He is the only son of the Yuan family, so what's the use of being given a high official title? When a person dies, there is nothing.
What's more, in his current state, he can't even walk, so there's no point in going to the battlefield to kill the enemy?
Obviously, when Emperor Zhao saw Yuan Jinshen's situation, he was well aware of it. He said that he was the pillar of the country and if he would be needed to fight the enemy bravely in the future, it was just a polite statement.
Soon, Vice General Sun had finished drawing the portrait over there and presented it to Qi Jue.
Qi Jue immediately showed it to Yan Mingzhu. Yan Mingzhu only took one look, then shook his head and said: "The cover is too tight, only this pair of eyes can identify it, and this person is not the mastermind, most likely just an errand boy."
,
Trying to find this person in the vast sea of people is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the effect may not be good. Now that the Yuan family has restored the Marquis, I think the person behind the scenes will be restless. We can only
You have to wait patiently, he will show up on his own, and then he will catch the turtle in the urn."
Instead of struggling to find them one by one, it is better to wait for the other party to come to your door and sit back and wait for the work.
After all, the people behind the scenes set up such a big situation and were aiming to destroy the entire Yuan family. Now that the Yuan family has been cleared of their crimes and the marquis has been restored, the people behind the scenes must be furious.
I believe that soon, the other party will be unable to sit still and take action.
Qi Jue naturally understood Yan Mingzhu's intention, so he handed the portrait to Ji Jingxue and asked him to put it away. He might not be able to use it in the near future.
After settling the current major issues, Emperor Zhao began to worry about Qi Jue's physical condition.
"Liu Dequan, go and summon all the imperial doctors from the imperial hospital, as well as the main person in charge of that... or so-and-so sect. If you can't get the antidote and can't save Xiaojiu, then
Let their entire sect be buried with my son!"
Concubine Zhuang had already cried and her makeup was stained. She didn't care at all about what happened to Queen Pei. She only cared about how long her son could live.
"Jue'er, it's not good that my son is a concubine. If I hadn't given you the cup of Buddha that jumped over the wall, you wouldn't have been poisoned. It was me who harmed my son. Jue'er, don't be afraid. If anything happens to you,
Mom will never live alone!"
The matter has been resolved, Qi Jue no longer conceals anything, and comforts him: "Don't be anxious, mother and concubine, my children and ministers will be fine."
"It's okay. If you are still holding on in front of mother, the poison has almost spread to your heart. No matter what the cost, mother will save you!"
Seeing that Concubine Zhuang was too anxious to listen, Qi Jue had no choice but to unbutton his clothes again, revealing his fair and strong chest. Seeing the red line on his chest that was a palm away from his heart, Concubine Zhuang burst into tears.
It fell down with a clack.
"Concubine, this red line is fake. It was painted on it by order of my son."
Concubine Zhuang immediately stopped crying and tentatively reached out to touch it. However, the next second, the red thread was touched off by her!
Emperor Zhao also walked up quickly, "This... Xiaojiu, what on earth is going on?"
"Father, my son is guilty. In order to get Pei to justice, he told a little lie and pretended that he was poisoned and his time was short. Only in this way did Pei think that his plan was successful, relax and fall into the trap.
In the trap designed by my ministers in advance."
After hearing this, Emperor Zhao laughed and patted Qi Jue on the shoulder, "You kid, you have a lot of ideas since you were a child, but even if you want to deceive Mrs. Pei, you should fight with me and your mother and concubine in advance.
Good greetings, your mother-in-law is so frightened that her eyes are swollen from crying!"
But Concubine Zhuang was not as caring as Emperor Zhao. She caressed Qi Jue's face worriedly, "Jue'er, has the poison on your body really been cured? Since you have cured the poison and deceived Mr. Pei, what's wrong with your face?"
Is it still so ugly?”
Just as Qi Jue was about to say something, he suddenly felt a tickle in his throat. When he instinctively coughed, he actually vomited blood!
"Jue'er!"
Concubine Zhuang was so frightened that her hand just stopped at Qi Jue's lips, and she thought she was spitting out blood!
"Your Highness! Quick, call the imperial doctor!"
The originally quiet main hall fell into chaos again because of Qi Jue's sudden vomiting of blood and coma!
While others were rushing to announce the imperial doctor, Yan Mingzhu took Qi Jue's pulse with one hand, took out a silver needle with the other, and quickly inserted it into his chest.
"Yan Mingzhu, what are you going to do to my son!"
Concubine Zhuang immediately grabbed Yan Mingzhu's hand and prevented her from touching Qi Jue.
Yan Mingzhu said calmly and quickly: "Concubine Zhuang, the worm in your highness's body is about to wake up, and it must be forced out of your body immediately. You believe me, I am the only one in this world who can save your highness's life. I
Nothing will happen to him!"
Concubine Zhuang met Yan Mingzhu's clear eyes. This time, Concubine Zhuang did not throw away Yan Mingzhu's hand, but stared at her closely, "If anything happens to my son, I will also want you to be buried with him!"
Yan Mingzhu didn't talk nonsense to Concubine Zhuang and asked Feiyun and Feiyu to take Qi Jue to the inner hall first.
Emperor Zhao was quite worried when he saw that Concubine Zhuang had entrusted Qi Jue's life and death to Yan Mingzhu, "My dear concubine, this girl from the Yan family looks young. Even the people of the Seven Star Sect can't cure this poison. How could she do it?"
Solution? Should we wait until the imperial doctor arrives to diagnose and treat it?"
Before Concubine Zhuang could speak, Yuan Jinshen said first: "Your Majesty, Zhuzhu's medical skills are extremely good. After Weichen was rescued, his life was hanging by a thread. He only had one breath left. It was Zhuzhu who pulled Weichen from the hell gate.
Come back, otherwise the humble minister would not be alive today, and I am here to identify the traitor."
The sound of "Zhuzhu" made Emperor Zhao feel dazed for a moment, almost instinctively thinking that the other party was calling Mingzhu's name.
But he soon realized that the woman had been dead for seventeen years, and her body was still trapped by him... so it couldn't be her!
But immediately afterwards, Emperor Zhao remembered the storybook he had just read. Although he knew that Mingzhu could not live again, he still had suspicions in his heart.
"Yuan Aiqing, this cousin of yours has such excellent medical skills at a young age, but she has been learning medicine since she was a child? Who can she learn from?"
Although Yuan Jinshen didn't know why Emperor Zhao asked this question, he still answered truthfully: "In Wei Chen's memory, my cousin never learned medical skills when she was a child, but since the death of her aunt, the number of times my cousin came to the Hou Mansion has been much less.
, so Wei Chen is not sure who his cousin learned his medical skills from."
Emperor Zhao narrowed his eyes and waited to see if Yan Mingzhu could save Xiao Jiu's life this time. If she could detoxify, then this woman's identity must be thoroughly investigated!
If he was really involved with Mingzhu, he would not let her live past tomorrow, regardless of whether she was Mingzhu or not!
At this moment, in the inner hall, all the tools Yan Mingzhu needed were ready.
She washed her hands first, and then removed the silver needle from Qi Jue's chest that temporarily stabilized his mind.
At the same time, Qi Jue woke up and instinctively grabbed her wrist, "Zhuzhu..."
