[Rebirth] Landscape and pastoral
Chapter 48 The Second Emperor
A group of people hurried and hurried, and finally arrived at Taoyuan Valley before dark.Entering the valley, although the sky is dark, you can still vaguely see the fairyland-like beauty in the valley.
"Oh my God, have we arrived in a fairyland?" Zhang Ming looked at everything in disbelief and couldn't help but exclaim.
"This must be a fairyland, right?" Bai Yu muttered to himself in astonishment.
"Let's go and clean up where we live first." Wen Qiwen led them into the valley familiarly.
Wen Qiwen was used to seeing the scenery here, without the initial shock.But for those who followed him, it was like entering a new world.A group of people including Wen Qiwu opened wide curious eyes and looked around in amazement.
When they entered the valley, they saw the dense bones all over the ground and almost dared not go in. They never thought that after hell, there would be a fairyland.When they entered the cave, everyone was shocked again.
The cave is clean, spacious and bright, the air is not worse than outside the cave, and the temperature is more suitable for living than the valley outside the cave.The moss on the rock wall of the cave exudes soft light.When sleeping, you can also block the bright light through the array.
The bedding in the cave is barely enough, but there is no bed.Feng Chen and Wen Qiwen huddled together with a few children, and the others made beds in their cave.Wen Qiwu took his younger brothers to find a small cave and live there temporarily.
After setting everyone up, Wen Qiwen took Wen Qiwu out of the valley and went back to move things.Among other things, the milking buffalo must be brought, as well as the things used by the children.Thinking about it this way, they had quite a lot to move.
The two sneaked home at night, and now the Zhang family and Wen's house were empty, and Shi Shi and the others were going to move back when the robbers were wiped out.It's just that the world is chaotic, and no one knows whether there will be a second or third gang of robbers gathered by refugees.
They stayed with Wen Qiwen, and now that something like this happened, they moved back.Just lock the door tightly, and come to help clean up when you are free.
Wen Qiwen and the two brothers packed up the things that needed to be taken away, some of them were carried by the family's ox and donkey, and some of them were carried on their backs, and they rushed back overnight.Before leaving, Wen Qiwu went to Wu's house and quietly greeted Xiang Rong, telling them not to worry.
At night, wild animals come and go.The Wen Qiwen brothers were attacked by a vigorous lynx. Although the donkey was frightened, the lynx also became their bag.Back in the valley, it was already midnight.Zhang Ming and the others were woken up by their movements, got up and helped to unload things together, and then went to rest separately.
Early the next morning, although Wen Qiwen and Wen Qiwu didn't sleep for a long time, they still got up energetically and followed the crowd.They still have a lot of things to do today, the first thing is to tidy up the things they eat and use.
Wen Qiwen introduced the situation in the valley again, and Bai Yu and the others took over his field in surprise.Looking at the food Wen Qiwen had accumulated, Zhang Ming and the older ones felt at ease.
The two brothers, Xiaomei and Pingan, were so excited that they ran wildly in the valley.There was no danger in the valley, so Wen Qiwen let them play.Daoshi dealt with the prey they brought back last night, and everything in the house was so orderly.
Because of their arrival, the deserted valley became much bustling, with a trace of fairy spirit missing and a trace of mundane smoke and dust, but it made people feel more at ease and at ease.
"Brother, if we leave like this, will those people trouble the villagers?" Wen Qiwu was worried about Uncle Shitou and the others.
"It's really hard to say. We've been going back to the village for the past few days to watch in secret, and inquire about the situation of the county government by the way, so we can't leave future troubles." Wen Qiwen was also worried.
"I think the county magistrate Qian should be slaughtered, that's all." Wen Qiwu said with a gesture of wiping his neck.
"With one County Magistrate Qian missing, there will be another County Magistrate Qian on top. How much can you kill?" Wen Qiwen was a little worried. One with a darker heart, youwei junior high school.
"Brother, you are worrying too much. The new county magistrate must have no hatred against us, who will stare at our small village all day long." Wen Qiwu's idea is much simpler. With their current skills, it is definitely more than enough to assassinate a county magistrate .If there is someone worse, or someone who tries to make up their minds, just kill them.Until these people dare not make up their minds, talking about changing a county magistrate is not just changing.
"At that time, we will act according to the situation. If it doesn't work, we can only use ruthless tactics." Wen Qiwen considered using poison to coerce the other party, but Rui Ge was not around.How could these ordinary villagers count against the old fox who had been in officialdom for many years.
On the other side, Zhang Zirui and the guard named Ruan Mingguang rode wildly day and night.Just after leaving the border of Cangzhou, he was plotted and ambushed.If it wasn't for Zhang Zirui's vigilance, the two of them would have almost tripped over the horse rope.
If one plan fails, there is another plan. Dozens of poisonous crossbow bolts come through the air.Each is aimed at their vital points.Zhang Zirui stood in front of Ruan Mingguang, and the long sword in his hand danced like sword flowers with a chilly air.
The sneak attack failed, and a dozen men in black who were hiding in the dark flew from the trees and landed in front of them, and finally surfaced.
"Bold thief, who sent you here?" Ruan Mingguang held the frightened horse with one hand and held the sword in the other.
The men in black didn't have any marks on their weapons and clothes. They were silent, and they swung their knives at once. They looked like dead soldiers who had received rigorous training.The two sides were fighting together, and Zhang Zirui saw that their blades had an abnormal luster, which was obviously poisonous.
"Be careful that the knife is poisonous." Zhang Zirui was forced off his horse as he spoke.
It's not that his skills are inferior to others, it's that he is not good at riding.He can ride a horse, and he still went to the scenic spot to learn half-baked riding skills. It is not bad to be able to ride a horse on the road, let alone fighting on horseback, which is a highly technical job.
Ruan Mingguang was also good at martial arts. With the joint efforts of the two, the black-clothed assassin didn't last long and was wiped out.These people are dead men who will not know the really useful news, even if they are pressed, they will not know.
"Who knows the news about our going north?" Zhang Zirui felt that these people were blocked by such a coincidence, and it was very likely that the news had leaked.
"When we set off, we sent a message back to the northwest." Ruan Mingguang looked gloomy, and he obviously guessed something.
"It seems that this road is not smooth." Zhang Zirui felt that he was always in trouble recently, and he didn't know if Ah Wen and the children at home were doing well.
They went on the road again, and Wen Qiwen was listening to the wall at the county government office.Tian Butou and his party were all injured, and the county government is currently short of manpower, and because of the refugees, the arrangement of the county magistrate Qian was temporarily delayed.
However, he had already assembled the servants in the mansion, and asked Tian Butou, who was only injured in his hand, and two other government servants to go to Sanshui Village together to arrest those who were close to the Zhang family.As for the crime, who would worry about such a trivial matter.
Wen Qiwen went to the place where Qian Ming lived after listening to Qian County Magistrate's arrangement.There were bursts of wailing here, which made people's scalp tingle, and Wen Qiwen's intuition must be something bad again.
He and Wen Qiwu looked at each other, and tacitly jumped up to the roof to peek at the situation inside the house.I saw a teenage boy hanging in front of the bed.His body was bloody from the whip, and the rope that bound his hands had sunk deep into his flesh.
That Shuang'er's lower body was covered in blood, his face was pale, and his lips were bloodless.Obviously, there is already more air out and less air in.Qian Ming sat on a chair not far away, looking at the hanging man with a gloomy expression.His expression was cold, vicious, and with a twist of perversion.
Since he was abolished, his heart has gradually become distorted, and he likes to watch others suffer.Only by watching others suffer more than him can he get temporary relief from his own pain.What he doesn't have now, how can these lowly twins still have it.These were just playthings that he pressed under him and played with at will.
Wen Qiwu was so enraged by this scene that he cursed a beast in his heart.Wen Qiwen signaled him to be safe and calm, and they will come back at night.The father and son of the Qian family can't stay, otherwise, how many pairs will be murdered.
At this time, the father and son of the Qian family, who didn't know that they were in a catastrophe, were still immersed in their own lives.
Tian Butou felt his eyelids twitching, and he had a bad premonition.Thinking that today was the day to go to Sanshui Village again, he felt a thousand reluctances in his heart.I was discounted by someone last time, and I don't know what will happen if I go to provoke those evil spirits again this time?
It's just that if he doesn't go, the whole family is counting on him, and he can't disobey the order of Qian County Magistrate.It's just that when he went to the county government office, he saw that it was in chaos.For some reason, his eyelids twitched even more.
"Tian Butou, you're here. Our master and young master have been given..." Liushen Wuzhu's butler, seeing Tian Butou, cried with snot and tears .Their wives are serving the old man and Mrs. Tai in the ancestral house in the capital.There are only a few aunts and young masters who came to take up the post, and now everyone in charge of the family has been murdered, and no one is in charge of the overall situation.
"What—" Tian Butou was taken aback, and felt that it was the Zhang family who did it. "Send someone to invite the county magistrate to let him preside over the overall situation temporarily."
The housekeeper hurriedly sent someone to invite the magistrate, and then took Tian Butou to the bedroom of magistrate Qian.County magistrate Qian was lying on the bed. There was no trace of blood on his body, but his face was pale and his eyes were closed.
If it wasn't for his body being cold and gradually becoming stiff, he really wouldn't be able to see that he was dead.Qian Ming was in the same situation as him, otherwise the housekeeper wouldn't have said that he was murdered instead of being killed suddenly.
Wen Qiwen and Wen Qiwu had returned to the village at this time, and asked Da Zhuang to go to Yanwanggou for business.Light a bunch of fireworks outside Yanwanggou, and they will appear automatically.In addition, the family also troubles them to watch more, so as not to be deserted when they are away.
"Awen, it's not a solution for you to keep hiding like this." Erzhu looked at them worriedly. There was nothing in the mountain, and there were many insects, ants and beasts.Adults are not doing well, how can children stand it?
"Uncle, don't worry, the place we live in is safe."
The two bid farewell to Erzhu's family and left the village.
It's just that their hearts were a little heavy. When they went to the county government at night, the Shuang'er they saw during the day had been tortured to death.Although they broke the hearts of Qian's father and son and killed them.But those who died because of this father and son cannot be saved.
After the death of Qian County Magistrate, the original county magistrate took over the post of county magistrate.It's just that the new county magistrate only said that magistrate Qian's father and son died suddenly due to an emergency.There is no evidence, the body has no external injuries, and there is no trace of anyone entering the house of the Qian family and his son. The cause of death cannot be found out. What else can it be if it is not a sudden death?
The new county magistrate felt that he really wanted to pursue this matter, but he was unable to solve the case.At that time, this hard-won official position may not only be lost, but if it is not done well, it will not even be able to be an official.
As for what to do with the Qian family in the capital, he couldn't control it.It's just that there is no evidence, no cause of death, he is really difficult to deal with, isn't it?And he also has someone in Beijing, even if there is no such thing, he will be promoted elsewhere in the near future.
Tian Tutou is also a smart man, since the new county magistrate pretended to be confused, he pretended to be.He didn't have to face the Zhang family, it was too late for him to burn incense.The squires in the county also stopped, none of them were fools.Only Wen Chengcai hid at home in panic all day long, worried that Wen Qiwen and the others would seek revenge on him.
"Brother, let's just let Wen Chengcai go like this."
As soon as Wen Qiwu thought that it was Wen Chengcai who was plotting against them again this time, he felt angry.Finally, on the way back, he asked the question in his heart.
"It's okay, let him be comfortable for a few days first. If we do something at this time, others will definitely suspect us. In the future, it will hurt Ping An's reputation, so it's better to be more pregnant at this time, and take him slowly in the future." Wen Chengcai, the current Wen Qiwen doesn't take him seriously.
"That's fine, but this hatred will be avenged sooner or later." New hatred and old hatred, even blood relatives, can't stop the hatred brought about by those injuries.
In this way, Wen Qiwen took his family and lived in Taoyuan Valley.Even if the rumors outside subsided, I didn't think about moving back.Now that the world is chaotic outside, with so many people at home, he is afraid that he will not be able to protect him.Especially my two lovely sons, this place is more suitable for them to grow up.
They'll move back when it's calmer outside or when Brother Rui comes back.Now the family's house is let Qin and Xiaoyue live first, and help clean it by the way.It is also convenient for the boys in the village to practice martial arts.And Uncle Shitou decided to build up the fence of his yard first, so that the safety of the family was also guaranteed.
Wen Qiwen and Wen Qiwu got busy in Taoyuan Valley. There was no bed in the valley, so Wen Qiwen took Wen Qiwu to make it together. If there was no cabinet, he did it himself.Add some of this at home today, and get some of that tomorrow.The big cave connecting the small caves has been turned into a hall, and now there are tables, chairs and benches.
Beds and wardrobes have been added to the empty caves one after another, and everyone lives separately now.A shed was built outside the cave and a stove was built.There are too many people, it is convenient to have a stove.Wen Qiwu would go back to the village every once in a while, teaching martial arts to the boys in the village, and go to the county town to inquire about news.
It took Zhang Zirui and Ruan Mingguang ten days to reach Liangzhou.This journey is really a tough test.Whether it is physical or psychological.
Now Dalu is devastated, starving and dying everywhere, and there are refugees fleeing famine everywhere.In order to survive, people tried their best to sell their sons and daughters, and robbed their homes.Some people have risen up, ready to overthrow this incompetent imperial court.
Towns and villages became the targets of looting, and the wealthy households in the county town were still in panic, even though they still had fine clothes and delicacies.I was worried that one day I would be killed by the rebels or bandits.Zhoucheng is relatively safe, but refugees gather outside the city, pedestrians are few in the city, and there are soldiers wearing armor patrolling everywhere.
It took Zhang Zirui and the others more than ten days to enter a farm outside Liangzhou City.King Cheng is now a commoner, and he has lived here since he was assigned.
As soon as Zhang Zirui arrived, he was invited into King Cheng's bedroom before he had time to rest.King Cheng's face turned blue, his eyes were closed, and he was lying on the bed.His breathing at this time was already weak, and although the dragon energy on his body hadn't weakened, it seemed to be scattered.
Zhang Zirui turned pale with shock, and hurriedly felt the pulse of King Cheng.An eight-year-old boy next to King Cheng's bed wanted to stop him.But Wei Xuan stopped him, and Wei Xuan shook his head slightly at him.He returned to stand by the bed with a blank expression.
"How did King Cheng get poisoned, how long has he been poisoned, and what medicine did he use after being poisoned..." Zhang Zirui asked while giving King Cheng a diagnosis.Doctor Bai answered everything in detail, and Wei Xuan made up what he couldn't answer.
Zhang Zirui frowned more and more tightly, the poison in King Cheng was very domineering.If it weren't for the warmth of his pills mixed with elixir, his internal organs would have rotted away.
"Mr. Zhang, can the prince be saved?" Seeing him like this, Wei Xuan couldn't help being worried, but full of expectation.
"Sir, please save my father." The child couldn't help but begged seeing Wei Xuan, whom his father trusted the most, showing hope.
"It can be saved, but his internal organs are all damaged now. If he goes back with me for recuperation, he will be cured. If the prince can't go, he can only be treated here. I'm afraid it will affect the life of the prince." I definitely can't go back with him, King Cheng has gone to cultivate, who will save him in this world?
"Mister, please wake up the prince first. What happens next is entirely up to the prince." Wei Xuan's face was very ugly, and now they are on the ropes of an arrow and have no choice but to fire.
"I will do my best." After Zhang Zirui finished speaking, he carefully took out a bottle of pills from his arms, and stuffed one into King Cheng's mouth.Then put silver needles in various big holes on his body, and use spiritual power to force out the poison from his body bit by bit.After a while, traces of black blood flowed out along the silver needle.
When Zhang Zirui pulled out the silver needles, the pair of silver needles had been destroyed and could no longer be used.Zhang Zirui carefully put away the silver needle, the blackened and corroded silver needle could be used as a concealed weapon.As for configuring the antidote?I'm sorry he can't, he is not a poison fairy or a doctor fairy.
After some treatment, the pro-black look on Cheng Wang's face eased a lot.At this time, the servant who was standing by the side stepped forward, changed King Cheng's dirty clothes, and wiped away the black blood.They moved carefully, and handled the changed clothes very carefully.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang." The serious boy bowed respectfully to Zhang Zirui to thank him.It's just that when he bowed down, he fell straight to the ground under the action of gravity.
Zhang Zirui caught him with quick eyes and hands, and then grasped his pulse, his face darkened instantly.This child already has a trace of dragon spirit at such a young age, so it can be seen that he is the son of the world.Just why was he also poisoned?
"He was poisoned too."
"It's because of the poor protection of the subordinates that the lord and the prince suffered this calamity." Wei Xuan knelt down with a face full of self-blame, and looked at the prince worriedly.Doctor Bai even felt that he was not good at learning, but he didn't realize it.
It's just that he didn't know that Zhang Zirui didn't notice the pulse, but he just felt that something was wrong, so he used his spiritual sense to see through Shizi.
"Commander Wei, it's not your fault. Who would have thought that the princess would poison her husband and children." Doctor Bai sighed, because he was too busy with this matter.
Zhang Zirui felt that their conversation contained too much information, and he accidentally learned the royal secret.He saved the big one and the young one at the same time.If someone else changed this, he would definitely not be able to support it.
Seeing that Doctor Bai was in high spirits, he was about to go home with the wind.The poison in Xiaoshizi is a chronic poison, which needs to be recuperated well, and detoxification is not something that will happen in a short while.
Three days later, King Cheng finally woke up under everyone's expectant eyes.
"Thank you sir for saving your life."
"The prince has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, I just did what I should do."
"There will be Mr. Lao next." After saying this, King Cheng cheered up and looked at Shizi. "Son, the king didn't protect you well."
"Father, it's not your fault." Shizi's face was still tense, but he couldn't hide the pain in his eyes.
"Don't be sad, you will still have your father in the future."
"Hmm." Shi Zi nodded.
"Wei Xuan, how is the investigation going?"
Zhang Zirui saw that he had just woken up and had so many things to deal with, and felt that it was not easy to be the master of the world.Now that the Dragon Qi in King Cheng's body has stabilized, he is relieved.But the good man made it to the end, and he fed King Cheng another pill.
After taking the elixir, King Cheng immediately felt much more refreshed, and smiled gratefully at Zhang Zirui, saying that his time was running out.
"It has been found out that the princess is a spy placed by your side by the late emperor..."
The first brother is the elder brother of King Cheng, and King Cheng is not the brother of today's son, but the youngest uncle.The first emperor saw that none of his sons could live up to expectations, but he was unwilling to let the throne fall into the hands of his brothers.
So he married the daughter of his loyal subordinate to King Cheng. Princess Cheng hated King Cheng, and hated the first emperor even more.If it wasn't for their royal schemes, she would have married her childhood sweetheart's cousin now.
She concealed her hatred very well, and always acted virtuous and virtuous in front of King Cheng, as close as a guest to the prince.When the prince was dispatched, she refused the emperor's pardon and took the initiative to follow the prince to the desolate northwest.And they also have a smart and studious child who is also the future son of the palace.
If it hadn't been for the prince being poisoned this time, no one would have thought that the princess is actually a femme fatale with vicious thoughts, who would never let her parents and children be spared.When Wei Xuan first found out, he couldn't believe it, but the evidence was solid.And it was because of his momentary hesitation that Princess Cheng had the opportunity to reveal Zhang Zirui's whereabouts.
"Oh my God, have we arrived in a fairyland?" Zhang Ming looked at everything in disbelief and couldn't help but exclaim.
"This must be a fairyland, right?" Bai Yu muttered to himself in astonishment.
"Let's go and clean up where we live first." Wen Qiwen led them into the valley familiarly.

Wen Qiwen and Wen Qiwu had returned to the village at this time, and asked Da Zhuang to go to Yanwanggou for business.Light a bunch of fireworks outside Yanwanggou, and they will appear automatically.In addition, the family also troubles them to watch more, so as not to be deserted when they are away.
"Awen, it's not a solution for you to keep hiding like this." Erzhu looked at them worriedly. There was nothing in the mountain, and there were many insects, ants and beasts.Adults are not doing well, how can children stand it?
"Uncle, don't worry, the place we live in is safe."
The two bid farewell to Erzhu's family and left the village.
It's just that their hearts were a little heavy. When they went to the county government at night, the Shuang'er they saw during the day had been tortured to death.Although they broke the hearts of Qian's father and son and killed them.But those who died because of this father and son cannot be saved.
After the death of Qian County Magistrate, the original county magistrate took over the post of county magistrate.It's just that the new county magistrate only said that magistrate Qian's father and son died suddenly due to an emergency.There is no evidence, the body has no external injuries, and there is no trace of anyone entering the house of the Qian family and his son. The cause of death cannot be found out. What else can it be if it is not a sudden death?
The new county magistrate felt that he really wanted to pursue this matter, but he was unable to solve the case.At that time, this hard-won official position may not only be lost, but if it is not done well, it will not even be able to be an official.
As for what to do with the Qian family in the capital, he couldn't control it.It's just that there is no evidence, no cause of death, he is really difficult to deal with, isn't it?And he also has someone in Beijing, even if there is no such thing, he will be promoted elsewhere in the near future.
Tian Tutou is also a smart man, since the new county magistrate pretended to be confused, he pretended to be.He didn't have to face the Zhang family, it was too late for him to burn incense.The squires in the county also stopped, none of them were fools.Only Wen Chengcai hid at home in panic all day long, worried that Wen Qiwen and the others would seek revenge on him.
"Brother, let's just let Wen Chengcai go like this."
As soon as Wen Qiwu thought that it was Wen Chengcai who was plotting against them again this time, he felt angry.Finally, on the way back, he asked the question in his heart.
"It's okay, let him be comfortable for a few days first. If we do something at this time, others will definitely suspect us. In the future, it will hurt Ping An's reputation, so it's better to be more pregnant at this time, and take him slowly in the future." Wen Chengcai, the current Wen Qiwen doesn't take him seriously.
"That's fine, but this hatred will be avenged sooner or later." New hatred and old hatred, even blood relatives, can't stop the hatred brought about by those injuries.
In this way, Wen Qiwen took his family and lived in Taoyuan Valley.Even if the rumors outside subsided, I didn't think about moving back.Now that the world is chaotic outside, with so many people at home, he is afraid that he will not be able to protect him.Especially my two lovely sons, this place is more suitable for them to grow up.
They'll move back when it's calmer outside or when Brother Rui comes back.Now the family's house is let Qin and Xiaoyue live first, and help clean it by the way.It is also convenient for the boys in the village to practice martial arts.And Uncle Shitou decided to build up the fence of his yard first, so that the safety of the family was also guaranteed.
Wen Qiwen and Wen Qiwu got busy in Taoyuan Valley. There was no bed in the valley, so Wen Qiwen took Wen Qiwu to make it together. If there was no cabinet, he did it himself.Add some of this at home today, and get some of that tomorrow.The big cave connecting the small caves has been turned into a hall, and now there are tables, chairs and benches.
Beds and wardrobes have been added to the empty caves one after another, and everyone lives separately now.A shed was built outside the cave and a stove was built.There are too many people, it is convenient to have a stove.Wen Qiwu would go back to the village every once in a while, teaching martial arts to the boys in the village, and go to the county town to inquire about news.
It took Zhang Zirui and Ruan Mingguang ten days to reach Liangzhou.This journey is really a tough test.Whether it is physical or psychological.
Now Dalu is devastated, starving and dying everywhere, and there are refugees fleeing famine everywhere.In order to survive, people tried their best to sell their sons and daughters, and robbed their homes.Some people have risen up, ready to overthrow this incompetent imperial court.
Towns and villages became the targets of looting, and the wealthy households in the county town were still in panic, even though they still had fine clothes and delicacies.I was worried that one day I would be killed by the rebels or bandits.Zhoucheng is relatively safe, but refugees gather outside the city, pedestrians are few in the city, and there are soldiers wearing armor patrolling everywhere.
It took Zhang Zirui and the others more than ten days to enter a farm outside Liangzhou City.King Cheng is now a commoner, and he has lived here since he was assigned.
As soon as Zhang Zirui arrived, he was invited into King Cheng's bedroom before he had time to rest.King Cheng's face turned blue, his eyes were closed, and he was lying on the bed.His breathing at this time was already weak, and although the dragon energy on his body hadn't weakened, it seemed to be scattered.
Zhang Zirui turned pale with shock, and hurriedly felt the pulse of King Cheng.An eight-year-old boy next to King Cheng's bed wanted to stop him.But Wei Xuan stopped him, and Wei Xuan shook his head slightly at him.He returned to stand by the bed with a blank expression.
"How did King Cheng get poisoned, how long has he been poisoned, and what medicine did he use after being poisoned..." Zhang Zirui asked while giving King Cheng a diagnosis.Doctor Bai answered everything in detail, and Wei Xuan made up what he couldn't answer.
Zhang Zirui frowned more and more tightly, the poison in King Cheng was very domineering.If it weren't for the warmth of his pills mixed with elixir, his internal organs would have rotted away.
"Mr. Zhang, can the prince be saved?" Seeing him like this, Wei Xuan couldn't help being worried, but full of expectation.
"Sir, please save my father." The child couldn't help but begged seeing Wei Xuan, whom his father trusted the most, showing hope.
"It can be saved, but his internal organs are all damaged now. If he goes back with me for recuperation, he will be cured. If the prince can't go, he can only be treated here. I'm afraid it will affect the life of the prince." I definitely can't go back with him, King Cheng has gone to cultivate, who will save him in this world?
"Mister, please wake up the prince first. What happens next is entirely up to the prince." Wei Xuan's face was very ugly, and now they are on the ropes of an arrow and have no choice but to fire.
"I will do my best." After Zhang Zirui finished speaking, he carefully took out a bottle of pills from his arms, and stuffed one into King Cheng's mouth.Then put silver needles in various big holes on his body, and use spiritual power to force out the poison from his body bit by bit.After a while, traces of black blood flowed out along the silver needle.
When Zhang Zirui pulled out the silver needles, the pair of silver needles had been destroyed and could no longer be used.Zhang Zirui carefully put away the silver needle, the blackened and corroded silver needle could be used as a concealed weapon.As for configuring the antidote?I'm sorry he can't, he is not a poison fairy or a doctor fairy.
After some treatment, the pro-black look on Cheng Wang's face eased a lot.At this time, the servant who was standing by the side stepped forward, changed King Cheng's dirty clothes, and wiped away the black blood.They moved carefully, and handled the changed clothes very carefully.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang." The serious boy bowed respectfully to Zhang Zirui to thank him.It's just that when he bowed down, he fell straight to the ground under the action of gravity.
Zhang Zirui caught him with quick eyes and hands, and then grasped his pulse, his face darkened instantly.This child already has a trace of dragon spirit at such a young age, so it can be seen that he is the son of the world.Just why was he also poisoned?
"He was poisoned too."
"It's because of the poor protection of the subordinates that the lord and the prince suffered this calamity." Wei Xuan knelt down with a face full of self-blame, and looked at the prince worriedly.Doctor Bai even felt that he was not good at learning, but he didn't realize it.
It's just that he didn't know that Zhang Zirui didn't notice the pulse, but he just felt that something was wrong, so he used his spiritual sense to see through Shizi.
"Commander Wei, it's not your fault. Who would have thought that the princess would poison her husband and children." Doctor Bai sighed, because he was too busy with this matter.
Zhang Zirui felt that their conversation contained too much information, and he accidentally learned the royal secret.He saved the big one and the young one at the same time.If someone else changed this, he would definitely not be able to support it.
Seeing that Doctor Bai was in high spirits, he was about to go home with the wind.The poison in Xiaoshizi is a chronic poison, which needs to be recuperated well, and detoxification is not something that will happen in a short while.
Three days later, King Cheng finally woke up under everyone's expectant eyes.
"Thank you sir for saving your life."
"The prince has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, I just did what I should do."
"There will be Mr. Lao next." After saying this, King Cheng cheered up and looked at Shizi. "Son, the king didn't protect you well."
"Father, it's not your fault." Shizi's face was still tense, but he couldn't hide the pain in his eyes.
"Don't be sad, you will still have your father in the future."
"Hmm." Shi Zi nodded.
"Wei Xuan, how is the investigation going?"
Zhang Zirui saw that he had just woken up and had so many things to deal with, and felt that it was not easy to be the master of the world.Now that the Dragon Qi in King Cheng's body has stabilized, he is relieved.But the good man made it to the end, and he fed King Cheng another pill.
After taking the elixir, King Cheng immediately felt much more refreshed, and smiled gratefully at Zhang Zirui, saying that his time was running out.
"It has been found out that the princess is a spy placed by your side by the late emperor..."
The first brother is the elder brother of King Cheng, and King Cheng is not the brother of today's son, but the youngest uncle.The first emperor saw that none of his sons could live up to expectations, but he was unwilling to let the throne fall into the hands of his brothers.
So he married the daughter of his loyal subordinate to King Cheng. Princess Cheng hated King Cheng, and hated the first emperor even more.If it wasn't for their royal schemes, she would have married her childhood sweetheart's cousin now.
She concealed her hatred very well, and always acted virtuous and virtuous in front of King Cheng, as close as a guest to the prince.When the prince was dispatched, she refused the emperor's pardon and took the initiative to follow the prince to the desolate northwest.And they also have a smart and studious child who is also the future son of the palace.
If it hadn't been for the prince being poisoned this time, no one would have thought that the princess is actually a femme fatale with vicious thoughts, who would never let her parents and children be spared.When Wei Xuan first found out, he couldn't believe it, but the evidence was solid.And it was because of his momentary hesitation that Princess Cheng had the opportunity to reveal Zhang Zirui's whereabouts.
