Chapter 170: The Poison of the Yanbei Imperial Family

Sheng Qingyuan frowned and said, "I don't know, but I always feel that this General Ye looks at me a little strangely?"

"He shouldn't be trying to make any calculations." Shen Zhao said.

Ye Lin is a bright and upright person.

I never disdain to use conspiracy, even if it is a scheme, it must be an honest conspiracy.

"It's not a calculation, it's just ......" Sheng Qingyuan frowned, "I can't tell, anyway, it just feels like something is not right."

"Since you can't figure it out, don't think about it yet, and rest well." Shen Zhao said.

Sheng Qingyuan shook his head, "I have to find out the cause of Emperor Yanbei first."

She couldn't tell what was going on with Emperor Yanbei's body.

His body is like a medicine jar and a poison jar, and according to this situation, he should not have a few days to live at this time.

On the surface, he also looks like he can lose his breath at any time, but on the contrary, his actual physical condition is not so bad, which is why he can still live well.

But all in all, Emperor Yanbei's current body is like a combination of contradictions, which is really confusing.

When Sheng Qingyuan was entangled, King Heng came and brought a table of delicious food.

"You shouldn't have eaten yet, I brought some dishes from Yanbei, I don't know if you can get used to it." King Heng said with a smile.

The words fell, and the little maid on the side took the meal out of the food box.

The moment the food box is opened, the aroma of the food immediately wafts out, which makes people smell and whet their appetite.

Sheng Qingyuan was not polite, picked up the chopsticks and tasted them, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Do you still like it?" King Heng asked Sheng Qingyuan with a smile.

"It tastes good!" Sheng Qingyuan nodded again and again.

During this time, I was either at the border or on the way here, although I never had a short time to eat and drink, but I also did not have the time and opportunity to have a good meal.

Chu Xuanjin is not a person, she has been stuck with the materials sent to the border pass, and the soldiers at the border pass can eat enough, or she has transferred a part of the rice grain through Tianxianglou to fill the stomachs of so many people.

The taste of Yanbei is a little heavier than that of Da Zhou, but it is heavy but not greasy, and the taste is very good, especially when it comes to rice.

"If you like to eat, you can eat slowly." Seeing Sheng Qingyuan eating so much, King Heng's eyes couldn't help but show a little smile.

Looking at King Heng's care for Sheng Qingyuan, Shen Zhao's eyes deepened.

Noticing Shen Zhao's eyes, King Heng smiled and asked Shen Zhao, "King Jing doesn't like it?"

Shen Zhao's face was pale and said, "This taste is a little heavier for me."

"These dishes are relatively light, King Jing can try them." King Heng pointed to the other dishes and said, "I know that the taste of Da Zhou is relatively light, so I'm worried that you won't get used to it."

It is precisely because of this that when he saw Sheng Qingyuan like to eat so much, the smile between King Heng's eyebrows and eyes was even worse.

"King Heng is so free, can he still bring food himself?" Shen Zhao asked meaningfully.

King Heng said with a gentle smile on his face: "I am indeed quite free on weekdays, I am a rich and noble prince, not to mention, now Princess Jing still has to treat the imperial brother, I, as a younger brother, can I take care of Princess Jing who treats the imperial brother?"

This sounds fine, but Shen Zhao always feels that it doesn't seem to be that simple.

Sheng Qingyuan didn't say much, just buried himself in cooking.

Seeing that she ate so deliciously, King Heng had to eat more bowls than usual, so he accidentally supported himself and felt uncomfortable, but Sheng Qingyuan prepared medicine for him to help digestion.

"King Heng is not too young, how can he still eat a meal?" Shen Zhao asked lightly.

The corners of King Heng's mouth twitched.

What is called is not young.

He is the youngest brother of the imperial brother, if you count it, he is at most seven or eight years older than Chu Chengchi, less than thirty,

Why is it not young.

Can this man speak?

King Heng snorted and said, "I didn't watch Princess Jing eat so deliciously, so I unconsciously ate a little more."

Sheng Qingyuan looked at Shen Zhao and then at King Heng.

It stands to reason that these two people didn't have anything to do with each other before, so why do they seem to have a little more gunpowder smell when they look at it now?

Let's change the subject first.

Sheng Qingyuan asked King Heng, "Lord Wang, before General Ye Lin left, he mentioned the Ice Lotus on the Snow Mountain, your Yanbei Imperial Family has a poison, and the one used is the Ice Lotus, I wonder if the Lord knows about it?"

King Heng said in a low voice, "Of course he knows."

Sheng Qingyuan came to his senses all of a sudden, waiting for King Heng's next words.

With a little helplessness on his face, King Heng said, "This is the unique poison of the Yanbei royal family, and the royal brother also has this poison on his body."

"Looking at the appearance of the prince, the prince seems to have known all along?" Sheng Qingyuan asked.

King Heng nodded and said, "Yes."

"Someone poisoned Your Majesty?" Sheng Qingyuan asked again.

King Heng shook his head, "It should be said that this is the poison that the imperial brother himself inflicted."

Sheng Qingyuan frowned puzzled, "Why?"

"The people of the Yanbei royal family, since they were born, will carry a very strange poison on their bodies, this poison has no solution, and no one knows how it came about, but if the ice lotus is used as medicine, then this poison can be suppressed. Of course, after the ice lotus is used in medicine, it is also a highly poisonous." King Heng said lightly.

"Poison from birth?" Sheng Qingyuan's brows furrowed.

"Well, so, in order to save their lives, almost every Yanbei royal family will have the poison of the ice lotus on their bodies, which can be regarded as fighting poison with poison." King Heng said.

"Almost?" Sheng Qingyuan caught the key words.

King Heng smiled lightly and said, "First, the Ice Lotus is limited, and not all people in the royal family can use a sufficient amount of Ice Lotus to suppress the poison in their bodies. Second, the ice lotus itself is highly poisonous, and if you take too much, the damage to the body will be greater."

Although King Heng had a smile on his face, he was helpless, "The more ice lotus you use, the stronger your potential will be in a short period of time, but your life will be shorter. If the ice lotus is used less, people will look weaker than ordinary people, but they can live a few more years."

This leads to a difference in the choice between whether to live a few years shorter, but live more comfortably, or to live a few more years, but to live a little weaker.

"So is there anyone who hasn't taken Ice Lotus since the beginning, but who can survive?" Sheng Qingyuan asked.

"Yes." King Heng gave Sheng Qingyuan an affirmative answer.

Then he said, "My eldest sister, when she was just born, there was not much ice lotus left, and there was no ice lotus on the snowy mountain, at that time, everyone thought that she would not survive, but she unexpectedly survived."

Sheng Qingyuan asked, "Did you survive like an ordinary person?"

King Heng shook his head, "Naturally not, although she survived, she also suffered a lot, and she had to take medicine constantly to urinate."

"Haven't you ever had an ice lotus after that?" Sheng Qingyuan asked again.

"I found the Ice Lotus when she was four years old, but the prince and princess who didn't have the Ice Lotus before couldn't live for half a year, but she could live to the age of four, so my father wanted to see if she could live forever without the Ice Lotus, the toxicity of the Ice Lotus was really too great." King Heng said.

"And then?" Sheng Qingyuan continued to ask curiously.

"Later, she lived until she was twenty-two, married, and lived happily with her colt for a few years, until when she gave birth to a child, she died of blood and the child could not be saved." When King Heng talked about this, his eyes were dark, and his mood was obviously a little lower.

"The eldest princess is alone, can she survive without relying on the ice lotus?" Sheng Qingyuan asked.

King Heng looked at Sheng Qingyuan, his eyes were a little hesitant, but then he nodded, "It is true that only the eldest sister survived

。 At that time, he saw that the eldest sister could survive without relying on the ice lotus, so the father wondered if it was possible for other children to live."

At this point, King Heng's eyes were a little more sad, and he said, "It's a pity, it's true that only the eldest sister, the second sister and the third sister in the back, and the third brother all died because they didn't take the ice lotus in time, and since then, my father has not dared to try it again."

It's sad.

Listening to what King Heng said, Sheng Qingyuan felt a lot in his heart.

In the eyes of outsiders, it is a royal family with infinite scenery, but it has endured many pains that outsiders can't see.

Sheng Qingyuan didn't know why, and felt that his mood fluctuated a little.

After taking a deep breath and calming down for a while, he asked, "What would happen to my body if I didn't take Ice Lotus?"

King Heng said, "It will be easier to feel tired than ordinary people, and the body will be much colder than ordinary people, and when the situation is serious, it will be so cold that the bones of the whole body will ache, even in the scorching heat, it will be like being in the cold winter of December." Look at the book

"Cold poison?" Sheng Qingyuan asked.

The situation of Cold Poison is somewhat similar to this one.

King Heng said, "There is a little similarity, but it is different. If you don't take Ice Lotus in time, it will be easy to forget things in the future. In the last two years of the eldest sister, except for the colt who accompanied her day and night, the rest of the people had forgotten who it was."

It's also a very torturous thing.

Sheng Qingyuan asked some Heng Wang about the original poison, and after listening, Sheng Qingyuan's face couldn't help but turn pale.

"Princess Jing, what's wrong with you? Are you alright?" King Heng looked at Sheng Qingyuan, whose face was not good, and asked her.

Shen Zhao also looked at her worriedly.

Sheng Qingyuan raised a smile, shook his head and said, "I'm fine, I just think this poison is too torturous."

King Heng said bitterly: "Indeed, but fortunately, the ancestors found the Ice Lotus, with the Ice Lotus, although the life is relatively short, but at least they can live like a normal person, and after taking the Ice Lotus, Yu Wen and Wu will do better than ordinary people, which can be regarded as a little comfort."

It's just that this does cost lives.

"I see, I may have a little direction, if I can, I want to see the medical file of the eldest princess back then." Sheng Qingyuan pleaded with King Heng.

"I'll have someone find it for you." King Heng agreed without hesitation.

"Thank you." Sheng Qingyuan said to King Heng.

King Heng said, "If you can cure the imperial brother, then it should be Yanbei who will thank you."

Sheng Qingyuan smiled lightly and did not speak again.

"Then you are busy first, I won't bother you, if you have any needs, just say, if anyone wants to disturb you, let people inform me, or inform General Ye Lin." King Heng said.

"Okay."

Not long after King Heng left, the medical file left by the eldest princess was delivered.

Looking at the changes in the eldest princess's condition, Sheng Qingyuan became more and more frightened the more she looked at it.

Her condition......

"What's wrong?" Shen Zhao looked at Sheng Qingyuan's appearance and asked worriedly.

Holding her hand, I found that her hand was exceptionally cold.
