The rebirth of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 402 Toxic
When the last three words came out, Situ Rui's tone was slightly sullen, and he threw the folder in his hand to the ground.

The ministers hurriedly knelt on the ground and said in fear: "The emperor calm down."

Situ Rui said angrily: "Calm down, how can I calm down? The Eastern Zhou Dynasty stared at Xiling, and the army suppressed it; but at this critical juncture, as a subject of Xiling, he actually intended to rebel and wanted to bring Xiling into internal and external troubles. There is no reason for this!"

Seeing that the emperor was furious, all the ministers bowed their heads and dared not speak.

Only Shen Qichang spoke slowly after a long time, "Your Majesty, Mei Fengqi is the confidant of the King of Lingzhou, and he has always been loyal to the King of Lingzhou and the court. He will never rebel." It seemed that he was trying to excuse Mei Fengqi, but it was a hidden needle.

"Hmph, it's precisely because he is the confidant of the king of Lingzhou, and he is loyal to the king of Lingzhou first, and then to the court. He really is a good subject of Xiling!" Situ Rui snorted coldly, his tone dark.

None of the officials kneeling on the ground spoke.

The veterans are very clear about the grievances between the emperor and King Lingzhou.They all knew that their narrow-minded emperor had always been jealous of his younger brother, the eleventh prince who was once famous in Beijing, and now the King of Lingzhou.What happened today, it is said that Lingzhou King's subordinates have the intention of treason, but the emperor really wants to deal with it, how could it be a little Mei Fengqi?
"Mei Fengqi used the excuse that I detained the King of Lingzhou in the capital, intending to send troops to the capital to rescue the lord, he is indeed a good subordinate who is loyal to the lord." Situ Rui said with a smile that was not a smile, his face was frighteningly cold.

At this time, Shen Qichang pretended to defend Situ Yan again, saying: "Your Majesty, the king of Lingzhou is currently recuperating in the capital, and his life and death are unknown. At this time, he should have nothing to do with the king of Lingzhou."

Yuan Hong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, then said: "The king of Lingzhou has been recuperating in the capital for a year. It is really inappropriate not to return to the fief for a long time. Let's not talk about what the people in the fief of Lingzhou think, just talk about the people in the world. If you don’t know, you will think that the emperor is jealous of the king of Lingzhou who has made great achievements and killed his brothers.”

It can be said that adding oil and vinegar to add fuel to the fire.

Situ Rui was not surprised: "Bold!".

Yuan Hong hastily leaned over to plead guilty: "The emperor forgives the sin, it is the minister who made a mistake, the emperor forgives the sin..."

Situ Rui stopped talking, and the whole hall fell into a dead silence, and the civil and military officials kneeling below did not dare to show any air.

After being silent for a long time, Situ Rui said with a gloomy face, "What Yuan Qing said is not unreasonable. As a vassal king, it is really unfair for the King of Lingzhou to stay in Beijing for a long time. Pass on my will, Lingzhou The King of Zhou has been injured for a long time, and he is temporarily unable to lead the affairs of Lingzhou. Uncle Yu Wang happens to be in Yingdu, so he asked Prince Yu to take care of the affairs of Lingzhou temporarily. Lingzhou Palace, until the injury is healed."

After saying a word, it was like throwing a stone into the calm water, causing ripples. Although the officials did not dare to speak loudly, they all discussed in a low voice below: Isn't the emperor's move a bright promotion and a dark demote.

Although the king of Lingzhou apparently got the title of a prince, the emperor deprived him of the right to control the fiefdom of Lingzhou. Now the king of Lingzhou, who is recuperating in the capital, is tantamount to being placed under house arrest in disguise.

"I have already sent imperial envoys to Lingzhou to investigate Mei Fengqi's conspiracy. If it was just a rumor, I would naturally not wrong my good minister. Do you have any objections to my decision?" Situ Rui asked slowly.

The emperor must have thought about cutting power a long time ago. Since he has sent imperial envoys to Lingzhou, it must have been planned a long time ago. What objections can they have?
Under the leadership of Shen Qichang and Yuan Hong, all the officials kowtowed and said: "The emperor is wise."

Situ Rui looked at the worshiping officials below, feeling proud.Situ Yan, your life and death are still in my hands, I will not give you a chance, never!
Since Situ Yan and Qin Wange mentioned it last time, villagers in the villages near Longshouyuan have always disappeared for unknown reasons, and soldiers have also disappeared. The song asked again and again.

"Is there any new news from Dongzhou?" She didn't know how many times she asked in the past few days.

Without the slightest impatience, Rumeng replied seriously: "There is much less news about Eastern Zhou now, presumably the battle between Xuanyuanlie and Xuanyuanyu has reached the most critical juncture."

Qin Wange's brows were tightly frowned, and Rumeng said again: "The lord asked the servant to tell the empress to relax. Although the situation in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was tense, Xuanyuan Lie was not a vegetarian. With him around, Xuanyuanyu couldn't get rid of it." What a storm."

Qin Wange said one day: "I'm not worried that Xuanyuan Lie won't be able to suppress his brother. What I'm worried about is that I don't know what Harry has done. The villagers and soldiers near Longshouyuan are missing. Knowing whether it is related to him, I can't rest assured if I don't go and see for myself."

Before Qin Wange asked to go to Yongzhou in person, Situ Yan naturally refused without hesitation.The situation in Yongzhou was out of control, and he would never let Qin Wange take this risk.

Qin Wange couldn't hold him back, so he had to give up for the time being.

"Imperial Concubine, our mother is not well--" There was a weeping sound of grooming from outside, Qin Wange stood up, and she was startled when she saw the door was knocked open, but it wasn't someone else who came in. It's Liu Ruxin's personal maid, Shen'er.

Adai quickly helped Shen'er up, and asked: "What happened to Concubine Yun Gui, please speak slowly, don't worry."

Shen'er was not out of breath, and hurriedly said: "My mother suddenly said that she was not feeling well this morning, and she vomited a lot of blood. The imperial doctors from the imperial hospital all came. After seeing it, the imperial doctor Wei only said that my mother was poisoned. He couldn't do anything, he asked his servants to invite the imperial concubine to have a look."

Before Shen'er finished speaking, Qin Wange had already rushed out like a gust of wind, and Adai hurriedly brought Qin Wange's usual bottles and cans, and chased Qin Wange to Hanxiang Palace.

At this time, Hanxiang Palace was in a panic, seeing that it was Qin Wange who came in, everyone gave way one after another.Everyone looked flustered and terrified. Even Wei Qing was sweating profusely. Qin Wange asked, "What's the matter with Concubine Yun Gui?"

Wei Qing said: "Concubine Yun Gui is clearly poisoned by a strong poison called withered soul from the Nile Kingdom. The minister is incompetent and can only suppress the poison with medicine, but it can't be solved. If it continues, Concubine Yun Gui may not be able to deal with it." it is good."

Qin Wange only asked about the symptoms, and hurried to the bed.

However, Liu Ruxin's face was as pale as paper, with a layer of jet black on it. As Wei Qing said, Liu Ruxin's face was already dead, and if she dragged on, she would surely be hopeless.

Qin Wange caught Liu Ruxin's pulse, opened his eyelids and looked, with a solemn expression.

At this time, Situ Rui and Xu Qiushui heard the news and hurried over. Situ Rui asked anxiously, "How is Concubine Yun Gui?"

The anxious look on Situ Rui's face was not fake.Firstly, Liu's family is from the Xiling family; secondly, Liu Chenyue is now working hard for him at the border. If something happens to Liu Ruxin at this time, he will not be able to explain it to the Liu family.

Wei Qing repeated what he said just now, and said: "The poison in the empress should be a poison called dry soul, but I have only seen similar symptoms in medical books, but I have never seen it before. Products produced in the southern border. I don’t know that the imperial concubine was born in the southern border, is there a way?"

Qin Wange has checked Liu Ruxin's symptoms, and seeing Situ Rui's questioning gaze, she said solemnly: "The poison in Concubine Yun should be the poison called dry soul. I saw it with my own eyes many years ago. I have seen a person who was poisoned, and the symptoms were exactly the same as Concubine Yun Gui. This poison is fierce and life-threatening."

Situ Rui drew his eyebrows together, and Qin Wange said: "Although the poison of the withered soul is very strong, there is still a way to cure it."

After Qin Wange finished speaking, everyone subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.However, before he breathed out, Wei Qing said again: "But... Apart from the poison of the withered soul, Concubine Yun seems to have been poisoned by another chronic poison."

Qin Wange followed his words and said, "The detoxification process of the withered soul is very overbearing, and Ruxin's body is too weak to bear it. It is very likely that in the end, although the poison is removed, Ruxin will die due to exhaustion."

One sentence brought everyone's hope of promotion back to the bottom.

"Is there no other way?" Xu Qiushui asked, but the look of grief on her face looked very artificial.

"Yes, unless someone can use the twelve soul-snatching needles to strengthen the vitality of Concubine Yun Gui. Only by protecting the vitality of Concubine Yun Gui's heart can a ray of life be preserved." Wei Qing said, his face became more serious and ugly.

"Then use it quickly. No matter what, Concubine Yun Gui must be fine." Situ Rui said.

Sweat was dripping from the foreheads of the imperial doctors in the Imperial Hospital, and one of the oldest imperial physicians said: "The twelve soul-snatching needles are the most advanced acupuncture techniques in doctors, and ordinary people can't learn them. Only practiced the fifth stitch of the twelve stitches..."

While speaking, he cast his eyes on Wei Qing.

Wei Qing is recognized as a genius in the imperial hospital, so he is naturally expected by everyone.It's a pity that this time Wei Qing received the gazes from those people, so he could only smile wryly, and said: "Wei Chen only practiced the eighth of the twelve stitches... In the world today, only the genius doctor Mu Qingmu has practiced the tenth stitch." Two injections. Only the genius doctor Mu can save Concubine Yun."

Hearing Wei Qing say this, Xu Qiushui looked complacent, and the corner of his mouth curled into a triumphant smile.

That smile just fell into Qin Wange's eyes.Qin Wange suddenly realized, and looked at Xu Qiushui with bitter coldness in his eyes: Xu Qiushui definitely did it on purpose!Today's events are all arranged and planned by her, in order to draw out Mu Qing, or to pull out the relationship between Mu Qing and her.
