Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen
Chapter 145: Cold Sun
She was too young, too proud, and too conceited then.
She was the most beloved daughter of the powerful Duke Zhenguo at that time, and a darling girl who had been loved by everyone in her life. There were countless men pursuing her and infatuated with her, but she ignored them all. Until she met the young Sixth Prince Ye Xiuyuan.
Ye Xiuyuan's mother was Concubine Hua. Although Concubine Hua was the most beautiful concubine in the harem, her mother's family was weak, so her status in the harem was relatively low, and the prince she gave birth to also lost the qualification to compete for the throne.
Ye Xiuyuan inherited his mother's beauty and accepted her teachings. He had no ambition for the throne. He was a prince who lived a quiet life and never showed any ambition for the throne. He either rode horses and hunted or wrote poems every day. He made friends with some literati in the capital and was known as "the most beautiful man in the capital".
When Shi Hanyu was sixteen years old, she went to a jewelry store with her maid to buy jewelry. When she arrived at the store, her purse was stolen by a thief. She was terrified. At this time, Ye Xiuyuan appeared. He happened to be buying paintings at the calligraphy and painting store next door with his friends. Seeing this, he chased the thief, took the purse back, and returned it to her.
From then on, her heart was tied to Ye Xiuyuan.
She knew that he had a childhood sweetheart, Yu Ruyan, the daughter of Master Yu, but Shi Hanyu still plunged into it headfirst.
At that time, Yu Ruyan's brother Yu Chengru was the prince's companion. Yu Ruyan was sent to the Imperial Academy with some carefully selected daughters of noble families to study with the princes and princesses. Because of this, Ye Xiuyuan met her. Ye Xiuyuan fell in love with Yu Ruyan the first time he saw her. Yu Ruyan is as her name suggests, like a dream and smoke, with a pair of affectionate eyes and a fairy-like aura. She was the dream beauty of many princes and nobles at that time. She was not only beautiful, but also talented. She was a rare talent. She and Ye Xiuyuan met almost every day and admired each other. Not long after, she also fell in love with Ye Xiuyuan.
It was only natural for the two to get married when they were in love. But just when Ye Xiuyuan was about to ask the emperor for permission to marry him, Shi Hanyu unexpectedly intervened.
Shi Hanyu had not entered the Imperial College at that time. At that time, she had just returned to Beijing from the border with the Duke of Zhenguo. Not long after returning to Beijing, she met Ye Xiuyuan.
From then on, the three of them were entangled for most of their lives.
"What is the important matter that the Queen wants to see me about?" The low and unhappy voice brought Shi Hanyu back to his senses.
She stared at the man in front of her, the husband she once loved wholeheartedly. Forty years had transformed the once handsome man into a dignified and cold king. She had never seen him smile in front of her. His gentleness and smile, along with his love, were all given to Yu Ruyan.
A strong feeling of unwillingness and hatred surged in her heart.
She had thought that when Yu Ruyan disappeared from this world, he would look back and see her goodness and gradually keep her in his heart. However, she never expected that all his love would die with Yu Ruyan's departure.
From then on, he never even stepped into the door of her bedroom.
"If I have nothing to do, will I not be able to see Your Majesty?" She raised the corners of her lips, her eyes filled with sarcasm.
Emperor Zheng'an turned his head away from her and said coldly, "If the Queen has nothing to do, please leave. I still have many important matters to deal with."
"Your Majesty, don't you want to know how Ye Feng was poisoned?"
Emperor Zheng'an turned around abruptly and shot his cold eyes straight at her.
"Does the Queen know?" he asked, suppressing the thoughts in his heart.
Queen Shi smiled coldly.
She knew that as long as it came to Yu Ruyan and her offspring, he would no longer be able to treat her coldly.
How pathetic is she?
It was because of another woman, a woman who had been dead for many years, that he gave her a little attention.
"I know that Your Majesty has always suspected that the people who poisoned Ye Feng were me, my father and my brother. But Your Majesty, why don't you think about it? Ye Feng was still in Princess Jing's belly at the time. Why would I embarrass a fetus?"
Emperor Zheng'an remained silent.
Shi Hanyu laughed at herself: "I know that no matter what I say, His Majesty will not believe it. However, I still have to say it. I accidentally learned that Ye Feng was poisoned in his mother's womb. The poison was given to Princess Jing at that time. It is called Qianrihan and is extracted from a rare poisonous grass."
"Thousand Days of Cold?" Emperor Zheng'an looked at Rongyaozu. Rongyaozu shook his head at him, indicating that he had never heard of it.
"Xuan Gao Quting." Emperor Zheng'an ordered in a deep voice.
When Gao Quting came in, he saw Yaoyaozu standing in front of the table, and the emperor and empress sitting at the two ends of the study without saying a word. He couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Doctor Gao, have you ever heard of the poison called Qianrihan?" Emperor Zheng'an asked.
Gao Quting looked a little stern, and said solemnly: "I have heard of this poison, but I only learned about it recently. This poison is made from the juice of a poisonous grass called Hanyuzhi. It is colorless and tasteless, and turns into ice when it comes into contact with water. The poison enters the body through the mouth, seeps into the internal organs and blood, and accumulates and spreads in the body over the years. The body temperature of the poisoned person gradually drops, and he is afraid of the cold all year round. He becomes weaker day by day, but he will not die immediately. Instead, it will take a thousand days for his life to be exhausted like a burned-out candle, and he will die."
Gao Yutang discovered this poison after searching through various ancient books and medical books. Recently, he wrote to tell him that he suspected that the poison that the crown prince was poisoned with was this Qianrihan.
Gao Quting was just looking for an opportunity to report the matter to Emperor Zheng'an, but he didn't expect that Emperor Zheng'an would ask him about the poison at this moment.
Could it be that Your Majesty already knew that the poison that the Crown Prince was poisoned with was Qianrihan?
As expected, Gao Quting heard Emperor Zheng'an say, "Doctor Gao, the Empress said that the poison that the Crown Prince was poisoned with was this Thousand Days Cold."
Gao Quting was very surprised and asked, "How did the Majesty know this?"
Queen Shi glared at Gao Quting.
She really disliked this old doctor who always smiled kindly. If it weren't for this person, Ye Feng would have gone to hell long ago.
But she didn't dare to touch Gao Quting easily.
As long as anything happened to Gao Quting, Emperor Zheng'an could easily find clues about the person who harmed him.
She didn't want to get burned.
Besides, they all thought that Ye Feng would not live past the age of three. But unexpectedly, Sikong Xiang and Gao Quting joined forces to extend the boy's life to this day.
But even so, Ye Feng still did not live past the age of eighteen.
Thinking of this, Empress Shi showed a proud look on her face and said, "I happen to know a miracle doctor who has some connection with Medicine King Valley. I have heard her talk about it. She once treated the Crown Prince's illness. After she did a lot of research, she found out that the Crown Prince was infected with this poison."
………………
Zuo Yi followed Ye Feng's instructions and went to Xilin County to find out if there were any more missing refugees. When he came back, he brought back a message for Lu Ke'er.
"Hu Ya's sister Zhu Rong is conscious now."
These days, when Lu Ke'er goes to Xilin County, she will take time to see Zhu Rong regularly. Zhu Rong became mentally ill after being stimulated in the Jia Mansion. Although her recovery is a matter of time, which is within Lu Ke'er's expectations, she is still very happy to hear this good news.
Huya is a good young man with superb craftsmanship, a trustworthy person, and he dotes on his sister very much. Now that his sister has woken up, the happiest people are him and his mother.
"Miss Lu, Huya hopes that Miss Lu can spare some time to visit his home. He said that he has something important to tell you."
