Chapter 321 Poison
Even if the emperor asked her for a belt, she couldn't just embroider it casually, let alone she took the initiative to embroider it for the emperor. If she ended up just perfunctorily trying to please the emperor, the emperor would be so angry that he would chop off her head on the spot.
She always felt that Xie Jingyu was secretly plotting against her, but she had no evidence.
The emperor specifically asked for a belt, so Shen Wan had no choice but to embroider it for him.
After lunch, Shen Wan strolled around the yard twice, then went back to the house to embroider her belt.
Xie Jingyu was busy with this for the entire afternoon. He came back twice and finally said, "Don't be so anxious. Half an hour of embroidery every day will be enough."
Shen Wan said, "If I only embroider for half an hour every day, it will take me a month to finish it."
"The Emperor won't rush you."
Xie Jingyu snatched the belt and threw it into the embroidery basket.
Chen Wan was also a little tired, so she stopped embroidering. However, it would definitely not be possible to embroider for only half an hour every day. She didn't dare to let the emperor wait for a month. Half a month was the maximum she could do.
After dinner, Xie Jingyu accompanied Shen Wan for a walk in the garden.
In the study, the prince's mood was not so good.
Zhao Yuanzheng brought the poison that Xie Jingyu wanted.
Um.
Dean Zhao took an afternoon off and rushed to prepare it.
It is a mixture of seven poisonous flowers, plants and insects. No one in the world can detoxify it except Zhao Yuanzheng himself.
If you take this poison within half an hour, you will vomit blood and fall into a coma. If there is no antidote within half a month, you will die.
Fearing that the prince would need it urgently, Zhao Yuanzheng sent the antidote without preparing it. However, although the antidote was not prepared, the detoxification prescription was also provided.
After Zhao Yuanzheng left, the prince looked at the medicine bottle and had a severe headache.
After watching for an unknown amount of time, the prince threw the medicine bottle to the secret guard.
"Go ahead."
…
At night, after Shen Wan finished taking a bath, Xie Jingyu carried her to bed.
Since Shen Wan was pregnant, Xie Jingyu didn't dare to go too far, so they only had sex once every two days.
Shen Wan no longer resisted, nor was she shy.
Just as Xie Jingyu put Shen Wan on the bed, ready to spend a wonderful night, an untimely knock on the window was heard, "Master, the second young master vomited blood and fainted..."
I thought my father would struggle for a day or two, but I didn't expect him to act so quickly.
Xie Jingyu wanted to continue the unfinished business, and Shen Wan said, "The second young master vomited blood and fainted, aren't you going to take a look?"
Xie Jingyu looked at the person beneath him and gritted his teeth, "Your father didn't beat me during the day, so you asked him to make up for it tonight?"
He was the one who asked his father to poison him, and he even pretended to care about Xie Jingze late at night. It would be strange if his father didn't want to beat him.
Chen Wan raised his hand to swear, "I don't think so..."
Before he could finish his words, they were all swallowed up.
The spring scenery here is boundless, but over there, not far away, Xie Jingze and Song Nanyue's yard is in a mess.
Song Nanyue is pregnant and has a talisman, so she is in a good mood. Xie Jingze accompanies her to watch the moon.
But as he was admiring it, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
Song Nanyue was almost scared to death on the spot.
She vomited blood and fainted. She must have been poisoned.
The maidservant was so frightened that she screamed and asked someone to call the imperial physician. She also went to report to the prince and Concubine Wen, and the incident became known to everyone in the mansion.
Although the poison was administered by the prince, he knew that his life would not be in danger within half a month and his lungs would not be damaged within three days, so it would not be serious. But it was his son after all, and the prince could not take it lightly when the servants reported it.
The prince went to see Xie Jingze, and Concubine Wen rushed there as soon as possible. Seeing her son lying on the bed with black blood at the corners of his mouth, Concubine Wen's face was pale, and Song Nanyue was not much better.
Song Nanyue and Xie Jingze have a good relationship. Besides, she is pregnant, so she doesn't want to be a widow, and she doesn't want her child to be without a father before he is born.
Concubine Wen asked anxiously, "Where is the imperial physician? Why hasn't he come yet?"
Seeing such eager concern, the prince suspected that he and Xie Jingyu were being too suspicious.
Soon, the imperial physician came, took Xie Jingze's pulse, and shook his head.
Concubine Wen asked, "What kind of poison did Ze'er get?"
The imperial physician said, "This poison is a mixture of seven poisonous herbs. Without knowing the order and dosage of the preparation, there is no way to detoxify it."
Song Nanyan was on the verge of collapse. "Is there no way at all?"
"We can only find the person who poisoned us and get the antidote."
Song Nanyan knelt down before the prince and said, "Father, my daughter-in-law just got pregnant today, and someone poisoned my husband. This is unacceptable to us. My husband hasn't left the house since the afternoon. The poison must have been administered by someone in the mansion. Please search the entire mansion and find the antidote to save my husband's life!"
He said he was searching the entire mansion, but in fact he suspected Shen Wan and Xie Jingyu, but he didn't dare to say it out loud because he had no evidence.
She had just declared war on Shen Wan during the day, determined to fight to the end, and then something happened to Xie Jingze at night. He didn't dare to do anything to her, so he targeted Xie Jingze.
Concubine Wen said, "Ze'er has been harmed to this extent, and the prince won't even search the mansion?!"
The prince has a headache.
The poison was given by his father, the king. He doesn't even have the antidote, so it would be strange if he could find it from somewhere else.
But if I don’t search, the night will not end peacefully.
Do the whole act.
"Search."
…
Just as Xie Jingyu asked someone to bring water into the house, people came to search the house.
The first one to search was Zhaolanxuan.
The servants held torches and stood guard in the courtyard, "Searching the mansion on the orders of the prince."
Shanhu said, "The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess have gone to bed."
Mother Wu said, "Please cooperate with the prince's instructions, prince and princess."
Xie Jingyu looked impatient. He wanted to go out, but Shen Wan grabbed his sleeve and said, "Let them search."
After the search, they can go to bed early.
Chen Wan didn't wear a skirt, she just wrapped herself in a cloak, and Xie Jingyu helped her out.
Mother Wu brought people into the house and searched very carefully, leaving no corner untouched. The study was also a key area, and all kinds of bottles and jars were checked by the imperial physician.
Zhao Lanxuan almost searched the whole place from head to toe, even the woodshed was not spared.
Shen Wan was speechless.
If they wanted to poison Xie Jingze, could they hide the antidote in the woodshed?
After searching inside and out, Xie Jingyu became impatient. "Do you think I don't have a deadly poison? I poisoned your Second Young Master, and now I'm waiting for you to find an antidote to save him?"
The group of servants had nothing to say.
The imperial physician also felt that the Prince of Jingbei would not do such a thing.
Since you've already poisoned him, why not use something that's deadly instantly, and leave the second young master a chance to seek medical help from a doctor?
But Concubine Wen wanted to search the palace, and Prince Jingbei agreed, so he had no choice but to go along.
"Have you finished searching?"
"Do you want to search again?"
Chen Wan is so angry that he will die without any compensation.
Mother Wu also wanted to search again, but seeing that the Crown Prince and his wife did not stop her at all, she knew that the antidote was not in Zhao Lanxuan.
But they must have poisoned him!
What a cruel heart!
Mother Wu said, "We are only following the prince's orders. We still need to search elsewhere. The prince and princess should rest early."
Since they didn't find it in Zhao Lanxuan, they didn't dare to look for it anywhere else. After all, the last time Song Nanyue was poisoned, the antidote was found in the old lady's room.
When she heard that the house was going to be searched, the person who was most frightened was the old lady.
Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of ropes for ten years.
Last time, he took away her imperial edict, and now he wants to search her room for the antidote. Unless she dies, the prince will move her and his second and third wives out of the palace.
Mother Wu took people to search the house, and the old lady stood there, trembling with fear.
Whenever any maid made a loud movement or spoke a little louder, her heart would start pounding.
After a thorough search, they didn't find the antidote, but instead they took half the old lady's life.
