Chapter 16: His Hope
"What are you doing here?" Jun Su also asked in the same surprised tone.
"I'll ...... Look at her...... King Chengping walked up to Jun Su and saluted: "Your Majesty, why did you come here?" β
"Him?" Jun Su did not answer King Chengping's question, but looked at King Chengping who was standing outside the door and said, "Which one is he?" β
"Yuexi." King Chengping pointed to the large bags of medicinal herbs on the table with a feather fan and said softly: "She went to the Jinjin Pavilion and suffered internal injuries. β
"You hurt him!" Jun Su's hand grabbed a bag of herbs and suddenly forced, and the paper containing the herbs was torn by him, and the herbs inside were immediately scattered on the table.
"No, I didn't make a move." King Chengping looked at Jun Su's faintly bruised hand, and his usual smile disappeared from his face: "But she broke my two powerful subordinates as soon as she made a move." β
Jun Su seemed to be relieved, and his two delicate eyebrows were still frowning: "You checked his details?" β
King Chengping walked slowly to the table, picked up the medicinal herbs scattered on the table, and stuffed them back from the hole in the broken medicine bag: "It's been almost a year since the opening of the Jinjin Pavilion, and there are more people staring at it in the capital. β
Jun Su sat on the chair next to him and waved at King Chengping: "Sit down and tell me why he went to the Gold Elimination Pavilion."
King Chengping nodded and sat down sideways and continued: "She said that she wanted to do some serious business with her friends, but she lacked capital and silver, and she heard that the Consumer Gold Pavilion could make a lot of money, so she went." β
Jun Su lowered his eyes and listened to him without saying a word, and when he heard this, he suddenly smiled and said in a low voice: "I have never seen a person like him who is obsessed with money, and for a peach blossom, he also blackmailed me for five thousand taels of silver......
Didn't Yue Xi go to the Spending Gold Pavilion to bet on five thousand taels of silver tickets?
That day, she squatted on the ground with an internal injury, and finally ran back to the kitchen because of her own words, picked up the stack of silver tickets and checked them carefully, what she really wanted to see was only the five thousand taels of silver tickets, right?
Unconsciously, King Chengping forgot to shake the feather fan in his hand, and he raised his eyes to look at Jun Su......
"King Chengping?" Jun Su met his eyes and asked puzzledly.
"Huh!" King Chengping raised his head and smiled, and when he looked at Jun Su again, he had a crooked look of eyebrows: "Su, how long has it been since you called me a big brother?" β
Jun Su was stunned, and after thinking about it seriously, he shook his head: "I don't remember." β
"Our Ying's lineage is also withering more and more." King Chengping looked away and said in a very light voice: "My mother said that Han Xiang has already mentioned it to the Queen Mother, and I hope you and Hua Chao will get married soon." β
"This is what my queen mother told you to persuade me, right?" Jun Su sneered and looked at the door of the kitchen: "She is looking forward to me getting married as soon as possible, and she can set up a descendant of any clan as soon as possible, as long as she listens to her......"
"Majesty!" King Chengping's feather fan pressed on Jun Su's two thin lips, blocking his unspoken words: "You have endured it for so many years......"
Jun Su's face was only half exposed behind the feather fan, and King Chengping looked at his deep and clear eyes and couldn't help but sigh: Who knows how many sins my Emperor XiΓ of the Great Zhao suffered in order to survive......
"Your Majesty told her that you are the emperor of the Jokhang?" Retracting his hand, King Chengping stroked each feather on the feather fan and asked in a low voice, "I'm talking about Yuexi." β
"How could I tell my identity to a strange man who doesn't know the roots?" Speaking of Yue Xi, Su laughed again: "The meal he makes is delicious, have you ever eaten it?" β
King Chengping shook his head: "Strange man......"
"How?"
"It's nothing, the minister hasn't known her for a few days, and she chased her here from the Elimination Gold Pavilion, and I never thought that I would meet His Majesty here."
It turned out that he hadn't discovered that Yue Xi was a woman, so he must not have thought of Yue Xi's true identity...... Thinking that the woman had risked her life to break into the Golden Pavilion, King Chengping couldn't help but sigh again......
"You haven't told me about him yet." Jun Su suddenly thought about this question again, so he hurriedly asked.
"Her identity......"
King Chengping's eyes froze, and after thinking about it, he said: "She is from Cixian County, and she has been going to the city to beg for a living, and what she does is ......"
"Is he a traitor?" Jun Su asked softly.
"No, she's a big boss of a gang called Hanako......"
I don't know why, King Chengping's mind suddenly appeared that Yue Xi and the gangster surnamed Zheng helped each other out of the gate of the Gladiatorial Pavilion after winning 10,000 taels of silver, and he stood up for a while: "However, she has won 10,000 taels of silver from my Elimination Gold Pavilion now, and it is estimated that she will never bring those people to ask for food in the future." β
"She said that she would take her family to do serious business."
"He's not bad......" Hearing that Yue Xi wanted to do serious business, Jun Su was inexplicably happy in his heart: "It's just a little stinky temper!" β
"Huh?" King Chengping turned his head to look at the young emperor of Dazhao, and for the first time, he felt that even if he pretended, he couldn't laugh.
"He's a greedy man for money, and he even counts when he uses firewood for the fire." Jun Su pointed to the clean kitchen and said in a relaxed tone: "Yingfei, do you know, he, who doesn't know how to die, will instruct me to boil water and let me bathe myself......
"So, isn't Your Majesty angry?" This uncle and brother of mine have the most eccentric temper, and he often gets angry about very small things, and if she yells at him like this, he must be mad with anger, right?
"Nope. I'm not angry. Jun Su hooked his lips and smiled, his color was like a spring flower: "Every time I have him by my side, my illness will slowly disappear, how can I still be angry with him if I am not sick or sick?" β
"And I know he's really good to me!"
"Then have you ever wondered why a strange man should be so nice to you?
Why should it be so good to you? Chengping Wang Yingfei suddenly asked.
He said...... "Yue Xi called him a daughter-in-law, he has always known that he was born beautiful, maybe it's just because he looks like his wife, right?"
But if it's because he looks like his lady, then he will go crazy every time he sees him, what will Yue Xi think of himself?
You can't think too much about this question, and if you think about it too much, he will feel blushing......
"He's just a panacea for pain when I'm poisoned......" he muttered.
"ιxiΓ ."
"Huh?" When Jun Su looked up, Ying Fei had already come out of the kitchen and stood in the courtyard looking at him: "Who are you to Yue Xi?" β
"That day, Hua Chao and I went to see the peach blossoms, and Hua Chao called my name, and he knew that my name was Su, so I only said to her that I was Jun. I am the monarch of the Jokhang dynasty, and taking the king as my surname is not a lie. β
"Minister, retire." Junsu, Yingsu, what if you say your name or not, she probably knows it in her heart......
Before leaving, Ying Fei told SΓΉ Ying Su: "The trouble of this house has been completely solved, and Yue Xi is just a common man......"
"Oh, I forgot about this if I don't say it." Thinking of the scoundrel Ying Su who he let deal with that day, he regretted for a while: "I was in a hurry to go back to the palace, but I really forgot to clean up these things, if it weren't for Brother Wang, Yue Xi would have to go to the yamen to talk to those unconscious officials again!" β
I looked at all the houses in the yard again, and this time even the pesky donkey in the barn in the backyard was gone.
Disappointed, Ying Su returned to Yue Xi's bedroom.
A thin layer of dust fell on the simple pieces of furniture, which showed that the owner had not wiped it for several days.
Walking to the bed, the whole bed was covered with a large piece of plain cloth, it should be Yue Xi who knew that he would go out for a longer time this time, so he pounced on such a piece of cloth to prevent dust.
The pain in his body was getting worse little by little, and Ying Su's body was trembling involuntarily......
He stretched out his hand and uncovered the plain cloth sheet, threw it on the ground, and fell down to put it on.
"Liar, lie to me every time......"
Su grabbed the pillow aimlessly and placed it at the head of the bed, Ying Su dragged the quilt over, he buried his head in it, and smelled the residual smell of him on it......
"Huh?" Inadvertently, his palm slipped into the quilt and he touched out a neat stack of letterhead, and he sat up busily: "What is this......?"
It was a note left by Yue Xi for him, and only a few short sentences were written on it:
Daughter-in-law, I'll leave for a few days and go home to see my son. You have to eat and sleep obediently, and when I come back, I will make you something to eat!"
"You know ...... look at your son"
With such a few words that were almost ridiculous, Ying Su wanted to cry.
"I'm going to die of pain in a minute......"
"My queen mother forced me to get married, but do you know that as soon as I get married, I will be poisoned, and my body will become weaker and weaker from now on, and in a few years, I will die......"
"That's how my father is...... Now it's almost my turn......"
"Yuexi, why can I stop this pain only when I'm with you......"
"If you come back this time, I will definitely tie you up with a chain......"
When the pain is extreme, Yingsu often thinks about death.
He has endured this kind of pain for five years since he grew up, which is the pain that the Ying Emperor has to bear, and he is not immune.
And when the pain hit this time, he only thought of one person: Yue Xi.
That was the key to his pain and his hope for survival......
With the patience of hope, it seems that even the pain has become less.
Four hours later, Ying Su curled up in the quilt and fell asleep, the letterhead left by Yue Xi in his hand had long been soaked with tears and sweat and became blurred.
β¦β¦
Yue Xi returned to the palace with a body of pain, and finally he didn't have to cook medicine every day.
He showed the Yangyuan Pill to Su Jinyan, and he said cautiously: "Niangniang, the refining of this pill is a secret recipe, I can only see a few flavors of medicinal materials, and even if we have a recipe, we can't make it." β
"Why?" Yue Xi didn't pretend to be a hero when he returned to the palace, how comfortable he was.
Now she was lying on the big dining table, a puddle of mud, and asked weakly.
"There is Long Yanxiang in this pill, this herb can be used to invigorate qi and blood, disperse knots and relieve pain, but it is only available in the palace!"
"Pour me a drink." She said to the cloud painting behind her: "Since I can't do more, then I'd better eat it quickly, the stomach hurts every day, and it......'s like giving birth to a child."
