It was nighttime.
Inside the small woodshed of the ghastly Chonghua Palace.
Zheng Ru lay on the icy floor as she sensed death drawing near.
It felt as if her whole body was situated inside a smelting furnace. Her whole body was so scalding hot that it seemed as if it wanted to burn up from inside out.
The Royal Physician Building's doctors were able to treat the burns on her skin, but they all practically had their hands tied in regards to the heat poison inside her body.
Heat poison? When did she ever get poisoned with that?
When Zheng Ru heard this diagnosis, even she was practically unable to believe it.
After all, as someone who dwelled within the palace, who didn't take their meals every day with extreme care?
So how in the world did she get poisoned?
Creak. Zheng Ru's neck was also seriously injured from this severe explosion, and she couldn't even raise it at this point.
