"Princess Xiao, with all due respect, do you have any ailments?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Tang Guxi without knowing why, and Su Yin replied: "The mother concubine has a lot of serious diseases, but the imperial doctor is not good at diagnosis and treatment, and sometimes she can't even invite her, and then she rarely calls the imperial doctor." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info It's just, Sister Guxi, how do you see that? ”

"The cotton clothes worn by the princess are heavy, and the cloth covered is also several layers, thinking that the princess must be a person who is cold and afraid of cold, and she is afraid that she has cold symptoms on her body. If it was normal, I would not have noticed this if I was careless, but I would ......" Tang Guxi said slowly, with a layer of sadness on his face, "It's just that the little girl has an old friend, and her symptoms are similar to yours, so she thought of this." ”

"You mean Chen Gongzi?" Lin Luo thought immediately.

"Hmm." Tang Guxi nodded and continued to ask, "Su Yin, can your mother have this disease?" ”

It seems that Su Yin doesn't know too much, he looked at his mother blankly, only to see Princess Xiao smile faintly and nod at Tang Guxi. He patted the blanket on his body with his handsless arms and tightened his clothes, indicating that he was indeed afraid of the cold. After doing all these actions, she sighed sadly, snorted twice at Su Yin, and pointed her arm out the window.

"Su Yin, what is your mother talking about?" Qi Yu asked.

Su Yin turned his head to look out the window, and then glanced at Princess Xiao again, "Mother asked me to call Aunt Qiu?" ”

"Hmm...... Well. Princess Xiao nodded.

Su Yin got up and ran outside the house, and after a while, the elderly aunt walked in while wiping her hands on her apron.

"What does the lady command?"

Princess Xiao looked at Tang Guxi, pointed at Aunt Qiu with her chin, and motioned to Tang Guxi to repeat Fang Cai's question.

Tang Guxi took a deep breath, looked at Aunt Qiu, and asked, "Auntie, do you know where the cold on the princess comes from?" What's the name? ”

Aunt Qiu wiped her hands, put down her apron, glanced at Princess Xiao, and said in a sad tone: "This is cold poison on the lady's body, and it has been several years. On weekdays, I am weak and suffer from a cough, so I must wear thick cotton clothes and a vigorous stove, let alone on this cold winter day. As for...... As for how the lady got this disease, the maidservant ......"

"Auntie, don't be afraid." Qi Yu puffed up.

Aunt Qiu glanced at Princess Xiao on the couch, and continued: "A few years ago, when the king came back from a visit to Qiao Jiang, he brought back a medicine...... Later, a few days later, the imperial doctor came here, and after checking the pulse, he said that he would prescribe a few pairs of medicines to the lady, and he left. Later, after I took the medicine back from the hospital and gave it to the lady, the lady was like this. ”

"So, it's actually the king......" Lin Xun said with a frown, his face solemn.

"Cold poison...... It's exactly the same as Brother Bingfeng. Tang Guxi's face turned pale, and he lowered his head and muttered, "Brother Bingfeng is the same, his whole body is depressed, as if he has no bones, and the cold weather is even more coughing...... Even, even ......"

"It won't even be ...... soon" Aunt Qiu was about to answer, when she noticed that Su Yin was next to her, so she stopped talking and didn't say any more.

But Su Yin was a smart boy after all, he heard the meaning of Aunt Qiu's words, and suddenly threw himself on the couch, "Mother! ”

Princess Xiao hurriedly clasped his hands with her arms, kept shaking her head, and looked at him kindly, reassuring him not to worry.

"Aunt Qiu, Gu Xi dared to ask, what crime did the princess commit? So much so that the king wants to be so ruthless. ”

"The princess is so kind and gentle, no matter how you think about it, you won't make any big taboos." Lin Xun pondered, "Presumably, there must be some place that provoked the king, and the king can't be directly convicted, so he was sent to this place, right?" ”

When she said this, it attracted Lin Luo's attention, and she glanced at Lin Xun, thinking that his words also made some sense. But at this moment, I don't dare to make judgments, so I can only wait for my aunt to speak in person.

"Childe is so smart." The aunt said lightly, glanced at Princess Xiao on the couch again, and her expression became gloomy, "Since it is the lady who wants the maid to tell you, the maid will not hide anything, all the nobles are brought by Major General Qi, and the lady and I are also relieved." ”

She looked ahead with cloudy eyes, and fell into a distant memory, "That year, when the lady was still the princess, she once passed by the Luanxin Palace and accidentally heard the conversation between the king and Zhao Hou at the door. At that time, the lady was straightforward and quick-witted, and after learning the content of the conversation, she broke in and immediately blamed the king. The king was angry, so he sent the lady into the cold palace and returned ...... He also cut off his hands and cut off his tongue......"

"Okay auntie, don't say any more." Qi Yu interrupted and looked at Su Yin.

Hearing her aunt's remarks, Tang Guxi and the others were silent, their faces sad.

After a long time, Lin Luo asked, "Auntie, do you know the conversation between the king and Zhao Hou that day?" ”

"The handmaid doesn't know."

"The princess can't speak or write now, and the king's intention is obvious, that is, he doesn't want the matter to be spread outside. However, he still kept the life of the concubine and slowly consumed it with this poison...... It seems that the king used this method because he didn't want to do too much for the sake of the face of the fourteenth prince, and he was afraid that the news would spread. Lin Luo said, raising his eyes and glancing at Su Yin, "Su Yin, do you know all this?" ”

Su Yin didn't say a word, his expression became indifferent, he glanced at his aunt, and nodded.

"Yin'er has known for a long time, and my wife and I have never told him, but he knows everything in his heart. Fortunately, Yin'er has been well-behaved and sensible since she was a child, and has a pure temperament, and she has not lost her virtue because of this incident. ”

"Aunt Naqiu...... Although the princess can't speak, she can actually write. Lin Xun glanced at Princess Xiao's arm, "There's—"

"Childe." Aunt Qiu interrupted him and shook her head, "Son, don't embarrass the lady anymore, now the old slave and the lady can still live in the palace for a day, even if they are blessed by God, I really don't want to get into this troubled water again." Please forgive me. ”

Lin Xun suddenly woke up, was ashamed for a while, and arched his hand: "What my aunt said is very true, it is not considered well, and I ask the princess not to blame." ”

After chatting for a while, seeing that it was not early, they said goodbye to the princess and went out of the cold palace with Su Yin.

On the corridor walking back, Tang Guxi was worried, thought about it and said, "Since the medicine for this disease was brought back from Qiao Jiang, then the antidote must also be in Qiao Jiang." She raised her eyes and looked at Lin Luo and Lin Xun, "Lin Luo, Lin Xun, when you handed me the letter to Brother Bingfeng, the letter said that you might be able to help him find an antidote in a foreign country, but I didn't expect it to really have an eyebrow." So we ...... Let's leave for Qiao Jiang immediately! ”

"Miss Tang, don't worry." Qi Yu said, "The day when the king arranges for you to go west to Qiaojiang, after the New Year's Festival, leaving at this time will definitely attract the king's suspicion." Besides, since this medicine was brought back by the king, the antidote would definitely not be found easily. I thought, somebody, maybe give it a try......"

Lin Luo was stunned, "You mean, Hua Ning?" ”

"Yes!" Lin Xun also reacted and shouted, "Isn't that Hua Ning the master of Mei Yuesi?" She is good at alchemy and is proficient in Gu arts, this antidote must be no problem, besides, she is still from Qiao Jiang! Brother Qi, that Hua Ning girl has always had a good relationship with you, you can go and ask her. ”

Qi Yu coughed lightly, glanced at Lin Luo inadvertently, and said lightly: "What you think is too simple." With that, he turned and walked on.

Lin Xun chased after him and said, "How simple is it?" If you go and ask, maybe there will really be an antidote, in this way, not only Princess Xiao will be saved, but also Gongzi Chen! Brother Qi, you don't know yet, that Chen Gongzi is also a martial arts master, or an elegant talent, he is very similar to you, you can't die without help, right? ”

"Lin Xun." Qi Yu stopped and turned to face him, "If it was really that simple, then the antidote would have been in hand a long time ago." Don't forget, this palace is full of the king's people, Hua Ning is thoughtful, suspicious, and will take the risk to save a person she doesn't know? ”

As soon as he heard this, Lin Xun's face darkened, and he grabbed his head and stopped talking.

"But what do you mean when you said she could give it a try?" Lin Luo walked up.

Qi Yu sighed, and turned his eyes to look at Su Yin, who was being pulled by Tang Guxi, his eyes were deep. Lin Luo rolled his eyes, and then understood what he meant, so he didn't ask anymore.

Seeing that the expressions of the two of them were unpredictable, Tang Guxi couldn't help but let go of Su Yin, ran to Qi Yu and pleaded: "Master Qi, if I beg you, you can go and ask Hua Ning." Or...... Or you take me to Mei Yuesi, and I'll ask Miss Hua Ning for it. ”

"You calm down first." Lin Luo said, "After all, we are not familiar with Hua Ning, so it is better to wait until we return home to make a decision." ”

"Qi Gongzi, please take me there, even if I ask her, in case...... What if there is? ”

Qi Yu sighed softly, turned to Su Yin and said, "You go back to your brother Chen first, don't run around these days, at least you won't be bullied in his place, go ahead." ”

Su Yin nodded, and after saying goodbye to a few people, he turned around and walked back.

"Childe, this is ......"

Qi Yu turned around and said lightly: "Even if Mei Yuesi can really concoct an antidote to cold poison, it will never be possible for Princess Xiao to use it, and even if the king lets her die, no one can stop her." As for your Chen Gongzi, if the symptoms really match, then you can give it a try. ”

Tang Guxi understood the reason why Qi Yu took Su Yin, and felt ashamed of his abruptness for a while, but Brother Bingfeng's time was short, and this matter could not be delayed.

"So, Princess Xiao is certain to die?" Lin Xun said in shock, "What kind of news did you learn about the king that took your own life?" ”
