Chapter 726: Imminent

The child did not struggle much at the beginning of the attack, so Doctor Su took the opportunity to take the pulse of the five or six-year-old child.

Soon, the woman brought a box of medicine, took out a black pill from it and handed it to Zhao Duan.

Zhao Duan took the medicine and was about to feed the child, but was stopped by Wei Qing.

"Although this medicine can relieve the child's pain, it is actually a poison. The more he takes it, the more dependent he will become. The poison will also erode his body and make him weaker. Are you sure you want to give it to him?" Wei Qing asked.

Zhao Duan hesitated for a moment and looked at the pill in his hand. How could he not know that there was something wrong with this medicine?

However, if Cong'er didn't take the medicine, he wouldn't be able to bear it at all. It was too painful.

The child also knew that he would feel better after taking the medicine, so he looked at Zhao Duan eagerly.

"Dad, I want to take medicine... give me medicine..." The child's tender voice was filled with pleading.

Zhao Duan immediately pushed Wei Qing and Doctor Su away and fed the medicine into the child's mouth.

After the child took the medicine, his condition improved a lot.

Zhao Duan picked up the child and put him on the bed. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the child's face was no longer in pain.

However, after a moment, the child's face suddenly turned extremely pale and his body began to twitch uncontrollably.

The convulsions became more and more severe, and his head and feet were hunched together, forming a strange posture.

The woman was startled: "Cong'er!"

Zhao Duan was also frightened and called out worriedly, "Cong'er!"

The child's convulsions became more and more severe, and his breathing became weaker and weaker. If this continues, I'm afraid...

"I'll ask the servants to call a doctor!" Zhao Duan said.

Because he didn't want the servants to see Cong'er's appearance when he was sick, Zhao Duan issued an order that the servants were not allowed to step into the room without the master's order.

This is also the reason why no one came in despite the loud noise just now.

Wei Qing and Doctor Su looked at each other, and Doctor Su nodded.

Doctor Su nodded, which meant that he was somewhat confident that he could control the child's convulsions.

If Doctor Su shook his head, Wei Qing would immediately grab Doctor Su and run away.

Wei Qing stopped Zhao Duan from calling for the servants and said, "Can the doctor you found cure your son? His condition is very serious and there is no time to waste. He needs immediate treatment. Let Doctor Su try."

Mrs. Zhao looked at her son in such a state, feeling at a loss. She grabbed Zhao Duan's sleeve and said, "My dear, let this doctor try."

Only then did Zhao Duan nod.

Doctor Su had just opened his medicine box and taken out his set of silver needles.

Zhao Duan nodded and he immediately went over with the silver needle.

The patient was convulsing violently.

"Help me hold the patient down." Doctor Su said.

Wei Qing and Zhao Duan hurried over and held the child's hands and feet respectively.

Doctor Su quickly found the acupuncture point and began to give acupuncture.

Zhao Duan observed Doctor Su. He was very calm and his acupuncture movements were very skillful. It was obvious that he was an experienced doctor.

Mrs. Zhao looked at the child with worried eyes, hoping that he would survive and nothing would happen to him.

As Dr. Su gave more and more acupuncture treatments, the child's convulsions became less severe.

After the injection was completed, the child lay there and stopped struggling.

The breathing was weak, but still there was breathing.

Mrs. Zhao sobbed softly.

Zhao Duan's face looked extremely ugly.

Cong'er was already in great pain, and after taking the medicine, he started to convulse and almost died.

He also realized that he could no longer take this medicine.

I can't take this medicine. What should I do if Cong'er has another attack?

"Doctor, can you save Cong'er?" Mrs. Zhao asked with a hint of expectation.

She had seen the doctor's skills before. He had just brought Cong'er back from the brink of death without using any medicine, relying solely on acupuncture.

Doctor Su frowned tightly.

The child is very weak and has various symptoms.

The original tuberculosis...

Yes, the child was suffering from tuberculosis. Doctor Su was familiar with this disease because his wife had suffered from it before.

This disease is too difficult for other doctors, but it is not a problem for him. He has studied this disease for more than ten years. No one knows it better than him.

But the problem now is that there is another kind of toxin accumulation in the child's body.

Before he came, Tang Li told him about this thing. This thing will affect people's brains and cause dependence. The only way to treat it is to tie their hands and feet. No matter how painful the patient is, he will not be given any medicine and can only rely on willpower to get through it.

However, the child already had tuberculosis and was too weak to survive.

While treating tuberculosis, I can also use my own acupuncture to relieve the symptoms when he attacks. Maybe I can give it a try...

Doctor Su said, "I'm 40% sure I can cure him."

40%...

This medicine is no longer effective. If Cong'er has another attack, he will die.

Forty percent, the hope is already great.

Mrs. Zhao knelt down directly in front of Doctor Su and said, "Doctor, please, save my son. As long as you can save Cong'er, I will do anything."

Mrs. Zhao begged Doctor Su, but Zhao Duan knew that the one who really decided this matter was Wu Yu.

The condition for them to save Cong'er must be...

"Lord Wu, let's go outside and talk." Zhao Duan said.

Wei Qing and Zhao Duan went to the outer room together.

The light reflected the pain on Zhao Duan's face.

"Lord Wu, you know a lot. You know everything that has happened recently, so I won't elaborate. You want to save His Majesty, but I am already a traitor. If I restore order, my whole family will die." Zhao Duan said, "Even if you save Cong'er, he will still die."

Zhao Duan paused and muttered, "Why didn't you come earlier..."

If you had come earlier and helped him save Cong'er, he wouldn't have fallen into this situation.

Blame him too...

He is now in a dilemma.

He hated Zhao Shu, hated him for using Cong'er to threaten him and forcing him to go down this path. He had no choice but to continue working for the person who killed Cong'er.

However, even if he repented, he would still be a traitor and his entire family would be doomed.

"Deputy Commander Zhao, you hate Zhao Shu to the core, and how could Zhao Shu not know this? Do you really think Zhao Shu would let you go once he became emperor?" Wei Qing continued, "If you come to your senses in time, I can guarantee that by then, your wife and children will be safe."

"How can you guarantee that?" Zhao Duan looked at Wei Qing.

"Deputy Commander Zhao, let me tell you a secret..." Wei Qing suddenly came closer and said in a low voice.

…

Daybreak is coming.

Tangli woke up from a short sleep with a panicked look on his face.

She felt around her and found it empty. She lit the candle and found no one in the room.

Tangli put on his clothes, stood up and opened the door.

"Fourteen." Tangli called out.

Fourteen appeared in front of Tangli and said, "Madam, the master has not returned yet."

Tangli nodded.

She walked up and down the yard, the cold sobering her up a little.

I don’t know how her husband is doing.

Just now, she had a dream.

She hadn't had a precognitive dream in a long time.

In the dream, Zhao Shu killed the emperor and successfully ascended the throne.

This dream is related to their life and death.

Once Zhao Shu becomes emperor, he will certainly start to settle accounts. Then all their previous efforts will be in vain and their situation will be extremely dangerous.

Therefore, Zhao Shu must not be allowed to kill the emperor.

Tangli realized that this might be her final battle with the original Heavenly Dao.

Since I had this dream, it means that Zhao Shu will take action soon.

They don't have much time left.

Why hasn't her husband come back yet?

Tangli looked towards the door anxiously.
