Chapter 481: Living is More Important Than Anything Else



Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and then many of them showed joy on their faces.

Wei Yong excitedly stepped forward and grabbed Li Xiang's wrist, saying, "Your Highness, are you serious? Is there really hope for His Majesty?"

It’s not that everyone present is unwilling to believe what Li Xiang said, but Li Zhuo’s current condition is really worrying.

Anyone could see at a glance that he was in a terrible state, like a candle in the wind.

At this moment, Li Zhuo's face was as pale as paper, without any blood at all, as if all the vitality in his body had been sucked away. His body was as stiff as a stick, completely losing his former flexibility and agility.

His originally steady and powerful breathing became extremely weak, as if he was breathing out but not in. It was as if the fire of life was about to go out and he could completely disappear from this world at any time.

In this state, let alone treating him, even if he got closer and breathed a little harder, he would probably be sprayed to death, not to mention saving someone.

But Li Xiang said confidently that he wanted to save people and invite Lu Chen over, which was enough to prove his confidence.

You have to know that the two parties have a master-disciple relationship as close as father and son. If Li Xiang is not sure, there is no need to involve Lu Chen.

To put it bluntly, now that the dust has settled, the eldest prince's rebellion is a foregone conclusion.

Not only did Li Xiang lead his men to attack and seize the imperial city, but he was also the crown prince.

If something went wrong with the emperor, he could have ascended the throne naturally, and there was no need to do this to score points for himself.

Now that he has done this, he must be extremely confident.

In fact, at this moment, many people opened their mouths to stop Li Xiang, most of whom were ministers who had already sided with him.

In their opinion, since the man was killed by the eldest prince, why not just forget about it and wait patiently for his ascension to the throne?

But Li Xiang did not give any response to these people. He felt that given the current situation, he could still give it a try.

Soon everything Li Xiang wanted arrived, and Lu Chen also rushed over with all the doctors and nurses from the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Now is not the time to discuss cost-effectiveness. Regardless of whether it can be used or not, everyone has to come, and even bring some equipment.

There was nothing fancy next. After it was confirmed that Li Zhuo was poisoned while eating food, all the rescue work began in an orderly manner.

First, prepare enough soapy water and an appropriate amount of saline solution, and then carefully inject these liquids into the patient's stomach through specific medical equipment.

This process is like a carefully planned cleaning operation, the purpose of which is to completely remove toxic substances that may be life-threatening. This is what we often call gastric lavage.

For food poisoning, gastric lavage is a very critical and effective treatment method.

When people accidentally ingest harmful food or toxins, these harmful substances will quickly enter the gastrointestinal tract and be absorbed. If timely measures are not taken, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Gastric lavage can act directly on the stomach, using the cleansing ability of soapy water and the mildness of saline to flush out as much toxins as possible, thereby reducing damage to the body.

First flush out all the toxins in the stomach and eradicate them, then we can discuss the issue of detoxification.

Because they knew it was the Queen who poisoned them, they have now begun to attack the Queen's bedroom.

It is very important to identify the poison. As long as we know what kind of poison it is, we may be able to find the right antidote.

The back and forth flushing made everyone's heart tighten. Everyone could see that Li Zhuo was in great pain. At the same time, the pungent smell of his vomit made many ministers frown.

At this time, Lu Chen said: "You gentlemen should leave first. You can't help much here. Just leave the six ministers behind."

When the other deputies from the six ministries heard this, they all bowed and left. The room was originally closed, and the smell was really unpleasant.

After coming out, many colleagues rushed up to me, and everyone wanted to ask what was going on inside.

These people were actually sent out by Lu Chen specifically to pass on information. When everyone learned that the queen had poisoned the emperor and that the emperor was now unconscious, the civil servants started cursing again.

Listening to the shouting and cursing outside, Li Xiang frowned. He was a little annoyed with these civil servants. None of them could help and could only yell nonsense.

Fortunately, it was not all bad news. Soon, the people who were attacking the queen's bedroom brought good news. The queen's bedroom had been breached, and they learned from the queen's personal maid that the poison given to the emperor was arsenic.

When he learned that the poison was arsenic, Hua Bule, who was kneeling on the ground, had a drastic change of expression and said, "Impossible. Your Majesty always uses silver needles to test everything he takes. If it were arsenic, the silver needle would definitely turn black."

Lu Chen looked at Hua Bule speechlessly, thinking, is this the emperor's defense method? This is too bad.

Just as he was about to explain, Li Xiang beside him sighed and said, "Silver needles can only detect toxins containing sulfides. The chemical formula of arsenic is arsenic trioxide. As long as its purity is high enough and the sulfide impurities are removed, silver needles will not be effective."

"My father is worth a ton of gold, but you're using such childish methods to protect him. You really disappoint me!"

Upon hearing this, Hua Bule, who had been very tough when facing the Queen's rebellion before, suddenly fell to the ground.

He was Li Zhuo's personal eunuch, mainly responsible for the emperor's food, clothing, and daily life. Now that such a big mistake had occurred, he could not escape the blame.

More importantly, as the future heir to the throne, Li Xiang completely denied the meaning of their existence at this moment, which was very scary.

If Li Xiang cannot change her opinion of them, they will most likely be purged on a large scale after she ascends the throne.

Fortunately, Lu Chen waved his hand and said, "Now is not the time to talk about this. Since it is confirmed to be arsenic, let's quickly get some milk."

When suffering from heavy metal poisoning, consuming a large amount of protein can allow the protein to combine with the heavy metals and then be excreted from the body through vomiting.

Now everyone just hopes that Li Zhuo takes in less amount and for a shorter period of time, maybe he can still be saved.

At this time, Li Xiang on the side also got angry. He turned to Lu Chen and said, "Master, if it doesn't work, let's do it at the same time!"

Lu Chen thought about it, and couldn't help but shuddered and asked: "Are you sure?"

"Well, I'm pretty sure that being alive is more important than anything else."

"Okay, you make the decision. I'll go out first and then you guys can do it."

After Lu Chen left, Li Xiang nodded to the doctors around him and said, "Get ready and start the enema treatment."
