Chapter 414 Xie Ying is causing trouble again.
Seeing that the two had accepted the imperial edict, Luo Zheng did not stay any longer. After chuckling, he turned around and strode away.
Yang Xiu was already extremely sad and angry. After hearing his mocking chuckle, he was so angry that he vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted on the spot.
Yet no one cared.
Luo Zheng heard the noise, looked back, and then left again.
Yang Shu's face was filled with indifference, and she paid no attention to Yang Xiu, who had collapsed to the ground vomiting blood. It was as if Yang Xiu was not her biological brother, but an insignificant stranger.
She looked directly at Li Changshi and asked anxiously, "Li Changshi, when can we set off back to Gusu?"
She couldn't wait to return to Gusu and didn't want to stay in the capital for even a moment!
Li Changshi also wanted to go back. After all, the capital was not their territory. The longer they stayed here, the more dangerous it would be.
If Yang Xiu and Yang Shu suddenly went crazy and personally reported King Zhou's intention to rebel, King Zhou would definitely not be able to escape this disaster, and as the Chief Secretary, he would have no way out but death!
So they must leave as soon as possible!
Li Changshi glanced at Yang Xiu, who had fallen to the ground vomiting blood, and said decisively: "Pack up and get going immediately!"
Yang Shu said, "I don't have anything to pack. Is the carriage ready? Let's go."
Li Changshi had naturally already asked people to prepare the carriage so that they could set off as soon as possible.
So he did not refute, but asked someone to ask a good doctor to take Yang Xiu's pulse while preparing to set off.
He brought the good doctor with him specially when he came to the capital this time. After he arrived, he took Yang Xiu's pulse.
Seeing Yang Xiu vomiting blood and unconscious, the good doctor was shocked and hurried to take Yang Xiu's pulse.
"How?" Li Changshi asked with concern, but he secretly had some hope in his heart: If Yang Xiu vomited blood and died in the capital, it would not be a bad thing for the Zhou Palace.
The good doctor sighed and said, "Young Master, you were poisoned this time and your body was seriously injured. However, the vomiting of blood this time has helped you spit out the blood clots in your body, which is a good thing."
Li Changshi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but he didn't dare to ask anyone to kill Yang Xiu directly.
If Yang Xiu died of vomiting blood, he could still blame it on Luo Zheng.
But if he did something else and the coroner found out, he would be held responsible.
Moreover, Yang Xiu was the legitimate son of King Zhou after all. Even if he was demoted to a commoner, King Zhou would be very disappointed in him, but he still had the princess as his biological mother.
If he had acted on his own initiative and secretly killed Yang Xiu, King Zhou and the Queen might not have resented him.
So after Li Changshi's mind changed quickly, he still instructed the good doctor to carefully take care of Yang Xiu's body, and then ordered people to put Yang Xiu on the carriage and set off immediately.
After leaving the palace, he sent someone to the Xie family to offer apology.
The Medicine God Doctor has already returned to his hometown with his coffin and is not in the capital now. He can only send the Medicine God Doctor's apology to the Imperial Pharmacy and ask the manager of the Imperial Pharmacy to keep it for him and give it to her after the Medicine God Doctor returns to the capital.
So now he only needs to bring Yang Xiu and Yang Shu back to Gusu safely, and all his tasks will be completed.
The group walked smoothly without any obstruction.
As soon as they left, Emperor Taihe received the news.
He raised the corner of his mouth sarcastically: "If you want to go back, then go back. Without the status of a prince and a princess, even if you return to the Gusu Zhou Palace alive, what good will it do?"
After the ridicule, he directly asked Luo Zheng to go to the Xie family and give the night pearl given by King Zhou to Xie Ying as a reward.
Xie Ying was stolen, but she found high-yield crops for him. This was a great achievement, so she deserved a reward!
Xie family.
After Luo Zheng left, Xie Ying looked at the night pearl curiously, but the more she looked at it, the more disgusted she felt.
It's just a glowing bead, it's not pretty and it emits radiation, yet some people actually give it as a treasure and give it to others!
She curled her lips in disdain and reminded Xie Xiu: "Daddy, put it away quickly and find a secluded place to store it. This thing has radiation. If people come into contact with it too much, they will easily get sick."
Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao were originally amazed at the faint light emitted by the night pearl, but when they heard what Xie Ying said, their faces suddenly changed drastically with fear!
"Can this thing harm people?" Tu Jiaojiao asked softly, "Could it be that King Zhou did this on purpose? Is he trying to murder Your Majesty?"
Xie Xiu frowned, feeling somewhat doubtful.
Xie Ying shook her head: [Although this thing has radiation, the amount is not large. Unless worn for a long time, it will not cause significant harm to people.]
Upon hearing this, Xie Xiu couldn't help but feel secretly disappointed.
In this way, even if he wanted to prove that this night pearl could harm people, it would take a long time to verify it.
Therefore, it is almost impossible to use him to prove that King Zhou had evil intentions and intended to murder Emperor Taihe.
Xie Xiu had no choice but to give up this plan and prepare to find a secluded room to put the night pearl away as Xie Ying said.
However, Tu Jiaojiao was quicker. She picked up the night pearl in the box, rushed out, and found the most remote house to store it.
Seeing her reaction so strongly, Xie Xiu felt helpless at first, but soon he felt that Tu Jiaojiao was not bad at all.
If he directly told Emperor Taihe that this night pearl was something harmful, it would inevitably give people a chance to criticize him.
But if the news that the Night Pearl can harm people is carefully spread, Emperor Taihe will definitely feel a sharp thorn in his heart.
Xie Xiu pondered for a long time, and when he saw Tu Jiaojiao striding back, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Where did you put it?"
Tu Jiaojiao mentioned a place and then asked Xie Ying, "Yingying, what was the radiation you mentioned earlier?"
She had actually wanted to ask this a long time ago, but she was afraid that if the night pearl stayed there for a moment longer, it would hurt her husband and daughter, so she quickly took the thing away.
Xie Xiu also looked at Xie Ying. He also wanted to know, what is radiation?
Xie Ying had already come up with an idea at this time, so she told the two of them the story of radium water.
When radium was first discovered, many people believed it to be a elixir that could prolong life because of its ability to glow. Many businesses even added it to milk powder, cosmetics, skin care products, and health supplements, and promoted it extensively.
As a result, a wealthy businessman drank radium water every day. He drank more than 1,400 bottles in four years and successfully sent himself to see God.
When Xie Ying told this story to Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao, she made a slight modification, changing the last "see God" to "go to the Western Heaven."
By the way, he also gave them some scientific knowledge about the heavy metals in the elixir. Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao felt their scalps tingle and got goose bumps all over their bodies.
"This radiation is too terrible!" Tu Jiaojiao suddenly had the urge to throw the night pearl away, and even couldn't help complaining to Emperor Taihe in her heart: Why not give something else as a reward, but actually give such a harmful thing!
Xie Ying, however, looked at Xie Xiu with a burning gaze: [Daddy, please write a storybook! I've thought of the story, listen to me and tell you...]
Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao: "..."
What are you so excited about?
