Chapter 406 Discovery
In the dark night, a beautiful figure jumped down from the big banyan tree not far outside the Jingguo Palace and headed southwest.
"It's Cui Hengyue."
The spies lurking in the dark saw Cui Hengyue's face clearly through the moonlight and hurriedly followed him.
"Don't follow too closely."
Seeing his companion's footsteps getting faster and faster, the spy who first discovered Cui Hengyue's identity quickly stopped him: "The Duke of Jingguo's Mansion is heavily guarded. She can sneak out without being discovered by the guards of the Duke of Jingguo. She must be very vigilant."
powerful.
"Be careful of being discovered by her."
The companion thought this was reasonable and slowed down.
Although Cui Hengyue was cautious and observed whether she was being followed along the way, she never noticed it.
After entering Song's house, Cui Hengyue went straight to the room where Song Zhuoxing was.
The spies outside followed the outside of Song's house and saw Cui Hengyue entering with their own eyes. One of them immediately went back to report.
"ah--"
As soon as he walked into the courtyard, Cui Hengyue heard an indescribable scream and immediately quickened his pace.
Qingzhu, who was guarding the door, saw it and walked into the room quickly: "Sanlang, Miss Cui is here."
"Hurry..." Song Zhuoxing was a little excited. He clutched the quilt under him tightly and held back the pain: "Stop... her... don't...
.Let her...come in..."
He couldn't let her see him like he was now.
Runzhu and Qingzhu have followed Song Zhuoxing since childhood, how could they not understand his intentions?
The two looked at each other, Runzhu stood up and said, "I'll go."
He once lived in Yunxuan Temple and at least has some friendship with Cui Hengyue, so he should be able to stop her.
Runzhu rushed out and closed the door.
Cui Hengyue was already in front of her, and she stretched out her hand to push the door open: "Is Song Xiaolangjun suffering from poison?"
In desperation, Runzhu forgot about etiquette, grabbed Cui Hengyue's hand to push the door, pushed it out, and then blocked the door with his body:
"Miss Cui, I'm sorry, you can't go in now."
"Why?" Cui Hengyue asked doubtfully.
Runzhu paused, "Sanlang... doesn't want to see you."
"puff--"
Song Zhuoxing in the room vomited another mouthful of blood. He immediately reached out and covered his mouth to prevent himself from making any sound.
Cui Hengyue seemed to sense something and glanced at the door, thinking that Song Zhuoxing could do such a stupid thing as sacrificing his life for her safety, how could he not want to see her?
Unless he is now suffering from poison and is in great pain and doesn't want her to see him.
If that's the case, then she should let him feel at ease.
Cui Hengyue gave up the idea of going in and took out a medicine bottle and handed it over: "This is the poison-removing pill that Zhen Jiu gave me. Zhen Jiu said that it is his Zhen family's unique secret recipe. It is different from other poison-removing pills and can cure all kinds of poisons."
.
"You can give it to Mr. Song Xiaolang to try. It may be useful."
Runzhu took the medicine bottle dubiously, and before going in, he did not forget to warn Cui Hengyue: "Don't come in."
"Don't worry, I won't go in, you go quickly." Cui Hengyue urged him.
The moment the door opened, although Cui Hengyue did not go in, she craned her neck to look inside.
However, she saw nothing and the door was closed.
"Sanlang, this is..."
"I heard..."
Before Runzhu finished speaking, Song Zhuoxing snatched the medicine bottle from his hand.
Just as he was about to put the poison-reducing pill into his mouth, Qingzhu suddenly grabbed Song Zhuoxing's hand holding the medicine: "Sanlang, let's ask Mr. Sun to take a look, in case this medicine conflicts with the poison in your body...
"
Upon hearing this, Runzhu quickly snatched the medicine from Song Zhuoxing's hand, "I'll call Sun Gong over."
Before he finished speaking, he rushed out of the room.
Seeing Runzhu rushing out in a hurry, Cui Hengyue thought there was something wrong with the medicine, so she pushed the door open and wanted to go in.
Unexpectedly, Qingzhu suddenly appeared in front of the door and stopped Cui Hengyue: "Ms. Cui, you'd better wait outside. If it's cold outside, you can go to the next room and I'll have someone send you a brazier."
"Is there something wrong with the medicine? How is Song Xiaolangjun?" Cui Hengyue was so anxious that she looked inside frequently.
Qingzhu didn't hide anything. After giving her reasons, she blocked the door and refused to let her in.
"Didn't I tell you that Saburo would call me immediately when he woke up? Why did he come to me when he was already poisoned?" Doctor Sun rushed over casually wearing his coat and carrying a medicine box.
He lived in this courtyard, so he rushed over quickly.
Runzhu explained while rushing forward: "Sanlang woke up when he was poisoned. I was going to find you at that time, but Miss Cui came..."
When his eyes touched Cui Hengyue's figure, Runzhu's words stopped abruptly.
The two of them have arrived at the door.
"Miss Cui."
Doctor Sun hesitated for a moment, then said hello to Cui Hengyue, and then entered the room.
This time, Qingzhu was guarding the door, and Cui Hengyue was still outside.
After Runzhu entered, he closed the door.
"Don't move."
Seeing Song Zhuoxing about to get out of bed, Dr. Sun rushed up to stop him and touched his wrist vein.
After checking his pulse, he asked again: "Where is the poison-resolving pill?"
Runzhu immediately took out the poison pill and handed it over.
Doctor Sun took a sniff and said: "Although it is not as good as the antidote, it can suppress the poison in Saburo's body and relieve his pain. Give it to him."
After hearing this, Runzhu dared to give Song Zhuoxing the poison pill.
"This medicine is strange. Most people wouldn't think of it. I wonder where Miss Cui got the medicine?" Seeing that Song Zhuoxing felt much better after taking the medicine, Doctor Sun asked about the origin.
Before Song Zhuoxing could answer, Runzhu rushed to say, "It was prepared by a doctor from Yunxuan Temple. He calls himself a miracle doctor."
"What's his name?" Doctor Sun asked.
"We only know that his surname is Zhen, he is the ninth, and he is not much older than Sanlang."
Not very old?
Doctor Sun pondered this in his mind.
There was suddenly no movement in the room, and Cui Hengyue shouted anxiously: "How is it? Is the medicine useful?"
Runzhu looked at Song Zhuoxing: "Sanlang, do you want to see Miss Cui? I think she seems very worried."
Song Zhuoxing hesitated for a moment, then ordered: "Help me change my clothes."
So, after a lot of work, Runzhu opened the door: "Miss Cui, please come in."
Cui Hengyue walked in quickly and ran straight to the inner room. When she saw Song Zhuoxing sitting by the window and smiling at her, she was stunned for a moment.
He looked... just a little weaker.
But soon, Cui Hengyue realized that this was an illusion deliberately created by Song Zhuoxing. He didn't want her to worry.
So, Cui Hengyue smiled cooperatively: "It seems that you are much better after taking medicine."
The smile on Song Zhuoxing's face deepened: "Yes, Zhen Jiu is indeed a miracle doctor. After taking his medicine, I feel that the poison has been cured."
"That's not the antidote." Cui Hengyue's smile gradually disappeared.
"I know, but I feel a lot more comfortable now and don't feel any pain anymore." Song Zhuoxing spoke softly and pointed to the opposite side: "Sit down, I want to know how the Princess Regent was injured."
Cui Hengyue then sat down and talked to him softly about the situation at that time.
After listening, Song Zhuoxing's expression was solemn: "I think the assassin must be here for you. Could it be that the things you have been investigating recently have harmed the assassin's interests?"
Cui Hengyue was stunned.
His guess seemed to make sense.
Could it be...Cui Quan?
No, it's impossible. If Cui Quan wanted to kill her, it would be more convenient to do it in the palace, so how could he choose to kill her outside?
Wang family?
No, it was impossible. Even if the Wang family hated her mother, they would not have any thoughts of killing her.
