Rong Xiu flew in front of the emperor, raised his arm to block the little eunuch's attack, and then used his hand as a knife to slash at the little eunuch, forcing the little eunuch to retreat step by step.
Eunuch Fu was almost frightened to death by this sudden change. This little eunuch had followed him for several years and had always been law-abiding. How could he suddenly change his face?
The virtuous concubine was so frightened that she screamed and rolled to the emperor's side, screaming: "Protect the emperor! Protect the emperor! There is an assassin——"
The young eunuch was no match for Rong Xiu and was at a disadvantage after just ten moves. Seeing that he could not escape, the young eunuch suddenly raised his hand and a large amount of powder sprinkled out from his palm.
At the critical moment, Rong Xiu's internal force gushed out and turned into a strong wind that blew the powder back.
The young eunuch was caught off guard and subconsciously raised his hands to cover his mouth and nose. At the same time, Rong Xiu's flying kick also arrived.
After kicking the young eunuch to the ground, Rong Xiu instinctively looked at Hua Yuanzhao. The two exchanged glances before restraining themselves.
Everyone watched with lingering fear as the young eunuch was taken away. Just as they were about to speak, the emperor, who was sitting on the highest seat, suddenly leaned forward and fell to the ground without any warning.
The room suddenly became chaotic, and in the chaos, Yuan Zhao was pushed forward to check the emperor's pulse.
Compared with the last time the pulse was taken, the poison this time was more fierce. It spread into the emperor's lungs in a moment and wreaked havoc in his body.
Before Hua Yuanzhao could explain, dozens of silver needles had already poured out from his fingertips and penetrated into the emperor's body.
When the queen saw this, she wanted to ask something, but was stopped by the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo had a sullen face and whispered, "Miss Hua is not someone who doesn't explain herself. I guess the situation is urgent and there is no time to say more."
The queen calmed herself down, and with the help of the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, she slowly stood up and looked around.
Wherever she looked, there was chaos. Concubine Xian was crying and making a fuss, wishing she could tear Hua Yuanzhao off the emperor.
Hua Yuanzhao was so annoyed that he finally found some energy to explain, "The emperor's body is in danger of being poisoned. It's time to save him! Family members, please leave for now."
She was really anxious and subconsciously used the words she usually used when rescuing patients in her previous life.
The virtuous concubine was blocked by her and became furious. She was just an ugly woman who Su'er didn't want, but she really thought she was a miracle doctor!
How old is she, and how many medical books has she read? Is she so flattered by hearing some praises?
"The eldest daughter of the Hua family! You are so bold!" Concubine Xian stared angrily, "How dare you use needles on the emperor at will! If you damage the emperor's body, you will bear the consequences!"
The Queen could no longer tolerate this. The medical skills of the eldest daughter of the Hua family were recognized by the entire Imperial Hospital. Since the situation was critical, there was nothing wrong with her providing first aid.
She glanced at Eunuch Fu who understood and shouted in panic, "Silence!"
His voice was sharp, instantly shocking the whole place. The servants in the room knelt on the ground in shock, and no one dared to speak again.
"Xianfei," the queen said calmly, "Xianfei failed to control the palace servants, causing the emperor to become seriously ill due to the poison."
Concubine Xian's face suddenly changed. Looking at the Queen's attitude, did she want her to take the blame?
How can she bear such a big hat?
"You are now confined to Jiaxi Palace, and will be punished after the Emperor wakes up!" The Queen gave the order, and ordered people to hold Concubine Xian down despite her crying.
Hua Yuanzhao had no time to take care of this side and was only focused on first aid.
Fortunately, the imperial physician arrived very quickly and helped her relieve a lot of the burden. Even so, by the time the poison was temporarily controlled, more than half a day had passed.
Hua Yuanzhao felt hot and tired, sweating all over. After she removed the needle, her waist ached so much that she could hardly stand up straight.
After finally standing up straight, he couldn't help but stumble, his vision went dark, and his consciousness was briefly interrupted.
When she opened her eyes again, she was lying on a soft couch beside her, with an imperial physician taking her pulse.
Doctor Wu saw that she had woken up, so he slowly withdrew his hand and said with some emotion: "Miss Hua is a kind-hearted doctor, and she is truly a role model for us."
When the Queen heard that she had woken up, she also paid some attention to her and asked with concern, "Is the eldest daughter of the Hua family feeling unwell? Why did she suddenly faint?"
Could it be that Miss Hua was also poisoned?
"Your Majesty, Miss Hua worked too hard and her body couldn't take it, so she fainted from overwork." Doctor Wu said, his face full of admiration.
We are lucky that the eldest daughter of the Hua family is here today, otherwise by the time they arrive from the Imperial Hospital, the emperor would be in critical condition and beyond saving.
Hua Yuanzhao silently swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and smiled awkwardly at the queen.
In her opinion, it was probably because she had been working non-stop for a while and was already tired, and she didn't sleep all night last night, so she fainted due to low blood sugar after being exhausted.
The queen was relieved and looked at Hua Yuanzhao eagerly: "Then the emperor's poison..."
Hua Yuanzhao immediately restrained his expression and said solemnly: "The poison has been controlled for the time being."
What remains is detoxification and conditioning. Although the process of clearing out the remaining toxins will be relatively long, it should not be a big problem.
Having learned the lesson from treating the queen before, Hua Yuanzhao did not dare to be careless this time. He discussed with several imperial doctors for a long time before finalizing the prescription.
Just looking at the herbs on the prescription, the imperial doctors were puzzled again: "Miss Hua, can this vegetarian jade grass be replaced with other herbs?"
"But what's wrong with that?" Hua Yuanzhao was puzzled. It was really hard to find a substitute for Su Yucao. Even if one was found, it might not be as effective in detoxifying as Su Yucao.
"There's nothing wrong with that." Doctor Wu said hesitantly.
"Then why change it?" The Queen looked at Doctor Wu suspiciously.
Doctor Wu gritted his teeth and said with a wry smile, "Ordinary medicinal herbs are easy to find, but I'm afraid it's hard to find the kind of Su Yucao that meets the requirements in the capital."
Hua Yuanzhao was puzzled. She had been taking care of the clinic's affairs for some time and had inquired a lot about the news about the medicinal materials of this era.
Although this Su Yu grass is rare, it is not extremely rare. How could it not be found in the capital?
"Then where can we find it?" the Queen asked seriously, "I will order someone to look for it right away."
The imperial physician organized his words in his mind and said hesitantly, "This Suyu grass can only maintain its medicinal effect to the greatest extent if it is used as medicine right after it is picked. If it is dried before being sent here..."
He sighed, a worried look on his face: "I'm afraid the medicine will only have less than 10% of its effect left."
Hua Yuanzhao held his forehead and said, "A good cook cannot cook without rice. How can we save people without medicine?"
"Although this medicine is rare, it is not very useful under normal circumstances, so the Imperial Hospital only prepares some for emergencies." Doctor Wu glanced at the Queen and said helplessly: "According to the emperor's dragon body, if he wants to completely detoxify, I'm afraid he still needs fresh Su Yu grass."
Hua Yuanzhao was speechless and looked at the queen silently, waiting for the latter to make a decision.
The queen was also anxious, and said, "We can't take the emperor to pick this Su Yu grass, can we?"
Isn't this ridiculous!
