Chapter three hundred and twenty third strange

The imperial physician was very sure of his diagnosis. When the Empress Dowager investigated the poisoning incident, he was one of the participants. "Did Your Majesty feel sleepy all the time, but she can't sleep well? She has weak body, loses appetite, prone to sweating, and has a slight numbness in her toes... Well, these are all early symptoms. Your Majesty will become more and more tired, and she will sleep longer and longer..."

"Is there a cure method?" Han Ruzi asked.

The imperial physician knelt on the ground and replied: "If it is in the capital, there is a way to relieve the symptoms and then treat it slowly. Jincheng lacks medical treatment, so the empress do not dare to make a light assertion."

Han Ruzi said, if the Imperial Hospital had a way to detoxify, the original Emperor Si and later Prince Yong would not have died.

He is easily distracted now. After hearing that he was poisoned, he was only startled and his thoughts gradually turned to other things. At this time, he was carefully recalling the orphanage of Prince Yong. He vaguely remembered that he was a fat child, somewhat similar to King Ying, but he couldn't remember more details.

He tried hard to recall, as if this matter was very important, and he completely forgot about the danger that was near.

The imperial physician looked up at the emperor and whispered: "Your Majesty."

"Well..." Han Ruzi's thoughts returned to the present.

"Your Majesty also came to the city to watch the battle a few days ago, which means that the poisoned person must be still in the city soon after he was poisoned."

"Can those who poison can also detoxify?"

"It's very likely."

"It seems useless to determine that Concubine Cui is the envoy."

"Of course, Concubine Cui would not make drugs. The maid she brought into the palace at that time was the source of the poison. It is said that she was a disciple of the "Ghost Mountain Gate" in the south. This maid was executed that night. Unfortunately, if she could tell the formula of the poison..." The imperial physician shook his head and suddenly found that the direction of his attention was wrong, so he hurriedly kowtowed.

Han Ruzi didn't notice at all. He could only think about one thing now, and he couldn't think for too long, but his judgment was still keen, "Transfer to Liu Jie."

"Yes, I'd better prescribe a prescription for Your Majesty."

Han Ruzi nodded and agreed, but he did not want to take medicine.

The imperial physician stepped down and Liu Jie came in.

Han Ruzi almost forgot the reason why she called Zhongsijian in. She stared at him for a while before saying, "Did you guess this be poisoned?"

Liu Jie knelt down, "Your Majesty's symptoms are very similar to those of Emperor Si at that time..."

"But you didn't say it right away."

Liu Jie kowtowed, "I'm not sure, so I have to ask the imperial physician to diagnose it, and Miss Meng has been by His Majesty's side..."

"She wants to kill me, so there is no need to poison me."

Many times, Meng E is only by his side. With her skills, she can easily kill the emperor.

Liu Jie just kowtowed and said nothing more. The facts were there. Whether he admitted it depends entirely on the emperor's attitude, rather than his persuasion.

Han Ruzi's thoughts were floating again, "Let's do this for now, I will never die for a while."

The orphans of Emperor Si and Prince Yong both died after being poisoned for one month. Han Ruzi had only two days of symptoms, and he couldn't get up. His physical weakness directly brought mental fatigue, just like those elderly people who had lived for too long and were plagued by illness, entering the stage of putting life and death aside. This is not free and easy, but fatigue.

Liu Jie suddenly burst into tears, and suddenly felt something was wrong, so he forced himself to leave the room.

At some point, the sound of the piano came again, and Han Ruzi felt that his mind was much clearer, so he took a nap for a while, and when he opened his eyes, Zhang Youcai was wiping his sweat. King Donghai and Cui Teng stood aside, looking at him with complicated eyes.

"When is it?" Han Ruzi asked, and the sound of the piano had disappeared.

"Just just after noon, Your Majesty will eat something." Zhang Youcai said.

It turned out that he hadn't slept for a long time. Han Ruzi forced herself to sit up, not hungry at all. She shook her head and didn't want to eat. She stared at King Donghai and Cui Teng for a while, then looked around and there was no Meng E appear.

"Your Majesty." Cui Teng suddenly knelt down with a crying voice in his voice, "Brother-in-law, don't have anything to do, my sister is waiting for you in the capital."

Han Ruzi smiled and felt that the queen was so far away, as if she was someone she knew in her previous life, "Didn't you say that? It'll be fine in a few days."

"Your Majesty doesn't look like..."

Zhang Youcai couldn't help but say, "You'd better go out and let His Majesty rest for a while."

Cui Teng had no choice but to get up, and turned around three times. The King of Donghai said, "Your Majesty is at ease to recuperate. I just left the palace and asked. All the generals said that after the Xiongnu's siege equipment was destroyed, the camp retreated for more than ten miles. It seems that they will not attack the city within a few days. They want to use Jincheng to attract the Chu army to rescue."

Han Ruzi nodded. Jincheng was worry-free for the time being, and as for reinforcements from all over the country, he could no longer consider it.

King Donghai and Cui Teng also lived in the palace. After leaving the yard, Cui Teng stopped and turned around and said seriously to King Donghai: "We have to do something."

"You can cure your illness?"

"No." Cui Teng grabbed the arm of the East Sea, "But Your Majesty's illness is a bit strange. I don't trust those eunuchs. You are smarter and find a way to find out what kind of illness Your Majesty has and how he got it."

The King of East China Sea broke free from Cui Teng's palm and sneered: "Even you can see something strange..."

"I'm not as smart as you, but I'm not blind."

King Donghai was still just sneering. Cui Teng looked around and saw several guards patrolling back and forth in the distance. He lowered his voice and said, "Don't think about it all. If your Majesty has something, it's not your turn to be the emperor."

The King of Donghai snorted, "Do you think I don't understand this principle? Without His Majesty, Jincheng is just an ordinary small city. The Huns will be cruel and can break through it in one day. We either die or surrender. When the imperial court heard the news, they would immediately select a new emperor from the royal family members in the capital. Of course, it was not my turn."

"Then why don't you think of a solution?" Cui Teng said anxiously.

"Don't worry, I'm thinking about it, go and find out what disease your Majesty is suffering from."

"You won't go with me?"

"Hey, with me present, the Imperial Doctor dared not reveal any words, you are His Majesty's brother-in-law... Go and go back quickly."

"Where are you?" Cui Teng was not relieved to leave Donghai alone, for fear that he would do something bad in secret.

"Don't worry about me, meet in my room in an hour."

The two separated outside the gate of the royal palace. Cui Teng went to find the imperial physician to inquire about the situation. King Donghai turned around and came to Yiwei Camp.

The camp was empty, and most of the children of Yi Guards and powerful men were sent to defend the city, leaving only a few guards to take care of a group of special "soldiers".

Han Ruzi would rather keep the untrustworthy ones by his side, so not only did the Donghai King, but also the men from the Tan family in the accompanying team, were all organized in the Yiwei camp, and sometimes they acted as flag bearers to follow the emperor, but most of the time they were under house arrest. The only preferential treatment was to prevent them from going to the battlefield.

When King Donghai comes to meet Tan Ye and Tan Diao brothers, he must figure out one thing.

The so-called military camp is actually an affiliated courtyard of the royal palace. It is not strictly supervised. As long as you don’t leave the gate, the Tan family can move freely.

King Donghai hasn't come to visit his "relatives" for a long time. The Tan brothers were surprised when they saw him, and their attitude was neither lukewarm nor hot.

King Donghai didn't go around in circles and said, "The situation is hopeless. I know very well that I can't be an emperor. Even if something happens to the priest today, all forces will not choose me again. So I have given up. It seems that you have given up too."

The Tan brothers did not say anything, so of course they gave up and just thought about how to protect the Tan family from being exterminated.

"The ugly king of Luoyang has helped the Tan family a lot. Your Majesty will not touch you for the time being, but I want your Majesty to forgive you sincerely, so the ugly king cannot count on you."

The Tan brothers still didn't say anything, but their expressions changed slightly and their eyes no longer evasive.

"I will try my best to stay with the emperor. At least I have succeeded until now. Maybe I don't have the ability to save anyone, but it's still easy to harm anyone."

Neptune from saying bad things about the Tan family, just say good things, so Emperor Neng will keep his guard against the Tan family. The Tan brothers looked at each other and smiled at the same time. Tan Ye said: "What is this what my brother-in-law said? We are still a family."

"Okay, the family will not speak two families. I will only ask one question, and only ask one: Have you done anything in secret?"

"No." The Tan brothers spoke in unison, showing a clear look of surprise. Tan Ye said: "Tonghai King, you have to help us. Since we left the capital, our whole family has been honest."

"It is also an honest act to secretly ask the ugly king for help?"

Tan Ye said awkwardly: "That's not to save your life. Really, we have never done anything else except looking for help from the ugly king, at most..."

"At most, what? Any words you hide from me today may cause a huge disaster in the future."

"At most, arrange business in various places, and you know that if you don't have money, the Tan family will be completely finished."

King Donghai believed this, thought for a while, and asked again: "Is there anyone in His Majesty's accompanying team who needs to be vigilant?"

"you mean……"

"A man from the Jianghu."

The Tan brothers looked at each other again, and Tan Diao said: "The Tan family has lost their status in the martial arts world when they ask for help from the ugly king. Even if there are people from the martial arts world who sneak in, they will not look for us. You can only ask one person for such a thing."

Donghai Neptune knew who to look for, and this person was also in Yiwei Camp.

Hua Bin's marquis was deprived of a few years ago and was not included in the mercy. Therefore, he is now just an ordinary guard soldier, with food and accommodation that is no different from others, and he cannot go out to camp at will, but his status in the world is getting higher and higher.

Seeing Hua Bian wearing simple armor, Donghai King felt much more comfortable and felt that he was not the most miserable person.

"A man from Jianghu?" Hua Bin looked up for a while, looking like an elder who saw through the world. After a while, he shook his head, "I have never seen it, nor have I heard of it. The emperor is quite prejudiced against Jianghu. Who dares to recruit?"

"The Hua family has declined. It is the consequence of your own hands. You don't regret it. It doesn't matter, but you have a son. King Huahu is still in Yunmengze, right? Are you planning to make him a robber for the rest of your life? Think about it, if you have the opportunity to make meritorious service, you must seize it."

Hua Bin thought for a while and finally said, "There is no man from Jianghu that I know in Jincheng. This is the truth. It is more suspicious to say that the two piano players who were involved in Jianghu, the Marquis of Luoyang gave to His Majesty."

"Well, I've also seen it. His Majesty seems to be fascinated by their piano sounds, a bit like... They are not related to the qi-seeker, are they?"

"Hey, the person who looks at the air said that he has a dragon in his hand, but it is actually at most a worm, and it is just a loud blow. I suspect that the Zhang family and daughter are the aphrodisiacs of qin masters. They are a secret school in the world and are engaged in serving noble people. The Marquis of Luoyang probably wants to use this method to please the emperor."

King Donghai was surprised, "But His Majesty said that he wanted to ascend when he listened to the piano..."

"Haha, King Donghai, you are the same age as His Majesty and have a wife. You should understand... this kind of thing?"

Donghai Neptune didn't want to continue discussing it, and asked again: "Is the aphrodisiac sound harmful to the body?"

"I don't like this kind of thing, I just heard a little legend, I don't know the details." Hua Bin approached Donghai King and whispered: "Your Majesty..."

King Donghai said goodbye with a smile, returned to the palace and waited for Cui Teng. He sat in his room for a while, and suddenly remembered that there was another important person who had not been seen. Perhaps the emperor's illness should be in this person. (To be continued.)8
