Chapter 291 The Antidote
When Tong Ange came out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the sun was already in the west, and the dim sunlight shone on her body. It wasn't dazzling, but she couldn't feel the slightest warmth either.

She turned her head and looked at the huge palace, feeling a little numb in her heart at this moment.

The words of the emperor echoed in my ears:
"I kill people, do you think I need a reason?"

It's her, why did she forget, this is ancient times, a dynasty of feudal monarchy, everything here is decided by the high-ranking person in power, he makes laws to protect his own rights and enforce laws , in order to protect his own rights and interests, he is the king standing at the top of the food chain, and the law is just a tool for him to rule this society.

In his eyes, in his heart, what could compare to the throne behind him?
"Ange, are you alright?"

When Su Yu's voice came, Tong Ange turned his head and saw Su Yu was waiting for her outside the palace gate of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Seeing her coming out, he immediately stepped forward, with a deep worry on his face.

The moment Tong Ange saw Su Yu's long face, Tong Ange's heart trembled, a smile appeared on his face, and he shook his head at Su Yu: "It's okay."

Now that you have made a sacrifice, you have to be worthy of your own sacrifice and make your sacrifice worthwhile, otherwise wouldn't it be in vain?
Seeing the expression on Tong Ange's face, Su Yu frowned, and the worry on his face did not recede: "What did the emperor tell you?" Su Yu knew the emperor's character very well, and the emperor would definitely not let such a thing happen. He easily spared Tong Ange.

Seeing his worried eyes, Tong Ange's heart warmed, and the smile on his face became even brighter: "It's just a warning, let me restrain myself in the future, don't think that relying on you and Princess Jinyang Support me and do whatever you want, other than these, what else can I do?"

She said with a smile, raising her eyebrows, her face became a little more serious, and she looked at Su Yu: "But seriously, do you also think that I am too arrogant in normal times?"

Seeing Tong Ange's suddenly serious face, Su Yu thought she was going to say something, but when she heard what she asked, a smile flashed in Su Yu's eyes, she stretched out her hand and held Tong Ange's hand, and the voice that she spoke brought A little pampered: "No, with this king, even if the princess walks sideways, it should be."

"Okay, you are still walking sideways, am I a crab?" Tong Ange laughed.

"The princess is so arrogant on weekdays, isn't it a crab?"

"you……"

The laughter of the two gradually faded away, and under the setting sun, the shadows of the two of them were stretched very long, but they were very close together, like a pair of lovers.

As they walked further and further away, there was a figure in the palace road behind them.

Lian Yu looked at the backs of the two of them, and the laughter of the people who came just now had already reached his ears. He thought that the poison that the emperor asked to feed Tong Ange just now in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, his eyes flickered Shan, it turns out that she is really so stupid that she doesn't intend to tell Su Yu the news of her poisoning?
Thinking of this, Lian Yu's eyes narrowed, he was really curious, Tong Ange, will he obediently wait until the poison occurs and die by himself?

*
The emperor handed over the affairs of Qiao's family to Su Yu, because Su Yu had already collected enough evidence beforehand, and soon, all of Qiao Shuwang's criminal evidence was exposed.

At the beginning, Qiao Shuwang refused to plead guilty, but in the end, with all kinds of ironclad evidence in front of him, Qiao Shuwang's old face was like stagnant water, and he couldn't make any waves.

The well-known prime minister's mansion in the capital was also sealed up in an instant, and all members of the Qiao family were locked up and sent to prison. The evidence of the crime was verified, and they were only waiting for the emperor's judgment.

In the past two days, almost everything in the capital exploded. No one thought that the Qiao family would fall from the high clouds overnight and become nothing. The concubine Qiao Shu, who was the favorite of the Sixth Palace in the palace, was also deprived of it. She took the title of concubine Shu and demoted the cold palace.

This kind of news came too suddenly. All of a sudden, people were talking about what happened to the Qiao family, what kind of mistakes Qiao Shufei had made in the palace, and she would be relegated to the cold palace.

Tong Ange sat in the restaurant, ate peanuts, listened to people's discussions, and raised his eyebrows. As expected, the emperor ordered to suppress the secret of the identity of the third prince. After all, this is a secret in the palace. If it is true If it spreads, I'm afraid it will be ridiculed by the people of the world.

How could this kind of thing be allowed to spread when it was about the face of the royal family?
"Princess, Tong Boyan hasn't found the news that the servants got." Qing Li came in from outside the box and said respectfully to Tong Ange.

Hearing this, Tong Ange nodded, but couldn't help frowning: "We must find out Tong Boyan's whereabouts." Although Tong Boyan's surname is Tong, he still has the blood of the Qiao family on his body. With him locked up, Tong Ange always felt that he was not at ease.

Furthermore, Tong Boyan had been staying in Qiao's mansion before, but after the incident, he and Princess Yong'an disappeared together. No one from the Qiao family even told them about their whereabouts even though they were tortured.

Tong Ange felt that this was not a good sign.

"Don't worry, the princess, the prince has already ordered this matter, and the slaves will investigate carefully. The prince has also sent someone to find out Tong Boyan's whereabouts."

"Yeah." Tong Ange nodded, and turned his gaze into the distance.

It has been seven days since she came out of the palace, and the news of her poisoning has not been told to anyone except the old man Yaowang.

Originally, she thought that the poison on her body could be detoxified silently with the help of the medicine king, but she did not expect that this poison was also very troublesome in the eyes of the medicine king.

After Yao Wang took her pulse, the little old man who had never changed color before Taishan also turned serious at that moment.

"Old man, is there no way to cure the poison on my body?" Seeing the serious expression on the old man's face, Tong Ange asked aloud.

The little old man squinted his eyes and glanced at her, then shook his head: "This poison, ordinary imperial physicians can't diagnose it at all, just like the emperor's old man said, even if the poison occurs at that time, the doctor will diagnose it in your body." There is no way to diagnose poisoning." He said, his voice was a little deep.

"What kind of poison is this?" Tong Ange didn't understand. From the standpoint of a forensic doctor, any contact will leave traces. Once a person is poisoned and dies, there will definitely be traces of poisoning left on the body. Why can't it be detected? ?
After the human body is poisoned, various organs will fail. Chinese medicine diagnosis can tell whether it is poisoning or illness, but listening to the little old man...

"This kind of poisonous weed does not grow in Qi State, but a unique poisonous weed in Zhou State. I have heard of it before, the old man, and I have seen it in medical books, but I have never seen the real thing. down on you."

Tong Ange listened, and couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Since it's a poisonous weed of the Zhou Kingdom, why would our emperor of Daqi have such a poison?"

The little old man squinted his eyes, and there was a bit of worry in his voice: "This is not the most important issue right now, we have to find a way to detoxify you first, otherwise..." He didn't finish speaking, But at this moment, who doesn't understand, if he doesn't detoxify, who knows when Tong Ange won't wake up.

"Old man, please don't tell anyone else about this matter, only the two of us know." Tong Ange looked at the little old man, speaking sincerely.

Hearing her words, the little old man couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "Aren't you and that kid very sticky? Wouldn't it be faster to tell him to let him find an antidote for you?"

Tong Ange's eyes flickered, but she thought, but if Su Yu knew...

There must be an eyeliner sent by the emperor in Prince Su's mansion. Although she still doesn't know who that person is, the emperor can grasp Su Yu, and it can be deduced from this.

"Old man, just treat it as a secret between the two of us."

Seeing her serious expression, the little old man snorted softly, turned his head and left.

Seeing the little old man's reaction, Tong Ange knew in his heart that this was a promise.

Tong Ange sighed slightly, and his sanity was pulled back from the memory. If he sent someone to Zhou Guo to find the antidote, she might die before he found it. Go in person, but if you go, what excuse do you have?
This is a headache.

Qing Li, who was standing aside, watched Tong Ange's face change, and it was obvious that there was something bothering him, so he couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with the princess? Is there anything bothering you?"

"It's okay." Tong Ange shook her head, trying to make her face look calm, she still didn't have enough concentration, if she was in front of Princess Jinyang and Su Yu, she might have been discovered long ago.

Just as he was thinking, the waiter's voice came from outside the box: "Guest officer, your order is ready."

"come in."

The shop waiter arranged the dishes one by one, with a bright smile on his face: "Guest officer, our store has recently launched a new kind of fruit wine, which is sweet and sour and has a unique taste. Would you like to try it, guest officer?"

Hearing this, Tong Ange raised his eyebrows: "Then have a pot."

"Okay, I'll bring it to you right away."

The shop waiter went out, and soon brought in fruit wine. Tong Ange tasted it, and it really had a unique taste: "Qing Li, come and taste a little, it's not bad."

"Yes, princess." Qing Li took a sip, then nodded: "This scent is very unique, like... like a kind of fruit wine that my slaves drank in Chaozhou when they were young."

"Chaozhou?"

"Chaozhou is the border to the east of our Great Qi, adjacent to the state of Zhou. Most of the customs and food there are mixed with some customs of the state of Zhou. I heard that the kind of fruit wine is made of Zhou state's unique wine. Brewed from a fruit."

Listening to Qing Li's words, Tong Ange's eyes flickered, Zhou Guo...

"Are you familiar with that place?"

When Qing Li heard this, a look of nostalgia flashed across his face: "The hometown of my servant is Chaozhou, but my family suffered a disaster and I was left outside."

Hearing this, Tong Ange paused, and then said: "Since the fruit wine over there is delicious, why don't we try it."
