The imperial doctor hadn't arrived yet, but Xiao Xizi and other people from the Linhua Palace came back, carrying food boxes.
When Jiao Jiao saw her, she remembered that she had been hungry all day, and immediately clamored for food. Ji Yun quickly restrained her hands and feet, fearing that her hyperactivity would cause the poison to penetrate deeply.
Unexpectedly, when the imperial doctor arrived, after looking, hearing and questioning, he concluded that she was not poisoned, not even a trace.
Ji Yun couldn't believe it: "Are you sure she wasn't poisoned?"
At that time, she and she were the only ones in the palace. She was so scared that everyone was dumbfounded. She was so young, how could she know how to suck out the poison? How could she not be poisoned?
Several imperial doctors were also surprised. The bite mark on the wrist was clear, and the wound was as deep as an inch under the skin. The teeth of venomous snakes are highly venomous. Logically speaking, after the skin is broken, the toxin will invade the body and flow along the blood throughout the body. It can take as little as a cup of tea, or as much as He will surely die from the poison within a quarter of an hour.
Fortunately for her, she sat there for eight or nine hours without any signs of poisoning.
To be cautious, the elderly doctor Zhang asked again: "Princess, do you still remember how much the wound bleeded after being bitten? What color was the blood? Did you feel dizzy, nauseous and vomiting? Could it be that you fainted and someone came in to help you?" Sucked out the poison?"
Jiao Jiao shook his head and said concisely and concisely: "I don't dare to sleep because I have Wanwan."
Thinking of her true identity, Ji Yun did not dare to let the imperial doctor investigate further, and said vaguely: "Weird things are very common in Linhua Hall during the Ghost Festival. Since she is fine, the adults should go back first."
After saying this, without waiting for the reaction of several imperial doctors, he raised his voice and ordered: "Xiao Xizi, please send me some adults."
Several imperial doctors thought about it and realized that it was for this reason that they followed the ghost prince during the Ghost Festival. There were so many ghost things happening. The so-called poisonous snake might be the undead.
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt cold all over my body and hurriedly left the Linhua Hall.
In the house, after the meal was finished, Ji Yun waved the eunuch and asked: "Jiaojiao, did anything special happen last night?"
As we age, the yin energy will weaken, but it weakened particularly badly last night, and there were no evil spirits entangled!
Jiao Jiao shivered and recalled reluctantly: "Many ghosts came in, rushed toward us, and disappeared again when they reached the bed."
"Disappeared?"
Ji Yun found it incredible. The yin energy in his body was a great temptation for ghosts. He was extremely weak during the Ghost Festival. They would not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. How could it disappear inexplicably?
Jiao Jiaohou patted her small chest in fear: "Thankfully they disappeared. I kept looking at Wanwan and couldn't move. If they didn't disappear, they would definitely claim my soul."
Ji Yun asked again and again, but at that time, Jiao Jiao's attention was all on the snake corpse, and he had no time to be afraid of the ghosts that came towards him in various twisted postures and disgusting looks, let alone why they disappeared.
Helpless, he could only put it down for the time being, coax her back to Changxin Palace with kind words, and then proceed to examine the snake corpse.
He ordered someone to find the kitten and use the snake's teeth to make teeth marks on its legs. Within a moment, the kitten died.
Ji Yun fell into deep thought. This snake was indeed poisonous, so why was she okay?
Invulnerable to all poisons?
He secretly disposed of the kitten's body and ordered his men to find the source of the poisonous snake and the suspicious person who appeared outside Linhua Hall yesterday.
He was about to go to Changxin Palace to take a look at Jiao Jiao's injuries. When passing by Taichen Palace, he saw Imperial Doctor Zhang coming out of it. Ji Yun was slightly startled and called out to him: "Father, Emperor Long is ill?"
Doctor Zhang shook his head: "Your Highness is filial and your Majesty is fine. I called this old minister to inquire about the princess's poisoning."
Ji Yun nodded slightly and said politely: "Excuse me for your trouble, sir. I heard that your Majesty loves Yuqian Longjing very much. I got some new ones, and I will send them to you in a few days."
Doctor Zhang bowed in fear, and refused again and again before accepting.
The source of the poisonous snake could not be traced for a long time, and the situation in Linhua Palace that day was special. Except for Xiao Chunzi and the other three, there was no one else within a hundred miles, and no suspicious persons were found.
The issue of empty pay aroused the hostility of the upper-level generals. Ji Yun was too busy to touch the ground, so the matter could only be left alone.
Time flows like running water, and three years pass by in a blink of an eye. Seventeen-year-old Ji Yun has to wait for the king of the road.
It was a rainy autumn day, and it was rare for Ji Yun to return to the palace. After hearing the news, Jiao Jiao ran to the Lai Hua Palace to find him. They played until noon, so of course they stayed to have lunch together.
The imperial dining room was also very considerate. The lunch they delivered was very sumptuous, including quail crystal wonton, assorted chicken shreds, winter bamboo shoots and magnolia slices, purple ginseng and pheasant soup, etc. The table was full, and everyone ate it happily.
Occasionally, when she raised her head to pick up vegetables, she caught a glimpse of a bright red color. She was shocked and said, "Second brother, you have a nosebleed!"
Ji Yun was stunned for a moment, and the next moment he saw a drop of blood dripping into the rice. The blood showed an abnormal dark purple color.
Without thinking, he took out the silver hairpin from his hair and inserted it into the assorted chicken wire at hand. The silver hairpin turned black at a speed visible to the naked eye.
His expression suddenly changed: "Poisonous!"
When he tried other dishes, they were all poisonous without exception. Fortunately, he was just thinking about something and only took a bite of shredded chicken.
"Go quickly..."
Before he finished speaking, his vision went dark and he lost consciousness.
"Second brother!" Jiao Jiao jumped up and pushed Ji Yun's head straight, and saw blood flowing out from the corners of his nose and mouth.
"Here comes someone! Xiao Xizi, Xiao Chunzi! The imperial doctor——" She shouted anxiously, but no one came in for a long time.
When she went out, she saw that the Linhua Palace was empty. She was so anxious that she got angry. She cursed angrily, "Where are you dead?" and ran out, preparing to call the imperial doctor.
When she ran into the hospital, she suddenly paused and looked back at Ji Yun, who was lying on the table without knowing anyone else. Then she glanced at the empty Linhua Hall, turned around decisively, went in, picked up Ji Yun and ran towards the Taiyuan Hospital.
She was born with great strength and could carry Ji Yun, who had been sick since childhood, without any pressure. She arrived at the Tai Hospital in less than a moment.
"Imperial Physician! Imperial Physician Zhang! Imperial Physician Wang! Come and see, my second brother has been poisoned!" She shouted loudly before entering the door.
Seeing her, all the doctors looked a little unnatural, and they pushed each other and refused to come forward. It wasn't until she entered the hospital that Dr. Zhang said bravely: "Third princess, why are you here?"
His second brother's life was hanging by a thread, so Jiao Jiao didn't have time to observe their expressions. He quickly glanced at the situation in the hospital. Under the east verandah, there was a bed for the imperial concubine, and an old doctor with all white hair and beard was getting up tremblingly.
She strode over, pulled it open, put Ji Yun on it, twisted around and grabbed the imperial doctor's hand, and said anxiously: "Detoxify him quickly!"
The elderly Dr. Jiang was staggered by her, and finally managed to regain his balance. He looked embarrassed and said, "The veteran specializes in gynecology and is not good at detoxification."
Jiao Jiao immediately let go of him and looked at the imperial physician next to him. The imperial physician shook the medical box in his hand and said, "Concubine Xian has not been eating well recently. I have been ordered to go to diagnose her pulse."
Jiao Jiao's heart sank slightly. She was already over eight years old and had already witnessed the conspiracy and calculations in the palace. The food was poisoned and the imperial doctor refused. It was obvious that someone deliberately did this to kill her second brother.
She looked at the others again, and sure enough, when they met her gaze, the doctors all found various reasons to refuse.
"Wei Chen is going to give birth to Empress Mei."
"Master Zuo Xiang suddenly suffered from a serious illness..."
Jiao Jiao calmed his expression and said in a cold voice: "One, two, three."
The imperial doctors were puzzled. Some of them carried the medical box and walked out, while others surrounded her and delayed her with words: "Third princess, don't worry. Imperial Physician Wang, who is good at detoxifying, is off today. I will send someone to fetch her." "
"Yeah, hurry up..."
Jiao Jiao quickly pulled out the hairpin from his head, inserted it firmly into a person's heart, and then pulled it out suddenly.
A stream of blood spurted out from the chest of the imperial physician, sprinkling all the nearby imperial physicians.
The imperial doctors who were persuading Jiao Jiao felt as if their necks were being strangled, and their verbose words stopped abruptly; the imperial doctors who were about to go out for medical treatment were as if they had been cast a restraining spell and were stunned in place.
The entire hospital fell silent for an instant, with only the rustling of leaves in the wind and Ji Yun's painful moans.
Jiao Jiao didn't give them any buffering time. He turned his head to look at one person and said in a cold voice again: "One, two, three."
After finishing the last word, she raised her hand, and the blood-stained hairpin in her hand was sent directly into the man's heart.
The bright red blood splattered again, and the doctors were frightened and frightened, and quickly dispersed away from her.
Several old doctors tried to make eye contact and discuss a solution, but Jiao Jiao didn't give them time. After pulling out the hairpin, he kept looking at the doctor.
Under her cold eyes, the man trembled, and without waiting for her to count, he quickly pulled out the silver needle, rushed to the imperial concubine's bed, and gave Ji Yun a few needles: "I will give the second prince a needle first to suppress the spread of the poison. ! Shitou, go get Baicao Pills quickly!"
After him, Doctor Zhang also stepped forward to take his pulse: "This poison is extremely toxic, and His Highness has always been weak. I am afraid that Baicao Pills cannot completely detoxify. Song Mo, go get the medicine!"
Imperial Doctor Zhang has superb medical skills and is also the deputy director of the Imperial Hospital. With his leadership, other imperial physicians took action one after another, prescribing prescriptions and decoctions. Even the few imperial physicians who went to visit various palaces also took action. Join them and get busy.
Jiao Jiao felt slightly relieved, dropped the hairpin, walked over and grabbed Ji Yun's hand, whimpering and whispering: "Second brother, you must get better."
All the imperial doctors were astonished. A moment ago, he was a cold and indifferent killer, but now he became a frightened chick who was crying in tears and panic!
This change is so big!
After drinking two bowls of medicine, Ji Yun woke up.
Jiao Jiao suddenly burst into tears, speechless to express his fear.
Ji Yun struggled to find a sense of clarity amidst the hotness and coldness, held her hand weakly, and smiled vaguely: "I'm fine, don't be afraid."
His nearly brown eyes flashed with indistinguishable sadness, and for a moment, he said quietly but firmly: "Jiao Jiao has not grown up, and my brother does not dare to die at will."
Although the poison was cured in time, Ji Yun was still weak, and it took him nearly half a month to recover.
In Linhua Hall, Jiao Jiao took a big mouthful of hibiscus cake and chewed it hard, as if chewing. Concubine Zheng Xian said: "Pixiang Palace is so cunning. Concubine Luo immediately took people to search after getting the news. No evidence was found!"
Ji Yun felt a pain in his heart and said in a vague voice, "Maybe she really wasn't the instigator."
"How is that possible?"
Jiao Jiao swallowed the hibiscus cake and said angrily: "You don't know, all the doctors declined that day, and the doctor Wang, who was best at detoxifying, changed his position and rested at home.
And in our Linhua Palace, someone falsely conveyed the decree of Concubine Luo and summoned Xiao Xizi, Xiao Chunzi and others away. Other palace residents were also summoned away for various reasons, and even the guards disappeared.
Three days later, news came out that Empress Zheng was pregnant. What a coincidence! She must have known she was pregnant in advance and deliberately planned this to get rid of you, a powerful competitor, for her son! "
Ji Yun opened his lips with a trace of bitterness: "It's just speculation. There is no conclusive evidence, so you must not act rashly."
Jiao Jiao held his chin in contemplation: "You're right, it's not necessarily Pixiang Palace, it's also possible for others, such as the eldest brother, who has always been jealous that you win the Father's Sacred Heart better than he does.
Well, I have to tell Concubine Luo that Pixiang Palace must be watched, and the eldest brother cannot be spared, and there are other ladies, it is possible! "
Ji Yun didn't want her to guess the person behind the scenes, so he took advantage of the situation and said, "Go ahead and remember to discuss it with your mother and concubine. You are inexperienced and young. If the people behind the scenes dare to attack me, there is no guarantee that they will not attack you."
"I know." Jiao Jiao nodded solemnly, lifted up her skirt and ran towards Changxin Palace.
Watching her leave, Ji Yun sighed sadly: "This is the most ruthless emperor's house."
Even if Concubine Zheng Xian had the guts to blatantly poison the prince, she would not do it. Moreover, there was only one person who could quietly transfer the guards of Linhua Palace and make the entire Imperial Hospital obey orders.
That night eight years ago, the palace servants, Wen Po, wet nurse, eunuchs and maids who served in Weiyang Palace all died. If he died too, that person would be the only one in the world who knew that Jiao Jiao was Xi Yue.
When did his murderous intent begin?
Ji Yun suddenly remembered the poisonous snake that suddenly appeared in Linhua Hall in Zhongyuan three years ago, but the source could not be found out afterwards.
He probably wanted to kill himself at that time.
On the Ghost Festival, Linhua Hall was deserted for a hundred miles, and I fell into sleep again. What a great opportunity.
Was it because Jiao Jiao insisted on guarding her during the Ghost Festival that she didn't take action in the next three years?
Ji Yun recalled that after the poisonous snake incident, Doctor Zhang had gone to Taichen Palace to report the incident, so he must have guessed that Jiao Jiao was immune to all poisons.
Each one of them pointed to that person as the mastermind.
Ji Yun was heartbroken. Although he had memories of his past life and had disliked Chenghuan at his parents' knees since he was a child; even though he was suspected many times because of his identity; even though he was disliked by his parents because of his yin energy, he really regarded that person as his father.
He even devoted all his unfulfilled filial piety to his parents in his previous life to them, but in the end, he was poisoned again and again.
Tiger poison does not yet eat seeds!
Ji Yun closed his eyes and exhaled heavily. When he opened them again, the pain and sadness in his eyes had completely disappeared.
After this time, he would use silver needles to test for poison when he ate. He did not drink tea or wine, only water. He also brought sufficient guards with him when traveling. However, he was still assassinated repeatedly and his life was hanging by a thread many times.
Through repeated experiences, he became a qualified prince, cultivated his own power, and gradually gained a voice in the court.
In the 19th year of Xuande's reign, Xu Kaiwei, Minister of the Ministry of War, impeached the second prince Ji Yun for embezzling money to build the Yuanjiang dike. The Royal Forest Army found dirty silver in Linhua Palace.
Changping Hou Lao burst into tears, saying that he was sorry for the late emperor's promotion and his current majesty's cultivation. He could do whatever he wanted at the moment.
