Chapter 534 The grateful victims
Everyone ignored Liu Xi's objections and helped him sit down. Luo Lan opened his trousers and raised his hand to pull out the silver needle, but found that the area around the needle had turned black.
She blurted out immediately,
"No, this silver needle is poisonous."
As soon as she said these words, everyone present took a deep breath, and Zhang Yuan also ran back with others at this time.
"Princess, those two men in black are gone. It seems that the person they want to kill is not the emperor, but Eunuch Liu."
Hearing this, Luo Lan frowned in surprise.
"No matter what, it's important to treat Eunuch Liu's poison first. Everyone, hurry up and help Eunuch Liu to the ear room."
Everyone did not dare to neglect, and helped Eunuch Liu into the bed in the side room. After everyone retreated, Eunuch Liu, who was full of energy just now, felt drowsy in just a moment.
.
Before he passed out, he looked at Luo Lan and begged in a low voice,
"Princess Yu, if...if the old slave dies, please...please take care of the emperor..."
As soon as he finished saying this, he passed out.
Luo Lan was very touched by his loyalty.
She didn't dare to think too much, took him into the operating room as quickly as possible, and began to prepare for his operation.
No matter what kind of poison he is poisoned, as long as the poison is stopped in time before it penetrates into the internal organs, his life will not be in danger.
The poison that Eunuch Liu received was in his ankles, so all the poisoned flesh around the silver needles must be cleaned out in time.
Luo Lan quickly gave Eunuch Liu anesthesia and began to operate on him.
Since Liu Xi was poisoned for a short period of time, the operation went smoothly and the poison on his body was quickly removed. However, more flesh was cut off on his ankle, so he needed to lie in bed to rest.
After treating his wound, Luo Lan moved him out of the operating room and then shouted to the people outside:
"Someone is coming!"
Xiao Lizi and another little eunuch ran in, and Luo Lan ordered them both:
"Eunuch Liu's foot injury is serious. You are here to serve him. He cannot get off the ground or move around. When he wakes up, he must tell me."
Xiao Lizi asked with some worry:
"Princess, Eunuch Liu...is he okay?"
"My life was saved, but my foot injury will take some time to heal."
Hearing this, Xiao Lizi breathed a long sigh of relief, clenched his fists, and said solemnly:
"Thank you very much, Princess Yu, for saving Eunuch Liu's life."
Luo Lan nodded to him and smiled softly, then turned around and walked towards the door.
After all this trouble, it was already early in the morning, and Luo Lan had no intention of going back to his room to sleep. He simply stood at the door and stared at the stars in the sky in a daze.
I haven't been back to Prince Yu's Mansion for a few days, and I don't know if Huaiyu, a silly boy, has come out to look at the stars at night again.
And An An and Lele, they must miss me very much.
Thinking of this, she let out a long sigh and prayed silently in her heart, hoping that the emperor would wake up soon and that she could return to Prince Yu's Mansion soon and live the peaceful days she longed for.
…
After failing to assassinate Liu Xi, the two men in black knelt down in front of Leng Xi and lowered their heads to the ground.
Leng Xi looked at the two of them, suddenly waved his hands and asked loudly,
"You talk loud and clear, why did it fail?"
"Your Majesty, just when we were about to succeed, Zhang Yuan suddenly jumped out and rescued him. But don't worry, Liu Xi was hit by my silver needle. The silver needle was poisonous. If he doesn't receive timely treatment, no one will survive.
In a short time, he will be poisoned and die."
"Hmph! Who is the person in the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart? Luo Lan, the first goddess of healing in Daning Kingdom, what poison can't be cured with her here? I ask you to kill a eunuch, but you can't even deal with a mere Zhang Yuan, so what's left for you?
use?"
When the two men in black saw this, they quickly put their heads on the ground.
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I made a mistake this time. Let's go again tomorrow night."
"Hmph! If you don't succeed once, they have already taken precautions. If you go again, you will undoubtedly die..."
"Your Majesty..."
The two men in black seemed a little scared. They were afraid that if they failed to complete their mission this time, Leng Xi would punish them.
Leng Xi pondered for a while and said with a cold face:
"Liu Xi has been hit by your silver needle. He must not be afraid anymore. There is no need to assassinate him anymore. You should be prepared and obey orders at any time."
When the two men in black heard the news, they kowtowed as if they were receiving amnesty.
"Thank you, Lord Xi, for giving us another chance."
"Don't be too happy too early. The person I asked you to kill this time is much more powerful than Liu Xi. If you miss, don't come back and kill yourself. Otherwise, you will harm your family."
Hearing this, the faces of the two men in black darkened, and then they clasped their fists and replied solemnly:
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, my subordinates will definitely work hard to complete the mission this time."
Leng Xi breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand directly,
"Stay back. I will tell you when we will take action and who the target will be."
When the two men in black saw this, they hurriedly got up from the ground and ran away like a whirlwind.
Through the weak light, it can be seen that there is an insidious look in Leng Xi's eyes.
He had already learned that Leng Yu would personally go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to provide disaster relief. As soon as he left, he would take action, kill him and seize the throne with ease.
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, with a proud look on his face.
…
Early the next morning, Leng Yu sat in front of Lin Dong, looked at the thin man, and asked solemnly:
"If you were given the job of governor, would you be able to do it?"
Lin Dong was stunned for a moment and looked at him with puzzled eyes.
"My lord, what did you just say?"
"I asked you to be the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, will you be qualified? Can you guarantee that you will benefit the people of Jiangsu and Zhejiang?"
This time Lin Dong heard Leng Yu's words clearly, and sweat began to form on his forehead. He shook his head vigorously,
"I'm just a seventh-level county magistrate. How dare I... how dare I become a governor? Prince Yu... don't scare the villain..."
Leng Yu looked at him seriously,
"I'm not scaring you. I've been looking for someone to investigate in the past two days. During my tenure as governor, I harmed the people, was greedy, and only thought about myself. Such a person is not worthy of being an official. I have ordered someone to escort him.
I'm back in Beijing, waiting for interrogation by the Ministry of Justice. The position of governor in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is now vacant. If you can guarantee to bring benefits to the people of this area, I will appoint you as governor. Are you willing to do it?"
Lin Dong seemed to not understand. He looked at Leng Yu and saw that he was not joking. He knelt down and kowtowed.
"As long as Prince Yu trusts him, Lin Dong will wholeheartedly benefit the people and will never enrich himself."
Leng Yu nodded with satisfaction,
"Okay, in that case, when you return to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, you will take office. The appointment decree will be sent before you take office. I hope you will not disappoint me."
Lin Dong nodded gratefully as if in a dream,
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Lin Dong will definitely fulfill his mission..."
"Well, by the way, let me tell you that we will be on the road early tomorrow morning. I will personally escort the silver to the homes of the people affected by the disaster in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. We will build houses for them, reclaim the land, control water and dig canals. No more people will starve to death."
Hearing this, Lin Dong's eyes suddenly filled with tears. He didn't have time to say thank you, so he ran to the door and shouted loudly to the people waiting at the door:
"Everyone, come and thank Prince Yu. He will take us back to our hometown tomorrow, build us houses, repair canals for us, and reclaim the washed-out land for us. We can hope to return home!"
Hearing this, these slender people suddenly cheered. Everyone knelt down and shouted,
"Thank you so much, Prince Yu. Prince Yu is dedicated to the people, which is a blessing to the people and a blessing to the country of Daning..."
Looking at the longing eyes of these people, Leng Yu's eyes suddenly turned red.
He had also had this feeling of looking forward to living, but the person who saved him was his Lan'er.
Thinking of Lan'er, he decided to go see her before leaving, otherwise he would always feel uneasy.
