The afterglow shone on the carved beams and painted buildings, dust danced gently in the light, and Shi Anxia's thin figure was stretched very long by the setting sun.

There were only her and Cen Yuan in the side hall.

In the past, he always stayed with her.

Today is the first time that it is her turn to guard him.

It turns out that being with an unconscious person is such an anxious feeling. I don't know what to do, and I don't know how long he will be unconscious.

At this moment, Shi Anxia vaguely guessed that perhaps Cen Yuan had suffered some torture in his previous life and brought that shadow into this life.

It was as if she had been bewitched by a curse. Once she tried to break free from the restraints, it would become extremely painful.

Could it be that Cen Yuan was also bewitched by the Zhuyou technique?

As soon as this thought came to her mind, she ran outside the hall to ask Shen Siyuan.

Shen Siyuan looked at her with curiosity, "Do you think that the incantation was caused by a cold or a scrape from a fall? Anyone can be affected by the incantation."

"But the prince consort is not just anyone!"

It sounds like the art of incantation requires some status!

Shen Siyuan was not happy: "Practicing the art of incantation requires countless manpower, financial resources, and material resources. It also requires the right time, place, and people, and even requires a life and death Gu worm."

The cultivation of Gu worms is even more difficult. They need to be raised in a place with extremely high yin and yang, and fed with hundred-year-old spiritual herbs. It takes 9981 days for them to take shape. Moreover, each life and death Gu worm can only be used once in a lifetime, and it dies after it is used up. You can imagine how precious it is.

Not to mention how much effort and wisdom is needed to find and cultivate such a poisonous insect.

In addition, the Zhuyou technique itself involves complicated rituals and spells. If there is any mistake, all the previous efforts will be wasted, and it may even cause unpredictable disasters.

What I fear most is that outsiders will argue with insiders, thinking that they can really be blessed by simply saying "I have been blessed by the Zhuyou technique".

After Shen Siyuan had said a lot of things, he said confidently, "The prince consort was not hit by a spell, he is not sick, he is not poisoned, nothing."

"Then why did he faint? Tell me!" The unreasonable look of the little girl seemed a little cuter in the twilight.

"I want to know why too!" Shen Siyuan was in a hurry to leave the palace, feeling unhappy. "It's useless for me to stay here, so I'll leave. Send someone to call me when he wakes up."

Having said that, he slipped away.

After running a few steps, he turned back to comfort her, "Don't worry, don't worry. Whether he wakes up or not, he will be safe. With the prince consort's physique, he will probably wake up in less than an hour."

"You can't even wait for an hour! Shen Siyuan, you are destroying the bridge after crossing it!" The little girl was so angry that her eyes were filled with tears.

Shen Siyuan replied in a hoarse voice, "You are worried about your husband, but I am also worried about our Xiu Xiu! She just came to the capital alone, and before she even saw me twice, you dragged me to the palace."

Shi Anxia had long known that this guy would forget his principles for the sake of beauty, but she didn't expect him to show it so obviously. He would not even give him a chance to save his dignity.

She turned around and went back to the side hall to continue guarding Cen Yuan.

Doctor Shen said that he would wake up in an hour, and she took it seriously.

Shi Anxia is not a talkative person, and it would be very difficult to keep talking. He couldn't think of anything to say for a moment, so he talked about the scene of Miss Jinxiu's entry into the capital today, "You don't know, Shen Yuanshi was like a child, crying as soon as he saw Miss Jinxiu. That scene..."

I don't know how long she kept talking, and then she continued, "Wake up soon. I bought you dozens of new clothes today, all of the latest styles. Oh, and one of them is purple, which is very beautiful. I thought that you would look good in it with your fair skin. Can you get up and put it on for me to see?"

In fact, less than an hour later, Cen Yuan slowly opened her eyes, pulled the corners of her lips weakly, and asked hoarsely, "How come I never knew that you were such a nagging girl?"

Shi Anxia's eyes lit up, "Husband, are you awake? Why do you complain about me being nagging as soon as you wake up?"

Cen Yuan smiled and raised her hand to touch her head, "Did I scare you?"

Shi Anxia shook her head, thought about it, and nodded, "Yeah, I was scared. I thought that when I was unconscious, you must have felt the same as I did."

Cen Yuan propped himself up and looked at his hands with a nervous look, but didn't seem to notice anything unusual.

This was almost a subconscious action of his, because the first thing he did every time he woke up was to check how much of his flesh had been eaten away by the poison.

The poison he was poisoned with in his previous life was "Bai Qi Lie Gu San". He didn't know where these strange poisons came from in the ancient times.

The so-called "a hundred kinds of qi breaking bones", as the name suggests, means that this poison can cause disorder of hundreds of qi in the human body, which in turn causes bones to break inch by inch, causing unbearable pain.

When the poison takes effect, at first you will feel as if there are thousands of streams of air surging in your body, intertwining and entangled, making you feel upset and unable to control yourself.

As the medicinal properties penetrated into the bone marrow, the air currents seemed to turn into countless sharp knives, moving and cutting between the bones, bringing waves of heart-wrenching pain.

The poisoned people often gradually lose consciousness in this endless torture, and eventually end up with broken bones and severed tendons and veins.

What’s even more frightening is that the toxicity of “Bai Qi Lie Gu San” is extremely hidden. People who are poisoned at first often find it difficult to detect and only feel a slight discomfort in their body.

By the time the poison takes effect, it is too late to save the patient. Therefore, this "Bai Qi Lie Gu San" is regarded as one of the most vicious and cruel poisons, and it is feared by everyone.

When she thought of the scene after being poisoned, Cen Yuan's heart beat faster involuntarily.

This time it was okay. It seemed that he was frightened by his past experience.

Hearing that Cen Yuan had woken up, Tang Chujun ran all the way over from the main hall. Before he arrived, his voice had already arrived, "Yuan'er, Yuan'er, are you awake?"

Cen Yuan smiled weakly, "I'm sorry to have made mother worried."

"What are you talking about? Isn't it normal for me to worry about you? I treat you as my son. Are you feeling better? Is it still painful?" Tang Chujun's eyes were red, and it was obvious that he had just cried.

Cen Yuan had never received motherly love, so she felt warm inside. For the first time, she felt cherished. Instead, she felt a little embarrassed. "No, it doesn't hurt, don't worry, mother."

"Oh, how can I not be worried? My heart is about to jump out of my chest."

Emperor Mingde followed behind Tang Chujun, not daring to breathe, for fear that everyone would direct their fire at him.

Just, I feel very guilty.

He ordered Eunuch Qi to call the imperial physician into the palace to take his pulse.

The imperial physician who was waiting outside the palace came in and felt Cen Yuan's pulse again, nodded, and said the same thing as Shen Siyuan, "The prince consort is not poisoned, nor is he sick."

"But why did he faint? It seemed like he was in pain." When Tang Chujun thought of Cen Yuan gritting his teeth to endure the pain, he felt the pain in himself.

The imperial physician could not answer, so Cen Yuan answered it herself, "I have post-traumatic stress disorder, and the imperial physician can't do anything about it."

The doctor didn't understand, "What obstacle?"
