The strongest nine thousand years old
Chapter 58 Reactions from all parties
The eunuchs and palace maids were silent as a mouse, kneeling on the ground and not daring to move.
They felt that the sky was about to fall!
All the imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau were dispatched to take turns treating Yan Yunzheng, but they were unable to find the right answer.
Yan Yunzheng was lying on the bed, with no breathing, no pulse, and his body was cold, just like a dead person.
The imperial doctors were at a loss and looked at each other in amazement.
Wen Cheng asked cautiously: "Eunuch Chen, what kind of poison has His Majesty been poisoned by?"
"The poison is in the food. You can test it." Chen Dong said with a look of self-blame, "The situation was urgent at the time. I could only suppress the poison in your Majesty's body with silver needles. I didn't expect that your Majesty would actually... actually..."
After saying that, Chen Dong sighed deeply and two tears squeezed out of the corners of his eyes.
Several imperial doctors discussed it for a while and decided to first find out what the poison was in the food.
As for whether it will be effective or not, we can only leave it to fate.
No one dared to say that His Majesty had passed away. The person who had just said this had been beheaded by the eunuch in charge of the imperial court with a gloomy expression.
"Eunuch Chen, can you bring a dog over so that it can test the poison?"
"Dogs can't speak human language, so you should just hire humans, sirs."
"Ah? A living person?"
Many imperial doctors were shocked. Testing the poison on themselves, isn't this a disregard for human life?
However, when Yan Shijiu saw Chen Dong and the bloody knife in her hand, all the imperial doctors fell silent.
Chen Dong said coldly: "I have already prepared the candidates for you gentlemen."
Chen Dong clapped his hands, and two guards came over with a young eunuch.
This little eunuch was the one who just delivered the meal.
"Eunuch Chen, please spare me! It really wasn't me who poisoned him!" The young eunuch hugged Chen Dong's thigh and begged with tears and snot.
Chen Dong was unmoved and said coldly: "Anyone who has touched the food is suspected. You are the first person, not the last!"
"Open his mouth and feed him!"
One guard pinched the young eunuch's chin, and another guard picked up some food and stuffed it into the young eunuch's mouth.
The young eunuch retched and tried to spit out the food, but what he vomited out was a pool of black blood!
He fell to the ground, lifeless.
"sizzle"
The imperial doctors looked at each other in shock at the powerful poison.
"The poison is so strong that I have never heard of it before!"
"Eunuch Chen, we have never seen anything like this before. We are helpless!"
"Eunuch Chen..."
Chen Dong interrupted them impatiently and shouted, "Don't complain to me. If anything happens to His Majesty, you will be buried with him!"
"Now, immediately, discuss a solution. If you need someone to test the poison, I'll arrange it!"
After Yan Yunzheng got into trouble, Chen Dong immediately ordered the guards to arrest all the people in the imperial kitchen. Based on the confessions of these people, he also arrested all the people who had contact with the food.
Moreover, he also sealed off the palace, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Anyone who disobeyed his order would be executed!
He even deployed the Jinyiwei, led by Yan Shisan, into the palace to strictly guard all entrances and exits, and immediately arrest anyone behaving abnormally.
Anyone who dares to resist will be killed!
This thundering momentum made everyone realize that Yan Yunzheng was in bad situation.
The imperial doctors looked miserable as they gathered together to discuss countermeasures. Finally they decided to find another person to test for the poison.
The young eunuch died too quickly just now and they were caught off guard.
This time, the cook who made the soup was brought over, and the imperial doctors gave him some antidotes in advance.
Then the guard stuffed the food into the cook's mouth.
The cook held out a little longer than the young eunuch, but in the end he also vomited black blood and died.
The imperial doctors found the situation quite difficult and had no choice but to keep trying.
My friend dies, but I am still alive. Amitabha.
Chen Dong did not stare at the imperial doctors testing for poison, but at those who were captured. His sharp eyes swept across those terrified faces, trying to find anyone suspicious among them.
But there was only fear on these people's faces, not the excitement or calmness that Chen Dong had expected.
"Commander, we have captured three eunuchs who were spreading information outside." Yan Shisan stepped forward to report.
"Torture and find out who is behind them, and then confiscate their property!" Chen Dong said murderously.
A hint of worry flashed across Yan Shisan's eyes, "Isn't the noise a bit too loud? What if..."
Chen Dong interrupted him rudely, grabbed his collar, and said viciously: "Nothing will happen, just follow my orders!"
Those eyes were bloodshot and filled with murderous intent. Yan Shisan's heart trembled. He did not dare to refute and immediately took people to search the house.
Yan Nineteen walked over quietly and whispered, "Do you want to make plans early? I have saved some money."
Chen Dong hugged Yan Nineteen's waist, kissed her on the face, and said with a smile: "Little Nineteen now knows how to care about others."
"You are still laughing at this moment?" Yan Shijiu pushed Chen Dong away and said angrily, "His Majesty..."
Chen Dong stretched out his hand to cover Yan Shijiu's mouth and said sternly: "Your Majesty is blessed with great fortune, nothing will happen to you. Do you understand?"
Yan Shijiu smiled bitterly and nodded. In her opinion, Chen Dong was just being stubborn.
If His Majesty really passed away, Chen Dong and the Jinyiwei, as loyal dogs, would inevitably be counterattacked by the ministers. Moreover, His Majesty had no heirs, so where would the new emperor come from? Where would the Great Yan Dynasty go?
“Although you have sealed off the palace, those noble families have connections everywhere, and the news... may have been leaked.” Yan Shijiu said with a heavy face.
Chen Dong said: "I have already notified the city guards. Anyone who dares to break into the palace gate will be killed without mercy!"
Chen Dong let Yan Yunzheng fake his death, which was like trying to fish in troubled waters. He had to survive these three days, and he wanted to make the people hiding in the dark show their true colors.
After all, Yan Yunzheng was the legitimate emperor. When she was alive, he controlled the world. Those ambitious people only dared to make small moves but did not dare to really rebel.
This time, the poisoning was a test by the other party.
"tread"
He Feng hurried in, panting, "Commander Chen, General Yuwen is here with the Western Army! The city guards can't hold on!"
Chen Dong narrowed his eyes. He didn't expect that the first person to jump out would be Yuwen Qing. Is the Yuwen family so impatient?
"How many people?" Chen Dong asked in a deep voice.
He Feng said with lingering fear: "At least over ten thousand!"
Chen Dong's face darkened.
The city guards could not withstand a charge from the Western Army with their manpower!
"Guard this place well. Anyone who dares to touch His Majesty's body will be killed!" Chen Dong stared at Yan Shijiu and ordered with gritted teeth.
Yan Shijiu's heart trembled, and she nodded vigorously. She had never seen Chen Dong with such a serious and cold expression, and she couldn't help but feel infinite worry in her heart.
Chen Dong had a cold expression on his face. He brought more than a dozen Jinyiwei and He Feng to the gate of the imperial palace.
The city gate was filled with city guards, who were looking at the Western Army below with a feeling of nervousness and anxiety.
Chen Dong climbed to the top of the city wall and overlooked the Western Army below, his eyes suddenly lit up.
