Chapter 142: Means (2)
I saw a sudden suffocation around me, and suddenly a long and worn strip of cloth came out, which rolled over the child who was about to fall to the ground, and then fell to the ground again, crying.
"Second princeβ" Hai Rong ran down with a shocked face.
Emperor E breathed a sigh of relief, this turn and turn, buffered a lot, and did not worry about a little skin injury, but still anxiously watched Hai Rong and the frightened lady hugged Huaiyu tremblingly.
The lady hurriedly hugged her and coaxed her, but Hairong took it mercilessly, but she was very careful about the child, the lady stood aside awkwardly, suddenly thought of something, and quickly lowered her head and knelt down.
Hairong coaxed carefully, and ran up to show Gu Langzhong again, completely forgetting that Gu Langzhong was holding a silver needle back and forth to probe Emperor E's acupuncture points.
"Gu Langzhong, look ......" Hai Rong must have seen Gu Langzhong inadvertently come to the rescue, thinking that he was underestimating him, looking at his skills, he must not be an ordinary person.
Gu Langzhong waved his hand, and his eyes suddenly looked at the lady kneeling below, "It's okay, the child's hard work has passed, but there is only one life, and it is not easy to pick it up, but it is necessary to take care of it." β
Hairong knelt down, looked at Emperor E anxiously, and handed it over tremblingly, "Gu Langzhong, let's take a look, if something goes wrong with the second prince, the slave can't afford it even if he has a hundred heads." β
Emperor E also looked at Gu Langzhong with the same begging, and the child's cry temporarily forgot the pain in his back.
She just wanted to struggle to go down to see the child, Gu Langzhong stretched out a hand, opened Huaiyu's clothes and carefully checked her chest and head, tried her pulse again, and then shook her head.
Hairong hurriedly kowtowed, "Doctor Gu Shen has excellent medical skills, save His Royal Highness the Second Prince, save the minions." β
A hint of cunning flashed in Gu Langzhong's eyes, "Seeing that you are so sincere, I will tell you that he is wetting his pants, go change his pants and feed some food, just do it." β
Hairong was stunned when he heard it, and watched Emperor E burst into tears and laughed, before he reacted and hurriedly thanked him.
Then he straightened his face and looked at the lady below, "The slave thinks that this woman is really not suitable for serving the prince, or the slave will choose two clever girls and experienced mothers-in-law to come in and serve, this time the prince is in danger, but it is a great blessing, you must be very careful." β
Only the lady knelt there with a pale face, facing the wind, but she could feel the trembling of her body.
Emperor E swallowed the bloody breath that came up again, and waved his hand, "That's it, punish kneeling for three hours, be careful in the future." β
"What-" Hairong looked at him in disbelief.
The lady was also shocked, and then slowly lowered her eyes, and there was no look in her eyes.
Emperor E waved his hand impatiently, the black blood that had just stood out stained the vermilion carpet, Gu Langzhong hurriedly checked the pulse, and took out a few small needles to stab the unknown acupoints respectively, this time gradually stopped the bleeding and suppressed the sweetness in his heart.
Seeing this, Hairong just didn't speak with a black face, but the hand holding Huaiyu tightened, for fear that something would go wrong, Huaiyu's constant crying, Hairong remembered Gu Langzhong's words, reached out and probed underneath, and sure enough, it was wet, and he hurriedly retreated in a panic.
"Lady go to the Buddha Hall and kneel, don't worry." Empress E gave her a smile, but saw the lady kneeling down and answered.
"The people in your palace, I really don't understand, they all say that the queen is above 10,000 people, and she kills people without blinking, why are you so good at talking?" There was a muttering from behind, and it turned out that Gu Langzhong spun around and began to pull out the needle.
Emperor E felt a pain for a while, and looked at the back of Xiao Se who was gradually leaving, "Because, she is also a mother." β
The back was suddenly stunned, and Emperor E thought that he had made a mistake, so he didn't say anything more, listening to Gu Langzhong as if he didn't understand.
Eventually, the needle came out of my body, but the pain was still unabated, but it wasn't as uncomfortable as it was when I pricked it.
The needle was taken out and soaked in the water on the side, the needle was conspicuous ink, about an inch long, Gu Langzhong frowned, and Emperor E was supported by the palace maid, "Gu Langzhong sat down for a while, Emperor E went to freshen up, and then came to see the guests." β
Just now he rescued Huaiyu, Emperor E was naturally grateful, and couldn't help but relax his tone a little more, but the question that just arose in his heart had to be asked clearly.
It was about the time of a cup of tea, Emperor E hurriedly bathed and changed clothes, changed into ordinary plain clothes, and did not bring any accessories, and his pale face had not yet recovered, but it was like a clear water hibiscus, exquisitely clear.
"Gu Langzhong has been waiting for a long time."
As soon as he came in, he saw Gu Langzhong holding the needle in his hand, and his expression was a little serious and desolate.
"Mother's disease......
"Dare to ask Mr. Gu, where is your ancestral home?" Emperor E waved everyone back, interrupted Gu Langzhong's words, and asked firmly.
Gu Lang was stunned, with some doubts and resistance in his eyes.
"The grass people flow everywhere, and naturally they are all over the world."
"So is there anyone else in Mr. Gu's family?"
"No, no. Dare to ask the queen what these are doing? β
"This palace is the queen, and Gu Langzhong is the diagnosis and treatment of this palace, so naturally we must understand it clearly." The title of Emperor E suddenly became the queen's honor, and she looked like she could not help me.
"Mr. Gu is from this Jiangnan?"
Gu Langzhong paused, a trace of haste flashed on his face, and his eyes looked away, "Naturally, the grass people were born and raised in Jiangling when they were young, and they grew up to call the world their home. β
Emperor E eased his expression, and there was a hint of sympathy in his eyes, "Speaking of which, Jiangling is a good place, the lord of Eastern Wu is sticking to Jiangling, and he is the one who keeps it safe, I don't know if now, but he will still ask for rain and sacrifice to the west river every year?" β
Gu Langzhong agreed in a panic, "Naturally, it's like this every year." β
Emperor E nodded knowingly, and didn't ask any more.
Gu Langzhong breathed a sigh of relief, "Niangniang's illness ......"
"With all the help of Gu Lang's traditional Chinese medicine, how much time does this palace have to live?" Emperor E asked directly, without the slightest fear in his eyes, as if he was asking an extremely ordinary question.
Gu Langzhong's brows furrowed, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he also said straightforwardly, "I am terminally ill, at most three or five years, and at least in July and August." β
Emperor E's heart was empty, he nodded, and listened to a voice in the outer hall gradually coming: "The queen is awake?" Did Gu Langzhong come to diagnose the queen's pulse? β
Gu Langzhong looked at Emperor E's face and shook his head, "The Empress still tries to keep her body and mind happy, and the grass people will definitely do their best." β
Listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer, the palace people went out to pick up the car, and Emperor E also smiled, looking at his serious appearance, with only a voice that two people could hear, he said a sentence very carefully and quickly, "Ghost doctor Gu Feijue, did he let you come?" β
Without waiting for Gu Langzhong to react, he saw that Li Yu's court clothes had not yet faded, so he hurried over, looking at the person on the soft couch with a ruddy face, looking at him with bright eyes, and his heart suddenly let go.
But Gu Fei really heard that sentence clearly. I couldn't help wiping a cold sweat.
"It's really worthy of the holy hand, the queen's improvement looks much better today, and when the queen's illness is cured, I will definitely reward you heavily." Li Yu stepped forward to take Emperor E's hand and looked at it carefully.
Emperor E smiled, "Gu Langzhong has taken a fancy to this candle, why don't you give it to him." β
"Oh?" Li Yu looked at him with a smile, "What is a mere candle, if the queen's illness is cured, the prince will be the prime minister, and Gu Langzhong will choose at will." β
Emperor E was stunned for a moment, then looked at Gu Lang Zhongyun and waved his hand lightly, "The grass people are people outside the world, and the glory and wealth are too much in the eyes, looking at the candlelight of the queen's mother is quite exquisite, thinking that it is also worth a few wine dollars, so I want to ask for some wine." β
Li Yu laughed, "Okay, why don't you take both of them, since ancient times, the red candle will be hung high, there will be no single shadow, good things come in pairs, let people wrap them up and give them to you." β
"Thank you for the Emperor's grace."
Li Yu nodded and pondered for a while, "Is the queen's stubborn illness better?" β
Gu Langzhong looked at Emperor E, "The emperor doesn't need to worry, the queen mother has her own natural appearance, and she will definitely turn evil into good fortune, how can there be no reason to cure a stubborn disease?" β
Li Yu nodded after a sigh of understanding, and gently brushed the long hair that fell from the side of his ears for Emperor E, "Do you hear, when you are well, I will take you on a tour of the mountains and rivers, and you will get better soon." β
Emperor E choked, nodded, and turned his head, but the tears that had been accumulated for a long time in his eyes quietly slipped down and gently brushed away in the direction of no one.
"If Gu Langzhong lives in the palace for a long time and serves the queen's body, I can rest assured."
"This ...... Well, that's it. Gu Langzhong glanced at Emperor E and nodded with some concern.
Empress E and Concubine Ning had breakfast, thinking that the prince would go to help deal with political affairs without breakfast, Concubine Ning signaled that even if she had a prince, she should not snub the prince, so she made a few side dishes that the prince loved to eat every day, and sent someone to send them over.
The next day, on the third pole of the sun, Emperor E's sleepiness had just disappeared, and seeing that Huaiyu was still asleep, he went to the inner hall to prepare incense powder.
It was when the latest batch of flowers bloomed this year, taking advantage of the heavy dew in the night and the time of the rising sun, the petals with dew were picked, dried under the scorching sun, ground into powder, carefully treasured, and seasoned, so that they could be shown today.
Emperor E used to like to tinker with some things, and when he made incense powder in the Zhou Mansion, he started with the Qin family's Nuying, who was still young, and always smeared rouge on her face, filled it in her mouth, and said with a smile that it was so sweet.
Empress E retracted his thoughts, looked at the female Ying opposite and smelled the rouge he made with great interest, and also smiled.
Early this morning, he said that he wanted to make rouge, but fortunately, Emperor E still had the habit of storing in the petals, so he did it with her, and he always looked forward to her growing up, so he could talk to her in the boudoir, but now he is getting older, but he can no longer speak.
"Sister, sister, look, is my rouge done?" Nuying happily ran over with the rouge and showed it to Emperor E.
Emperor E picked up the small silver spoon and stirred it, looked at the color, and shook his head, "I added too much pearl powder, let's add some finch grass, you didn't add much aloe vera juice, and it was dry and tight." β
Nuying did not have the imaginary loss, but learned a lesson, nodded solemnly, and walked back to start over.
Emperor E took the rouge gel made by himself and smelled it, the luminosity and color are all of the highest quality, delicate and soft, and the veins of the petals can be seen in the subtleties, and he was quite satisfied, so he packed it in a small box and put it aside.
"Niangniang, something happened," a small eunuch who was following Hairong hurriedly ran in.
"What's wrong?" Emperor E asked.
"Sister, he must have smelled the incense we made, and when the rouge is finished, I'll let you try it first." Nu Ying said innocently.
The inner eunuch hurriedly wiped his sweat, "Second Miss Xie is gracious, it's just that the queen mother, when the court was discussing today, the prince suddenly fainted with abdominal pain, saying that he had eaten the wrong thing, and now the imperial doctor has gone." β
Emperor E's mind was shocked, he ate the wrong thing? Is it the breakfast that was delivered?
