Chapter 624: Using the Body as Poison
"How do you know?" Xiao Jialing asked doubtfully, "The crisis in Jiashui City has just been resolved, so the news shouldn't be able to get in."
When Xiao Jialing brought the things in, the bloody smell at the city gate was so nauseating!
The moat was filled with blood.
The soldiers will count the sacrificed soldiers. Even if they have not witnessed it with their own eyes, they can feel the cruelty of this battle!
Xiao Jiuyue told Xiao Jialing what General Wang said, and Xiao Jialing fell silent. He had always been pessimistic about Prince Duan, but he didn't expect that Prince Duan would sacrifice the lives of 80,000 people in Jiashui City in order to get rid of Prince Ling!
What's more, in order to ascend to the throne, he colluded with the people of Xijiang.
"Brother, what's going on in Shengjing? How are my parents and grandmother?" Xiao Jiuyue asked anxiously. She said worriedly, "If there's a palace coup, then wouldn't my father and the others be..."
"Don't worry, I've already contacted my parents, they're fine." Xiao Jialing quickly comforted her, "You're pregnant now, don't worry or get angry! Be careful not to get a miscarriage!"
"How can I not be anxious about such a big thing?" Xiao Jiuyue looked at Xiao Jialing impatiently and said, "Brother, please tell me what happened?"
"Prince Duan did rebel. He and General Wang's men should have been collaborating with each other long ago."
Before Xiao Jialing could finish his words, Xiao Jiuyue's eyes widened as she asked, "Could it be that he really succeeded in his rebellion? If someone like him becomes emperor, wouldn't that mean the end of South Vietnam?"
When Xiao Jiuyue thought about that bastard Prince Duan becoming the emperor, his heart sank. He only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, and lived a life of luxury and debauchery, and regarded the lives of the people as worthless. If a man like him became the emperor, Nanyue would be finished sooner or later!
"Of course not." Xiao Jialing quickly interrupted her fantasy and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. The palace is heavily guarded. If only Prince Duan is causing the coup, then everything will be fine."
"What do you mean? Besides Prince Duan, there are other people?" Xiao Jiuyue immediately grasped the key point of his words.
"Concubine Zhao."
Xiao Jialing mentioned a name, and Xiao Jiuyue was even more shocked. She said, "No wonder she didn't marry the young prince, but ended up marrying the emperor. That's not right. Concubine Zhao came here for a marriage alliance. She brought only a limited number of people with her. How could she have such great power?"
"Just based on Zhao Fei's status, no matter how much the emperor favors her, he will never give her even the slightest privilege." Xiao Jiuyue had met Emperor Jing several times. Although he was not a wise ruler in history, he was still a thousand times better than Prince Duan.
At least Emperor Jing still wanted to be a wise ruler, not a foolish one.
"Yes, but what if Concubine Zhao has been poisoning the emperor?" Xiao Jialing pursed her lips and told him everything that happened in Shengjing in one breath.
Concubine Zhao poisoned her own body, and the emperor who favored Concubine Zhao was poisoned by a kind of poison called: Datura.
This poison can make the emperor gradually lose his mind.
When Prince Duan launched a coup, Yongzhao's men entered the palace in one fell swoop.
"Could it be that the emperor..." Xiao Jiuyue didn't dare to say the word "passed away".
"Fortunately, the people left in the palace by Prince Ling discovered something was wrong and protected the emperor and others. However, the gunpowder was limited, and the Yongzhao people were unable to attack for a while. Prince Ling's people took the emperor, the queen mother and others and left the palace through a secret passage." Xiao Jialing sighed when talking about this.
The emperor of a country was forced to flee the palace.
"What about now? Have the Yongzhao people occupied Shengjing?" Xiao Jiuyue asked in disbelief, and said, "I remember there were several military camps near Shengjing."
"Yes, the emperor is currently in the Tongzhou camp, which is the closest to Shengjing!" Xiao Jialing looked at her and said, "So, Shengjing is already overwhelmed. No one will care if I come to Jiashui City to deliver something."
"Brother, we have to hurry to the capital." Xiao Jiuyue immediately sensed the danger and said, "Once the Yongzhao army attacks and takes Shengjing directly, it will be impossible to retake Shengjing!"
"Yes, but Xijiang is ready to make a move, so we can't just sit back and do nothing." Xiao Jialing had inquired about many things on the way here. He asked, "Where's the prince?"
I sat there for such a long time, but the prince didn't come.
"The prince... is still in a coma." Xiao Jiuyue led Xiao Jialing into the house. Looking at Jun Lie lying on the bed, who looked like he was fast asleep, she sighed and said, "The prince has been in a coma for nearly six days."
"What's going on?" Xiao Jialing asked worriedly.
Xiao Jiuyue told the story of how Jun Lie tragically defended Jiashui City. She also did not hide the secret technique of taming beasts. She said, "Perhaps it was because of the use of this secret technique that the prince's body could not withstand it, and he fell into a coma."
"Don't worry, big brother. The people from the Flower Clan should be here soon. Once they arrive, they will be able to rescue the prince." Xiao Jiuyue now placed all his hopes on the people from the Flower Clan.
Hua Qing and the others are so mysterious. I believe that when the Hua people come, they will definitely be able to rescue the prince.
"That's good." Xiao Jialing felt relieved. Looking at Xiao Jiuyue who had lost weight after pregnancy, he felt distressed and could only let Xiao Jiuyue eat more during meals.
After dinner, Xiao Jialing asked people to distribute the food he brought with him. At the same time, he led the people to see whether the food in the fields could be harvested.
When Xiao Jialing arrived in the city and interacted with the people, he realized the prince's prestige among the people!
The people are truly grateful to the prince. When they mention him, they express respect and happiness, hoping that he will get better soon.
When distributing food, Xiao Jialing felt even more deeply what his sister had done for Jiashui City.
"Master, can you take a look at the medicine my eldest brother brought? Can it cure Ying Qi?" When Xiao Jiuyue was counting the list of medicines, he found several medicines that were urgently needed, and hurriedly found Doctor Xiao Wang.
Doctor Xiao Wang took a look and said, "It can indeed be used as a substitute. Come, boil the medicine now!"
Guo Sheng immediately took the medicine and went to boil it. While taking care of Ying Qi, he said, "Ying Qi, you won't die. When the time comes, you can take your wife's money yourself!"
When Guo Sheng thought about how Ying Qi had told him these past two days how much money he had saved and where he had kept it, as if he was making arrangements for his funeral, he felt uncomfortable.
Now there is finally medicine, Yingqi can be saved! !
"The princess kept her promise. I told you that you will definitely not die. Even the King of Hell won't take you away!" Guo Sheng said happily while decocting the medicine.
Ying Qi lay weakly on the bed. He had been poisoned for several days and was extremely weak. Listening to Guo Sheng's muttering, he felt warm in his heart.
Now that the antidote for Ying Qi was available, Xiao Jiuyue breathed a sigh of relief.
In the evening, Hua Qing came.
"Princess, my Hua people will be here soon. The prince will be saved soon!" Hua Qing's voice rang out. Xiao Jiuyue looked behind her excitedly: "Where are they? When will they arrive? Can they arrive tomorrow morning?"
Jun Lie, he is finally waking up.
