Chapter 238 Don’t Blame Him
"Well, where is the King of War?" Yu Mengqing asked.
She really wanted to know if she was the only one who felt this way. She wondered if Chu Shiheng felt the same way.
"The War King is in the military camp over there." The soldier pointed to a place and said.
"Um!"
After saying that, he walked in the direction the soldier pointed.
Her hurried steps made it clear to anyone who knew her that she was a little panicked.
"When did this happen?"
Sure enough, as soon as Yu Mengqing walked to the door, she heard Chu Shiheng's low voice.
Hearing the sound, Yu Mengqing knew that it was not a good thing.
She rarely heard Chu Shiheng have such a serious expression.
On weekdays, no matter what happens, he always looks calm.
"It seems like it was just yesterday." Xue Zhonggui said on the side.
"What happened?" Yu Mengqing asked as she walked into the military camp.
Hearing this voice, several people turned their eyes to Yu Mengqing at the same time.
They were no longer surprised by her coming.
"Someone in the barracks has been poisoned for some unknown reason, but the military doctors still haven't figured out what the poison was."
Guo Yalun explained on the side.
Early this morning, they received news that someone in their army had been poisoned.
When we rushed over and saw, we found that hundreds of people had been poisoned.
Blame it on me, they were poisoned but there was no sign of poisoning.
The most important thing is that this poison is extremely contagious. Hundreds of people have died in just a few hours.
"Poisoned? Why didn't anyone inform me?" Yu Mengqing asked sternly.
When she said this, her eyes never left Chu Shiheng.
It is not difficult to guess that the decision to conceal her actions must have been made because Chu Shiheng gave the order.
"Yes, I was the one who asked you to keep it a secret." Chu Shiheng admitted directly.
"Mengqing, don't blame him. This poison is contagious. If it is discovered now, Prince Chu will demand that it be burned immediately."
Xue Zhonglan explained on the side.
The implication is that if this is not done, more soldiers will likely die.
Most importantly, he understood himself like Chu Shiheng and knew that he was not good at explaining.
If he didn't say it, there might be some misunderstanding between the two of them.
Not to mention Chu Shiheng, even Xue Zhonglan herself didn't want Yu Mengqing to check the poison.
What if she gets infected too?
"Yes, Sister Mengqing, you don't know that there are already three military doctors in the army who have been..."
"Guo Peiying, shut up!" Guo Yalun interrupted Guo Peiying and shouted angrily.
Hearing this, Guo Peiying immediately shut her mouth.
At this time, Guo Peiying also realized that she seemed to have said something wrong just now.
Chu Shiheng kept it a secret from her because he wanted to protect Sister Meng Qing. And by saying this now, wasn't she just adding fuel to the fire?
When she realized this, Guo Peiying stopped talking.
She looked so pitiful that Xue Zhonggui couldn't help but speak up for her.
"Aaron, Peiying is still young, so many things..."
"It has nothing to do with her. You can't hide this matter even if you want to." Yu Mengqing interrupted Xue Zhonggui.
Then he turned his head to Chu Shiheng and asked, "What's the situation now?"
When she asked this question, her tone was very matter-of-fact.
At this moment, Yu Mengqing also knew that it was not the time to pursue these things.
The most important thing is to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
In today's situation, the military doctor can no longer solve the problem. If she doesn't take action, many more people will die.
How could Yu Mengqing let such a thing happen?
"Since the outbreak began, over a hundred soldiers have died from this poison, including three military doctors."
Having said that, Chu Shiheng looked at Yu Mengqing again and continued:
"The other two will be safe, not because they are not infected, but because they have not been close to the poisoned people."
When Chu Shiheng said this, everyone present understood.
He just wanted to tell Yu Mengqing that anyone who came into contact with a poisonous person would basically be infected.
He didn't want Yu Mengqing to take any risks.
How could Yu Mengqing not understand what Chu Shiheng meant? But as a general, how could she just sit back and do nothing?
What's more, she has the spiritual spring in her hand. As long as they are poisoned, she is sure that she can cure them.
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing asked again: "Are you sure they are poisoned?"
In Yu Mengqing's eyes, any poison in this world can be cured.
It just depends on whether we can solve it in time.
All things in the world are interdependent and mutually exclusive.
Since it can be born, there must be something that can counteract it.
It’s just that some of them are more toxic and there is simply no time to research the antidote.
"I'm not sure. The military doctor who examined them said before they died that their signs didn't look like those of poisoning, but their appearance after death looked like they had been poisoned."
Xue Zhonglan explained on the side.
"Have you found out that it was Man Jingzi who did it?" Yu Mengqing asked again.
For something like this to happen at this time, it is most likely the work of Man Jingzi.
Only they would resort to such conspiracy and trickery.
"It must be them. I can't think of anyone else except them." Chu Shiheng said in a deep voice.
He knew Yang Zangzi. When he knew there was no way to deal with them, he would definitely think of some unconventional ways.
If he guessed correctly, these people who were poisoned now were the victims of his unorthodox methods.
However, Chu Shiheng was very curious about who the expert next to Yang Zangzi was.
When the two fought in the past, Yang Zangzi was seriously injured many times, but he was able to recover quickly.
It was obvious that he had a master of medicine and poison by his side.
Moreover, Yu Mengqing once said that medicine and poison are one and the same.
People who know medicine usually know poison.
So Chu Shiheng was very sure that this person was the one who was making the drugs now.
"If it's Man Jingzi, then it's obvious that Yang Zangzi has a master of medicine and poison by his side." Yu Mengqing said with certainty.
Hearing this, Chu Shiheng nodded without comment.
He thought so too, but who could this person be?
I can't figure it out.
I have to say, this person is really mysterious.
He had fought with Yang Zangzi for many years, but he had never sacrificed his life for him.
Why is he willing to sacrifice his true body at this moment?
In Chu Shiheng's eyes, the fact that he could produce the poison he made himself meant that he wanted to make his identity public.
It seems that even masters can't hold back sometimes.
"No matter who he is, the most important thing right now is the antidote. Without seeing the poisoned person's condition, no matter how much you say, it's useless."
After saying that, Yu Mengqing turned and walked towards the door.
