Congratulations on opening the coffin

Chapter 55
When Shen Ruo heard that he had brought a doctor, she raised her eyebrows and looked at the man next to him. He was small and thin, but he was wearing a gorgeous mink fur coat that didn't fit him. He looked funny and funny.

However, Shen Ruo couldn't laugh, the person who came was the envoy sent by Khitan for peace talks, her expression became strange: "Prince, are you a monkey sent to make a joke?
The eldest prince of Khitan did not hear the sarcasm in her words, and retorted with a little bit of dissatisfaction: "Woman, no one can send this prince, even if there is, it should be a tiger and a lion."

"..." Shen Ruo was speechless, unable to refute for a moment.

But fortunately, the Khitan envoy was quite clear-headed, and couldn't bear his prince to be teased by the woman in front of him, so he said: "Princess Jing doesn't know something, the minister is also a priest in Khitan, and he is also a little bit sensitive about some difficult and miscellaneous diseases." I understand a little bit, that's why the eldest prince asked the little minister to treat you, empress."

While he was explaining, a deep voice suddenly came from inside the car: "That's for playing tricks."

The envoy's face froze immediately, and he saw a slender bamboo-like hand protruding from above Shen Ruo, lifting the curtain of the car, and a tall and straight figure completely shrouded Shen Ruo, like her patron saint.

Just when the atmosphere was a little awkward, the Khitan prince with a rough personality didn't notice it at all, and he only yelled dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Chen, why are you here? What a bad luck!"

Seeing that the surrounding air pressure dropped, Xiao Chen sarcastically said, "Each to each other!"

The two men looked at each other, and there was a tense atmosphere in the air, which made the Khitan envoy sweat coldly, and hurriedly persuaded in a low voice: "Prince, now we have signed a contract with Xiao Guo, we can't do it again." Do whatever you want!"

When the eldest prince heard the words, his eyes darkened, and after several deep breaths, he snorted coldly, but he still did not forget to say harsh words: "Little Xiao Chen, you are lucky, you escaped a catastrophe today!"

However, Xiao Chen just said a simple sentence: "Everyone, each other!" and almost got so angry that the eldest prince broke his defense on the spot.

It was Shen Ruo who was at the side who interrupted them in a cold voice with a little impatience: "Have you had enough trouble? If you don't have you, get out of the city and continue. Don't be an eyesore here, and delay my return home."

Seeing the appearance of the Khitan prince holding a chicken feather as an arrow, he said to Xiao Chen, "Did you hear that, she said you are an eyesore!"

"..." Xiao Chen really couldn't reply to this kind of scolding between children. How could he treat this kind of person as an opponent in the first place, which really lowered his level.

The Khitan envoy next to him also knew what kind of virtue his eldest prince was, and was worried that he would do something embarrassing again, so he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty's face is pale, and the whites of her eyes are turning blue. It should not be a common disease, but caused by poisoning. Bar."

The envoy's few words immediately attracted Xiao Chen's attention: "Are you really good at seeing a doctor?"

The envoy smiled slightly, which was originally a gesture to highlight his temperament, but he had a thin face, mouse eyes and cockroach eyes, and the same movement looked extremely wretched: "Slightly understand, slightly understand."

Xiao Chen really didn't judge people by their appearance, just pondered for a moment, and grabbed him into the carriage with one hand: "Okay, I will let you see the doctor for the princess, and come back to the palace with us."

As he spoke, he gave the coachman a look, the coachman understood immediately, raised his whip, and galloped away, the eldest prince on the side of the road subconsciously dodged, only to react in the next second: "Wait, I'm going too! "

Immediately, he didn't care about it, got on his horse and chased after him, shouting and cursing loudly while chasing: "Xiao Chen, you are so despicable and shameless, crossing the river and tearing down the bridge, stop for this prince!"

Hearing the constant scolding outside the carriage, the envoys in the carriage felt a great pressure, fearing that Xiao Chen would be angry, so they would vent their anger on him and cut off his head.

So along the way, the envoys all huddled in a corner in aggrieved manner, not daring to take a breath.

When I returned to the palace, I didn’t take two steps until I heard someone knocking on the door. The force felt that the door could be hammered out of the hole in the next second, and I heard someone outside shouting: "Xiao Chen, open the door!" Ah! I know you are inside! You have the ability to rob people, and you have the ability to open the door!"

"..." At this moment, the air pressure around Xiao Chen's body had dropped to the lowest level, and he couldn't help but draw his sword and go out to watch people.

It was Ji Ling, the envoy, who turned his gaze to Shen Ruo: "Your Majesty, let the eldest prince come in. He heard that you vomited blood and fainted a few days ago, so he bought medicine from a pharmacy to see you, but he was repeatedly rejected by you." Shut out."

"Today I heard that you went to the Lin Mansion, and you dragged the little minister to stop him halfway without saying a word. The eldest prince's love for you is a lesson from heaven and earth!" As he said that, the envoy couldn't help shedding two drops of emotion. Tears come.

Shen Ruo glanced at Xiao Chen who was next to him, and he immediately turned his head away, not looking at her, and he didn't know if it was due to a guilty conscience, after resting in the mansion for so many days, this was the first time she heard about it.

In the end, she only sighed, and said to the boy next to her, "Open the door for people to come in."

The boy looked at the prince, and after getting permission, he turned around and opened the door.

As soon as the eldest prince walked in, he swaggered arrogantly, looked impressively victorious, looked around from time to time, shook his head and said: "Xiao Chen, your mansion is not good, the beams are not inlaid with gold, and the ground is not paved with jade. , it looks too dull."

Just as he was talking, the envoy hurriedly stood up and fought the battle with a smile, for fear that the eldest prince who committed suicide would be strangled to death at some point: "Madam, let's go to the doctor as soon as possible, this disease can't be delayed." .”

Shen Ruo didn't care, nodded: "Let's go."

Bringing the envoys to the main hall, he first took Shen Ruo's pulse, then asked about the details of his symptoms, stroked the mustache on his chin, and muttered: "Your Majesty, this poison sounds a bit like a disease from the Western Regions." It is a strange poison with a beautiful face and dry bones. After a person takes it, his body will be hollowed out bit by bit, and eventually he will become a dying skin and bones."

"It's such a poisonous medicine, yet it has such a nice name, such a poisonous person." The eldest prince complained beside him.

Xiao Chen didn't bother to talk to him anymore, he just asked, "Is there an antidote?"

However, the envoy shook his head and sighed: "This poison has been rumored a hundred years ago. I never thought I would see it again today, but the antidote is absolutely gone..."

Seeing that everyone looked depressed, the envoy hurriedly comforted him again: "However, I can prescribe a medicine to alleviate the condition, and maybe it will last for another three to five and a half years."

"Half a year!?" Xiao Chen was shocked when he heard this time.

"Your Majesty, the poison has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, half a year is already the best result."

Although the envoy didn't have a deep relationship with Princess Jing, but he had only met this few times, but he also admired this calm, intelligent and witty princess, who is more than a man.

Sighing, the envoy took the pen and paper from the servant and wrote down the prescription.
