With an exclamation, Song Shu Wanfei ran back.
The emperor fell to the ground, his whole body twitching.
Pei Huan did not expect such a change, so he turned around as he walked out: "Wan'er, what's wrong with the emperor?"
Song Shuwan carefully felt the emperor's pulse and frowned instantly: "Bring the golden needle, the emperor is... poisonous."
What?
Pei Huan was furious: "How dare someone poison the emperor? Come, get the golden needle."
Not long after, the golden needle Song Shuwan asked for was fetched. She sealed the emperor's heart veins at an extremely fast speed, and then sent people to the Imperial Hospital to get medicine.
While busy, a middle-aged man in green clothes appeared in the inner hall. After Pei Huan noticed it, he immediately walked over.
"Prince Ping, why are you here?"
Prince Ping smiled slightly: "I heard that there was an accident here, so I came to see what happened to the emperor?"
"Poison hair."
Prince Ping's expression changed: "If I remember correctly, the Emperor doesn't have much time to live, right? In this situation, is there anyone who can't wait?"
Pei Huan lowered his gaze slightly: "It should be the Queen Mother."
Prince Ping narrowed his eyes: "The Queen Mother is in the imperial study. Go and inquire. If she is the one who poisoned me, ask her to hand over the antidote immediately."
Pei Huan nodded, glanced at Song Shuwan, and took An San to the imperial study.
On the other side, Song Shuwan wiped the sweat from her forehead and frowned uncontrollably. The emperor's body was already weak, but now he was poisoned again, and his life time was even shorter.
No, if the poison cannot be detoxified today, the emperor may not even see the sun tomorrow morning.
The person who poisoned the poison was so anxious that he was not even willing to give it to the emperor until he died.
Just as she was thinking about it, she noticed that there was another person behind her. She thought it was Pei Huan, so she turned around and called: "Your Majesty..."
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Song Shuwan was stunned. Who was the middle-aged man standing behind her?
His thoughts turned around quickly, and an idea suddenly came to his mind. He asked tentatively: "Are you Prince Ping?"
"right."
Prince Ping smiled and nodded, his eyes fell on the bed, and he said softly: "How is he doing now?"
"Poisoned, I'm temporarily suppressing it with golden needles, but..."
Song Shuwan paused here, and then sighed.
King Ping understood: "Prince Pei has already gone to see the Queen Mother. If everything goes well, he should be able to get the antidote back soon."
As soon as these words came out, Song Shuwan's eyes became more surprised: "Your Majesty, you mean that the poison on the Emperor's body may be related to the Queen Mother?"
"It's very possible."
Prince Ping turned around and motioned for Song Shuwan to follow him: "Let's go, I have something to ask you."
Song Shuwan pursed her lips and slowly followed in Prince Ping's footsteps.
"I've been feeling a little unwell lately, and I don't know if there's something wrong. I want you to help me take a look."
Prince Ping was very gentle, and there was no air of pretense in his words.
Song Shuwan said quickly: "Your Majesty, you are so polite. I will show you the daughter of the common people to Your Majesty now."
The two found a place. Song Shuwan checked Prince Ping's pulse. After a moment, she withdrew her hand and said, "The prince is in good health, but he seems to be very tired recently and needs to rest for a few days. However, this is only a minor problem and there is no need to take it to heart."
Prince Ping nodded: "I've been traveling a lot lately and I'm really tired, but are you sure there's nothing wrong with my health?"
Song Shuwan paused, feeling a little hesitant inexplicably. Could it be that Prince Ping's physical problems couldn't be diagnosed by pulse diagnosis?
Because of this idea, she thought for a moment and finally chose to ask directly: "Your Majesty, do you have some very special problems with your body?"
Prince Ping paused slightly: "What are your guesses?"
Song Shuwan said truthfully: "People's girls have encountered problems before. Diagnosing the pulse could not reveal the condition. One was a strange poison, and the other was a poisonous insect."
"Gu worm?" Prince Ping focused his attention directly on the latter, "What does this gu worm say?"
"There's no explanation. It's just that Gu insects usually lurk very well and it's difficult to detect abnormalities. You need to use blood and golden needles to detect some problems."
Song Shuwan raised her eyes, guessing in her heart that there was probably a poisonous insect in Prince Ping.
The next moment, Prince Ping spoke: "Miss Song, do you think there are poisonous insects on my body?"
"The daughter of the people is not sure. If the prince really wants to know, the daughter of the people can help test it out."
Just as Prince Ping was about to speak, a man walked up quickly and whispered a few words in his ear.
Prince Ping's expression suddenly changed: "Miss Song, I still have some things to deal with. I'll see you later."
Song Shuwan nodded and watched Prince Ping leave before returning to Cining Palace.
Not long after, Pei Huan turned around.
Song Shuwan took a look and immediately asked: "The Crown Prince is back, what does the Queen Mother say?"
"The poison was not administered by the Queen Mother."
Pei Huan replied, looked around, and saw that Prince Ping was not there, he immediately asked: "Where is Prince Ping? Why isn't he here?"
"Just now someone said a few words to Prince Ping, and then Prince Ping left."
Speaking of this, Song Shuwan lowered her voice slightly: "Your Majesty, there may be a poisonous insect in Prince Ping."
"Gu insect?" Pei Huan's pupils shrank: "What's going on?"
Song Shuwan explained the situation again and frowned: "Didn't Prince Ping leave the capital a long time ago? How could he be infected by a poisonous insect?"
Pei Huan's face looked a little ugly: "Although he has left the capital, he is not far from here. He has been..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sound of rapid footsteps.
Song Shuwan and Pei Huan looked at the same time and saw Prince Ning coming in with dozens of men with a sullen face.
"How long will you stay in the palace? Don't tell me, you won't leave until Prince Ping ascends the throne."
Pei Huan smiled: "Prince Ning is impatient?"
"What do you think?"
Prince Ning's eyes were full of killing intent. If eyes could kill, Pei Huan would have been riddled with holes.
"Don't be impatient. You won't be able to wait until that time."
Pei Huan comforted him, and as soon as he finished speaking, someone trotted into the hall.
"The prince said that Prince Pei and Prince Ning can leave the palace, but Miss Song will have to stay in the palace overnight until tomorrow morning. The prince will personally send someone to send Miss Song back."
Prince Ning didn't waste any time, turned around and left.
Pei Huan's face darkened. He guessed King Ping's intention of retaining people, but he couldn't accept this.
"I want to see Prince Ping."
The messenger smiled: "The prince said that he has not seen Prince Pei, and please rest assured that he will not do anything to Miss Song. Please leave Prince Pei."
Pei Huan was about to speak, but Song Shuwan pulled down the corner of his clothes and said softly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Prince Ping seems to have a good temper."
Just because you have a good temper doesn't mean you have no means.
Pei Huan frowned, but he couldn't say much in front of Prince Ping's people.
"I'll go back first. I'll come to the palace to pick you up personally tomorrow morning."
Speaking of the latter, Pei Huan glanced at King Ping's men before striding away.
As soon as he walked away with his front foot, King Ping appeared in front of Song Shuwan with his back foot.
"Miss Song, can you test it for me now?"
