Her face and body were covered with scars. When she jumped off the cliff, although she landed on the first flat ground, she lost her balance and rolled all the way down. She stopped on the next flat ground and quickly hid under a protruding rock.
She dared to show up only after the two guards left. Fortunately, the sunlight was very good in that place, allowing her to untie the ropes smoothly and wait for Xiao Tuo to rescue her.
"Does it hurt?" he asked in a hoarse voice with a low and alluring tone. His black eyes were like two deep pools, reflecting her appearance.
Zi'an shook his head, "No!" In fact, it really didn't hurt. How could someone who had been in the special agent team be knocked down by such a minor skin injury
Murong Jie's fingers fell on a larger wound on her neck. His fingertips were almost cold and his movements were trembling slightly. He used all his strength to raise his hand.
Zi'an grabbed his hand, gently put it down, and said, "It's better than anything else that your Majesty wakes up. Many people are worried about you."
Murong Jie's lips curled up slightly, with a gentle smile, but a chill gradually formed in his eyes, "A lot of people are worried about me?"
He seemed to be asking, but also seemed to be being sarcastic.
Zi'an raised his eyes suspiciously, and when he saw him slowly close his eyes, he stopped asking and reached out to check his temperature, and found that he was still having a fever.
"I'm going to help you treat your wound again. Please bear with the pain." Zi'an unbuttoned his clothes and said softly.
Murong Jie suddenly opened his eyes, "Has anyone made things difficult for you these past two days?"
Zi'an didn't stop his hand, and he said without raising his eyes: "No."
Murong Jie asked: "Where did all these injuries come from?"
"I was chased by a dog and fell!"
"… "
Xiao Tuo came in with food. Seeing Murong Jie wake up, he quickly put the food on the table and walked over quickly, "Awake?"
He really couldn't believe it. When he was taken away, his whole body was cold, as if he was really dead.
Today, Xia Zian was found, and Xia Zian begged him to take him out no matter what and not to let him stay in the palace.
He first found a good place and then entered the city, found his confidant, and then contacted Murong Jie's guards. Just like that, in the chaos of the palace, Murong Jie was taken away by him.
"You're not going to die. You must be a little disappointed, right?" Murong Jie glanced at him sideways and said in a cold tone.
Xiao Tuo nodded, "I am a little disappointed, but I am only disappointed that you were hurt so badly by Master Liang!"
Zi'an paused. Liang Taifu? Not the King of Liang? Then what about her previous misunderstanding of the King of Liang...
Well, ignorance is not a crime, she forgives herself
Murong Jie said calmly: "If you walk too much on the night road, you will always encounter ghosts. It's my fault that I underestimated him."
When he said this, there was a strange coldness in his voice. Xiao Tuo couldn't sense it, but Zi'an did.
The wound was still inflamed and the previous medicine powder had been washed away. Fortunately, Zi'an had wiped it a little with a handkerchief before.
After re-disinfecting and applying medicine, Zian began to study the medicine powder on the handkerchief.
This medicinal powder is very fine and smells like Panax notoginseng. It should be mixed with Panax notoginseng powder. Panax notoginseng is a miraculous medicine for healing wounds, but it is not used on wounds. Instead, it is taken directly orally.
"What are you doing? Eat first and then do it." Xiao Tuo came over and said when he saw her concentrating on fiddling with the handkerchief under the lamp.
Zi'an said, "These are the powders I applied from the prince's wounds. I suspect that it was this powder that made the prince's injuries worse and inflamed."
Xiao Tuo exclaimed, "Is that the powder that the charlatan Tao De applied to Ajie?"
"Tode?" After hearing these words, Murong Jie opened his cold eyes and looked at Xiao Tuo.
Xiao Tuo said: "You didn't know it in your coma, the concubine called a Taoist priest named Tao De to treat your injuries, and applied this powder on your wounds. After that, your condition took a turn for the worse."
Zi'an said, "His condition has never been good. But after applying this powder, the wound became inflamed and festered within two hours. So I suspect this powder is poisonous."
"Todd!" Murong Jie whispered the name softly, "A man of moral values, eh?"
"Yes, you knew that too?" Xiao Tuo looked at him in surprise. "I later investigated this person and found that he had been in close contact with the Concubine Dowager. This person has evil intentions. The Concubine Dowager was deceived by him this time."
Murong Jie didn't say anything, but his face was very gloomy.
Zi'an was only looking at the powder, not at him. Instead, Xiao Tuo looked at Murong Jie, and when he saw that his expression suddenly turned ugly, he asked, "What's wrong? Does the wound hurt?"
Murong Jie exhaled from his chest, then took another deep breath, and then said calmly: "It's okay, I'm a little sleepy."
"You go to sleep. I made some soup for you. I'll wake you up and drink it later." Xiao Tuo said. He thought he would laugh at him for being a general and becoming a cook. Unexpectedly, he just closed his eyes gently without saying a word of teasing.
"Looks like you're really sleepy." Seeing this, Xiao Tuo tiptoed to take the food out, then said to Zi'an, "Let's go out to eat."
Zi'an took the handkerchief and walked into the kitchen, threw it into the stove where there was still some fire, washed his hands, and then came in to eat.
"You threw away the handkerchief? Have you found out what it was?" Xiao Tuo asked.
"The water lily is a poisonous plant." Zi'an didn't say too much in detail, but his expression changed slightly.
At first, she just guessed that the powder given by the Taoist was the mineral elements used by the Taoist to make elixirs, but she didn't expect it to be the dripping lotus. The dripping lotus is poisonous, which can cause skin ulcers at the mildest and be fatal at the worst. Murong Jie was so seriously injured, and if the dripping lotus was penetrated into the wound, it would cause skin ulcers and inflammation, and it would be fatal after entering the blood.
Todd didn't dare to do this. If he wanted to gain the trust of the Concubine Dowager, he would only use some elixirs, which would cause some harm but not death. Because he didn't dare to murder the regent of the current dynasty, how many heads would be enough for him to lose
Someone ordered him!
Zi'an didn't guess who it was. She had her suspicions in her mind, but she wasn't sure.
Because, this is ridiculous.
She was too hungry to eat anything. She ate a few bites and drank some soup, then stopped.
Seeing that she was not eating, Xiao Tuo also stopped and asked, "The prince will get better, right?"
Zi'an looked up at him, "The problem of excessive blood loss has been solved to some extent, but the wound is seriously inflamed. He will continue to have a high fever tonight. I'll write a list and you go buy some medicine for me."
"Is it serious?" Xiao Tuo thought he would be fine once he woke up, but he didn't expect that he was still in danger.
"After two days, his wound started to fester. I had to clean the pus out of it to prevent it from getting deeply infected. The wound also needed to be treated again."
She didn't say directly whether it was serious or not. In fact, she had no idea because she didn't even have disinfectant and could only use some folk remedies to disinfect and reduce inflammation.
After she finished writing, she handed it to Xiao Tuo, who took it and looked at it. "Old lime, honeysuckle, forsythia, Panax notoginseng, white medicine, houttuynia root, coptis root... This thirty kilograms of Shaodao, what are you going to do with it?"
"drink!"
Zi'an was still writing. No, this time she was not writing but drawing. She drew several kinds of knives and indicated the thickness. She had to make a set of scalpels to use when necessary.
It would be best to give this task to Xiao Tuo. A military general can always find the most skilled weapons master.
