Chen Fuyin hurriedly handed over his hand to Chai Yan to confess his crime, and followed Xu Mao's footsteps.
Then, Chai Yan heard Xu Mao's startled voice coming from the inner hall. As for the content of the words, Chai Yan couldn't hear clearly.
Not long after, Chai Yan saw someone coming out of the inner hall. It was Xu Mao angrily grabbing the doctor's lapel. Chen Fuyin was still beside him, trying to persuade him. He didn't know what was going on.
Xu Mao angrily pushed the doctor to the corridor, and then said angrily: "Come here, beat this quack doctor to death!"
The doctor was so frightened that he quickly knelt down on the corridor, kowtowed and kept begging for mercy.
However, Xu Mao had no intention of forgiving the doctor, and repeatedly called "Come", but because this was Chen Fuyin's inner hall, no one came to listen to his orders.
"Eunuch Xu, don't be angry. He is just an ordinary civil doctor. It is normal for him to be helpless about the prince's condition!" Chen Fuyin advised.
Chai Yan was a little curious and asked: "Eunuch Xu, why are you so angry? Could it be that His Highness the Crown Prince's wound can't stop bleeding?"
When Xu Mao mentioned this, he became angry. He stepped forward and kicked the doctor who was kowtowing to the ground.
"Chai Yan, do you know that the crossbow arrow that wounded His Highness was poisonous? Your Highness...he was poisoned!" Xu Mao stamped his feet anxiously.
Chai Yan was surprised and said: "Poisoned?"
"Shangguan Peining, has the prince been poisoned? Why didn't you tell me?"
Chai Yan quickly asked Shangguan Peining in his mind whether he had been exposed to the prince's blood just now. Chai Yan didn't believe that Shangguan Peining didn't notice it!
Shangguan Peining said in a lazy voice: "You didn't ask me..."
"You..." Chai Yan was speechless and couldn't refute for a while.
Chai Yan couldn't care less about his entanglement with Shangguan Peining, so he asked the doctor: "Tell me quickly, what kind of poison has His Highness the Crown Prince been poisoned? How to cure it?"
The doctor didn't speak, just lowered his head and trembled. Xu Mao had asked him this question just now, but because he said he didn't know what kind of poison the prince was poisoned, Xu Mao kicked him out and threatened to beat him to death.
Xu Mao said angrily: "How to detoxify it? He doesn't even know what the poison is, so how can he possibly know how to detoxify it?"
"Ah?" Chai Yan was startled, and suddenly understood why the four masked assassins evacuated midway.
It seems that 80% of this poison is not easy to cure!
The doctor had been frightened for a long time, but he started a new round of kowtow to beg for mercy, while saying: "Several adults, I am not good at medical skills. I really don't know what kind of poison is in His Highness the Prince. I am incompetent. I am not good at it."
Incompetent..."
Xu Mao was furious after hearing this, and suddenly rushed up and cursed the doctor. The doctor did not dare to resist, so he could only kneel down obediently and let him humiliate him.
Chen Fuyin immediately dissuaded him and said: "Eunuch Xu, you can't beat him to death! You'd better hurry up and ask for the imperial doctor..."
While Chen Fuyin pulled away the irritable Xu Mao, he turned around and shouted to the kneeling doctor: "Go, go, don't kneel here and be an eyesore, get out of here!"
The doctor was stunned for a moment and then understood immediately. He kowtowed twice and then got up and ran away.
This doctor usually treats illnesses and prescribes medicines for government officials. His medical skills are actually pretty good. However, the poison that the Crown Prince was poisoned with today is so strange that he has never seen it before.
Seeing that the quack doctor had been let go, Xu Mao knew that it was useless to pester him any longer, so he said in a solemn tone: "Master Chen, could you please send someone immediately... No, no, no, I'd better go in person from the Za family."
When you come to the Imperial Medical Office, please take good care of His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Eunuch Xu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here at Xiaguan. Please be at ease," Chen Fuyin immediately replied.
Then, Xu Mao handed over his hand and left quickly.
After Xu Mao left, Chai Yan and Chen Fuyin returned to the room. At this moment, the prince's complexion was not very good. His face was still pale, his lips were black and blue, and there were beads of sweat on his head.
Chen Fuyin walked to the bedside and asked about the prince's condition. The prince was not in good spirits and said he was thirsty and wanted to drink water. Upon hearing this, Chen Fuyin quickly ran to bring water and carefully fed the prince to drink.
Chai Yan stood aside and watched, secretly asking: "Shangguan Peining, does the prince's poison matter?"
Shangguan Peining's tone was calm and she replied in a short voice: "It doesn't matter..."
When Chai Yan heard this, he just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly she had another sentence: "...I can live for six more hours, which is enough to deal with the funeral arrangements!"
"Damn it!" Chai Yan almost choked to death at these words, and then he shouted secretly: "Doesn't it matter what you call this? There's only half a day left, and after half a day, you'll be in trouble!"
Shangguan Peining smiled easily and said calmly: "Why are you in a hurry? I'm not wrong! The leaves of the tonic bean can easily cure this poison. Do you think it's okay?"
"Uh..." Chai Yan lost his temper instantly. He swallowed in embarrassment and thought to himself: "Pretend I didn't say..."
Next, Chai Yan asked Shangguan Peining for the leaves to detoxify, but Shangguan Peining said he could not give them yet, saying that the time had not come yet!
Chai Yan originally wanted to ask why, but after thinking about it for a while, he understood Shangguan Peining's intention.
Chai Yan said: "You want me to detoxify the prince after the imperial doctor comes and is at a loss, right?"
"That's right!" Shangguan Peining said seriously: "Chai Yan, as long as you save the prince's life, you will have a huge backer in the future. When the time comes, he will be embarrassed to refuse to agree to your request, and I will not
It’s for your own good..."
Chai Yan was inexplicably startled, feeling that these words were not Shangguan Peining's style.
After thinking for a while, Chai Yan came to his senses and said: "Shangguan Peining, are you still thinking about the blood of that lioness..."
"Ahem..." Shangguan Peining deliberately coughed twice, and then said angrily: "Chai Yan, who do you think I am? Humph..."
After getting angry, Shangguan Peining became silent.
Chai Yan shook his head and smiled to himself, it seemed that he had really guessed...
But what Shangguan Peining said is indeed correct. Now is not the time to detoxify His Highness the Crown Prince. He will take action only after the Crown Prince has been cured!
Anyway, six hours is enough time...
After drinking the water, the prince felt a little drowsy, but Chen Fuyin was afraid that the prince would just fall asleep, so he kept talking to the prince, asking about the assassin's situation, and assuring the prince that he would hunt down the four assassins.
The daring masked assassin!
Chen Fuyin's mouth went dry as he spoke, and then he felt that he had nothing to say, so he turned to Chai Yan and winked, meaning that he wanted him to come and have a few words to prevent His Highness from falling asleep.
Chai Yan had no choice but to walk to the bed. Just when he was thinking of what to say to cheer up the prince, he heard Xu Mao's voice outside: "Mr. Zhang, please come this way. His Royal Highness is inside..."
....”
Chai Yan thought that there was no need to talk awkwardly now, so he said: "Master Chen, the imperial doctor is here, I will open the door!"
With that said, Chai Yan went over and opened the door, waiting for the arrival of Xu Mao and Dr. Zhang...
