Poor monks do not break the precepts

The piercing voice was like a ghost screaming in the middle of the cold winter night. When the people in the room heard the words, their hairs stood on end, they couldn't help trembling, and all their eyes focused on Li Ru.

The matter came suddenly, Xu Sheng couldn't take it easy, chewed the meaning of the words for a while, he instinctively resisted his wild thoughts, and asked dully: "What's wrong with your mother?"

Finally when Xu Sheng replied, Li Ru groaned and knelt down, almost knocked his head on Xu Sheng's knee, sadly said: "Your Majesty suddenly passed out this morning, the emperor was frightened, and hurriedly ordered the imperial physician to come and treat him, saying that there is something wrong."

Hearing this, everyone's expression became unbelievable, how can we use such a mourning method to announce the good news of this day.

Xu Sheng's expression was also puzzled, just as he was about to ask a question, he saw Li Ru raised his head again, with tears all over his face, and said: "But your mother fainted not because she was pregnant, but because she was poisoned."

What!Xu Sheng stood up abruptly, the veins on his arm propped on the table were bulging, because he deliberately restrained himself all the year round, even when he was angry, he still looked calm, but his dark eyes like ancient wells made people frightened, and the Calm, like the eve of the rainstorm, so quiet.

Ji Sushan quickly helped Li Ru up, and asked Bai Zhaorong to wring a hot handkerchief to wipe Li Ru's face, and said politely, "Is your mother okay now?"

Li Ru was quite agitated, and his words were a little awkward, "It's okay, it's okay. But the imperial doctor said that this poison is not like ordinary poison. The palace can't cure it. After investigation, the emperor found that Qiulan's little hoof was behind the owner. Killed people directly."

"Where's your mother? Are you awake?"

"Yes, let me come to you as soon as I woke up." Since seeing Qiulan's buttocks and legs that were smashed by the stick, Li Ru came all the way in a daze. Madam wants to see you."

Without further ado, Xu Sheng got up and walked out of the gate, jumped into the carriage that was already waiting outside decisively, Li Ru didn't talk nonsense, climbed into the carriage and let the groom set off immediately.When Huai Mingmo chased out the door quickly, he found that the sound of horseshoes was far away. When he wanted to chase after him with light work, he was stopped by Ji Sushan in time. Ji Sushan stopped him from acting impulsively, and only asked Huai Mingmo to wait for news in Ji's house.

Emperor Meng has always paid attention to his own style, and he likes to pretend to be a wise king in front of the people, so he has long ordered officials and royal family's carriages and horses not to rampage in the streets, and anyone who violates the order will be severely punished.

But today, the carriages in the palace were speeding along Central Avenue, and twice they almost ran into people who were too late to dodge, but Li Ru didn't take it seriously, and still didn't let the groom slow down, Xu Sheng knew it was Emperor Meng when he saw it After agreeing, he couldn't help but sneered in his heart, and felt a little bit emotional, this Emperor Meng really loved Concubine Chong Wan, so he didn't care about it.

Ruxi palace was in chaos, the sound of the wooden staff hitting the minced meat, the sound of tiny drops of blood dripping down the board when picking up the board, and the sound of maids begging for mercy and kowtow, it was like hell on earth. People are deterred by hearing it.

"Caomin greets Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Wei..."

Mrs. Wei hurriedly picked up Xu Sheng, and stared at the Ruxi Palace with a serious expression, "Mr. Xu, be careful when you go in. The emperor got angry and ordered to kill all the maids in the courtyard. Now he is still in the palace with Concubine Wan , when you go to see me, remember to be cautious in your words and deeds, and don't cause murder for no reason."

Xu Sheng was grateful for his obeisance, looked at the court ladies kneeling in a row, and couldn't feel any pity, "Caomin knows."

"En." Mrs. Wei also looked in, because she heard Wan Xin mention her life experience, she couldn't help feeling sorry for those court ladies, and said with emotion: "It's not peaceful inside and outside the palace."

"Outside the palace?" Withdrawing his gaze, Xu Sheng looked at Mrs. Wei with some puzzlement.

Madam Wei is not very familiar with Xu Sheng, but she probably heard a lot about Xu Sheng in the past few days, so she pointedly said: "He Huan Zhai."

Mrs. Wei's words still lingered in her ears, Xu Sheng had already arrived outside Ruxi's palace, waiting quietly for Li Rujin to report to the palace, and then came out to invite his Li Rujin into the palace.There were two young maids busy in the room, these were brought by Mrs. Wei's side Qiuxi, and Qiuxi was serving at Concubine Wan's couch.

The dormitory of Ruxi Palace was originally not very well-regulated, but now a group of imperial doctors trembling on the ground occupied most of the space, making the room even more crowded.When Xu Sheng entered the room, he saw Emperor Meng sitting on the side of the couch, coaxing Wan Xin to sleep, talking softly as if coaxing a child.

In three or two steps, Xu Sheng prostrated himself in front of the imperial physician to pay homage. Emperor Meng only moved his eyes, and said solemnly: "Mr. Xu, get up."

Xu Sheng got up when he heard the words, and asked eagerly: "My lady...how is it?"

"Poisoned." Emperor Meng took the half-dry and half-wet towel, carefully tucked the cold sweat on Concubine Wan's forehead, threw the handkerchief for a while, and knocked the imperial doctor's hat crouching in front, "This group of useless things, All of them are known as the thousand gold masters, but none of them know Wan'er's poison."

"I am incompetent, please forgive my sin." The imperial physicians trembled violently when they heard the words, and cold sweat dripped down their hands like beads.

Emperor Meng was too lazy to look at these imperial physicians, and stared straight at Xu Sheng and said, "I heard from Wan'er that Mr. Xu is good at poison theory? He knows the poison of Hehuanzhai very well."

Xu Sheng nodded affirmatively, slightly bowed his back and respectfully said: "I hope the emperor will let the grass-roots people check the pulse of the empress."

"Sure." Emperor Meng agreed in a deep voice, and slightly moved aside enough for Concubine Wan to stretch out her hand, "Qiuxi, please sit down."

Xu Sheng covered Concubine Wan's wrist with a silk handkerchief, tapped his pulse with two fingers for a long time, stood up and said, "The poison in the empress is the You Huan Cup of He Huan Zhai."

"He Huan Zhai, You Huan Cup." Emperor Meng held Wan Xin's cold hand and snorted coldly: "Li Ru, go and announce Meng Yinghuan, I want to ask him about the good job he has done!"

Suddenly an imperial doctor lying in the back row tremblingly said: "Your Majesty, the poison of your empress is rare in the world, it may not be the poison of Hehuanzhai that Mr. Xu said, it is better to find out."

Xu Sheng stood beside the bed with a sneer, looked at the imperial physician, saw his head was lowered to the ground, unable to see his face at all, so he asked: "Xu Sheng asks for advice, what kind of poison do you think the empress has?"

Before the imperial doctor could answer, a medicine bowl flew towards him, knocking off the official hat on his head, "That dirty thing who betrayed the master himself said that he was a member of Hehuanzhai, and he was ordered to poison him, how dare you say that?" This is not the poison of He Huan Zhai. You have hidden evil intentions, I see that you have taken advantage of it, come here, suppress it and hand it over to Mrs. Wei."

"The emperor, the emperor, the emperor, please forgive me."

When the person was dragged outside the gate of Ruxi Palace, the stern begging for mercy could still be heard in the palace, so no imperial doctor dared to speak carelessly.

Wan Xin's complexion was very ugly, her lips were pale as if she was about to die, Emperor Meng became more and more anxious as he looked at it, and immediately said to Xu Sheng: "Mr. Xu knows the poison in Wan'er? Is there a way to detoxify?"

Xu Sheng hastily bowed and offered the antidote, "Caomin got the antidote more than a month ago, and the empress should be able to detoxify after taking it. The poison in the You Huan Cup is so overbearing that it will make people drowsy all day long, but After the poison is detoxified, there will be symptoms for a long time, and it will get better after a long time, so the emperor doesn't have to worry about it. It's just that the mother must have been injured by the poison, and I'm afraid it will take a long time to recuperate before she can recover."

Emperor Meng waved his hand to invite Qiu Xi, who was quietly waiting on the side, and said: "Take someone to vacate a side hall for Mr. Xu to live in the palace for a long time."

"Your Majesty, you must not do this." Xu Sheng said in a hurry, before Emperor Meng's face changed, he straightened his words: "This is against the rules."

Wanxin said softly and softly: "Your Majesty, there are many rules in the palace, and the concubine knows that my brother is not used to living here. He doesn't mind the trouble, so just let him enter the palace from time to time, so as to avoid gossip and gossip. Isn't it all the fault of the concubine that he is favored and arrogant?"

Hearing what Wan Xin said, Emperor Meng didn't insist much, and asked the eunuch beside him to fetch a sign for Xu Sheng, allowing him to enter and leave the palace at will.Emperor Meng took the antidote with Wanxin, and talked to her for a long time, until Wanxin was so tired that he fell asleep and learned that Meng Yinghuan had already knelt outside the imperial study, and then left Ruxi Palace.

The ground outside the Ruxi palace was covered with blood, all the maids in the palace had been killed with sticks, and the corpses were piled up in a corner by the door waiting for someone to dispose of them, it was really shocking.The maids who were temporarily exchanged were all Mrs. Wei's trustworthy people. When they first arrived, they covered their mouths when they saw the garden. However, they were all old people in the palace, and they quickly adapted. They listened to Aunt Qiuxi's arrangement and cleaned the courtyard. bloody.

The imperial doctor got Wanxin's permission to leave, and the room suddenly became quiet, silent, as if time stopped suddenly.

Wan Xin curled her pale lips, stretched out her hand to lightly pull Xu Sheng's sleeve, and comforted: "I'm fine."

Xu Sheng looked at Wan Xin expressionlessly, his voice choked up for a long time, "Do you know what kind of poison you have?"

Wan Xin smiled lightly and nodded, not caring about life and death at all, she smiled like a child, her eyes were as clear as ever, and there was no trace of resentment.

"There's no antidote to drunkenness, aren't you afraid?" Xu Sheng's fingers were colder than Wan Xin's, and they held each other tightly as if warming each other.

"I'm a person with a poor fate. God has mercy on me. It's enough not to let me die inexplicably." Wan Xin sat up and leaned against the soft pillow, reaching out weakly and tremblingly to touch the corners of Xu Sheng's eyes, "I don't want to die." I stayed in the palace until the day when my hair was full of hair, but now my wish has just come true, so don't be sad."

Xu Sheng rubbed his cheek against Wan Xin's palm twice, and heard Wan Xin say: "Don't tell him, don't tell him the truth after you catch Lian Xin Huiji, he can't bear it. Just keep him in the dark for the rest of his life." Come on, be a worry-free little duke."

He clenched his fists tightly, his imaginary short nails were embedded in the flesh of his palm, and warm blood flowed out along his fingers, he sighed: "He will always know the truth."

"No, except that you are Ji's family, you go to Tong Ji's family and say, Mr. Huai will definitely agree to brother."

The materials used for Drunken Life, Dreams and Death are similar to those used for Sadness and Joy, so the antidote for Sadness and Joy is more or less effective, and Wan Xin's complexion slightly improved.Xu Sheng knows well that there is no way to cure the symptoms but not the root cause of this matter. The antidote can only slow down the onset of toxicity at most. He looked at Wan Xin and couldn't bear to refuse, so he nodded and agreed. Wan Xin chuckled when he saw it, this time it was true Tired, she leaned on the soft pillow and gradually fell asleep.

Xu Sheng finished prescribing the prescription and handed it to Qiu Xi. When he walked out of Ruxi Palace, the moon was bright and the stars were thin, Mrs. Wei had already gone back to her own palace. Callers are not allowed to come in and out at will, and those who make intrusions will be killed without mercy.

Of course, no one in this palace dared to be presumptuous. Emperor Meng's killing spree made the whole harem panic, and who would dare to make trouble at this time.
