Chapter 83: It's back
The black-faced man hurried over in three steps and two steps, first saluted, and then said excitedly: "Little princess, you can be regarded as back, the emperor is in a hurry, let's go in." ”
Xi Ling'er nodded heavily, took Fang Ling's hand and said, "Brother Fang, I'll take you to see Daddy!"
"This is ......" The black-faced man noticed Fang Ling at this time, and saw that Xi Ling'er actually took the initiative to take his hand, and even had a sticky expression, he couldn't help but be really stunned.
"This is Brother Fang, he brought me back. Xi Linger explained.
The black-faced man suddenly realized, and saluted gratefully: "Thank you Gongzi for escorting me all the way, please inside!" and then said to Xu Musheng, "Musheng, I won't keep you, say hello to your father on my behalf!"
Xu Musheng nodded and said, "Commander Li, don't worry, I will definitely convey it." ”
After saying goodbye to Xu Musheng, Fang Ling walked towards the city, it seemed that because he saw Fang Ling's martial arts to kill the bandits, Xi Ling'er's little heart worshipped, and even a little sticky to Fang Ling, which gave Fang Ling a little headache, and she was almost dragged into the palace by her along the way.
This also made Commander Li stunned, God knows what kind of magic this foreign boy used, and it was as if he had changed the little princess.
There are also houses and buildings in the streets and alleys of the city, but there are almost primitive scenes of life here, and there are no shops or other shops.
Walking along the smooth avenue, you will come to the palace complex, the palaces can not be compared with the palace of Chu in terms of scale and quantity, and there is no gorgeous decoration, all of them are cold stones, however, the craftsmen use superb carving to carve exquisite and delicate patterns on the stone pillars and stone walls, etc., which also make people have a sense of shock.
When he came to the palace hall, a middle-aged man in his thirties hurried in from outside the palace. Needless to say, this person must be Xi Ling'er's father, if the country at the bottom of the valley is still called a country, then he is the current emperor Xi Zhengyong.
"Daddy!" Xi Ling'er happily threw herself into Xi Zhengyong's arms, feeling a little coquettish.
The corners of Xi Zhengyong's eyes couldn't help but moisten, she looked at her daughter lovingly, and said with some reproach: "You girl, why did you run out for so long, do you know that your father spent a lot of time looking for you?"
Commander Li said on the side: "Your Majesty, isn't the little princess back, everything will be fine when she comes back." ”
Xi Ling'er pulled Fang Ling over at this time, and said with a smile: "Dad, you must reward Brother Fang well, without him, I will definitely not be able to come back." ”
Xi Zhengyong immediately glanced at Fang Ling, and suddenly realized: "You sent the little girl back?" ”
Xi Zhengyong's face was grateful, his attitude was very peaceful, and he did not have the majesty of the emperor at all.
Fang Ling bowed slightly and said, "The emperor is too polite, it's just a gesture." ”
Xi Zhengyong smiled slightly, and said to a maid: "You take the little princess to bathe and change clothes first." ”
After Xi Ling'er was taken away, there were only three people left in the palace: Xia Ling, Xi Zhengyong and Li Commander.
Xi Zhengyong motioned for Fang Ling to sit down, and sighed, "Young Master Fang should already know what happened to us here, right?"
Fang Ling replied, "I've heard a little. ”
Xu Musheng nodded and said, "Commander Li, don't worry, I will definitely convey it." ”
Xi Zhengyong said: "Then Fang Gongzi doesn't know if he is mentally prepared, I'm afraid that from now on, you can only live at the bottom of this valley The girl is still young, so the emperor has never mentioned these things to her, Fang Gongzi sent the little girl back, but she has to live a lifetime of isolation from the world, the emperor is really very guilty." Here, gold and silver treasures are useless, only the antidote grass is priceless. Of course, since you are the benefactor of the little girl, what the emperor can promise is to let you live a stable life here. ”
Fang Ling asked, "Your Majesty, isn't there really no cure for strange diseases?"
Xi Zhengyong shook his head solemnly and said: "As early as three hundred years ago, when the strange disease was discovered, there was a doctor who diagnosed it, but there was nothing to be done about this disease, and it could only be inferred that it might be caused by poison, but the source of the poison could not be found, because even if the water source was taken from outside the valley and the prey was eaten from outside the valley, this strange disease still continued, so it can only be called a strange disease." It wasn't until the discovery of the detoxification grass that the strange disease was truly alleviated, however, there was really no way to eradicate it. ”
Fang Ling 'touched' his chin and thought, in fact, when he heard the detoxification grass, he had already considered whether this strange disease would be poisonous, but until now, his body has not felt anything abnormal, since it is said that entering the valley is poisoned, it is possible that he can avoid poison, if so, then the Sun Melting Moon Antidote will definitely be able to detoxify!
He said: "I also know a little bit about medical skills, if the emperor doesn't mind, can you let me take the pulse?"
"This ...... The emperor ......" Commander Li hesitated on the side, as if he felt that this was very inappropriate.
Xi Zhengyong waved his hand slightly, and said generously: "It's okay, in the past three hundred years, maybe the medical skills of the outside world have also developed greatly, and since Fang Gongzi is studying medicine, it is natural that he is interested in this." ”
With that, he walked to the side of the chair and sat down, rolled up his sleeves, and handed his hand to Fang Ling.
Fang Ling sat next to him, pressed his hand on it, and then separated a small wisp of sun fire and drilled into Xi Zhengyong's hand, this wisp of fire was as small as silk, so it would not arouse Xi Zhengyong's notice.
As soon as he entered his body, Fang Ling found that Xi Zhengyong also had a superb internal strength, and in his body, the rather powerful internal strength formed a true qi that was formed along with the meridians.
However, after searching in Xi Zhengyong's body for a while, he did not find anything abnormal.
Fang Ling couldn't hold on to his hand, so he had to let go of his hand, although he couldn't figure it out, but when he thought about it, whether it was a lame foot or a hematoma that he had treated, ordinary doctors could diagnose the cause of the disease, so as to find out how to treat it, but they couldn't be treated.
However, this strange disease has lasted here for 300 years, and it is suspected that it is poisonous, but the source of the poison has not been found, so it is classified as a strange disease, but the cause cannot be found, so there is no solution.
Even if he was doing this day-melting moon solution, he couldn't find the cause for a while.
At this moment, a guard outside hurriedly came to report, and Zhu Conghou, the general of the Zhu Department, came to pay a visit!
"It's weird, why did General Zhu come over suddenly?" Commander Li said with a suspicious expression.
"Wouldn't you know when you saw him?" Although Xi Zhengyong was surprised, he quickly calmed down, and asked the guards to let him in, and then smiled at Fang Ling, "Young Master Fang, you just sit on the side, and if you live here in the future, you should also know some things that you should know." ”
Fang Ling saw that he regarded himself as his own person so quickly, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little moved, this emperor was really a man with a sincere personality.
After a while, I saw a burly middle-aged man walking in, this big man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, high nose and wide mouth, striding forward, looking amazing.
Zhu Conghou came in, and after his eyes puffed on Xi Zhengyong and the others, he suddenly fell on Fang Ling, and said with a smile: "I heard that an outsider sent the little princess back, it turned out to be this son." Your Majesty, this minister is much more relieved. ”
Zhu Conghou walked in, he didn't salute, he didn't greet him, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he talked about it like a family, and there was no etiquette between monarchs and ministers.
Xi Zhengyong didn't say much, and said lightly: "General Zhu's news is very well-informed, and the little girl has not been half a pillar of incense when she came back, and it has been transmitted to Zhou?"
Zhu Conghou said with a smile: "The emperor is serious, the minister happened to see the little princess and her party on the way here, and only found out after inquiring at the door." ”
"It turned out that it was here, General Zhu came here after a hard journey, could it be just to say these few words?" Xi Zhengyong smiled slightly.
Zhu Conghou said: "The minister got the news, the two departments are now ready to fight, if it really starts, I'm afraid it will be a big war." ”
"Oh, it's really surprising that General Zhu actually came to the Xu Department and the Zhou Department. Xi Zhengyong said unexpectedly.
Zhu Conghou said with a straight face: "The minister's is the safety of the people, and the dispute between the two clans will definitely disturb the royal family and our Zhou clan, so I implore the emperor and the two generals to come to the imperial city, and everyone will sit together and discuss it." ”
"General Zhu's suggestion is very good, but the emperor can not say that General Zhou is not moved. Xi Zhengyong squinted his eyes slightly and said calmly.
Zhu Conghou smiled and said, "If they hear that our Zhu Department is also coming, they will definitely not refuse." ”
Xi Zhengyong bowed his head slightly and said: "Okay, then make an appointment, let's sit down and have a good talk, if the various ministries can calm down the dispute, of course it is the best." ”
Zhu Conghou arched his hand and said, "The minister will retire!"
After that, Zhu Conghou walked away, still with the same high-spirited appearance when he came in.
Commander Li snorted heavily and said: "General Zhu is really getting more and more presumptuous, and now he can't even give the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, I think he has no good intentions about the other two generals." ”
Fang Ling asked on the side, "Hasn't this Zhu tribe participated in the war between the tribes?"
Xi Zhengyong frowned slightly and said: "Zhu Bu, like Xu Bu, has adopted a defensive strategy, but Zhou Bu has always taken the initiative to attack. ”
Commander Li added, "It's just that the direction of Zhou's attack is only against the Xu Department, and there has been no movement on the Zhu Department behind it, although the Zhu Department is indeed a large number of people, but we all suspect that General Zhu and General Zhou are likely to have a secret agreement." ”
