Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, the prince led me to rebel

When Du Kongqing was brought to the Qianqing Palace, he was still completely confused.

First, the palace was under martial law, and then all the imperial doctors were dispatched to the inner palace. She knew with a little guessing that something had happened to someone in the palace, and that person was not of low status.

But she never expected that the person in trouble was Emperor Tianqi.

What she didn't expect was that the Imperial Guards would take her to the Qianqing Palace.

Then, Concubine Bai, who now held the highest rank in the imperial harem, specifically asked her to treat Emperor Tianqi, and said that if she could not cure him, her entire family would be buried with her.

Du Kongqing cherished his life very much and did not want to implicate his family, so he adjusted himself from his confused state in an instant, walked quickly to the dragon bed, and examined Emperor Tianqi.

Du Kongqing's upright posture formed a sharp contrast with the imperial doctors kneeling on the ground.

Those imperial doctors who laughed at Du Kongqing in the past now rely their entire fortunes and lives on her. How ironic!

After a while, Du Kongqing frowned and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

No wonder even Imperial Physician Zhang didn’t know what the poison was, because Emperor Tianqi was poisoned by two rare poisons!

Ordinary doctors may not have even seen one of these poisons, let alone two poisons acting on one person. The original characteristics of the poisons will be hidden to a certain extent, making it even more difficult to judge.

If she had not read the notes left by her grandfather, which happened to record a similar situation, she might have been in danger of her life today.

Two poisons, one that makes the body weak and the other that kills directly, when acting together on one person, actually neutralize each other and save the life of the poisoned person.

Du Kongqing couldn't help but glance at Concubine Bai who was filled with anxiety, then at Imperial Doctor Zhang who was staring at her, and finally at the other imperial doctors who were kneeling on the ground. This poison...she could actually cure it.

But she was very curious about how Emperor Tianqi was poisoned by two poisons at the same time?

Not to mention that the person poisoned was Emperor Tianqi, how did the poisoner bypass the cumbersome poison testing procedures in the palace? The possibility of any one person being poisoned by two poisons at the same time should be very low, right?

That being said, the source of the poison is likely to be from the same place...

Regicide? Conspiracy against the dynasty? Usurpation of the throne?

Several words flashed through Du Kongqing's mind in an instant.

Who was the biggest beneficiary after Emperor Tianqi was poisoned?

Who has the guts to attack him?

Who has the conditions to poison him...

"Can you cure this poison?"

It was not until Concubine Bai became impatient and asked in a stern voice that Du Kongqing calmed down and replied:

"Replying to the Imperial Concubine, the Emperor has been poisoned by two kinds of poisons, both of which came from Western Xinjiang."

"The two poisons, which were originally highly toxic, neutralize each other in the emperor's body, and reduce the damage to the dragon's body. I will detoxify the emperor now."

"Good good!"

Hearing Du Kongqing say this, Concubine Bai held her chest and took a deep breath, and hurriedly urged:

"Hurry up and interpret it for the emperor, and I will reward you handsomely!"

Doctor Zhang, who was kneeling under the bed, moved slightly and was surprised to find that his back was soaked with sweat.

Because of his status, he couldn't breathe a sigh of relief like Concubine Bai, but the excitement in his heart was hard to suppress.

——He made the right bet!

Master Du Yannian was the best at detoxifying. Although he has passed away, his granddaughter happens to be in the Imperial Hospital. Isn’t this God’s arrangement?

Imperial Physician Zhang understood very well that if anything happened to Emperor Tianqi, his whole family would be finished. So, with the mentality of trying everything possible, he recommended Du Kongqing to Concubine Bai.

Concubine Bai did not agree at first, until he used his own life as a guarantee and vowed that Du Kongqing could definitely detoxify the emperor, only then was Du Kongqing allowed to step into the Qianqing Palace.

The Imperial Medical Bureau had all kinds of medicinal materials. Du Kongqing wrote the prescription and she didn't need to do it herself. The imperial doctors kneeling in the hall hurried to prepare the medicine according to the prescription.

Tsk tsk tsk, in the past, the work of preparing and boiling medicine was all done by Du Kongqing.

A medicinal bath was also prepared, which could be taken internally and applied externally to eliminate the toxins from Emperor Tianqi's body as quickly as possible and wake him up as soon as possible.

The people who originally looked after Emperor Tianqi while he was taking the medicinal bath should have been the eunuch Zheng Tianbao and a group of imperial doctors.

But Concubine Bai was worried and insisted on staying by the side, and even wanted to bring Du Kongqing along, which was against the rules.

Zheng Tianbao tried to persuade her, but Concubine Bai said, "What crime have you committed? Wait until the emperor wakes up and let him punish me!"

Zheng Tianbao was defeated.

But Du Kongqing was not happy. The imperial doctors all knew the precautions for Emperor Tianqi to take a medicinal bath. So why was he dragging her, a girl from the boudoir, here?

She had no fetish for looking at naked men, even if that man was the emperor with supreme power.

But no matter how she explained, Concubine Bai refused to let her go, saying that she was the one who prescribed the medicine and the medicinal bath. If Emperor Tianqi could successfully detoxify, she would have made a great contribution, but if he couldn't wake up...

Du Kongqing was completely speechless. If he couldn't wake up, would she be responsible for the crime?

This seems to be the word Xiaoran said. What is it called?

She remembered, this is what it means to “pass the buck”!

No matter how anxious he was in his heart, Du Kongqing had no choice but to stay here with him.

After soaking in the medicinal bath for half an hour and preparing the detoxifying medicine, Emperor Tianqi immediately spat out a mouthful of smelly black blood after drinking it.

Concubine Bai immediately glared at Du Kongqing angrily. Just as she was about to explode, the voice of Emperor Tianqi sounded faintly:

"What's wrong with me?"

"Your Majesty, you are finally awake!"

Concubine Bai was overjoyed. Her aggressive behavior immediately turned into gentleness and kindness. She threw herself in front of Emperor Tianqi's dragon bed like a pigeon in his arms, tears streaming down her face.

"Your Majesty, you frightened me."

Seeing that Concubine Bai was still expressing fear but did not answer Emperor Tianqi's question, Imperial Doctor Zhang stepped forward decisively.

"Your Majesty, you are in a coma due to poisoning. Please allow me to feel your pulse and check whether all the poison has been eliminated."

A trace of astonishment flashed across Emperor Tianqi's dark eyes. Poisoned? How could it be?

"allow."

After Imperial Doctor Zhang diagnosed Emperor Tianqi and confirmed that the poison had been neutralized, he prescribed a prescription for recuperation of his body, and only then did he feel truly relieved.

Du Kongqing was also half a member of the Imperial Hospital. Since she detoxified Emperor Tianqi, it was not considered the Imperial Hospital's fault.

To be precise, there were two people who failed to fulfill their responsibilities. One was Zheng Tianbao, the chief eunuch of the imperial palace, and the other was Meng Yong, who was responsible for the defense of the imperial city.

Zheng Tianbao, who had been waiting by the side, was extremely frightened at this moment. He also wanted to step forward to express his concern to Emperor Tianqi, or to defend himself.

But Concubine Bai and Imperial Physician Zhang had been talking in front of Emperor Tianqi, not giving him a chance to step forward!

Fortunately, after Emperor Tianqi's condition improved a little, he sent away all the people in the Imperial Hospital and Concubine Bai.

Only the personal eunuch Zheng Tianbao and Meng Yong, who had hurried over to report upon learning that Emperor Tianqi had woken up, were left.

"I deserve to die! I have carefully checked the Emperor's meals, tea, snacks, and incense for the past three days, and there is nothing wrong with them."

Although he had been guarding Emperor Tianqi, he was not idle. He had already ordered his eunuchs to screen one by one, but to no avail.

Emperor Tianqi leaned back against the pillow and glanced down at Zheng Tianbao who was kneeling on the ground, his voice still a little weak.

"You really deserve to die. As the chief eunuch of the palace, you are responsible for my food, clothing, housing and transportation. How could you not notice when this dirty stuff got into the palace?"
