When Jun Baozhu returned to Qiwu Palace, he thought he had gone to the wrong place.
Because there are layers of guards in front of the palace, people who don’t know might think that serious criminals are imprisoned there.
Jun Baozhu was surprised. The system noticed it in his sea of consciousness and speculated:
[Perhaps, the poison in Concubine Li's body has not been eradicated, and the Queen is worried that she will be manipulated again and hurt more people.]
Jun Baozhu's chest heaved, and he was extremely worried.
It was sent to the bedroom, a familiar place, and the smell of medicine was even stronger than that in the Yangxin Palace.
【Mother...】
As soon as Jun Baozhu was born, she was carried to the bedside of Concubine Li by the Queen.
Perhaps it was the response that caused Concubine Li, who was lying down, to open her eyes.
When he saw Jun Baozhu, his eyes suddenly lit up, and as if he thought of something, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
Before she could open her mouth, the queen had already ordered the doctor to bring a dagger and a bowl.
"No, sister!"
Concubine Li's voice was weak and she tried her best, but it was too late.
The queen gently cut open Jun Baozhu's fingertips and squeezed the bright red liquid into the bowl.
Jun Baozhu had tears in her eyes, but she stopped crying.
The Queen touched Jun Baozhu's head distressedly and comforted her:
"Good boy! You are so well behaved because you know you are saving your mother!"
Concubine Li wanted to speak again, but was severely reprimanded by the Queen.
"After all, you were trained by me personally!
Why are you so cautious?
If you are not a good person, can I tie you up for the rest of your life?
Besides, I just want some of Baozhu's blood, not her bones!
If you had been more decisive, you wouldn't have ended up like this!
Baozhu has suffered a lot, and she has caused you and Your Majesty to suffer such a great crime!
Even if Baozhu's blood is useful, the poison has already broken out last time. You know better than me whether the damage to your body can be recovered!
I don't mean to blame you, but you should stop being so coy and artificial and making me angry.
If you don't get better soon, you will have more blood when you need it in the future.
Also, the emperor doesn't trust the court judge, but your medical skills are always better. If you get better soon, can't you help the emperor recuperate and get better faster? "
Concubine Li had nothing to say and could only nod in shame.
The queen had no expression on her face and asked the doctor to pour the blood down her throat.
The Queen then asked, "Tell me honestly, if you take it, what will be the effect on those who were previously controlled by the Gu worm?"
Concubine Li swallowed it with difficulty, and the doctor carefully wiped the corners of her mouth. As she was considering her words, she heard the Queen's stern warning:
"Don't lie to me!"
A soft sigh was heard from within the room.
"Sister, you are right! I underestimated the enemy and thought that after lying in wait for so long, the witch doctor would not take action immediately...
I thought I still had time to research the antidote. Unexpectedly..."
The Queen sighed, "Fortunately you made some progress and were able to control part of your consciousness at the time, so that the blade would be diverted from your heart and lungs. Otherwise..."
The Queen couldn't continue. The Emperor had passed away at the hands of Imperial Concubine Li. If she didn't make trouble, Dafeng would be in chaos. Even if the Queen tried her best, she might not be able to get Imperial Concubine Li.
"This is also a lesson for you! To achieve great things, you must be ruthless!
Not to mention Baozhu's bowl of blood, if a war really breaks out, how many farmers will send their sons to the battlefield?
Don’t they love their children? !”
Concubine Li's eyes became clear, "Sister is right! I know I was wrong.
I was careless this time and the poisonous insect has already eaten away some of my internal organs.
The medicine prepared by the female doctor can control the effects of the poisonous insects, and Baozhu's blood can kill them all.
As for the damage to the internal organs, just like if someone has a bad stomach or heart, they can take medicine to alleviate the problem, but it cannot be eradicated.”
Concubine Li told the truth honestly.
If the Queen hadn't been worried about scaring Jun Baozhu, she would have almost smashed the bowl of blood.
"you!"
The queen covered her heart and could not utter a word.
"It's also a lesson for me. I was too careless and overconfident!"
Concubine Li answered humbly.
[Mother, Mother's health, will it always be affected? ]
Jun Baozhu listened to the conversation between her mother, the queen, and her mother's concubine, then realized what was going on and asked the system.
When I got a positive response, I couldn't help but pout and felt very sad.
[Is there no other way to reduce this kind of damage? ]
[Mother's medical skills are better than the imperial physician's. Mother herself said so. So it can only be this way? ]
[Although I have been on a lifelong regimen of decoctions and medicines, fortunately I took medicines and adjusted myself in advance, so the damage from the insect was not too severe. Was I able to control some of my consciousness at that time?]
Jun Baozhu suddenly remembered and asked the system:
[My mother, when was she poisoned? ]
[When did she know it herself? ]
As the system was searching for information comprehensively, the Queen looked towards Concubine Li.
Jun Baozhu didn't come back before, and the Queen didn't ask because she was worried about her health.
Before the system answered, Concubine Li took the initiative to say:
"I told my sister before that I only remember my life before and after entering the palace.
My memory slowly returned and I remembered that I came from a farming family and was familiar with medicinal herbs.
It was not until this accident that I finally remembered that I was from Xiangshan Country.
Like the others contributed by Xiangshan Kingdom as part of the covenant, he was at the command of the great witch doctor.
Because Xiangshan Country borders Nanchi, there are many people who are familiar with medicinal herbs. So, she deliberately left me, who is familiar with medicinal herbs and medical skills, among them.
According to my inference, she initially selected me to enter the palace not necessarily to enjoy the use of the poisonous insect to control me, but perhaps she thought that by using me to poison or use other methods, I could assist her more.
She didn't expect that she would be exposed so quickly, and she didn't expect that Baozhu would be so powerful...
I heard that Nan Chi was defeated and she had little strength left, so she made one last attempt!
