Ning Jiuwei's eyes flickered as she stared at the poison that was rushing towards her crazily on the ground without moving. She saw the poisonous snake opening its big mouth, revealing the sharp teeth inside, and biting towards her.
Bai Hua on the side was so frightened that a shiver ran down his spine. He quickly lowered his sword and was about to kill the snake, but his wrist was suddenly grabbed by Ning Jiuwei. At that moment, the best opportunity was lost.
The venomous snake still did not slow down its movements, biting Ning Jiuwei's ankle viciously. The sharp pain made Ning Jiuwei frown, and he groaned, and then the embroidery needle in his hand quickly nailed the snake's head to the ground. .
"Miss Ning, you..." Bai Hua looked at this scene in shock, somewhat confused about Ning Jiuwei's intentions.
Ning Jiuwei wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. Qin Mo really wanted to kill her. The snake venom was so cruel. It took just a short time to take effect, making her dizzy.
"Burn it with fire. The hotter it burns, the better." Ning Jiuwei said softly.
Bai Hua heard Ning Jiuwei's words and nodded quickly. While supporting her, he threw the candle on the brocade quilt. The candle flame met the quilt and quickly burned.
Ning Jiuwei quickly walked out of the room with Bai Hua's support. At this time, the guards discovered the fire and rushed over. Seeing that Ning Jiuwei was injured, their faces turned pale.
Especially the captain of the guard, Zhao Xu, knew that the queen held the throne in the emperor's heart. If something happened under his protection, it would not be as simple as his own death.
"Queen, are you okay?" Zhao Xu hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
Ning Jiuwei's face was already pale at this time. She took a breath, and the cold sweat on her forehead became more and more. She slowly fell to the ground, covering her blackened ankles, and said: "Snakes, there are so many venomous snakes, I... .. ..I... .."
Before he finished speaking, Ning Jiuwei rolled his eyes and fainted. This fainting frightened Zhao Xu. Looking down at the four teeth marks on Ning Jiuwei's ankle, his eyes suddenly changed. A sharp snap.
"Go and ask for the imperial doctor quickly." Zhao Xu quickly turned his head and shouted.
Bai Hua frowned. This snake venom is extremely powerful. Now Ning Jiuwei has passed out. If he waits until the imperial doctor comes, he may not have long at all. But if he inhales the snake venom, after all, men and women are not intimate, but life and death are at stake. , if something really happened to Ning Jiuwei, wouldn't it be...
Thinking like this, Bai Hua stepped forward firmly and quickly came to Ning Jiuwei's side. He lowered his head and looked at the black mark on the white ankle, with a trace of confusion flashing in his eyes.
"Bai Hua, what are you doing?" Qin'er walked out from the inner room and saw the scene in front of her. She immediately shouted loudly. She actually looked a bit similar to Ning Jiuwei.
Bai Hua turned his head and looked at Qin'er, his eyes suddenly lit up, he stood up quickly, grabbed Qin'er, pointed at the wound on Ning Jiuwei's ankle and said: "Miss Ning was poisoned by snake venom. Now she is in danger. She needs someone." Just suck out the venom."
"Then...you mean...I...slave you to suck it?" Qin'er looked at this scene and suddenly trembled.
"You don't want to?" Bai Hua looked at Qin'er and frowned.
However, when Zhao Xu heard Bai Hua's words, he could no longer control himself. Once anything happened to Ning Jiuwei, he would definitely not be the only one who would be implicated. He said coldly: "Qin'er, if you don't save me today, The Queen, the whole family should be buried with her."
"Slave... I..." Qin'er looked at Ning Jiuwei's increasingly blue cheeks with hesitant eyes. She didn't want to die either.
Suddenly hearing Zhao Xu's words, Qin'er hesitated for a moment. Compared with herself and the whole family, her family is naturally more important. Thinking of this, Qin'er took a deep breath, squatted down slowly, and pressed her lips tremblingly. Ning Jiuwei's ankle.
Soon, Qin'er spit out a mouthful of black blood, which was even as black as ink, which showed how toxic it was. With mouthfuls of black blood, Ning Jiuwei's complexion slowly began to recover.
When Zhao Xu saw this, he breathed a sigh of relief. He turned his head and looked at the rising flames. He turned around and said, "What are you still doing? Hurry up and put out the fire."
"Also, if you found any suspicious people just now, catch them all." Zhao Xu felt very hateful in his heart. He was almost buried with him. He really hated the person who let the snake go.
And Bai Hua stood there, staring at Ning Jiuwei, and couldn't help but secretly sigh at her courage and ruthlessness. Few people could be so reckless with their lives, just to kill someone. If she really put such a mind into it, When it comes to Fourth Master, thinking of Fourth Master's deep affection, I'm afraid I would be willing to die.
"What happened? Zhao Xu, I gave Zhiyang Palace to you, and this is how you guard it?" Di Qingchen was still wearing his underwear at this time. He obviously got the news and didn't even bother to put on his clothes. , it came out.
Zhao Xu hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "I have neglected my duty. Please punish me."
Di Qingchen was too lazy to pay attention to him at this time. He quickly came to Ning Jiuwei's side and held her in his arms. He looked at her with her eyes closed and her lips turning white. Finally, his eyes were fixed on Ning Jiuwei's ankles. There were still faint cyan tooth marks.
"Imperial Physician, why hasn't the Imperial Physician arrived yet?" Di Qingchen turned around and roared.
As soon as he finished speaking, an imperial doctor carrying a medicine box came up, and the person following him was none other than Liu Chengjun. Without thinking, Di Qingchen pointed at Liu Chengjun and said: "Get over here quickly, if Jiuwei comes out If something happens, your Liu family will be buried with you."
After hearing this, Liu Chengjun came to Ning Jiuwei's side without saying a word, carefully felt the pulse, looked at the wound, and once again raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the poison in the Queen's body has been sucked out in time. Come out, as long as you take some detoxifying medicine, you'll be fine."
After hearing Liu Chengjun's words, Di Qingchen breathed a sigh of relief, then turned his eyes to Xiaoqin, who looked a little pale, and said, "You have done a good job in protecting the Lord. I will reward you with a handful of pearls and a hundred taels of gold today. As for you, All the family members can be freed from slavery."
"My slave, thank you, Your Majesty." Xiaoqin hurriedly knelt on the ground and said.
Seeing this, Liu Chengjun on the side put his hand on Xiaoqin's pulse and said, "It doesn't matter. You can also take some detoxifying medicine. You will be fine in a few days. There is no need to worry."
Hearing Liu Chengjun's words, Xiaoqin raised her head in surprise, her eyes filled with gratitude. She was really scared to death and thought she would die from now on.
Di Qingchen looked at the extinguished fire, his eyes were very sharp, and he said: "Check it for me. Every one found will be counted. No one involved in this matter today can be missed."
"I understand, I will do it now." Zhao Xu's eyes showed solemnity when he heard Di Qingchen's words. He turned around and left Zhiyang Palace.
