Chapter 76
After returning to the imperial city, Yingying's situation did not improve.
Although Qin Rong knew medicine, he was not absolutely proficient in it. When he returned to the palace, Qin Rong sent the old imperial doctor from the palace to come and see it. He realized that Yingying's illness was not simple, but had taken unclean things.
"Is something unclean?" In the Eastern Palace, Qin Rong sat beside the couch and held Yingying's hand.
For several days, Yingying was unconscious even after being cold and hot. The troubles these days made her body look more and more delicate. She was lying in a small ball in the soft golden silk quilt. Her little face, which was a little fat, became the size of a palm, and she was breathing heavily with her eyes closed tightly.
Finally, he could change his bloody clothes. At this time, Qin Rong wore a frosty white python robe, and his ink hair was scattered behind him and sat sideways. His eyes did not fall on Yingying's face for a moment. He pinched Yingying's little hand and asked quietly: "What is an unclean thing?"
The old imperial doctor explained: "There are tens of thousands of herbs in the world, most of which are earthly prescriptions that are not recorded in medical books, but are circulated among the people. Did Your Highness ask the Empress to take something unknown recently?"
"Either an ordinary grass or a fruit you've never seen before, they are poisonous and sexual, and those who accidentally eat it may cause a series of symptoms."
Simply put, Yingying was "poisoned" after eating an unknown thing.
Qin Rong pondered for a while and said everything they had taken before. No matter how he said that, he knew medical skills. The herbs that Yingying had eaten at the bottom of the cliff would never have any problems. And they were eating the dry food that the thin man gave them. If they received Prince Qing's order to kill Yingying, there was no need to be so hard, so they could kill her with one sword.
Only...
Qin Rong remembered that he had drunk the porridge at Widow Wang's house for several days. Yingying had problems after taking the bowl of porridge. She frowned and Qin Rong denied, "I have also drunk that porridge, why didn't I get poisoned?"
The imperial physician replied truthfully: "Your Highness has been in contact with herbs since childhood, and his body has a certain resistance to drugs. In addition, your Highness has taken the lover's slander before, and the blood has a poison-removing effect, so nothing happened."
Yingying was not very comfortable when the wind blew at that time, and the lover in her body was not a detoxification prescription, so she naturally couldn't stand the bowl of "added ingredients".
"They are really brave." After hearing the imperial physician's explanation, Qin Rong narrowed his eyes and stood up from the couch.
Because the things Yingying consumed are unknown, the old imperial doctor did not dare to prescribe medicine for Yingying easily for a while. Qin Rong had just returned to the palace and had accumulated too many things to deal with. Even so, he went out to the palace in person. He was worried that Yingying would be left alone in the East Palace, so he simply took Yingying out with him, and the one who went to the Widow Zhang's house where they had come out from the cliff to live.
Late at night, carriages were walking on the streets and wheels were rolling.
The luxurious and spacious carriage was covered with a heavy windscreen. The inside of the car was lying on the couch and Yingying was lying in his arms. He held his forehead and closed his eyes while sleeping. Outside the window, the two cavalry were neatly arranged, and there were only the sound of clattering footsteps left.
When the carriage was parked at the door of Widow Wang's house, Widow Wang and her youngest daughter Fangmei were packing things in the house.
After selling everything that can be sold and packing everything, Fangmei refused to let go, "Mom, do we have to leave?"
She still had a trace of fantasy in her heart, and always felt that Mr. Rong would come to find her again. At that time, behind him was a dark imperial guard. He walked up to her and held her hand and said that he would take her into the palace. Since then, she has been glorious and favored, which has made others envious.
Although Fangmei didn't know what Mr. Rong was, through the situation that day, she knew that Mr. Rong was an amazing figure in the palace.
Seeing that she was still in a daze, Widow Wang hurriedly packed her bag and scolded a few times: "Why do you still want to stay here? Are you still dead if you don't leave?"
"Sister Fang, wake up your mother!" Seeing that her daughter was still obsessed, Widow Wang poked her head hard and reminded: "Didn't you hear that group of people call that 'Your Highness'? You should have a bottom line in your dreams."
"Your Highness..." Fangmei's eyes lit up, and she murmured with her fingers: "If this is true, Fangmei is willing to be the maid next to her."
Widow Wang was too lazy to persuade her anymore, as if she had given up on Fangmei and had tidied up her clothes alone.
The world is dangerous, how could Fangmei know how much Widow Wang paid for her? She, a widow, worked hard to raise the child to find a good marriage for her daughter. Is it really kind to let Qin and let them in that day?
...No, she purely took the identity of the young master of Qinrong's rich family.
From the beginning, Widow Wang was plotting against Qin Rong. She saw that Qin Rong was good at speaking and be considerate to the so-called wife. She thought that he would love others, and that gentleness and kindness seemed easy to control.
It's just a wife. You can marry again when you die. If you have another girl accompany you when you are sad, the man will soon forget the pain of losing his wife.
Widow Wang had a bad idea one after another. In fact, she not only did things in Yingying's porridge, but also in Qinrong's porridge. She thought that Yingying died of illness. If Qinrong fell ill at this time, she could take the opportunity to let Fangmei take care of her. After a while, Qinrong would remember her kindness even if she had no affection for Fangmei. Then she would ask for some requests when she started to speak up. How could Qinrong not agree?
"Okay, hurry up and carry a bag and leave with me!" Widow Wang was in a very upset heart.
She made the best decision at the beginning and now she collapsed so thoroughly. She was blamed for taking a look. She thought that person was a gentle and easy to grasp. Who knew that she had no idea that she could have such a high status and was in a high position. How many of them were sucked by people?
If he could recall it, his wife's illness was because she had done something in the porridge...
Widow Wang didn't dare to think about it anymore, and grabbed Fangmei who had taken her step, clenched her hand and urged: "Go away quickly, we must leave here soon!"
squeak--
As she said that, Widow Wang pushed open the wooden door. She wanted to escape at night, but when the door opened, the lights were on outside.
Countless cavalry surrounded her small courtyard, and the luxurious carriage in the center of the cavalry stood there quietly, with two lanterns hanging on the carriage, and a faint white light was shining under the night.
"Catch it!" With the order from Youyang, the iron cavalry on both sides dismounted and captured Widow Wang and Fangmei.
Widow Wang was so scared that her legs were trembling and she knelt on the ground. Fangmei looked a little excited and stared at the carriage. You Yang was too lazy to talk nonsense to them. Knowing that his master was in a bad mood at this time, he said directly: "Support the antidote!"
"What's the antidote?" Widow Wang had many bad ideas but was also unaware of it. Now she was scared by You Yang and made the most wrong decision. She always felt that as long as she was beaten to death, she would be safe.
Village women are difficult to deal with, and it is even more difficult to deal with if such people are a scoundrel.
Youyang is a good at killing people, but when faced with such a person who cannot be beaten and killed, he really didn't know what to do. But after saying a few words, the woman began to thrust and act crazy, probably because she felt that Youyang didn't dare to do anything to her. After she had the confidence, she started shouting loudly.
"I'm slandering! The officials are going to be beaten up and Is there any other way to the king?"
"Where is the law of heaven? What is the law of heaven?" Widow Wang had obviously made a mistake once, but now she has not admitted her mistake honestly and has made a bad idea again.
Her eyes turned, and when the big scene in front of her house really attracted the neighbors around her, she began to tear her daughter over and cry: "We are a poor person who is orphans and widows, kindly takes in someone for the night, but she didn't expect to cause such a big deal."
"My lord in the carriage, you can take the life of the civilian woman, but please spare the poor daughter of the civilian woman!"
Her voice became taller and sharper, as if she deliberately let the villagers around her listen: "Did you forget that night? Without mentioning the reason, the adults can see all the innocent daughter..."
As the surrounding villagers gathered more and more, this matter became more and more difficult. If the antidote had not been obtained, You Yang would have sealed the stupid woman's mouth with one sword.
"Stop them!"
Youyang ordered the cavalry around to stop the villagers who were trying to get close to him, and his eyes fell to the carriage. He was about to pull the widow Wang into the house and block her mouth. The curtain on the carriage shook slightly, and a slender hand lifted the curtain.
"Shh-" It was cold at night. Qin Rong did not change the python robe, but only covered her black gold robe.
Stepping forward to Widow Wang, he drifted his sleeves and pulled out the sword in his right hand. The slow movement was accompanied by a squeaking sound. Qin Rong held the sword and pressed the tip of the sword against Widow Wang's mouth. His tone was light and gentle: "Give it a small voice, you have arguing with the lonely Yingying."
……solitary?!
The tip of the sword was pressed against Widow Wang's mouth, and the sharp blade cut blood on her trembling lips. Widow Wang's eyes were wide open. She looked at the handsome man in front of her and lost her voice for a moment. Qin Rong curled her lips and said softly: "I'll give you another last chance, hand over the prescription."
Some folk remedies are not passed down from outside, but are passed down from generation to generation only their own family knows.
It was much cleaner and direct than the right Yang. Qin Rong's hand holding the hilt of the sword was slightly rotated and opened a hole in the mouth of Widow Wang. The aura of the superior was undoubtedly revealed, and Qin Rong Pinghe seemed to be talking to others again; "You have to think it through before you can say it. If the words said make Gu dissatisfied, Gu Ke will continue this sword into your mouth."
Little by little, the sword body penetrated her mouth and penetrated her belly, and when pulled out, it would definitely be covered with a layer of sticky blood.
Thinking of this, Qin Rong's eyes were deeply inserted into Widow Wang's mouth. The cold sword body collided with her teeth and made a clattering sound. At this time, Widow Wang's mouth was full of blood. Fangmei saw it and screamed at her, and wanted to get close, but was stopped.
"Let me go, you let me go!" Although Fangmei had thoughts about Qin Rong, she was not aware of what her mother did.
Widow Wang didn't know clearly what big trouble she had caused until now. Seeing that Qin Rong was reluctant to pull out the sword, she could only endure the severe pain and speak: "I, I said, I said everything!"
Every time she said a word, the more blood gathered in Widow Wang's mouth. Later, she felt numb and lost the pain in her mouth, and she couldn't speak clearly.
"This, this is no prescription." Widow Wang took out the local folk remedy passed down from her ancestors from her arms. Her family's leak was what she killed. The government investigated for two days without any results. In the end, the case was closed and she died of illness.
Qin Rong took the prescription and looked at it carefully before putting it close to her body. The sword in her hand was inserted into the right scabbard. Qin Rong turned around and left without even looking at Fangmei.
"Mom!" Fangmei heard everything Qin Rong said just now, and was so scared that she had no thoughts on him.
You Yang looked at the bloody Widow Wang and the crying Fangmei, and said, "Your Highness."
"What should these two people do?"
Qin Rong didn't look back and said, "Closed it first, and deal with it when Yingying wakes up."
He said earlier that there had been no kindness between him and Widow Wang, but unfortunately she kept trying to die. She wiped her fingers with a veil, and Qin Rong said to Youyang before getting on the carriage: "Your recent affairs have made the orphan very unsatisfied."
Youyang's face turned pale and he immediately knelt down.
“…”
Widow Wang did not deceive Qin Rong anymore. After the old imperial doctor prepared medicine according to Widow Wang's prescription, Yingying's condition quickly improved after drinking it.
The old imperial doctor took the prescription and was amazed: "The green leaves and bamboo fallen teeth have not been recorded in medical books and have no medicinal properties. I didn't expect that eating too much together would kill people. The most surprising thing was that their poison could only be detoxified by a few bowls of salted water for a long time."
Qin Rong stood by the window and remained silent. When there was any movement on the couch, he turned around and walked towards the couch. Seeing this, the old imperial doctor hurriedly went forward to take the pulse, and then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Your Highness, the empress is fine."
When Yingying opened her eyes, she wanted to see the exquisite tent hanging on the roof. She was soft and weak all over and could not exert any strength. She blinked and looked at Qin Rong who was sitting next to the couch, and asked in a weak voice: "Where is this?"
Qin Rong lifted the broken hair on her cheeks and helped her cover the brocade quilt and said, "East Palace."
"Yingying, we are back."
"Come back?"
Yingying recovered some strength. She thought of getting up and being helped up by Qin Rong. She leaned against Qin Rong's arms and looked at the decorations in the bedroom. Yingying wanted to laugh but coughed: "I didn't expect that I slept for a while and went straight back to the East Palace."
No longer as uncomfortable as before, Yingying had been washed by Qin Rong, and she had already changed into a comfortable and light bedding. Yingying recovered some strength and grabbed Qin Rong's hand and shook it, "Third brother, I'm not dreaming, are you, you pinch me!"
Qin Rong finally smiled as Yingying's sweet tone, and invisibly tightened Yingying a little. Qin Rong held the back of Yingying's head and bit her lips gently, pressed against her lips and asked, "...Have you woke up from the dream?"
The lips were itchy and numb, but he didn't agree. Yingying licked her lips and was not satisfied. She didn't start by really wanting to know if she was dreaming, and complained in a low voice: "Brother Third, you pinched too lightly, you should have a heavier force."
Raising his arm, Yingying was about to pinch her cheek. Qin Rong saw through her thoughts and brushed her hand off, and then bit Yingying's lips slightly: "Higher?"
He hugged her and laughed softly, Qin Rong whispered vaguely: "How can the third brother bear to bear it?"
He waited for a long time before he woke Yingying up.
Yingying snorted and refused to take his tricks. Why did she let him pinch her hard at that time but she just bullied her more and more?
Still knowing that she was not dreaming, Yingying didn't say what she was in her heart. When Chuchu woke up, she was too hungry and let Qin Rong pass on the meal. She was about to let Qin Rong eat some with her. Zuo Zhu knocked on the door outside: "Your Highness, Lord Gu, please see me."
