Chapter 24: Decision
Li Ying opened his eyes in a daze, covered his mouth and yawned. I was still thinking about how I could be so sleepy, I went to bed early yesterday.
"Spring and summer, bring water." She shouted twice and couldn't help but feel a little strange when she saw no one, this girl in spring and summer is usually very diligent, sat up and took a closer look, only to find that this room was not her room at all!
There were no furnishings, just like the snow cave, and the four corners of the table were covered with soft cloths.
She was so frightened that her mind was much clearer. I ran barefoot to the door of the room to open the door, but I couldn't open it. She was so anxious that she banged on the door, "Is there anyone, is there anyone?" Is anyone out there? Feed! Open the door! ”
I slapped the door for a long time, until my hands were swollen, and no one came. Li Ying's body couldn't help but soften, and he slid down the door.
How so? Where is this? How did she come here all of a sudden? Li Ying's mind was a mess, all of which were entangled in questions.
She cowered on the ground, desperately wondering what was wrong.
"Open the Door"
Li Ying's head was raised with a brush, and she recognized the voice, it was a paper inkstone! The paper inkstone next to the prince!
However, before she was happy, she thought: Paper Yan is the prince's person, could it be that the prince locked her up here?
The door opened slowly, and the paper inkstone was carrying the light, looking condescendingly at Li Ying who was sitting on the ground, and there were two sturdy eunuchs standing on either side, with wooden faces and fierce eyes.
Li Ying stood up with his support for the door frame, and said with a hint of hope, "Is Father-in-law Paper Yan here to save me out?" ”
The paper inkstone stepped in, and the two eunuchs immediately closed the door.
"Save?" Paper Yan sneered and shook his head slowly. "I can't save you, you may be able to save your own life. Li's face turned cold, "I have come to ask you at the behest of His Highness, and you must answer truthfully." The snow ball next to the owner of the village, but you sent it? ”
Li Ying's body trembled, gritted his teeth and said, "I sent it." That day, I took Xuetuan to visit Sister Zhuang, and she took the initiative to ask me for it! ”
"Your maidservant Chunxia confessed that you often take a small hydrangea to play with that cat and let it pounce, don't you?" Paper Yan asked.
Li Ying calmed down at this time and said in a clear manner, "Cats like to play with brightly colored balls, and I'm not the first to do this, just to make it happy, is there any problem?" ”
Chunxia didn't know anything, and thought that she and Zhang Biyu had a good relationship, and her confession would not be too unfavorable to herself.
As long as you bite to death and don't know anything, maybe there will be a glimmer of life.
Paper Yan stared at her for a while, and said lightly, "Presumably Master Li hasn't thought it through yet, when you think clearly, I'll ask again." Without hesitation, he turned and walked out.
Li Ying watched the carved door open and close as she opened and closed in a daze, and faintly realized one thing: the paper inkstone was not here to interrogate, but to force her to confess! He didn't want to hear his own arguments at all! If I don't confess my guilt, I'm afraid I'll be locked up here forever. Then like Ann, he was "seriously ill", died, and was forgotten......
She covered her mouth and cried uncontrollably.
Within three days, Li Ying's confession was sent to the prince's case.
The prince flipped through it, closed it, and said, "Deal with it." "This treatment speaks for itself.
"Your Highness, the crown princess, I have sent someone to ask you for an idea." Tan Chen lowered his eyebrows and said pleasing to his eyes.
"Idea, I think she has the most idea." The prince said irritably.
Li said that he had a bad intention because Zhang poisoned her and wanted to harm her child. This is clearly determined that Zhang is the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Go back to the crown princess, Zhang's na, just do what the queen mother wanted." The crown prince sighed, although the queen did not say it explicitly, but the meaning was still obvious. The child must be held to the crown princess.
Tan Chen sighed.
Li Ying soon became "sick", and when he knew the news, Zhuang Zhao was mixing fragrances. I always felt that the incense in the palace was too heavy, and Zhuang Zhao was rarely interested in adjusting it himself.
"Got it, send someone to send something to her. It's like a visit. Zhuang Zhao instructed Bai Lingdao, and his hands kept moving.
Dissolve dipterocarp in water, and then soak Laoshan sandalwood slices, dried peach blossoms, and cloves in dipterocarp liquid and hand them over to white tea.
"Now the master and the crown princess are afraid that there will not be so much warmth." White tea roasts these crisps and grinds them into a fine powder. Grind a little pungent into a fine powder and mix it into sandalwood, peach blossom and clove powder, and smoke it with a fire slice.
No matter what happens to Zhang Biyu, it is impossible to regain favor. As soon as Li Ying fell, there were almost only the crown princess and Zhuang Zhao left in the East Palace.
Zhuang Zhao smelled the fragrance scattered in the air, and his eyelids drooped slightly, "What are you afraid of." In the final analysis, the crown princess still relied on the guidance of the queen's mother. The queen mother will not watch the crown princess control the East Palace alone, in the end, we are still the people she gave us. "As long as she is not like Zhang Biyu, the queen will not tolerate her.
What's more, this time the queen intervened, and the prince may also be a little dissatisfied in his heart. How can a person who will be an emperor in the future like others to dictate his own affairs? The queen also has to look at the face of the crown prince.
For the next few days, the prince stayed with him, and Zhuang Zhao was sweet and troubled. The prince didn't know what stimulated her, so he pressed her to the bed every night like this and that. No matter how strong a person is, he can't sleep, let alone Zhuang Zhao's delicate little body.
That night, the prince kissed her and was about to fall into bed.
Zhuang Zhao pushed him away, his face flushed, and his apricot eyes were covered with a layer of water, "Your Highness, wait first, let's talk tonight, okay?" The little girl's voice was timid and distressing.
"Say what?" The prince branded a kiss on her round shoulder.
She shrank in fear, trying to divert the prince's attention to speaking, "Speak...... Let's talk about children, does Your Highness like boys or girls? The bright eyes stared at the prince tightly, which made the prince embarrassed.
He withdrew his hand, and the two of them lay side by side and talked.
"Boys and girls like it," the prince had a smile in his eyes, "as long as it's born to you, it's fine." ”
Zhuang Zhao was a little moved, she knew that the prince was so anxious that he wanted her to conceive a child, otherwise he would not be a person in a hurry.
"Or, why don't you let the Imperial Doctor come and check my pulse." Butterfly winged eyelashes blinked embarrassedly, "I also want to conceive a child for His Highness as soon as possible." ”
The prince kissed her cheek and praised without hesitation, "Good Jiaojiao, awesome." ”
The next day, the prince sent a paper inkstone to invite Imperial Doctor Yu.
This is located in the hospital since the last time Ren Jieyu had a pulse diagnosis, he has been sitting on a cold bench in the Tai Hospital. If he didn't really have some ability, I'm afraid he would have to return to his hometown.
He followed the paper inkstone into the west hall and asked for peace through the screen. A delicate female voice came from behind the screen, "No courtesy, white tea, please sit down in the court."
Yu Han Temple has also read a thousand sails, and there are really few outstanding voices like Zhuang Zhao, no wonder His Royal Highness the Prince is so precious, Yu Taiyi said in his heart that he understood.
He put down the medical box, took out the gold wire, and asked the white tea to tie one end to Zhuang Zhao's hand, pinch the other end in his hand, and put his index finger and middle finger on the gold thread.
"Doctor, how's it going?" Paper Yan waited for a while, and then asked when he saw that Imperial Doctor Yu began to retract the thread.
"The owner's body is very healthy, and there is no problem," Yu Taiyi said.
Paper Yan coughed and said, "The pregnant appearance of the master of the village is ......."
Imperial Physician Yu said with a clear face, "The master of the village is in good health, it is a matter of time before he becomes pregnant, and this matter is not urgent." ”
Although he knew that this was the result, Zhuang Zhao was still a little disappointed. The delicate face was eclipsed, like a rain flower. Bai Cha hurriedly whispered to comfort her, "Master, don't be sad, why don't you let the imperial doctor prescribe a few prescriptions to recuperate?" ”
Doctor Yu's ears moved, touched his beard and said, "It's a three-point poison in medicine, and the master's body doesn't need to be conditioned, so it's better not to drink medicine." ”
Zhuang Zhao had no choice but to nod and say, "It's troublesome for the doctor, paper inkstone, send the doctor out." ”
When the paper inkstone sent the imperial physician out, he also asked him, "Imperial Physician Yu didn't miss anything just now, right?" There was a coercion in his words.
Yu Taiyi's heart trembled, "How could it be." His Highness summoned me for consultation, and I should know that I have nothing to say. "He still dares to offend the crown prince now? It's not that I'm tired of being crooked.
However, he thought for a moment and said, "I have a set of fertile booklets, if Your Highness needs it......"
Before he finished speaking, the hand of the paper inkstone reached over.
Imperial Physician Yu hurriedly took out the booklet from the bottom of the medicine box.
Paper Yan snorted, this old thing, he didn't ask, he still refused to take it out, right?
Imperial Physician Yu smiled and said, "It's not a momentary urgency, forget it." In fact, he wanted to hang the prince for a while and then take it out. In this way, his ability will be revealed, and the prince will pay more attention to him. But now I don't have much patience to see the prince.,╭(╯^╰)╮。
After Yu Hansi left, Zhuang Zhao touched his stomach, his face was bulging like a bun, his slender fingers poked his stomach, and muttered, "Really, why are you so unlucky." ”
Bai Cha was amused by her childish behavior, "Master, don't poke, be careful that the little master won't come when he's angry." ”
Zhuang Zhao withdrew his hand and snorted twice, "I won't drink ice in the future." "Ice hurts.
"Then dare to be kind, the slave maid will order to go down" Bai Cha lifted his feet and walked out.
"Hey, wait" Zhuang Zhao hurriedly called out to her, hesitating, "Do you want to eat another bowl today?" ”
Several palace maids in the hall couldn't help laughing, and the hall was a lot happier.
Zhuang Zhao pursed his lips, looking aggrieved.
When the prince came in the evening, she could still hang an oil bottle on her mouth.
She hugged the prince's lean waist and coquettishly, the prince lowered his head and smiled, "Do you really want to be pregnant?" ”
Zhuang Zhao nodded firmly.
The prince picked her up, and the warm breath blew in her ears, "Imperial Doctor Yu gave me a booklet, let's try it one by one, and we will definitely be able to conceive." ”
Zhuang Zhao rarely took the initiative to hook his neck, and the corners of his mouth were coquettish.
