Chapter 176: Entering the Game
Since he was assassinated in CD Mansion more than ten years ago, Li Desheng's body has been three good and two evil. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Coughing up blood, chest tightness and shortness of breath, low-grade fever is often accompanied, dizziness and fatigue, so that later... Even sexual intercourse is not possible.
In order to cover up the truth for her husband, Zhu Yuanrong had to pretend to be "jealous" in front of others, so whether it was Pei's or Chen's, they didn't think about anything else in the first few years, and focused on their respective sons.
Of course, the Queen Mother also annoyed Zhu Yuanrong because of this, and the feud between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became bigger and bigger, and the resentment became deeper and deeper.
But... Qinglan was puzzled, no matter how bad the emperor's health was, he wouldn't suddenly become a toad! This isn't the wizarding world of Harry Potter!
"What's going on?" Thirteen carefully held Li Desheng's hand, and the eyes that shot at Li Demin were full of ice.
The back of Li Desheng's hands and between his fingers are also full of pustules, and the skin is stretched open, so that the pus under the skin can be clearly seen. The nails are completely cut into the flesh, only the palms ... The palms were not intact, they were all red fingerprints.
These pustules will start to attack on time every day, and they are particularly itchy when they occur, and Li Desheng has not slept for more than half a year since the onset of the disease.
Hearing Thirteen's words, Qinglan couldn't help but look at Li Demin, seeing that King Su's face did not change calmly, the thoughts of the husband and wife immediately turned ninety-nine eighty-one times, isn't it Li Demin's ghost?
The room fell into a short silence, could it be that the emperor had another hidden reason for this illness, and it was not easy to spit out?
In addition to the smell of medicine, the air was also filled with rancid smell and sadness, and Li Desheng spoke again with difficulty, "Yes, it's me... It's me who is in a hurry. ”
This was explaining to Thirteen the reason for his serious illness, and he no longer even called "I", which made Qinglan a little flustered, and a bold conjecture was born: Could it be that the emperor has been since he and Thirteen left... Has it been tested in humans?
No wonder Qinglan thinks like this, the emperor's current state... More like the product of a failed experiment.
It is true that after the funeral of Emperor Jingtai, Li Desheng, who was in charge of state affairs, gradually became powerless. On the one hand, he sent Wu Qi everywhere to search for Yi medicine and folk remedies; On the other hand, he had to unite with Li Demin, and at the same time released his stand-in Xiao Ying for a long time, and the two played opposing roles in the court to seek overall stability.
At the beginning, Li Demin "assigned" the thirteen and two children, and a large part of it was to divert the attention of the ministers, after all, these two people... Like a natural luminous body, it will always attract many eyes.
And not long after Thirteen and Qinglan left, Li Desheng, under the cover of Zhu Yuanrong, began to test the drug for a long time.
Qing Lan instantly understood why the Lu family's caravan would enter and leave the Western Regions so frequently, as well as the illness described in Qin Sanxin...
Your Majesty, this is drug poisoning! Or... Allergies to certain drug ingredients!
Don't... Didn't he test whether his body could bear it before he tried the drug? Still is... Like he said, he was too anxious, so...
And so it became what it is now.
Qinglan clutched her nails tightly, the emperor's illness... Can it be cured?
"What did the Imperial Doctor say?" Thirteen's words were asked to Qinglan's heart, yes, why didn't a doctor see it!
Li Desheng glanced at Zhu Yuanrong, who turned around and went out. When he came back, he was followed by Qin San.
Since Qin San was brought here by Wu Qi that night, Qin San felt that his life was short. It was Prince Su who opened the door that night, and it was the emperor who was lying on the bed! And it's this... The emperor of the appearance!!
Qin San wanted to cry without tears, he had never seen such a patient in his life!
Heart damage, all organs are more or less faulty, blood poisoning, body allergies, my God, all of them add up to more than a mess!
"Minister... "I can't cure it, I can't cure it!"
"Imperial Physician Qin," Zhu Yuanrong looked at him with tears in his eyes, "This palace just wants the emperor to suffer a little less." ”
Qin San secretly thought rebelliously: Kill you... Isn't the emperor relieved?
But he can only think about it, he still has family members, it doesn't matter if he dies, he can't affect them.
When Zhu Yuanrong was almost finished, Li Demin interjected at the right time: "If Imperial Doctor Qin needs anything, just ask." ”
Qin San made up his mind, and he was not polite to him, he asked for a lot of unique medical skills and particularly rare medicinal materials, anyway, he would not die soon, and it would be good to be addicted to it, in case he could use it!
Qin San, who had been isolated from the world for many days, almost burst into tears when he saw Thirteen and Shu Qinglan at this time, maybe..., maybe..., he would not be disposed of quietly.
******
After Qin San finished talking about Li Desheng's condition, he continued to go back to the pharmacy to decoct the medicine, and the room fell silent again, even a layman like Qinglan could hear it, and the emperor was now struggling to survive.
So what's next... It's time to get down to business, right?
"Thirteen..."Li Desheng wanted to struggle to sit up, but every touch and friction of his skin would aggravate his pain. Thirteen was ruthless, and even the people were hugged together, and Li Demin sent the pillow into Li Desheng's waist with a quick hand.
"I..." Li Desheng changed his name, and Qinglan knew that this was about to get to the point, so she carefully pricked her ears.
Li Desheng took a deep breath, "I know that time is running out, and I can't take care of Dashun for a long time, and only the ancestral foundation can rest assured about the things behind me." Although the speed of speech was very slow, Qinglan could hear that these words were a long time ago, and she may have thought about it thousands of times in her heart. Li Desheng's expression was very solemn, "You and the others are all flesh and blood brothers valued by my father and me, with both ability and political integrity, loyal to the monarch and patriotic, and caring for the people." In time, it will become a great thing. The humerus of the society, the capable minister of the world. I..."After saying this in one breath, Li Desheng gasped a few times in succession, "I hope you two trust each other and help each other, and work together..."
Li Demin closed his eyes deeply and put his hand on the back of Thirteen's hand.
Li Demin smiled, it was a satisfied smile, "You... Be sure... Okay. Dashun... I'll leave it to you. ”
Hmmm-
Qinglan's tears fell uncontrollably, how long had she not shed tears, she hadn't even shed when she gave birth to Brother Can, but she was so excited by the emperor's words that she just wanted to cry loudly.
How fortunate I am to be able to serve two emperors who are so dutiful!
"Brother Huang..."Thirteen couldn't hold back his crying, Li Demin was also moved, and Zhu Yuanrong, with those drooping eye bags, seemed to be able to shed tears at any time.
"Don't cry."
Li Desheng slowly raised his hand and wiped away the tears on Thirteen's face, the tone, the action, was exactly the same as when Thirteen was a child. That's what it is... His big brother!
An emotion called parting spreads and hurts people themselves, even though everyone knows that now is not the time to be sad.
Qinglan wiped off the water stains on her face, in fact, the first emperor should have known the emperor's physical condition a long time ago, otherwise he would not have made two edicts at the beginning. So now... What does Lee Demin think?
Throne? Still is... Choosing to be the whetstone of the throne again?
Will he, will he...
After all, the temptation of the supreme power is too great, and the opportunity is rare.
Li Desheng looked at Zhu Yuanrong pleadingly, and the latter's eye sockets, which could barely hold his eyeballs, shook off a line of bitter water.
Poof, the sound was not loud, but it frightened Qinglan.
Zhu Yuanrong knelt on the ground and saluted the two princes.
Thirteen jumped up as if it was hot, "Imperial sister-in-law, you are...!" ”
Li Demin avoided Thirteen Eleven and pursed the corners of his mouth vigorously; Qinglan reacted and immediately stepped forward to help her.
Zhu Yuanrong grabbed Qinglan's hand and refused to get up, and Qinglan realized that under the wide robe, the queen's hand was like a pickled pepper phoenix claw that had just been taken out of the refrigerator.
"Ninth brother, thirteenth brother, this is the sister-in-law who knocked it for Yu'er," mentioning the child, Zhu Yuanrong finally showed a smile, "Yu'er is still young... In the future, I will ask the two uncles and younger siblings. ”
Qinglan instantly understood that this was a game, a bitter plan, the emperor calculated the attitude of the thirteenth, and his own attitude indirectly "forced" King Su to comply.
Good calculation, really good calculation, it can be seen that the imperial art of these years has not been learned in vain. To sum up, there are four sentences: sincerity, affection for people; Treat people with sincerity; Be open and honest and convince people with reason; Match words with deeds to win people with trust.
King Su... And Thirteen and himself, how could he not know that this promise... It is a stepping stone to become the next emperor willingly and without regrets.
The emperor must know this well, that's why...
Isn't this a bitter ploy performed by the emperor and queen together, giving up the dignity of the emperor, just for... Future.
Zhu Yuanrong was still kneeling on the ground, Qinglan looked at Thirteen, and then turned her head to look at King Su.
Thirteen and King Su set up Zhu Yuanrong on the left and right, "The imperial sister-in-law has tormented her younger brother." ”
The emperor and queen stared at King Su intently, for fear of missing the slightest emotion of King Su.
"Minister, you must do your best and swear to advance and retreat together with Dashun."
is different from King Su, the thirteenth is: "The eldest brother, sister-in-law, and younger brother must be wholeheartedly and do their best to protect their nephews." ”
Distant relatives are estranged and have immediate opinions.
In the end, it was Qinglan's turn to express her attitude, she knelt on the ground and gave Li Desheng a big salute, "Your Majesty, the ministers must live up to the emperor's grace, do their best, and die." ”
Li Desheng opened the corners of his mouth unnaturally, then breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back weakly.
"Big brother!"
"Your Majesty!"
...
When only Qin San and the unconscious Li Desheng were left in the room, Thirteen couldn't help it anymore and asked in a low voice:
"Your Majesty, he... How long can it last? ”
Qin San's hand holding the silver needle trembled, "More than half a year, less... Less..."
There's a good chance you won't even survive today.
******
If there were gossip magazines or newspapers at this time, the headlines of the recent news would definitely be: Duan Wang and his wife are back strongly, and King Su Li Demin is fighting against each other.
- This is also the latest situation in the court, Qing Lan was transferred to the Ministry of Works, and he took office after the year; The thirteenth is the military department, and he is in charge of the post of governor of the Dashun Water Army, and he will take office immediately.
As for the fact that an outdated Mu Enhou was killed by Duanwang and his wife, the witnesses were silent, as if nothing had happened.
The inside and outside of the court were eerily calm, and the turbulence under the deep sea was unfathomable.
Zhu Yuanjin didn't expect someone to come earlier than herself, as soon as she stepped into her hometown, she saw Qu Wanying crying in Qinglan's arms.
"What's going on?"
Qu Wanying saw that it was her, and she ignored people, and continued to wipe her tears.
"Miss me~!" Qinglan looked smug and proud. "Hey, where's your daughter?"
Zhu Yuanjin sank into the sofa with a buttocks, "Leave it at home~"
"Tut-tut, I didn't expect you to be so female-preference, my son just took it out for a walk as soon as the moon was over, daughter..."
"Puff~" Wan Ying turned into a smile, "Female over male? You can figure it out! ”
Zhu Yuanjin grabbed a handful of pine nuts and complained while swallowing, "That girl in our family... The salary is higher than mine, and this day's... Anyway, I can't take my turn! ”
Qinglan thought deeply, "That's, who made you the youngest." "You said you could compete with your mother-in-law or your mother-in-law, let alone the eldest princess.
Zhu Yuanjin took a breath and suddenly collapsed again.
"What's wrong? Something to say. Qinglan and Yuan Jin both aimed at her together.
Zhu Yuanjin scanned the surroundings, covered his mouth and whispered to the two: "I heard... The emperor is suffering from a vicious disease? ”
Qinglan paused, "What do you mean?" ”
Yuan Jin's body remained motionless, "... Some people say that the emperor is outside... Looking for flowers and asking willows, stained... That disease. After speaking, he stared at Qinglan with a pair of big eyes and waited for the answer.
"." Qinglan flatly denied it, "The emperor is not that kind of person, if he really wants to think, what kind of girl will not be stripped and washed and sent to the dragon bed?" ”
Wanying nodded, proving that what Qinglan said was true. Yuan Jin couldn't tell if she was disappointed or relieved, "I'll just say it~"
"Who did you listen to that?" Qinglan lowered her eyes, is it the temptation of the harem woman, or the previous dynasty...
"My sister-in-law." Yuan Jin continued to knock on the pine nuts, "Her father had a birthday a few days ago, and this word came from those female dependents. ”
Woman...
"By the way," Yuan Jin interrupted Qinglan's thoughts, "My brother said that he had something very important to talk to you about, and he had a thief there!" ”
Wanying was so frightened that her fingertips smacked, Sister Xindao, don't scare people, your brother has developed some weapons of mass destruction!
Who knew that Qinglan didn't react when she heard this, "I know." ”
"Huh?! You know? "I haven't even found out Shenzhai, how do you know!?
"You come with me." After Qinglan finished speaking, she got up and walked out. Yuan Jin and Wanying glanced at each other, and immediately threw down the pine nuts in their hands to follow.
The north wind of October was rolling in the courtyard, and Qinglan took the two to a storeroom.
Lift the tarpaulins that cover it one by one, "Now, do you see these?" ”
(⊙ o ⊙)...
"You sent someone to steal it?" Yuan Jin was puzzled, do you still need to steal things if you want them?
Qing Lanyin grinded her teeth and pinched her waist, "We put it here before we came back." In addition to these, there is also a whole set of dragon robes and phoenix crowns..."There is even the one on the dragon case of the Qinzheng Palace... Almost identical jade seal!
