Shen Yijin didn't expect the emperor to summon her, and when she followed Uncle Yang's footsteps towards the study, she couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, not knowing why the emperor summoned herself.

Walking outside the study, Shen Yijin took a deep breath, and only after getting permission, opened the door and entered.

After entering the study, Shen Yijin raised her head, and saw the young emperor sitting upright behind the desk, touching the emperor's majestic eyes, he knelt down and saluted without saying a word: "Shen Yijin, a grassroots man, greets Your Majesty."

Zhao Yin nodded slightly, and said softly: "Excuse me, get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Yijin stood up, and straightened the folds of her clothes again.

Zhao Yin looked at Shen Yijin, saw that his attitude was humble, respectful and polite, without any timidity, he was very satisfied, and said: "I am going out of the palace in a low suit today, you don't need to be cautious, just sit down first." After finishing speaking, he said He raised his finger and pointed to the empty seat beside Shi Nanyue.

Shen Yijin walked over and sat down as she said.

After sitting down, he glanced at Shi Nanyue next to him again, with a puzzled expression.

Shi Nanyue smiled softly at him, and said again: "Xiao Jin, do you still remember 'Hundred Dreams'?"

"'Hundred Dreams'?" Shen Yijin was stunned for a moment, then nodded after realizing the reaction: "I remember, but it is a kind of poison, why do you ask about it?"

Before suppressing bandits in the south of the Yangtze River, the medicine he asked for from old man Lin contained this kind of poison, but old man Lin didn't distribute it to him.

Seeing that Shen Yijin really knew, Zhao Yin's eyes flashed with excitement, and he was anxious, so he didn't beat around the bush, and went straight to the point: "Shen Yijin, I came to ask you about this poison-drug. Nan Yue told me that you knew the person who first prepared this poison, is this true?"

After listening to the words, Shen Yijin was even more puzzled, but he believed that Shi Nanyue would not harm him, nor would he harm old man Lin, so he nodded and replied: "What General Shi said is true, Caomin does know him, he His surname is Lin, and he is also a relative of Caomin." After a pause, he hesitated and asked one more question: "Why does Your Majesty ask about this?"

Zhao Yin was silent for a while, then glanced at Shi Nanyue and Bai Su again, seeing that they nodded to him, he stopped hiding, and said bluntly: "I need him to detoxify a person, can you let him come to the capital?"

Shen Yijin thought for a while, and agreed, "Yes."

Zhao Yin was overjoyed, and said again: "Then where is he now? You write a letter, and I will immediately send someone to find him and come to the capital."

Shen Yijin said truthfully: "He is in Hangzhou, Taoyuan Village."

Hearing this, Zhao Yin's complexion changed, all the original joy dissipated, and turned into extreme grief and unconcealable despair.

The distance is too far...

From Hangzhou to the capital, even if you continue to drive day and night, it will take at least a month, not to mention that it will take time to send the letter to Hangzhou, but according to Yunxi's current situation, she can't last that long at all. next month.

There is only one month, how can we make it in time?

Looking at Zhao Yin's expression, Shen Yijin suddenly remembered what she had read in the book, and couldn't help frowning, with a serious expression on her face.

The medical book said, "Hundred Dreams" is a strange poison, which is different from ordinary poisons, just like its name. Anyone who has been infected with "Hundred Dreams" will fall into a dream and cannot wake up. There are nightmares and sweet dreams, torturing the poisoned person repeatedly, until the poisoned person's life is exhausted and he dies in the dream before he can be relieved.

And this process, the longest will not exceed ten days.

... If it's only ten days, I can't wait for Old Man Lin to arrive in the capital.

How to do?

Shi Nanyue stretched out his hand, patted the back of Shen Yijin's hand, brought him back to his senses, and asked him in a warm voice: "Xiao Jin, have you ever read in Dr. Lin's book which medicine can delay the onset of 'Hundred Dreams'?" time?"

Shen Yijin thought about it for a while, then shook her head.

After being silent for a moment, Shen Yijin suddenly remembered something, and immediately said: "By the way, I took all the medical books that the old man gave me. There may be records in them. I'll go and have a look."

After hearing this, Zhao Yin's eyes lit up again, with a little expectation, he looked at Shen Yijin, and said eagerly: "Go and get it quickly."

"Yes." Shen Yijin stood up and saluted, then left the study and quickly went to the bedroom.

Shen Yijin didn't dare to make Zhao Yin wait, so she ran quickly all the way. Fortunately, the bedroom was not far from the study, so she wouldn't be too tired, so within a short time, he returned to the study with a few medical books .

Putting down the medical book, Shen Yijin picked up one from it, flipped to a position according to memory, and said to Zhao Yin: "Your Majesty, this page records 'Hundred Dreams', but..."

"Hurry up and show me." Before Shen Yijin finished speaking, Zhao Yin interrupted him, got up impatiently, walked to Shen Yijin quickly, took the book from his hand, and then looked down. .

In fact, there are not many records about 'Hundred Dreams' in this medical book. It is only a short page. It does not mention any medicines that can delay the onset or detoxify. Zhao Yin read it quickly .

He frowned tightly. After putting down the book, he picked up another one. He was probably nervous, and his hand holding the book was still trembling.

Shen Yijin gave the remaining few books to Shi Nanyue, Bai Su and Feng Bai respectively, and then she took one and started to read it.

What he was holding was what Old Man Lin asked him to hand over to He Zhang.

Different from other medical books, the one held by Shen Yijin recorded the preparation methods and solutions of various poisons and medicines in the world. He quickly read it from the beginning to the end, and finally found "Hundred Dreams" when he turned to the end. It's just that old man Lin seems to have done it on purpose, and he has crossed out several medicinal ingredients in the recipe, so he can't see it clearly at all. Moreover, there is no detoxification method.

Shen Yijin handed the medical book to Zhao Yin: "Your Majesty, there is also mention of 'Hundred Dreams' here, but...the detoxification method is not written either."

At the same time, Shi Nanyue and the others shook their heads together and closed the medical book in hand.

—There is no record in any of these books.

Seeing this, Zhao Yin's face turned pale, he lowered his head, squeezed the medical book tightly in his hand, after a while, let go of his hand, and returned the book to Shen Yijin.

After returning to the desk and sitting down, Zhao Yin closed his eyes to hide the grief and sadness in his eyes, and when he opened them again, he had suppressed all the desperate emotions and restored the majesty of the original emperor.

After glancing at Shen Yijin, Zhao Yin said calmly: "Go down and write the letter, I will send someone to get it for you later."

Shen Yijin bowed in salute, and said respectfully: "Yes, the grassroots leave."

After Shen Yijin left, Zhao Yincai turned his attention to Shi Nanyue again, and asked Shi Nanyue about King Yu in a deep voice.

Upon hearing the words, Shi Nanyue told Zhao Yin one by one what King Yu said today, but omitted Lin Yan's part.

Zhao Yin pondered for a while after listening, and said, "Nan Yue, do you think this statement is credible?"

Shi Nanyue nodded: "My minister thinks it's credible."

"Oh?" Zhao Yin looked at him, waiting for his next words.

After Shi Nanyue poured himself a cup of tea and drank it, he continued: "On the way back to the mansion, I thought about it carefully and found that Prince Yu had already expressed his attitude to His Majesty a long time ago. Tai Kuo took the wrong side of the sword and repeatedly turned things upside down, seemingly disregarding both sides and not pleasing anyone at all."

"However, if you analyze and identify carefully, you will find that the direct beneficiary after he has done those things is His Majesty, and those powerful ministers will always lose something, whether it is reputation or the officials installed. Over the past few years, they have never benefited from any cases that have passed through the hands of the prince, but you, Your Majesty, have replaced many of their confidantes."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yin saw Shi Nanyue's determined expression, and carefully recalled several major cases handled by the King of Yu in recent years. After careful analysis, he found that it was indeed as Shi Nanyue said, that the one who benefited in the end was himself , It's just that these cases are too beautifully handled. If you don't sort out and identify them bit by bit, from the surface, you can't find them at all.

That's why he never noticed it.

Finally realizing that King Yu has never opposed him, Zhao Yin finally let go of his heart, he said: "If that's the case, I no longer need to guard against Uncle Huang."

A trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, he turned the teacup over, put it on the table, and said coldly: "Nan Yue, the previous plan can start."
