Throughout the day today, Zhou Cheng was restless and seemed absent-minded.
He had already reported the new prescription, and the other six imperial physicians checked it individually, but found no problems. The pharmacy said that the soup and medicine had been decocted by the emperor.
It was precisely because of this that Zhou Cheng became more and more uneasy. He knew that if the emperor died of poison after drinking the soup, the palace guards would definitely control them as imperial doctors immediately. There is a problem with the prescription he prescribed.
No, I must take my family and leave the capital immediately before the emperor dies from the poison, the farther the better.
Thinking of this, Zhou Cheng immediately went to the doctor Tian De, but he hadn't figured out how to say this, but Tian De saw his frowning expression, and couldn't help but asked with concern: "Old Zhou, what are you doing?" gone?"
Because of Zhou Cheng's superb medical skills and won the trust of the empress, even though Tian De was in charge of his immediate superior, he was always polite to him.
Now that Tian De took the initiative to ask, Zhou Cheng followed suit, heaved a long sigh, and said with a helpless smile: "The family is unlucky, there is an unfilial son, and troubles outside, alas..."
Zhou Cheng sighed again, as if he couldn't speak anymore.
Everyone is an imperial doctor, Tian De has also heard about Zhou Cheng's son's incompetence, and he felt sympathy for him for a while, patted Zhou Cheng on the shoulder and said: "Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. Come on...Since you have something to do at home, you should go home early today."
Zhou Cheng glanced at Tian De gratefully, expressing his thanks repeatedly, and then rushed home in a hurry without taking care of packing up his things.
Looking at the back of Zhou Cheng leaving in such a hurry, Tian De couldn't help but shook his head repeatedly, and secretly sighed that he really felt sorry for the parents of the world...
Zhou Cheng hurried home and found the cloth bag with gold hidden under the bed, but instead of going out of the city to join his family and flee the capital immediately as agreed, he sat down at the desk and began to write. Started a letter.
He was careful, after all he had done a dirty thing for the prince, and he was also worried that the prince would silence him and even the whole family, so he had to leave some evidence so that the prince's people would not dare to do anything to him.
He wrote so engrossed that he didn't notice a black figure quietly appearing behind him.
Hei Ying stood behind Zhou Cheng, and when he read the contents of the letter clearly, he was startled for a moment, and then a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
This idiot saved himself a lot of trouble.
Zhou Cheng just stopped writing after writing a page full of eloquence. He just felt a little sore in his back and stretched his waist involuntarily.
The black shadow behind him turned cold, and pulled the rope to strangle Zhou Cheng's neck with lightning speed...
Zhou Cheng was attacked suddenly, and instinctively wanted to break free, but as a doctor, his strength was no match for the strong man behind him.
The black shadow behind him looked as cold as iron, and continued to exert strength in his hands. Finally, Zhou Cheng slowly collapsed on the ground, completely silent...
Only then did the black shadow let go of the rope, probed Zhou Cheng's breath, and made sure that he was completely out of breath. Then he threw the rope in his hand onto the beam and tied a knot, then hoisted Zhou Cheng's body up, and kicked a chair Flip right under the corpse, pretending to commit suicide in fear of guilt...
In the end, he glanced at the letter on the table, the accusation against Prince Xiao Jie of killing his father appeared vividly on the paper, he couldn't help but sneered, then closed the doors and windows, and walked away...
……
At the same time, in the imperial study room.
At this time, there were only three people in the huge imperial study room, the emperor Xiao Ji, the internal servant Lian Yi, and the Qilin guard commander Zhang Chu.
The two bowls of medicinal soup were placed on the imperial table in front of Xiao Ji, without moving at all.
Xiao Ji's face was as sinking as water, his eyes fixed on the two bowls of soup in front of him, his eyes were terribly gloomy.
Zhang Chu stood far away, not daring to look up at the Son of Heaven, but kept looking down at the ground, not knowing what to think.
Lian Yi stood beside Xiao Ji, looked at Xiao Ji, was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Your Majesty..."
"Let's get started." Xiao Ji didn't look back at Lian Yi, but coldly spit out two words from between his teeth.
Lian Yi heaved a long sigh, brought an empty bowl, poured half of the two bowls of medicinal soup, and then stirred with a spoon for a while, then took out a silver needle, but did not make any further moves, just looked at Xiao Ji.
"Experiment!" Xiao Ji almost uttered the word through gritted teeth.
Lian Yi shook his head, sighed secretly again, and then inserted the silver needle into the mixed medicinal soup. After a while, when he took it out again, the silver needle was already black...
Although he was prepared in his heart, when he saw the silver needle turn black with his own eyes, Xiao Ji still felt his eyes darken, and his heart sank to the bottom...
"Unexpectedly, one day, my own biological son would actually want my life!" At this moment, there was no trace of anger in Xiao Ji's heart, only endless sadness, and his whole body instantly aged a lot.
He thought of his old rival, Yida Khan Helian Luo of Dihu, the moment he knew that he died at the hands of his own son, how painful he must have been.
Seeing Xiao Ji's appearance, Lian Yi was heartbroken, and immediately knelt on the ground and wept: "The emperor calms down, you must take care of the dragon's body, maybe... maybe His Highness King Qin is just confused..."
"A moment of confusion?" It's okay that Lian Yi didn't say this, but as soon as he said it, Xiao Ji laughed angrily, stood up and slammed the soup in front of him on the ground, "Do you want your own father's life if you are a moment of confusion? ?”
Tianzi Longyan was furious, and Zhang Chu below couldn't stand up, and subconsciously fell to his knees with a plop.
After Xiao Ji stood up, he felt dizzy and dizzy. He took a few deep breaths before he calmed down. He glanced at Zhang Chu who was kneeling below, and asked coldly, "Can Li Jin and Xu Guang still be unable to contact the Qilin Guards?" ?”
Zhang Chu’s forehead suddenly burst into cold sweat. After hesitating for a moment, he could only bite the bullet and say: “The Metropolitan Governor’s Mansion said that they led troops to quell the Qiang rebellion, and the Qiang people have always been hostile to us Han people. I don't enter the Qiang village, so I can't know the movements of Li Jin and Xu Guang for a while... Rest assured, the emperor, I will definitely send more people to contact them as soon as possible."
"Who are we going to send more people? I'm afraid they would have exposed their identities and died a long time ago." Xiao Ji snorted coldly, and then sighed inexplicably.
Zhang Chu's heart became more and more flustered, because Li Jin and Xu Guang had been unable to be contacted. He hadn't doubted whether the two of them had died in Huangquan, but he knew that the only ones who betrayed Wang Cheng secretly and took refuge in the court were the Crown Prince and them. Kirin Guard.
If the identities of Li Xu and Xu are really revealed unfortunately, the emperor and the prince must not have revealed his identity, then the problem can only lie with them Qilinwei.
Zhang Chu knelt on the ground for a long time, and finally had to bow his head deeply: "I'm not strict in my rule, and I deserve death. I must thoroughly investigate Qilin Guard and catch the person who leaked the secret."
Xiao Ji took a look at Zhang Chu, shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with you Qilin Guards. I think that Nizi saw something by himself and told his good father-in-law."
Speaking of this, Xiao Ji's heart once again felt sad, and he laughed at himself unconsciously: "He really deserves to be my good son, and he uses all his intelligence and talents to deal with his father."
Hearing that the matter had nothing to do with the Qilin Guard, Zhang Chu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his face was still full of fear, hesitating for a moment, and then asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, should our Qilin Guard arrest the poisoned emperor right now?" the imperial physician."
Xiao Ji smiled coldly: "They have such a thorough plan, how could they let that imperial doctor survive? If you Qilin Guards go to arrest people now, I'm afraid they will only find a cold corpse."
Zhang Chuyi was also speechless for a moment, he might not have thought of this, but if Qilinwei didn't do anything, wouldn't it appear that Qilinwei was very incompetent.
There was another long silence, and Xiao Ji suddenly burst into laughter for no reason: "Okay, since my son wants my life, I will grant his wish."
Lian Yi and Zhang Chu couldn't help but look at each other, not understanding what the emperor meant.
Xiao Ji didn't say anything more, but his eyes fell on the Chuan Guo Yuxi on the table, and he couldn't help but sighed secretly.
One of his sons had broken his heart, and he hoped his other son wouldn't let him down again.
He had already reported the new prescription, and the other six imperial physicians checked it individually, but found no problems. The pharmacy said that the soup and medicine had been decocted by the emperor.
It was precisely because of this that Zhou Cheng became more and more uneasy. He knew that if the emperor died of poison after drinking the soup, the palace guards would definitely control them as imperial doctors immediately. There is a problem with the prescription he prescribed.
