The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 177 The Palace Thorn (3)
The emperor is old, the skin on his body is loose, and there are already some spots of different shades. Even so, there is still a blue-gray vein clearly showing on the inside of his forearm——

From the wrist vein upwards, it goes straight to the inside of the elbow, and at this moment it can be clearly seen that the skin of his entire right hand is also faintly glowing with a bluish-gray lifelessness.

"This—" Empress Luo's face turned pale with shock, and she almost yelled out, but fortunately, she was used to seeing big scenes, so she immediately suppressed her emotions, lest she would disturb the people below and cause chaos.

But Concubine De and the others didn't have such profound concerns. Seeing the emperor like this, all the women panicked instantly.

Qing Concubine Liu was the first to scream: "Poisoned! It seems to be poisoned! Come, hurry up! Xuan Tai Physician!"

As soon as this remark came out, the pot below exploded without any surprise.

Empress Luo couldn't suppress it no matter how much she tried, she just scolded in a cold voice: "What are you making so much noise in front of the emperor?"

After speaking, he went to help the emperor worriedly, and said, "Your Majesty, my concubine will help you to pass on to the imperial physician first!"

The emperor's eyes were gloomy. It had been a short while since the incident happened, but he never made a sound. At this moment, he resolutely brushed away Empress Luo's hand who was about to come to help him, and said in a cold and steady tone: "Close Palace gate, control everyone who has entered and exited here today!"

His first reaction—

But it is to control the door and prevent the murderer from having time to escape.

But as soon as he uttered a sentence, he felt dizzy in his head, and his face was even faintly darkened.

While speaking, Lord Yanling has rushed over with a group of imperial physicians.

Today's Imperial Hospital respects him, probably for the sake of meritorious service, and a veteran Kang imperial physician rushes to feel the emperor's pulse.

Chu Xunyang watched from a distance, and frowned.

And Lord Yanling didn't make a sound, just lightly grabbed his sleeve in the dark and flicked it back lightly. The man's feet were unsteady. When he stabilized his figure, Lord Yanling had already walked to the emperor without hesitation. before.

He didn't take his pulse at first, but turned his eyes quickly, and took out two small hairpins inlaid with pearls from the hair of a maidservant next to him.

The hairpin is very small, although it is not as exquisite and delicate as the gold needles used for piercing the acupuncture points, but it is not much different.

His movements were quick, first he sealed the two large arteries on the emperor's upper arm with the thin needle, and then pressed his thumb on the center of his brow and temple and massaged twice.

Other imperial physicians always came up to check the pulse first, and he was young. Empress Luo had treated him as someone who was trying to gain fame, and wanted to reprimand him, but after he precisely pressed the acupuncture points for the emperor, the emperor himself Miraculously, the slack eyes were temporarily relieved, and he let out a low "huh", but he didn't pass out.

"The situation is urgent just now, and I have offended you. Your Majesty, please forgive me." Then Lord Yanling opened his mouth and bowed to the emperor.

The emperor glanced at his arm, his eyes narrowed, no one could see what was in his eyes, and then his eyes had moved to Lord Yanling's face, and said, "I'm poisoned?"

"Yes!" Lord Yanling said, but he didn't even look at the emperor while speaking, but quickly scanned the surrounding people sharply, and explained, "This poison is not contaminated through food and drink. I have come into contact with cups and cups that are poisoned. This kind of poison usually spreads quickly, but because the skin is contaminated and has not been integrated into the blood, it may delay for a while. Therefore, the current symptoms of your majesty's poisoning Look, at this moment, the poisoner should still be in the palace!"

While speaking, his attitude was extremely disrespectful, he kept looking around, without even looking at the emperor.

The Imperial Physician Kang who had just been squeezed by him was about to go into a fit, but he raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly raised his finger to a very unremarkable little court lady behind Tuoba Rongyao and said, "Search her! "

He has always behaved in a romantic and uninhibited manner, so that people can't feel much majesty at a glance, and he didn't feel that his words were so harsh. Just now, he was surprised that the emperor was poisoned and gathered to escort him. Someone subconsciously stepped out and dragged the maid with her neck shrunk out.

"What are you doing?" Tuoba Rongyao was startled, and asked in a cold voice.

The emperor himself was poisoned, so he couldn't control the reactions of other people. Hearing Lord Yanling's words, he immediately said in a deep voice: "Search!"

The guard threw the palace maid to the ground, and raised his hand to pick off her clothes.

The palace maid raised her head in panic, only then did everyone realize that she also had the same gray and dead air on her face as the emperor's face, which was obviously a sign of poisoning.

There was a sudden change here, and everyone's eyes gathered.

Lord Yanling stood by the emperor's side all the time without moving, looked up and down the maidservant, his eyes fixed on her tightly clenched right hand, raised his hand and pointed, "The antidote is in her hand!"

Hearing this, the guard quickly went to break her hand.

The palace maid had just let him search in fear, but now she suddenly started to struggle violently.

But she is only a weak woman, plus she was poisoned, how can she earn more than a tall and burly guard?

The guard easily snatched a dark blue pill from her hand, full of suspicion, first brought it over to Lord Yanling for inspection.

Looking back, the maidservant's entire face was already obviously purple-black, lying on the ground with twitching hands and feet, her face was almost distorted in pain, but there was a gurgling sound in her throat, and she couldn't even utter a cry for help.

The emperor moved his gaze over, and shouted at the stunned imperial physician, "Why don't you go and have a look?"

If this person is a murderer, he must be kept alive.

But judging from the current situation, it is unlikely.

Here Lord Yanling has quickly tested the medicine and ordered someone to prepare water for the emperor to take.

The emperor was always suspicious, so he probably went to the doctor in a hurry right now, and he never asked anyone to test the medicine, so he just swallowed the pill with the water Li Ruixiang brought.

He closed his eyes and waited for a while, the Imperial Physician Kang knelt down in fear and reported: "Your Majesty, this servant girl died of poison, I am ashamed!"

The emperor slowly opened his eyes and looked over.

Lord Yanling smiled faintly, walked over and glanced at the corpse of the maidservant, and said: "Probably he was not very contaminated when the poison was delivered to His Majesty, the poison is very strong, and he will die if he is not cured. It is also expected, it is not the fault of Mr. Kang and others, please forgive me."

Tuoba Rongyao, who was stunned by the side for a while, finally recovered, and said in disbelief, "What did you say? You mean that Rong Yan poisoned the emperor?"

Lord Yanling glanced at her eager eyes, but still smiled calmly, "Your Majesty, please calm down, I am just a doctor, only responsible for pulse diagnosis, not for judging cases."
