Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

Chapter 212 Qin Shi Huang vomits blood and the court is in chaos!

This scene directly shocked the mysterious man, Yi Xiaochuan, and even Lu Sheng below was a little shocked. The only one who was very clear about this was Gao Yao.

Gao Yao's plan for this game was not to plot against Yi Xiaochuan or the mysterious man, but to focus on Qin Shi Huang. Otherwise, why would Gao Yao choose such a key figure as Lu Sheng?

From the beginning, Gao Yao was calculating Qin Shi Huang's mentality. How was his body? Could Qin Shi Huang really not know? His body had already developed a strong dependence on the elixir, and it was impossible for him not to take it. It was just that no one dared to tell the truth to Qin Shi Huang.

The appearance of Lu Sheng and the drug trial made Qin Shi Huang unable to bear it. No one wanted to prolong his life more than Qin Shi Huang.

From the appearance of Lu Sheng, to the explanation of the effect of the elixir, to the results of the drug test, all of this was within Gao Yao's calculations. If what was really taken out was an elixir of immortality, even if it was taken out, there would have to be a long interval between the drug test and Qin Shihuang's taking it.

Yi Xiaochuan pretended to be Zhao Gao, the Minister of the Imperial Chariots, and with the help of a mysterious Beiyan Mountain Man, it was almost impossible to cause any trouble to Qin Shi Huang under such circumstances.

Gao Yao simply did the opposite, using Li Si's words to explain the matter, and gave Lu Sheng a chance to meet Qin Shi Huang in the court. This was the first step.

The second step was to test the medicine. Whether Lu Sheng took the initiative to test the medicine himself or Qin Shihuang asked someone else to test the medicine, the result actually made no difference to Gao Yao. The main purpose was to let Qin Shihuang witness the effect of the medicine with his own eyes.

With the above two steps, no matter what Yi Xiaochuan or Bei Yanshan wants to do, they have to do it at the court meeting, and they can no longer make any small moves, which is equivalent to avoiding the interference of the two in disguise.

This last step was when Qin Shi Huang was willing to take the medicine. Gao Yao also told Lu Sheng that when facing Qin Shi Huang's questions, he must tell the truth, not exaggerate, and be cautious. The more realistically he described the efficacy of the medicine, the easier it would be for Qin Shi Huang to believe it.

And the fact was just as Gao Yao had speculated. Qin Shihuang, whose body had long been hollowed out by the elixir, hesitated for a moment and then swallowed the pill without hesitation.

As the pill entered his stomach, a feeling of heat quickly spread throughout his body. Qin Shihuang's face showed joy, and he seemed to be radiant with new vitality and energy, as if he had really returned to ten years ago. His complexion became better and better at a speed visible to the naked eye, and became more and more rosy.

Qin Shi Huang was so excited that he could hardly contain himself and laughed, "Hahahaha... That's great! I should reward him handsomely... Haha..."

However, just as he was excited, a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out, staining his clothes red. Qin Shihuang's face instantly turned pale as paper, and his eyes revealed endless fear and despair. Large mouthfuls of blood kept spitting out of his mouth, and his body collapsed to the ground powerlessly.

This sudden change was like a thunderclap in the court, and everyone was stunned, including Lu Sheng. Although he was an alchemist, he was not a doctor. He was puzzled as to why the same medicine had no effect on others but had such a serious reaction on Qin Shi Huang.

At the same time, the mysterious man pretending to be Meng Yi felt depressed and secretly sighed that his guess was correct. The other party's real purpose was to use tonics to make Qin Shihuang slowly destroy his body. Poison? Where did the poison come from? Because it was originally non-toxic, so no matter how to test it, it would be futile.

"Protect the emperor! Protect the emperor! Quickly capture Lu Sheng..." Yi Xiaochuan was terrified and shouted hurriedly. However, before he could finish shouting, Wang Ben had already rushed to Qin Shihuang like a gust of wind.

At the same time, the guards on both sides of the hall surged up like a tide, quickly blocking the hall door and the surrounding passages. At this moment, Wang Ben took a few steps in front of Lu Sheng and pressed the saber in his hand tightly against Lu Sheng's neck.

When there was no danger, Wang Ben rarely spoke. But once danger occurred, Wang Ben, the commander of the imperial guards, was no joke. He immediately took control of the situation and did not allow anyone to leave.

"How dare you poison His Majesty? Quick, hand over the antidote."

"I didn't, this is really a tonic medicine, he is fine, how could I harm His Majesty?"

Seeing Qin Shi Huang fall to the ground, Lu Sheng understood that this was the critical time to consider whether he would live or die. He still remembered what Gao Yao had said about how to survive.

"Why don't you treat His Majesty quickly?"

"Here..."

Hearing Wang Ben's loud shout, the imperial doctors who had been hiding aside and not daring to speak immediately swarmed to Qin Shi Huang's side and began to treat him. After a little hesitation, Wang Ben immediately ordered people to arrest Lu Sheng and detain him first.

Wang Ben maintained order while observing Qin Shi Huang's condition at all times. However, Qin Shi Huang was breathing in more air than out. Even if the imperial doctors took turns to treat him, they could not save Qin Shi Huang's dying life.

"General Wang Ben, no matter what, the first thing to do is to move His Majesty to the harem. Otherwise, it may cause chaos."

"Um"

At this time, Yi Xiaochuan explained directly to Wang Ben, who finally nodded after hearing this. Even if there was any problem, he must not die suddenly here, otherwise the entire court would inevitably fall into chaos.

Wang Ben closed the Xianyang Palace on the one hand, and temporarily blocked the news on the other hand. The other ministers were temporarily unable to leave the Xianyang Palace directly. Then he summoned all the ministers in the court who were more trusted by Qin Shihuang, and began to implement one measure after another in an orderly manner.

At this time, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Qin Shi Huang's life was in danger, but the Qin Dynasty still had no nominal crown prince. Although Fusu was the eldest son at this time, he had been demoted to the northern border. Others were inevitably suspicious about who should take over the Qin Dynasty.

At the same time, some extraordinary people were also invited to the Xianyang Palace, including Meng Wu, the father of Meng Tian and Meng Yi, Yang Duanhe, Xin Sheng, Qiang Wei, Feng Quji, Feng Jie, Li Xin, and Zhang Han. These people all had certain strength and prestige in the Qin army. In addition, there were Wang Ben, Wang Li and his son, and Meng Yi played by a mysterious person. Almost all the senior generals in the Qin army were here.

Of course, if Gao Yao were here now, he might be able to occupy a seat here. After all, Gao Yao is now a powerful general.
