Chapter 29 Looking for the Antidote
One look at my wounds showed that I was injured by the weapons of the Rong tribe. They would sprinkle some of their weapons with deadly poison. People who were stabbed by the sword would think it was just an ordinary wound and would just stop the bleeding first.
After half a month, the poison will take effect and the person will die. This poison is colorless and tasteless, and the wound will be no different from an ordinary wound at the beginning. However, the poison will take effect three days after being poisoned.
Mr. Chen treated my wound briefly, and then opened my mouth to feed me a pill to slow down the penetration of the drug. Then he motioned for Wen Yichen to go to the side with him, as he had something important to discuss.
Mr. Chen is a well-known doctor in Yecheng, and most people cannot afford to invite him.
When Wen Yichen was young, he lived here and was his neighbor. Wen Yichen's mother, Li Fei, was also a kind person who would share any food she had with her neighbors.
Once Wen Yichen had a high fever, and Concubine Li called all the famous doctors in Yecheng to see him. After examining him, the doctors just shook their heads and said nothing.
Wen Yichen's mother was very depressed at the time. By chance, she ran into Mr. Chen who had just returned from the capital. Mr. Chen immediately went to see Wen Yichen and found that he was poisoned.
However, this poison is not common and ordinary people can hardly see it. Mr. Chen immediately fed Wen Yichen the antidote, and that was it.
Before this, Mr. Chen had always been the unknown doctor. He saw patients based on fate. Except for those around him, basically no one knew where he lived.
After this incident, Wen Yichen also knew where Mr. Chen lived. After he recovered from his illness, Wen Yichen studied with Mr. Chen for a period of time.
When he was eight or nine years old, the imperial edict came down, allowing Wen Yichen to return to Beijing, and Wen Yichen said goodbye to Mr. Chen.
Mr. Chen knew that he would meet Wen Yichen again, so he left his permanent address in Yecheng so that he could find it if needed.
After Wen Yichen found out that I was injured, he knew that it was impossible for the people of the Rong tribe to simply want to stab him, so he brought me here just in case.
Mr. Chen called Wen Yichen to sit in the study and said, "Chen'er, long time no see. The sword that this injured woman was hit by is not as simple as it seems. The people of the Rong tribe poisoned it. If the antidote is not found, she may die within half a month."
Wen Yichen immediately knelt in front of Mr. Chen and said, "Master, please save her. She blocked the sword to save me. Since I was injured, I naturally had to save her. Besides, she is the lucky star of the Dayun Dynasty. If she died and the news spread, I'm afraid the world would be in chaos!"
Mr. Chen also knew what my identity as a lucky star meant. It’s not that he didn’t want to save me, but he was afraid that he was willing but unable.
Mr. Chen sighed and said, "Chen'er, it's not that Master doesn't want to save you. Master really doesn't have an antidote for this poison. Only the people of the Rong tribe have the antidote. This is a special poison they made. I have also studied it for many years, but still haven't found the antidote for this poison. For now, I'm afraid the only way is to negotiate with the people of the Rong tribe!"
Wen Yichen heard this and squatted with his hands on his head. He didn't expect that this sword would be so dangerous. The one who was injured was the lucky star of Dayun Dynasty. He couldn't just watch me die, otherwise the whole court would be in turmoil.
After Mr. Chen treated me, I gradually came to myself, but the tearing pain in my back made me gasp.
Wen Yichen and Mr. Chen planned to keep it a secret from me and wait until I felt better before telling me. They also wanted to take this opportunity to find an antidote for me.
When the two people walked into the room, I was already awake, lying on the bed with a pale face. When I saw them coming in, I immediately forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. It's just a little painful. There's nothing to worry about."
Wen Yichen felt mixed emotions when he saw me like this. He thought that if I knew the truth, I probably wouldn't be able to laugh like that.
Li Wenxian came over with Xiaotao. Xiaotao saw that I woke up and jumped on me happily. My body was already in pain, and when she jumped on me like this, I gasped.
The four people were all looking at me in the room. I instantly felt a little awkward, so I said, "You guys haven't eaten yet after all this time, right? How about we go eat first? You don't have to stay here and watch over me."
Li Wenxian looked at Wen Yichen and knew that he was worried. He wanted to ask, so he pulled Wen Yichen and said, "Let's go eat first. Only when we are full can we have the strength to take care of the patients. Otherwise, these patients will not recover, and the people we are taking care of will fall down again."
Wen Yichen knew this problem, and he had come to Yecheng to see Mr. Chen, but he hadn't invited him to dinner yet. So he said, "Well, let's go eat first. What do you want to eat? I'll ask the restaurant to prepare it and bring it to you? Or I'll go buy it for you?"
I shook my head, not wanting to eat anything. Wen Yichen knew I would never tell him what I wanted to eat, so he didn't ask any more questions.
They found a restaurant and booked a private room. Several people were in the room, no one was talking, and the atmosphere was a little solemn.
It was Wen Yichen who reacted first. He immediately asked the servants to pack some porridge, chicken soup and fish soup and send them to me.
Li Wenxian immediately joked: "When did our brother Chen become so caring? It seems that his heart has been taken away by the one on the hospital bed."
Wen Yichen glared at him fiercely and said, "If you don't speak, no one can think you are dumb. You might as well not say anything."
Li Wenxian did not answer the question, but just asked: "Is the woman's injury not very good?"
Mr. Chen nodded and said, "It's more than not good. It's fatal. If we don't go out and find an antidote, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive for too long."
Li Wenxian was also surprised after hearing this. He did not expect the situation to be worse than he imagined, and for a moment he did not know how to persuade them.
Wen Yichen spoke first: "Will the people of the Rong tribe put this kind of poison on all their weapons?"
Li Wenxian was familiar with this kind of thing. Li Wenxian said: "How is this possible? What if two people are sparring with each other and accidentally hurt each other, then there is no chance of survival? This kind of poison is naturally only in the weapons of generals and above. Or people who assassinate the enemy will carry this kind of weapon."
Mr. Chen also agreed: "That's right. If the weapons of the Rong tribe have it, then it will be easy to find the antidote. On the contrary, there are not many people who have this kind of poisonous weapons, so the antidote will naturally be more difficult to find."
Wen Yichen was also in a dilemma at this time. Now the Rong tribe and Dayun Dynasty were already at war with each other, and the Rong tribe was even less likely to be willing to take out the antidote to save people. He couldn't find a good solution for a while.
Li Wenxian said at this time: "Doesn't our Dayun Dynasty have a princess who is getting married? What if we ask the princess to ask for the antidote? Will it work?"
Wen Yichen shook his head and said, "If they cared about our princess' marriage, then this situation would not have happened. They don't even care about the princess, or even the emperor of the Dayun Dynasty. How could they possibly ask for the antidote?"
Mr. Chen continued to analyze: "Now that the two countries are at war, it is natural that a winner must be decided. But no one knows how long the war will last. But that woman can't wait any longer. We can only take other measures."
Li Wenxian suddenly said: "Now the internal conflicts of the Rong tribe are also serious. Perhaps we can start from here? The people of the Rong tribe may not all want to stay in the Rong tribe. The Rong tribe itself is barbaric and has oppressed too many people. And now the leader of the Rong tribe is already terminally ill, and his sons are also fighting for power."
Wen Yichen didn't expect such a scene to happen, but few people knew that the leader of the Rong tribe was already sick, so how did Li Wenxian know about it?
Li Wenxian looked at the doubts flashing in Wen Yichen and Mr. Chen's eyes, and immediately said: "This matter will definitely not be made public, but I naturally have my own ways, and this matter is absolutely true. There is no need for me to lie to you."
Wen Yichen actually believed in Li Wenxian unconditionally, because although Li Wenxian was sometimes imperfect, he truly loved his country.
And when he was in trouble, Li Wenxian would come out to help him. Li Wenxian didn't understand why Wen Yichen left without saying goodbye, so he hated him a little. But in the face of national hatred, everyone is a family, so how could he lie to his own family?
Mr. Chen sighed and said, "I am just a doctor. The only thing I can do in this matter is to use medicine to prevent Miss Luo from being infected so quickly. But the real solution still requires finding an antidote. When the poison takes effect, all organs will be in great pain, and Miss Luo may not be able to bear the pain."
Several people looked at each other. Although there were delicious dishes on the table, no one was in the mood to eat anymore. They just ate a little to fill their stomachs and left.
I looked at the porridge and chicken soup that were sent to me, and I didn't want to drink them at first. But my stomach was growling, so I drank all the chicken soup. I also found some ginseng from my carry-on luggage and asked Xiaotao to make ginseng soup for me, thinking that I could get better quickly after eating it, and I didn't want everyone to be slowed down because of her.
Xiao Tao had just taken out the top-quality 100-year-old ginseng from the capital and was about to make soup with it. When Mr. Chen saw this, he immediately stopped her and asked, "Are you going to make soup with this ginseng?"
Xiao Tao nodded and said, "Yes, this ginseng is very tonic. Our young lady's illness will be cured quickly after eating it."
Mr. Chen immediately snatched the ginseng from Xiao Tao's hand and said, "Miss Luo is weak now, so it's not suitable for her to take a big tonic. If she does, there will probably be problems."
Xiao Tao and I were both confused. Shouldn't a weak body be nourished? But why did Mr. Chen react so strongly when I asked him to eat it? Could it be that he wanted to covet my ginseng?
Xiao Tao wanted to go forward to ask for it back, but Mr. Chen had already put the ginseng away.
My body is very weak. If I take ginseng to replenish my body, it may not replenish my body but make the poison enter my body. But Mr. Chen dare not say it.
I asked Xiaotao to secretly follow Mr. Chen to see what he was up to.
Xiao Tao quietly followed Mr. Chen to the study, where Li Wenxian was also.
Li Wenxian immediately said: "I have a way to find the antidote. But that person has a condition."
Wen Yichen asked curiously: "Who are you looking for? Where did you get the information? What does he want?"
Li Wenxian said: "Recently, I asked my men to inquire about it. Recently, the sons of the leader of the Rong tribe all want to become the new leader, and everyone is fighting secretly. So I asked my men to ask them about the antidote. The person who asked happened to be the fourth son of the leader, and he wanted to become the leader very much. He said that he could provide the antidote, but he needed us to help him when they seize the throne."
Wen Yichen immediately said: "Is what he said true? Can we contact him? Maybe we need to meet."
Li Wenxian said: "There is still a way to meet him. But we need to go there alone, which is quite dangerous."
Wen Yichen said very firmly: "I have to go no matter how dangerous it is. After all, Luo Qingqing was the first one to block the sword for me without fear of death. I owe her this. So I should go and meet him. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up."
Li Wenxian smiled bitterly and said, "You are doing this for her. You really don't want to live anymore. Is it worth it?"
Wen Yichen said more firmly: "It's worth it. If she hadn't blocked the sword for me, I would have gone without hesitation. She is not only herself, but also the hope of the people of the entire Dayun Dynasty. I can't let her get hurt."
