440, the strong poison
The maids left, leaving only King Li and Gu Qianxue in the room.
Li Wang first lifted the quilt covering Gu Qianxue's body, grabbed his wrist, took his pulse carefully, and then put the hand back.
So, why did King Li send all the maids out? The reason is that he wants to wake up Gu Qianxue, so how to wake it up? It is to stimulate the most painful points.
The most painful acupoint on the human body is called Yongquan acupoint. It is in the center of the sole of the foot. In Nanyue Kingdom, a woman's foot is a private part just like her body. It is humiliating to be peeped at or touched by a man in public. Considering this, King Li sent the maid lay off.
With his left hand pinching his slender ankle, the index finger of his right finger accumulated internal strength, and then he slammed the Yongquan acupoint hard—followed by Gu Qianxue's subconscious scream.
The maids outside the door naturally heard Princess Qianxue's cry, but no one dared to enter.
Gu Qianxue, who was in severe pain, was forced to wake up. She barely opened Qianjinzhong's eyelids, and when she saw King Li pinching her ankle, she understood everything. The sudden heat and cold all over her body made her very uncomfortable, she gritted her teeth and said, "Gong... Ling Yan, I'm already like this, you...don't let me go?"
Seeing the effect, King Li covered her feet again with the quilt, leaned down, frowned, and stared angrily, "Do you know what that snake is called?"
Gu Qianxue was taken aback. It turned out that King Li used this vicious trick to force her to wake up. He asked this question, "The golden flower with a green body is called a bone-selling snake." Afterwards, she briefly described everything she experienced on the day she was victimized. During these two minutes, I was tossed again by the heat and the cold, and I was sweating profusely.
Li Wang listened quietly, took out his pure black handkerchief, and wiped Gu Qianxue's sweat.
On the black handkerchief was the unique incense of King Li, which was faint and faintly visible, but it was extremely refreshing. I don't know whether it was because of the shivering from staying beside King Li or because of the refreshing fragrance, Gu Qianxue felt that her mind was much lighter .
"Gong Lingyan, promise me one thing?" He asked softly.
"Speak." Li Wang's voice was gentler than he thought, but at this moment, no one cared about his voice anymore.
"If I really die, can you help me... protect my mother?" After experiencing a burst of heat again, the feeling was like being roasted alive, but seeing King Li struggling, Gu Qianxue was still angry from the heart , "I cured Concubine Qin and offended the Empress because of it, and my mother Zhao is pregnant with Liujia, and Aunt Pei is sinister and vicious. Can't you help me once for Concubine Qin's sake?"
Seeing that Gu Qianxue's face turned red and then pale, even if Gu Qianxue didn't beg him, Li Wang would still save the Zhao family, but... "This king looks like the kind of meddlesome person? Heh," withdrew the veil , but seeing Gu Qianxue's angry appearance, she finally couldn't hold it back, and lowered her voice softly, "For the sake of Mrs. Zhao, you have to grit your teeth and hold on. This king will go to Su Lingxiao to find a way. Remember, you must hold on! Otherwise , this king killed the Zhao family."
After speaking, without waiting for Gu Qianxue's reaction, King Li turned and left.
Gu Qianxue lay on the bed, pondering over Li Wang's words, and then couldn't help laughing, "That guy Gong Lingyu is obviously helping me, but the dog's mouth is afraid... never can spit out ivory..." While muttering to himself, he fell into a coma again.
The palace maids entered one after another and took good care of her, without mentioning it.
No name.
When King Li arrived, Su Lingxiao was writing at the desk.
"Ling Xiao, with your eyes and ears, you should know what happened in the palace, right?" King Li cut to the chase.
Su Lingxiao seemed to be writing a prescription. When the two finished speaking, he just finished the last word and raised his pen.
"The bone selling snake is the most poisonous snake in the world, not because of its strong poison, but because of its insidious poison. Do you know where its insidiousness lies?" Su Lingxiao raised his eyes and looked at King Li.
King Li was shocked, "You even know the name of the bone-selling snake, Su Lingxiao, how many eyeliners have you planted in Nanyue Palace?" In the hands of a foreigner, he is still frightened.
Su Lingxiao raised her pale lips, "Don't worry, for you, I will never take action against Nanyue Kingdom."
Li Wang frowned, but seeing Su Lingxiao's frail body and extremely poor mental state, he still sighed, "No matter what, take care of your body first. Are you writing the antidote for the bone snake?"
Su Lingxiao put down the pen, and handed over the wet paper, "No, this is just a very effective prescription for detoxification, but it can't cure the poison of the bone snake, at most it can delay its life." Seeing that King Li's face was livid, Su Lingxiao Youyou sighed, "Don't worry too much about Princess Qianxue's poison, if she survives, she has been detoxified successfully; if she hasn't detoxified at this time, even gods will descend to earth, and they won't be able to save her life."
"Ling Xiao, speak clearly." King Li said anxiously.
Su Lingxiao, who was sitting on the chair, looked up at King Li, and was stunned for a long while, "It seems that your heart is moved."
"..." Li Wang was slightly embarrassed, he hesitated to speak.
Su Lingxiao lowered her eyes, "I really envy you for having a healthy body and a beloved woman."
King Li couldn't bear to see his best friend look so disappointed, "Don't you also have..."
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Su Lingxiao, "It's a pity that I don't have a healthy body. The more I love someone, the more I want to protect her for the rest of my life. Since I can't protect her for the rest of my life, it's better to entrust her to someone I can trust." Man, don't you think so?"
King Li was fighting in his heart, "Ling Xiao, your words are too biased, I..."
"Let's talk about the bone-burning snake's venom," Su Lingxiao interrupted at the right time, and he didn't know whether it was because he was anxious to move on to the next topic, or because he couldn't bear to see his best friend in trouble, "Why do you say that the bone-selling snake's venom is the strongest snake venom in the world? It's not the other Death from an instant onset, on the contrary, it is a chronic poison. You have seen the poison of the concubine Qin. The most terrible poison is not to kill all at once, but to make life worse than death. What is bone destruction? It is because, this This kind of snake venom will not kill you immediately, but will slowly fester until you die, and when the festering reaches the end, there will not even be any bones left, so the bones will be destroyed."
For the first time, with fear in his eyes, King Li swallowed hard, "What about the antidote? Is there no antidote for the venom of the bone-killing snake?"
"Of course there is an antidote, but the antidote is the snake blood and snake gall of the first snake when poisoned. This is another reason why I said that its poison is the most powerful. Even if a person is bitten by many bone-killing snakes successively , or the antidote is only the first snake blood and snake gall, and there is absolutely no second antidote." Su Lingxiao said.
King Li closed his eyes, recalling the scene when he found Gu Qianxue in the dry well, thought of the snake body without a snake head and Gu Qianxue's bloody face, slowly opened his eyes, "If I'm not wrong, the snake The blood should have been drunk by Gu Qianxue."
