Reborn, meet you again!
Chapter 101 Pyracantha Poison
The news from the court soon reached Song Wan's ears.
Seeing that the matter was finally settled, Song Wan finally felt a little relieved.
Although the last meeting with Jun Jiuchen was not pleasant, fortunately he still kept his word.
Then, she waited for news from Jun Jiuchen with peace of mind, waiting for him to go with her to find her father to discuss the matter.
Song Wan didn't have to wait too long before she received a letter from the Regent's Palace.
Song Wan put down the medical book in his hand, said hello to Jiang Zheng and Liu, and then got up and went to the Regent's Palace.
When she saw Jun Jiuchen again, Song Wan thought the situation would be somewhat awkward, but she found that Jun Jiuchen had put on his black ghost mask again, and the look in his eyes when he looked at her seemed to have returned to normal.
When talking to her, he was very businesslike.
If it weren't for the remaining mark on his neck, it would seem as if nothing had happened that day.
Although she was still dissatisfied and doubtful about his behavior last time, she had to discuss the matter with him calmly since they were now under each other's roof and it was something she had worked so hard to achieve.
"Your Highness, what you mean is that you will not go to the Prime Minister's residence, and you want me to convey your intention to Prime Minister Song on your behalf?"
Jun Jiuchen's eyes were calm.
"Yes, doesn't Miss Jiang want to repay the favor?"
"Although I handed this matter over to Song Yi as agreed, I have said before that this is just an opportunity."
"If you want me and Your Majesty to use him again, he must first show some real ability and let me see if he can really check and balance the court for Your Majesty. Otherwise... it will be nothing more than a waste of time."
"It's just right that Miss Jiang will go on my behalf. If he can do what I just said, I will meet him."
Song Wan nodded slightly when she heard this.
"I understand."
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. When I give Madam Song acupuncture tomorrow, I will convey your thoughts to Prime Minister Song."
Although the problem Jun Jiuchen just raised was not easy to solve, her father still had that trump card in his hand, and she believed that it would not be difficult for her father to do it.
Then she seemed to have thought of something and continued.
"By the way, regarding the Pyracantha poison in His Majesty's body, I have some questions for you."
Upon hearing this, Jun Jiuchen seemed unwilling to stay here any longer. He suddenly stood up, and there was still no trace of extra emotion in his voice.
"Suifeng knows the king's condition best. You can ask him."
"Suifeng, send Miss Jiang out."
Then, he turned and left without any hesitation.
He thought about Shangguan Yu's words. If the person in front of him was really not Song Wan, then his dissolute behavior towards her that day was indeed excessive.
But he really couldn't convince himself to treat her as the real Jiang Wanqiao.
So for now, he could only keep some distance from her.
To prevent myself from doing something as crazy as that day...
Seeing him like this, Song Wan didn't say much. She just replied "yes" and walked out with Suifeng.
Sui Feng, however, saw that he finally had the opportunity to know what the prince's old illness was, and without waiting for Song Wan to speak, he took the initiative to ask with some anxiety.
"Miss Jiang, last time you mentioned that the prince's old illness was poisoning. What exactly is going on?"
He clearly remembered that Miss Jiang had clearly said last time that it was "fire poison" or something.
She also said that only she could save the prince.
He has always kept this matter in mind.
Song Wan just walked forward slowly and asked.
"When the prince's old illness flares up, does his body temperature rise dramatically for no apparent reason? Occasionally, his skin turns red as if burned by the scorching sun, and he even experiences hallucinations?"
Suifeng immediately nodded affirmatively.
"What Miss Jiang said is absolutely correct."
"My prince's old illness didn't occur often in the beginning. When it did, it was just like a high fever caused by a cold. The doctors couldn't find the cause, so they just treated the fever. Fortunately, over the years, it hasn't caused any major problems."
"Until a few days ago when he returned to the capital, the prince was troubled by nightmares and soaked in cold water every night. One day, when the nightmare recurred, he actually fainted, still in the palace."
"And it's just as Miss Jiang said, I'm hallucinating..."
"The palace physician examined the prince but couldn't explain what had happened. He simply thought the prince had a fever and was confused. After three or four days of treatment, he recovered. However, it still made people feel uneasy.
"I didn't expect...it was poison?"
When Song Wan heard him say this, she knew that Jun Jiuchen's poison was as serious as she had thought. This was why his body temperature was slightly higher than that of others even when he was not sick.
But... nightmare?
How could he, with such a bad reputation and someone whom common people could use to stop children from crying, also be troubled by nightmares?
It's surprisingly tight.
"That's right, Your Highness, these symptoms are indeed signs of being poisoned by Pyracantha."
"Furthermore, judging by his current condition, this poison has been lurking in his body for years. Recently, as you said, it's probably because he's been soaking in cold water every night, exposed to extreme environments, that it's likely to have invaded his internal organs."
Suifeng was shocked when he heard this. No wonder the prince's condition seemed to have worsened after returning to the capital. It turned out to be caused by the cold.
And more importantly.
Someone actually poisoned the prince!
"Miss Jiang, is this 'firethorn poison' you're talking about a real poison? Does it need to be taken orally? What methods are usually used to successfully administer it?"
Song Wan knew that Suifeng suspected that someone had poisoned Jun Jiuchen, so she explained.
"Pyracantha is not the common poison we see. It is a plant that is bright red and covered with sharp teeth."
"If those sharp teeth pierce the skin, the toxin will remain in the body."
"However... if you're just accidentally stung by some sharp teeth, the venom isn't that strong and can be quickly eliminated from the body. To reach the level of poisoning, it would have to be widespread and prolonged, and that would take a very long time."
"So, under normal circumstances, no one would resort to such troublesome means to poison someone."
Suifeng listened to Song Wan's words and immediately understood.
If the situation Miss Jiang just described was to be achieved, that person must have already controlled the prince and made him unable to resist.
If that were the case, that person could have just killed the prince instead of resorting to such troublesome means of poisoning him.
Or is it a chronic poison with such a long incubation period...
If the prince had not been poisoned during this period of time, his condition would probably not have become so serious so quickly.
"Then Miss Jiang, have you found a way to detoxify the prince?"
Song Wan nodded without hesitation.
"Although this poison is rare, it's not difficult to cure. However, some of the herbs used to cure it are special and uncommon, so it takes some time to prepare."
"Fortunately, our Jiang family started out in the medicinal herb business. We have some tricks up our sleeves, so it shouldn't take long to collect them all."
"Once I have prepared all the herbs, Your Highness, take regular baths with the herbs, supplemented with acupuncture. In about half a year, all the toxins will be slowly expelled from your body."
Suifeng finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the poison could really be cured.
"Great!"
"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Jiang!"
Seeing his expression, Luoluo, who was standing by, couldn't help but retort in annoyance.
"Now you know how to thank my young lady."
"Last time, your prince got sick and bullied my young lady. Why didn't you come to his aid? Instead, you dragged me away!"
Suifeng glanced at Song Wan awkwardly upon hearing this.
Song Wan didn't speak for him.
"That's true."
Suifeng: ...
