"Yue'er, how is your uncle?" Mrs. Jiang asked anxiously outside.

Su Lingyue said in a deep voice: "My uncle is still breathing, but the poison is too strong. I haven't found out what the poison is yet."

At this time, Ling Ling had also finished her inspection and saw a teapot on the table. She picked it up and smelled it, then took out the silver hairpin on her head and stirred the teapot.

The hairpin was black when it was taken out.

Everyone understood that the poison was in the teapot.

Ling Ling said: "The skin on the throat is damaged and the silver hairpin is black. It is arsenic."

Su Lingyue took back her hand that was probing Jiang Fu's breath and said, "Not only that, Uncle is breathing rapidly, the whites of his eyes are yellow and his eyelids are slightly swollen, and there is also a poison that is harmful to his liver and kidneys."

Arsenic damages the stomach and intestines, and other poisons damage the liver and kidneys. These are poisons that do not want Jiang Fu to survive at all costs.

But according to the rules, with such a mixture of poisons, Jiang Fu would surely die, so how could he still be alive?

Su Lingyue took a quick look and noticed a small blue and white porcelain vase next to the bloodstains under the table. It looked familiar to him.

Ling Ling noticed her gaze and looked down to see the bloodstains and porcelain bottle under the table.

She picked it up and smelled it, her face showing great joy, "This is an antidote pill. It seems that Lord Jiang realized that he was poisoned and took it at the last moment. Although it can't remove all the poison in his body, it removes a part of it and leaves him a breath."

"Really?" Madam Jiang asked Ling Ling with a happy smile on her face, "What about the master? Can he be saved?"

Ling Ling said: "He is still in danger of death. Several poisons mixed together have damaged many parts of his body. I will write a prescription now. You should hurry up and get the medicine."

"Okay, write it quickly! I'll go get the medicine." Jiang Siqi urged from outside.

The chief clerk was very discerning and brought over pen, ink and paper. Ling Ling picked up the pen and began to write the prescription without any hesitation.

Su Lingyue did not dare to delay and asked Caidie to help him unbutton Jiang Fu's shirt. He began to give Jiang Fu acupuncture to delay the poison from causing further damage to his body.

After Ling Ling finished writing the prescription, she handed it to Jiang Siqi outside the cell.

Jiang Siqi was shocked when he saw the prescription. He didn’t know anything else, but it actually contained centipedes and scorpions!

"Centipedes, scorpions, these are all poisonous!"

Seeing Jiang Siqi questioning her prescription, Ling Ling glared at him angrily and said, "These two herbs have the effects of calming wind and stopping spasms, attacking poison and dispersing knots, and unblocking meridians and relieving pain. In simple terms, have you heard of fighting poison with poison?"

Jiang Siqi nodded, "I've heard of it."

Ling Ling said proudly: "Humph, this is fighting poison with poison, go!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Siqi did not dare to delay and ran out quickly.

While Su Lingyue was thinking about what Doctor Lu had taught her, she began to look for acupuncture points.

Her idea was to block part of the blood flowing to the internal organs before the medicine was boiled to slow down the blood flow, and to bleed from the hands and feet to let the poisonous blood flow out of them.

When Ling Ling came over, she had already blocked most of the meridians, leaving only a part to provide basic blood supply to the internal organs.

When Su Lingyue was giving acupuncture to the arm to promote the flow of poisonous blood there, she saw Ling Ling pick up two silver needles and pierce them directly into the heart meridian.

"What are you doing!"

Su Lingyue was shocked. The heart meridian cannot be needled casually. If you are not careful, it may cause heart disease.

"What's going on?" Mrs. Jiang, who was outside, heard Su Lingyue's voice and stared inside to ask.

"Don't you know that you can't use acupuncture on the heart meridian?" Su Lingyue looked at her angrily and asked, "What do you mean?"

Seeing the anger on Su Lingyue's face, Ling Ling did not panic, but pointed to the location of the two needles and said, "There is a blood vessel directly leading to the heart here. My needle is thicker than usual and is shallower than other needles. It avoids the blood vessel and pierces the muscle next to it. It does not hurt the heart vein, but through the compression of the muscle, it slows down the blood flow in the heart vein, which is more effective in slowing down the invasion of poison into the internal organs."

After Su Lingyue heard what Ling Ling said, she hurriedly checked Jiang Fu's pulse and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that he was fine.

She knew Ling Ling meant well, but was worried that Ling Ling might not be skilled enough and might perform acupuncture recklessly. She didn't expect that she was the one who was not skilled enough.

Su Lingyue looked at Ling Ling with an awkward expression, "I'm sorry, I scolded you in a hurry just now."

Ling Ling raised the corner of her mouth and said, "It doesn't matter. My method is indeed dangerous and not many people use it. Let's move on to the next step!"

Although she looks innocent, she is actually a broad-minded and righteous woman.

Su Lingyue couldn't help but feel a little more favorable towards her.

Before starting the next step, Su Lingyue turned her head to look at Madam Jiang outside the cell and comforted her, "Aunt, Miss Ling Ling's medical skills are better than mine. She just used a method of acupuncture that I have never seen before."

After hearing what Su Lingyue said, Madam Jiang's expression eased a little, and she said to Ling Ling, "Miss Ling, thank you for your help."

Ling Ling nodded and said, "Madam Jiang, Lord Jiang's life is still hanging by a thread. I can only do my best."

Madam Jiang knelt down with a plop and begged, "Please save him. I can't live without him."

Seeing her mother crying again, Jiang Yan squatted down beside Madam Jiang and sobbed, "Mother, let's get up and don't delay the treatment of cousin and sister Ling."

Knowing that what Jiang Yan said made sense, Mrs. Jiang stood up with Jiang Yan's support and only dared to cry quietly.

Su Lingyue took a look at the situation outside the cell. Xiao Yu had been standing for a long time and sweat had begun to appear on his forehead.

Her heart tightened, and she said to the chief clerk, "Sir, could you please move a few stools and bring some food?"

When the chief clerk saw Su Lingyue giving him an order, he hurriedly said respectfully, "It was my negligence. I will bring the stool and food right away."

Su Lingyue smiled at Xiao Yu and continued the treatment.

Ling Ling helped with the last few injections, and the next step was bloodletting.

Ling Ling did not use it. Instead, she took a thicker needle and found the blood vessels in Jiang Fu's arms and legs to bleed him.

The moment the needle pierced, black poisonous blood began to flow out from the needle hole.

Jinluan Geography, Dali Temple Minister Duan Xu and Shaoqing Li Huaizhi stood in the middle of the hall and reported, "Your Majesty, the situation is indeed as Commander Han said. The fire started from the room of the Prince of Xiliang. Lord Zhang, the Minister of Justice, is already investigating the waiters and managers of the inn."

The emperor frowned and asked, "Is the third prince awake?"

Li Huaizhi said: "Not yet, but the jade ring on the body has been identified by others who have seen the eldest prince. It is indeed his. There should be no mistake. The bodies of his guards are also inside."

The emperor rubbed his forehead and said in a deep voice: "Send the experts you trust, and don't let him die no matter who dies."

Li Huaizhi cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured. I will personally guard the Third Prince and will not let anything happen to him."

The emperor waved his hand with satisfaction, signaling them to leave.

The soldiers waited outside the Golden Palace until Duan Xu and Li Huaizhi finally came out, and then they hurried forward to tell them about Jiang Fu's situation.

Duan Xu's heart tightened.

Jiang Fu was the money bag of Daning. If he died in the Dali Temple prison, he would be the first person the emperor would suspect.

His face darkened, and he turned to Li Huaizhi and said, "Sir Li, the Third Prince is relying on you."

Li Huaizhi also understood the seriousness of the matter and said, "Don't worry, sir."

Duan Xu bowed with a sullen face, then turned and walked into the Golden Palace.

The emperor saw Duan Xu coming back after he left, and asked in confusion, "Anything else, Lord Duan?"

Duan Xu told the emperor that Jiang Fu was poisoned in the Dali Temple.

"Damn it!" The emperor slammed the cup to the ground, veins popping out as he shouted angrily, "You're going to rebel!"

Duan Xu knelt heavily and said loudly: "Your Majesty, this matter was definitely not done by the Dali Temple. I will give you an explanation. As a matter of urgency, please send the imperial physician to the Dali Temple prison."

Although the emperor was furious, he also knew what was important and what was not. He immediately ordered Eunuch Wan: "Summon Imperial Physician Zhang to the Dali Temple and tell him to save Jiang Fu at all costs!"

Jiang Fu had been an official for many years, and whenever the national treasury needed money, the Jiang family would never be stingy.

It can be said that the Jiang family is the emperor's purse.

"On the one hand, you want to start a war, and on the other hand, you want to kill my money bag. Your wolfish ambition is obvious!" The emperor looked at Duan Xu who was kneeling in the hall with a sinister look, and said in a deep voice: "Duan Xu, I will give you a task, you go and do it privately."

Duan Xu bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty, please give your orders."
