Chapter 29 Volume 28
After An Rong told the truth, after knowing the whole story, the fire in Yingcheng's heart became more and more intense.Without saying a word, he got up and walked towards the garden.
Seeing that he was really unhappy, Ning Xiang followed him silently, and could not help lamenting: Zhengjun, Zhengjun, this time you have brushed off the lord's scales.
There is a certain distance from the courtyard to the back garden, and Ying Cheng walked very quickly.An Rong's words echoed in his ears from time to time, Zhao Tingyun actually had the guts, but he was too careless, always thinking that the other party was just a grumpy brat who loves to lose his temper, never thought that he now knows how to give laxatives to people!
Zhao Tingyun, look if I don't punish you well this time!
However, when Yingcheng arrived, he was so shocked by the scene before him that he couldn't say anything. His footsteps even stopped for a moment, and then, he almost ran in front of the person who was in great pain at the moment. He saw Looking at the blood on the other party's lips and clothes, his voice was trembling, "This is... what's going on? Chang Xi... don't scare me..."
Ji Changxi's eyes were tightly closed, unable to respond, only the tightly furrowed brows told him that he was very uncomfortable now.
Holding him from Mutang's hand into his arms, Yingcheng looked at Zhao Tingyun who was already scared to death, and shouted angrily, "What the hell is going on!?"
Before Wushuang and the others could speak, he interrupted hastily, "The imperial physician! Are you going to call the imperial physician?"
"My lord, don't be like this!" Wu Shuang saw that he was in a state of confusion, so he held Ying Cheng's arm, and there was a bit of pleading and fear in his eyes, "The imperial doctor will be here soon, my lord, don't be like this..."
Reluctantly calming himself down, Yingcheng made a decisive decision, picked him up, and walked to the guest room not far away, "Get someone to remind you! Hurry up!"
The people present never knew that Prince Rui, who was always elegant and gentle, would be so irritable. Everyone dared not show their anger, they were very afraid.No matter how gentle his master is on weekdays, when he gets angry, the intimidating atmosphere is too terrifying.
Just like the dangerous whirlpool under the calm sea, there is only one person who can resolve this disaster, and that is Prince Rui's favorite side lord, he is his tranquilizer.
When the hurried away figure got farther and farther away, An Rong still couldn't restrain his trembling hands, but he didn't forget about Zhao Tingyun, and when he looked around, he found that the man had already slumped on the bench.
An Rong said with difficulty, "Zhengjun..."
As if he had finally come to his senses, Zhao Tingyun's expression was not very good. He muttered a few words to himself, but he didn't know what he was talking about. After a while, he burst into tears. Rong Rong's sleeve, "How could this be! How could this be! It's just an ordinary laxative! An Rong, isn't it!? I didn't mean to harm him! You know, it's an ordinary laxative!" He said in one breath He talked a lot, although he was explaining to An Rong, but it was more like he wanted to tell Ying Cheng.
Seeing him like this, An Rong couldn't bear it, so she comforted, "There must be some misunderstanding, Zhengjun, don't be like this... The side is auspicious, and nothing will happen!"
Repeatedly comforting Zhao Tingyun, An Rong lowered his head and sighed, his thin bangs blocked his eyes, and also concealed the depth in his eyes.
No one noticed the slight change in his face.
In the room, the old doctor with superb medical skills checked the pulse with a dignified expression, his fingers moved slightly, and he didn't say a word.
Yingcheng's worry never faded away, he sat on the edge of the bed with an ugly expression, holding Ji Changxi's other hand, staring at the person on the bed motionless, lest he miss any possibility of him waking up.
Chang Xi closed his eyes, and seemed calmer than before, but his ignorance made people worry whether he would never wake up again.Such cognition and conjecture made Yingcheng nervous and apprehensive, uneasy.
When the old doctor finally finished his diagnosis, Ying Cheng asked anxiously, "How is it? Is there any serious problem?"
"My lord..." The elderly man's tone was a little heavy, "Take a step to speak."
His heart sank suddenly, and Ying Cheng felt that he was thrown from the boiling water into the ice immediately, and couldn't help shivering, and when he got up, his legs were also weak.
Tears welled up in Mu Tang's eyes, and he wanted to ask another question, but Ying Cheng stopped him with a wave of his hand.
After another glance at Chang Xi, Ying Cheng made up his mind and followed the imperial physician out of the room.
A door cut off the sound from inside and outside.
Outside, both of them fell into a temporary silence, because Ying Cheng didn't dare to ask, and the imperial physician didn't dare to speak.
Finally, cautiously but with a hint of expectation, Ying Cheng said, "It should be fine after a few more days of recuperation, right?"
"My lord..." the imperial physician said with a sad face, "It's not that simple, because... the king is poisoned."
"Poisoned!?" Although he knew it wasn't as simple as laxatives, he never expected to get this answer. Ying Cheng was surprised and angry, "Speak clearly!"
"The poison in the side gentleman is Thousand Intestine Grass. This poison is refined from various herbs. Those herbs are not harmful to eat separately, but once reconciled, they will be violently toxic. And this poison..." It seems Hesitating, the imperial physician looked up at Yingcheng, and then continued, "This poison is extremely poisonous and cold, especially for the heart, spleen and lungs. Even if the toxicity is removed...the body of the king...I'm afraid...I'm afraid It will also be damaged, not as good as before. And..."
This was really a dull thunder, and Yingcheng was caught off guard, he swayed, and the old doctor quickly helped him up, and said anxiously, "My lord! Take care of yourself!"
"Continue to talk..." Yingcheng slowly calmed down, the veins on the back of his clenched hands were clearly visible, "And what!"
The imperial doctor was very embarrassed, and stopped talking for a long time, knelt down and said, "Forgive me, my lord, this thousand intestine grass is really powerful, my lord... my lord...if I want to extend my heirs in the future, I'm afraid..."
"You mean... you mean..."
"Take care slowly, there may be a glimmer of hope." The old doctor didn't dare to look at him, "but... it will be much more difficult to conceive than ordinary people."
The coldest month has clearly passed, but snowflakes began to fall little by little in the sky, and then more and more snowflakes fell, and the snowflakes fell bigger and bigger.
Ying Cheng sat slumped on the bluestone steps, he was suddenly sad, his heart seemed to be missing a piece, and the pain was sharp.
I remembered that Zhan Xiao had mentioned not long ago that he and Chang Xi should have a child as soon as possible.But...I had been wandering back and forth before, worried that I would travel back at any time, so I didn't dare to have a child easily, but now...but it is difficult to want.
Is this retribution?
Retribution himself was too greedy, he wanted to go back and reunite with his family, but he was reluctant to let go of Chang Xi, swaying from side to side, causing both sides to suffer.
He was desperate, and more of a self-blame.
The heavy snow melted into the long black hair, leaving behind crystal freezing spots, and the exhaled breath was filled with white.
It wasn't until Ning Xiang opened the door and came to the side that Ying Cheng moved his already stiff body a little. His voice was low and hoarse, with exhaustion that could not be concealed, "How is the side?"
"Go back to the prince, still haven't woken up..."
Ying Cheng was silent for a long time, so long that Ning Xiang wanted to say some comforting words again.Then he spoke, his voice was cold and terrifying, his face was full of gloom, like a harbinger of the coming of a tyrannical hurricane.Ying Cheng said, "Where is Zhao Tingyun, tell him to roll over here! Immediately!"
In the front hall, apart from Wushuang and Ning Xiang, An Rong was also present.
Ying Cheng sat on the armchair in the middle, looking coldly at the person in front of him.
Zhao Tingyun seemed to be very frightened, and her eyes were a little swollen, she must have been crying for a long time.
However, no matter what expression the other party had at the moment, Ying Cheng remained unmoved.He asked without any emotion, "Where did your poison come from, and who told you to do it."
Zhao Tingyun was obviously dumbfounded by the question, "What poison...it's a laxative! I don't know why it became like this..."
"Do you think the imperial doctor is a fool, or do you think I am a fool?" Yingcheng threw the porcelain cup at Zhao Tingyun's feet angrily, "I thought you were just a young man, but I thought you were too kind." I should have recognized it as early as when you whipped Wushuang and refused to repent."
Zhao Tingyun was also taken aback by him, had he ever been treated like this before?Immediately, he was extremely wronged, "I haven't done it, so I haven't done it! You can go and check carefully, don't frame me!"
"Of course I will find out." Ying Cheng sneered, "It's just how to investigate is the business of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. You can explain it to the people in the Ministry of Criminal Justice slowly."
"You! You want to send me to that kind of place?!" Zhao Tingyun couldn't believe it, he actually treated himself as a criminal! "Yingcheng, how dare you!"
"Of course I dare." Ying Cheng walked up to him and even smiled, "Not only do I dare to send you to the Ministry of Punishment, but I also want to give you a big gift."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Zhao Tingyun to play tricks, he turned his head and said to Ning Xiang, "Bring that glass of wine here, so that I can see Mr. Zhao off." People draw the line completely.
Both Wushuang and An Rong were taken aback.
However, when Ning Xiang brought the glass of wine, everyone was not surprised but frightened.
Even Zhao Tingyun understood what was in that glass of wine.
That's right, that's the poisonous wine that Ji Changxi drank!
Zhao Tingyun's face was pale at the moment, even his lips were pale, he said tremblingly, "No...I won't drink..."
Ying Cheng didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so he said directly, "Come here."
After a while, several mighty servants outside the door knelt respectfully in front of Yingcheng.
"Hold this man down for me and let him drink the wine."
A few people said nothing, and they were going to arrest Zhao Tingyun after receiving the order. Zhao Tingyun was really scared, and only thought that he must not drink and wanted to run away.However, his arm was restrained and he couldn't move.
Seeing this, An Rong rushed forward to stop those servants, but was pushed down.
Zhao Tingyun yelled loudly, "You dare! I will let my father kill you all one by one!" He was furious, "Yingcheng! Let me tell you! I only wish that Ji Changxi was not poisoned to death, he deserves it!"
Ying Cheng didn't speak, but his face was as cold as frost.
On the other side, persistently, An Rong grabbed the leg of one of the servants, while Zhao Tingyun took advantage of the distraction of the servant and swung the cup in his hand to the ground.
There was a crisp cracking sound, and the liquid in the cup gushed out unstoppably.
When the scene was chaotic, Ying Cheng said, "Enough!"
In an instant, several servants withdrew their hands in time and stood aside.
Zhao Tingyun was still panting, but smiled arrogantly, "Why didn't you continue, weren't you very proud just now!"
"You are really... hopeless." Yingcheng said, "Since you don't want to drink, then you can change to something else."
After signaling with their eyes, the two servants nodded, then walked to Zhao Tingyun's side, one on each side, clasped his arms and held him back.
Zhao Tingyun screamed in pain, opened his mouth to curse again.
An Rong's protector was eager and wanted to help.Ying Cheng frowned, "Be quiet, otherwise I won't have to let someone knock you out."
"My lord! Please! You punish me!" An Rong burst into tears.
"What's the use of me punishing you." Ying Cheng knelt down, looked into An Rong's eyes, and said almost coldly, "You really let me down by talking about you."
After finishing speaking, he shot like lightning, grabbed An Rong's shoulder, and raised his hand to strike the back of his neck.I saw that the person who was still crying and begging himself had collapsed limply at this moment.
"It's finally quiet," Ying Cheng stood up, smiling half a smile at Zhao Tingyun, "This time, let's settle the score slowly."
