Chapter 36: Rumors Abound
After hearing the emperor's words, Doctor Wang's face suddenly turned extremely pale, and it took him a long time to utter a few words with his trembling lips: "Your Majesty, I just think that this poison should be related to the princess."
"Mr. Wang, are you doubting my judgment? Or do you suspect that I am protecting the princess? I was the one who called Lord Sheng here. As for the princess, she just followed her grandfather." The emperor said indifferently.
rang out, with a hint of majesty in his tone.
As soon as Dr. Wang heard the emperor's words, he immediately understood that he had made a mistake. He hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I was confused. Please forgive me."
The emperor glanced at Imperial Physician Wang lightly, and then handed the memorial in his hand to the guard beside him. The guard took the memorial and retreated.
Doctor Wang couldn't help frowning when he saw the emperor's actions. He knew that what he just said had angered the emperor.
The emperor's eyes fell on Imperial Physician Wang, and he slowly said: "Physician Wang, do you think the princess is too weak?"
Doctor Wang's eyes widened suddenly. He did not expect that the emperor would say it so straightforwardly.
"Your Majesty is so wise and powerful, how could you misjudge a little girl?" Doctor Wang immediately flattered her.
The emperor smiled with satisfaction, and then continued: "You just said that this matter has something to do with the princess, so do you have conclusive evidence? How did you know about it?"
Doctor Wang looked at the emperor, his face instantly turned pale, a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his heart beat faster and faster.
"My lord, my lord..." Doctor Wang stuttered and was speechless.
The emperor snorted softly, and then said: "Do you still want to say that Lord Sheng is behind it, so the princess can quickly detoxify?"
The emperor's words made Dr. Wang tremble violently, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
"Mr. Wang, are you not convinced?" The emperor looked at Dr. Wang with a sarcastic smile: "I don't mean to blame you, and you don't have to be afraid. If you don't believe in the princess's medical skills, why not
Do you want to have a competition?"
Doctor Wang trembled when he heard this. He did not expect that the emperor would make such a suggestion, but he did not want to refuse. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded and said: "Yes, I obey my order."
"Very good." The emperor nodded with satisfaction and then said: "Since Dr. Wang agrees to the competition, go down and prepare."
"I accept the order and leave!" Doctor Wang bowed and retreated.
After Doctor Wang left the royal study, Eunuch Cui walked in from the outside. He bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty, do you really want the princess to compete with Doctor Wang? Is it too dangerous to do so? Princess or
A child? What if she gets hurt? "
After hearing what Eunuch Cui said, the emperor shook his head and said indifferently: "I know she is a child, but I also know her strength. I believe she will not lose."
"However, if Dr. Wang wins, it will have an impact on the princess." Cui Eunuch said with some worry.
"I believe her!"
The emperor made the final decision, and then he stood up: "Zhiyao is my conferred Princess Yongchen, and will also be the queen of Shang Zhou Dynasty in the future. How can she convince the public if she has no ability? What's more, how can she intimidate those people when we are gone?"
Xiaoxiao, if she can't even deal with Dr. Wang, how can she help Chen'er in the future?"
"But Your Majesty, the princess is still young after all! She doesn't know how to govern the country. If the Qi family has murderous intentions towards her, what should they do?" Eunuch Cui said still worriedly.
"Don't worry. Although the Qi family is ambitious, they don't dare to mess around. After all, the day I don't establish a prince, the Qi family won't dare to mess around. Otherwise, I will kill them by surprise."
"Yes, I will obey the imperial edict." Cui Eunuch said respectfully.
"Okay, let's go down." The emperor waved his hand, indicating that Eunuch Cui could go down.
Eunuch Cui nodded and immediately retreated. As soon as he walked out of the imperial study, a guard came to report.
"Your Majesty, the princess wishes to see you."
Hearing what the guard said, the emperor was stunned, then laughed, and said, "Okay, let the princess come in."
"yes."
After a while, Sheng Zhiyao walked in. She saw the emperor sitting on the dragon throne, and then she respectfully blessed her body and said, "Zhiyao, let me see you, Grandpa Huang."
The emperor raised his hand and said, "No need to be polite, come here."
When Sheng Zhiyao heard this, she stepped to the emperor's side. The emperor's eyes fell on Sheng Zhiyao: "Why do you want to come to the Imperial Study Room to find Grandpa Huang? But something is wrong?"
"Grandpa Huang, I heard some rumors that I was the one who poisoned Grandma Huang, that's why I was able to come up with the antidote so quickly." Sheng Zhiyao said straight to the point.
The emperor looked at Sheng Zhiyao's appearance and couldn't help laughing and said: "Haha, this rumor is really unpalatable. Who is so bold and dares to slander Zhiyao's good reputation? The emperor will never spare him."
Sheng Zhiyao quickly persuaded: "Grandpa Huang, calm down, rumors stop with the wise. Grandpa Huang, I want to prove my innocence."
"Oh? What do you say?" The emperor looked at Sheng Zhiyao with interest. He wanted to hear how Sheng Zhiyao could prove his innocence.
Sheng Zhiyao glanced at the maids and guards around her, and all of them were sent away by her. Then she leaned close to the emperor's ear and whispered: "Grandpa Huang, this matter still needs Grandpa Huang's cooperation."
The emperor frowned slightly and asked, "Oh? Then how do you want me to cooperate?"
"Grandpa Huang, do you know where the toxins in Grandma Huang's body come from?"
The emperor shook his head. He only knew that the queen's poison was given by someone else, but he didn't know what kind of poison it was.
"This is the crux of the problem. One of the poisons used in the poison in the Queen's body is Tianluo grass, which is an extremely rare poisonous weed. This poisonous weed lives in an extremely cold environment for many years.
It lives in extremely cold places, and this kind of grass has a very short growth time and is extremely rare, but every plant is extremely precious. After taking this toxin, it will produce a violent reaction, causing people to fall into a coma, and
During a coma, a person will die quickly."
After Sheng Zhiyao finished speaking, the emperor opened his eyes in shock.
"Zhiyao, do you think this grass is so poisonous?" the emperor couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Yes." Sheng Zhiyao nodded.
The emperor's face was solemn. This was indeed the first time he had heard of this kind of grass.
"Zhiyao, how do you know this kind of grass?" the emperor asked with some confusion.
"Grandpa Huang, have you forgotten? I learned my medical skills from Grandpa."
"Indeed, your grandfather's medical skills are indeed superb." The emperor remembered that Sheng Lixin's medical skills were indeed very powerful.
"The poison not only contains the extremely rare medicinal material Tianluocao, but also is mixed with Tianxuancao, geocentric grass, golden crow flower and many other rare medicinal materials. Moreover, the people who made the medicine used different amounts of medicinal materials and specific orders to make them.
Yes, but these medicinal materials are not something ordinary people can find."
After hearing this, the emperor was silent for a long time, and then sighed: "It seems that this matter is not simple."
"Yes, although the imperial doctor at the imperial hospital cannot make an antidote immediately, he should know how to control this toxicity. Therefore, the purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes is to lure out grandpa, and his goal is to frame the blame on grandpa. Who has
