Chapter 558
Mu Yunyao was in the middle of studying a medical book when she suddenly heard a clamor. She couldn't help but furrow her brows.
"Jinlan, what's going on outside?
"
"This servant will immediately go take a look.
" Before Jin Lan could even reach the door, she saw a palace maid hurriedly run in and kneel in front of Mu Yunyao.
"Princess, please save our Prince!
" After the palace maid finished speaking, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and before long, a bruise appeared on her forehead.
Mu Yunyao's expression was indifferent as she coldly looked at the palace maid who was kowtowing. She felt an unexplainable annoyance in her heart, as all the women in the harem would only have fights in their hearts. Even now, she didn't forget to give her an eyewinker first:
"I don't know who that 'Your Highness' you speak of?
"
"Reporting to the princess, it's the third prince, Prince Jin.
"
"You said that you wanted me to save him, but all you did was keep kowtowing. You didn't say anything about the current situation of Prince Jin. Are you here to ask for help, or are you here to frame me for not saving you?
"
The palace maid's face immediately turned pale.
"All of a sudden, this servant was panicking and didn't explain everything. Prince Jin was poisoned and the imperial physicians are currently helping to treat him.
"
"Jin Lan, take the medicine box. Let's go take a look.
"
"Yes.
"
When Mu Yunyao arrived at the Multicolored Flower Palace, the imperial physicians were already in a hurry and the emperor had already arrived. He was currently holding the hand of a grieving and grieving precious concubine.
"Greetings, Your Majesty …
"
"Princess, I've heard that your medical skills have reached the acme of perfection. You'll definitely be able to keep Jun Jin safe and sound, won't you?
" When Zhen Fei saw Mu Yunyao, she hurriedly came forward and held her hand.
Mu Yunyao couldn't help but twitch her forehead and sweep through her fingers.
"Imperial Concubine Zhen, let me take a look at Prince Jin's condition first.
"
"Yes, hurry up and go take a look.
"
At this moment, Prince Jin's face was green, his lips were stained with blood, his lips were dark and purple, and his entire body was ice-cold. From time to time, he would even twitch, making him look extremely serious.
Mu Yunyao's eyes flashed as she hurriedly looked at the imperial physician at the side.
"Did you urge him to vomit?
"
"I've already given it a try, but the effects aren't too obvious.
"
"I'll vomit again. It doesn't look like ordinary poison to me.
"
"Alright.
"
The imperial physicians helped Prince Jin vomit, and then they fed him the antidote. However, the results were still unclear.
She had people look for the Black Head Poison, and it was not a large amount. Logically speaking, just a bit of vomiting should be enough to alleviate it, so why was it that now it seemed to be getting more and more out of hand? Mu Yunyao helped Prince Jin prick his needle, then consulted with the imperial physicians. Her expression was especially solemn as she said,
"Your majesty, the poison in Prince Jin's body is extremely rare. The imperial physicians and I have never seen it before, so we can only help him alleviate his symptoms and not expel the poison. Your Majesty, do you remember that Poison Lady I told you about?
Brat, she has done a lot of research on medicine and poison, I want someone to invite her in.
"
"Alright, immediately send someone to get it.
"
The aconite's poison wasn't too rare, so how come neither Mu Yunyao nor the Imperial Physician could diagnose it?
"Princess Wen Xian, can you identify the poison in Jun Jin's body?
"
"Yes, the poison is rare and ordinary methods of detoxification are ineffective.
"
Ju Fei opened her mouth in a daze, but didn't say anything.
When Mu Yunyao saw her strange expression, she couldn't help but slightly retract her gaze. Something wasn't right with her expression, but within her panic was also a hint of disbelief, as if she didn't believe what she had just said.
The imperial guards went to Chang De Medical Hall to ask for the Poison Lady, and were unable to return for a short while. Fortunately, Prince Jin's condition didn't worsen, so consort Zhen was able to hold on.
After nearly an hour, the Poison Lady's face was covered as she followed the guard in.
Seeing that she didn't reveal her true appearance, Mu Yunyao couldn't help but crease her eyebrows. Mu Yunyao hurriedly explained from the side,
"Your majesty, the face of the Poison Lady was destroyed by the Han Family, so the reason why she wears a veil all day isn't because she's disrespectful to your majesty, but because she's afraid of scaring others with her true appearance.
"
"Mm,
" the emperor didn't pursue the matter further,
"Poison Lady, there's no need to be so courteous. Come forward and help Prince Jin treat his illness.
"
"Yes.
" He turned to look at Mu Yunyao,
"I don't know if I can ask Princess Wen Xian to come forward and help, but the silver needles used by the princess are not bad. Since Prince Jin was poisoned by the Hundred Souls Powder, it is very rare to see this type of poison in the martial arts world.
Those who start out unconscious will gradually lose their consciousness, and the longer they are poisoned, the more intense the poison will be …
"
Zhen Fei's eyes widened, and her body swayed, almost fainting on the ground:
"What's wrong … … How was this possible …
"No, no...
"
Zhen Fei who had almost told him the truth came back to her senses. She clenched her teeth and forced herself to calm down,
"Yunyao, I beg you, please save Prince Jin.
"
Mu Yunyao's eyes moved as she immediately replied,
"I hope that Imperial Concubine Zhen won't worry. I'll definitely do my best.
" The imperial physician had already brought over all the silver needles. The wicked woman carefully chose a set and said,
"Princess, the Hundred Spirits Powder is as it is known for. The poison will circulate through all the acupoints in your body, and you will need to use silver needles to lock these acupoints and then drink the antidote before being able to expel the poison outside your body.
"All of the acupoints must not be wrong. Once the silver needles are in the wrong position, the poison at the acupoints cannot be expelled, and the residual poison will cause the body to become disabled.
"
Mu Yunyao raised her gaze to look at the Poison Matriarch, and met with her slightly shining eyes. She lightly nodded her head and said,
"As long as you point out the acupuncture points, I definitely won't be wrong.
"
"Alright.
"
The Poison Matriarch turned to look at the imperial physician.
"There's no way to treat His Highness Duke of Jin through his clothes. You guys should've stripped him of all his clothes.
"
The imperial physicians hesitated as they hurried to ask the emperor.
"Saving someone is more important. Do as the Poison Lady says.
"
"Yes.
"
Prince Jin was only wearing his underpants, and the poisonous woman distributed the silver needles. As she looked for the correct acupuncture points, she commanded Mu Yunyao,
"Meeting, people welcome, in the mountain range …
"
Mu Yunyao quickly dropped a needle, and every needle was flawless. The imperial physicians' eyes were shining brightly. So the Nine Meridians Golden Needle Technique from the Jin line had them panicking, but unfortunately, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't figure it out. Now that they had witnessed the Poison Lady's acupuncture techniques, they were shocked beyond belief.
To think that even Princess Wen Xian was so adept at acupuncture.
Mu Yunyao listened to the Poison Matriarch's orders as she dropped the silver needles, but her thoughts continued to wander.
That time at the Jin palace, she had been suppressed by her concubine, Lady Wang, and had even been secretly poisoned. At that time, the wicked woman had coincidentally taught her the art of acupuncture, so she had secretly drugged and tied up Lady Wang just like she did with Prince Jin, and pierced all the acupuncture points on her body.
"Alright.
" Mu Yunyao stopped her movements as soon as she finished speaking. She had been striking her spirit for a long time, so now that she relaxed, she suddenly felt a little dizzy.
The Poison Matriarch hurriedly supported her.
"Princess, are you alright?
"
"I'm fine. I just need to rest for a while.
"
"The princess has really helped a lot. If it weren't for you, Prince Jin wouldn't have been able to survive.
" The Poison Matriarch pushed all the credit to Mu Yunyao before instructing the imperial physician to make medicine.
