"Shen Nong's Materia Medica", as the earliest traditional Chinese medicine work, is rumored to have originated from the Shennong family and was passed down orally from generation to generation. It was collected and compiled into a book during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, many medical scientists have collected, summarized, and organized the pharmacological experience at that time.
, is the first systematic summary of traditional Chinese medicine and the source of the theoretical development of traditional Chinese medicine.
Among them, there is a description of a plant: bitter, cold, and very poisonous. It is mainly used for coughing, reversing the upper qi, breaking accumulation, diet, cold and heat, water vapor, malignant sores, rat fistula, poison, killing birds and animals. Health
Valley. "Zhongshan Jing" says that there are grasses in the mountains, which are like grass and hairy, blue and white, and white. If you take it for a long time, it can cause abdominal diseases. "Famous Doctors" said, "Qin Pavilion is born and held high. In February,
Collect the roots in August and dry them in the shade. They are not suitable for permanent use. This is the Wolfsbane flower.
Between the vast desert and grassland, clumps and patches of gray-green grass stand proudly in the dust and gravel. There are red bones on the grass tips that look like match heads, which are called wolfsbane flowers.
The Wolfsbane flower shines tenaciously in the harsh wind and the afterglow of the setting sun. Some people say that it is more poisonous than wolves and brings fear and death threats to people.
The roots, stems and leaves of Wolfsbane flower are highly poisonous and can be made into pharmaceuticals for external application to remove accumulated blood and purify blood. It can also be used as pesticide to control borers and aphids. However, humans and animals must not eat it. The root system of Wolfsbane flower is large.
, has a strong ability to absorb water and can adapt to dry and cold climates. It is difficult for surrounding herbaceous plants to compete with it. The more developed its root system is, the greater its toxicity.
On the plateau, herdsmen gave it such a name because of its poisonous sap. The wolfsbane flower has a large root system and strong water absorption capacity. It can adapt to dry and cold climates and has strong vitality. It is difficult for surrounding herbaceous plants to compete with it.
The most important reason for the proliferation of wolfsbane on the plateau is that people have overgrazed herds and there are fewer other species, so wolfsbane naturally takes advantage of the situation.
Chunyu Yi knew this thing because he had traveled all over the country. If you put it among ordinary medical officers, not to mention recognizing it, not many would have heard of this name. It was with this in mind that Liu Hong wanted to use wolfsbane
The Flower God unknowingly killed Liu Ci, and then Xu Lai and Liu Wucai instigated people to blame Liu Shuang for Liu Ci's death. In this way, Liu Shuang could be eliminated and Liu Guang could successfully take over the throne of Hengshan.
The people sent by Su Ren didn't know what it was, or even the names of the medicinal materials, so they took out some of each medicinal material. Thanks to Su Ren, he heard about it from a friend living in Inner Mongolia.
I had been there and had seen the real thing. After rummaging through a pile of medicinal materials for a long time, I finally determined that the one-inch-long plant root was what I was looking for.
Han Qing hesitated for a long time, but finally accepted the reality. First of all, he had no other way. If Liu Ci was still sober, a visitor might be able to listen to him. Now he is just a fart. If he speaks louder, he will be heard in an instant.
Being killed by someone is still the kind of person who doesn't notice it. Therefore, he can only choose to believe Su Ren and hope that Su Ren can handle these things as he said.
He wanted to kowtow to Su Ren again, but Su Ren stopped him in advance: "I said to you, you have to kowtow all the time. Are you tired? Do you think your knees don't hurt when you kneel on the ground?"
Han Qing said nothing, but Man Niu said: "How can it not hurt? It's so uncomfortable!"
"You're still pretty awesome. Let's look at each of you. Okay, go back to bed. I'm almost exhausted this day!" Su Ren smiled and yawned widely.
Liu Shuang couldn't sleep, and Chun Yuyi came to visit unexpectedly. He thought he was recommending himself to treat Liu Ci. Liu Shuang even made up an excuse to prevaricate, but what Chunyu Yi said was something else. After hearing this, Liu Shuang
He could stuff an egg into his mouth. Su Ren said so many incomprehensible things that day, and Liu Shuang realized that Su Ren was reminding him. He promised Chunyu Yi repeatedly that he would never let anything tragic happen, and then Liu Shuang
The old man sent him away.
Sitting down, Liu Shuang became more and more surprised the more he thought about it, and immediately ordered people to invite the Prime Minister Xi Ci.
Sitting quietly in his study room in a daze, his mind was a little confused. Su Ren guessed correctly, Liu Shuang really did not have the courage to kill his father. Although he also wanted to inherit the throne of Hengshan King as soon as possible, he did not wait in time after Liu Ci fell ill.
Treatment, but let him watch his father being poisoned to death without paying any attention, Liu Shuang couldn't do it. After all, he is still a father and son. His father was murdered, and a son who takes pleasure in his misfortune is just an animal.
Xi Ci came very quickly and frowned when he stepped into Liu Shuang's study: "Your Majesty, why don't you light the lamp?"
Liu Shuang finally came to his senses and took a deep breath: "Sit down!"
"What's wrong with the prince?"
"Someone wants to murder my father!"
Xi Ci took a breath and suddenly remembered Su Ren's words that day: "What does the Crown Prince mean, Xu Lai and the others want to harm the king?"
"It's not Xu Lai, it's Liu Hong, or the King of Huainan."
"How is this possible? Is it possible that there are assassins in the Huainan Kingdom's envoys?"
Liu Shuang laughed: "Sending assassins is too low-level, look at what this is." Liu Shuang handed the piece of Wolfsbane flower root that Chun Yuyi brought to Xi Ci.
Using the moonlight and starlight, Xi Ci looked at it for a long time and shook his head: "It seems to be a medicinal material. I'm sorry for my ignorance, but I don't know what this thing is."
"This thing is called wolfsbane. It is a plant on the plateau. Its roots, stems, leaves and fruits are all very poisonous. If eaten by a good person, it may be able to promote qi, relieve cough and eliminate phlegm. If eaten by a patient, it will be very poisonous."
Eighty-nine will not survive more than five days."
Xi Ci was startled and the wolfsbane flower root in his hand fell to the ground.
Liu Shuang continued: "Don't be afraid, Prime Minister. Although this thing is poisonous, it is only effective if you eat it. It also has a name, called wolfsbane flower. The herdsmen on the plateau think this thing is more terrifying than wolves."
"Where did this thing come from? Why must the prince be from the Huainan Kingdom's mission?"
"Mr. Chunyu, the miracle doctor, came here just now. He brought this wolfsbane flower. He said he picked it up outside the post house in the east of the city. He thought it was strange, so he came to tell me."
Xi Ci's brows furrowed into the Chinese character "Chuan": "I picked it up outside the posthouse in the east of the city. It doesn't prove that it belongs to the Huainan State Mission."
Liu Shuang raised his head and glanced at Xi Ci: "The Prime Minister really thought that Mr. Chunyu picked it up? I guess it was Su Ren who asked Mr. Chunyu to say so. It should be Su Ren who sent someone to the east station of the city.
I found it among the things brought by the Huainan State envoy, and in order to deceive others, I asked Mr. Chunyu to send it."
Looking at the plant root in his hand, Xi Ci's head was racing rapidly. From Su Ren's words to the current situation, Xi Ci continued to analyze and imagine. The two of them sat quietly, and the room was so dark and dirty that they could only see
The space is as big as a palm. Sitting opposite each other, one cannot see the expression of the person opposite.
After a long time, Xi Ci coughed lightly: "Your Majesty, what are you going to do?"
Liu Shuang didn't say anything. Xi Ci continued: "Since Mr. Chunyu has testified, not many people recognize this thing, so it's better..."
"That's my father!"
Xi Ci immediately shut up and swallowed the second half of the sentence. Liu Shuang sighed softly: "I have thought about it too, but it must be my father. If I watch him being murdered, I will probably have a hard time in this life."
Now whenever I close my eyes, I see my father’s shadow.”
"In this case, we have to find a way to involve those two bitches. I think this matter must be related to those two bitches. As long as we work hard to investigate, we will definitely find out."
"Tomorrow is the day when the Huainan State mission will make its contribution. It's less than three hours before dawn. No matter how many people are sent, there will be no results."
Xi Ci said: "That's not necessarily the case, as long as the king believes it." Xi Ci moved to Liu Shuang's side, lay down in Liu Shuang's ear and began to whisper. There were only two of them in the room, and Xi Ci's voice was very soft.
Someone was hiding outside the window and couldn't hear it.
After a long while, Liu Shuang nodded: "Okay, just follow what the Prime Minister said!"
Ever since King Liu Ci of Hengshan fell ill, the entire Hengshan Kingdom has become tense, especially the palace and Liu'an City. The level of alert has been raised to a higher level. Zhang Guangchang lives on the top of the city tower every day, keeping his clothes on and his weapons in hand to guard against any accidents.
He is the general of the Hengshan Kingdom and is loyal to Liu Ci. At this dangerous moment, Zhang Guangchang has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
After patrolling around the city and returning to the temporary resting place on the city tower, Zhang Guangchang was lying on the couch holding his sword and clothes. He was thinking about what else in Lu'an City he had not noticed and where the defense was insufficient. Suddenly he thought
It seems that the palace needs to be strengthened, especially around the palace of King Hengshan. Now that the king is ill, the bad guys must not be allowed to take advantage of it.
"Report, General, the Prime Minister of the country wants to see you!"
Zhang Guangchang got up and said: "Prime Minister? What is he here for?"
The messenger said: "I don't know, the minister said that he has important matters to discuss with the general, and they are related to the king."
"Please!"
In Zhang Guangchang's temporary tent, Xi Ci came in with a dusty look. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "General! The safety of Hengshan Kingdom only depends on you!"
Zhang Guangchang frowned: "I wonder why the Prime Minister came to visit late at night?"
Xi Ci then told Zhang Guangchang the story of Chunyu Yi sending the poison, omitting the part about Su Ren. After finishing the story, he continued: "This is the murder of the king, general. We are all ministers of Hengshan Kingdom."
, we must not let this happen, and please ask the general to immediately lead troops to surround the post house and find all the poisons, otherwise it will be too late!"
Zhang Guangchang immediately said: "What the Prime Minister said is absolutely true, I will send someone right away!"
"The general has to go in person. This involves the queen and the princess. Others may make mistakes! Only when the general is personally in charge can people feel at ease."
Zhang Guangchang thought for a while: "The Prime Minister is right! If anyone comes, please immediately gather a group of troops and follow me to the east station of the city!"
Military orders came crashing down, and with one word from Zhang Guangchang, the sleeping soldiers were immediately woken up. After a cup of tea, a team of 500 people was assembled. With a wave of Zhang Guangchang's hand, the city gate was opened, and the soldiers
They marched in neat steps and followed Zhang Guangchang out of the city.
With a smile on his lips, Xi Ci watched Zhang Guangchang lead people away, got into his carriage, and ordered: "Go to Cuixiang Tower, quickly!" (To be continued)
