Croton is a laxative, facing its own disease, so what's going on with that leaf?

Zhu Youcheng asked: "If someone takes croton, can Mr. Yu see from his pulse?"

"Croton is a medicine for tigers and wolves. Not to mention me, even an ordinary doctor can find it out of his pulse. {[}"

Wu Xiaojie clearly reminded himself that these two serious illnesses were caused by poisoning, but not by Croton, so the leaf must have a deep meaning. It seems that we have to start from the leaves.

Zhu Youcheng murmured: "Croton, laxatives, leaves...senna!"

His eyes lit up and he remembered a Chinese medicine - senna leaf. Senna leaf is a herb from the Gentiles. Its effects are similar to Croton, but it is not as toxic as Croton. It is usually used for laxatives when constipated. Dengzhou is a harbor, so it must be available in the pharmacy shop. Wu Xiaojie informed him that it was the best to throw a senna leaf, but it may be because he was afraid that someone would tell his secret, or because he did not recognize this imported herb, so he used Croton plus leaves to remind himself.

Zhu Youcheng asked: "Mr. Yu, does the medicine shop in Dengzhou have senna?"

"Mr. Zhu is indeed well-known and knows even this herb bought from Fanbian. Yes, the pharmacy shop in Dengzhou does have senna. Do you think your disease is caused by senna? There is a possibility that senna is a magical leaf. It can make people diarrhea, but it is not a poison. Some people with dry stools and prone to constipation may even take it for a long time. No wonder the adult's pulse was so strange at that time, and he had no problems at all, because he was not sick at the time, just took senna."

"Mr. Yu, I have a lot of studies and have never heard of honey and seafood eating together, so I will get sick. But I heard that seafood cannot be eaten with sour food. The cases that Mr. Yu has encountered before may be allergic to seafood. Some people cannot eat seafood due to physical condition. Once they eat it, they will feel uncomfortable all over the body, and in severe cases, they may even die. This situation has nothing to do with honey. Six people went there that day. It is impossible that everyone is not suitable for seafood. So I suspect that we ate senna and the dose is very large."

Yu Jiayan nodded and said, "Sir, your speculation makes sense. At that time, the pulse of the six of you was very normal, but they had diarrhea. It was very similar to eating senna."

"Does Mr. Yu know senna? Especially its smell."

Yu Jiayan's face was glamorous and said, "I have been immersed in medicine for many years, no matter what kind of medicinal herb it is. I can recognize it with my nose."

"Please check my food. I suspect that Li Song's purpose this time is not simple. In order to make the official lie down, the dosage he used must be very large, and Mr. Yu must be easy to find out..."

When Zhu Youcheng was chattering and reminding him, Yu Jiayan raised the tea cup on the table and said, "Sir, I found it, it's in your cup of tea."

Zhu Youcheng was dumbfounded. Why is he so fast? He is worthy of being a miracle doctor.

"The purity is so high. If you don't want to smell it, you might as well not be a doctor. Master Zhu guessed that the efficacy of senna is very low. Even if you take more than 10 or 20 tablets raw, it is impossible for adults to pull it for ten days. I guess they used a large amount of senna to purify laxatives that are no less than that of croton. This cup of tea. Even after taking the elephant, it will have to fall down, let alone you, sir?"

"This Li Song, does he want to rebel?" Zhu Youcheng's teeth choked, and he was racing against time. Because Juehua Island has a lot of people and food, it is impossible to evacuate them all at once. It is better to evacuate one day earlier and safe one day earlier. Li Song used poison to keep him in Dengzhou. What's the matter? Did he collude with Jiannu and deliberately leave himself here so that he could rob the grain and kill people?

Li Song was a civil servant in the second rank and the highest rank of the imperial court. Zhu Yuanzhang was a stingy emperor. After deciding to the policy of using civil servants to control military affairs, he was afraid that civil servants would become over, so he abolished the prime minister. Therefore, the civil servants had the highest rank to the second rank. If they wanted to take another step, they could only be awarded the title of Three Dukes or Three Orphans. However, these Three Dukes and Three Orphans were generally honored for the dead, and few living people would enjoy such treatment.

No matter how awesome Zhu Youcheng is, Zhu Youcheng is unable to take him down. Zhu Youcheng squeezed his fists and then, and finally sat down dejectedly. Forget it, he will suffer a loss secretly. It will be no late for a gentleman to take revenge. He is going to Juehua Island to evacuate the islanders first, and then slowly deal with Li Song.

Zhu Youcheng put away the tea, this is evidence and cannot be ruined.

The next day, Zhu Youcheng rushed to the governor's office as if nothing had happened.

Li Song was shocked when he saw him, and even the two walnuts on his hand fell to the ground. He immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Zhu is healthy and radiant, and I am stunned by this. If this official is a woman, I will definitely not marry you."

"If women all look like Lord Li's virtue, Mr. Zhu will never marry him for life." Zhu Youcheng had no intention of joking with him, and said coldly, "Yesterday, Lord Li asked me to come to the governor's office to discuss the issue of sending troops, and I came as an appointment."

Li Song smiled awkwardly and said, "I had already informed General Denglai yesterday to come here early today to discuss, why haven't he come yet?"

As he said that, he ordered his personal soldiers to invite General Denglai, and then he asked the servants to serve tea.

Zhu Youcheng looked at the exquisite tea set and said, "I have traveled all over the country and have never seen such exquisite tea sets. Please give up your love."

Li Song didn't understand why, and smiled and said, "Since lord like this kind of teacup so much, I will give you a whole set, six teacups and a teapot. This is a fine porcelain produced by the official kiln in Jingdezhen. It's true that adults have good eyesight."

"No need to be so troublesome. I am not greedy, just one thing is enough."

As he said that, Zhu Youcheng did not open the lid of the teacup, but directly connected the tray and the cup, and handed it to a guard. The guard took the cup, did not pour out the tea inside, and put it directly into a small wooden box.

Li Song's complexion changed slightly because the cup of tea was not simple, and the ingredients were added.

Li Song was uneasy. He didn't know if Zhu Youcheng saw that there was something wrong with the tea and left it as evidence, or if he was greedy and fell in love with this tea cup and took advantage of it.

Li Song took the tea set from the subordinate with his left hand and handed it to the guard holding the wooden box, saying, "How can I get a new one for Lord Zhu? I, Li Song, have always been generous. I, sent an old tea cup out, wouldn't it make others laugh at me as an iron rooster?"

As he said that, he stretched out his other hand to pick up the wooden box.

Zhu Youcheng's guards only followed his orders, so how could Li Song take away the wooden box? The two of them pushed and picked it up, but they refused to let go.

Zhu Youcheng said in a sequel: "Does Lord Li want to let the rob? It will have an impact on your official voice when it is spread. Who dares to enter your governor's yamen next time?"

Li Song smiled and had to retract his hand. He said angrily, who can rob? It is clearly you who put it in the robbery. Why did my teacup become yours when it comes to your hands? Is there any kingly way?

The two sat and stared at each other. Li Song was in a bad mood to drink tea, and Zhu Youcheng didn't dare to drink tea.

After sitting for a while, Li Song couldn't hold back his anger and said to himself: "Why haven't you invited the general? I'll send another personal soldier to shout, Humph. A general is so arrogant."

In fact, no matter how much he waited, he could not wait for General Denglai. Because Li Song had long hinted to the first personal soldier who reported the message, he would not go to find General Denglai and just sway around. However, if Zhu Youcheng did not drink the tea he added, he could not poison Zhu Youcheng, so he had to send the second personal soldier to find General Denglai.

After a while, General Denglai arrived in a hurry. Before entering the door, he laughed boldly and said, "Has Mr. Zhu's illness finally cured? It's so good. Now we can send troops to rescue the people from the fire and water."

After General Denglai sat down, Zhu Youcheng said: "You two have seen the emperor's imperial edict. Now I will take 5,000 cavalry across the sea to Juehua Island. Let's see what should be arranged?"

General Denglai said: "I have a suggestion, that is, not to go on water, and go to Liaodong along the land. The sea is windy and waves are harsh, and if the ships capsize, the soldiers will only die. The soldiers in the Xizhenfusi of Jinyiwei are all army, not naval forces, and the sea route is inappropriate. In fact, the land route from here to Liaodong is very close, only 1,800 miles, and the lord leads cavalry. Walking two hundred miles a day is like playing, but it will take only ten days to reach Liaodong, and you will be able to win."

General Denglai's attitude was pertinent and he was a little taught tone.

Two hundred miles? I don’t understand military affairs, right? The cavalry’s daily travel speed is only 80 to 100 miles. Yes, in history, some cavalry can travel 150 to 180 miles a day, but it is a single and two horse, or a single and three horses. Like the Xizhen Fushi, how can one person and one horse run two hundred miles a day?

Zhu Youcheng didn't argue and said coldly: "Do you want to change the route set by the emperor?"

Li Song said: "Of course not. However, the general is outside and the king is not obeyed. The general's words make sense. Land is safer than water. From a strategic perspective, it is better to land."

"Mr. Li, if I change to land, will you help me with the crime of not following the order? Come on, write down the document and I change to land immediately."

Li Song did not dare to write such a document, and he laughed dryly.

General Denglai said: "Since lord insists on going on the water route, we can't force it. However, the decision of the water route is required by the Dinglai Naval Division. Why not let us listen to the opinions of the deputy general in charge of the naval division."

Zhu Youcheng nodded, and Li Song ordered someone to invite Deputy General Denglai immediately.

The deputy general was a middle-aged man with a gloomy face. When he heard Zhu Youcheng insist on walking on the water, he squeezed an ugly smile on his face and said, "Mr. Zhu really has a keen eye to recognize the pearls. The sea route is very dangerous in the eyes of most people. In fact, it is not, the sea route is quite safe. Now, except for the Ming Navy, there are no other naval troops in the entire Bohai Bay. Even if Jiannu wants to attack, he has to wait until they learn to build a ship."

Li Song and General Denglai stared at the deputy general and kept winking at him. Zhu Youcheng looked at him, sneering in his heart, but he remained silent.

Judging from the situation I just talked, the reason why Li Song poisoned was to stop him from walking on the water. Although there was a reason, I don’t know yet, Zhu Youcheng did not think that the deputy general would play against the governor Denglai, and he would definitely have a trick behind him. After all, the deputy general was invited by the governor Denglai, so he would not invite someone to embarrass himself. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
