Chapter 111 The Queen Suspects Su Yuheng's Identity
"How could he be poisoned out of nowhere?"
"Doctor Zhang, please...quickly take a look at Miss Shen."
The queen was extremely anxious and saw Shen Wan lying on the table, her face pale and her lips purple.
The corners of her lips curled up unconsciously.
She came down from her high seat and walked to Shen Wan's side.
"The food served at the imperial banquet hosted by this palace, all of which was personally tested for poison, so how could Miss Shen be poisoned?"
Shen Wan was completely exhausted and powerless, with no expression on her face, and no energy at all.
Prince Rui felt extremely distressed and held her in his arms.
Perhaps because the incident happened suddenly, his eyes were a little red.
"Wan'er, please don't scare me, okay?"
He reached out and gently patted Shen Wan's cheek, but Shen Wan was still unconscious and confused.
"Doctor Zhang, come quickly and take a look at Wan'er."
He didn't want to lose her again.
Doctor Zhang walked up to Shen Wan, put his hand on her wrist, and gently took her pulse.
Su Yuheng was standing not far away. Just as he was about to stand up and walk to Shen Wan's side, he met the Queen's gaze.
That look made her feel something was wrong in an instant.
There was an indescribable look in the queen's eyes when she looked at her, as if she wanted to see through everything from her.
"Doctor Zhang, what's going on? What kind of poison has Miss Shen been poisoned by?"
Doctor Zhang withdrew his hand and then bowed to the queen.
"Replying to the Queen, Miss Shen was indeed poisoned. Judging from her current condition, she was poisoned three days ago. The poison is called Yunmengjian."
Yunmengjian?
Su Yuheng's eyes darkened as he sat on the chair, looking somewhat unbelievable.
Anyone who gets caught in the Yunmeng area will die within half a year and turn into a pool of blood.
Moreover, the method of detoxification is also very unique, requiring the heart blood of a close relative to be used as medicine.
"Poisoned three days ago?" The queen frowned.
"If that's the case, then the poison wasn't contracted at my palace banquet. Who dared to poison this young lady from the Shen family? I must investigate."
She looked at Doctor Zhang: "Doctor Zhang, do you have any antidote for this poison?"
Doctor Zhang nodded and said, "Your Majesty, if the Yunmengjian poison is not treated, the patient will go blind at best, or turn into a pool of blood at worst. Furthermore, the treatment is extremely strange."
"How strange?" asked the Queen.
Doctor Zhang said, "This poison requires the heart blood of a loved one as a decoction, mixed with thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum. It will be completely detoxified in ten days."
"There is some in the Millennium Lingzhi Imperial Hospital, but given the Shen family's current situation, where can we find the blood of this loved one?"
“If the poison is not detoxified as soon as possible, the poison in Miss Shen’s body will spread to her internal organs, and the consequences will be unimaginable.”
Doctor Zhang said this and shook his head helplessly.
The queen glanced at Shen Wan in Prince Rui's arms, and glanced at Su Yuheng out of the corner of her eye.
Su Yuheng sat in his seat and had no expression on his face when he heard the imperial physician say this.
In this matter, I’m afraid someone deliberately poisoned Shen Wan in order to lure her out.
Now all the male members of the Shen family have been slaughtered and Shen Tingzhou is missing.
Who else does Shen Wan have close relatives?
Not only is Madam Shen old and weak, but her body is also very frail, let alone using the heart blood to draw it in.
Besides, Madam Shen’s blood cannot solve the Yunmengjian problem.
So, this was a deliberate plot by someone.
I just want her to expose herself.
Over there, King Rui’s eyes were red as he held Shen Wan in his arms, his body trembling slightly.
He looked at Doctor Zhang and said, "Wan'er's loved ones have passed away, and Chen Tingzhou is missing. Is there any other way to save Wan'er besides this method?"
"Use this king's heart's blood, will it work?"
"Don't even mention the blood in my heart. Even if I have to sacrifice my own life for Wan'er's, I will be willing to do it."
"Huai Jin!" The queen beside her trembled all over after hearing this.
"You actually ruined yourself like this for a woman..."
"What about the Queen Mother? You have disappointed her so much!"
Prince Rui raised his head, his cold eyes fell on the queen, then he lowered his head and hugged Shen Wan tightly.
Emperor Zhaohe came down from his high seat, walked to Prince Rui and Shen Wan, and looked at Doctor Zhang.
"Is this the only way to cure Yunmengjian? Are there other ways to detoxify?"
Doctor Zhang sighed and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you order someone to find Shen Tingzhou's whereabouts?"
"There is only half a year left. If the poison cannot be cured within half a year, Miss Shen can only..."
Doctor Zhang's words stopped at his lips.
Emperor Zhaohe said: "Don't worry, I will order the whole city to search for the whereabouts of Shen Tingzhou. As for the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, have the Imperial Hospital send it to the Shen family."
"Huai Jin."
Emperor Showa looked at Prince Rui.
"I know you have a special liking for Miss Shen, but some things are in your hands. You don't have to be like this."
Prince Rui looked at Emperor Showa with red eyes.
"I also ask Father to issue an imperial decree to seek out the world's most famous doctors to detoxify Wan'er."
"I agree with you, but let Miss Shen go back to the Shen family first." After Emperor Showa finished speaking, he looked at the two pink-dressed palace maids beside him.
"First, send this young lady of the Shen family back to the Shen family. The doctors in the Imperial Hospital will find other ways to detoxify her."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Two palace maids walked over, helped Shen Wan up, and walked out of the palace gate.
Su Yuheng sat in his seat, looking at Shen Wan who was sent away, and clenched his hands gently.
As soon as she raised her eyes, she met Su Yanqiu's gaze from across from her.
Sitting in the men's seat, Su Yanqiu's lips curled up slightly.
He snorted in his heart.
This Su Yuheng really doesn't know his own identity.
She may not know that her heart's blood can save Shen Wan.
After Shen Wan was sent away by the palace maid, the banquet was coming to an end.
In the Imperial Palace, inside the Fengyi Hall.
A cold male voice broke the original tranquility of Fengyi Palace.
"Mother, you've gone too far. How could you poison Wan'er?"
"Wan'er is your future daughter-in-law. Even if you don't like her, why do you do this?"
The queen was wearing a phoenix robe and sitting on a chair, looking expressionlessly at Prince Rui who was standing in front of her.
"Huai Jin, what's so good about Chen Wan that she deserves your protection?"
"It was indeed me who had the poison administered three days ago. This palace banquet was also deliberately arranged by me. I have other motives."
Prince Rui snorted coldly: "What is your purpose that would make my mother harbor such a filthy and harmful heart?"
"If Wan'er is truly beyond help, I will never live alone."
"Even if my mother had a purpose, she shouldn't have attacked the one I love. You've let me down!"
Prince Rui waved his sleeves, his face ashen, and stared at the queen.
The Queen sighed and stood up from her chair.
She walked to King Rui's side and lowered her posture.
"Huai Jin, you are the Queen Mother's child. How could the Queen Mother really want to harm Shen Wan?"
Prince Rui frowned slightly and looked at her coldly.
"What do you mean, mother? You said you didn't really want to harm her, yet you used such a cruel poison like Yunmeng on her. What are your intentions?"
"What's more, this poison will harm her body. Why would Queen Mother take this risk?"
The queen curled her lips, picked up a cup of tea on the table, and smiled: "Isn't Huaijin curious about the true identity of this Su family girl, Su Yuheng?"
