Jiang Xinyue sat beside Emperor Xuanwu's bed, listening to Pei Zhongshu's impassioned condemnation of Miao Jiang's Gu arts, and finally revealed his true purpose: "The Ministry of Punishment is responsible for interrogating the specific location of the Miao Jiang clan this time. If it fails, it means that it is not trying its best. Therefore, They need to be held accountable for causing the emperor's dragon body to become unsafe."
When she finally got the chance, she wanted to kill her cheap dad.
The emperor's face turned pale and he vomited another mouthful of blood: "I gave it to Jiang Aiqing because I believed in his ability. Now that I have been poisoned, what you should do is to work together to find someone who can detoxify. Everyone has personal grudges. If you prevent the Ministry of Punishment from investigating the case, I will tell you the ugly story first, so don’t blame me for punishing you nine tribes when the time comes."
Emperor Xuanwu himself was not a coward, let alone someone who could be manipulated by others.
When his life was at stake, he was even more frighteningly awake, looking at Pei Zhongshu with a strong warning in his eyes.
If Pei Zhongshu didn't want to be punished by the nine clans, he wouldn't dare to act rashly, otherwise the emperor's life would be in danger and the nine clans of the Pei family would be buried with him before his death.
There is no need to doubt the ability of the king of a country. When he goes crazy, no one can escape.
"Cough cough cough..."
Emperor Xuanwu clutched his chest, his whole body felt like being bitten by poisonous insects, but with his super self-control, he endured the severe pain and said: "Everyone, please step back. The Imperial Concubine will stay."
Pei Zhongshu wanted to say something else, but when he faced the emperor's strong eyes, he didn't look like he was going to die soon, so he had to withdraw unwillingly.
"puff!"
After everyone retreated, the emperor vomited out another mouthful of blood. He could no longer hold back and fell on the bed. He clenched his fists tightly and his teeth were almost broken. He couldn't help but let out a low roar of pain.
Jiang Xinyue looked and saw that there seemed to be a small insect under Emperor Xuanwu's skin, from the neck all the way down.
She whispered: "Mr. Yan! Physician Yan, come here quickly!"
The imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital who were good at detoxification were stationed outside the emperor's chamber. Imperial Physician Yan was the imperial concubine's most trusted physician, and the Imperial Imperial Hospital was the emperor's confidant.
So the two of them came in together.
The first thing Yuan Zheng saw when he came in was to see Jiang Xinyue. After all, she only called Doctor Yan, but she followed him in.
The main reason is that there are rumors outside that the emperor was actually killed by the imperial concubine. The emperor was poisoned on the day of the dinner, and the imperial concubine disappeared with the emperor for a long time that night, and then reappeared together.
They all said that the imperial concubine was very ambitious and wanted to push the sixth prince to be a puppet emperor and listen to politics from behind the curtain, so she killed the emperor.
He was pushed in by the courtiers because they were afraid that the imperial concubine would commit regicide.
Jiang Xinyue didn't look at him at all, but pointed at the squirming insect under the emperor's skin and said, "Is there any way to get that insect out?"
Emperor Xuanwu looked at his wrist in pain, and there was indeed a small bulging lump moving around.
After all, Gu worms were still too mysterious, and the emperor himself did not dare to act rashly. He could only watch the bulging mass under his flesh.
Doctor Yan didn't dare to blink: "It would be great if Zhang Meiren's veil that attracts the poisonous insects is still there, so that the poisonous insects can be controlled to stay in one place."
At first, the malaria gu causes vomiting of blood and severe pain like being eaten all over the body. After four days, the person's abdomen becomes distended and painful, with vomiting and diarrhea that can leave the person hanging with only one breath left.
After more than ten days of this, the person will collapse and die, and the poisonous insects will emerge from the flesh and explode themselves.
It can be seen that Zhang Meiren really hated the emperor and wanted him to suffer torture before dying.
"After four days, the mites will migrate to the emperor's intestines and stomach, and it will be almost impossible to remove them by then.
If there is no antidote, one can only watch the emperor being tortured to death by the malaria worm.
"Are you sure a veil is enough?"
"Does your Majesty have it in your hand?"
Jiang Xinyue shook her head: "I had previously suspected that Zhang Meiren had administered the medicine. Based on Ye Changzai's confession, I took a handkerchief from her and asked Jiang Guifei to analyze what the aroma on it was? If it's true as Dr. Yan said In this way, I and Jiang Guifei are considered to have collided by mistake."
After saying that, she said to Xiao Xiangzi who was standing far away: "Go and ask Concubine Jiang to come and ask her to bring the veil."
Jiang Guifei came very quickly, because she had not gone too far at all: "Empress, I will give you a veil."
Jiang Xinyue took it and immediately gave it to Imperial Physician Yan. Imperial Physician Yan looked at the Chancellor who was eager to try, and handed the handkerchief to him: "The Chancellor and the subordinates have told you that the Imperial Concubine has the deepest affection for the Emperor. It will not harm the emperor, do you believe it now?"
If she wanted to harm the emperor, she would not have called the imperial doctor in time, let alone handed over this veil that could help the emperor delay his pain.
As long as she quietly watched the emperor being tortured to death by the Gu insects, she would be the biggest winner.
Three of the emperor's four sons are in her name!
The third prince had been poisoned, his body was weak, and he couldn't speak yet. It was still a bit uncertain to ascend the throne and become a little emperor.
The one with the best chance is the Sixth Prince. The Emperor's preference for the Sixth Prince is obvious to all, both inside and outside the court.
Yuan Zheng was a little embarrassed and tied the scarf to the emperor's left arm. As expected, the Gu insect stopped under the scarf and kept trembling.
But pain in one place is much easier to bear than pain all over the body.
Emperor Xuanwu sighed comfortably, and his consciousness gradually became clearer. Jiang Xinyue twisted a hot cloth and carefully wiped the sweat off his forehead and neck. Her eyes were full of heartache: "Does it still hurt?"
The emperor shook his head, showed a pale smile, and then said to the court: "Hu Aiqing, if I unfortunately fall into a coma and cough...my safety can be completely entrusted to the imperial concubine. There is no need to question her sincerity towards me."
In the palace, a secret decree had been written long ago on the beams of the Qianqing Palace. If he died young, the sixth prince would inherit the throne. Several ministers he trusted would serve as ministers of auxiliary affairs to assist the sixth prince until he became emperor. Delegate power after marriage.
The imperial concubine loves him, he has no doubt about it.
Hu Yuanzheng blushed and nodded repeatedly: "I...all listen to the emperor."
Jiang Xinyue looked at the emperor up and down, and then she felt relieved and said to the emperor: "When I was a child, I loved reading miscellaneous journals about mountains and rivers, geography, but my father preferred the unique books of literary masters. If I find the Miao people , I may be able to be faster than my father. Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to let me assist my father."
There was genuine emotion in her eyes, she really wanted to find those Miao border cultivators as soon as possible and remove the emperor's voodoo poison.
Surprise burst out in the emperor's eyes: "Yue'er, I place my hope on you."
He still has so many great ambitions and hegemonies that he has yet to realize, and he doesn't want to die.
Originally, Jiang Yankun was asked to do this because he saw that Jiang Xinyue was very familiar with the geography of mountains and rivers, and thought it was all taught by Jiang Yankun.
It turns out that Yue'er taught herself.
