"It's all thanks to the empress who wrapped her arm with a belt. If the poison enters the heart and lungs, it will be really hard to save." The imperial doctor changed his subject and bowed down to Si Ningchi, full of praise.
Although half of the emperor's arm was almost blue-purple and completely congested when he was returned to the palace, it was precisely because of this that the emperor's life was saved.
After hearing what the imperial doctor said, everyone turned their attention to Si Ningchi, and even Queen Mother Cui on the side was stunned.
Si Ningchi looked as normal and continued to ask: "It's good that the emperor is safe and sound. We need to have the imperial physician stay at Chengming Palace for the next few days for emergencies."
"I obey the order." The imperial physician bowed in agreement.
"How is the situation with the emperor's uncle? Is there any sign of poisoning?" Si Ningchi raised his hand and continued to ask.
"The Holy King's injury is a bit more serious than that of the Emperor. Fortunately, the root of the injury was not damaged. The long arrow was pulled out to stop the bleeding and was not poisoned." The imperial doctor continued: "Wei Chen checked the murder weapon brought back by General Han and found that only
The hidden dart was rubbed with poison, but no poison was found on the arrow feathers or blade."
"So..." Si Ningchi frowned slightly and said, "It seems that those people know that the Emperor is protected by the Holy King, and the secret escort is the ultimate goal."
Si Ningchi lowered his eyes, raised his eyes to look at the imperial doctor and said, "Has your uncle ever regained consciousness?"
The imperial doctor responded quickly: "The Holy King is fine, but..."
"Your Majesty, you should let the Holy King recover from his injuries." The imperial doctor looked at Si Ningchi and whispered, "The Holy King has been injured many times over the years, leaving many illnesses that are difficult to heal. Compared with the Emperor's
It's dangerous, and the situation of the Holy King is much more serious."
Si Ningchi was slightly stunned when he heard the imperial doctor's words. He was silent for a long time and responded in a low voice: "I understand."
Zhao Zongheng rarely mentioned the hardships when he ascended the throne in front of Si Ningchi. Although she did not like Zhao Yuanzhen, she had to admit that Zhao Yuanzhen protected Zhao Zongheng all the time, even if he gave up himself, he would protect the emperor.
.
During the few years that Zhao Zongheng ascended the throne as emperor, he silently withstood many crises and assassinations. When he first ascended the throne, the emperor's meals were poisoned by the eunuchs who had been testing poison for a year. How many people died among them?
How can the danger be explained clearly in a few words?
As an emperor, you not only have to guard against assassination and poisoning, but you also have to work diligently on government affairs, serve the people and the country.
He is a very good emperor.
Enough to deserve the title of Mingjun.
Everyone in the world praises the emperor for his diligence and virtuousness, but few people praise the merits of the holy king. Even if he was injured, there was never a single complaint.
Si Ningchi went to the side hall. Standing outside the side hall, he saw Zhao Yuanzhen leaning on the bed in the hall. He gritted his teeth and closed his eyes and allowed the medical officer to bandage his wounds. There was almost no trace of skin exposed by the coat he took off.
Everything is in perfect condition.
Some things can only change if you are there personally. Perhaps there is no lack of trust in Zhao Yuanzhen.
If it was all for the emperor and Tianqing, they could coexist peacefully.
"Let General Han and Duke Shen come to see me." Si Ningchi retracted his eyes. After all, he had not entered to disturb him. He turned his head slightly and ordered Su Yongde.
"Yes." Su Yongde did not dare to delay and quickly agreed and went out.
Siningchi did not return to Fengwu Palace, but directly met Han Yulang and Shen Guogong in the main hall of Chengming Palace. This assassination really frightened the old Duke. After entering the main hall of Chengming Palace, he knelt down before Siningchi.
Downloaded.
"Empress, I am guilty!" Shen Guogong cried with snot and tears: "I really didn't expect that inviting the emperor to have a spring outing would lead to the emperor's assassination. I am sorry for the emperor!"
"..." Si Ningchi looked at the wailing Shen Guogong, who looked like a child who made a mistake, and was speechless.
"Your Majesty is fine. Your Majesty does not need to be so sad. I believe that Your Majesty will not blame your Majesty for this." Si Ningchi said patiently.
"I heard from the emperor that the garden on the outskirts of Beijing was bought by the Duke a few days ago. I wonder if the Duke still remembers who sold it." Siningchi lowered his eyes and looked at Shen Guogong and asked in a low voice. Duke Shen wiped his face, recalled carefully and stumbling over his words: "I am just an ordinary businessman. He said he wanted to level the forest and build a house. The old minister felt that the scenery here was beautiful. It would be a pity to cut down the trees, so he just bought it.
Got off."
Shen Guoping's biggest hobby during the day is to walk around the streets, go to the flower and bird market, drink tea and play chess, just to enjoy his old age.
Who would have thought that buying a garden could lead to such a thing...
When Si Ningchi asked carefully, the old man could not say anything. He was older and his acuity was not that high. He could only remember that the first thing he thought about when he bought the forest was that it was spring and he would invite the emperor to enjoy the spring scenery.
, it’s not like he spent so much money in vain!
"General Han, check the origin of this wealthy businessman." Si Ningchi lowered his head, and after a while he looked at Han Yulang and said: "The soldier who assassinated the emperor this time seems to be familiar with the direction in the forest, and most likely has already made arrangements.
”
"Let's check who entered the garden half a month before and after the Duke bought it." Si Ningchi had a very clear mind and methodically organized a timeline for Han Yulang, gradually narrowing the scope of the investigation. "I obey the decree." Han Yulang stood in front of the palace, looking at the Queen sitting on the high throne and feeling a little strange in his heart.
"Have you ever found any evidence from the dead soldiers?" Si Ningchi raised his eyes and looked at Han Yulang and continued to ask.
Han Yulang shook his head and said: "No, these people are very clean. They are obviously soldiers specially trained to kill people. I have already asked someone to copy several portraits and send them to the Ministry of Household Affairs to see if they can be transferred to the household registration. But I hope
It should be slim."
Generally, those used for the training of dead soldiers are mostly orphans, black households, slaves, etc., who are not registered.
Si Ningchi lowered his eyes, tilted his head slightly and said, "Go and get the poison ingredient list that the imperial doctor has tested."
"There are only a few such ferocious poisons circulating in the market. Let's find a way to find out where they came from." Si Ningchi raised his eyes and looked at Han Yulang and said: "Collect the hidden darts and arrow feathers used by those people and send them to the Ministry of War to see if they can be investigated.
Where was it built?"
"We can't let go of any clues." Si Ningchi lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "No matter what, I will make the person behind it pay the price."
Anyone who dares to touch her man is seeking death.
Si Ningchi stood up and said in a calm voice: "General Han, you are fully responsible for this matter. I should be able to trust the general?"
Han Yulang's expression was shocked. He immediately took off his robe and knelt down on one knee, raised his hands and lowered his head, saying, "I will live up to your trust."
Si Ningchi curved his lips and smiled: "Very good. If you have made a great contribution this time, the Emperor will come to you and I will ask for a reward for you."
