When he returned to the dormitory, he first watched Yan Qi put Xiaotong down on the bed in the side hall, and then returned to the main hall after taking care of it. Xiaoxiao was still dozing off and waiting, and when she heard me coming in, she immediately woke up, and asked sleepily, "Niangniang, are you back." ”

I nodded my head and asked Ah Ping if she was vomiting, she shook her head and said no, and it was quiet when she fell asleep. It's late at night, let Xiaoxiao go to sleep, there is no need for her to serve here. After I lay down next to Ah Ping, my mind was uneasy for a while.

Others may think that every day is uneventful, but my day is full of things from morning to night. At this point, I wanted to go to Pan and found that I was very tired, so I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

I was woken up, my head was very heavy when I opened my eyes, and I delayed for a moment before I heard the voice in my ear: "Niangniang, wake up quickly and see what is going on with the emperor?" It's already too early, and the slave and maid won't wake up no matter how much they call the emperor. ”

Suddenly, it's too early to dawn? Hurriedly got up and pushed Ah Ping, who was sleeping inside, and called twice, but he still didn't wake up. Was it because you got too drunk last night? I asked the maid next to me if she had prepared the decanting soup, and the maid immediately replied that it had been prepared a long time ago, and after bringing it to me, I asked someone to help me support Ah Ping, and then planned to feed the decanting soup.

But the moment Ah Ping was half-helped up, my eyes froze, and there was a black line on his exposed neck. I didn't want to drop the sobering soup to tear off his collar, my face turned white, and I exclaimed behind me: "Ah, the emperor ...... him" I turned around sharply and scolded: "Shut up!" Those present are not allowed to step out of the temple gate for half a step, and those who violate the order will be beheaded. ”

This was my immediate reaction at that time, but if this situation spread, it would definitely cause chaos in the DPRK and China. After I gave an order, two black-clothed people suddenly rushed in from outside the hall, I was taken aback, and my heart was confused, and I was relieved to recognize one of them as Uncle Mu. Ah Ping said that there were secret guards around me before, but I didn't think it would be Uncle Mu.

The maid was escorted down, and Yan Qi and Xiaoxiao came in one after another. Xiaoxiao understands medical science, so she asked her to come forward to inspect first, and after she looked at the black line around Ah Ping's neck and then looked at her eyelids, her face was already white.

"Niangniang, the emperor is poisoned."

I thought of it immediately when I saw it, and that's what struck me. As the emperor, Ah Ping has undergone several tests on all meals, and it is impossible to have poisoned food that can be served in front of him.

Xiaoxiao proposed to me: "Niangniang, pass on the imperial doctor." ”

"Little Seven." I called Yan Qi, "You go and invite Imperial Doctor Jiang over, be sure to keep it secret, and let Uncle Mu send someone to cover you." ”

At this time, I didn't trust anyone, I only trusted the old lady. Yan Qier rushed out without saying a word, and during the waiting period, my whole person was tense, and there was no sound around me, and the atmosphere of the space was depressed and stagnant.

It wasn't until there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall that my eyes slowly turned to the temple door, and the sound of the steps seemed to step on the tip of my heart. I have nothing to fear about the consequences of this incident, and the event itself that really scares me is the person next to me, even if history tells me that he can't have something to do at this time.

The old lady came into sight, let Ping retreat left and right, and then took off Ah Ping's coat, until the top was all off, and I was shocked to find that the black line actually extended from the heart to the neck. I suddenly thought of cold ice ~ poison, and my brain was shocked for a moment, how could I forget this poison? Before the old lady could speak first, I was already anxiously asking, "Could it be an attack of ice and poison?" ”

But I heard the old lady reply: "No." The emperor, whether judging from body temperature or symptoms, does not look like an attack of ice and poison. Let's talk to Lao Chen about what's going on, when did you find out that there is this black line? ”

"I was just going to call him to the court but couldn't wake up, I thought it was because he was drunk last night, and I was trying to pour some sobering soup, and found that there was a black line around his neck." I briefly recounted what had happened in the morning, and at this point I couldn't panic, I had to calm down.

The old lady asked me to think carefully about the Mid-Autumn Festival last night, and asked me to be so meticulous that I had to remember what food Ah Ping ate, how much wine he drank, and when he was drunk. At the same time, he was already taking out the silver needle from the medicine box and sterilizing it with fire.

I can't remember exactly what Ah Ping ate at the banquet, there were so many people at the banquet that it was difficult to tell who secretly poisoned him. After returning to the palace, the food was originally prepared, and the wine drunk was brewed by Ah Ping himself, which layer went wrong?

Knowing that the old lady doctor asked such a question, there must be a reason, and he wants to cure the root of the poison prophet. At this time, he was already acupuncture for Ah Ping, although he did not understand medical skills, but after experiencing several times he pricked Ah Ping, he knew that he must be using acupuncture to seal the toxicity and prevent it from spreading. Holding his breath and concentrating, he waited until the old lady pricked several silver needles, and found that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"How?" I couldn't resist stepping forward and asking.

The old lady doctor raised her body and looked very hesitant: "The old man doesn't know whether to talk about it or not." ”

"It's all now, what else is there to say?"

The old lady frowned, "The old minister did not detect toxicity when he pricked the emperor's needle. "I was stunned, how could it be? What is the black line from his chest up to his neck? And he hasn't woken up yet.

I saw that the old lady turned around and pulled out the three needles that pierced Ah Ping's eyebrows, the middle of the person, and the mouth of the heart, "Niangniang, please see, these three silver needles have not turned black, if they are poisoned, these three acupuncture points will be able to be measured." ”

"So what's going on with this black line? And why didn't he wake up? ”

The old lady shook her head, "The old minister can't find out the root cause for the time being, so he has to ask the mother to ......."

"Mother." Outside, a smile was shouting, interrupting the old lady's words.

I frowned and walked over and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Niangniang, my father-in-law outside came to ask again, when will the emperor be able to go to court, saying that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty are already waiting in the palace."

My heart sank, and the sudden accident of Ah Ping here made me panic, and I couldn't make accurate judgments and disposals. But at this time, Ah Ping's situation was impossible to go to the court, and I could only order when I hesitated in my mind: "Go to the father-in-law to say that the emperor was drunk and had a cold last night, and he will stop the court for the time being...... On the third day, if the courtiers have a performance, they can submit it. ”

Xiaoxiao questioned in surprise: "Three days of boycott? ”

I gritted my teeth and nodded. I know that as soon as this decision is promulgated, it will definitely cause a lot of discussion in the whole court, but I can't risk saying that it will only be one day, otherwise tomorrow Ruo Aping will have to find another reason if he does not wake up; But if Ah Ping can wake up, the predicament he may encounter can be over.

In any case, there will be all kinds of pressure in the future, but I can't think about it that much at the moment.

The old lady stayed and tried all kinds of ways to try to treat Ah Ping, but he couldn't do it. We have tested all the flasks, cups and plates we drank last night, but we have not found the source of his possible poisoning. I had to suspect that someone had secretly poisoned the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I asked the old lady if it was not a problem with her diet, but something else?

The old lady doctor was not sure that there was no effect after inserting the needle into Ah Ping's Baihui acupoint, so he had to prescribe a prescription to try it first.

This was the first day of Ah Ping's accident, and he spent it in panic and worry. When the next day I moved back a lot of pieces and my father-in-law came to report that some courtiers had asked to see the emperor, I suddenly realized that something was wrong.

If those recitals have not been replied to, the courtiers will have some doubts, and then they will play to see Ah Ping, what should they do? The reason he found before was only that he was drunk and contracted a cold, and it was outrageous to strike the court for three days, which must have caused dissatisfaction among the courtiers. Now, if you waste and do nothing, you may be impeached by those old ministers.

Sure enough, in the evening, I heard a report from outside that Mrs. Fang was asking to see him outside the hall.

I don't want to come forward to greet this old pedant, especially because he has a prejudice against me, I'm afraid that if I come forward, it will be interpreted as a harem meddling. asked Yan Qi to send him back on behalf of Ah Ping, although Mrs. Fang was very dissatisfied, but he was helpless.

In the dead of night, I sat down at the table, and did not rush to annotate the folds, but first looked through the folds that Ah Ping had annotated before, and then copied his handwriting on the white paper. I only hated that I didn't feel the ancient Chinese terms and traditional Chinese characters before, and Ah Ping tried to teach me to write several times but I shirked it, and now it's so difficult to hold on to Buddha feet temporarily.

I practiced until the second half of the night, and finally proofread the handwriting that was almost the same, and then I went to see the folds that were presented.

Although I haven't been to ask about the affairs of the court, I see that those long and large articles are all on paper, and some scholars are selling literature, which is not realistic, so I make annotations accordingly.

One is that a flash flood occurred in a certain place in the south, which required the imperial court to allocate a sum of relief funds and send appropriate officials to the disaster relief; The second is to advise Ah Ping to fill the harem, extend the prince more, and suggest that the concubine autumn election system be restarted.

I cannot comment on the former, the amount to be allocated is enormous, and I do not know who is the right official to do it; The latter is something I don't pretend to be generous with. Therefore, the two folds were pressed down, and most of the folds were annotated before the morning court, and the palace people were instructed to send them to the palace.

Finally, on the third day, there were no more courtiers asking to see me, but the confusion in my heart became more and more intense, today is the third day, and Ah Ping has no sign of waking up. How to deal with tomorrow's early dynasty? Do you want to excuse yourself with physical illness?

But the old lady's efforts in the past three days were not in vain, he did not find out what kind of poison Ah Ping had been in, but from various examinations, he judged that the cold ice poison in Ah Ping's body seemed to be neutralized. So his perennially cold hands and feet showed signs of warming, and the color of the black lines spreading up his chest seemed to be slowly fading.

I don't know if this is a good side, I can only hope that the old lady doctor can wake up Ah Ping on this last night.
