Chapter 714: Poison? (Update 1)
"If he had used my medicine, his pulse wouldn't be like this today."
Ye Chutang shook his head gently.
"Perhaps Lord Fan still has some complaints about me because of what happened before, so... he doesn't trust my prescription."
Everyone present understood what was said.
——If Ye Chutang had not performed an autopsy in public at the Ministry of Justice’s prison, Fan Chengzhuo would probably not have lost his position as Minister of Justice so quickly.
He was on guard against Ye Chutang, so it was normal that he was unwilling to use her medicine.
"Then, then this..." Zhao Xuanping didn't have much to say about this. His only worry was whether Fan Chengzhuo could wake up. "In this case, Lord Fan's poison must have already invaded his lungs. It has been delayed for so long... I wonder if Second Miss Ye has any other solution?"
Ye Chutang hesitated for a moment.
"His condition is indeed much more serious than the last time I saw him. It's probably too late to prescribe medicine now. Let's give him acupuncture first. If he can wake up, there is still hope for him."
Eunuch Li heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and hurriedly said, "That's great! Miss Ye Er, please help with the treatment!"
Ye Chutang nodded, then asked them to carry Fan Chengzhuo to the side and lay his body flat.
Then, she took out the needle and silk, and her slender white fingers gently picked up the silver needle with a cold glow, which was reflected in her dark and calm eyes.
She inserted the needle calmly, seemingly slowly, but actually very quickly.
But in the blink of an eye, Fan Chengzhuo's forehead and wrists had been pierced with several silver needles.
Xie Anjun was watching nearby.
This was the first time he saw Ye Chutang giving acupuncture with his own eyes. He felt dazzled, frightened and uneasy.
Fan Chengzhuo kept his eyes closed from beginning to end, with no intention of waking up.
Xie Anjun couldn't help but secretly wonder: Fan Chengzhuo is already like this, could he... be dying soon?
If the deadline is really approaching, no matter what Ye Chutang does, it will probably be useless.
It would be nice if it was like that, to just die like that, without being able to say anything...
"Bring me a bowl."
A warm and clear voice sounded.
Eunuch Li reacted very quickly. He responded immediately, sent someone to get a porcelain bowl, and handed it over with both hands.
Ye Chutang placed the bowl next to Fan Chengzhuo's hand, and then took out the silver needle from his fingertips.
A drop of black blood quickly seeped out and dripped silently into the white porcelain bowl.
"Is this poison!?"
Zhao Xuanping was stunned and shocked.
Fan Chengzhuo was really poisoned! And he was actually cleared out by Ye Chutang!
He was a little unsure before, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't help but look at Ye Chutang again, feeling both moved and admiring.
Although he had witnessed Ye Chutang's medical skills a long time ago, every time he saw her so calmly deal with the situation and cure patients, he was still shocked.
She is so young, but already she is beyond the reach of countless people...
Ye Chutang then took out the remaining silver needles from Fan Chengzhuo's fingertips one by one.
After a while, half a bowl of black blood had accumulated in the white porcelain bowl, and there was a faint and strange smell that was hard to describe.
Zhao Xuanping took a closer look, sniffed it, frowned in surprise and asked, "What kind of poison is this? I don't think I've ever heard of it before."
Ye Chutang didn't even raise his head and pulled Fan Chengzhuo's sleeve again.
Eunuch Li was surprised and asked, "What's going on?"
I saw a dark blue blood line on Fan Chengzhuo's forearm, as if it was buried under the skin and would burst out at any time.
It's really terrifying to look at.
Zhao Xuanping was also surprised, and couldn't help but look at Ye Chutang inquiringly, "Second Miss Ye, this is... this looks..."
He is considered to be knowledgeable, but this doesn't look like poison at all!
Ye Chutang also paused, frowning slightly.
Zhao Xuanping noticed her movements and felt something was wrong. He carefully asked, "Why? Miss Ye Er also thinks... this is not right?"
Ye Chutang paused for a moment and shook his head.
"I have never seen such a situation before. I only felt Mr. Fan's pulse that day. Seeing that he was in a bad mood and weak, I did not keep him for long. I wrote a prescription and sent him away."
"Then this——"
Zhao Xuanping felt more and more that something was wrong.
Eunuch Li looked between the two for a moment, somewhat confused, and asked curiously, "What? Is it very difficult?"
Even Ye Chutang said so, what should I do?
If someone doesn't wake up...
Zhao Xuanping did not answer him immediately. After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly reached out his hand with a serious face and carefully touched the dark blue blood line on Fan Chengzhuo's arm.
This action made everyone even more confused.
"Doctor Zhao?" Eunuch Li spoke in a low voice, wanting to ask something. However, before he could open his mouth, Zhao Xuanping looked at Ye Chutang first, with a look of surprise and uncertainty.
"Miss Ye Er, could this be, could this be..."
His tone was difficult, as if he was struggling over whether he should say those words.
Ye Chutang raised his eyes.
Zhao Xuanping took a deep breath, "Why does he look like he's been poisoned?"
As soon as the words fell, the whole hall fell into deathly silence.
Eunuch Li suddenly opened his eyes wide, "What!?"
Xie Anbai narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not move.
Zheng Baosu and Zhao Zhe were both confused. Gu? What kind of Gu?
Only Xie Anjun's mind suddenly became tense!
He almost immediately straightened up and looked towards Fan Chengzhuo, wanting to get a clear look.
But the distance was too far, and there were several people surrounding Fan Chengzhuo, blocking his view, so he could not see anything at all.
Xie Anjun felt like he was being scratched by a cat.
insanity!?
Is Fan Chengzhuo actually poisoned?!
Doesn't that mean it's obvious that it was the person behind him who did it!?
Could it be that... that person had made up his mind to abandon Fan Chengzhuo, the abandoned pawn! ?
But Fan Chengzhuo has always been loyal to his master! Xie Anjun had tried and argued with him several times before, and he was absolutely sure of this - even if Fan Chengzhuo gave up his life, he would never do anything to let that master down!
But now how...
Xie Anbai seemed to have noticed something and glanced over here.
That look filled with scrutiny and suspicion immediately sent a chill down Xie Anjun's spine!
He immediately lowered his head and eyes, continuing to pretend nothing had happened, for fear that Xie Anbai would notice something.
But there was still a huge storm in his heart - did Fan Chengzhuo know that he was poisoned?
Almost instantly, Xie Anjun gave a positive answer.
It was impossible for Fan Chengzhuo not to see such obvious signs! He knew he was abandoned!
That's why he let his health deteriorate day by day and even refused to hire an imperial physician!
Is Fan Chengzhuo... willing to die?!
So, what does he want to exchange his life for?
Xie Anjun turned his eyes stiffly and finally looked at Zheng Baosu.
An absurd guess came to my mind.
Xie Anjun's hands trembled slightly.
Could it be that Fan Chengzhuo was going to...
