The sickly girl makes it hard for her to fly away

He Lianqing went to the hut and returned, but Qi Ningning still hadn't entered the house and was probably still talking to Hongshan outside.

He stood at the door and looked at it from a distance before turning around and entering the house.

Under the crabapple tree, Qi Ningning and Hongshan discussed the latest news.

"Your Highness, I have received news from Xuan Guo that the emperor's physical condition is indeed not optimistic recently. According to the diagnosis of the imperial physician, the toxin has almost spread to the heart."

Qi Ningning asked nervously: "Then is there any imperial doctor who can cure my father's poison?"

Information is delayed, especially in ancient times.

If you are a little further away, you have to communicate with people in another place, which can take as little as a day or as long as several months.

By the time the message arrived, some things had nothing to do with the message.

Qi Ningning is nervous about this issue now.

I don't know how many days it will take to pass the news from one post to another in Xuanguo to Hongshan.

According to the news they have received so far, Emperor Xuan is already in a very dangerous situation.

Once the poison in Emperor Xuan's body spreads to his heart, it will be too late.

At this time, Qi Ningning was in Beiyou, but her heart was close to Xuan Guo.

The sudden death of the emperor will cause the entire Xuan Kingdom to become chaotic and the court situation will be turbulent. It will take a certain amount of time for the new emperor to stabilize the court situation after he takes the throne. At this time, people with ulterior motives are usually most afraid of taking the opportunity to cause chaos.

Whether it was out of consideration for Xuan Guo or her daughter's concern for her father, Qi Ningning felt deeply uneasy and anxious.

She was not in Xuanguo and not with Emperor Xuan, so she could not really see Emperor Xuan's physical condition.

She felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

"Currently, the imperial doctors in the palace are trying their best to cure the emperor, but the poison is very overbearing and cannot be cured for a while..."

After Hongshan finished speaking, silence fell between the two.

Qi Ningning could not go back to Xuanguo, and Hongshan was protecting Qi Ningning in Beiyou under Emperor Xuan's order. He could only rely on people from Xuanguo to deliver news to him.

This is very passive, but there is nothing you can do about it.

"Also, Your Highness, you asked your subordinates to investigate the emperor's poisoning. According to the report of the spies who stayed in Xuan Kingdom, I heard that it was done by people from Beiyou."

Hongshan's words were the same as the content on the note she saw when she was taken into the palace yesterday.

She has already asked Hongshan. Everyone under Hongshan must obey Hongshan's orders. It is impossible to deliver news to Qi Ningning in private. Hongshan also meets with her in person every time to be on the safe side.

So the question now is who gave her the note she received at that time.

Did Emperor Changlong really intend to poison Emperor Xuan?
"Have all the people connected with Bi Yu been uprooted now?"

"The officers and soldiers in Changping County killed some people that night. The whereabouts of a small number of others and the person named Yan Ning are now unknown, and the people sent by my subordinates are still investigating."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Qi Ningning currently suspected that Bi Yu's group would still be making trouble outside if they were not wiped out in one fell swoop.

Hongshan thought for a moment and said, "Now that the misunderstanding between the two countries has been resolved, Your Highness might as well ask the second prince to see if he has a way to get the antidote to the poison that the emperor was poisoned by."

Yes, the most important thing now is to detoxify Emperor Xuan first.As for who poisoned Emperor Xuan, it won't be too late to wait until Emperor Xuan recovers.

Regardless of whether Emperor Changlong had someone poison Emperor Xuan, the misunderstanding has been resolved now. If it was them, they should hand over the antidote.

After talking to Hongshan, Qi Ningning returned to the room and He Lianqing had already copied a few pages.

Qi Ningning had something on her mind. After sitting down, she felt restless and kept looking over at He Lianqing.

He Lianqing quickly noticed her gaze. He simply put down his pen and asked, "Why do you keep looking at me after entering the room? Do you want to say something to me?"

He looked at Qi Ningning with focused eyes, not focusing on copying the palace rules.

Qi Ningning didn't know how to speak.

If she asked He Lianqing for an antidote, before she could fully understand the truth of the matter, it would be as if she thought Emperor Changlong was the one who poisoned Emperor Xuan.

This would make it easy for people to misunderstand, as if she didn't trust Bei You.

But she still had to ask for the sake of Emperor Xuan's life.

"Your Highness, I have a question to ask you. Do you know about my father's poisoning?"

He Lianqing's eyes flashed and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"When did this happen? Is this why you went out with your hidden guard just now?"

Qi Ningning nodded, "My father is currently poisoned and needs to get the antidote as soon as possible."

"I will send people out to gather all the best doctors in Beiyou to help study this poison, and then prepare an antidote as soon as possible."

Qi Ningning shook her head, "No, my father's body can't wait for them to take too long. I mean, we have to find the person who poisoned him and ask that person for the antidote."

"Then do you know who it is? Tell me, I will send people to find it, and I will definitely help you get the antidote." He Lianqing's concern for her was completely genuine.

Qi Ningning's next words only felt harder to say.

After thinking about it for a while, Qi Ningning tried his best to say something that would not cause He Lianqing to misunderstand.

"Listen to me. What I say next may be a bit hard for you to accept or you don't want to believe it, but what I say is all the information I have so far. I believe you."

Seeing Qi Ningning become so serious and caring so much about her feelings, He Lianqing felt sweet, but he was also a little scared.

"I received news from Hongshan today. He said that according to the investigators' reports, the poison on my father's body was poisoned by people from Beiyou."

He Lianqing's eyes flashed, and he said calmly: "No, people from Beiyou will not do this."

"Listen to me first. I really believe you, and I don't want to think that your father will let others poison my father. This kind of behavior is not a decision that a king would make."

"Even if you found out that Xuan Guo and Jing Guo secretly communicated with each other, stole information about the battle in Beiyou, misunderstood Xuan Guo, and were hostile to Xuan Guo, you would never take revenge in this way. This plan is not done by a gentleman. .”

As Qi Ningning spoke slowly, He Lianqing calmed down bit by bit and calmed down to listen to what she said.

"But I really can't let go of the slightest possibility, because I don't want to lose my father, so I want to find the antidote as soon as possible. I'm sorry, but this may hurt you..."

Because after she said this, others would subconsciously think that she thought the poisoning was done by Emperor Changlong, otherwise they would not ask for the antidote so directly.
