Chapter 913: Long Yang Felt Like Something Was Wrong With Him
Long Yang folded up Lu Liangwei’s handkerchief neatly. He examined the clean, white cloth in his hand which had no images or embroideries on it, and felt a tightness in his chest.
An image flashed in his mind.
It felt like he had folded the exact same handkerchief once upon a time and had cherished it greatly, keeping it in his pocket.
He would also take it out often to look at it, to inhale its scent…
He was momentarily stunned as he stared at the handkerchief in his hand. He forced himself to not place the handkerchief close to his face to smell it.
An unhappy look appeared on his face when he realized what he had been about to do.
He placed his palm on his forehead, suddenly feeling like something was wrong with him.
Could he really be infected by a parasitic venom and lost a portion of his memories?
Ling Lihua continued, “This parasitic venom is capable of inducing madness. The victim would become easily angered and even harm the people around them. It could even cause them to lose their memories. However, it looks like His Majesty did not lose all of his memories. From the diagnosis, it is apparent that His Majesty had previously taken medication that helps make him impervious to hundreds of poisons, but parasitic venom is decocted using parasites and insects. Strictly speaking, it isn’t classified in the same class as the usual poisons we know, which is why His Majesty’s medication was only able to partially suppress the toxin from the parasitic venom.”
This realization hit Lu Liangwei.
No wonder His Majesty was not reduced to a state of madness. The pill she had given him previously had come into effect.
Lu Liangwei met her mother’s questioning gaze and explained, “His Majesty was diagnosed with Frostbite previously and I had specially distilled an antidote for him which included Phantom Bluegrass as an ingredient. I’ve also given him medicinal materials that made him immune to many poisons.”
Ling Lihua nodded. “No wonder. It’s lucky you did that, otherwise, it would not be as simple as His Majesty losing some of his memories. His Majesty may have been infected with parasitic venom, but he is not deeply poisoned because he had taken a special medicine that counters numerous poisons.”
Lu Liangwei’s heart sank suddenly. Whoever poisoned him must be truly out to get him.
Was this person’s goal to destroy His Majesty?
Right at that moment, Zhao Qian entered from outside. “Your Majesty, Your Highness, the Grand Princess and the Prince are here.”
Lu Liangwei snapped out of her thoughts to reply, “Please invite them in immediately.”
Long Qingzhi and Wanyan Zhi entered soon after.
Long Qingzhi did not carry her son today. She was holding his little hand instead as both mother and son entered.
Long Yang looked a little shocked when he saw them. “Royal Sister?”
Long Qingzhi had no idea what had happened. All Zhao Qian told her was that the Empress had invited both mother and son into the Palace to catch up on things.
Long Qingzhi did not think much of it when she heard Long Yang call out to her. “Brother.”
“When did you return?” Long Yang’s eyes narrowed. He had no idea about the previous events.
Long Qingzhi realized something was wrong when she heard this. She looked at him in shock. “Brother, what’s wrong with you? Don’t you remember? You were the one who came to pick us up from the frontier.”
Long Yang massaged himself between the eyes. His mind was still a mess and he could not recall what she was speaking of.
He knew his Royal Sister would never lie to him.
That must mean that it was true that he had lost some of his memories.
Lu Liangwei approached Wanyan Zhi and crouched in front of him. She looked him straight in the eyes and, after making some light talk on non-related matters, she cut to the main point. “Zhi’er, did you feed your uncle something yesterday night?”
She tried her best to sound gentle.
Long Qingzhi looked at Lu Liangwei with slight shock when she heard this.
What did Weiwei mean? Why was she asking Zhi’er such a question?
Wanyan Zhi looked at her blankly before shaking his head. “I didn’t feed Uncle anything.”
His voice was adorable and child-like. He looked extremely innocent as he blinked his dark, clear eyes.
Lu Liangwei could not bear asking him more questions when she saw this.
She paused before holding his little hands. “Zhi’er, think about this.”
Wanyan Zhi continued shaking his head. “I didn’t.”
Lu Liangwei frowned slightly and gave it more thought. She changed her question. “Well then, can Zhi’er remember what you touched yesterday night?”
