Chapter 230 Leng Linglong is poisoned

At this time, the guards who went to track down the mysterious assassin came back.

Seeing that they had nothing in their hands and looked ashamed, Leng Linglong knew that they had lost the person!

"Madam, please forgive me. I was useless and let the assassin run away! I only found one of his shoes!"

A guard took out a shoe from behind his waist and placed it in front of Leng Linglong.

"Madam, these are the shoes of the waiter from Fulin Restaurant!"

Pei'er, who was standing next to Leng Linglong, pointed at the shoe and suddenly spoke.

"Pei'er, are you sure?"

"Madam, I must have seen it right. When I was in the restaurant, I noticed a large oil stain on the waiter's right shoe. The appearance of that shoe and the location of the oil stain are exactly the same as this shoe!"

Pearl was absolutely sure that these were the waiter's shoes.

Leng Linglong nodded. It seemed that the guards who went to look for the waiter would return empty-handed.

Sure enough, half a quarter of an hour later, the guards came back.

The leading guard clasped his fists respectfully towards Leng Linglong and reported, "Madam, the shopkeeper said that after you went upstairs at noon, he drove the waiter away. We went to the waiter's residence nearby to check. According to the owner of the yard, the waiter had just rented a room from him yesterday. We went into his room to check and found no luggage. He obviously won't be going back!"

Leng Linglong nodded after hearing this, and borrowed a brush, ink, paper and inkstone from the shopkeeper of Yunyi Pavilion. She drew two portraits of the waiter, handed one to a guard and ordered, "Send this portrait to the government office and tell the prefect what happened just now!"

The guard took the portrait and left.

"You two go and inform all the restaurants under the Young Master's name not to hire any new people in the near future. Keep a close eye on all the ingredients and utensils, and don't let anyone take advantage of them! Everyone else, come back with me!"

After seeing the two guards take the order and leave, Leng Linglong stood up and was about to take their men back to the mansion.

At this time, the shopkeeper of Yunyi Pavilion brought a gray-haired old man to Leng Linglong and said respectfully: "Madam, the doctor is here, please treat your wound first!"

Leng Linglong looked up and saw that it was Doctor Chen from Jishan Hall, followed by a female doctor.

Thinking that Doctor Chen had excellent medical skills and ethics, Leng Linglong nodded to the shopkeeper, asked the guards to guard outside the door, and took Pei'er and the female doctor into a fitting room.

Pei'er helped Leng Linglong take off the clothes on her left arm. The female doctor carefully checked her injuries and told the doctor Chen who was standing outside the house about her condition. Under the guidance of Doctor Chen, she skillfully applied medicine and bandaged Leng Linglong's wound.

"Thank you, Doctor Chen and this female doctor!"

Leng Linglong left Yunyi Pavilion, nodded and thanked Doctor Chen and the female doctor, then was about to leave with everyone.

As a result, she had just taken two steps when she suddenly spurted out a mouthful of black blood and her body swayed. Seeing this, Pei'er beside her hurriedly supported her and exclaimed, "Madam, what happened to you?"

Leng Linglong's vision blurred. She tried to stay awake and told the guards, "I'm poisoned. Bring Doctor Chen and the female doctor back home immediately!"

After saying that, he closed his eyes and passed out!

Pei'er quickly helped Leng Linglong onto the carriage. The guards tied up the frightened Doctor Chen, the female doctor, and the manager of Yunyi Pavilion, and the group quickly returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Linglong! Pei'er, what's going on?"

Zhao Che saw Leng Linglong returning to the mansion unconscious, with her left arm obviously injured and bandaged. He held her in his arms and ran into the mansion while asking anxiously.

After bringing Leng Linglong back to the room and putting her on the bed, Zhao Che also learned the whole story from Pei'er.

"Old housekeeper, go to my father's yard and ask him to come to the palace to get a doctor for Linglong!"

"Pei'er, go and invite the young master over, tell him about this, and ask him to bring the antidote pills over quickly!"

"Zhao Qing, tell people to keep Doctor Chen and the other two under strict surveillance! No one is allowed to see them without my order!"

"Zhao Yong, go find the prefect and tell him about this. Ask him to lead people to search the whole city for this waiter!"

......

Zhao Che's face turned livid as he issued one order after another, and everyone followed his orders and left!

Soon, Zhao Che was the only one left by the bed. He held Leng Linglong's hand tightly and murmured, "Linglong, don't get into trouble!"

"Master, let me clean up the lady!"

Leng Linglong's wet nurse, Nanny Chen, came in with her maid Bai Zhi, carrying warm water and other things, and squatted and saluted to Zhao Che.

"give it to me!"

Zhao Che stretched out his hand towards Nanny Chen. Seeing this, Nanny Chen quickly wet the handkerchief in warm water and respectfully handed it to Zhao Che.

Zhao Che took a handkerchief and gently wiped the blood from Leng Linglong's mouth, then changed to a clean handkerchief and carefully wiped Leng Linglong's face.

Just as he was gently wiping Leng Linglong's fingers, Zhao Junhuan ran in in a panic!

He pulled away Nanny Chen and Pei'er who were guarding the bed, took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a pill, and said to Zhao Che, "Dad, quickly feed this antidote pill to Mom!"

This pill was given to him by Lin Xi when he left Linshan Village, saying that it can cure all kinds of poisons!

Zhao Che quickly took the pill from his son's hand, helped Leng Linglong up, let her sit in his arms, fed the pill into Leng Linglong's mouth, then took the warm water handed over by Pei'er and fed Leng Linglong two mouthfuls.

Unexpectedly, the water flowed down the corners of Leng Linglong's mouth. She completely fainted and no longer knew how to swallow.

Seeing this, Zhao Che took a sip of water and fed the pill to Leng Linglong. After seeing her swallow the pill, they all stared at her nervously. After a quarter of an hour, when they saw that the bruise on her lips faded, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Half an hour later, seeing that Leng Linglong still hadn't woken up, Zhao Che, Zhao Junhuan and others became anxious again.

"Go wait at the door. As soon as the doctor arrives, bring him here immediately!"

Zhao Che instructed Pei'er.

"I go!"

As Pei'er turned around, Zhao Junhuan flashed past her like a gust of wind and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

When Zhao Junhuan arrived at the door, he happened to see the old prime minister and the imperial physician getting off the carriage, and the old prime minister was urging the imperial physician.

"Doctor, please hurry up! My daughter-in-law is waiting for you to save her life!"

"Grandfather, I'll take the doctor over first. You walk slowly behind me and take care of yourself!"

After Zhao Junhuan finished speaking, he said "I'm sorry" to the imperial physician and then took him away into the mansion.

"Dad, the doctor is here!"

Zhao Junhuan flashed into the room, and while shouting, he put the imperial physician to the ground.

The imperial physician didn't have time to tidy up his clothes before he was pulled to the bed by Zhao Che.

"Doctor, please take a look at my wife. What kind of poison has she been poisoned by?"

The imperial physician knew the situation was urgent, so after stabilizing his breathing, he placed his hand on Leng Linglong's wrist.

The room was silent!

After a long time, the imperial physician withdrew his hand. He checked Leng Linglong's complexion and tongue coating again, pierced her finger with a silver needle, took a drop of blood, and studied it.

At this time, the old prime minister rushed over and asked repeatedly: "Imperial Physician, what kind of poison has my daughter-in-law been poisoned by? Is there an antidote for this poison?"

"Old Prime Minister, Lord Zhao, I have never seen this poison before. It is very toxic. Judging from the toxicity, Madam Zhao should have died long ago. What medicine did you give Madam Zhao?"

The imperial physician looked at Leng Linglong's face, which looked much better than when he first arrived, and asked curiously.

"My mother took this detoxification pill!"

Zhao Junhuan quickly handed the pill to the imperial physician.

The imperial physician took out a pill and drew a drop of Leng Linglong's blood. He left a sentence "Mrs. Zhao has no need to worry about her life" and went to study aside.
