?"
"Huh!" He didn't even fall asleep?
Jing Yao's closed eyes opened a slit, his eyelashes fluttered, and he smiled again: "Your eyes are too aggressive, I was woken up by you." β
Tan Luo was surprised, the prince called herself "me" to her, well, she really hadn't woken up yet.
"Guard Tan, why did you lose your beard, but it looks more handsome this way" Jing Yao laughed again, his voice muttered softly as if he was drunk.
"Let me see you clearly," he closed his eyes and leaned towards Tanluo, his slightly raised lips lightly pressed against the girl's cheek.
