Pampered Consort of the Fragrant Orchard Chapter 75.2

Chapter 75 . 2 – The Poison King and the Grape's Bromance (2)

“What, this is 'Fire and Ice' poison?” Hearing Du Xiao Li's words, an imperial physician said in shock .
“Imperial Physician Hu, you know this poison?” Han Ming Ze asked .
“Replying to your Majesty, this fire and ice poison is also a kind of poison that recently appeared in the pugilistic
world . Because everyone that has seen this poison have all died, that's why no information about this poison has
spread . Because of this, this old official didn't recognize it . Just now hearing Miss Du say it, this old official recalled
it was this . ” Imperial Physician Hu replied, “However, this old official heard, this fire and ice poison, the poison
king seemingly didn't develop an antidote either…… . . ”
“En, very rarely would the poisons developed by the poison king have antidotes . ” Du Xiao Li said .
“Without an antidote, what will the third princess do?” Another imperial physician said .
“Imperial Physician Hu, since you know this poison, can you develop an antidote?” Han Ming Ze asked .
“This old official is ashamed . The poison king's poison has always been something this old official is unable to
catch with . ” Imperial Physician Hu replied, cupping his hand in a bow .
Imperial Physician Hu was the on that understood poison the most among all the imperial physicians . Even he said
he was powerless, never mind the others .
“Junior sister, do you have a way to solve this?” Niu Jing looked to Du Xiao Li and asked .
Du Xiao Li was taking Lu Jun Qi's pulse just now . When Niu Jing asked, she'd just finished taking her pulse . She
placed Lu Jun Qi's hand back under the blankets and said, “This fire and ice poison, I still haven't studied yet .
Whether or not I can cure it, will have to wait until after I finish studying it to know . ”

“Heard after getting this fire and ice poison, the person will die the next day . From getting poisoned late last night to
until now, it has already been about 12 hours, will Miss Du make it in time?” Imperial Physician Hu asked .
“That's right, this fire and ice poison indeed will kill in one day, but I can use a method to prolong this time to ten
days . ” Du Xiao Li said, “If in these ten days, we are unable to think of a solution, then even if the poison king
personally comes, there would be no hope . ”
“What, you can have the time prolonged to ten days?” Imperial Physician Hu said in surprise .
Du Xiao Li nodded and said, “I've been continuously researching the poison king's poison, so I more or less know
some of his habits in medicine . Ten days should be enough time to develop an antidote . ”
“Little Shan Zi . ” To the side, Han Ming Ze, upon hearing Du Xiao Li's words, called out .
“This servant is here . ”
“Have Xian Wang called in . ”
The door was opened, and Han Ming Yuan entered from outside . Upon seeing Du Xiao Li actually sitting by the
bedside, he inwardly thought to himself that she really did know medicine!
“Ming Yuan, this emperor has a task for you . ” Han Ming Ze said .
“This younger brother is here . ” Han Ming Yuan said with a slight bow .
“Go to Medicine King Valley to invite the medicine sage over . You must return within ten days!” Han Ming Ze said .
“Ten days!?” Han Ming Yuan lifted his head, wanting to look for signs of messing with him on Han Ming Ze's face .
But he also knew that right now wasn't the time for jokes .

“Yes, tell the medicine sage, the third princess is poisoned with the poison king's fire and ice poison . Miss Du has
prolonged the one day time limit to ten days, asking him to please rush over in ten days . Ming Yuan, the matter this
time is of upmost importance . The wellbeing of Feng Ming rests on you . ” Han Ming Ze said .
Du Xiao Li rubbed her own nose . Looks like this Han Ming Ze doesn't really believe in her!
However, anyone who sees her age probably all won't believe her, right?

“This younger brother will definitely have the medicine sage invited over on time . ” Han Ming Yuan firmly replied .
This Lu Jun Qi's matter concerned the relationship between the two countries . This bit, he still understood, but he
still inwardly grumbled inside . For this ten days round trip, he absolutely needed to rushed to Medicine King Valley
within three to four days, because from here to Medicine King Valley on horseback needed at least six days' time!
Then he could only use qinggong to fly there, because he definitely won't make it in time on horse back .
“Xian Wang, I'll try to see if I can have the time pushed back two more days . But at most, you can only have twelve
days!” Du Xiao Li looked to Han Ming Yuan and said .
Although she felt she can take care of this poison herself, but since Han Ming Ze wants to go invite the medicine
sage, then just go . She was also a bit curious towards this senior brother of hers . If she could borrow this
opportunity to meed him, then it wasn't bad either!
“Then this younger brother will be going first . ” Han Ming Yuan said to Han Ming Ze .
“Go then . ” Han Ming Ze waved his hand and said .
After Han Ming Yuan left, Han Ming Ze had his gaze shifted back on to Du Xiao and said, “Du Xiao Li, how are
you going to prolong this time to twelve days?”
Du Xiao Li extended her hand, and Xia Yuan immediately had the case in the bag handed to Du Xiao Li . Du Xiao
Li opened the case . Inside were two gloves and a small container . “Using this . ”
“This is?”
“This is silver needles . ” Du Xiao Li said, “Your Majesty, I'm going to be taking off the clothes and applying the
needles for the third princess, asking you all to please withdraw for a moment . ”
As soon as they heard she needed to take off Lu Jun Qi's clothes, the men in the room all went out . Although those
imperial physicians very much wanted to watch how Du Xiao Li was going to do it, but the third princess's purity
was just as important as her life, and they didn't want to have saved her life, yet also cause some other dispute!
Du Xiao Li let someone bring two basin of strong alcohol in, and then said to Le Yin, “Have your princess's clothes
stripped, and then use the alcohol to wipe down her entire body . ”
Le Yin had also seen quite a few things, following Lu Jun Qi . Although she was very tearfully crying, she still
moved according to Du Xiao Li's words and had Lu Jun Qi's clothes completely removed, then using a brocade
cloth, wiped down Lu Jun Qi's body once over .
Du Xiao Li used the other basin of alcohol to wash her hands, before putting on the gloves in the case . Xia Yuan
also put on the gloves after disinfecting her hands .
“Let's begin . ” Du Xiao Li nodded at Xia Yuan . Afterwards, using her right hand she pressed all over Lu Jun Qi's
body, before saying: “Number two . ”
Le Yin didn't know what Du Xiao Li meant with 'number two', but Xia Yuan to the side had already opened the case
and took out the number two acupuncture needle in side, and handed it to Du Xiao Li .
Du Xiao Li took the silver needle and inserted it into Lu Jun Qi's stomach . The silver needle very quickly turned
pure black .
“Such strong poison . ” Xia Yuan saw the silver needle's current color and said in surprise .
“En, this poison is indeed much stronger in toxicity than the poisons he's previously developed . ” Du Xiao Li said .
“What kind of person is this poison king?” Xia Yuan somewhat curiously said .
“Who knows? Perhaps a rotten old man!” Du Xiao Li unconcernedly said . She was interested in his poisons, but
towards him as a person, she wasn't the least bit interested .
“Achooo… . . ”
Thousands of miles away, in a certain water top pavilion, a twenty year old man with clothes whiter than snow, skin
like congealed fat, and features more beautiful than a woman's, suddenly let out a sneeze .
“Little brother Ning Yuan, what's wrong? Could it be that you played around too much yesterday and caught a
cold?” The person together with the man wearing white said with a laugh .
Bai Ning Yuan rubbed his own nose and said, “How can that be! I sense it's someone talking about me!”
“Haha, talking about you? Are the times where you, this poison king, get mentioned by people any less?” That
person burst into laughter .
“True, perhaps it's a beauty missing me!” Bai Ning Yuan leaned against the couch, with one hand propping his head,
and one hand holding a string of grapes . Placing the string of grapes by his mouth, he bit one off and said, “You're
even able to get a hold of something as uncommon as these grapes, truly amazing!”
