I want to be a good minister

Chapter 8

Cen Xi had to go through a complicated psychological struggle to speak out at this time. This was not a good time to speak, it could even be said to be the worst time, and as long as the words he said could not attract the attention of others, he had to do what he said next. The torture will be even more brutal.

Cen Xi didn't want to go straight to the execution without interrogation, so he had to bite the bullet and speak.Because at this time, the system was about to die, and it just so happened that a task popped up.

Ding Dong——The ruler of the country is poisoned, please seek medical treatment immediately, do you accept the mission?

Mission Reward: Skyline Water-proof Helmet*1: Skyline Water-proof Helmet, the holder can breathe freely in the sea, and its durability is 10.

When Cen Xi saw the task reward, the cursing in his heart stopped completely. On this sea, having such a water-proof helmet is a must-have product for home travel. You can have this.

Cen Xi accepted it without thinking, but the next moment he was embarrassed again, she is not a doctor, how would she know how to detoxify?

"Bring it up—" Yuan Zhen gave a look, and the guards pushed the rest down, and the only one left in the hall was Cen Xi.

"Say, who instigated it?" Immediately, the cold blade touched Cen Xi's neck.

"No one ordered it, so it's the food used by His Highness?" Although the food had been turned over, Cen Xi still saw at a glance just now that the food had already been used.

No one answered, Cen Xi could only accept it as acquiescence.

"It should be that the fish you eat is poisonous. See if there are red algae leaves in the gills of the fish." Cen Xi continued, "I'm afraid that anyone who eats this fish will be poisoned. There are still many such fish in the kitchen cabin. .”

Cen Xi wasn't sure, the warship also encountered red algae that day, because of the abnormal sea temperature, the shallow sea algae quickly multiplied, and these red algae were rarely poisonous algae, so Cen Xi was not completely sure.

Everyone was silent, Su Chi gave a look, and someone immediately brought a live fish from the kitchen cabin.

"These fish are still alive." The guard said immediately, obviously not convinced by the poisonous statement.

"Take a look at the gills and belly of the fish—" Cen Xi glanced at the dying fish on the ground. Although the fish was small, it had a round belly, and it seemed that it had eaten a lot.

The guard was taken aback, and after receiving the order from the adults, he cut open the fish's stomach, and it was indeed full of bright red red algae, and the fish's gills were also mixed with finely divided leaves of the red algae.

"The flood of red algae forms a red tide, and these are all poisonous." When Ri Cenxi was in the kitchen, he saw these cooks dissected and did not remove their gills. Dr. Ying once said that if you encounter poisonous red algae, the toxicity is very high , so when I first saw those fish, I always felt something was wrong.

Everyone glanced at each other, but Ge Lao's expression changed, as if he remembered something.

"Teacher, this red tide is probably the word red tide in ancient books." Master Shu said, looking at Cen Xi who was on the ground in deep thought. He rarely saw a woman in such a situation who could speak so cleverly. A sentence, half a sentence did not defend himself, but it made everyone shift their targets immediately.

"How did you know?" In the sea area of ​​Beichang, this kind of red tide is very rare, even in Sitian Academy, there are very few people who know about it.

"Minnv grew up by the sea since she was a child, and she likes to hear fresh stories from fishermen, so she kept it in her heart. The poison of red algae is not difficult to cure—" Cen Xi bowed his head, before he finished speaking, he just listened Hearing this, the imperial doctor stepped forward impatiently.

"Do you know how to solve it?" Cen Xi was stunned, the poison of red algae is not a serious poison, but if it is a serious poison, these imperial doctors have countermeasures, but it is the red algae that has never been heard of Because of the poison, he dared not do anything, but now there is another person who knows the solution, so naturally he can't ask for it.

Cen Xi raised his head, seemingly hesitating a bit, but this opportunity is indeed extremely rare, to be close to the king, this is an excellent opportunity, and all the ministers looked at him in unison.

Thinking about the task rewards in the system, Cen Xi gritted his teeth and fought hard.

"Minister is willing to give it a try." The imperial doctor nodded immediately when he heard this, but the two guards of the crown prince hesitated.

"How can a daughter from a fishing village whose origin is unknown be allowed to be healed by His Royal Highness—" Someone suddenly disagreed.

"My lady of the Cen family, there are several guards who were also poisoned. Why don't you detoxify them first, and then it will not be too late to treat His Royal Highness." Yuan Zhen, the head of the imperial guards, said, and everyone nodded. This is indeed a safe move. way.

"My lord, I'm afraid that time does not allow it. The longer the Crown Prince delays, the more dangerous it will be, and the more uncertain the women will be." Cen Xi said, when he was studying the red tide that day, he had mentioned the solution. The solution is only effective in the early stage of poisoning, and in the middle and late stages, even in modern times, there is no special antidote.

The two brothers Yuan Zhen and Yuan Xu glanced at the imperial doctor, who nodded his head, expressing that what Cen Xi said was true, he finally nodded.

"It's better to bring those poisoned guards here together, and ask the wife of the Cen family to treat them together."

Several poisoned guards were also moved into the cabin, and Cen Xi was brought into the sleeping hall. He saw the man on the exquisite bed in a moon-white tunic. For the first time, Cen Xi saw the man clearly. The man who used to sit on the high seat.

The man's complexion was pale, his skin was as thin as a cicada's wing, delicate and solid, his nose was straight, and his long eyelashes were as wet as a butterfly's wings.

Cen Xi sighed in his heart, it really wasn't everyone who could be the superior ruler recommended by the system.

That impressive voice can probably only be matched by this appearance.

Cen Xi opened the man's eyelids, the inside of the eyelids was red, and he fell into a coma. He didn't have breathing difficulties, fever and rashes, etc. He was relieved immediately. Fortunately, the poisoning was in the early stage.

In the early stage of poisoning, you can induce vomiting or gastric lavage to detoxify, but when Cen Xi looked at the handsome face on the bed, he saved people with this method, and I am afraid that he will not be officially regarded as the lord of the country. I'm done offending.

"Miss Cen, what should I do now?" Seeing that Cen Xi was not moving, the imperial doctor was a little anxious, Cen Xi sighed, and asked the imperial doctor beside him how to induce vomiting by gastric lavage in the fastest way.

The imperial doctor was stunned for a moment, and immediately figured it out, and quickly brought enough warm water. Everyone could only hear the commotion behind the bedroom, and the imperial doctor moved quickly, so they had to wait patiently.

"Ouch—" Several guards who were carried outside the dormitory, those with milder symptoms, had already started to vomit. , The consciousness of those guards began to slowly recover.

And the man and woman on the bed showed no mercy at all.After several times, the guards quickly changed the dirty wooden basin back and forth, and the imperial doctor was stunned. Such a treatment method was unheard of: Prince, the prince has always been obsessed with cleanliness and doesn't like to be close to strangers. It is necessary to conceal each other.

Now being held by an arm by a strange woman, with a curly figure, the minds of the imperial doctors are blank, I am afraid that only the woman in front of them dares to act so boldly.

However, His Royal Highness's pulse really began to slowly stabilize.

After a lot of tossing, His Highness the Crown Prince's cheeks gradually turned a blush, and his breath was slightly panting, showing a state of mental struggle and breath.

"My lady of the Cen family, His Royal Highness's pulse has stabilized, is it okay?" The imperial doctor, who has always been known as a ruthless one, couldn't bear it at this time, and asked quietly.

"It's almost there." Cen Xi said, hesitated, and reached out to pinch the man's chin, trying to see if his throat was swollen, but he didn't want the person on the bed to wake up after a lot of tossing.

His eyes were weak but he saw a blurry figure, his wet red eyes were slightly wrinkled, he reached out and grabbed Cen Xi's outstretched wrist in vain, his eyes slanted and his strength fluttered, but he woke up completely.
