Rebirth of the Second Young Master of the Ren Family

A corner of the small side hall was occupied by several old figures.The gray hair glowed with a little silver in the morning light, without the benevolence and serenity of the old man, but because of their non-stop walking pace, they seemed strangely anxious.

"How could this be so? It doesn't make sense!" An old doctor who had passed sixty years of age frowned tightly, huddled together with the wrinkles on his face, and every crevice spoke of his anxiety and uneasiness.

"Obviously the people in the other palaces are all well. Why on earth is this doctor not able to do it?" A slightly younger imperial physician interjected, with more doubts than anxiety in his brows.

Last night, after several people were urgently summoned into the palace, after researching with the doctors from the Sacred Valley of Medicine, they confirmed that it was indeed a kind of poison.Then His Majesty sent people to search Qianruo Palace, and sure enough, they found poison and antidote.The antidote was delivered to them in the early hours of the morning, and they immediately fed the antidote to several concubines who were poisoned. After an hour, the rashes on their bodies disappeared, and they knew the poison was cured at a glance.

But when it came to Ren Ren, something went wrong.

After taking the same antidote, the rash on his body not only did not disappear, but became brighter red, with a moist feeling like fresh blood, as if it was about to bleed.An hour later, the rash all over his body spread more and more rapidly, and soon spread to his waist, accompanied by an extremely unbearable itching sensation.

——The poison had already mutated, which made several imperial physicians helpless.

"Hey, it would be great if Chief Qin was here..." the youngest imperial physician murmured.

"Shut up! What nonsense!" The old master who led him immediately raised his eyebrows and shouted coldly. He carefully scanned the surroundings with his peripheral vision. He was relieved when he saw that no one noticed what he said, and cursed in a low voice: "Qin Yuan The head has already left, don't mention it again!"

In fact, who doesn't know that the head of the Imperial Hospital——Imperial Physician Qin is the most trusted by His Majesty, and indeed the doctor with the best medical skills?But for some unknown reason, Imperial Physician Qin suddenly resigned without warning a few months ago, and what is strange is His Majesty's attitude.As if this was such a trivial matter, they neither pursued nor investigated, but just re-appointed the head of the hospital.

After so many years in the palace, even though they are imperial physicians, they are all smart people. They immediately understood that this Qin imperial physician might have some secret with His Majesty that cannot be revealed to the public, so they all pretended to be deaf and dumb, as if they didn't know.But when I encountered such a problem today, I couldn't help but want to rely on the most outstanding medical doctor Qin Taiyi, not to mention His Majesty's wrath...someone must take care of it!

The scolded young imperial doctor shrank his neck and changed the topic: "This doctor is a descendant of the Sacred Valley of Medicine, can't he develop an antidote for himself?" As imperial physicians, their medical skills are naturally good.But Ren Ren's situation is really strange, I don't know how the poison is formed, and the detoxification will not be solved in a short time.But now it seems that with the spreading speed of this poison, I am afraid that people will not be able to survive before they develop an antidote.

"Where does he have the energy to think..." The old doctor wanted to shake his head and sigh.Judging from the symptoms of Ren Ren's onset, the erythema seems to be caused by other toxins besides heat and poison. Although I don't know what kind of poison it is, the effect is obvious: the itching of the original rash has been aggravated, and the color of the rash has increased. Look, it is absolutely unbearable torture for ordinary people.

That young man, I'm afraid that all his willpower is used to resist that terrible pain, so how can he devote himself to researching the properties of medicine and developing antidote?If it goes on like this, it won't be long before I'm afraid that even my sanity will be difficult to maintain. How can I save myself?

"Then, let him do that..." the young imperial physician said with some embarrassment.

"This is what he proposed, and it is indeed the best way. People's control is limited, and when it reaches the limit, they will be unable to restrain themselves." The old doctor looked at the closed door, although he couldn't see the people inside. , but involuntarily revealed a little appreciation in his tone.He is a tough child, able to endure such torture, and clearly proposed a plan.

The rash on Ren Ren's body is painful and itchy, but he must not scratch or rub it. Once the thin skin of the rash is scratched to expose the blood inside, it will be easily infected and will only make the situation worse.

Ren Ren, who knew this well, was standing in the empty room at this moment, opening his eyes wide and trying to think of something to distract his attention, to ignore the unbearable pain and itching coming from all over his body.It felt like a group of young insects were biting his skin, some light and some heavy, mixed together with pain or itching, making people want to scratch there and tear the tormenting skin Gouged out together with the meat.

Lowering his head, he saw that his naked waist was also starting to have a rash. He subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch it, but just as his wrist was about to move, he was caught, and his bound hands could only move slightly.Only then did Ren Ren, who remembered his own situation, couldn't help laughing bitterly, he really didn't expect things to turn out like this.

I thought he was just poisoned, and he would be fine if he took the antidote.How could he have expected that the antidote here would not work?It was too late to study the antidote, and the spreading speed of the poison was astonishing. It had already spread to the waist in less than two hours, accompanied by more and more obvious pain and itching.Although rationality told him that he should never scratch, but the feeling of being too tormented made him stick out his hand unconsciously again and again, and he only came back to his senses the moment it touched the skin.

So, Ren Ren had someone tie him up.

Because he was afraid that the friction of the clothes would scratch the rash on his body, he was naked from the upper body, and only wore loose underwear on the lower body. His hands were tied to the wall, and his feet were also tied separately, like a prisoner about to be executed.The only difference is that the raised rashes on his body are so terrifying on his fair skin.

Ren Ren suddenly remembered that time of injury, that time he was really tortured with a stick, and the scars were itchy and uncomfortable when he was recuperating afterwards, but Lin Zesheng was there at that time.Suddenly, I miss the hug with the smell of herbs like crazy. Being beside that person, being firmly embraced by that person, it seems that I can insulate from all pain, because that person will protect him in his arms and protect him. Well, I can't bear to see him get hurt a little bit.

And now...

What I suffer now is a hundred times and a thousand times what I suffered at that time, but I can only be trapped here and struggle alone.

Gritting his teeth tightly, he didn't let his uncontrollable voice escape from his mouth.Ren Ren really wanted to pass out, but he couldn't.The toxicity is too overbearing, he can only maintain the status quo by constantly using his internal force to force the toxin out of the body, if he really faints, the poison will probably spread a little faster.

A trace of self-mockery appeared on the distorted face tortured by the pain: He really asked for it.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open vigorously.The force was so great that the door leaf was directly hit against the wall and bounced back, but was firmly grasped by someone who came, and the wooden door creaked in protest and calmed down.

Looking up, it was the expected person.Ren Ren panted lightly: "Your Majesty, why are you here?" It's just that the tone of the voice was a little strange because of the physical discomfort.

"How could this be..." Xiao Tianhong looked at the person in front of him in shock.

The boy's thin body looked elongated because his hands and feet were bound.Thick ropes wound round and round around his wrists and ankles, giving him a destructive aesthetic.But Xiao Tianhong didn't have the heart to pay attention to these, because the red spots on Ren Ren's body had densely covered his sight.Even if he doesn't know medicine, he already understands the seriousness of the situation.

"How long can you last?" Xiao Tianhong quickly restrained his expression and asked calmly.

Ren Ren moved his body and asked back: "How many days will the imperial doctors need?"

Xiao Tianhong was silent.After he went down to court, he received a report from his personal guards and rushed over immediately.Hearing the imperial physicians tell him that the antidote was ineffective, although he was worried, he never expected it to be so serious.The imperial doctors need a few days, and the newly appointed head of the hospital told him, at least seven days.

His eyes turned to Ren Ren's still clean face, and there was some fluctuation in his usually calm and self-sufficient gaze.He knew how tolerant Ren Ren was. No matter how much torture and pain Ren Ren experienced in his previous life, he never complained or groaned.But now...he clearly saw Ren Ren clenched his teeth, his slightly trembling chin, and the sweat dripping from the corner of his forehead.What kind of torture will this be...

It was already so serious in just two hours... Ren Ren could not afford to wait for seven days.

It seemed that Xiao Tianhong's silence had been expected long ago. Ren Ren looked straight at him, his eyes as calm as water: "Since the imperial doctors are helpless, then forget it. I hope His Majesty will give you poisonous wine or a three-foot white silk to let Ren Ren go. No pain."

His eyes were so calm, the black pupils seemed to penetrate through the layers of city walls, looking into another void.Different from the coldness of malicious sarcasm when we met in Zezhou, and different from the indifferent and resisting ignorance in the palace, the current Ren Ren...is a look that sees through, looks down, and has no nostalgia.Everything in this world, the Ren family, Huaguo, and the Sacred Valley of Medicine seemed to be able to be picked up by him so lightly, and then thrown away casually.

Xiao Tianhong suddenly felt a trace of panic, why was there no resentment, no nostalgia, and no resentment in his eyes?Ren Ren really doesn't care about anything?Does it matter if you die like this?So what about me?

The palms hidden in the wide court clothes were tightly clenched, Xiao Tianhong breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice: "Ren Ren, hold on, I will ask for help from the Sacred Valley of Medicine for you." After finishing speaking, he turned and left without looking back Take another look at him.

Therefore, he did not see Ren Ren's suddenly relaxed brow.

When Xiao Tianhong arrived outside, he gave the imperial physicians a death order, they must delay Ren Ren's illness, any medicinal material can be used, he only needs to save Ren Ren's life.

Although several imperial physicians knelt down to accept orders, none of them would say a word of guarantee.

Looking at the few people who bowed their heads and said nothing, Xiao Tianhong suddenly missed the old man with the gray beard who was respectful to him but never afraid.Knowing that he was a medical sage, and knowing that the Qin imperial physician in this life had not been unfaithful to him, he still drove him away.

He sighed heavily in his heart, regretting even more inexplicably.If he had known... had known earlier, he would have definitely kept the Medical Saint by his side.It's just that it's too late now.

Just when he was silent, the head of the new hospital suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the officials have also studied the situation of Ren Ershao, and they all agree that there is some kind of medicine residue in his body, or he has eaten something. , happens to be incompatible with the antidote, so it will mutate into another poison."

Xiao Tianhong frowned and understood what the imperial physician meant.

She waved her hand to the people behind her, and said: "Bring Concubine Chun here." These days, Ren Ren's eating and drinking have been arranged by her alone, and no one knows Ren Ren's situation better than her.

Soon, Pingting was brought over.

Lifting the hem of the skirt slightly with both hands and crossing the threshold, seeing several imperial physicians in the room, she was a little surprised, and said dignifiedly: "I have seen Your Majesty." Nodding with a smile is the answer.

Xiao Tianhong didn't talk nonsense, and asked the imperial physician to tell Pingting about Ren Ren's situation.

Pingting stood upright, listening to the imperial doctor's words quietly, the expression on her face changed several times.Surprised, shocked, heartbroken, sad... until finally he returned to a calm face, almost indifferent.Only the deformed handkerchief in her hand and the reddish eye circles revealed her mood.

After the imperial physician finished speaking, Pingting thought for a while, and said, "These days, Er Shao Ren has been eating neutral and mild meals, and it is absolutely impossible to conflict with the antidote." Xiao Tianhong bowed his body slightly, and continued: "I have a guess: Since the effect of this poison is imitated smallpox, in addition to misleading the doctor's judgment, is it also misleading the doctor's preventive measures?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room suddenly realized.

That’s right, if the poison had been expected to be prevented in the same way as smallpox, wouldn’t the poison intentionally contradict the preventive measures and arouse even stronger toxicity?Then, it is very likely that the problem lies in the smallpox prevention prescription that Ren Ren took before.

"No, the few cured palace people also took preventive medicine beforehand, and there was no problem after taking the antidote." The young imperial physician then denied this statement.

"Instead of guessing here, why don't you just ask Ren Ershao directly? He prescribed the prescription. As a descendant of the Sacred Valley of Medicine, he should be the best able to give the answer. Although Er Shao is already in pain, but the answer A few questions should be fine." The old doctor interjected, stroking his beard.

"Then, let's go in and ask." Almost without thinking, Xiao Tianhong made a decision.

Pushing open the door, there was only one person who was tied up in the house.He hung his head low, his long hair tied behind his head, but there were still some broken hair falling from his forehead, blocking his face.It's just that after a while, the rash on his body has increased, and the red spot on his waist has turned a lot brighter now.

The old doctor gasped in surprise: "The poison is spreading faster than expected!" She looked at the young man standing motionless on the ground with some admiration, this kind of pain is absolutely unbearable.Several of their imperial physicians had also thought about how to relieve his pain, but they did not dare to use medicine or acupuncture, for fear of triggering some side effects, so they could only endure it.And this teenager, who was only in his teens, had been tortured for two hours, but he didn't even groan.

"How do you say? Can't you delay the toxicity?" Xiao Tianhong looked away from the silent Ren Ren and asked several imperial physicians.

"It's really too fast. The heat poison must be drawn out as soon as possible, otherwise the poison will start to damage the internal organs." The young imperial physician frowned.With such a spreading speed, the poison will invade within a day, and even if the people from the Sacred Valley of Medicine arrive, there will be no cure.

"But how to induce?" Another imperial physician said with a sad face: "Acupuncture is the best way. But how to choose? Different acupoint combinations have different ways to induce poison. It can induce poison from the liver meridian. Inducing poison from the Gallbladder Meridian, you can draw poison from... If you choose the wrong one, it may accelerate the onset of toxicity, so...need to test."

Hearing this, Pingting felt a chill in her heart, and with an anxious look on her face, she softly asked Ren Ren, who seemed to be in a coma, "Second Master Ren, the imperial physicians think that the reason for the change in toxicity is because the previous preventive medicine and poison are mutually restraining. Why did other people who took the medicine have no problems? Do you know that this medical theory is..."

The person who hung his head finally responded, his voice was soft and hoarse: "Dragon Sandalwood, Yao Yin."

Just five words, but made everyone in the room change their faces.

Xiao Tianhong felt a severe pain in his heart as if he had been hit hard.He was naive, why didn't he think about Yi Ren Ren's personality, how could he be the one who took the initiative to help him share his worries?Ren Ren will take the initiative to stand up and say that he wants to intervene in this incident, it is not out of good intentions at all...

He thought that his efforts had worked, and Ren Ren's attitude softened.He clearly remembered the shock and bewilderment that flashed across Ren Ren's face when he chose to help Ren Ren lie and was willing to uproot the queen mother's power for him in advance.He really thought that Ren Ren was more or less moved and had changed his mind about him.

Some wanted to laugh, but they only felt the sourness creeping up their throats to their mouths, and they couldn't even pull out a single arc.Although he doesn't know medicine, he also understands the importance of medicine.And the medicine of this preventive medicine is dragon sandalwood... Except for those who often go in and out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, who else can smell it?In fact, that medicine is useless to other people in the harem.

At this point, what else does he not understand?Ren Ren simply watched from the sidelines, only waiting for the situation to get out of hand before taking action to save him.And the purpose?Then it is obvious that the descendants of the Sacred Valley of Medicine appeared in the palace... such news has already been spread.

To achieve the goal by any means, as expected, this is his will.
