“He took poison to commit suicide. Stop him!” Rong Zhan saw through it at a glance and said decisively.
However, it was futile for them to stop him now. Imperial Physician Mengs eyes were still wide open, and his expression was one of death. Soon, he lost his breath.
Meng Qizhou was the closest to Imperial Physician Meng. He quickly checked Imperial Physician Mengs condition and shook his head. “l can’t. He’s been poisoned too deeply. He can’t be saved.”
“This damned slave is truly audacious. He actually dared to do such a thing.
Fortunately, the prince regent brought Young Master Meng here in time.
Otherwise, wouldn’t the princess consort be wronged?” The empress looked at Gu Qingxue hypocritically and asked gently, “Princess Consort, you must be frightened, right? It was all my fault just now, I apologize to you. I was too concerned about his majesty’s health and accidentally wrongly accused you.”
Gu Qingxue saw that there was no trace of guilt in the empress’ eyes as she spoke, and the sneer in her eyes grew even more intense,
Did the empress really think that she was a fool? Did she think that she would believe her nonsense?
However, now that things had come to this, she really could not say anything wrong when she saw the Empress find such a high-sounding reason.
Imperial Physician Meng was already dead. If she continued to hold on to him, then it would become her unrelenting and overbearing attitude.
No matter how much dissatisfaction she had, she could only endure it. Gu Qingxue put on a fake smile and said indifferently, “The Empress must be joking.”
After Gu Qingxue said that, she felt Rong Zhan holding her shoulders tightly.
She looked up at Rong Zhan. Gu Qingxue met his eyes and saw the worry hidden in his eyes.
Gu Qingxue knew very well what Rong Zhan wanted to say. She turned around and held his hand, saying nothing.
It was indeed not convenient for them to pursue this matter for the time being.
However, it was not convenient for them to pursue the matter for the time being, but it did not mean that they could not pursue it in the future. They would always find the right opportunity to make a move. When the time came, they would definitely make the Empress and Rong Jinghua pay for what they had done.
“Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, may I ask Young Master Meng, why did my father fall unconsious?” Rong Jinghua looked at Meng Qizhou in confusion.
Meng Qizhou replied with a serious expression, “Your Highness, His Majesty has been poisoned. This poison is very rare and is called the Strange Nightmare. Once poisoned, the victim will fall unconscious and slowly die from weakness. It is very difficult for ordinary doctors to see any clues, and they usually can’t tell that the person who is poisoned is poisoned. If they treat it by replenishing their Qi, it will instead cause the poison to spread further. causing the situation to become even worse.”
“Strange Nightmare… I’ve also heard of this poison. It’s rumored that this poison is incurable.” Rong Zhan said.
“Ah Zhan, there’s no poison in this world that can’t be cured. Everything in the world counters each other. Since there’s poison, there’s an antidote. However, it will take some time to really cure the poison.” As Gu Qingxue spoke, her gaze fell on Rong Zhan. She raised her eyebrows and smiled.
“l think so too.” As Meng Qizhou spoke, he turned to look at Rong Xiaotian on the bed. “Fortunately, the poison in His Majesty’s body is not too deep. If the princess consort and I think of a way together, we should be able to suppress the poison in His Majesty’s body from spreading further. If you want to remove the poison, you will need to spend some effort..”
