Chapter 229 Father, Your Majesty, I Request You to Abdicate 44
Bai Can? Mutated Rose? The time has come.
The imperial doctors in Wuyou Palace had been waiting there for a long time. Seeing Emperor Cheng'an lying there, they were afraid that someone else would take away the credit, so they rushed forward. But then they all looked embarrassed and left one after another.
"I am incompetent." The imperial doctors looked ashen. The moment they knelt on the ground, they thought that if the emperor could not wake up, the imperial hospital might be buried with him.
Soon, the palace was filled with imperial doctors kneeling. Zhu Yuanzhi, who had hurried over, muttered to herself, "Your Majesty has always been cunning, is he pretending? Or is there some purpose?"
But when she came to the bed and saw Emperor Cheng'an wearing the black Xuanniao imperial robe, his face pale and no longer as high-spirited as before he set out, tears fell involuntarily.
"Mother, the Imperial Hospital is full of talented people, and father will be safe." Jing Xing's eyes were complicated, and his thoughts drifted further. If his father really left, could he calm down the ministers of the previous dynasty?
His hands trembled slightly behind his back as he looked at Jiuli who was sitting silently on the side. From this angle, she looked more and more like her father, and also held a very high position in the army.
"Eryao, inform the six palaces to go to the Temple of Heaven to pray for His Majesty." Zhu Yuanzhi's eyes swept across Jiuli, revealing obvious complexity. His Majesty's idea was probably in vain.
"Brother, stabilize the front dynasty, father is fine." Jiuli raised his eyes, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, this is the final contest!
"Take good care of father." Jing Xing walked out of the palace with somewhat unsteady steps, and from behind he looked like someone who was fleeing in a panic.
"Your Highness." Following the voice, Chuyiwu, who had rushed back from outside, appeared in front of Jiuli and half-knelt on the ground respectfully.
"How did Bai Can enter the general's tent? Go and investigate on the first day of the first lunar month. Force him to tell you the royal antidote. If he doesn't tell you, kill him! Act in secret." Jiuli's fingertips gently turned the jade ring on her waist, "As for the fifteenth, go to Huangfu's ancestral land and record all matters and report them to this palace."
"Yes." Chuyi and Shiwu looked at each other, received the order and left, as if no one had been there, it was just an illusion.
"Meiruo, guard Wuyou Palace well." Jiuli continued.
"Don't worry, Your Highness." Meiruo stood up with a serious expression.
In the palace of Prince Jing, the teacup in Prince Jing's hand fell to the ground, but he did not react. Your Majesty has always been cunning, could it be that he is using himself as bait in this game? What is the intention of this move? Prince Jing did not believe that His Majesty, who was as cunning as a fox, would be poisoned.
"It's impossible to enter the palace at this time." King Jing glanced at Mu Huasui, who was fidgeting, and wondered in his heart, what kind of magic potion did his niece give him? Why was she so impatient?
"It's an important matter in the palace. The imperial city is under martial law. Even for me to enter the palace, it takes a lot of trouble, let alone bringing people in? Are you tired of living and want to be shot into a sieve?!"
"I have no intention of entering the palace." Could it be that King Jing could read minds? Otherwise, how could he know his thoughts?
"Your thoughts are all revealed on your face." King Jing looked helpless. Isn't Mu Huasui like this usually?
"Please pass this item to His Highness." Mu Huasui took a deep breath, touched his cheek, and muttered to himself, it looks pretty good.
"What is this?" King Jing asked subconsciously as he took the small box. His eyes were sharp, and he secretly wondered, this guy shouldn't be willing to murder His Majesty, right? Especially during this troubled time.
"The last pill of the medicine that can cure all poisons in the world is here. It is useless to me." Mu Huasui said firmly.
"Are you trying to kill yourself? Bringing medicinal herbs and pills into the palace is fine if nothing goes wrong, but if something goes wrong you will only die!" King Jing was immediately furious. Isn't this courting death?
"I've eaten," Mu Huasui looked at King Jing dimly. Although he didn't know what happened in the palace, the fact that the imperial city was under martial law must be no trivial matter, not to mention other things!
"Hmph, I will pass it on for you, but whether Lin'an will use it or not is another matter." This kid has quite a lot of power under his command, how can I allow him to sleep soundly beside my bed? ! King Jing hid the strangeness in his eyes and still acted intimately on the surface.
"Thank you, Your Highness. I will take my leave now." Mu Huasui's eyes were full of gratitude, and then he left happily.
The moment the door closed, the intimacy on King Jing's face disappeared, replaced by a cold expression. He pulled the jade ring casually, and then tapped it twice.
"Your Highness." Two figures appeared in response. Their voices were hoarse, their faces were hidden in the darkness, and they looked ordinary and useless.
"Investigate the Mu family thoroughly, no matter the cost!" Anyone who dares to offend the Qin Dynasty must be killed without mercy, even his right-hand men are no exception. If they have a clean bottom, that's a different matter.
"Yes." The two men disappeared in an instant and left.
King Jing looked at the small box in his hand and gritted his teeth secretly. This matter was of great importance and it was difficult for him to make an accurate judgment.
The Imperial Medical Bureau is full of talented people. Although they cannot be sure whether the poison can be detoxified, they can always test whether it is poisonous.
He carried the small box and hurried to Wuyou Palace.
In front of the main hall of Wuyou Palace, a group of imperial doctors braved the cold wind, some reading their ancestral medical books, and some discussing in groups of three or five. They firmly believed that all things in the world are interdependent and there must be a way to control the Baican poison, and they did not notice the arrival of King Jing at all.
"Who gave this to Uncle King Jing?" Jiuli sat on the couch by the window, playing with the exquisite little box with an unclear expression.
"Mu Huasui." Prince Jing took a sip of tea, glanced at Emperor Cheng'an who was lying there and looked thinner, sighed in his heart, and brushed his brush against Emperor Cheng'an's face inadvertently before sitting down.
"Meiruo, hand this box over to the Imperial Hospital for poison testing." Jiuli casually tossed the small box to Meiruo, then looked at King Jing and said, "My uncle is very busy, but he was thoughtful."
"My brother's affairs are all state affairs, no matter how big or small, I will do my best." King Jing smiled slightly, giving a signal, "If there is anything in Lin'an, you can send someone to find me."
"Lin'an will naturally do that." Jiuli nodded.
The two looked at each other and seemed to have reached some kind of agreement. After paying respect to Emperor Cheng'an, King Jing withdrew respectfully.
Outside the palace, the imperial doctors gathered together, carefully observing the pills in the small box, and each of them used their own methods to test the poison. King Jing strode away without staying for too long.
He silently looked at his hands, which were exceptionally clean, without even a trace of makeup. King Jing was secretly surprised. Did his brother really mean it this time? Who did this? He had all the connections?
Looking back at the city gate, he shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself, the crown prince ascending the throne, the weak ruler and strong ministers, is not a blessing for the Qin Dynasty. A king who values love is superfluous to the Qin Dynasty.
After discussing for a long time outside, the imperial physician pushed an old imperial physician with a white beard into the palace to report. His Highness would not be angry with the old man, would he? Then their lives would be saved!
"Your Highness, this is non-toxic and can be taken by Your Majesty."
"Well, how long will it take before I wake up?" He took the box. Is this really the same pill? He's lost a lot of weight?!
"Seven days. If he doesn't wake up within seven days, his life might be in danger." The old doctor pondered for a moment, then spoke slowly.
"Su Qin, give father the medicine. Seven days will be enough." After two quarters of an hour, Jiuli looked embarrassed as she held the pill.
"Here." Su Qin fed Emperor Cheng'an carefully.
They were extremely looking forward to His Majesty waking up. For a moment, all eyes of the court and the harem were focused on Wuyou Palace. Outside the palace, Meng An was guarding a group of military officers, but as the days passed, if they were not afraid of His Majesty's reputation, they would have been unable to suppress their power.
