Chapter 193 The Princess is Poisoned
Zhen Mansion, where the eldest princess lives.
A handsome middle-aged man in a gray-white robe stood respectfully at the bottom of the inner hall.
In front of him, sitting on the round-backed huanghuali chair, the eldest princess's face was cold and her tense face was filled with faint anger.
"Did Shen Chong not allow Chuan'er to come see me?"
Yi Zong lowered his head and replied, "The entire Beidi capital is under martial law. It seems something big has happened in the city. The guards in the imperial palace have been increased dozens of times. Not even a fly can fly in."
"Chuan'er must have lost the battle, and Shen Chong must have held him accountable! That bitch An Meir will definitely not let Chuan'er go! No, I have to go to Yuye City to rescue my son!!"
"Princess!" Yi Zong stepped forward and supported Zhao Ming, whose steps were a little unsteady and flustered. "With your current status, you can't enter Beidi!"
"Then am I just going to watch my Chuan'er get killed?!" Zhaoming was furious. He pushed Yi Zong away and collapsed on the ground.
"Tianqi has been weak for so many years, causing me to suffer in Beidi! If Tianqi hadn't finally won five years ago, I wouldn't be able to come back..."
"The only thing I regret is not trying to bring Chuan'er back with me. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been persecuted and disfigured."
Yi Zong lowered his eyes, his calm face showing no expression, but in his eyes, there was a hidden emotion.
"Princess, the Eighth Prince has become the commander-in-chief of the Northern Di Army. This shows that the Emperor still values him."
"You value her?" The princess's delicate face was filled with ferocity and hatred. "He's using Chuan'er as a whetstone for Shen Wen to climb the ladder to heaven!"
"Just because Chuan'er's mother is the eldest princess of Tianqi, and because she is of foreign blood, should my child be treated like this?"
"When she was so young, he sent her out of the palace, leaving her to grow up without me. When did he start to consider her his son?"
Yi Zong knew that she was talking about her sad part, so he fell silent and stood aside to listen to her vent.
"Shen Chong, that heartless, ruthless bastard! One day, I will kill him and make him die with that bitch on the throne he cares about most!"
"And their son, Shen Wen, one day, I will make him pay the price for what he did to Chuan'er!"
This was her only thought after returning home.
In the end, the throne of Beidi must be occupied by her son!
To achieve this goal, she will not hesitate to use any means!
Chuan'er, wait for your mother a little longer, she will definitely reunite with you!
Tears mixed with hatred melted the makeup on her face, revealing her white skin with red spots underneath the foundation.
At this moment, she felt a slight pain, and was overwhelmed by longing, anger, hatred, and all kinds of emotions. She had not yet noticed the changes in her body.
However, Yi Zong, who was standing by, noticed the unusual red spots on her face and neck.
"Eldest Princess!!"
Zhaoming heard the panic in his voice and turned to look. He stared at her face and neck with worry and fear. Feeling offended, she immediately shouted, "Yi Zong! How dare you!"
"Princess, your face..."
"Quick, call the imperial physician!"
The exclamation was heard outside.
Doctor Zhang from Beijing came quickly.
He had just finished watching the Grand Tutor's daughter, Zhu Zifeng, whose fingertips were horribly scarred by the acupuncture. She had no idea how many needle holes were on her body. The delicate girl had been left limp and visibly miserable.
However, apart from sighing, he had no other emotions. This kind of punishment was the most common in the palace.
In addition to the acupuncture, she also had some rashes on her body and pain all over her body. Before he could figure out the specific cause of the illness, he heard that the eldest princess had suddenly fallen ill.
After packing up, he dragged his old body and ran towards the eldest princess's bedroom again, not daring to stop for a moment.
At this time, the eldest princess's voice of unbearable pain was heard from the gauze curtains of the bedroom.
"Quick, come and see what's wrong with the princess?!"
Yi Zong's face was full of panic. This was his first time appearing in public. But at this moment, he couldn't care less.
Compared to her life, he didn't care about her reputation at all!
The imperial physician glanced at the man in front of him. Although he was a little puzzled, he didn't ask any more questions. The affairs of the royal family were not something he could casually interfere in.
"Doctor Zhang, my face hurts so much, it feels like a needle prick! Help me!"
When the eldest princess cried out in pain, the imperial physician's heart sank.
This sounds very similar to Miss Zhu's symptoms!
Not daring to delay any longer, he hurriedly felt the pulse. The next moment, his expression changed drastically, and he said hurriedly, "Your humble servant is being abrupt. Could you please allow me to examine Your Highness's face?"
After hearing this, Yi Zong immediately stepped forward and lifted the gauze curtain in front of Zhaoming's couch, "Look!"
When your life is at stake, who cares about rules and etiquette? Life is the most important thing!
After Imperial Doctor Zhang examined her, he was basically certain, "The Princess has been poisoned by the same poison as Miss Zhu!"
"Poisoned?! What poison?" Yi Zong's eyebrows, as thick as long swords, suddenly stood up. The eldest princess has been under his sight the whole time, how could she be poisoned?
Could it be the moment when I left?
"I don't know either, but I've never seen this poison before. It's a bit tricky for the moment..."
"Never seen it? Does that mean you have no way to save it?"
"I have some guesses, but they will take time to verify. However, this poison is so fierce and powerful, I'm afraid..."
The princess's painful moans echoed from time to time, causing Yi Zong to panic. For a moment, he couldn't even control his emotions. "What are you afraid of? Speak clearly! If you hesitate again, I'll kill you!"
Doctor Zhang was so intimidated by the overwhelming pressure emanating from him that his voice trembled, "Princess, I'm afraid I can't wait that long..."
"what?"
When Zhaoming heard this, he suddenly lifted the gauze curtain on the couch. The red rash on his face had begun to turn white, and a light yellow liquid was secreted in the middle, looking like an abscess that was about to rot.
At this moment, her face showed uncontrollable fear, anger, and a bit of ferocity, making the face that once dominated the world become extremely terrifying.
"If you can't cure me, I will bury you with me!!"
The shrill sound was like that of an evil spirit. In an instant, servants knelt on the ground inside and outside the house.
At this time, Yi Zong calmed down instead.
She had lost her mind, and he couldn't lose his mind with her.
"Is there any way to relieve the princess's pain?"
As for the detoxification theory, we can look into it later.
Doctor Zhang thought for a moment and said cautiously, "Yes, but this method may make the princess's condition worse. I suggest that it is better for her to drink some pain-relieving powder that will not affect her condition."
"Although I can't completely relieve the princess's pain, it can at least alleviate it a lot."
"Then go get ready! What are you standing there for?"
Zhaoming's angry voice rang out again, and the pain all over her body almost made her collapse.
"Investigate for me! We must find out who poisoned me!"
Yi Zong's face was gloomy, and he quickly stepped forward to comfort her, "Princess, don't worry, I will find out who poisoned you!"
He suddenly thought of something and shouted, "Come here! Call all the doctors in the city immediately!"
"Liu Xi, go to the barracks and call all the military doctors here!"
Liu Xi was standing outside. When he heard the order, he immediately obeyed and ran towards the defense camp. Because of his anxiety and fear, he fell several times. It was only when other servants came forward to support him that he could walk more steadily.
After giving all the instructions, Yi Zong prepared to leave to investigate the person who poisoned him. But just as he turned around, a pair of delicate hands suddenly grabbed his palms. The warmth and softness in his palms startled him.
He turned around and saw the face that had obsessed him for many years, full of unwillingness and helplessness. "Yi Zong, I don't want to die. I still have a lot of things to do. Please save me, save me!"
"A Zhao..."
