The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 474: Promise yourself (3)

 …

Along the way, everyone met two more groups of killers. Perhaps they thought that Xiao Ruiyuan would definitely die after being poisoned by the heart-eating poison. The two groups of killers sent by the mastermind behind him were obviously not as powerful as the previous groups. Before the secret guards could take action, they They were all killed by the guards of the Prince's Mansion.

However, no useful evidence has been found on these killers to indicate who ordered them. Therefore, even if they know that the person behind the scenes is one or several princes who want to seize the throne, they cannot find out the person openly.

The capital was far away, and Xiao Hua, who had been following behind, stopped following. It barked a few times at Maomao high in the sky, said hello to Xiao Ruiyuan, and then disappeared into the vast night under the gaze of everyone. among.

Xiao Ruiyuan, who was so weak that he could only ride with Xiao Jiu, looked at the direction Xiaohua was leaving, and a gentle curve appeared at the corner of his pale mouth: I pledged myself to save my life, and I owed her three lives. What should I do? Is it enough?

Concerned about Xiao Ruiyuan's injury, the group of people rode their horses at a slow speed. Fortunately, except for the two groups of killers they encountered earlier, the situation behind them was relatively safe. Until they successfully entered the city and arrived at the Prince's Mansion, they did not encounter any more killers.

After learning that Xiao Ruiyuan was seriously injured and had been infected with the heart-eating poison like himself, and even almost died from the poison, Chu Heng, who had always been gentle and gentle, dropped the cup for the first time: "They can't wait until I'm dead, okay! Very soon. good!"

Gentle eyes were covered with deep anger. Chu Heng looked at Xiao Ruiyuan, who was lying on the bed with a pale face, and for the first time, he felt sad emotions in his heart.

From the day he was born, he has been suffering from pain all the time, and he is always accompanied by various bitter soups. Even from the moment he became sensible, he had the idea that it would be better to die. If it weren't for his father's love and the encouragement and support of his cousin who had grown up with him, he would have abandoned his dilapidated body and followed his mother.

To outsiders, he is a king, his cousin is a minister, and his cousin is willing to follow him. Even if his cousin dies because of him, it is a worthy death. But in his heart, his cousin is his cousin, his closest relative besides his father. Now those people are blatantly trying to kill his relatives, no matter who they are, he will not let them go!

Worried that his emotions were too excited and his weak body could not bear it, before Xiao Ruiyuan could speak to persuade him, the ghost doctor told the story about the black Ganoderma lucidum in a humorous tone: "Your Highness, thanks to Xiao Xiao's injury, he would not have arrived yet. When will we get the whereabouts of the black Ganoderma! Your Highness, don’t worry, Xiao Xiao will be fine. As long as we can find the thousand-year-old ginseng, the heart-eating poison in Your Highness’s body can be successfully removed!”

Suddenly hearing the news about Black Ganoderma, Chu Heng could hardly believe his ears. He was stunned for a while. After making sure that the ghost doctor would not make such a joke to him, Ruyu's face filled with a strange look!

Seeing the ghost doctor take out the remaining piece of black Ganoderma lucidum, Chu Heng finally believed that he was not dreaming. After hearing the origin of the black Ganoderma lucidum, the hope in his eyes grew stronger.

Resisting the urge to ask about the whereabouts of the owner of Black Ganoderma, Chu Heng glanced at his cousin and said warmly to the ghost doctor: "Old Ghost, since we don't need Millennium Ginseng, please prepare the antidote for Hanzhang as soon as possible to avoid any complications. .”

The ghost doctor responded with all his heart, and checked Xiao Ruiyuan's pulse. When he saw that the sealed toxin did not move, he took the black Ganoderma lucidum to the medicine room with peace of mind.

 The ghost doctor has prepared the auxiliary medicinal materials for detoxifying the heart-devouring poison very early. In addition to black Ganoderma lucidum, thousand-year-old ginseng and red python gall, the others are quite common, but it takes some effort when decoction. Decoction is just a trivial matter for the ghost doctor. It took half an hour to decoct the medicine.

During this half hour, Xiao Ruiyuan and Chu Heng had a careful discussion and reached an agreement: they would temporarily conceal the cure for Xiao Ruiyuan's heart-eating poison from the outside world, and spread the news that he was poisoned and was in danger.

A general who led a hundred thousand troops all the way to the border, risking his life and death to protect the country and people of Chu, was assassinated many times on the way to victory, and even died by a thread. Once this kind of thing is spread, it will definitely cause an uproar whether it is among the people or the court. Emperor Hui'an will definitely investigate the matter thoroughly and give Xiao Ruiyuan an explanation.

By doing this, the two of them did not expect to be able to expose the mastermind behind it and take revenge. They just wanted to use this incident to shock the enemy and expose those people's flaws, so that Emperor Hui'an would know what he was doing and then take advantage of it!
