Work overtime

Chapter 706

Liang Xiaobao secretly served Li Beichen back to the Qinzheng Palace, summoned Jiang Xian to treat the emperor, and at the same time urgently summoned Jiang Yu into the palace.

Jingyang Palace was quickly cleaned up, all the things in Concubine Xiao's room were packed up and disposed of, and all the windows were opened wide for ventilation, as if this person had never appeared here.

The guards then went to inform Qi Wanyi that Concubine Xiao had died of illness and her body had been rushed out of the palace.

Concubine Xiao coughed all night and coughed up blood. Qi Wanyi and Concubine Xie, who lived in the same palace, knew about it. They just thought it was a serious illness like tuberculosis, so they treated it this way. They didn't think much about it.

Soon, the news of Concubine Xiao's death was spread by Qi Wanyi.

After Jiang Xian found out the situation, he did not treat the emperor immediately.

Vomiting blood is definitely not a good sign. The poison attack of Concubine Yi and Concubine Xiao started with vomiting blood.

He had followed the method of medication that Jiang Yuebai had told him before and secretly used the antidote on Li Beichen. Between the life of a king and the life of a concubine, as a minister, he would definitely choose the former. This choice was difficult, but he made it very resolutely.

There are many prescriptions for curing poison in medical books. But wherever cold poison is mentioned, it is said that there is no medicine to cure it. I guess our ancestors must have tried all kinds of prescriptions.

But Jiang Xian still wanted to give it another try, and experimented with various antidote prescriptions on Imperial Concubine Yi and Imperial Concubine Xiao.

For example, there are folk remedies that say drinking more sesame oil to induce vomiting, black bean powder wine, and thickly fried pomegranate peels can detoxify all kinds of poison. However, the poison is not vomited out, but instead it causes vomiting of blood.

Ancient books record that the palace's famous detoxification medicine, Zixuedan, can also detoxify. After Jiang Xian tried it on Concubine Xiao, he found that it aggravated the attack. He speculated that it was because Zixuedan itself cleared away heat and detoxified, and its cold nature was strong. After taking it, the attack of cold poison was aggravated.

Therefore, these experiments can only determine which drugs are ineffective based on the reactions after taking the drugs, but cannot find out which drugs are effective, because both people died from acute attacks.

In addition, acupuncture and bloodletting are good methods for common diseases, but they are not effective for cold poisons.

These days, Jiang Xian was a little helpless. In the past few days, he looked through ancient books and found some new prescriptions for curing poison. Can they be used? Will they work? He was not sure.

We can only discuss and decide what to do next after my brother comes to the palace.

Jiang Xian thought for a moment and asked, "Eunuch Liang, does Concubine Ning know about this?"

"Not yet. What do you mean?" Liang Xiaobao asked cautiously.

Jiang Xian's face was solemn. "Master Yuan once said that Concubine Ning was a lucky star. Perhaps Your Majesty has a way to save the Emperor."

He also didn't know what solution Concubine Ning could come up with. Maybe she could take out an antidote like the Zixuedan like last time. Who knows.

"Listen to Master Jiang."

Liang Xiaobao immediately sent his trusted confidant Xiao Yinzi to Yonghe Palace to invite Concubine Ning.

Jiang Yuebai didn't sleep. She was checking information through the system.

After giving the prescription she got from the world of cultivation to Jiang Xian a few days ago, she has been evasive and deceiving herself.

She comforted herself that she had done her best anyway.

Anyway, all the ancient books about cold poison in this world say that there is no cure for this poison.

Anyway, this is a fictional world, and the prescription for detoxification may ignore medical common sense and be fabricated out of thin air by the weird imagination of the brainless author.

No matter how hard I try, I can't find the answer.

She has been thinking about it over and over again these days, and feels that she cannot just give up, quit trying, and stay out of it.

The Baili tribe wanted to take revenge on the entire royal family and the entire country. She could escape now, but as members of the royal family, she and her children would have to face it in the end.

The scenes of the Queen Mother's tragic death continued to stir in her mind. If she did nothing and let things go on, people in the palace, including Li Beichen, would die in agony like the Queen Mother.

She realized that she had a responsibility to fight for her children and for the country, and she could no longer evade it.

After thinking this through, Jiang Yuebai endured the strong discomfort and faced this vicious, cruel and desperate disease. He endured the nausea and vomiting again and again, resisted the urge to escape, and forced himself to persist in searching for prescriptions to cure the poison, and copied them down one by one.

She planned to collect them all and show them to Jiang Yu.

When Xiao Yinzi hurried over, Jiang Yuebai was sitting at the desk, writing a prescription under candlelight.

The moonlight was as bright as a silver thread, shining through the wooden window lattices and casting a bright light all over the ground.

An exquisite glass lamp emits a soft and warm light, enveloping the woman writing at her desk in a faint golden glow.

Her skin is as white as snow, her eyebrows and eyes are as picturesque as a painting, a few strands of black hair are scattered casually, and her expression is focused.

Such tranquility and peace infected Xiao Yinzi. He unconsciously slowed down his pace and knelt down slowly in front of Concubine Ning.

After Jiang Yuebai dismissed the attendants, she was shocked to learn from Xiao Yinzi that the emperor was vomiting blood and seriously ill. She didn't expect things to develop so quickly.

A drop of ink fell on the paper.

Could it be?

Did Jiang Xian give the antidote to Sister Yi?
She opened her eyes wide, her heart in pain. Both of them were very important to her.

Jiang Yuebai put down the brush in his hand, took a few deep breaths, gathered his thoughts, and calmly instructed Xiao Yinzi, "Go back and tell Lord Jiang that I will be there soon and have something for him."

"Yes." Xiao Yinzi came back to his senses, looked at Concubine Ning with admiration, and said respectfully, "It's dark outside, please be careful."

"I know." Jiang Yuebai smiled at Xiao Yinzi, "If the emperor wakes up, I will give this to him."

After saying that, he took out an exquisite envelope and handed it to Xiao Yinzi.

This time, when she was promoted to Imperial Concubine, the system rewarded her with a bunch of unexpected things, including a high-tech solar-powered motorcycle that didn't need to be charged, textbooks from elementary school to high school, required and optional readings, class exercises, mock exams, and a full set of three-year X exams and five-year mock exams.
When it comes to raising children, the system is 10,000 times more active than Jiang Yuebai.

However, there is no pill to cure the poison.

After Xiao Yinzi left, Jiang Yuebai copied the dirty prescription again. Then he simply styled his hair, put on a lilac long-sleeved jacket, and, with Liang Xiaobao's protection, took Lichun to the Qinzheng Palace.

Jiang Yu was still on his way from home, and only Jiang Xian, the imperial physician, was serving him.

Li Beichen had already woken up, and Jiang Xian served him some ginger and garlic water, but he didn't take anything else. He didn't continue to vomit blood, as if he was just angry.

After reading the letter that Jiang Yuebai sent her in advance, her originally depressed mood improved a lot.

Just because Jiang Yuebai wrote in the letter, "Jiuru: Believe in your own decision and don't have to explain it to anyone."

Just now, he ordered the cremation of Concubine Xiao and the palace maids to remove all traces of her. Although it was not the first time he gave the order to kill, he felt very uncomfortable this time.

Xiao Guiren's nobleness and bravery will never be known to the world. She is just a concubine who unfortunately died of illness.

Her ashes could not even be separated and had to be mixed together in a coffin and buried together in Jinshan.

And he had to do it.

After some consideration, Li Beichen ordered Liang Xiaobao, "Confer the title of Zhenpin (Zhen) on Consort Xiao posthumously, which means steadfast and faithful."

After closing his eyes and resting for a while, he suddenly remembered that Master Yuan Tianshi had been able to predict the future many times during the time of the previous emperor, and he was able to always turn misfortune into fortune.

I'm about to die, so the stars in the sky should have some reaction, right?
Yuan Tianshi is already a semi-immortal, could he have left behind some great tricks? Why didn't I think of it earlier?

A glimmer of hope suddenly emerged in my heart.

He immediately ordered Liang Xiaobao: "Send someone to invite the director of the Imperial Observatory over."
