Ye Youlan's daily life of traveling through time

Chapter 162 Poisoning

The two went to the river again, where people were selling wishing lanterns. Ye Youlan smiled and asked the Seventh Prince if he wanted to make another wish.

"One should not be too greedy."

Ye Youlan bought a lantern, wrote a few words on it, and placed it in the river. Then, she clapped her hands and told the Seventh Prince, "Only when we have beautiful thoughts in our hearts can we have strength. Wishes are like the stars in the sky, filling the sky. As long as one of them becomes a reality, we will have the courage to move forward."

The Seventh Prince held her hand, his lips curled up slightly: "You are my husband."

"Learn from each other."

The two walked hand in hand along the river bank. In the distance, there were dim lights on the boats and the sound of singing girls.

At this time, a little girl of five or six years old came over with a basket of flowers: "Would you like to buy a flower?"

Ye Youlan squatted down and asked kindly, "Do you think we look like people who can afford to buy flowers?"

The little girl picked the most beautiful flower from the basket and handed it to Ye Youlan: "Then I'll give one to my sister."

Ye Youlan took it with a smile, then took out ten cents.

Looking at the girl's back as she left, Ye Youlan thought of the little girl selling lotus flowers she met when she was leaving the capital. She broke off a branch and tried to stick it on her hair, but suddenly she cried out in pain as the thorns accidentally pricked her.

Blood gushed out, and Ye Youlan put it in her mouth and sucked it. The Seventh Prince pulled it away and looked at her fingers: "Be more careful next time."

Ye Youlan handed the flower to the Seventh Prince: "Put it in my hair for me."

The Seventh Prince took the flower and found that the broken stem was black. He had a bad feeling. He pulled a silver hairpin from Ye Youlan's hair and tested it: "It's poisonous."

Ye Youlan was startled and panicked: "What should I do? I won't die, right?"

"Go home quickly."

The Seventh Prince held Ye Youlan in his arms, and then four secret guards jumped out.

"Go check on the little girl from earlier."

Two secret guards left immediately, and the remaining two secret guards escorted the Seventh Prince and Ye Youlan back to the mansion.

At first, Ye Youlan laughed at the Seventh Prince for being a little exaggerated, but after arriving at the palace, her lips had turned purple and her face had turned blue. Xiaomei was frightened and asked the princess crying what was wrong?

The imperial physician arrived immediately. Doctor Sun was having dinner at home when he was kidnapped by a man in black. When he saw the Seventh Prince, his nervous heart settled down. But when he saw the princess lying unconscious on the bed, his heart began to hang again.

Doctor Sun quickly put down his medical box, took the patient's pulse, and gave him another injection with a silver needle.

The Seventh Prince felt that time was passing too slowly and every second was torture. He stared at Doctor Sun, hoping to see good news on his face.

Doctor Sun took out a pill from the medicine box and asked Xiaomei to dissolve it in warm water and give it to the princess.

He told the Seventh Prince: "The princess must have been poisoned. As for what kind of poison, I still need to research it."

"Is Youlan's life in danger?"

Doctor Sun shook his head: "He is just in a coma at the moment. If he doesn't wake up for a long time..."

Doctor Sun didn't finish his words, but the Seventh Prince understood: "You should study it quickly. I will find another doctor to study it with you."

"That would be best, that would be best."

Li Zhi asked Dr. Sun what he needed and he would prepare it.

"My pharmacy has..."

The Seventh Prince turned and ordered, "Move the pharmacy of Dr. Sun over here."

"Yes."

"Call over Doctor Chen, Doctor Li, and anyone who's not on duty."

"Yes."

"Seal the news and don't let it spread outside."

"Yes."

That night, the palace was brightly lit, and many people were awake. The Seventh Prince sat at the head of the bed, watching over Ye Youlan. Li Zhi came over to see him, wanting to persuade him to get some rest, but he didn't dare to, knowing it was useless.

The palace specially cleared out a room and moved the pharmacy of Imperial Physician Sun over. Several imperial physicians who were not on duty also rushed over. They analyzed and studied the situation together and then came up with a treatment plan.

After trying one antidote and it didn't work, I quickly developed another one. I spent the whole night in tension. In the morning, I received the only piece of news: the princess was breathing calmly and her face was no longer blue, but pale.

It seems that the antidote has some effect, but it cannot detoxify the body fundamentally.

In Qingyue Temple, Yilan was wearing a blue cloth dress and beating a wooden fish with an expressionless face. Her son Li Zong was looking at her eagerly.

Li Zong impatiently snatched the wooden fish from his mother's hand: "Mom, your son is dying, why are you still beating the wooden fish?"

"You asked for it."

"Yes, I asked for it. I am just like my father, and I died just like my father. Are you happy?"

Li Zong roared, "From childhood to adulthood, you've been nice to me one moment, then cold to me the next. You've looked at me coldly, then pitiful. Dad has had one woman after another, and you've remained indifferent. Okay, now I'm following Dad's old path. Are you satisfied? Mother, I don't want to follow Dad's old path. I was deceived. They were the ones who schemed against me, not me."

Yilan said coldly, "The result is the same. How can I, a vegetarian and Buddhist, help you? I can only ask Buddha to bless you."

Li Zong sneered: "Yu Rou told me that you and the Queen Mother are close friends. Go find the Queen Mother and ask her to speak for me in front of the Emperor."

"Don't forget, Ren Yue is the Queen Mother's niece."

"I don't care. Yu Rou said that only you can help me now."

Yilan was a little surprised: "Did Yurou say this?"

"I don't understand either. Yu Rou said you can definitely help me, only you can help me. I don't understand where she gets her confidence from."

Yilan sneered and said helplessly: "It's all bad fate."

Yilan asked Li Zong to go back first and she would go to see the Queen Mother.

Li Zongren showed his delight: "Thank you, mother."

"If you can escape danger this time, you must mend your ways and live a good life with Yurou."

Li Zong thought to himself that he wanted to live a good life with her, but she didn't want to. However, he changed his mind and thought that Yu Rou was angry, and it should be fine if he coaxed her once she calmed down.

After Li Zong left, Yilan took out the half jade pendant and gave it to Liu Ma, asking her to deliver it to Ren Qishan at Jinghua Academy, and then said that Yilan wanted to see the Queen Mother.

Aunt Liu was worried: "What if they have bad intentions?"

Yilan's eyes were firm: "She doesn't dare, go ahead!"

The Empress Dowager had been lying in bed for several days because of Ren Yue's matter. Her symptoms were slightly better that day, so she asked the palace maid to go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Doctor Chen to come and take her pulse.

The palace maid came back and said that Doctor Chen was not on duty and asked for his annual leave.

"Where's Doctor Sun?"

"Dr. Sun's house was robbed and many herbs were stolen. Dr. Sun asked for leave to go up the mountain to collect herbs."

"Where's Dr. Li?"

"Doctor Li's hands have been shaking lately, so he can't take the pulse and needs to rest at home."

The empress dowager frowned. What a coincidence that the people who took her pulse were not there.

At this time, Ren Qishan came in and asked everyone else to leave.

The Queen Mother asked unhappily, "Why are you here? Have you dealt with Ren Yue's matter?"

"It's been handled. This Ren Yue is a fake. He's a fraud and has ruined the reputation of the Ren and Liu families. He will be hung on the wall for three days as a punishment."

The Queen Mother sighed and could only say, "What else do you want?"

Ren Qishan took out half of the jade pendant and handed it to the empress dowager. The empress dowager froze and asked him where he got it.

"Yilan had someone send you to Jinghua Academy. I guess she wanted you to speak for Li Zong."

"How dare she ask me for help? Her son killed my niece, the one I've watched grow up. How dare she?"

The Queen Mother was a little excited. Ren Qishan said coldly, "Do you have something on her? Otherwise, she wouldn't dare to do this."

The Queen Mother's expression changed slightly. "What kind of handle could she have against me? She just wants me to consider our friendship."

Ren Qishan asked the Queen Mother if she wanted to see her?

"See."

"Then I'll make arrangements."
