Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge
Chapter 409: Jingji Army's Big Move
"What? How is this possible? Didn't we change the prescription?" Eunuch Cheng Ping asked in horror.
The bedroom suddenly became dead silent, no one dared to speak. Eunuch Cheng Ping also looked with difficulty at the emperor lying on the bed with his eyes closed.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please don't scare me..."
"Okay, look how nervous you are. I was just a little angry just now, but I feel much better now."
Thinking of the emperor's dry voice, Eunuch Chengping felt much more at ease.
When Doctor Li saw that the emperor was in a slightly better mood, he quickly took out a small bottle from his medicine box, poured out two small red pills, and gave them to Eunuch Chengping, asking him to help the emperor drink them.
"Your Majesty, since we don't know what poison you have been poisoned by, we don't know what antidote to use for the time being. However, this is the antidote pill passed down by my ancestors. It can cure all kinds of poisons. Please take it first to relieve the toxicity."
The emperor nodded, and Eunuch Chengping brought hot water, helped the emperor sit up, and drank the two pills.
"Doctor Li, please take a close look to see if there is anything wrong with the items in the Palace of Heavenly Purity and the Imperial Study. Oh, and also my meals. Please do it quietly."
The emperor then opened his eyes and looked at Doctor Li. This was the person Li Junhao had identified and someone he could trust completely, so he said to him without reservation, "If you find anything wrong, don't make it public. Go."
"Yes." Doctor Li agreed and then stood up from the ground trembling.
It's no wonder that he was afraid. He had never been involved in the emperor's health condition. But when he took the emperor's pulse today, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
Eunuch Chengping appointed a eunuch supervisor to take Doctor Li out quickly.
"Your Majesty, do you suspect that someone has used something inappropriate around you?"
When Eunuch Chengping saw that they had all gone out, he carefully asked the emperor.
The emperor shook his head. They were already on guard, but they didn't expect to fall into Wang Zhuo's trap.
"He definitely wouldn't just let Imperial Physician Zhang do the trick. He must have done several things at the same time. We were careless and thought we had found the medicine, so we let our guard down. Ahem..."
The emperor's words made Eunuch Chengping want to slap himself twice. Why didn't he think of this possibility in advance, and why did such a thing happen?
"Your Majesty, how are you now?" Eunuch Chengping asked worriedly.
"Go and call Concubine Yu over. I want to see her." The emperor's tone stabilized and he didn't speak as emotionally as before, but Eunuch Chengping still understood what the emperor wanted to do.
"Yes, I will go and summon him right away." He answered, then turned and left the bedroom, going out to make arrangements.
The emperor on the bed stared blankly at the beams above his head, "Father, is this the retribution you told me about? I got something that doesn't belong to me, so do I deserve to be treated like this?"
When Wang Zhuo heard in the Bachelor's Mansion that Li Junhao had surrounded the Third Prince's Mansion and had captured almost everyone in the mansion, he was so shocked that the teacup in his hand fell to the ground.
"What? General Zhenbei?" Wang Zhuo's hands began to tremble uncontrollably and he couldn't stop no matter how hard he tried.
General Zhenbei? Yanbei? What does Li Junhao want to do?
Why would he give up the crown prince's position and go against me? Or have they learned about the unusual behavior of Li Xingxian, the Prince of Yan?
Ji Ping was also very anxious at this time. There was another piece of news that he didn't dare to tell Wang Zhuo directly.
"When did this happen? Why haven't we heard any news about it?" Wang Zhuo was a little confused. What exactly did they want to do?
Ji Ping was also very confused. The crown prince of a country was changed just like that. No matter how he thought about it, there was something wrong.
"I just heard about it a moment ago, but the news from the palace is that the emperor's decree just issued may be sent to the various prefectures later."
"Hurry, go find Ze'er and Zhi'er and ask them to come to the mansion immediately." Wang Zhuo couldn't stand up again. He could already feel waves of pain in his legs.
"Master, this..." Ji Ping looked at Wang Zhuo with some embarrassment. He didn't know how to start the next sentence.
"What's going on? Why don't you go quickly?" Wang Zhuo had only heard him talk about Li Junhao besieging the Third Prince's mansion, but he didn't know that Li Junze was not in the mansion at that time.
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince should have entered the palace by now and has not returned yet." Wang Zhuo avoided eye contact and said hesitantly.
"Where's Sun Xingzhi? Then let's find him first." Wang Zhuo had already sensed something was wrong. Seeing that Ji Ping and Hu Ziping did not move, he slammed the table angrily and shouted,
"Tell us what else happened, don't waste our time."
His words made Ji Ping determined, and he still spoke out everything,
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince has arranged for people to go out of the city to kill the Jingji Army's sergeants who were responsible for escorting our captured soldiers. The more than 200 people that Sun Tanhua was responsible for contacting were also arranged by His Royal Highness the Third Prince."
"When did this happen? Why didn't Ze'er tell me a word?" Wang Zhuo still didn't quite believe the truth of these words.
Ji Ping said helplessly, "We didn't receive any news either. We only found out after we heard that there was a big movement in the Jingji Army.
All the people in charge of the Third Prince's mansion have been captured by the Second Prince, and now the only ones left are the guards and servants."
With a "thump", Wang Zhuo sat down on the chair. Due to the force, the chair legs and the ground made a harsh "squeaking" sound.
"What kind of big commotion is happening over at the Jingji Army?" Wang Zhuo continued to ask.
Ji Ping did not speak this time, but Hu Ziping answered.
He said, "The Jingji Army responsible for escorting the 700-plus people only had 100 people in total. But when the people sent by His Majesty the Third Prince showed up, they discovered that the 700-plus people were also Jingji Army.
So, so, they were all captured alive, including Sun Tanhua."
"No, no, no, this is impossible. Zhier has always been the most obedient. He would never make his own decisions on such a matter. It must be a misunderstanding. It must be..."
Before Wang Zhuo could finish his words, he felt dizzy, as if all the strength in his body had been drained away, and he collapsed.
Fortunately, Hu Ziping was quick-witted and rushed over to hold up his sliding body in time.
"No, no, I'm fine. Please help me go to the Third Prince's Mansion. I want to wait for Ze'er to come back. Quickly..."
Wang Zhuo closed his eyes in pain, but continued to give orders.
