Chapter 321: Comprehension

Under the flickering light, the two of them sat on the dragon chair in unison, and Xiao Wanyao focused on her wounds because of the pain in her body. Xue Tianao sat aside and looked at her.

"Uncomfortable? It's better to go back and rest today, and talk about it another day. Xue Tianao said without any tone. They do need to talk about it again.

Xiao Wanyao was stunned, looked back at him, his eyes were shining under the light, but with an indescribable cold arrogance, "I'm fine, you, what did you just say?" ”

Xue Tianao's eyebrows furrowed, she was still struggling with what she had just said, "This incident has wronged you!" Thanks to your friends on the rivers and lakes. You almost gave up your life for me to get hurt, but I didn't help anything. ”

She chuckled, with a hint of charm, "After I heard that you knew about this, I stopped losing my temper and took my medicine on time and ate a lot." This is already helping me. Everything else is trivial, but I'm back safe now. ”

"Why are you doing that? Not at all. Xue Tianao looked at the dark night outside the hall, and could only see the dark shadows of the buildings in the distance, but he couldn't distinguish anything.

Xiao Wanyao turned her head to look at him, and for a moment, she almost said who she was. Suddenly remembering what Cheng Jin had said, he saw Ye Bing, and even just after a few more glances, he identified that person. And the person in front of him has been entangled in his heart for many years and has never forgotten it.

Suddenly I felt like a coward, and I didn't dare to show myself like him. A poor and pathetic coward, tormenting himself and others in this way.

The person you've identified for the rest of your life?

She raised her head slightly and followed his gaze to look out of the hall, and saw not only the scene in front of her, but also his country. Ask yourself again, why are you here? What is it that I can't give up in my heart?

She was hiding from herself, hiding from her feelings, but she was walking with her feelings, walking and walking, and then returning to him. She withdrew her gaze to look at him, and he turned to look at her, looking at each other.

Xiao Wanyao suddenly realized what Cheng Jin said, and she only needed one glance to know that it was him. No matter what happened in the past, no matter what will happen in the future, all people will eventually become passers-by, and he is destined to become the person who cannot be separated in this life.

At that moment, Xiao Wanyao suddenly felt a little relieved, how should she love someone? Isn't it acceptable to avoid it? Is it really more painful to stay by his side and accept his qiē than to run away from him?

She smiled gracefully, with a touch of tenderness, her eyes were as pure as water, clean as if she had never been contaminated with any mundane things in the world, "I just wanted to do this, so I did it, what is the reason?" And why bother. ”

She sighed, looked down and chuckled, yes! And why bother? That's it.

Xiao Wanyao's face was a little ruddy, but it was still difficult to hide her tired face, "The injuries on my body are not healed yet, go back and rest early." As for the matter of the Seven Princes, I listen to you, for the sake of the overall situation, I will bear with it this time for the time being. There will never be a next time, though. ”

Xiao Wanyao's smile deepened, the seven princes colluded with the parties in the court and co-opted forces, Xue Tianao, a halfway prince, it was not easy to ascend to the throne, and there was still the support of Yan State at the beginning, but now the relationship between Yan State and Wei State has long been stiff because of Gong Qing's matter.

The villains in the DPRK and China began to be eager to try, but Tang Mingxuan was the first to come out.

Xue Tianao deliberately asked Xiao Wanyao to go back, and on the way, she lowered her head and meditated, wondering if Tang Mingxuan had anything to do with the person who wanted Wei to die at the beginning. If it is really him, he must be completely uprooted, and he must not be soft-hearted.

Tang Mingxuan's matter has been boiling in the court, everyone is not a fool, someone comes out, naturally there are people watching the excitement behind the scenes, and they all want to see how Xue Tianao wants to deal with this matter. When two tigers fight, one will be injured, and whoever is injured will be good for those people.

Especially the person she wanted to investigate, so Tang Mingxuan couldn't keep the chickens and monkeys, but he couldn't let Xue Tianao make a move. Otherwise, the ministers of the DPRK and China will start to find all kinds of excuses to trouble him.

Xue Tianao reviews and rehearses every day, dealing with military affairs, and has already kept himself busy. Now someone must come forward to help him eradicate dissidents and help him carry a few necessary black pots. In order for him to get the support of the important ministers of the court.

Thinking of this, Xiao Wanyao straightened her shoulders, the night air was fresh, she took a deep breath, and a smile bloomed on her face. I am willing to be the most cruel person, even if I bear the world's infamy.

A few days later

Xue Tianao sat in the imperial study, it was rare that there were not many twists and turns today, after he dealt with it early, he glanced at the bright sunshine outside the hall, after returning from Xiao Wanyao, he was in a much better mood, every day in addition to the meals in the imperial dining room, Xiao Wanyao would make a small snack for him.

Sometimes he will find some novel gadgets for him to try, of course, there are times of success and times of failure. However, most Xiao Wanyao will mix some herbs into the dim sum, which will not be too unpalatable to eat, but it will be beneficial to Xue Tianao's body.

It was also under her repeated persuasion that Xue Tianao paid attention to resting as early as possible every day and eating on time.

He changed into an off-white light brocade robe, the robe wrapped around the heroic and upright body, there was wind under his feet, and he gently dragged the silk robe, adding a transcendence, the purple large-sleeved shirt was covered outside the robe, and the wide sleeved robe reached the ground. It simply added a touch of elegance to the unconcealable domineering.

Xue Tianao has been in a very good mood these days, and he often has a smile on his face, others may not know, but Fei Mo knows very well, just because of a woman.

Within a month, Xue Tianao would find a concubine to sleep for seven or eight more days, three or two days less, or even once. There are many people in the palace, and even some people in the concubines wonder if the emperor has any other habits.

Fortunately, they didn't catch any tricks, just some rumors, so after a long time, they faded. Moreover, when those concubines were sleeping, they didn't notice any abnormalities in Xue Tianao's body and physiology. On the contrary, it is his bronze and strong body that makes these concubines in the harem who are only competing for favor and throne have a lot of thoughts and fascination.

Some people only compete for favor and for favor, only for the sake of taking the throne, but here, most people are only for this man.

Xue Tianao walked out of the imperial study, and the inner supervisor hurriedly stepped forward, "Your Majesty, the weather is good today, where do you want to go, go and arrange it." ”

Xue Tianao smiled and waved his hand, "You go down, just let Feimo accompany me, and no one else has to follow." The inner prison was ordered to retreat, and only Fei Mo was left by Xue Tianao's side.

Fei Mo stepped forward, with a hint of suspicion, "Is the emperor going to find Miss Yanran?" She is on duty at the Imperial Pharmacy, and her subordinates can send someone to call her over. ”

He paused, "No need, I'm a little tired from sitting all morning, let's go see her instead of calling her." Let's see if this little doctor girl is doing her best for me. ”

Imperial Pharmacy

Xiao Wanyao rolled up her sleeves, the skirt in front of her was also tucked at her waist, her forearms were exposed, and her waist-length long black hair was also coiled on top of her head.

A dark shadow suddenly broke into the sight, startling Xiao Wanyao, who was focused, but because she looked up for too long, she couldn't adapt to the blocked light for a while, and she couldn't see who the person in front of her was, "Who?" Blocking my rays......" She put one hand on her brow and squinted at the man.

At this time, Dr. Le was coming out of the house with a book, "Found it, found it, I know what this herb is." ”

However, when he saw Xue Tianao, who was standing in front of Xiao Wanyao, dressed in a noble manner, he was frightened for a moment, until Xue Tianao looked at him, he ran to him in a panic and knelt down, "The slave doesn't know that the emperor is coming, and the crime deserves death." ”

Xiao Wanyao was stunned for a moment, and stood up suddenly, "Your Majesty? ”

"I'm blocking your sunlight? So where should I stand? Xue Tianao quipped.

Xiao Wanyao was stunned, in front of others, he should still give him enough face, and then took two steps back and knelt down in front of Doctor Le, "The slave didn't know that the emperor had arrived, and I hope the emperor will forgive me." ”

Xue Tianao's face was full of indifference, and he leaned over to pick up the Chinese herb that Xiao Wanyao was holding just now, "What kind of medicine is this?" It makes you look so intent. ”

"Back to the emperor, this medicine is called North Sanqi. Folklore has it that this medicine can cure a variety of poisons and diseases. Locals use it to treat wounds and burns without leaving a scar. I heard that a few days ago, Concubine Xian Niangniang accidentally burned the back of her hand, afraid of leaving a scar, I heard that this medicine can eliminate the scar so people specially bought it, so the medicine is extremely rare, and this herb has not been stored in the palace before. Xiao Wanyao said.

Doctor Le suddenly felt a trace of admiration in her heart, she knew it so clearly. The first time he saw this herb, he didn't know what it was, so he went to check the books.

"Get up and speak." Xue Tianao said, and carefully looked at the herbs in his hand, "Since you said that this medicine is so precious, why is there no reserve in the palace?" ”

Xiao Wanyao stood up and said, "The reason why this herb is valuable is because some folk legends exaggerate its medicinal properties, in fact, there are other medicines that can also replace it, and they are not used much on weekdays." Therefore, people who do not have reserves and do not understand medicine often think that it is good just by listening to fame, but this is not the case. ”

Xue Tianao nodded, his eyes catching a glimpse of a medicine book in the hand of Doctor Le on the side, "You just said you found it, but you found this herb in the book?" Show it to me. ”

Doctor Le turned to the page of the record, lowered his head and handed the book to Xue Tianao.

Xue Tianao looked at it carefully, just as Xiao Wanyao said. He didn't have any interest in herbal medicine, he was interested in another thing, according to what Yan Ran said at the beginning, she was a Jiangyang thief, and she loved rare treasures in the world, whether it was the inner room of the palace where the living lived, or the dark mausoleum where the private lived, she had been there.

In addition, it is to drink and have fun and enjoy the rivers and lakes.

However, Yan Ran, who was standing in front of her, was different from what she said in the past, she had a soft aura around her, lacking a trace of the boldness of the Jianghu people, and the herbal fragrance emanating from her body set off her soft and quiet beauty.

Xue Tianao handed the book to Doctor Le and didn't say anything else. At this moment, Imperial Physician Wu heard that the emperor was here, so he hurriedly came over from the front yard and bowed his head to salute, "Weichen sees the emperor, I don't know if the emperor is driving to ......"

"It's okay, I don't let people get through, and it has nothing to do with you. Get up. Xue Tianao said.

Chapter 322: Take Medicine

Originally, he just wanted to walk around and come to see Yan Ran, but he didn't want to be so eye-catching everywhere, he didn't want to cause inconvenience to Yan Ran, so he turned around and left with people. I rarely come to the hospital on weekdays, but since I came this time, I went to the front yard.

After Xue Tianao left, Doctor Le breathed a sigh of relief, and the frightened soul was finally recovered. Xue Tianao has never been to the imperial pharmacy since he ascended the throne, and he doesn't know what is going on today.

He turned his eyes to see Xiao Wanyao on the side, and saw that she was looking indifferently at the direction Xue Tianao left in a daze, so he asked suspiciously, "Didn't the emperor come to see you on purpose?" ”

Xiao Wanyao glanced at him and said with a smile, "Where! It's just that I'm here to check the post, so that we can do our work hard. ”

Check the gang? That's not what the emperor should do! This kind of trivial matter, the emperor does it himself? Even if there are a hundred emperors, they can't control the affairs of this harem, Doctor Le smiled, "It seems that someone is about to become the master." Then he deliberately pretended to be a slave, "The slave sees the master of Yanran, if the master of Yanran is rich and noble in the future, I hope that the master will take more care of the slave." ”

Xiao Wanyao chuckled when she looked at him, and coughed, "Get up, come on, reward." As long as Doctor Le is loyal to this palace, this palace will not treat you badly. After saying that, he laughed again.

Xiao Wanyao is not the kind of person who is rare to be a master, she has been a master more than anyone remembers. It is not an exaggeration to say that she has the power of the world. It's just that she is more willing to indulge in such a little fun, relaxed and natural.

However, this scene was seen by a little palace maid who came to get the medicine, and her steps slowed down a little, and she looked carefully at the two people laughing inside.

The concubines in the harem are constantly fighting, and those little girls, since they were children, have watched them grow up playing tricks, and they all have hearts and eyes all over their bodies. Not to mention those little palace maids who want to climb up and want to be masters.

The little palace maid standing outside the imperial pharmacy is the personal palace maid of Ji Xiangning's nobleman - Zhu Yueyou, and an unknown little palace maid with her. And she is the kind of person who wants to climb to the position of master and enjoy the glory and wealth.

Seeing Xiao Wanyao's appearance, her slightly opened lips tightened, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she snorted coldly in her heart, "I don't want to look at what I look like, I just want to be the master." ”

"Sister Yueyou, why bother with this kind of person, there are more such people in the harem. But a few of them are really masters. Even if they really happen to be favored by the emperor, there are a few who can survive in the battle for the harem. It's just a dream. The little palace maid next to her wanted to please her.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yueyou turned her head and glared at her fiercely, who made this little palace maid uninteresting and said her thoughts.

Xiao Wanyao saw someone coming in, so she stopped her mouth, tilted her head and stared at the person who came, the person walking in front was a palace maid who was about twenty years old, delicate and lovely, judging from the clothes, it should be a personal maid in the concubine's house, followed by a fifteen or sixteen-year-old palace maid.

Doctor Le stepped forward when he saw the visitor and asked, "It turned out to be Miss Zhu, what is the matter with Guiren Ji?" ”

Zhu Yueyou looked at Xiao Wanyao on the side coldly, staring at her a little inexplicably, Xiao Wanyao had never seen this person, but she didn't expect to look hostile as soon as she came. Didn't you have a festival before? She wasn't impressed.

"Doctor Le, this is the prescription prescribed by Imperial Physician Wu, I'll get a few pairs of medicine to stabilize the fetus. Today, Imperial Physician Wu treated Ji Guiren, and Ji Guiren was pregnant. Zhu Yueyou said in a high voice.

Xiao Wanyao's face sank suddenly, and she didn't listen to what she said later.

No wonder Xue Tianao came to the Imperial Pharmacy today, and he looked happy. It turns out that there is such a happy event in the palace. Xue Tianao has no heirs by his side, except for Xue Cheng's only son left by Gong Qing. Presumably this time Ji Guiren is pregnant, he must be ecstatic.

It wasn't until Zhu Yueyou left a cold snort and turned to leave that she suddenly came back to her senses.

Time is rushing forward, no matter how nostalgic he is for the people of the past, he can't resist the washing of time after all, he will have his own new life after all, and there will be new people around him. And Xiao Wanyao has gradually left his world indifferently. At most, at most, there are only some memories left. It's been a long time, I'm afraid I can't even keep these.

Since learning about Ji Xiangning's pregnancy, Xiao Wanyao has always looked preoccupied. She has never been very peaceful, these days, An An went to the imperial pharmacy on duty, Doctor Le saw that she was always busy with her head down, so she went up to talk, but she always asked a question and answered, and the content of the answer was just 'oh'' maybe. ''Yes' and so on.

Seeing that she seemed to have lost her soul, Dr. Le no longer paid attention to her. Let her sit there dumbfounded, sorting herbs, only occasionally reminding her, "That's angelica, you're misplaced." You registered the wrong amount of honeysuckle. ”

Until finally, she put down the work in her hand and let out a long sigh, feeling very lost in her heart. Xiao Wanyao is dead, Xue Tianao is the emperor, it is impossible for the harem to be without a concubine, Rui'er has not yet recognized her ancestors and returned to her ancestors, and Xue Tianao doesn't even know that she has such a big and naughty son in this world.

Sooner or later, he will accept concubines, and sooner or later he will have children and grandchildren, it is too normal to be an emperor.

It's not because he doesn't want to share him with other women, it's not because of the battle in the harem and the cage-like life that he will repeatedly reject him, and he is now scarred.

Maybe he can still remember Xiao Wanyao now, but what about a year, two years, five years, ten years later? Xiao Wanyao will become a memory sooner or later, no matter how much he cares about it now, sooner or later he will forget it.

As soon as she thought of this, Xiao Wanyao was so confused that she wanted to go crazy. What's going on? Why is this happening?

Wasn't the person who wanted to let go in the first place?

Isn't it the person who wanted to go out and live a free life in the first place?

Isn't it himself who tossed him all over his body, and is he such a lonely and helpless person?

Doctor Le skimmed Xiao Wanyao, who was sitting in the corner and wanted to cry for a while, and sneered for a while, her brows couldn't help frowning and leaned over, "Yanran, what's wrong with you?" Stimulated by what? ”

"I'm not stimulated, who will stimulate me." She stood up indignantly and threw the remaining half of the handful of herbs in her hand into the box, "It's time for a shift change, I'll go first." She strode out, crying with a sad face, yes, she was stimulated, stimulated.

She walked around the mezzanine towards the Tingyue Pavilion, muttering non-stop, "You go!" Didn't you want to leave in the first place? What are you doing here now, is it possible that without you, Xue Tianao will not be able to be the emperor? If you can't get used to it, you can go! Why don't you go? Live the life you want! ”

She stopped abruptly, stunned for a moment, her hands flapping in the air, and she wanted to go crazy like crazy.

"Damn, damn it......" How can this be, what is wrong with you? Did you really take the wrong medicine? She sat down in a side chair in the hallway, dejected.

The weather behind it was gloomy and pressing, and it was about to set when the sun was about to set, but at this moment the entire daylight was blocked by dark clouds, and the weather during the day was like night. She was still sitting in the corridor, her thin back looking a little lonely.

For some reason, a tenacious and indifferent woman sat here and cried lowly.

The thunder was getting nearer, the sky was getting darker, and listening to the rumbling thunder, she sat there and cried loudly, like a helpless child. Because of the thunder, no one noticed that anyone was crying here.

Xue Tianao came out of Ji Xiangning and glanced back at her, the sky was dark, and he couldn't see her smile clearly, but he felt that everyone was covered with joy and joy, and he was naturally happy in his heart. It's just that they are not as happy as they thought, for the first time, Xue Tianao showed a rare touch of tenderness to other women, "Go back, it's raining outside, don't get wet." ”

After speaking, he turned around and left, just a simple word of concern made Ji Xiangning's heartbeat beat a few beats faster. She was bent on being able to gain a foothold in the palace and give birth to an heir for him, but at this time she felt that she had become the happiest woman in the world.

In those days, Xiao Wanyao didn't know how to face Xue Tianao. Although they live in the same palace, they always avoid him. The dim sum was also sent by Qianxiao, and she stayed in the room and didn't go out if she was fine.

On this day, it was rainy again, and the thunder was gathering outside, Xue Tianao was a little disturbed, put down the pen in his hand, and reached out to the tea cup on the side, but found that it was empty, "Tea ......" he shouted.

The little eunuch who was waiting hurriedly stepped forward to pour tea, but accidentally knocked the teacup to the ground and shattered. The little eunuch's frightened face turned white, and he knelt on the ground, "The emperor spares his life." The minions didn't mean it. ”

Xue Tianao frowned, sighed slightly, and did not punish him for getting up and walking towards the outside of the hall, Fei Mo was still guarding the door, and when he saw him come out, his face was full of concern, "What's the matter with the emperor?" ”

Xue Tianao took a deep breath, how could he bear that the air outside was even more oppressive than inside the house, and the dreary weather seemed to be deliberate, which made him a little breathless. Irritability, I don't know why I'm unusually irritable, restless, I just feel that something is missing, and I always feel that I have forgotten something.

In the past few days, he often goes to Ji Guiren, although he is concerned on the surface, in fact, he is not emotional about any woman in the palace. If there is any meaning of their existence, it is just a doll, or a tool.

No matter how enchanting and touching the women around him were, no matter how he lingered on the bed with them, he put them aside after that, without thinking much or feeling guilty, and no one could fill the void in his heart from beginning to end.

Xue Tianao took another deep breath, the dark clouds in the distance drifted in, and there was a downpour at his sight, and the air at this time was even more depressing.

The raindrops are starting to fall, and the rainstorm is coming.

He strode towards the courtyard, Fei Mo was stunned, and hurriedly chased after him, "It's going to rain on the emperor, let's go to the palace." But he didn't listen to him, and went straight on.

The eunuch waiting in the hall saw Xue Tianao go out, brought an umbrella and hurriedly chased after him, holding the umbrella for him to cover the rain, but he was pushed away with a palm, "Get out!" ”

The little eunuch was so frightened that he didn't dare to step forward or leave, he stood aside with an umbrella in his hand, but he looked straight at Xue Tianao standing in the rain.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and Fei Mo persuaded, "Your Majesty, you are recovering from a serious illness, and I'm afraid it's not good to get in the rain, so let's go back." If Miss Yanran knows, she will bother the emperor again. ”

At the mention of Yanran, Xue Tianao's heart was suffocated, and the empty heart seemed to be full, and even the indescribable depression just now felt a lot easier.

"She? Where is she? He snorted softly. R1154
