Great Lawyer

Chapter 740 Unconscious ([-])

"Come on!" The Empress Dowager shouted as she collapsed and was supported by Nanny Qian, "Let's find a place to settle down first, and call the imperial physician."

Du Jiuyan looked at King Gui's pale face, and heaved a long sigh of relief, "Maybe he was fainted by the smoke."

An inner guard came up and lifted King Gui to the outer courtyard.

The surrounding voices recovered bit by bit, Du Jiuyan slowly regained consciousness, she turned to look at the cripple, only to find that his left hand was scalded and the skin was torn, she said: "Are you injured?"

"It's okay." The cripple spread it out for her to see, and handed her a handkerchief, "Just wrap it up for me."

The skin of the palm of his left hand was scalded and shriveled, exposing the scarlet flesh, her eyes turned red immediately, and she said: "The imperial doctor will be here soon, let them apply the medicine and bandage you."

"Then wait a while." The lame man put his hands behind his back, "don't worry."

Du Jiuyan wanted to say something else, Mrs. Qin woke up from a faint, and screamed again, "Why didn't you save people, the house collapsed?"

"Where is the King of Jiujiang?"

"I'm asking you something." Madam Qin grabbed the inner guard and slapped no matter who it was, "Help me, let me in."

The inner guard lowered his head and replied: "There is no... there is no one. We searched back and forth several times, and there must be no one."

According to the servant of the palace, only King Jiujiang and King Gui are in the main courtyard.

They didn't even keep anyone serving them, so until now, they don't know why the fire broke out, and why the two princes didn't come out.

"Fart!" Mrs. Qin said, "The King of Jiujiang hasn't come out yet."

"King Gui has come out, but King Jiujiang hasn't come out yet, you are all blind, aren't you?"

"Did you do it on purpose? King Gui is a prince, and King Jiujiang is also a prince!"

"Your Majesty," Mrs. Qin looked at Zhao Yu, "I told you to go in and save people. You can't be so biased. Once you save King Gui, you don't care about King Jiujiang."

"They are all your younger brothers, you can't treat one more favorably than another."

Zhao Yu's face was as heavy as water. He stared at the charred corpse on the ground and said in a deep voice, "Mrs. Tai, there is no one inside."

"Impossible!" Mrs. Qin jumped up, pointed at Zhao Yu and said, "Impossible. You are too biased."

She was halfway through, and An Guogong said angrily: "Shut up, the Holy Majesty has already said that there is no one inside."

"Go invite Wu Zuo." An Guogong and the people around him said.

Mrs. Qin couldn't believe it, she looked down at the charred corpse, she couldn't tell who it was, her eyes, nose and mouth were gone, she squatted down suddenly, grabbed the corpse to look at his left hand.

"The fingers are all burnt." An Guogong went to support her, "there are only the two of them in the room, King Gui came out, then..."

"You want to open it up." An Guogong said in a sad tone.

Mrs. Qin Tai grabbed the corpse's hand, turned to An Guogong, and asked with a straight tone like a steel knife: "What did you say, can you say it again?"

"Calm down." An Guogong grabbed her hand and said, "We'll talk about it when Wu Zuo comes."

Mrs. Qin Tai said: "The King of Jiujiang is dead!"

"he died!"

"How can I be calm?!" Mrs. Qin shouted, "He is Ji Rong's child, he is Changqing, he is Ji Rong's child!"

An Guogong nodded, embraced his own sister, nodded and said: "I know, he is Rongrong's child, we watched him grow up, like a treasure in the palm of Changqing who grew up doting on him."

"Brother!" Madam Qin burst into tears, "How could he die, it's impossible."

Du Jiuyan didn't go to see King Gui.The Queen Mother is taking care of King Gui, she is very relieved.

She wanted to know if this corpse belonged to King Jiujiang.

Pei Ying hurried in, behind her was Diao Da.

An Guogong helped Mrs. Qin Tai aside, and Diao Da and Pei Ying performed an autopsy.

After a while, Diao Dao said: "The deceased was burned to death. Because the whole body was burned too deeply, there is no way to tell who it is."

He said, standing aside.

"If you can't tell, that means you're not the King of Jiujiang?" Ji Xianan asked.

Diao Da cupped his hands and said, "Master Hou made atonement, the villain can't easily make a conclusion."

Ji Xianan turned her head away and wiped her tears with her sleeve.

"Changqing!" Mrs. Qin cried loudly while leaning on An Guogong's arms, she didn't lift her breath up, her head tilted and she passed out again.

An Guogong called his wife beside her, and ordered in a low voice: "Take your wife to the outer courtyard first and find a room to rest."

Mrs. Qin Tai was taken out.

Ji Xianan was crying on the side.

Zhao Yu half knelt beside the corpse, his face turned pale and he wanted to touch it, but he took it back tremblingly, and shouted in a low voice, "Third!"

"My Majesty's condolences," An Guogong sighed, "At this moment, we need to find out how the fire started and why neither of the two princes came out."

Zhao Yu was reminded by An Guogong, his face straightened, and said: "Guo Gong is right, I must find out exactly how this fire started."

He turned his head to look at Du Jiuyan, and said, "Jiuyan, do you have the confidence to investigate this matter?"

"Now that I can do this, the only person I can trust is you."

Du Jiuyan cupped his hands and said, "Students do their best!"

"Okay, okay!" Zhao Yu said, "I'm waiting for your news."

Du Jiuyan also had a stone in her heart, the two rings were still in her arms, she had not had time to question King Jiujiang, she still had many questions to confront him.

Unexpectedly, what was waiting was a corpse that could not speak.

"I'm going to see Prince Gui." Du Jiuyan ordered the inner guard, "Let someone guard the surroundings first, and no one should come near."

One of the main courtyards was burnt out, and the courtyards on both sides were not close together, so the fire here had already been reduced, but it would take two or three days to completely extinguish it.

She is not in a hurry to investigate, because as long as King Gui wakes up, everything will be clear.

She helped the lame man to the inner courtyard, Zhao Yu and An Guogong also came along, and Ji Xianan stayed where he was, dealing with the King of Jiujiang's affairs.

Since he is the king of Jiujiang, he must start to deal with his funeral.

Die unexpectedly, where to stop, how to deal with the funeral, no matter how sad you are, you have to think about it now.

When she arrived at the outer courtyard, the imperial physicians were already there. As soon as she entered the door, she heard the imperial physician say: "My lord is poisoned."

"Poisoned?" The Queen Mother asked sharply, "What kind of poison is it?"

Du Jiuyan's footsteps also paused, and he walked to the bed in two or three steps, followed by Zhao Yu and An Guogong.

"How did you get poisoned?" Zhao Yu asked with a trembling voice.

"It's a common drug." The imperial physician said, "The drug may have been drunk in wine. The effect of this drug is about two hours, and the person will wake up when the time is up."

Everyone looked at each other, An Guogong said: "Could it be that the two princes did not come out after the fire, because they were drugged?"

He woke everyone up with one word.

Du Jiuyan also turned to look at An Guogong, frowning.What An Guogong said was not wrong. The only explanation for the two people not coming out after the fire was drugged.

"Someone drugged them and set fire to them, intending to burn them to death?" Zhao Yu couldn't believe it, "Long Lang Qiankun, in the capital city, in the palace, someone dared to poison the two princes and set fire to them?"

"It's unreasonable." Zhao Yu punched the table beside him, and shouted, "It's so disgusting."

"The emperor is so useless that he can't even protect his younger brother."

He said, holding his head and sitting down in frustration, his face full of pain.

"Looking at the situation, how long will it take to wake up?" Du Jiuyan asked.

The imperial doctor replied: "In an hour, if the prince wakes up, everything will be fine, if not..."

"It's hard to say."

"After all, the fire was too big, and so much smoke was inhaled. In that case, people would suffocate to death." The imperial physician said.

Du Jiuyan nodded, pointed to the lame man's hand, and said, "Then please help him treat the wound first."

"Yes." The imperial doctor also exclaimed when he saw the lame man's hand, and helped him to sit on the side to give him the medicine.

The queen mother glanced at the lame man, then looked back at him from the side, frowning slightly.She had met the cripple before, but because the other party seldom spoke and was easily ignored, this was the first time she saw the cripple's appearance clearly today.

She looked at it several times, then sat down on King Gui's bedside thoughtfully.

The room became quiet, and the imperial physician whispered, "This medicine hurts a bit, please bear with it."

"It's okay," said the lame man.

The imperial doctor applied the medicine, but the lame man didn't make a sound, and went out after he was bandaged.

The imperial doctor gave him a surprised look, packed up the medicine box, and waited beside the bed with everyone.

Next door, Madam Qin began to cry, Duke An couldn't sit still, and said worriedly: "Old minister, go to the next door to have a look." Saying this, he sighed and went to the next door.

Du Jiuyan sat on the edge of the bed, holding King Gui's hand, his eyes fixed.

She has been confused, there are too many questions about this fire.

Since King Gui came to Jiujiang Palace, he must be on guard. With his shrewdness, it is impossible for him to drink wine mixed with drugs without guarding against it.

Also, who set the fire?

King Gui?

King of Jiujiang?
or someone else?

What is the purpose of this fire?Did the King of Jiujiang pull King Gui to die together, or did King Gui die with King Jiujiang because of his anger and sorrow, or was someone else planning to kill the last two together?
She held King Gui's hand tightly, and said in her heart: "You have to wake up, I have a lot of questions, and I need you to answer them."

"If something happens to you too... what should I do?"

Du Jiuyan was suddenly confused.She has always been able to clearly control her life. She knows what she wants and what she can and cannot do next.

But now, as long as she thinks that King Gui has disappeared, her future suddenly becomes blank.

Once upon a time, the weight of King Gui in her heart, and her love for him, had far exceeded her own estimation.

"Wake up." Du Jiuyan touched his face, "I haven't seen you in 46 days, don't you miss me?"

Physically and psychologically, are there no needs?

From noon to afternoon, from afternoon to evening.

The queen mother asked: "Didn't you say one hour? It has been two hours, why haven't you woke up?"

More than a dozen imperial doctors from the imperial hospital knelt down, and the hospital replied, "My lord...he may have been severely smoked. He hasn't woken up yet, so it's very likely that it has nothing to do with the medicine."

"What does that have to do with anything?" Zhao Yu asked.

The courtyard replied: "We can't be sure if we go back to the Holy One, we can only give the prince acupuncture and medicine to try."

"Others, we can only wait."

They have never seen such a situation.No matter what drug it is, after such a long time, the effect of the drug will definitely wear off.

But why Prince Gui didn't wake up, they couldn't tell.

"What kind of medicine to take, how to do acupuncture?" Zhao Yu asked, "After doing these things, he will be able to wake up, right?"

Court is shaking his head.

　Don't dare to leave a digression, dare not reply to the message, hahahahaha!I'm going to put my head down and work on it and just focus on the finale.
