Hearing Ying Che's inner thoughts, Ying Zheng's face changed.
What was that?
I was poisoned long ago?
Furthermore, the pills that I eat have always been poisonous. Even the bronze cauldron that I use every day may contain poison?
How was this possible?
His first reaction.
Ying Zheng did not believe it.
However, she remembered that she was listening to Ying Che's inner thoughts.
Ying Che had no need to lie in his heart. Besides, he had indeed been getting more and more powerless over the years. Ying Zheng's heart sank.
However, the pills he ate were poisonous.
He was still unwilling to believe it.
Because after he consumed the medicinal pill, his spirit had indeed improved a lot, and his body was also much more relaxed than usual.
He did not think that there was a problem with the pill.
As for the fact that the bronze ware was poisonous, he did not believe it at all.
Bronze ware became popular during the Xia and Shang Dynasties. It was also from then on that the sound of bells and the sound of cauldrons entering the daily life of the princes and ministers. If it was really poisonous, how could it have not been discovered for hundreds of thousands of years and allowed to be passed down?
This was simply impossible!
Ying Che was lying!
Ying Zheng's gaze turned cold as he looked at Ying Che.
Ying Che also felt the change in Ying Zheng's gaze, and he was shocked.
F * ck.
What was going on?
Emperor Shi wouldn't think that I wanted to harm him, right?
If I really wanted to harm you, would I have told you the method to test for poison with silver needles? Will you pay more attention to your daily diet?
It was impossible!
and
Now, everyone in Great Qin knows that you're here. If you die here, I won't be able to defend myself. Do I look that stupid?
Damn it.
He must have taken too much poison, which affected his intelligence.
It was true. These kings ate with the sound of bells and the sound of cauldrons every day, so they did not know that the bronze cauldron was poisonous. At most, they would let the eunuchs try it every time before eating it. However, this was useless. The poison contained in the bronze cauldron was very small, and it would not take effect for a short period of time.
When the poison took effect.
No one would think that this person had died from poisoning. They would only think that he had suddenly contracted a disease or that he had been afflicted with an ominous disease and died without treatment.
The medical technology in this era did not support it.
In addition.
People nowadays placed too much importance on the dead.
The concept of one's body, hair, and skin being inherited from one's parents was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Even if some people knew that the deceased had died an unnatural death, in order to let the dead rest in peace, they would not perform an autopsy on the deceased. Therefore, no one would find out that the person had died of poisoning.
Sigh!
The road is long and long, and I will search up and down.
Great Qin still had a long way to go!
I also need to work harder!
Hearing Ying Che's words, Ying Zheng's heart was slightly shaken.
It was because what Ying Che said was probably true.
The dead are the most important.
This wasn't just a casual remark.
It had been passed down since ancient times.
Moreover, starting from the Zhou Dynasty, the concept of one's body, hair, and skin being inherited from one's parents had become more and more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
This also caused the commoners to attach great importance to the integrity of the body.
For example, the punishments in the laws of the Qin Dynasty, such as engraving words on the face, cutting off the nose, and removing the hair, might not seem heavy, but they were actually very heavy, especially psychologically.
Because of this.
Unless it was a very special situation, the Qin Dynasty would rarely dissect corpses.
This was what Ying Che meant when he said that one was poisoned without knowing it. Even if someone died suddenly, everyone would find a suitable reason to 'cover up' for him so that he could rest in peace.
Ying Zheng's face turned a little ugly.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Ying Che was right.
However, he couldn't find any murderer at all. After thinking about it, he could only helplessly curse in his heart,'Worldly beliefs kill people!'
An hour later.
Wang Ben came back with a serious face.
He glanced at Ying Che, then bowed to Ying Zheng and said,""Your Majesty, I've already gone to the kitchen to test it. It's indeed as young master Che said.”
"Silver needles can indeed detect poison!"
"As long as the silver needle comes into contact with something poisonous, the tip of the needle will turn black.”
"Without exception!"
"Your Majesty, with Young Master Che's silver needles to test for poison, Your Majesty no longer has to worry about food poisoning or being secretly poisoned.”
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Ying Zheng slightly nodded, but there was not much joy on his face.
If it was any other time.
He would definitely be overjoyed to get the silver needles.
But now, after hearing Ying Che's inner thoughts, he felt his heart sink.
He even had the urge to return to Xianyang to test if the bronze ware he was using was really poisonous, but he resisted it.
A silver needle.
It was not worth it for him to return to Xianyang.
"Che 'er, you're so thoughtful." Ying Zheng looked at Ying Che and said with a smile.”
"This is what your son should do. It's just that Imperial Father's noodles have been placed for too long and are a little clumped. Your son will go to the kitchen and make another serving for Imperial Father.”Ying Che said.
Ying Zheng shook his head.
"No need."
"You've been busy all day. Go and rest.”
"Zhen wants to be quiet!"
A professional smile appeared on Ying Che's face.
"Then enjoy your meal, Imperial Father."
"If Imperial Father has something to say, just call your son.”
"Your son will take his leave first!"
After saying that, Ying Che slowly left the hall.
Wang Ben looked at the crumpled noodles and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He hesitated for a moment before asking,"Your Majesty, do you want to test the noodles?”
Ying Zheng shook his head.
"No need."
"Ying Che doesn't have the guts."
"He wouldn't dare!"
Wang Ben nodded, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat his noodles clumsily. Ying Zheng did not have much of an appetite, so he put down his chopsticks after finishing a few pieces of beef on his noodles.
He was still thinking about what Ying Che had said.
After a long time.
" Wang Ben, let me ask you a question," Ying Zheng asked." Do you think the bronze wares I usually eat are poisonous?"”
Wang Ben was stunned.
Then, he grinned." That's naturally impossible. Bronze utensils have always been exclusive to the princes and ministers. If they were really poisonous, they would have been discovered long ago. How could they still be regarded as the status symbol of the princes and ministers?”
"And the bronze cauldron used by His Majesty is the best of the best.”
"It can't be poisonous."
"Your Majesty, you're overthinking!"
