Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

Emperor Jingzhang was lying on the dragon bed with his eyes closed, a thin blanket covering his body, his chest rising and falling slightly, and he lay there quietly, like an old man who was running out of energy and waiting for the moment of death.

Zhang Desheng didn't know why, but his stomach felt very uncomfortable, as if he had eaten something bad, but the emperor couldn't leave him alone, so he had to endure it.

However, my stomach hurt more and more, my face turned pale, and cold sweat oozed from my forehead.

He sent his godson Chunkui to the imperial kitchen early in the morning to prepare snacks for the emperor, and he has not returned since.

Just when Zhang Desheng was suffering, Doctor Fang came in carrying a medicine box.

However, he did not seem to notice Zhang Desheng's abnormality and went forward to examine Emperor Jingzhang's body.

While prying open Emperor Jingzhang's eyelids to observe him, he asked, "Eunuch Zhang, how many hours was the emperor awake today? How much breakfast did he eat?"

"Fang, Doctor Fang, the Emperor..."

Doctor Fang seemed to have just realized that something was wrong with Zhang Desheng, and hurriedly turned around to support him: "Eunuch Zhang, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad? Your voice is shaking, are you feeling unwell?"

As he said this, he put his hand on Zhang Desheng's pulse.

Zhang Desheng covered his stomach and said, "I don't know why, but I felt uncomfortable in my stomach when I woke up this morning. I could bear it before, but now it's getting worse and worse."

"Eunuch Zhang, you have evil spirits entering your body, your pulse is rapid, and you have an upset stomach. I'll prescribe you a dose of medicine, have someone boil it, and drink a dose of it."

"Hello, Doctor Fang. Oh, no, I, I have to go to the toilet."

"Go quickly, someone, help Eunuch Zhang go."

"But..." Zhang Desheng glanced at Emperor Jingzhang on the dragon bed, "The emperor can't leave me."

"Eunuch Zhang, don't worry. I'll stay with you until you come back."

Another round of cramps came, and the young eunuch at the door came over to support him. Zhang Desheng could not bear it any longer, so he bowed to Doctor Fang and quickly ran to the courtesy room.

Doctor Fang quickly glanced around and seeing no one was around, he immediately took out a silver needle and inserted a few needles into several acupuncture points on the top of Emperor Jingzhang's head.

Emperor Jingzhang made a gurgling sound in his throat and slowly opened his eyes.

Doctor Fang's heart was beating like a drum. He leaned over and quickly said in Emperor Jingzhang's ear: "Your Majesty, please don't make any sound. Time is urgent. I will be brief. Eunuch Zhang and the eunuchs in this palace are all under the control of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Emperor Jingzhang looked at Doctor Fang in shock.

"The medicine you've been taking these days is still the elixir made by that poisonous master, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has had someone tamper with the elixir. If you take it for a long time, you'll be hanging on to your last breath, lying in bed, and never waking up again until the day you run out of energy."

No one knew when this day would come, so the prince not only fed the emperor poison, but also gave him ginseng soup to keep him alive.

The process is long and painful.

Or one year, two years, five years, or even ten years.

Until the poison corrodes his internal organs and he dies in torture.

Doctor Fang looked behind him and saw two young eunuchs guarding the door, looking over here, but because they were far away, they could only see Doctor Fang treating the Emperor but could not hear his voice.

"This process will be extremely long and difficult. Your Majesty, I have wrapped a layer of cloth over the medicine. When you swallow it, don't swallow it too deeply. Once they leave, use your fingers to dig it out immediately. Remember, you must never take this medicine again."

When Doctor Fang said this, his voice was choked with sobs.

"I have no choice. The prince has captured my grandson and forced me to do this. If one day, I only ask the emperor to release my family. I will leave it to you to deal with."

Emperor Jingzhang's eyes, like those of dead fish, were filled with raging rage. He wanted to explode, but only a whirring sound like a broken bellows could come out of his throat.

Chest rises and falls sharply.

"Your Majesty, you can drink the medicine I prescribed. I have added some medicine to make you look like you are asleep, but you are actually conscious and can hear their conversation clearly."

It would also be good to truly understand what kind of vicious heart this prince, who appears to be as gentle as jade and treats others with humility and courtesy, actually has.

"The Fifth Prince came several times, but was always turned away by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Your Majesty..."

The palace door opened at this time, and the moment the dazzling sunlight came in, Doctor Fang had quickly retreated away from Emperor Jingzhang, pulled out the silver needle on his head, and stuffed it into the small cloth bag in his sleeve.

The moment the silver needle left, Emperor Jingzhang fell into coma again.

Zhang Desheng came in holding his stomach, and the first thing he saw was Emperor Jingzhang lying on the bed. He felt relieved to see that he was still the same as he had just left.

"Doctor Fang, the Emperor..."

"Alas..." Doctor Fang sighed deeply, "The emperor has been poisoned too badly by the elixir. If he doesn't get better in a year or two, I'm afraid. Eunuch Zhang, you've been guarding the emperor day and night. Thank you for your hard work."

Zhang Desheng smiled and waved his hand, then took a fine jade Guanyin from the side and put it into Doctor Fang's hand: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that Doctor Fang has worked very hard for the Emperor's health. This is for you."

"How can this be possible? As an imperial physician, this is what I should do."

Zhang Desheng smiled and stuffed the thing into Doctor Fang's hand: "It's a reward from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Doctor Fang had no choice but to take it and put it at the bottom of the medicine box.

After Doctor Fang left, Zhang Desheng hurried forward to check on Emperor Jingzhang.

Seeing that he was still the same as before, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Not long after, Zhang Desheng's godson, Chunkui came in with the boiled medicine.

"Godfather, drink it while it's hot."

Zhang Desheng stuffed the prescription into Chunkui's hands and took off a badge from his waist: "Go out of the palace tomorrow and find a small pharmacy to ask what this medicine is used for."

Chun Kui was startled and snatched the medicine from Zhang Desheng's hand: "Godfather, you, you suspect that Doctor Fang put something in your medicine..."

He lowered his voice: "Poison?"

Zhang Desheng snatched the medicine and said, "What are you thinking, you damn kid? I just asked you to ask what this medicine is used for. Doctor Fang will not poison your godfather, don't worry."

Chun Kui gently patted his back and said, "That's good, godfather. Doctor Fang is the head of the Imperial Hospital. If you drink his medicine, I'm sure your illness will be cured."

Zhang Desheng chuckled twice and drank the bowl of medicine one gulp at a time.

It is better to be young and simple. Otherwise, if you stay in this evil den of cannibalism for too long, you can no longer be called a human being.

……

In the evening, Shu Wenbo secretly sent Hongshuang to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

Her left arm was cut off when she killed Sipo. Although the bone had been set, it was still hanging in front of her chest and her complexion had not yet recovered.

"Little sister, Brother Nine asked me to send Hong Shuang to you. Ling Heng has been searching very closely for the murderer who killed Si Po these days. Jia Cheng and Mo Lin are fine, as men are easier to hide, but Hong Shuang is a woman."
