Chapter 49: Father didn’t bully you, did he?
Nan Jiao took the prince's hand and felt his pulse. Her brows furrowed tighter and tighter. His pulse was disordered, his breathing was weak, and he looked like he was about to pass away.
She reached out and opened his eyeballs to check, then pulled up his sleeves.
The bedroom was unusually quiet and no one was talking.
“Jiang Nanjiao, how did you treat the prince? If anything happens to him, I will bury you with him!” Before Emperor Jingming arrived, angry voices rang out outside the palace.
At this time.
The East Palace was brightly lit, and the atmosphere was unusually heavy, making people feel inexplicably depressed.
Emperor Jingming rushed into the bedroom and was about to say something harsh, but after meeting the intimidating gaze of the retired emperor, he swallowed the words back into his stomach.
"Father, why are you here?" Emperor Jingming walked forward in a calm tone.
"Such a big thing has happened, why can't I stay here?" The retired emperor glared at him unhappily. It was not proper for an emperor to yell at him.
"Of course, how is Ye Yuan?" Emperor Jingming looked worried. He was training the prince to be his successor and didn't want anything to happen to him.
According to the report, he vomited a lot of blood and eventually fell into a coma with weak breathing.
"Can't you check it yourself?" The retired emperor retorted angrily.
The corners of Emperor Jingming's mouth twitched. Seeing Jiang Nanjiao checking the prince's pulse, he said unhappily, "I think she doesn't know how to treat illnesses at all. That's why she caused the prince to vomit blood."
"Father, we don't know what the situation is now." Zhan Beiheng reminded him with a cold face.
Jiang Nanjiao's daughter is at his house.
She certainly wouldn't dare to do anything to hurt her eldest brother.
Emperor Jingming: “…”
How did he speak for Jiang Nanjiao?
A moment.
Nan Jiao finished the examination, stood up and walked towards everyone, "The prince has been poisoned by a complex and severe poison. If he is not detoxified within ten days, he will die."
Everyone present was horrified.
"Princess Jin, do you know what kind of poison it is?" asked Old Bai. He had been in the East Palace the whole time, so he was naturally the first to know that the prince was vomiting blood.
I felt something was wrong at the time, and after taking my pulse I discovered it was the poison taking effect.
But the chronic poison in his body has not yet erupted.
He was proficient in medicine but not in poison, so he had to ask Mo Lan to go to Prince Jin's Mansion to inform Zhan Beiheng and Nan Jiao.
"This poison is called the separation of joy and sorrow. The poisoned person will not feel any discomfort, but will be in a good mood. Once the poison takes effect, if it is not treated in time, it will be a tragedy of separation of yin and yang."
In her previous life, she not only knew medicine, but also liked to study all kinds of strange and rare poisons. Otherwise, she would not be able to tell the joys and sorrows in the prince's life today.
I didn't expect that there was such a poison in this alien world.
"You were treating the prince, so why didn't you notice that he was poisoned by something else?" Emperor Jingming asked coldly with a questioning look on his face, filled with anger.
The prince only has ten days left!
"This poison can only be detected when it breaks out. It is one of the top ten poisons that can kill people." Nan Jiao said neither humbly nor arrogantly. She was very curious about how the prince was poisoned.
These days.
Mr. Bai almost always stayed in the East Palace, and she would come to give him acupuncture every day.
Ever since she found out that he had a chronic poison in his body last time, everything the prince ate, wore and used was carefully checked, and no plants were placed in his bedroom.
Emperor Jingming was furious. He looked at Zhan Beiheng and asked, "Have you found the person who poisoned the prince?"
"No." Zhan Beiheng said in a deep voice.
He had carefully interrogated the people in the Eastern Palace.
The eldest brother also said that everyone here is his people and it is impossible for them to poison him secretly.
"Take your people and investigate thoroughly now. The prince has not left the East Palace in the past few days. The person who poisoned him must be here!" Emperor Jingming said angrily with a sullen face.
"Your son will definitely find the person!" Zhan Beiheng's dark eyes were filled with fierce murderous intent. He wanted to see who dared to poison his elder brother at this time.
Nan Jiao glanced at the people present. The retired emperor and Emperor Jingming did not usually come to the East Palace, so it couldn't be them.
Zhan Beiheng and Zhan Chuyue are even more impossible.
Feng Qingqing is the Crown Princess and Mo Lan is the personal bodyguard.
They can't.
Then there can only be maids or eunuchs serving the prince.
"Can you help big brother detoxify?" Zhan Beiheng walked up to her. It seemed that Old Bai didn't understand this poison called the separation of joy and sorrow.
"Yes." Nan Jiao said in a clear and confident voice.
When Zhan Beiheng heard the word "can", he finally felt relieved and said, "Just tell me what you need."
"I want five very poisonous substances." Nan Jiao said seriously.
"What poison?"
"The sooner we find the poisonous snakes, bees, spiders, centipedes, and scorpions, the sooner I can detoxify the prince," said Nan Jiao.
Zhan Beiheng called Mo Ran and Mo Li and asked them to take people to find the five poisonous creatures immediately.
Nan Jiao looked at the people in the bedroom and said, "Everyone, please go back. Too many people will cause poor air circulation and it's not good for the prince."
Emperor Jingming: “…”
Is she chasing them away?
The Emperor looked at Nan Jiao and said sternly, "Help the Crown Prince detoxify. The royal family will not let you down."
I didn't expect this girl to be so capable.
She is worthy of being Old Man Jiang’s granddaughter.
"Thank you, Grandfather Emperor." Nan Jiao smiled happily.
Soon, she, Bai Lao, Feng Qingqing and Zhan Chuyue were the only ones left in the bedroom.
"It's all my fault. I didn't take good care of the prince. Everything he used has been inspected. How could he get poisoned?" Feng Qingqing said with red eyes.
She was really scared when the prince vomited blood.
"Sister-in-law, this is not your fault. We are in the open and the enemy is in the dark." Zhan Chuyue patted her shoulder and comforted her.
"But I..." Feng Qingqing looked at the pale-faced man with tears in her eyes. He should have been handsome, elegant, and noble.
Now he is lying in bed unconscious.
How could she not blame herself?
"Think carefully about whether Big Brother has come into contact with anything special these days, and who has he met?" Nan Jiao said solemnly.
Zhan Beiheng went to check on the palace maids in the East Palace, but there might not be any clues.
The other party dared to poison at this time, he must have made preparations in advance.
Feng thought about it carefully and said, "I haven't come into contact with anything special. I met three ministers yesterday, but I didn't stay for long."
Nan Jiao had a thoughtful expression on her face and was very confused.
She was sure that the three ministers would never dare to poison him.
…
Prince Jin's Palace.
After Nan Jiao entered the yard, she saw a small candle lit in the house. Ruyi was dozing off at the door. When she heard footsteps, she quickly opened her eyes.
"Princess..." Ruyi stood up immediately.
"Is Baoer asleep?"
"Probably not yet, the young master is here too." Ruyi said.
Nan Jiao was surprised. Why were they still awake so late?
She motioned Ruyi to go and have a rest, opened the door and walked in, and saw two kids sitting at the table, dozing off with their chins in their hands and their heads shaking.
When she saw Bao Er almost hit her head on the table, Nan Jiao quickly ran over to hold her head.
"Mom..." Baoer called softly. After hearing about the accident, she was very worried, so she sat here with her brother and waited for her.
Yoyo slowly opened her eyes, her eyes gradually became clearer, and she picked up the pen on the table to write.
[Aunt Nan, are you okay? Did your father bully you? ]
Nan Jiao's mouth twitched, and she smiled and said, "No, he just took me to see your uncle."
Yoyo heaved a sigh of relief when she heard her say that.
At that time, her father pulled her away in a rage, thinking that he would bully her.
Seeing that it was getting late, Nan Jiao carried the two children to bed and let them sleep together. The two were really sleepy, and knowing that she was fine, they fell asleep as soon as they hit the bed.
After staring at their peaceful sleeping faces for a while, Nan Jiao put out the candle, quietly left the room and went to the next room.
…
After Zhan Beiheng returned to the palace, he saw that his son was not in his yard, so he went straight to Yuqing Courtyard.
When he arrived, the yard was quiet. Jiang Nanjiao's room was pitch black. There were candles in the next room. He pushed the door open without thinking much.
As soon as he stepped one foot in, he felt he was in a dilemma whether to go in or not.
Jiang Nanjiao fell asleep in the bathtub.
