The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

Song Jingchen was summoned to the palace on the second day, perhaps because of the lessons learned from Shangguanpu, not only did a person searched there at the entrance of the palace, but there was even a checkpoint at the entrance of the imperial study.

After a body search, it was determined that he did not have a murder weapon on him before he was released.

When he walked into the imperial study, he saw that the emperor was taking medicine pills with water, Song Jingchen's eyes moved slightly, and he bowed his head and cupped his hands: "Chen, I have seen Your Majesty."

After a long time, I heard the emperor on the dragon chair speak: "This time I can get out of trouble, and Aiqing takes the lead. Tell me, what reward do you want."

"Your Majesty Hongfu Qitian has the protection of a true dragon, and this minister does not dare to take credit..."

There was a look of satisfaction on the emperor's face, and he opened his mouth to praise.

Just listen to Song Jingchen continue: "But I do have something to ask for."

The emperor's face darkened, thinking of something, he said solemnly: "Tell me."

"Before the minister captured a woman who came out of Mingxiang Residence, and learned from the woman's mouth that all women who entered Mingxiang Residence were fed a poison called Heart-Eating, but in King Jing's Mansion, it was not Find the antidote. I implore Your Majesty Rongchen to see King Jing so that we can get the antidote for those innocent women."

The emperor frowned: "Why didn't I hear you mention it before?"

"I'm worried that I'll startle snakes, so..."

The emperor paused, thinking of the two eyeliners he had just pulled out, and asked with a light cough, "How is the poisoned woman now?"

"Dead." Immediately afterwards, Song Jingchen explained the poison of the heart-devouring poison.

As soon as he heard that he did not have an attack, the pulse was no different from ordinary people, and the emperor's expression changed immediately, and he stood up abruptly: "Then..."

He paused in the middle of the conversation, and he sat back again and said suspiciously: "The servant girl in your house who detoxifies me can't detoxify this poison?"

"This is exactly what the minister wanted to tell His Majesty. According to the servant girl of the minister's house, this poison requires a poisonous weed called Heart-Eating Grass, and the Heart-Eating Grass has only been recorded in the previous dynasty, and it has long since disappeared in this dynasty. As for this antidote, the rhizome of Heart Devouring Grass is needed as a medicinal guide.

So, it's not that it can't be solved, it's that the medicine can't be found at all. "

The emperor was shocked: "You mean there are remnants of the previous dynasty? And colluded with that rebel?"

Song Jingchen: "I don't know."

He knows the emperor too well. Others are thinking about danger in times of peace, but it is the exact opposite for him. Once he loses the sense of crisis and feels that he is safe, he will do everything possible to relieve himself and kill the donkey.

Just like to the Song family back then...

That's why he deliberately referred to Tianji Valley as the former dynasty.

The emperor's face changed several times, from shock to panic to doubt.

Coincidentally, at this time, there was an internal attendant outside the hall saying that Lord Cai, the Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture, had an urgent matter.

The emperor glanced at Song Jingchen and said solemnly, "Let him in."

After a cup of tea, Mr. Cai walked into the imperial study room, knelt down and bowed: "My minister, meet your majesty."

"Cai Aiqing is going to the palace today, what's the important thing?" the emperor asked.

Master Cai glanced at Song Jingchen.

The emperor waved his hand: "Uncle Zhongyi is not an outsider. If you have something to say, just say it directly."

Master Cai lowered his eyes: "Yes, it's the women who are locked in the Jingzhao Mansion prison. Today, for some unknown reason, several people suddenly fell to the ground and cried, and even tried to commit suicide by hitting the wall. …”

The emperor frowned, isn't this the same situation as Song Jingchen said about the attack of the heart-eating poison?

"Can the doctor see it?" he asked.

"I invited all the famous doctors in Beijing, and they all said that Xu... Xu was poisoned..." Mr. Cai's voice became smaller and smaller, and after speaking, he kowtowed a few times on the ground: "Ke Chen These days, people will keep the prison tightly closed, and it is absolutely impossible for people to have the possibility of drug use, please your majesty to investigate."

Not to mention that those women are important witnesses, even now the common people are paying attention to this case. If they died in the prison inexplicably, the emperor would not be able to explain to the common people. Wouldn’t it be counted on his head?

Xu is? Just not sure.

The emperor's eyes sank, and he summoned a chamberlain to ask the imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital to come with Mr. Cai.

Master Cai repeatedly kowtowed to thank him.

There were a lot of women who had seizures in a row, and he almost called everyone in the Taiyuan Hospital away.

It was the imperial physician Zheng who came back with him to answer, and he replied: "If you go back to your majesty, those women are indeed poisoned, but..."

"Just what?" the emperor asked.

"It's just that the poison in them is really strange, but it's a bit like a poison that I have heard of before." Then he recounted what happened in the prison.

It turned out that he had people take the pulse of those women who didn't have the disease. The pulse was the same as the normal person a moment ago, but the next moment it suddenly occurred, and when he went to check the pulse again, it was obviously poisonous.

Emperor: "What poison?"

"I have only heard of one or two, and I don't know its name, but..." The imperial doctor wiped his sweat: "But the poison that I know of has only appeared in the previous dynasty, so I can't confirm whether it is the same kind."

Song Jingchen raised his eyebrows, the imperial doctor was not colluding with him.

However, Tianji Valley was so active in the previous dynasty, it is not surprising that the Heart Devouring Poison would spread.

The emperor repeatedly asked if there was a way to detoxify. The imperial physician said that the poison was too strange. It was the first time he saw it, and he needed to study it for a while.

But those women may not be able to last until then...

Now the emperor can't believe what Song Jingchen said.

He waved his hand to let him back off.

Song Jingchen glanced at Mr. Cai and reminded him, "Those women are innocent people, don't let them kill themselves. If it's really impossible, knock them out first."

Mr. Cai was stunned for a moment, looked at the emperor cautiously, got a nod from the latter, and then thanked him and retreated with the imperial physician.

The emperor's face was as black as ink. During the time he was imprisoned, the rebel had fed him so many things. What if he was also poisoned?

The more I think about the emperor, the more afraid it becomes, and I even feel inexplicably that something is wrong with me.

He took a deep breath and said sternly: "Song Aiqing, you go, let that idiot hand over the antidote, and you must not let innocent people die. Also, be sure to find out where he came from this poison, whether it is true or not. There really are remnants of the past."

Song Jingchen sneered in his heart: "The minister follows the order."

When Song Jingchen left, the emperor remembered the purpose of calling him into the palace, but thinking of the possible remnants of the previous dynasty, he was glad that he was polite first, instead of giving him a rise and fall.

After coming out of the palace, Song Jingchen took the token given by the emperor and went to the prison of the Zongren Mansion.

I don't know if it was intentional or not, but the cell where Shangguanpu was imprisoned was where the old prince was held before.

It's just that the old prince went crazy at Lingyin Temple and was taken away by Shangguanpu, and was ignored by everyone.

I don't know if the emperor forgot, but he hasn't asked about it since he returned to the palace.

In the dimly lit dungeon, Shangguanpu was unkempt, leaning against the corner with blood stained body, obviously being tortured.

Song Jingchen motioned to the prison guard to open the prison door, the prison guard hesitated for a moment, and finally released the key from his waist...

The prison door opened and closed, but Shangguanpu didn't even lift his eyelids.

His crime didn't need to be tried at all. The reason why the emperor didn't give him death directly was because he didn't have enough to vent.

Song Jingchen walked up to him, looked at him condescendingly for a long time, and said calmly, "Isn't it reconciled?"

After five years of careful planning, it failed without causing much splash. Anyone would be unwilling to change it.

Shangguan Pu's deadly eyes narrowed, and suddenly he sneered, he raised his head and looked at Song Jingchen mockingly: "What qualifications do you have to see me as a thief and father? Or are you naive enough to think that you are really being kidnapped? Is that one trusted?"

"I think you didn't forget the tragic situation of the Song family two years ago, just wait, the next one is you, hahaha..."

Song Jingchen flicked the non-existent ash on his robe and shook his head: "You don't even know where you lost, you are so pitiful."

Shangguanpu's laughter stopped abruptly, and his eyes stared at Song Jingchen with resentment.

"You don't think it's because of me, do you?" Song Jingchen said.

Shangguanpu was stunned for a moment, apparently his own voice was spoken.

Song Jingchen chuckled: "Then you look down on me too much."

"What do you mean?" Shangguanpu asked.

"It literally means, your ending is doomed long ago, even without me, you can't succeed."

Shangguanpu looked at him for a long time, then sneered again: "I don't know when Song Shizi had the ability to show people his appearance."

"I don't understand it, but there are people in this world who do." Song Jingchen said seriously.

"What the hell do you mean?"

Song Jingchen didn't give a shit anymore: "I wonder if His Royal Highness King Jing has heard of Tianji Valley?"

Although Song Jingchen said that before, but Shangguanpu actually knew that he was not the kind of person who would fall into trouble, so he really thought about it seriously.

"The Tianji Valley where the previous dynasty was at its peak?" he asked.

Song Jingchen raised his eyebrows, knowing it was fine, otherwise he would have to waste his time explaining.

He looked around and didn't see a chair, so he could only sit on the ground opposite Shangguanpu.

"That's right, it is said that Tianji Valley only assists people with emperors and generals, so do you know that the heart-eating poison you use to control those women comes from Tianji Valley?"

"Oh, and also, the poison you fed the emperor also came from Tianji Valley."

Shangguanpu's eyes narrowed, and he had a guess in his heart, but he still couldn't believe it and asked again, "What do you mean?"

Song Jingchen inexplicably thought that if Shen Yijia was here, he would definitely scold: "It means that you are a big fool."

He held back the corners of his lips that he wanted to raise, clenched his fists against his lips and coughed lightly: "It means that you...you are just a pawn in someone else's hands from beginning to end."

As he was deceiving himself, Song Jingchen continued: "In fact, since the person who provided you with poison appeared by your side, you have no chance of success. Of course, you may think that you are the one chosen by Tianji Valley, but if it is true In this way, why didn't the other party tell you his identity? If you have a background in Tianji Valley, you will only use him more, right? He didn't say it, but because he was just using you and didn't trust you at all."

Knowing the Tianji Valley, it is natural to know how many emperors he assisted in the previous dynasty, plus the rumor, and their ability to fortune and avoid evil...

Anyone who has ambitions, if they know that there is such a person around, will definitely treat him as a guest of honor.

"How do you know he didn't tell me his identity..." Shangguanpu said angrily.

Song Jingchen looked at him like a fool.

If he really knew, he wouldn't have reacted that way when he asked about Tianji Valley just now.

Shangguanpu:  …

He clenched his fist and slammed it hard on the ground, causing the chain on his hand to rattle.

He turned his head away: "Are you trying to tell me that the real Dragon Emperor selected by Tianji Valley is the fifth?"

Song Jingchen shook his head: "It's not him."

"Is it you?"

Song Jingchen was a little helpless: "I said at the beginning, even without me, you will not succeed."

He suspected that Shangguanpu had been hit so hard that he lost his mind.

"Who is that?"

"I don't know yet, but I think it's coming soon."

Shangguanpu: "..."

"So you're here to let me know that I'm a total idiot who gets toyed with applause?"

"I just want you to know that your real enemy is not me."

"Heh." Shangguanpu sneered: "Then what? I'm a dying person, what's the use of knowing this? Can I still seek revenge from them?"

Song Jingchen thought for a while: "The chosen person in Tianji Valley used you to fight with me, hiding behind the back to take advantage of the fisherman. If you are gone, the next person they have to deal with is naturally me."

"So when you die, I should be able to avenge you by the way."

Shangguanpu choked, inexplicably heard the meaning of "rest in peace".

"You're taking yourself too seriously," he sneered.

Song Jingchen raised his eyebrows, noncommittal.

"Tell me, the real purpose of your coming to me." Shangguanpu finally picked up his brain.

"First, the antidote to heart-eating poison. Second, I want to know the whole process of how you framed Ah Han."

Even if all the evidence points to Shangguanpu, Song Jingchen doesn't think he will do this alone.

After all, Shangguanpu has always shown ambition on his face, and has always been the object of Donggong's guard. It is even more impossible for him to put so many things in Donggong without knowing it.

Song Jingchen prefers to have a secret hand helping him do this.

Maybe it's an existence that even Shangguanpu doesn't know about, just like he doesn't know that he has been used for so many years.

From Song Jingchen's point of view, Shangguanpu deserved to be damned, but he also didn't want to let go of the man who was hiding behind his back and controlling everything.

Shangguanpu's pupils shrank: "You..."

He wanted to ask Song Jingchen how he found it, and when he thought of the old prince who was greedy for life and feared death, he understood again.

He laughed at himself, and leaned his head against the wall lazily: "The pharmacist only gave me compression medicine. But...you really impress me."

Knowing that what happened back then had something to do with him, he was still able to speak to him here calmly.

In the past, no matter how famous Song Jingchen was, he was disdainful, but now he is convinced.

If it works for him...

It is a pity that since the two people were born, it is not destined to be in the same camp.

Song Jingchen didn't speak, just waited for him to speak.

"I can tell you, but yours does two things for me."

"Tell me about it." Not sure if it can be done or not.

Shangguanpu glanced at him: "The first thing, I don't know about all the fourth brother I did, whether I was sent to a poor place to be an idle prince, or demoted to a commoner, help me save his life."

"The second thing, Kang'er is still young, he is also innocent..."

"Which of those women is not innocent." Song Jingchen scoffed.

"The struggle for the throne requires sacrifice." Shangguanpu didn't think he did anything wrong.

Most of the people he arrested were children from poor families who couldn't even get enough to eat at home, so they might as well use it for him.

Song Jingchen didn't continue to reason with him about "if others can sacrifice, why can't your children bear the consequences for what you do".

Because Shangguanpu is a typical high-ranking person thinking, maybe in his opinion, those women should feel honored that they can contribute to his grand plan and hegemony, and arguing is meaningless.
