Eunuch Xu glanced at Ji Yannuo and hurriedly led Gu Yelan out.
The King of Chu took a few bites of rice and said, "Brother, the prince, brother, please come over and take a look."
After saying this, he picked up his feet and walked away.
Ye Fuxun: "Your Highness, why don't we go and see it together?"
"No need."
Ji Yannuo picked up the chopsticks again and served Ye Fuxun the dishes, "Ah Xun will eat first."
"Can……"
"There are doctors in the army. The reason why soldiers vomit after eating is nothing more than the food. As long as symptomatic treatment is given, it should be relieved quickly."
Moreover, the King of Chu had already come to express condolences. Their words did not help except making the soldiers nervous.
It is better to wait here for the latest news before making a decision.
Ye Fuxun nodded and continued to eat obediently.
After the two of them finished their meal, they saw Eunuch Xu rushing back to report the situation.
"The cook saw a lot of fresh mushrooms growing in the nearby woods and picked them to make mushroom soup for the soldiers."
He explained, "The soldiers said the mushroom soup was delicious, and everyone drank a lot. Not long after drinking it, they all started vomiting."
"Dr. Gu and Dr. Lu have already prescribed the medicine, saying that you will be well after taking the medicine."
The meals in their tent are provided by chefs specially brought from the Prince's Mansion. The ingredients used are all carefully selected, and it is impossible to use ingredients from outside casually, so there will be no such problem with the meals.
"How many soldiers were poisoned by mushrooms?" Ye Fuxun asked.
Eunuch Xu hurriedly responded: "Go back to your Majesty, there are dozens of people around you."
Ji Yannuo frowned: "Give me the order to prepare medicine for the vomiting soldiers as soon as possible. Don't delay your trip."
"yes."
When he got up the next day, Ye Fuxun had just finished washing up when he saw Ji Yannuo opening the curtain and entering the tent with an angry look on his face.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?"
Ji Yannuo took a breath and said in a deep voice: "Most of the soldiers who were poisoned last night have not yet received treatment, and I am afraid they will not be able to set off today."
"How could this be so?" Ye Fuxun was puzzled, "Didn't you say that the right medicine has been prescribed?"
"The prescription is indeed symptomatic," Ji Yannuo said, "but two of the medicinal materials in the prescription are relatively precious. There are only a small amount in the army's medicinal material library, which is not enough for so many soldiers."
"We are now sending people to nearby counties to purchase medicinal materials, but we are not sure yet whether they can be purchased."
Ye Fuxun nodded in understanding, and she immediately said: "Your Highness, can you take me to see where the mushroom that poisoned the soldiers grows? Maybe I can find an antidote."
"The remaining soldiers have not yet received medical treatment, and many have developed severe symptoms such as fever."
"Last night, Dr. Lu and Dr. Gu stayed up all night to take care of the patients. They administered acupuncture one after another and saved several soldiers who almost couldn't survive."
Ji Yannuo frowned: "It's so serious, why didn't anyone notify me?"
King Chu scratched his head. He only learned about the situation when he came early in the morning.
"Last night, I sent people to nearby counties to buy medicinal materials, but when they came back, they said they couldn't buy those two precious medicinal materials. They have already gone to counties further away to look for medicine."
"No need to go to such trouble."
Ji Yannuo glanced at Ye Fuxun and signaled Eunuch Xu to pass the basket in his hand to the King of Chu, "Let someone boil these herbs into a soup and give it to all the poisoned soldiers. It should be able to detoxify."
When the King of Chu heard this, he hurriedly called for people to come over and make the decoction.
At this time, Gu Yelan also walked out.
She looked at her face with a tired face, and her eyes were slightly green: "Your Highness, what kind of herbs did you bring?"
Ji Yannuo put his hands behind his back and accurately recited what Ye Fuxun said in the forest before: "Usually poisons are accompanied by detoxification products. I took people to the forest to investigate and found the detoxification herbs for poisonous mushrooms.
."
Gu Yelan nodded: "What His Highness said is absolutely true. It's just that poisonous mushrooms grow in the forest. The forest is full of various plants. It is not easy to distinguish the antidote herbs. I wonder how Your Highness can distinguish them?"
"I happened to have seen a description of this poisonous mushroom and detoxifying herb in a book." Ji Yannuo replied seriously.
"I wonder what book Your Highness is reading? Can you lend it to Yelan to read?" Gu Yelan's eyes shone with curiosity and surprise.
Ji Yannuo coughed lightly: "I just read it in a miscellaneous book. I don't remember which book it is."
Ye Fuxun:......
If Demon Ji so naturally used her lies to cover up, could he have already discovered that she was just making up nonsense before?
Just, a little guilty.
Gu Yelan sighed regretfully.
Not long after, someone came to report: "Your Highness, several soldiers took the soup made from herbal medicine, and their symptoms have been relieved. They seem to be well."
Everyone was happy.
Then the person who reported the report hesitated and said: "It's just that the herbs are not enough anymore. Should we arrange for someone to go into the forest to pick more and bring them back?"
Ji Yannuo waved his hand: "No need. There are several herbs in the forest that look similar, and there will be risks if you pick the wrong ones. Tao Qi and Tao Lin know this herb, and have arranged for them to pick it in large quantities. They should be back soon.
."
Gu Yelan's face was filled with joy: "Your Highness, Yelan went in to see the condition of the soldiers who had taken the herbal medicine."
With the antidote herbs that Ye Fuxun found, after half a morning, all the poisoned soldiers were relieved of their symptoms.
I originally thought that the trip would be delayed for a whole day, but I could start again after lunch.
Just when everyone was packing up their tents and getting ready to set off, King Chu Longxing strode over and said, "Brother Prince, guess who is here?"
Ji Yannuo raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "Who is here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a group of people walking over.
The leader was none other than King Qin.
"Prince, brother," King Qin approached with a slight smile, "Yu has received your father's permission to go to the border of Yan and Qi with you to fight."
King Chu laughed loudly, stepped forward and patted King Qin on the shoulder: "You guys always love to hide in peace, why are you thinking of going to war with us?
Fighting is not a matter of romance. If you are not careful, you will be stabbed or hit by an arrow. It is not as simple as a hunting competition."
King Qin still smiled like a spring breeze: "This has been my father's heart for many years. As a son, I should naturally do my part. Brother, please don't laugh at your younger brother."
"You are willing to go on an expedition, which is something you only dream of. How could the emperor laugh at you!" King Chu happily slapped King Qin on the shoulder, "Let's go, we are about to break camp. Brother Huang and you will go for a horse race.
!”
Set off.
Ye Fuxun held the manual in his hand and asked Ji Yannuo: "Your Highness, I remember you said that the emperor originally wanted you and the King of Chu to go on an expedition. Why did you send the King of Qin now?"
Ji Yannuo put down the official document in his hand and raised his eyebrows slightly: "It was not the emperor who sent King Qin here. It should be Concubine Xue who went to ask for the holy will. That's why the emperor agreed to let King Qin catch up and set off with the army."
