palace heart

Chapter 72
"A bowl of duck blood..." Ever since Li Qianlan fell ill, Imperial Physician Meng has been using various methods to help Li Qianlan vomit and wash his stomach, but Li Qianlan's poison is too deep, and it has been almost half an hour. It’s still not clear, if this continues, even the gods will be hard to save. Doctor Meng took the duck blood, and doctor Ji tried to pry open Li Qianlan’s teeth, and the two of them worked together, half of them fell on the bed, and the other half forcefully poured the blood into the mouth. into Li Qianlan's stomach.

"Ouch..." It was another disgusting nausea, Li Qianlan felt that life would be better than death, any revenge, any hatred, turned into the only thought at this time: early death and early reincarnation.

The medicine Chen Jinghua gave Li Qianlan was slightly heavier. She was supposed to mix it with water and drink one-third of it, but Li Qianlan made a fake show and made herself hurt a little harder, making everyone suspect When it came to her, she drank three-quarters of it, leaving only a small sip for the imperial physician to obtain evidence.

After taking so many medicines, it was naturally violent, and Li Qianlan didn't eat much today, so after 10 minutes, the poison in her body began to attack, which was a little earlier than Queen Mother Gao.

At first, she was just a little nauseous and throwing up.

Qiu Yun was clever, seeing that she had symptoms of poisoning, he immediately asked people to put away all the things that Li Qianlan had used just now, and at the same time sent someone to invite Doctor Meng to come over.

At this time, Qiu Yun thought at most that Li Qianlan's poisoning was not serious, and it might be a trick of Concubine Wu and the others.But before Doctor Meng arrived, Li Qianlan's poison began to intensify. She was rolling all over the bed with her stomach in her arms, slurring her speech and foaming at the mouth. arrive.

Physician Meng also thought it was not a serious poison at first, thinking that the weather was hot, and Li Qianlan was admitted, so he didn't think about it at all. But when he saw this symptom and tried the silver needle, his eyes immediately turned green. He was usually calm and stable. At this time, he couldn't help but panic. While sending someone to ask the imperial doctor Ji to help, and sending the medical girl to take duck blood, carbon ashes, etc. to wash the stomach, he sealed several large acupoints of Li Qianlan with needles to prevent her internal bleeding. The poisonous gas spread too fast.

At first, Li Qianlan only felt severe pain in her pharynx and abdomen. Her brain was still awake at this moment. She resisted the pain to prevent herself from passing out. She was very relieved when she saw Doctor Meng. Twisted, still sensibly cooperated with Doctor Meng's emetic method.

But later, she gradually lost control, her consciousness became more and more blurred, and her body became more and more exhausted. She began to not cooperate at all, she closed her eyes and moaned, clenching her teeth, not letting anything be poured into her mouth.

Doctor Meng and Doctor Ji worked together to open Li Qianlan's mouth, and forcefully poured emetics into it again and again, forcing Li Qianlan to vomit again and again. After doing this for more than ten rounds, the filthy things Li Qianlan vomited out gradually Turned clear, but Li Qianlan also passed out on the doctor's body due to lack of physical strength.

Chen Jinghua offered his own antidote, but Imperial Physician Meng didn't dare to use it, so he took the antidote that had just been brewed in the Imperial Hospital, tried it with silver needles, and then carefully fed it to Li Qianlan.

After everything was settled, he wiped the sweat off his head, knelt on the ground and bowed his head to Emperor Ying, who was sitting beside him with a pale face, and reported: "Go back to the emperor, most of the poison in Concubine Shu's body has been discharged, and the rest Poison, you only need to spend some time to drink the antidote and it will be eliminated slowly, please relax your mind and pay attention to the health of the dragon's body."

Emperor Ying was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot, he slapped the table heavily, but he didn't say anything, but it still scared the people in the room so much that they didn't dare to speak out.

Eunuch Xi's godson, the 15-year-old eunuch Wei who served by Emperor Ying's side, was appointed as a personal eunuch by Emperor Ying after Eunuch Xi's body was carried away, and he took the place of Eunuch Xi and followed him around.

At this moment, Eunuch Wei saw that Li Qianlan's condition had stabilized, and reminded him in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has also been poisoned by the same poison as Concubine Shu. Do you want to go to the Dexuan Hall to see the Empress Dowager?"

Empress Dowager Gao, it’s better to die. Let’s see how she can rob the world with me after she dies. Emperor Ying hates Empress Dowager Gao to death, and wishes she could die while taking advantage of the chaos, so that he will have an even greater reason to seize Shen The military power of the family, his right hand clenched into a fist on the table, then relaxed again, and asked in a dark voice: "How about the mother's poison?"

"Going back to the emperor, there was a stick of incense in the Dexuan Hall, the empress dowager's poison had already been cured, but when the imperial guards searched the Dexuan Hall, they found this on the top of the hall." Seeing the questioning, the eunuch of Dexuan Palace immediately knelt in to answer, and asked Eunuch Wei to pass on the newly found physical evidence.

Chen Jinghua peeked out that the physical evidence was left on the top of the hall on purpose, and he was secretly happy, Shen Hongde, you can take the life of Mr. Yurong if you want, we will let you take it now to repay.

Shen Mojun was so angry that he spurted blood from Emperor Ying's edict, and fell unconscious. Shen Hongde naturally knew the intention of Emperor Ying. He just wanted to use Li Qianlan to control Shen Mojun, and then use Shen Mojun to control him, Shen Hongde.

Shen Hongde was in a state of desperation, and he had given up three points of military power. He thought it was for his son's life, but his precious son, who had just improved, was harmed by Emperor Ying. He couldn't swallow this bad breath. is dead.

"Emperor Ying, don't you just want to use Li Qianlan to embarrass Mo Jun? Well, I'll let your means come to nothing. Let me tell you, it's impossible for a single Li Qianlan to be in charge of the life and death of our Shen family. Without the pawn that threatens Shen Mojun, Shen Mojun will also be completely relieved. Even if Shen Mojun has feelings for Li Qianlan again, after a few years, he will naturally forget about it." So Shen Hongde decided to kill Li Qianlan, and he locked himself in the study , and worked out a plan to assassinate Li Qianlan, but after thinking about it, he suddenly felt that cutting the weeds was better than eradicating the roots, and killing Yingdi was the root of the problem.

But after killing Emperor Ying, Prince Chengxian will ascend the throne, and Empress Dowager Gao will take the prince's young age as an excuse to listen to the government behind the curtain, and the Shen family's rights will inevitably be taken away slowly by Empress Dowager Gao.

But what if the Empress Dowager Gao is killed first?
Emperor Ying accepted the influence of Empress Dowager Gao, so he would naturally not guard against the Shen family anymore. Shen Hongde thought it was feasible. In the evening, seeing that Shen Mojun was still sleeping, he asked his second aunt to prepare a sedan chair for him, and went to the Ministry of War Shangshu Cao Keben's house. In the house, I asked Cao Keben to discuss the matter together.

It was also the time limit for Shen Hongde's fate to be decided, so when Chen Jinghua rioted in the palace, Shen Hongde happened to have evidence that he was not in the Shen residence, which established a possibility for him to cause chaos.

The news in the palace was not completely blocked, and Shen Hongde also heard someone report the matter in the Cao Mansion, but at that time Emperor Ying hadn't issued a verbal order to arrest Shen Hongde, so everyone didn't know who the assassin was?

Shen Hongde was naturally startled, he didn't expect that he would think twice about his actions, but this person killed three birds with one stone, he couldn't think of anyone in the court who would have a disturbed mind.

He said to Cao Keben: "Let's put our matter on hold for now, and we will talk about it after the matter subsides." After speaking, he left Cao's mansion quickly and went back in a sedan chair.

On the road, it was as dark as ink, except for the brothel which was still full of feasting lights, other restaurants and teahouses were already closed. When Shen Hongde returned to Shen's mansion, he found that Shen's mansion was silent, only scattered lanterns could be seen, no different from usual.

But Shen Hongde practiced martial arts since he was a child, so his hearing is naturally superior to that of ordinary people. He heard the heavy breathing hidden in the courtyard. He didn't know why, so he concentrated all his strength on his palm and stepped in cautiously.

"Hero Hero, come out!" Shen Hongde said loudly as he stepped into the door, stood by the door and swept around the dark shadows in the dark.

"Marshal Shen really has great skills. His subordinates and others are hiding so well that Marshal Shen can find out." Fang Taitong, the commander of the imperial army, stood up first, and immediately someone grabbed Shen Hongde's bag from all sides. At the same time, someone hung up a lantern to illuminate the The entire compound.

Shen Hongde saw that Shen Mojun was lying on a bamboo chair outside, surrounded by seven or eight imperial guards, and one of them was holding a big knife high up, facing the unhealed wound on Shen Mojun's abdomen, Second Aunt, The housekeeper and the servants of the mansion were all tied with white strips, and they were put on the veranda beside them, kneeling neatly and trembling.

Shen Hongde was baffled, and he was furious. He had great achievements and worked for the court for many years. Even if he withheld his military power, he still had to work hard all these years without credit. When did he get to the point where he was humiliated by others.

Shen Hongde got angry, pointed at the guard holding the knife, and pointed at the guards on the three floors inside and outside the courtyard and shouted: "Do you want to commit the following crime?"

"The next crime?" Fang Taitong knew how powerful Shen Hongde was, so he didn't dare to take it lightly. With his left hand holding the big knife on his waist, and his right hand concentrating his physical strength, he took a step forward cautiously, and snorted heavily: "Today, anyone who dares to commit the next crime, except Marshal Shen , can this country find a second person?"

"I don't even know what you're talking about?" Since ancient times, monarchs and ministers have had to die. The three powers and military power may have magnified Emperor Ying's appetite, so Emperor Ying acted first to be strong, to make a bitter plan, and then to cause disaster. He, took away all the military power in his hands to deal with Empress Dowager Gao, and finally stood shoulder to shoulder with the world, Shen Hongde was shocked, thinking that Emperor Ying is no longer the immature child he used to be.

Fang Taitong snorted, and ordered the guards beside him to read out the imperial decree: "Shen Hongde entered the palace to assassinate me, poisoned Empress Dowager Gao, and concubine Shu. The evidence is convincing, and he is now brought to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for interrogation." After finishing speaking, Fang Taitong He took the imperial decree and threw it on Shen Hongde.
