Chapter 120 Urgent Recall to the Palace
After Jiang Youzhi heard this, he shook his head and continued: "It is absolutely impossible to be an anesthetic."

Seeing Jian Shizhe's puzzled face, Jiang Youzhi said again: "If the red coral is a kind of anesthetic, then the deceased will also fall into a faint after taking it this time, so how could he run away all the way, even rolled off the carriage, Desperately hid the wordless book in the trunk of a dead tree."

"That's right!" Jian Shizhe suddenly realized: "But... But this red coral fragment can't be explained?"

Jiang Youzhi sighed, this matter made her feel dizzy, and now even the only reasonable explanation has been overturned, the case is indeed complicated and confusing.

Suddenly, a guard came in and said, "See Mr. Pei, the emperor told you that you will enter the palace early tomorrow morning."

After the guards left, Jiang Youzhi was puzzled and said: "Why did the emperor send you into the palace in such a hurry? Didn't he just send you to Jiangzhou to investigate the case?"

Pei Xun shook his head: "I don't know."

But he felt a little uneasy in his heart, yesterday the poinsettia was rushed into the palace, and today it is himself again, maybe something bad happened in the palace.

Because it would take some time to return to Beijing, Pei Xun prepared to leave immediately in order to arrive in time for the court.

Before setting off, he said to Jiang Youzhi: "You stay here, don't mess around in anything, let alone act rashly, wait for me to come back."

Jiang Youzhi smiled and said, "Okay."

Then, he said to Ah Chang: "A Chang, you stay here."

Ah Chang replied, "Yes."

In the early morning of the second day, Emperor Wen of Zhou, who had not slept all night, dragged his tired body and was served by maids to change his clothes and prepare to go to court.

But when he walked to the screen, he was in a trance, accidentally, staggered, almost fell, and the maid at the side quickly supported him.

He was a little annoyed and said, "What are they all for?"

After he stood still, he took a closer look and found that there was an unknown small object on the ground that almost tripped him. He bent down to pick it up curiously, and when he saw the object in his hand, he was terrified and opened his eyes eyes.

While gasping for breath, he shouted, "This... who brought this!"

Then she looked at the maid who had been serving her all the time, and suddenly slapped her, and the thin girl fell to the ground immediately.

His furious voice resounded throughout the palace: "Is it! Is it you! Somebody come and take this villain down for me, drag him out and beat him to death!"

The little palace maid had been frightened out of her head for a long time, and when the two of them crossed their arms and dragged them out, they just cried out their grievances indistinctly.

But Emperor Wen of Zhou was still furious and said: "Evil thief! I will smash your corpse into thousands of pieces! Five cents..."

But in the next second, because he was too excited, his body suddenly fell back, and then passed out.

In an instant, the entire hall was in chaos, and Eunuch Gao hurriedly said, "Please call the imperial physician!"

Then, as if he remembered something, he said to another little eunuch: "That's right! There is also Grandmaster Poinsettia, go and invite him!"

At the same time, above the Tai Chi Hall, all the ministers stood ready to go to the court, but seeing that the time for the court had passed, but there was no sign of the emperor, the ministers inevitably talked a lot.

The matter of the emperor's illness yesterday was already buzzing, Yao Zuofeng couldn't help but said to Su Qi'an: "What's going on, the emperor missed the time to go to court, this is the first time."

Su Qi'an said, "I'm afraid this week will change."

Suddenly, a little eunuch rushed to the main hall in a hurry, the eagerness in his voice could not be concealed: "The emperor announces that Poinsettia Grandmaster will enter the Qianqing Palace."

After the poinsettia left, the discussions among the officials became more and more intense. Jing Huanyao couldn't help but said to Pei Xun: "Brother, what's going on! Why was the master called away again? The people from the Qianqing Palace came to pass the message yesterday , said that the emperor is out of danger, why does it seem that the situation is not good today, and why did the emperor summon you to Beijing for no reason today, is there really something big going to happen?"

Pei Xun thought for a moment and said: "Be safe and don't be impatient, the emperor is always in good health, this matter may be very strange."

Jing Huanyao nodded, and didn't say anything more.

After waiting for a while, a eunuch came and said that today's morning court was cancelled, and the officials were asked to disperse first.

Jing Huanyao said to Pei Xun, "Brother, what are you going to do?"

Pei Xun said: "Stay in Beijing first. The emperor announced that I will go to Beijing. There must be something important. If I go back to Jiangzhou now, when he wakes up and summons me, he finds that I am not there. I am afraid it will be disadvantageous. I will stay here for the time being." Wait in the palace."

Clean up the hall.

As soon as Poinsettia arrived, he found the fainting emperor. Imperial Physician Lu had already treated him, so he said to Imperial Physician Lu, "Doctor Lu, how is the emperor doing?"

Imperial Physician Lu just put away the silver needle: "Back to Grandmaster, your life is safe, but the situation...is not optimistic..."

When Poinsettia heard about it, it immediately took the emperor's pulse, and said again: "Did the emperor drink anything this morning?"

Eunuch Gao said, "Not yet."

Poinsettia said: "Did you cook the medicine according to my prescription yesterday?"

"Have."

Poinsettia said: "Bring the medicine quickly, and give it to the emperor."

After the emperor took the medicine, Poinsettia said to Eunuch Gao again: "Eunuch, I don't know what soup the emperor drank before going to bed last night."

Eunuch Gao said: "The emperor hasn't slept well recently, and he always drinks a bowl of soothing soup before going to bed at night."

Poinsettia said: "What soup, do you still have the bowl?"

Eunuch Gao shook his head: "The emperor finished drinking last night, and the maid took the bowl out."

"Where's the prescription?"

When Eunuch Gao heard this, he immediately said to the little eunuch behind him, "Go get the prescription."

Suddenly, the poinsettia caught sight of an object next to the bed from the corner of his eye, and he picked it up subconsciously, but when he saw it clearly, he was suddenly startled.

He snapped: "Where did this thing come from!"

Eunuch Gao immediately said: "At that time, the old servant rushed over when he heard the sound, and found that the emperor was holding such a thing in his hand."

Poinsettia said again: "Then what about the maid who is serving the emperor today? Ask her to come forward and talk back."

Eunuch Gao was a bit embarrassed: "The emperor was furious at that time, and immediately asked someone to drag the maid down, and even sentenced her to death."

After hearing this, Poinsettia stood up anxiously: "Where are people now? Hurry up and stop them, bring them here, hurry up!"

A little eunuch ran out in a hurry, but fortunately, he arrived in time. If he was a little later, the little palace maid might be killed.

When the little maid was brought into the palace, Poinsettia asked, "What's going on today? Tell me the truth."

The little palace maid wiped her tears, and said: "This morning, the servant girl was waiting for the emperor to change clothes, and it was at the screen, but when the emperor walked there, he tripped over something, and when the emperor picked it up, he found out It is the token in your hand now."
