Silent Lover 2 (Tanhua) - Chap 36
Chapter 36 Return him to me
Song Qing stared at Song Liqing closely. Although he pretended to be relaxed, how could he hide the darkness in his eyes and the listlessness in his spirit?
He knew that Song Liqing was used to humiliation, and he had never said a single grievance in front of him since he was a child.
Jun Qiyu has too much prejudice against him, how can she be nice to him?
“Really? Let Dad see you.”
Song Qing only lightly pinched his arm, and then his heart sank. Song Liqing’s arm was so thin that Song Qing could hold it with one hand. Great!
Song Qing, who had been a soldier all his life, suddenly felt so distressed that tears filled his eyes.
“Li Qing…are you sick? Huh? Why are you so thin?”
Song Qing asked anxiously, for fear that he might not tell the truth.
Song Liqing could only cover up half truth and half falsehood.
“I was sick, but I’m all right now, Dad…”
“etc!”
Song Qing grabbed his hand that had been hidden in his sleeve robe.
When Song Qing held Song Liqing’s hand and looked carefully, the peeling nails and scabbed wounds made Song Qing feel as if someone had whipped him in the heart.
“This…how did you do this? Is…the prince?”
“No! I accidentally hurt it.”
Song Liqing denied it, but couldn’t hide his guilt.
Song Qing understood.
“Li Qing…you committed yourself to be a crown princess for your father and for the Song family’s lintel. Everyone thought you climbed a branch and became a phoenix, but you entered the Qilin Mansion and didn’t have a good day, right? I just want to let you go.” I thought His Highness the Crown Prince would have a day to clear up the misunderstanding with you, but I didn’t expect this kind of waste in return! Dad just wants you to say a word, will you go home with me?”
Song Liqing saw his solemn expression, he would rather disobey the emperor.
But what about going home by yourself?
He was already dying!
For the short time left, do you have to pay the whole family again?
“Father, you must not be impulsive… I am already Qiyu’s person, whether it is a disaster or a blessing, I will only have him in this life.”
Song Qing looked at him and shook his head: “You… this is definitely not what you mean.”
Song Liqing was so ashamed that she buried her head very low, only ashamed and right.
“You…you just think that I am too obsessed and raised an unfilial son.”
Song Qing raised his hand, but no matter how hard he was able to fight, he finally dropped it powerlessly.
“When I first brought you home, you were as thin as you are now, in such a small ball, you were obviously pale and emaciated from hunger, and you hid half of the food for you under the pillow, always worrying that there would be no next meal, so Little children always have worries hidden in their hearts, and your little daddy is always worried that you will not grow up, hehe, now you have finally grown up and won the gold medal… Li Qing, you are too sensible.”
After finishing speaking, Song Qing resolutely stood in front of Jun Qiyu.
“His Royal Highness.”
Jun Qiyu watched their father and son whispering, and seeing Song Qing’s angry look, it was probably Song Liqing who complained and provoked.
“What advice does the general have?”
Song Qing looked directly at him, and asked: “Did Li Qing enter the Qilin Mansion, did he do something against Zude? Or did he commit some unforgivable mistake? Your Highness wants to spoil him until he’s skinny and scarred?”
“General Song is raising a teacher to ask a crime?” Jun Qiyu glanced at Song Liqing, and said, “It’s normal for people to be born, old, sick and die. Is it possible that Song Liqing’s illness is also to blame? I invited the imperial doctor of the Quantai Hospital, I told them to do their best to heal them, and now they are cured… How did Song Liqing sue you, I was wronged!”
“Dare to ask, where is His Highness when Li Qing is sick?”
“I’m here…” Jun Qiyu paused, “I didn’t accompany him, but I sent several servants to take care of him, and the imperial physician never left.”
“He’s your pillow! He’s a matter of life and death, shouldn’t you take care of him yourself?” Song Qing said angrily.
Jun Qiyu turned cold, and said: “It’s not that General Song doesn’t know about Pei Xingxu’s public proposal, this is a slap in the face to me! He and Pei Xingxu have done such a thing, I am the prince of Jingguo, and I am the prince of Jingguo. The right to weather is gone for a few days?!”
Song Qing didn’t understand what was going on, and was speechless, only his chest heaved with anger.
“Okay…Okay, Your Highness is the prince, everything is correct.”
Jun Qiyu snorted.
“General Song has taken good care of me in the Western Regions, and he has a teacher-student relationship. For the sake of the general, I didn’t let his scandals spread.”
Song Qing waved her hand dejectedly.
“Forget it, if Your Highness has so much dissatisfaction with Li Qing, then you can return him to me…”
boom–
A loud noise interrupted Song Qing’s words, and also interrupted the dancing and music. Everyone looked in the same direction in unison. Just now, Emperor Xuan, who was drinking and having fun, was lying on the desk, silently, two feet away. The wine fell to the ground.
Jun Qiyu was startled for a blink of an eye, and was the first to react.
“Father!”
Jun Qiyu helped Emperor Xuan up, saw the blood spit out from his mouth, and his mind went blank.
In Jun Qiyu’s mind, the majestic Xuandi will always be the Ninth Five-Year Supreme with perseverance, not to mention vomiting blood and coma, even getting sick is rare.
Jun Qiyu rebelled because he felt that he would never be able to surpass the mountain of Emperor Xuan.
Emperor Xuan was seriously injured and unconscious at the Longevity Festival banquet! The Hall of Supreme Harmony suddenly became a mess, eunuchs and maids shouted and shouted.
“There are assassins!”
“Escort!”
Emperor Xuan’s personal guards had already rushed in, surrounding everyone with knives.
Jun Qiyu probed Emperor Xuan’s wrist, his pulse was weak, and he scanned the crowd warily.
“Quickly pass on the imperial doctor!” Jun Qiyu ordered, “Everyone in the Hall of Supreme Harmony is forbidden to enter and leave, and those who violate it will be shot to death!”
Everyone was silent and did not dare to move.
The imperial doctor came very quickly, and a group of people began to diagnose and treat in a hurry.
Jun Qiyu grabbed an old doctor, and urgently urged: “Tell me, how is Father?”
Song Liqing stopped Jun Qiyu.
Song Liqing whispered: “Wait! Qiyu, go to the inner hall, if there is any emergency…”
“Nonsense! Father, he won’t be in danger!”
Jun Qiyu struggled to get rid of him, but Song Liqing reminded him with a few words, and Jun Qiyu calmed down before thinking of Song Liqing’s intentions.
Emperor Xuan is the pillar of Jing Kingdom, if there is any bad news, Jing Kingdom will be half collapsed, not to mention the envoys of neighboring countries, even these princes and generals, all of them have ulterior motives, once the news gets out, there will probably be chaos!
“Go…to the inner hall!”
Everyone watched eagerly as Emperor Xuan was carried into the inner hall. As for whether they were worried about the Eucharist or were looking forward to it, it is unknown.
The inner hall was much quieter, and the imperial physician quickly replied.
“The emperor is in a coma due to poisoning.”
“Poisoned?” Jun Qiyu asked suspiciously, “Father’s every drink and food are tested with silver needles first, how could he be poisoned?”
The old imperial doctor didn’t dare to talk nonsense, and only said: “Physician Qi is a genius doctor from Bian, he is proficient in this way…”
Qi Miao replied: “There is a strange poison in the world that does not turn black when it meets silver, and silver needles are not foolproof. I am afraid that the source of the poison can only be known by examining all the food that the emperor has used one by one.”
“Okay, you go test it according to what Qi Miao said…Qi Miao, detoxify the emperor quickly!”
Qi Miao looked embarrassed.
“If you don’t know the type of poison, I dare not use it indiscriminately.”
Jun Qiyu scratched her hair and could only wait for the imperial doctor’s drug test results.
Song Liqing looked at Emperor Xuan whose lips had started to turn purple from a distance, and the blood spit out from his mouth was already black.
“Qiyu.” Song Liqing said, “At the banquet, all the drinks and dishes came from the imperial dining room, and everyone ate it. In front of so many people, if someone poisoned alone, he must have served him personally.”
Jun Qiyu suddenly realized.
“Yes! Arrest the chief eunuch and all the court ladies and eunuchs who passed by!”
Song Liqing hurriedly said again: “What I mean is, let’s start with something that only the emperor has eaten…that box of longevity peaches.”
On Emperor Xuan’s table, all the food and drink that had been dipped in his mouth were brought in, and a group of imperial doctors were busy testing the poison with white mice one by one.
The result was unanimous: “No.”
“Where’s the birthday peach?”
Jun Qiyu trembled a little when she spoke, because he dedicated the box of longevity peaches to Emperor Xuan.
“nor.”
“It’s not poisonous?!” Jun Qiyu couldn’t believe it, and said angrily, “You quack doctors! Father was assassinated, and you can’t even find the source? What use are you for?! Go, I will serve my father personally All the maids and eunuchs in the palace will be sent to the prison, where they will be severely tortured!”
Song Liqing pursed his lips, trying to stop Jun Qiyu.
But he knew that Jun Qiyu was worried that his father would lose his mind and would not listen to persuasion.
If his father was going to be killed, he would dig deep to find the murderer.
Dozens of court ladies and eunuchs were dragged into the dungeon mournfully, crying out for mercy.
Jun Qiyu sat down dejectedly, watching the imperial doctor use some common detoxification methods, but there was no progress. Not only did Emperor Xuan not detoxify, but Yintang became darker and darker, and his pulse became weaker and weaker.
“Father…”
Jun Qiyu was helpless, and the more she thought about it, the more impatient she became.
“Your Highness, we have found the source of the poison!”
Qi Miao yelled in surprise, pointing to a cage of white mice, all the white mice in that cage vomited blood and died, next to that box of birthday peaches.
“It’s…Shou Tao!” Jun Qiyu finally showed some slack, “Qi Miao, quickly check what poison it is, if you save your father, I will give you any title reward you want!”
“You should do your best.”
Suddenly, Jun Qiyu’s phoenix eyes narrowed, thought of something, went straight out of the palace, rode on his bloody BMW, sped out of the palace, and returned to the Qilin mansion.
The door of Xingle Zhai was kicked open.
After taking a bath, Hu Nuer was burning incense on her clothes, when she heard a bang, she was grabbed by the throat and pushed against the wall.
“Bitch—”
He was facing the furious Jun Qiyu, and Hu Nuer was so choked that he couldn’t breathe, his face was flushed, and he would suffocate to death in a second.
Jun Qiyu threw him to the ground.
“Ahem…”
Hu Nuer covered his throat and coughed.
“Say, why did you poison my royal father?” Jun Qiyu asked viciously, “My lord spared your life in the Western Regions, allowed you to live to this day, and favored you, in the Qilin Mansion you are more beautiful than the Crown Princess! Isn’t the Lord giving you enough?”
Hu Nuer was full of astonishment and fear, hugging Jun Qiyu’s leg and crying.
“My lord… I don’t know what you are talking about? What poisoned the emperor… I don’t know! Hu Nuer has always remembered the gift of the lord to Hu Nuer, how could you harm your father?”
The author has something to say:
Warning ahead…
