Chapter 295 Prohibition
The emperor replied fluently, "I have already sent someone to inform Prince Jingnan, but it is really difficult to send the talisman. The person I sent traveled day and night, so I am afraid it will be a little late for him to arrive in Jingnan."
The emperor's performance was so flawless that Ran Chenghong couldn't find any flaws. Worried about Lin Jinghan's safety, he didn't waste any more time, grabbed Ouyang Ji's shoulder with one hand, and planned to teleport away.
The emperor didn't expect that the Medicine King was also a Martial Saint, and he secretly became more vigilant.
At this moment, Ran Zizhen ran over quickly, "Dad, you promised to accompany me to find Master, are you going now?"
Ran Chenghong pondered for a moment, grabbed Ran Zizhen with one hand, and the three of them disappeared from the spot together.
A group of imperial doctors were still surrounding Lin Jinghan. Lin Jinghan didn't want to cause their deaths, so she controlled herself and didn't let the poison worsen.
The Medicine King and his two companions appeared outside the restricted area of the imperial palace, and the emperor personally led the Medicine King to the palace where Lin Jinghan temporarily lived.
As the door opened, Lin Jinghan stared at the person who walked in from behind the screen without blinking: He knew that the emperor would definitely be able to invite the King of Medicine over.
"Jinghan girl, what's wrong with you?" The King of Medicine was slightly shocked when he saw Lin Jinghan's lifeless face. Without any delay, he grabbed Lin Jinghan's hand to feel her pulse.
"Master, are you okay?" Ran Zizheng saw how weak she looked, and carefully took her hand, wishing he could take her place.
Lin Jinghan tried hard to force a smile, and it seemed that she didn't even have the strength to speak, but she winked at the Medicine King at an angle where the emperor couldn't see.
The King of Medicine was stunned for two seconds, then he put his heart back in his stomach and treated her in a serious manner.
Finally, he put down his hand, his face solemn, "Who is so cruel to give you such a strong poison!"
He turned around and glanced at the people in the room, and said angrily:
"You're a bunch of good-for-nothings! You're not just keeping her alive, you're delaying her recovery. Get out of here!"
The imperial doctors hurriedly looked at the emperor. The emperor glanced at them, and the imperial doctors hurriedly retreated.
The Medicine King's expression darkened even further as he looked at the others in the room. "And you all, get out! Don't interfere with my efforts to save lives!"
At this moment, the emperor waved his hand, and soon only Lin Jinghan, Ran Chenghong, Ran Zizhen and the emperor were left in the room.
The Medicine King looked at the Emperor with dissatisfaction, not giving him any face at all, and directly drove him away, "The poison-making techniques of my Medicine King Valley are never passed on to outsiders. Even if you are the emperor, you cannot stay in the room and learn secretly."
Anyone with real ability will not tolerate others disobeying him. The emperor was well aware of this truth and did not care about it. He comforted Lin Jinghan with a few words and left.
Finally, there were no outsiders in the room. The Medicine King casually set up a barrier and then asked with confidence, "Girl, what are you doing?"
Lin Jinghan sat up with difficulty, "Senior Medicine King, I'm under house arrest."
Ran Zizhen looked furious, "Master, who put you under house arrest? Was it the emperor?"
Lin Jinghan nodded, not hiding the emperor's feelings for her. "The emperor said before that he wanted me to be his queen. I guess he hasn't given up yet."
The Medicine King pondered, "So you poisoned yourself so that I can help you out?"
Lin Jinghan briefly explained to them the reasons and consequences of her coming to Beijing.
"I was confident I could convince the Emperor not to embarrass the Lin Company, but I never imagined he was planning to put me under house arrest. I poisoned myself to force him to come see me. After discovering his true intentions, I came up with the idea of inviting you here."
"No wonder the emperor was willing to use the teleportation talisman to come to me in person. It turns out that even heroes cannot resist the temptation of beautiful women." Ran Chenghong joked.
Lin Jinghan sighed helplessly, "Senior Medicine King, you know, I'm already married. I have no plans to remarry at the moment, and I never will. Don't make fun of me now that I'm like this."
Ran Chenghong stopped joking and said seriously:
"How do you want me to help you? Does King Jingnan know about your situation?"
"Azhan probably doesn't know yet, and I don't know why. Ever since I entered the Dali Temple, the telepathy between him and me has disappeared." Lin Jinghan was worried.
"Is this true?" Ran Chenghong became more cautious. He took out the alchemy cauldron and took a drop of Lin Jinghan's blood to study it carefully.
After a while, he took back the alchemy cauldron, frowning, "Someone has placed a restriction on you. It's very powerful, even I can't break it."
"Even Senior Medicine King, you can't break it?" Lin Jinghan was astonished.
"I haven't come into contact with any powerful masters in the time since I came to Beijing! Of those I've come into contact with, I can tell their cultivation levels are not higher than mine! And what kind of restriction is this that I didn't even notice?"
Even the medical space couldn’t detect it!
"This restriction is probably designed to block telepathy between couples recognized by the Heavenly Dao. Your cultivation level hasn't reached that level yet, so it's normal that you can't detect it." Ran Chenghong frowned and thought for a long time, then sighed:
"Jinghan, there's something strange about this. I'm afraid there's a big conspiracy. Also, I can't help you with the restriction on your body. If it's not lifted, even if you go to the ends of the earth, the person who placed the restriction on you will be able to find you immediately."
Lin Jinghan was quite depressed. "So, it's useless for me to leave the capital now..."
Ran Zizhen shook Ran Chenghong and said, "Our Medicine King Valley is protected by a natural formation. Is it not possible to go to our Medicine King Valley?"
Ran Chenghong shook his head.
Lin Jinghan pondered for a moment, and while mobilizing the medical space to detoxify herself, she asked:
"Senior Medicine King, besides being able to locate me, is there any harm to this restriction?"
"This restriction blocks the Heavenly Dao's perception of you. As long as this restriction exists, you will not be able to break through to the Grandmaster level." Ran Chenghong said.
Lin Jinghan closed her eyes and made up her mind, "I understand, Senior Medicine King. The palace is not safe. Once I'm cured of the poison, you can leave. Go to Xingqing and find Ah Zhan for me. Tell him that I'm fine. I'll be staying in the capital for some time before returning. Don't tell him to worry."
"But the emperor said that the King of Jingnan is in Jingnan!" Ran Zizhen was puzzled, and then he understood, "He lied to us!"
"The emperor has something to hide, so it's normal for him to lie to us." Ran Chenghong was not surprised by this and looked at Lin Jinghan worriedly.
"What about you? What will you do?"
Lin Jinghan deliberately put on a relaxed smile. "At the moment, it seems that the emperor has no intention of harming me. It's better to stay still than to risk escaping and angering him. It's better to stay here and see what he is going to do. If the enemy comes, I will fight him with my own army and cover him with earth. If all else fails, I can even poison him!"
Ran Chenghong shook his head in disapproval.
"This emperor is not as simple as he seems. On the way to the palace with him, I tried to poison him, but failed."
