Chapter 555: Poisoning

The emperor was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "The third child's bones are not cold, but the courtiers all say that they must establish a prince." ”

"Do you think that the four princes will become a generation of Ming monarchs? Is it right or wrong for me to appoint him as the prince? ”

The emperor looked a little confused, his five sons, he was picky, and he felt that no one was at ease when this position was given.

The eldest prince disappointed him so much that he deposed the crown prince.

originally belonged to the second child, but the second child also made a mistake. Next is the third and fifth.

The fifth child is his favorite son, but the fifth child is now also imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion.

"You don't seem to have any other choice right now." Su Yizhao didn't know how to answer this question, so he could only seek truth from facts.

The emperor shook his head and laughed when he heard this, "Yes! There is only the fourth child left, and he can only be him. ”

"The fourth child is kind and has always done his best. Although it is modest, there is nothing wrong with it, and it is still okay to keep it. ”

Su Yizhao glanced at the emperor, do you say it's true or fake? This father doesn't seem to know much about his son?

Your Majesty is! Su Jinxun is! Duanyang King too!

But Su Yizhao thought about it, but still didn't believe it. The emperor is so shrewd, will he not suspect the four princes? He's the only one left, so why don't you have to be suspicious?

"In the past few days, I heard that the fourth child is distributing medicine outside the city, and those homeless people are very grateful, and I am very pleased that he cares about the people."

Su Yizhao listened to the emperor's words, and once again slandered in his heart, why do I think you are so insincere?

"The four princes are kind and kind, and they care about the people, which is the blessing of the people. It is his duty to share your worries and relieve your worries for the emperor. ”

Su Yizhao said a high-sounding word, and the emperor just waved his hand.

"The case of the fifth child, you waste some thoughts." As soon as the emperor finished speaking, he coughed violently.

"What's wrong with you?" Su Yizhao stepped forward to support the emperor's bent body, and saw Xu Luo, who was guarding outside, coming in.

"Your Majesty?" Xu Luo stepped forward to support the emperor, but saw that the emperor was still coughing.

"Ahem! Not! The emperor only felt an itch in his throat, and picked up a handkerchief and covered it to his mouth.

As soon as he stopped coughing, Su Yizhao felt that the body in his hand sank.

"Your Majesty?" Su Yizhao found that the emperor had fainted, and hurriedly asked Xu Luo to pass on the imperial doctor.

Outside the imperial study, looking at the imperial doctors who entered one after another, Su Yizhao's heart suddenly felt very heavy.

"Imperial Doctor Xu, what do you say?" A imperial doctor came out, and Su Yizhao hurriedly asked.

"Your Majesty, he was poisoned." Imperial Physician Xu's face was solemn, "And it's a chronic poison." ”

Su Yizhao was shocked, "How is it possible?" The emperor's food was tested for poison in advance, how could it be poisoned? Why didn't you see it before you asked for the emperor's pulse? ”

Imperial Physician Xu also had an ugly face, "This poison is called Bloom, and it is a poison of the Mia tribe outside the Guanwai. This poison is colorless and tasteless, and no symptoms can be seen in the early stage of taking; In the medium stage, you will start to be drowsy, your face will be pale and you will cough incessantly; In the later stage, he coughed up blood and fell into a coma, and the medicine stone was replaced. ”

Seeing that only Su Yizhao was here, Imperial Doctor Xu dared to tell the truth. If the other courtiers knew, he wouldn't be alive.

"Then the emperor has reached the late stage?" Su Yizhao was shocked, "It's not asymptomatic in the middle stage, you always said that the emperor had not healed from the cold, but why didn't you suspect poisoning?" ”

"The emperor's condition is good and bad, and the emperor is old, so it doesn't match the medium-term symptoms too much, so we don't think much about it!

What's more, the Shangmia tribe was annexed ten years ago, and the bloom was originally cultivated by the high priest of the Mia tribe, and the high priest was beheaded as a demon to show the public, who would think so much? ”

Imperial Physician Xu was also very annoyed, and at the same time panicked in his heart. He is now in a war of two forces, and he is afraid that the courtiers will hold him accountable.

"How long has it been since the emperor was poisoned? Is there an antidote? ”

"This poison has been lost for a long time, the high priests are dead, where is the antidote? It has been at least more than a year since the emperor was poisoned. ”

"What? So long? ”

Su Yizhao recalled that it was true that since last year, the emperor's health has deteriorated, but he didn't expect to be poisoned.

The current situation is whether to notify the courtiers or not, but once they are notified, the matter cannot be contained, and it is easy to cause panic.

However, if she doesn't notify her, she can't control it inside the palace, and there will be a misunderstanding, saying that she intends to control the emperor.

"When will the emperor wake up? Are there other cures? Su Yizhao grabbed Imperial Doctor Xu and asked.

"If you get a needle, you can wake up in about an hour."

As soon as Imperial Doctor Xu finished speaking, he heard a sobbing sound from there, Su Yizhao turned his head to look, and found that it was the queen mother in a phoenix robe?

Isn't the queen under house arrest in the Middle Palace? In the past few years, even at the end of the year, the palace held a banquet to entertain the ministers, and the queen mother never attended.

"Your Majesty!" The queen mother cried and wiped her tears as she hurried in the direction of the imperial study.

"See the queen mother!"

Su Yizhao hurriedly saluted, no matter how people came out or how they got the news, she had to salute after all.

However, only she and Xu Luo knew that the emperor was in a coma, as well as a few imperial doctors, how did the rumor leak?

"Your Majesty! I heard that the emperor was poisoned, and the concubines came to visit. ”

The queen shouted compassionately, and then said angrily to Imperial Physician Xu: "Imperial Physician Xu, the emperor has always been your pulse? What are you guilty of? ”

Imperial Physician Xu was so frightened that he immediately fell to his knees, "The minister should die!" ”

"If you can't find the antidote, you just wait for the head to hit the ground!" Resentment flashed in the queen's eyes, and then she was about to enter the imperial study.

Su Yizhao suddenly stepped forward and stopped in front of the queen.

"! The imperial doctor instructed that before the emperor woke up, he should not disturb the emperor. ”

Why does she think the queen is not good? It's better to stop it first.

The queen suddenly raised her eyebrows, "You are a small five-rank official, and you dare to stop the palace?" ”

"Niangniang, the imperial doctor told the emperor to recuperate, and when the emperor wakes up, you can come to visit again!"

Xu Luo suddenly came out of it and said to the queen.

"Imperial Doctor? Those are quacks, and even the emperor can't see that he is poisoned. Now that the emperor is in a coma, the palace naturally has to take on a heavy responsibility. ”

The queen glared angrily, and then ordered someone to take down the imperial doctor.

"Niangniang, now the emperor still needs to be healed, if you arrest the imperial doctor, then who will heal the emperor?" Xu Luo hurriedly dissuaded.

Su Yizhao watched coldly from the side, the queen really didn't come well, this was taking advantage of the emperor's coma to start monopolizing power.

"Naturally, I invited the folk apricot forest masters, recruited wise men, and diagnosed and treated the emperor."

As she spoke, the queen suddenly thought of something.

"I heard that the emperor has been poisoned by chronic poison for more than a year. The emperor has people who test drugs on weekdays, and the person who poisoned him must be the closest person around him. ”

The queen pointed at Xu Luo and shouted angrily, "Xu Luo, isn't it you?" You poisoned the emperor, yes or no? ”

The book is nearing its end, and there are not many chapters left to finish, so the author will prepare a new book when he has time!
