Chapter 297: Suspicion of One's Own People

Chen Tianqi looked at Mo Yunzhu, and then said weakly: "Then you can try it."

Mo Yunzhu asked Eunuch Song to open the thin golden quilt. Under the quilt, Chen Tianqi was wearing light golden silk underwear, but it was too loose.

Eunuch Song carefully opened his clothes according to Mo Yunzhu's request, revealing Chen Tianqi's skinny and pale body.

Mo Yunzhu was filled with hatred, but she didn't dare to show any hatred at all and forced herself to remain calm like an ordinary doctor.

Mo Yunzhu held the long needle and said in a low voice: "Then I'll start." As she spoke, the silver needles were inserted into the acupuncture points of Chen Tianqi's body.

Eunuch Song stood by his side to protect him. Zhuo Hongli stepped back a little but did not leave.

As more silver needles were inserted, the expression on Chen Tianqi's face changed.

Sometimes he looked painful, sometimes surprised, and then frowned, and from time to time he uttered some unclear syllables.

Half a minute later, Mo Yunzhu looked at Chen Tianqi, who was full of needles, and asked, "Emperor, how do you feel? Are your bones still sore?"

Chen Tianqi had been keeping his eyes closed, but now he opened them, looked at Mo Yunzhu and frowned, "The soreness and weakness seem to have disappeared, but there is still some pain."

Zhuo Hong immediately asked: "Your Majesty, do you feel better than before the acupuncture? Or is it too painful?"

Chen Tianqi immediately said, "Much better. I would rather be in pain than feel sore and weak. Miss Mo is very good at acupuncture. I wonder if she can still relieve the pain for me?"

Finally, there was a hint of human pleading in his old eyes.

"Your Majesty, this is the first time I give you an acupuncture injection. I will adjust it slowly afterwards, and it may make you feel better." Mo Yunzhu said.

Zhuo Hongli thought of his previous situation and nodded immediately: "Not bad, Yun Zhu's skills are also improved through exploration. Your Majesty, don't worry, it will get better."

"This is only a temporary solution, not a permanent cure, right?" Chen Tianqi had a little hope, but then he thought that this was poisoning and it would never get better without detoxification. Did he have to live with needles inserted in his veins every day?

"Yun Zhu, the emperor was actually poisoned by a strange poison. Do you have any way to detoxify him?" Zhuo Hongli said.

Mo Yunzhu frowned and said, "In fact, when I inserted the needle, I already felt that there was toxin in the body of the emperor, and the toxin had already invaded the bone marrow. It would be extremely difficult to detoxify."

Everyone's faces changed, and Chen Tianqi asked, "Then how long do I have left to live?"

Mo Yunzhu looked at his old face and said, "Although the poison has already invaded the bone marrow, it is a chronic poison and is not fatal. It just makes the bones sore and weak. How long he can live depends on the emperor's own physical condition. If he eats well, sleeps well, and has enough nutrition, he can still live a long time."

"Haha, how can you eat and sleep well like this?" Chen Tianqi almost laughed. He was tortured every day by not being able to eat or sleep well. In just over two months, he had gone from a normal person's body to this horrible appearance.

Eunuch Song immediately asked anxiously, "Miss Mo, is there any good way to make the emperor eat well and sleep well?"

Mo Yunzhu thought for a moment and said, "My acupuncture technique can relieve pain, and combined with medication, it should be able to control the time when the toxicity attacks.

For example, if you have been in constant pain before, if you take acupuncture and medication, it may only occur every two or three days. After each attack, just repeat the procedure and you should feel better. "

"Really?" Chen Tianqi's eyes lit up again. If he could survive, he naturally didn't want to die.

"We have to test it a few times first." Mo Yunzhu smiled bitterly. "After all, I have never heard of your poison, Your Majesty. Do you know how the poisoning occurred?"

Chen Tianqi and Eunuch Song's faces instantly turned gloomy.

Eunuch Song said in a deep voice: "In fact, we don't know much about it. The emperor was fine more than two months ago, but suddenly one day he started to complain of bone pain. At first, we thought it was a sprained meridian or something, and he would be fine after a few days of rest.

Unexpectedly, the condition became more and more serious day by day and there was no way to get better. But at that time, we didn't know it was poisoning. Several doctors came to examine me but they couldn't find the cause. They just said it might be because of my old age and some diseases would only take advantage of the situation when I am old.

However, it took too long and we all suspected that it was poisoning. It was not until Brother Zhuo came the day before yesterday that we confirmed it was poisoning.

All I can say is that this kind of poison cannot be detected by silver needles. Even the imperial physician cannot detect it, let alone know how the poisoning occurred.

The former emperor's daily life and diet were very strict. Now it is speculated that a spy came in and poisoned the food.

Normally, food is tasted before being allowed to be consumed by the emperor, but even if this poison is tasted, it is not immediately known that it is poisonous."

"Are there any servants in this villa who have the same illness as the emperor?" Mo Yunzhu asked.

Eunuch Song shook his head and said, "No, I have checked everyone, so now I am very suspicious that it may not be food."

Mo Yunzhu shook her head and said, "This kind of chronic poison should be colorless and tasteless. It is usually most convenient to poison the food. If not the food, then it must be in the environment around the emperor, such as the incense burner, potted plants, or even the things he wears every day. The emperor was poisoned imperceptibly."

Eunuch Song listened very seriously, and then said, "I have checked various things more than once, and I really didn't find anything suspicious. Miss Mo, why don't you help the emperor look for it?"

Mo Yunzhu looked around. The dormitory was spacious and monotonous. There was not even an incense burner lit. The windows were open and the mountain air was fresh.

Chen Tianqi was not wearing any objects on his body. Mo Yunzhu wondered how Jun Huolan's people had poisoned this protected animal before. She was almost impressed.

Mo Yunzhu looked at Eunuch Song, who was stunned for a moment, then his old face twitched a few times and asked, "Miss Mo, do you suspect me?"

Chen Tianqi suddenly started coughing and said, "Nonsense, absolutely impossible."

Mo Yunzhu immediately shook her head and said, "Of course it wasn't Eunuch Song. I just felt that whoever had the ability to poison the emperor silently and to poison him to this extent would definitely not succeed once or twice."

Mo Yunzhu lowered her eyes. In fact, the poison she prepared would only work once. As the poison took effect and merged with the bone marrow, the condition became more and more serious.

But she just wanted to give them a false impression and make them suspicious.

Eunuch Song and Zhuo Hongli both looked unhappy.

"It seems that there is indeed a spy in this villa." A cold and murderous look appeared in Eunuch Song's old eyes.

"I can try to make the emperor feel better, but if I don't find out where the poison comes from, if he gets poisoned a few more times, I'm afraid I won't be able to calm him down." Mo Yunzhu thought, let you guys cause chaos among yourselves first, it would be best if you kill yourselves.

I just hope that Xu Haoqin’s father, Eunuch An, can hide well.

But thinking that Jun Huolan also had someone in this villa, he didn't know who it was and whether he had left after poisoning her.
