Chapter 155: A Double-Edged Sword, His Only Salvation!
"I also knew that the wine had side effects." Gu Liancheng's resolute face was filled with deep pain, "Every time Your Highness finishes drinking, his temperament will become irritable and impulsive, he used to be a very gentle and well-behaved child, and when he becomes like this, even if I see his mother in the future, I don't know how to face it, but!" I'd rather him be like this than make His Highness miserable! β
Si Xianyu touched his chin, "I listened to the general's description, and I think that His Highness should have been given hallucinogenic drugs when he was a child. β
"Hallucinogens?" General Gu was shocked, and immediately shook his head, "Impossible, His Royal Highness is in the palace, and he is the crown prince, who dares to poison him!" β
Si Xianyu corrected, "Hallucinogenicity is not poisoning, for example, the pollen of some flowers has this effect, only if you take it in small amounts, it will not be poisoned at all, but it will make people dizzy, headache, nausea and hallucinations, and after checking, you can't see anything, so those imperial doctors will say that he is not sick." β
Si Xianyu has seen many mutated plants in the last days, among which the mutated mandala flower has a very strong effect on hallucination.
I believe that there must be similar plants in this world.
As long as it is used properly and done without revealing traces, it is not an impossible thing.
"That'...... Then if I find medicine and wine for His Highness, won't it hurt His Highness! Gu Liancheng stumbled, almost unable to stand!
Si Xianyu stretched out his hand to help, "The general doesn't have to blame himself too much, the medicine and wine you found are not harmful to him, although the hallucinogenic medicine is not poisonous, but people spend a long time in such mental torture, and they can't get out of the whole body, if it weren't for the medicine and wine to help His Highness settle down, he would either have committed suicide or been driven crazy by himself, how could he grow up safely and live until now?" β
There are two sides to everything.
That medicinal wine was indeed not a good thing, but for Feng Linyuan at that time, it might really be the only salvation he could find.
Gu Liancheng was still in pain, and couldn't help but cover his face and lower his head, "It's me who is sloppy!" I should look again, maybe there's a better way than that potion and wine!" Blame me! It's all my fault! β
Si Xianyu yawned, "Give me time, he will be fine." β
Gu Liancheng shook his head, "It's time for Miss Si to stop these polite words to comfort me......"
"When have I ever laughed with the General?" Si Xianyu asked rhetorically.
Gu Liancheng was stunned for a moment, and raised his head suddenly, "You...... What do you mean......"
That faintly flickering hope was like a seed in Gu Liancheng's heart, waiting to break through the ground.
But I am afraid that once the soil is broken, all that will emerge is a rotten and lifeless dead seedling.
The amber eyes of the haggard girl were radiant, and Si Xianyu nodded lightly, "I can cure him." β
"Really! Miss Si, are you telling the truth! As long as you can cure Your Highness, I will promise whatever you want! As long as I can take care of my family, even if I spend all my family wealth! β
The iron-blooded general, who had never been dazzling on the battlefield, would be so excited that he almost cried.
Si Xianyu hurriedly pulled Gu Liancheng, who was about to kneel down for her, "Don't worry, general, I will definitely not lose any of the honorarium." "Her brother is settling accounts, and she instinctively compromises this.
Besides, this is what she earns by her own ability, and it should be her reward, what can't she take.
"However, it is not an overnight thing for His Highness to raise this body, and I can't estimate how much of the rare medicinal materials used I need now, and General Gu needs to be prepared for this." Si Xianyu said.
Gu Liancheng was busy responding, "Yes, yes!" Miss Si needs anything, just tell me! Even if it's dragon liver and phoenix gall, as long as there is one in this world, I will definitely try my best to get it for you! As long as you can cure Your Highness! β
Feng Linyuan is the only bloodline left by his sister in this world, and he has watched it grow up since he was a child.
At the beginning of his sister's sickbed, he swore that he would do his best to protect the child's life!
Si Xianyu nodded, "Let's do this today, I have to go back and make up for sleep." β
I couldn't help but yawn as I spoke.
She hardly closes her eyes and rests these days, and she is really tired.
Gu Liancheng was busy and gave way, "I'll let someone send Miss Si back to rest, someone-"
"It's coming, it's coming!" Xiao Zhao Gongzi suddenly came out, "Is His Highness awake?" Then I can meet His Highness, hurry up and make a familiar face, and let His Highness know that I opened the city gate to save him! β
Gu Liancheng, "......"
"Hey you!" Xiao Zhao Gongzi pointed at Si Xianyu and looked surprised, "Why do you look exactly like my master?" β
Si Xianyu was amused, and leaned forward, "I'm your master, what's the matter, it's just that my good apprentice doesn't know me when I change my clothes?" β
Xiao Zhao Gongzi covered his mouth at once, and his eyes were so wide that they could fall out of his sockets!
He trembled and pointed at Si Xianyu, "You, you, you...... I'm ......"
I have to say that although this little Zhao Gongzi doesn't look very smart, he is a bit of a comedian.
Si Xianyu bowed to Gu Liancheng, "I'll leave first." β
Leisurely turned away, the sleeve with a piece of wind, fluttering like a fairy.
"The master is a ...... Female!? It wasn't until everyone was gone that Xiao Zhao Gongzi finally said the sentence that had been held in his throat for a long time.
Gu Liancheng couldn't help but glance at Xiao Zhao Gongzi more, with some sympathy.
Alas, how did such a shrewd family of the Zhao family cultivate such a son?
But fortunately, he was more naΓ―ve, and he was able to open the city gate and let the prince and them in.
β¦β¦
Half a month later, the mighty team sent Feng Linyuan and his party back to the outskirts of Beijing safely.
Before entering Beijing, Jiuye couldn't help but raise his worries, "General, will it be too ostentatious for us to go back with such fanfare?" β
People outside say that the emperor has a preference for the crown prince.
But the people who really experienced this rescue have rods and scales in their hearts.
How much this "preference" is, I'm afraid it's really hard to say.
"It's just to show off!" Si Xianyu, who was on the table with two legs crossed, picked up a petal of orange and sent it to his mouth, "The more everyone is watching, the more those who want to do it secretly have no way to start, isn't it?" β
Well, this Lingnan orange is really quite good, although the appearance is wrinkled, but it has plenty of moisture and sweet taste, absolutely amazing!
Gu Liancheng praised, "Miss Si is really exquisite, you can see through Gu's plan at a glance!" β
Si Xianyu glanced over, "But doing this, it's not good for you to be a general, have you really thought it through?" β
Jiuye was stunned for a moment, and immediately looked at Gu Liancheng nervously.
Why is it not good for the general, could it be that General Gu has something to hide from them?
