Chapter 67 Memory Recovery
Heart-Erosion Powder...
Xie Lan felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained away. He muttered these three words absentmindedly, and his eyes went dark.
He had heard of this name. This was the only poison in King Hu's hands that had no antidote.
"Who can detoxify me?"
Xie Lan's eyes were red. "Tell me, I'll go find you!"
"My master can solve it."
"However," Prince Hu said with an embarrassed look on his face, "but my master is missing, and I don't know whether he is alive or dead..."
Xie Lan couldn't bear to listen any longer. He walked past King Hu and entered the room. Looking at Shen Xun lying on the bed with a shallow breath, he whimpered in pain.
Shen Yunzheng wanted to go in, but Qi Yunxi stopped him. She whispered, "Let Dad stay with Mom. Let's go find the Black and White Divine Doctor."
She said in a firm tone: "As long as the Black and White Divine Doctor is still in this world, no matter where he is, I will find him!"
Prince Hu said, "I know a few places my master might go. Take people to find him. Also, arrest Su Yang and Hui Niang immediately!"
His expression turned grim. "I checked the food my sister-in-law ate and found it was poisoned. There was also the sachet on the table. Although I didn't find any Heart-Eroding Powder in it, there was a trace of it on it."
Qi Yunxi replied: "I have sent someone to go."
Prince Hu nodded, "Yun Zheng, come with me... wipe your tears, and come with me to make medicine to delay the onset of the poison."
Shen Yunzheng hurriedly followed.
Qi Yunzhou glanced at Chen Xun and the other man in the room, forcing himself to hold back his tears. He said coldly, "Yun Xi, I'll leave the interrogation of Su Yang and Hui Niang to you. I'll take people to find the Black and White Divine Doctor."
He whispered, "Mom has been poisoned. Dad must be very sad. We have to share his burden."
"Um!"
Qi Yunxi wiped away her tears and nodded heavily.
The people outside the door left one after another, and Xie Lan held Chen Xun's hand until it got dark.
He felt Shen Xun's increasingly cold hands and murmured, "Axun, my heart hurts so much..."
This isn't the first time I've felt this kind of pain. It seems like a long, long time ago, I felt this kind of pain before.
There was no light in the room, and the sky gradually darkened. Xie Lan held her hand in his palm to warm it.
"Lan'er, this is your sister Axun. You must take good care of her from now on."
"Does Lan'er like Axun? How about Mother arrange a marriage for you two?"
"Father, Queen Mother, I want to marry Axun. We will be together for the rest of our lives. I will never take a concubine!"
"Axun, Axun, where are you? Don't hide. You just gave birth and your body is still weak. Don't catch a cold."
"Your Majesty, I have searched every corner of the palace, but I haven't found the Empress."
"Father, where is the Queen Mother? I miss her so much..."
“…”
Xie Lan frowned, the scenes in his dream gave him a splitting headache. It was not until the first ray of sunlight in the early morning shone on his face that Xie Lan slowly opened his eyes.
Shen Xun on the bed still had her eyes closed. Xie Lan pulled her hand and put it on her cheek: "A Xun..."
"My queen..."
After covering Shen Xun with the quilt, he got up and left the room. Qi Yunxi happened to come over to see them. When he saw Xie Lan, Qi Yunxi was stunned.
Why did she feel that the person in front of her was different?
Qi Yunxi asked tentatively: "Dad?"
Xie Lan nodded, "Yeah."
"Where's your eldest brother?"
Qi Yunxi subconsciously stood up and replied, "Big brother has taken people to find the Black and White Divine Doctor."
Xie Lan pondered for a moment, "Send a message to your eldest brother and ask him to go to the Divine Doctor Valley to take a look."
"Divine Doctor Valley?"
Qi Yunxi was surprised. "Uncle said that the Black and White Divine Doctor went traveling. He shouldn't be in the Divine Doctor Valley, right?"
"Let's go look for it," Xie Lan whispered, "Maybe it's there."
Qi Yunxi nodded hesitantly. She handed the food box to Xie Lan and asked, "Want to eat?"
Xie Lan shook his head. "You stay here and take care of your mother. I'll go interrogate Su Yanghe... Have they confessed?"
"No," Qi Yunxi said distressedly, "Hui Niang said she didn't poison anyone, and I also don't think she's that kind of person. After all, it was my mother who rescued her from the Zhong family. Su Yang is a bit suspicious, but he also said he didn't know."
Xie Lan nodded, indicating that he understood.
Hui Niang and Su Yang were locked up in two cells. Not only them, but all the relevant personnel were locked up there.
Su Yang was the most suspicious among them. During his recuperation, he disliked and trusted everyone, but he enthusiastically gave gifts before leaving.
Qi Yunxi asked several men who were seeing off Master Su Song and his apprentice, and they said that Su Yang kept asking Su Song to set off quickly, looking very anxious.
"Pah--"
"Speak or not!"
Another whip hit Su Yang, and he screamed, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know what you are talking about. What poison? I didn't do it!"
Chu Jingyao said coldly, "Jingyan, there's pepper water nearby. Dip the whip in it before whipping!"
"You won't tell me, right? Then let's see which is harder, your words or my whip!"
When Chu Jingyao heard the news that Shen Xun was poisoned and unconscious, she was extremely anxious, but she could not go out to find the Black and White Doctor, nor could she go to Shen Xun to take care of her. She could only come to interrogate Su Yang angrily.
She had no strength in her hands and the whip didn't hurt, so she asked Qi Jingyan to do it for her.
But this man was really stubborn. Even after being whipped several times, he didn't say a word.
Chu Jingyao's eyes were filled with gloom. She looked around, trying to find a more powerful torture device.
"You guys go out for a while."
A cold voice came from behind her. Chu Jingyao turned around subconsciously and saw Xie Lan standing at the door.
Chu Jingyao frowned and glanced at him. She always felt that the Xie Lan she saw today was a little strange.
Xie Lan used to be completely harmless, but now he...
Chu Jingyao didn't know how to describe it, she just felt that he was even more majestic than Prince Su who had become the emperor.
"Jingyan, let's go."
Chu Jingyao called Qi Jingyan and asked him to close the door after going out.
Xie Lan walked up to Su Yang and forced him to look up with two fingers.
Su Yang's face was covered in sweat from the pain. He gritted his teeth and said, "I really don't know what you are talking about. I am an official appointed by the court. Let me go quickly, otherwise..."
"What else?"
Xie Lan chuckled, "Will Prince Su send a hundred thousand troops to rescue you?"
Su Yang choked and said with his neck stiff, "The Emperor will send someone to rescue me!"
When King Su learned that Su Song had temporarily stayed in Youzhou because of Su Yang's injury, he sent someone to deliver a letter to Su Yang at full speed.
The letter asked Su Yang to pay attention to whether there was a woman named "Chen Xun" in the exile team.
Su Yang didn't know why Prince Su wanted to find Chen Xun, but he still sent a message back to Prince Su.
In the next letter he received, Prince Su gave him a secret order, asking him to find a way to deal with Shen Xun and put the blame on Shen Xun's companions.
So, after observing many people, Su Yang chose King Hu.
However, he did not expect that Qi Yunzhou and others did not even suspect King Hu, but he himself was captured because he did not leave Youzhou in time.
Xie Lan didn't comment on what he said.
