Chapter 197 Jiang Nanyuan sneaks into the Xiqin Palace and the Princess's Mansion
"Yue Li, you're back just in time. A Yuan has remembered the antidote formula from the dragon bone."
Jiang Nanyuan had heard of this poison by chance before in Phoenix Country, but it had been so long that she couldn't remember the antidote formula.
Today, something suddenly flashed through her mind, and she happened to catch it. Then she noticed that this was the antidote to the dragon bone.
Speaking of this, Yue Li was naturally interested. He strode over and saw a written prescription on the table. He picked it up and took a look.
Most of the herbs here are common, except for one that he had never heard of, called Xuepo Silkworm Heart.
"Miss Jiang, what is this Snow Soul Silkworm Heart? I've never heard of it before."
"This is a ball of silver silk formed when the ice silkworm spins silk and wraps around the heart meridian. This thing is extremely rare, and I don't know if it's here."
Xiao Yuchen was happy that Jiang Nanyuan remembered the prescription, so she could be saved. He didn't mention the prescription just now. Now when he heard about the medicine, he felt that it was very rare as soon as he heard the name.
I seem to have heard of ice silkworms in the palace before. It is said that they were tribute from other countries.
Which country exactly was it? Xiao Yuchen thought about it and it seemed to be the Western Qin Kingdom. He was still young at that time and heard that a concubine favored by the emperor needed this. At that time, the emperor asked someone to give the only Ice Soul Silkworm Heart to that concubine to make medicine.
Since it has been offered as tribute before, does it mean that the palace still has it? If Yue Li can cure the emperor's illness in the palace, can he ask for an imperial decree to let him give the gift as a reward?
I just don’t know what disease the King of Western Qin has, and whether Yue Li can cure him.
Xiao Yuchen thought about it and decided to tell this matter. Yue Li was not sure whether she could cure the disease. After all, she had not seen the person, so she was not sure.
"Let me go and take a look first." Jiang Nanyuan said. She was the most suitable person to go. Others couldn't see her. Although she couldn't feel the pulse, she could observe.
"Well, okay, then you have to be careful." Xiao Yuchen thought there was no other way, so he had to ask Jiang Nanyuan to go and take a look.
"Okay, I'll go there later. By the way, you don't have to wait for me to come back at night. I'll go to the palace and then go to the princess's mansion to see what's going on there."
Xiao Yuchen nodded, and Yue Li also looked at Jiang Nanyuan. Suddenly, she felt that her current condition was quite good. At least she could go wherever she wanted at any time.
When the sun was almost setting, Jiang Nanyuan went out. She floated towards the palace and soon arrived at the gate. She went straight through the wall and entered the palace. The layout inside was similar to that of the Beirong Palace. She quickly found the emperor's palace.
When he came over at this time, he happened to see someone in the room. There was a person lying on the dragon couch, and a man wearing a dragon robe was standing by the table next to him, and there was another man in black next to him.
The two were talking, and Jiang Nanyuan also floated over to listen to what they were saying.
"Grandmaster, is it true that my father's illness will not allow him to survive for more than six months?"
"Don't worry, Sixth Prince. My poison has never failed. Your Majesty will live no more than six months."
"That's great! Father is finally going to die. Humph! There's still half a year left. I don't believe he won't hand the tiger talisman over to me. I wonder how my sister is doing."
"Sixth Prince, we must obtain the Tiger Tally before the Emperor dies. After all, it controls tens of thousands of troops. We can then attack Beirong and make it our vassal state."
"Don't worry, he's relented recently. He said a few days ago that he would give me the tiger talisman. I just need to wait a few days. I can pretend to be filial in front of him, or I can ask Lan'er to come over and talk to him. That would also work."
The Imperial Master nodded without saying anything else. The Sixth Prince asked someone to come in and take care of the Emperor, and then the two of them left the room.
After they left, Jiang Nanyuan floated forward to take a look at the emperor on the dragon couch.
The moment she saw him, Jiang Nanyuan was obviously stunned. He looked somewhat similar to her son, although only slightly, with similar eyebrows and eyes.
In fact, he looks more like Xiao Yuchen.
That’s not the case. It should be said that Xiao Yuchen is more like him. She suddenly thought of Bai Ran. Could it be that the man who was with Bai Ran before was him?
Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Nanyuan quickly checked his body. Although she couldn't touch him, she knew at a glance that he had been chronically poisoned. She then observed the medicine he drank, bent down to smell it, and could roughly tell what medicinal ingredients were in it.
She had a rough idea of what the medicine was, so she didn't stay in this room for long. She floated to the Imperial Hospital. She wanted to see if the Imperial Hospital had the Snow Soul Ice Silkworm she needed.
After searching for a while without finding it, she went to the treasury to check, and she actually found it. There were several boxes scattered in the corner of the treasury, and the contents of the boxes were scattered out, allowing her to see the Snow Soul Ice Silkworm.
What a waste of resources!!!
If she could reach those things, she would definitely go forward to pick them up and put them into the space.
Knowing that there was this thing in the palace, she didn't stay here for long. She also wanted to go to the princess's mansion to see what was going on there.
After leaving the palace and arriving at the princess's mansion, she discovered that the mansion was now much more heavily guarded than before. If Xiao Yuchen and Yue Li came in again, it would probably be really tough. There were at least more than fifty secret guards here.
Jiang Nanyuan followed her memory and came to the princess's bedroom. It was already midnight, and she saw that Ji Lan had not slept yet, but was taking a bath in the room.
It was really strange to take a bath so late at night. She sat aside and waited until she finished bathing, then sent all the servants away. Not long after they left, she stood up and walked to the cabinet beside her. She pressed a switch inside, and the cabinet door slowly opened.
There is actually a dark room.
Jiang Nanyuan also followed her and came into the dark room. She saw that it was actually a dungeon.
There are all kinds of torture instruments in there, and there are about ten people imprisoned inside, all of them are good-looking men. Jiang Nanyuan discovered that there are not only men in there, but even orcs.
The orc's hands were handcuffed with chains, and the other men were lying on the ground, their bodies covered with wounds of varying sizes.
The princess took one look, then pointed at one of the men and said to the air, "Drag him and follow me."
Immediately, two men in black came out from the darkness, walked up to the man and carried him along with the princess into a smaller room inside.
The two men in black threw the man to the ground and retreated.
Jiang Nanyuan followed in and saw Ji Lan touching the man's face. Then he walked to the cabinet beside him, took out a medicine bottle, poured out a green pill from it and fed it to the man.
After feeding them, they had the man dragged away, and another person came over. After everyone had been fed the medicine, Ji Lan clapped his hands and waved his hand in disgust, "Drag him to the Colosseum."
"Yes." Several men in black appeared and dragged the men away.
