After Su Wan returned to the General fu, Physician Si became a frequent visitor of the General fu. After that night's banquet, the entire General fu's attitude towards Physician Si became even more cordial and amiable. Regarding Su Wan's sudden change of courtyard, Physician Si did not feel anything unusual. He only felt a bit distressed for the haggard Su Wan on the bed: "Xiao Wan, did you sleep well last night?"
The relationship between the two people slowly changed. Physician Si's way of addressing Su Wan also changed from unfamiliar to intimate.
"I slept well."
Su Wan smiled at Physician Si: "I'm really fine now, you don't need to accompany me."
"I know your body is fine, but your spirit … …"
Speaking to here, Physician Si's expression became somewhat dignified: "Did you catch the assassin that night?"
Su Rui was seriously injured and unconscious. Su fu announced to the public that he was injured by an assassin and Su Wan didn't look too good these past few days. Su Yu Feng only told Physician Si that Su Wan was frightened by the assassin that day.
This kind of excuse didn't arouse any suspicion from the outside world. Instead, "Who is the assassin" became the hottest topic in the capital.
Because Su Rui was immediately assassinated after the banquet, many people who attended the banquet were suspected. Xuan Yuan Rui was one of them.
And this time, Su Rui's serious injury also angered His Majesty. These past few days, the capital was heavily guarded. All kinds of interrogations and searches never stopped. Perhaps because the matter was too big, it caused the matter at the banquet to spread. Ordinary people then knew that Princess Su Wan already had someone in her heart and that person who moved her heart was Imperial Physician Si.
Si family had always been a genius doctor family. Their reputation exploded among the people and they were also very popular in the court. The news of Su family and Si family's marriage alliance gradually diluted the matter of the assassin and became a joyous event that everyone was paying attention to.
Although Su Wan couldn't go out every day, the people outside would still pass in all kinds of news. Su Wan also learned from Ye Zhi Jin that Xuan Yuan Rui and Ye Zhi Hua had already shed all pretense of cordiality. Recently, Ye Zhi Hua's life in the Wangfu was especially painful.
Only Ye Zhi Hua was suffering. This was too unfair to Xuan Yuan Rui's little friend.
Seeing that it was almost New Year's Eve, Su Wan knew that this should be her first and last New Year's Eve in this world.
Perhaps Xuanyuan Qing's troops will arrive outside the capital in a few days. A storm is about to sweep through the entire capital!
"Si Yu."
Su Wan knew that this show was coming to an end. She looked at Physician Si with some lingering fear: "There has been no news of the assassins. Physician Si, they are really scary. I am very scared."
"Don't be afraid, I will protect you."
Physician Si gently embraced Su Wan in his arms, his tone was especially firm.
"Yes."
Su Wan nodded, then as if she thought of something, her eyes sparkled as she looked at Physician Si: "Physician Si, you're so good at concocting medicines, can you teach me, let me have a way to defend myself?"
"You want to learn?"
Physician Si looked at Su Wan with some astonishment.
Doctors could save people as well as kill people.
Medicines, can save lives, can also kill lives.
Doctors basically kill people without seeing blood. Si family once had several poison experts and according to Su Wan's knowledge, in this generation of Si family, whether it was in developing poisons or using poisons, Si Yu was the most talented.
"Can't I learn?"
Hearing Physician Si's question, Su Wan somewhat dejectedly drooped her eyes: "That's right, I'm not a person of Si family. Also … … I'm so stupid, I definitely won't be able to learn."
"Who said that?"
Physician Si couldn't bear to see Su Wan's sad appearance, so he immediately patted his chest and promised that he would teach her well. With her talent, she would quickly learn.
The two people chatted for a while. Physician Si told Su Wan to rest more and he himself went to another courtyard to see Su Rui who was still unconscious.
In fact, after resting for a few days, Su Rui's external injuries were a lot better. At least, it wasn't as badly mangled as it was at the beginning. But he was still unconscious. No matter what method Physician Si used, Su Rui didn't have any perception of the outside world.
He was like a person who fell into a dream and didn't want to wake up, as if he instinctively rejected everything in the outside world.
The days passed by peacefully and in the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve. Every year on New Year's Eve, His Majesty would hold a banquet for the ministers. All the vassal kings and the royal family members who returned to the capital would also participate in this banquet.
This was the Da Xia dynasty's annual banquet for the royal family, but for Su Wan, this was also a banquet of slaughter.
On New Year's Eve, the entire Imperial City was brightly lit. Su Wan sat in the General fu's carriage and entered the Imperial City from the east gate. Through the carriage's curtain, she looked at the magnificent and majestic palaces outside the carriage. Thinking that this place would soon become a pile of ruins, Su Wan regretfully thought that it would be good if she had a mobile phone. That way, she could save tonight's bloody battle in the Imperial City as a documentary.
There were a lot of officials who came to participate in the banquet. Almost everyone brought their family members. This was the only time every year that they could show their faces in front of His Majesty and the many princes and princesses. Those sons and daughters of the officials were naturally in high spirits and attended in splendid attire.
Su Wan was still wearing a red dress. This seemed to have become her signature color. Because they knew that she liked red, there was not a single person wearing red among the rows of womenfolk.
From this, it could be seen how much the Su family was favored in the court … …
Every year, the process of the Imperial City's banquet was more or less the same. In addition to the Imperial Palace's singing and dancing, it was the sons and daughters of the civil and military officials who went on stage to perform. Finally, there were those princes and princesses who didn't reach adulthood who went on stage as the finale.
Su Wan sat in a position closer to the front. She had been absent-mindedly leaning on the seat behind her. She didn't even touch the food on the table. When others saw her appearance, they only thought that she was uncomfortable. In fact, Su Wan was counting down in her heart.
When the people in the palace were toasting each other, there was suddenly an earth-shaking battle cry outside the palace garden! That sound was getting closer and closer, accompanied by a group of burning flames!
A large part of the palace garden was engulfed by the flames. Those timid palace servants screamed in fear and hid. With such a big movement, the people in the Imperial City's banquet venue finally realized that something was wrong.
"What happened? Someone come! "
His Majesty who was sitting on the Dragon Throne felt that something was wrong. He immediately loudly called for the guards at the entrance of the palace. Then a large number of Imperial Guards rushed in. Seeing the person who took the lead, everyone in the palace couldn't help but widen their eyes.
"Father Emperor, long time no see."
Xuan Yuan Qing was wearing a black armour. Step by step, he walked into the palace. On his grave and stern face, there was a trace of a rare smile.
The moment Xuan Yuan Qing appeared, Xuan Yuan Rui's complexion changed wildly. Why was he still alive?
As if feeling Xuan Yuan Rui's gaze, Xuan Yuan Qing slightly tilted his head and faintly smiled at him: "Third Imperial Brother, I trust you have been well since we last met! Tonight is such an important occasion, how come I don't see Third Imperial Sister-in-law? "
Speaking of Ye Zhi Hua, Xuan Yuan Qing's tone teased Xuan Yuan Rui: "Speaking of Third Imperial Sister-in-law, she is the noble person in my life."
The so-called Eight Characters of Marriage and so on … …
Xuan Yuan Rui's hazy complexion immediately became even more unsightly when he heard Xuan Yuan Qing's words: "You traitor, are you trying to murder the Emperor?"
"Third Imperial Brother, you already said that I am a traitor! What do you think I want to do? "
Xuan Yuan Qing smiled. Finally, he turned his head and looked at His Majesty who was sitting on the Dragon Throne: "Father Emperor, you tell me, do I have the qualifications to sit on this throne?"
Such arrogance, such shameless boasting, it was simply courting death!
In the main hall, there were already some military officers who began to secretly cultivate. As long as His Majesty gave the order, they would immediately rush over and take down this traitor.
However, His Majesty who was sitting on the Dragon Throne remained silent.
The situation in the main hall began to become incomparably strange. Physician Si who was sitting in the second row on the left suddenly had a change of expression.
Tonight's meal … …
Poison!
Physician Si asked himself and could be considered to have seen hundreds of poisons in the world. But tonight, he unexpectedly also fell for this trick. It could be seen how powerful this poison was.
"Pu!"
At this time, those military officers who were secretly cultivating suddenly spat out blood. Their complexion became ugly: "Poison!"
"Ah!"
Bursts of screams came from the crowd. Immediately, like dominoes being pushed down, the people in the main hall were poisoned one by one. This poison would not take people's lives. As long as you don't secretly cultivate, this poison would only make your stomach ache unbearably and your whole body weak.
