The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 5

Episode 5. Even deadly poison sometimes becomes medicine (2)

Helmet flower.

Ornamental flowering plant with beautiful purple flowers. But in reality, it is a poisonous plant with deadly poison in its roots. Thanks to this, it has been used to manufacture numerous poisons.

In Athens, Greece, possession without a permit is punishable by death. In Joseon, it was widely used as a medicine. Even in modern times, its toxicity has been used quite a bit.

What is a representative example?

‘I guess it’s something like the ‘helmet flower murder case’ that occurred in Japan in 1986.’

In any case, it could be said that the toxicity of the helmet flower has been properly proven throughout the East and West. There is a clear reason why Sir Gardin is casting his crazy, idiot-like gaze in this direction.

“…majesty?”

“uh.”

“Can I check to see if you have a fever?”

“I have a mild fever, but it’s not severe.”

“But Your Highness.”

“huh.”

“You shouldn’t give up hope yet.”

“I didn’t put it down.”

“Life is a beautiful thing, Your Majesty.”

“I know that too.”

“Life is precious.”

“I know.”

“So, Your Majesty, please never say again that you would eat such a vicious poisonous plant, okay?”

“Nope. “I’m going to eat it.”

“Zeueoeonhaa!”

“…Oh, Mr. It’s a surprise.”

Rachiel frowned.

“Lord Gardin. “Am I that untrustworthy?”

“That’s not true, Your Majesty. Do you-”

“Do you do it?”

“We cannot stand by and watch Your Majesty give up everything and ruin yourself like this. Because that is my duty and responsibility.”

“I’m doing this to help you fulfill your duties and responsibilities.”

“This is sophistry, Your Majesty. “After harming himself with a needle, he is now trying to commit suicide by poisoning himself!”

“…Whew. It’s not self-harm. It’s not suicide by poisoning. “It’s a healing process.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“We will weaken and control the toxic substances and use them as medicine.”

“yes?”

“Stop talking nonsense and bring it. “Give me 5 minutes.”

“…majesty.”

“If I’m late, I’ll really hurt myself.”

“…!”

“One, two….”

“Hehehehe!”

Sir Gardin, who had been holding on and holding on, eventually began to cry. Honestly, he couldn’t understand. The crown prince he served became strange.

To be exact, I fainted last night and things got really weird after I woke up. The tone of speech has changed. The eyes and expression changed somehow without knowing.

‘Even though he was a bit harsh before… at least he didn’t do anything crazy… haha.’

How did this happen? I heard that a person’s personality changes when they die. Is that true?

‘But this is so… severe.’

So suddenly everything changed. They tell me to bring a lot of needles in the middle of the night. In the end, why don’t you light a needle with a candle and stick it into your shoulder or forearm?

In particular, the most impressive thing is….

‘He looked like he felt something(?) while pricking himself with a needle!’

Yes.

It is certainly.

You enjoy harming yourself. Before you know it, you have surrendered yourself to the pleasure that pain brings. In that way, He crossed the river of no return.

‘Your Majesty…!’

Lord Gardin swallowed back tears sincerely.

I had no idea that a long struggle with illness could destroy a person so much. That I wasn’t good enough. They said they should have taken better care of the crown prince. I fell to my knees, weeping endlessly.

“majesty? “Can you please change your mind just once?”

“no. I have no intention of changing it. go back.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“Whew…”

Lord Gardin was already in tears. When I saw that, I sighed deeply. If you force them to do something, they won’t listen even if a knife is stuck in their throat.

In the end, Rachiel revealed some knowledge to Gardin.

“Lord Gardin.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“Listen carefully from now on. “I will tell you why I am looking for the helmet flower.”

“yes?”

“As you know, the roots of the pitchforest flower are deadly poisonous. In some foreign countries, the roots are classified into two types, and the one I want to eat is the root that extends from the hair root, or the root.”

“You mean rich… rich?”

“okay. the rich. Another exotic herbal medicine called Latin is Aconiti Lateralis Radix Preparata. It contains a lot of aconitine-based poisonous ingredients. That ingredient excites and paralyzes the brainstem and peripheral nerve endings. “It causes the parasympathetic nervous system to go into overdrive and eventually stops the heart.”

“….”

gulp.

Gardin’s uvula trembled up and down.

Rakiel continued his explanation calmly.

“But I know how to neutralize and control that poison. Don’t ask me how I know. “I have no intention of revealing it.”

“Are you saying it neutralizes the poison?”

“okay. “In foreign languages, that process is called legislation.”

“Legislation….”

“If you go through that process, you can use the poison of the rich as medicine that suits you.”

“Is that true?”

“No problem. “Would I lie?”

Rakiel chuckled.

Suddenly, I remembered the time when I was running an oriental medicine clinic in Korea. Even back then, there were times when the rich man was prescribed medicine. Of course, the rich man at the time had the help of a professional company.

“Fortunately, I know the legal method in detail. “Not just one way, but many ways.”

“….”

“That’s why I’m telling you to bring it. Do you understand it now?”

“…majesty.”

“uh.”

“To be honest, I don’t accept it at all.”

“….”

“This is my first time hearing about it.” I don’t know where the source is or if it’s a reliable fact. But…”

“But?”

“If you use it as medicine as you said, are you sure it will help your health?”

“No matter what medicine you use, you can’t be 100 percent sure. Because that’s what medicine is. But at least I don’t think it will cause any harm. “I think there’s an answer at this point.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“Then what is your answer?”

“…I will bring the helmet flower as you ordered.”

Sir Gardin made up his mind.

In fact, he knew the crown prince’s recent state of health better than anyone else. It was getting worse day by day. Didn’t take any medicine. These days were a time of despair.

If only I could.

If only possible.

I wanted to try everything as if grasping at straws. Maybe that was why.

‘Legislative system. ‘Is it worth trying at least once?’

I wanted to have some hope. I wanted to at least try something.

‘Instead, once the legal process is over, I will eat it before Your Highness to check that it is safe.’

Only then will the crown prince be allowed to take it. Having made up his mind, he left the bedroom with solemn eyes. It was about 10 minutes later that he came back holding a beautiful bunch of helmet flower roots.

“Your Majesty, I’m not sure how much you want, so I brought it all for now.”

“good job. “Now, bring two large basins, fill them with clear water, and a bag of salt.”

“Is this a necessary item for the legal system?”

“of course.”

“Please wait a moment.”

Preparations were well underway. Two large basins filled with clear water were placed in the middle of the bedroom.

It was from then on.

“Now then, dissolve salt in water.”

“How much do I have to solve?”

“Lots of chang.”

“…What if it’s a big bowl?”

“Pour it up. “Until I tell you to stop.”

“I understand, Your Majesty.”

Ssaaaa-!

A large amount of salt was poured into the bag.

Rakiel checked the salt concentration by dipping the water with his finger.

“Okay then, let’s soak it now. entire.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Chambang Chambang!

Sir Gardin moved faithfully and soaked the roots of the helmet flower in salt water.

The work didn’t end there. Rachiel summoned the attendants from the villa. I handed them each a piece of paper.

“From now on, you will have to search through the garden of this villa.”

“…yes?”

The attendants looked puzzled.

Searching through the garden.

That wide place?

For what?

It was as if he was saying.

Well, it could have been that way.

It’s a garden, but the garden of this villa was incredibly vast. As an administrative district in Korea, the area is about the size of one dong. Or the bustling arboretum in Gapyeong, Gyeonggi-do, which I once visited with a girl? Perhaps that will be enough.

Maybe it’s more than that. This was because it was also used as a hunting ground for the entertainment of the royal family.

Rachiel looked around at the servants and said.

“We each got a piece of paper, right? There will be a picture drawn. “Just bring a plant that looks exactly like the picture.”

He divided his servants into two groups. One group was sent to the west side of the garden. It was an area where a dry area was created through magic.

“If you have a shrub that looks exactly like the picture, pull it up whole.”

Meanwhile, another group was sent east. It was a forest connected to the foot of a mountain where spring was maintained all year round by magic.

“You just need to bring the grass like the picture.”

He did not forget to send out two groups of servants and give them a harsh request.

“It may take a few days. However, the first person in each group to get what I want will be rewarded with a piece of gold in the name of the crown prince. So everyone, please work hard.”

“…!”

The servants’ eyes brightened.

It was thanks to that bold investment(?).

Satisfactory results were obtained in half a day.

That evening, Rachiel looked at the medicinal herbs brought by the servants with satisfaction.

“Ephedra plant….”

Ephedra (麻黃) is a bush that grows naturally in dry areas such as Inner Mongolia in northern China. Jokduri grass is a grass that spreads out heart-shaped leaves in the shade of trees in mountainous regions.

‘I didn’t know these were really in the garden.’

Just in case.

It would be really nice if there was one.

The servants were sent out with the feeling of winning the lottery. However, this unexpected result was achieved.

‘Great. It went really well.’

Ephedra and Jokduri grass.

Both were herbal medicines that had been used quite a bit in Korea. It was also a medicine that had an amazing compatibility with rich people.

It was from then on.

Rakiel became even more enthusiastic and tried to manipulate Sir Gardin.

“Hmm, the rich man was soaked in salt water?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“So what should we do now?”

“I don’t know, Your Highness.”

“I don’t know. “Just do what I tell you.”

“What if you do it?”

“Let’s take the rich man out and hang him by the window. “In a sunny spot.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Quake quake quake!

Sir Gardin worked diligently and made a fortune. What if half a day passes and evening comes?

“The rich man dried well in the sun. So what now?”

“Can I just do what Your Highness tells me?”

“of course. Soak rich.”

“…yes?”

“Soak it again. In salt water. with a plop.”

Chambang Chambang!

Sir Gardin put the dried rich man back into salt water. And when the morning comes.

“Take out Sir Gardin and hand him over.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Chop chop!

When night comes.

“Soak me rich.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Splash splash!

When morning comes.

“Lay out.”

“yep!”

Cheap chook!

When night comes again.

“Soak.”

“yes!”

Chambang!

Rachiel’s diligent hand gestures.

Lord Gardin’s dedicated labor.

The two of them worked hard like a treadmill.

It’s been five days since we repeatedly soaked the father and son in salt water and dried them. Finally, we started to see changes.

‘Feel so good.’

Rachiel clenched her fists as she looked at the father and son dried in the sun. Before I knew it, salt crystals had formed all over the outside of the bag. The rich man himself was considerably stronger than before.

I finally felt confident.

‘It’s done.’

Legislation has been completed.

So what now?

‘I can make decoction.’

Removing the toxicity of the rich.

Bring out the medicinal effects of ma huang and seshin.

I started preparing a decoction that would create exquisite synergy.

Of course, Rakiel didn’t know until then.

Makohwangbujasesintang (麻黃附子細辛湯) that he prepares himself. What unexpected effects will this decoction reveal? And the fact that you will gain the secret power of the Magentano royal family that you never expected in your dreams.
