Chapter 155 Poisoning
No one expected that there would be a sudden change. The man in black jumped out from the dense leaves and went straight towards the emperor with a sharp sword in his hand.

"Escort!" Wang Chengxiang's face turned pale with fright, and he shouted at the top of his voice, and hurriedly backed up to protect the emperor.

After a moment of fear, Zhao Zongheng calmed down, stepped back calmly, supported Zhao Yuanli, frowned and looked at his shoulders pierced by arrow feathers and his face sank: "Is the emperor okay?"

Zhao Yuanli's face was gloomy, he closed his eyes and raised his hand to pull out the long sword at the waist of the guard next to him, raised his hand and cut off the tail of the arrow, and shook his head at Zhao Zongheng: "I'm fine, these assassins are very skilled, like dead soldiers. "

"Yeah." Zhao Zongheng lowered his eyes: "Keep alive."

"Yes." Zhao Yuanli raised his sword and rushed into the crowd, wrestling with the men in black.

The goal of these people is very clear, they are coming for the emperor, approaching step by step, but unfortunately it is Han Yulang who is protecting the emperor today, which of the soldiers under her command is not an elite?

Those men in black couldn't get close to the emperor for a long time. Han Yulang was like a duck to water in the fight with a long sword in his hand. Suddenly changed direction at the same time, and attacked towards Si Ning Pond.

Zhao Zongheng's originally calm expression suddenly changed when he saw the sword stabbing Si Ningchi: "Achi—!"

Si Ningchi looked up and met Zhao Zongheng's trembling eyes. This was the first time she saw such a look on Zhao Zongheng's face. She thought he was always calm and calm, or calm and calm. .

Chong——!
The close-up long sword snapped at a distance of two inches from Si Ningchi. Shen Ting turned sideways to block Si Ningchi behind him, turned the chopsticks in his hand, and shot them out without hesitation. Inserted into the forehead of the man in black.

The surrounding air seemed to be silent for a moment, and those men in black looked at Shen Ting in horror. They thought they were just a humble eunuch serving the empress, but they didn't expect to have such internal strength!
"Withdraw." Seeing that the situation was not right, those men in black suddenly released countless dark darts from their cuffs and flew away.

"Stop them!" Zhao Zongheng raised his eyes and shouted.

"Be careful, Your Majesty!" One of the men in black walked around behind Zhao Zongheng at some point, and the dark dart passed towards Zhao Zongheng. The long sword also pierced through the body of the man in black.

Zhao Zongheng was unable to dodge in time, and his arm was cut by the flying dark dart.

Si Ningchi's heart trembled suddenly, and he hurried forward: "Your Majesty?"

Zhao Zongheng covered his wound and remained silent. Hearing Si Ningchi's concerned voice, he raised his head: "I'm fine."

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Zongheng felt his whole body spinning, and fell headlong into Si Ningchi's arms. Si Ningchi looked down and saw black blood flowing from the wound he was covering.

"Dark darts are poisonous!" Si Ningchi let out a breath of air, and quickly turned his head and called out, "Shen Ting!"

"The servant is here." Shen Ting stepped forward and stretched out his hand to seal Zhao Zongheng's acupuncture points. Si Ningchi pulled off his belt and wrapped it around Zhao Zongheng's arm, tightening it to prevent the toxin from spreading further into his body.

"General Han, can the assassin survive?" Si Ningchi turned his head and asked in a cold voice.

"They are all dead men, with poison hidden in their mouths, and I have not survived." Han Yulang replied, shaking his head.

"Escort the emperor back to the palace." Si Ningchi looked up at Han Yulang and said, "Let's leave it to General Han to deal with the aftermath."

"The minister obeys the order."

The story of the emperor's assassination and injury spread quickly to everyone in the palace. The imperial physicians and maids in the Chengming palace came and went, and the queen and all the concubines in the palace were waiting outside. Concubine De and Concubine Xian wanted to ask something , but seeing the empress's cold face, she didn't dare to speak.

There was a noise outside the door, and Si Ningchi looked up and saw the Empress Dowager Cui who waved away the guards and rushed into the palace.

"Where's the emperor? Where is the emperor!?" Empress Dowager Cui looked anxious, and looked around before heading towards the bedroom.

"Empress Dowager, the imperial physicians are treating the emperor, please stay outside later." Wang Chengxiang hurriedly stepped forward to block Empress Dowager Cui's way.

"How could the good emperor get hurt! How did you serve the emperor!" Empress Dowager Cui roared sharply, her anxious and worried appearance didn't seem like a fake, Wang Chengxiang had a bitter face and didn't know what to say.

Empress Dowager Cui was furious, she turned her head to look at Si Ningchi who was sitting on the chair safely, and said with anger all over her eyes: "Is this how the empress serves the emperor?"

Si Ningchi raised his eyes to look at Empress Dowager Cui, and said in a flat tone: "Is this the empress dowager's crime of asking concubines?"

Empress Dowager Cui laughed angrily, seeing Si Ningchi's normal look, the emperor didn't know whether he was alive or dead inside, she didn't show any worry at all, thanks to the emperor's love for him!
"The empress and the emperor went to the outskirts of Beijing for a spring outing. They didn't protect the emperor well, and even injured the emperor." Empress Dowager Cui pointed at Si Ningchi and said, "If there is something wrong with the emperor, Aijia wants you to be buried with him!"

"The empress dowager doesn't have to curse the emperor to death in such a hurry." Si Ningchi laughed lightly when he heard the words, looked at the empress dowager Cui coldly and said: "Those who don't know think that the empress dowager is so urgent and want to seize the emperor's power .”

"You're presumptuous!" Empress Dowager Cui glared angrily, staring at Si Ningchi with some disbelief: "The emperor's situation is so critical, but you can be so calm, should the Ai family say that you are ruthless, or should they praise you for being in danger?" No mess."

"The empress dowager congratulates." Si Ningchi smiled with his lips bent: "The concubine has brains and can tell the difference."

"It's not like some people who have nothing else to do except yell and disturb people's peace."

"..."

Seeing that the atmosphere between the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager was getting worse, Wang Chengxiang raised his heart. The curtain in the bedroom was lifted and the imperial physician finally came out, successfully attracting everyone's attention. The Empress Dowager Cui greeted her immediately: "What's the matter, Your Majesty?" ?”

The imperial doctor took a look at Empress Dowager Cui and bowed his head, then bowed in the direction of Si Ningchi station and said: "Return to the Queen Mother and Empress Empress, the emperor is fine, the toxins in the body are well controlled. The adults teamed up to force out the poison with silver needles."

"It's just that the wound on the arm is very deep, and there is still some remaining poison. It may be that it is difficult to move these few days." The imperial doctor carefully gestured at the position of the wound on the arm, to the effect that he could not lift his hand these few days.

"Will there be any sequelae?" Si Ningchi frowned slightly and asked in a low voice.

"This..." The imperial doctor shook his head and said: "I can't guarantee it now, the poison is too fierce, it's lucky to be able to force it out, I can only wait for the emperor to wake up and then observe."
