Youshu thought that the Queen Mother would do it immediately, but after waiting for two or three months, there was no movement, so she had to let the old ghost inquire about the situation.
When the old ghost came, he was lying on the lap of the Seventh Prince basking in the sun, his little belly was upside down, his four paws were facing the sky, and his nose was making a slight humming sound. To be honest, this hum is not unpleasant, but the milk is very cute and can melt the roots of human ears. The Seventh Prince was clearly enjoying it, one hand gently holding his wagging tail, and the other stroking back and forth on his belly, his expression doting.
However, the old ghost had goosebumps all over his body at the thought of a man's soul wrapped in this skin, and that this person could naturally pretend to be stupid and look like a dog. He really couldn't understand how anyone could be so comfortable as a dog.
"Youshu, when did you go out of the palace to find that demon woman? Aren't you afraid that you will never be able to regain your human form? He has been holding back this sentence for a long time, and he is not unhappy today.
"Don't worry, wait until the master's leg is fully recovered. Did the Queen Mother do it there? Youshu teased her eyelids.
"Hands-on. The eighth prince was poisoned on the night he left Cining Palace, along with Concubine Hui. This toxin can make people feel unprovoked and energetic during the day, but after falling asleep at night, they will quickly lose energy and eventually die of weakness. Unless a national player like me, ordinary imperial doctors can't detect it at all. I calculate, in another two or three months, the Eighth Prince will not be able to hold on, and Concubine Hui will still live for a year and a half. "The old ghost pinched his fingers to convert.
"How long is it going to take?" Youshu turned over and asked the master to continue to scratch his back.
At this moment, a eunuch rushed over and whispered in the ear of the Seventh Prince. After Youshu became a dog, her five senses became more acute, and even if the other party tried her best to lower her voice, she heard it clearly. The eighth prince prostituted himself during the day, and got involved with a little palace maid in Ganquan Palace, but he didn't expect his body to be too weak, and he actually got a stroke, and now he has foamed at the mouth and fainted, pinching people, pouring cold water, pinching his fingers, and he can't wake up no matter how he gets it. Concubine Hui originally intended to cover it up, but when she saw that her son was so sick, she sent someone to find the imperial doctor.
Now that all the palaces have received the news, they are waiting to see the jokes of Ganquan Palace. At the age of thirteen, he became obsessed with women, and he also had a stroke and lay down, which was enough to pour a big scoop of sewage on the royal family surnamed Ji. The eighth prince used to be favored because of his temperament, and his personality was quite cold and arrogant, and he often used derogatory ways to elevate himself, but now this kind of ugly thing happened, don't say whether it can be cured, even if it is cured, I am afraid that I will not be able to raise my head in this life.
"Immediately windy?" The old ghost obviously also heard the eunuch's reply, shook his head and said, "It's not an immediate stroke, it should be a temporary fainting formed by the extreme mental excitement after being poisoned." This is troublesome, Ben still has three months to live, and the toxicity is suddenly stimulated, I'm afraid I won't live for three days. ”
"Three good days." Youshu got up with a grunt and wagged her tail happily. Although he became a Qing official for a lifetime, he did not become a virgin, and it was clear between the eighth prince and the master that he could only live one, and of course he would choose the master.
"The Imperial Doctor said he wouldn't survive?" The Seventh Prince hurriedly held the puppy that suddenly jumped up in the palm of his hand, twisted his eyebrows and asked, "Can you call a few more imperial doctors to take a look?" He was only thirteen years old, and it was impossible to get that kind of disease at this age. ”
"Concubine Hui called half of the doctors in the hospital, and they all said that it was that, and now she is foaming at the mouth, twitching all over, and she can't wake up no matter what." The eunuch said firmly.
The Seventh Prince pondered for a moment, and suddenly smiled, "It's too cheap to die like this." But don't worry, the good mother concubine of this palace should think of this palace at this moment, after all, Deng Chaoshan, the national hand of Dayan, is now the exclusive imperial doctor of this palace. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a palace maid outside, saying that Concubine Hui asked to see her.
"Let her in." The Seventh Prince waved his hand, and when he saw Youshu staring at him with dark eyes, he kissed him on the head and whispered softly, "Good Youshu, I said that I would avenge you, so I can't let the eighth child die in the hands of others, even if it's an accident." As if he remembered something, he nodded his nose and said apologetically, "You are still young, and you shouldn't have known these things." When you grow up, I'll explain it to you the same way. ”
Seeing Concubine Hui running into the main hall with tears in her eyes, she was about to cry, he immediately covered Youshu's ears and warned in a cold voice, "Mother, don't be in a hurry to cry first, wait until the palace is settled." He likes to be quiet, if he is noisy by you, he should eat a bowl of rice later, he is growing up now, and he can't afford to delay it at all. ”
For the current Seven Princes, the court disputes are not enough, and the past hatred can also be slowed down, and the only important thing is to feed Youshu, so that he can eat more and grow faster, and it is best that when he opens his eyes tomorrow morning, he can become a beautiful young man with a stripe and lie in his arms.
If anyone misses this major event, he can be ruthless if he turns his face.
Concubine Hui had a request for help, so she had to reluctantly press it, staring at the puppy's eyes and spewing fire.
The Seventh Prince rubbed Youshu's hairy head unhurriedly, kissed his pink-tender little meat pad, and tirelessly advised, "Go outside with Xiaoshunzi to play for a while, don't jump down when you see the steps, beware of falling; Don't pounce on insects and bite them, beware of poison; Don't go near strangers, neither can strange animals, they are not as smart as you, who knows if they will suddenly scratch you and bite you......"
Seeing that he had an endless posture, Youshu hurriedly stretched out his paw and patted the back of his hand, and his nose let out an eager whining.
The Seventh Prince was helpless, and waved his hand at Xiao Shunzi, "Take him to play, it's okay if he gets dirty, don't get hurt, otherwise you are the only one in this palace." ”
Xiao Shunzi hadn't received the order yet, Concubine Hui couldn't help it, and said anxiously, "Old Seven, have you put your mother concubine in your eyes?" Is this dog important, or is it the mother and your brother who are important? The eighth child is like that now......"
The Seventh Prince covered Youshu's ears and said, "Mother Concubine, if you want to save the life of the eighth child, you will shut up in the palace!" How do you and the eighth treat the palace, do you want the palace to be exposed? The reason why this palace avoids you is just to save some face for everyone. The eighth child's dirty things, you want to say, this palace doesn't want to listen to it, let alone let Youshu listen to it. ”
Concubine Hui was dumbfounded, and then remembered that her son was no longer the puppet he used to manipulate at will. Even if he is not good at doing it now, he is an incomparably sharp sword, and he will be injured when he touches it. He doesn't need to rely on the Ouyang family, let alone Ganquan Palace, he is only thirteen years old but he has already been crowned the prince, fighting against hundreds of civil and military officials, controlling the government with all the elders, and even on an equal footing with several old imperial uncles. His appearance is still immature, but once he sinks his face, he exudes a power that even Emperor Jing can't reach.
Concubine Hui's legs and stomach were weak, and she almost knelt down, but fortunately, two palace maids supported her left and right, so she didn't lose her temper. She watched with palpitations as her son let go of the puppy's ears, kissed it on the head again, and instructed in an unprecedentedly soft tone, "Go play, and you'll have to come back as soon as my whistle blows later." ”
Youshu glared at the jade whistle hanging on the master's neck with great resentment, and ran away.
Without waiting for the puppy to run away, Concubine Hui immediately pounced on her son, begging and crying, trying her best to tell her guilt and remorse. When the eighth child lay down on the belly of the palace maid, she completely regretted it. The child she raised with her own hands, fantasizing about one day reaching the top and bringing her supreme power, turned out to be such a thing, not a martial artist, only thirteen years old addicted to women, absurdity-prowess, except for a clever mouth, it is simply useless.
But even if the eighth child becomes a weapon again, it is also her life-root, and she can't give it up.
The Seventh Prince didn't say a word, just stared at Concubine Hui with deep and unfathomable eyes, and when she had cried enough, she was tired of crying, and she almost fainted before she said, "Go back, this palace will go to ask your father for you." "Although Deng Chaoshan is his exclusive imperial doctor, after all, he is his father's person, so he naturally needs his father's permission. However, the eighth child is the son of his father after all, even if he is angry, it is impossible for him to die without help.
Concubine Hui also understood this truth, but she didn't have the face to ask Emperor Jing, so she asked Lao Qi to come forward. The eighth child is only thirteen years old this year, and he slept with his mother's palace maid during the day, and fainted to death when he was still agitated. Even if he rescues the eighth child, the emperor probably won't bother to look at him.
Concubine Hui's panicked heart added a few touches of despair, and when she walked out of Guangling Palace, she looked back, and finally understood what she had lost and what she had done wrong. If she didn't listen to her brother and raised her two children safely, she wouldn't have to get involved in this palace at all, and she wouldn't have been empty. She originally had such a good, handsome child, he could turn his hands into clouds and rain in the court at the age of thirteen, and when he grew up in the next year, how dazzling would he be?
Ruined, all ruined! She suddenly hid her face and staggered away.
Emperor Jing knew that Concubine Hui went to ask for Lao Qi, but he didn't expect Lao Qi to abandon his previous suspicions to find himself. On the one hand, he sighed that the child was benevolent and righteous, and on the other hand, he sent someone to summon Deng Chaoshan into the palace. Deng Chaoshan shook his head after inspecting it, "It's not an immediate stroke, it's poisoning." ”
"Poisoned? Did you do it? Concubine Hui was stunned at first, and then went to see Lao Qi, her face full of resentment.
Emperor Jing shook his hand and slapped him, and said coldly, "I see that you are hopeless." Do you think that the seventh and the eighth are the same as the eighth, and they are brutes who don't care about family affection? "Besides, Lao Qi lives under his nose, and his eyeliner is all around him, how can such a big action not be discovered? However, there are some words that inevitably hurt feelings, and there is no need to find out why.
The Seventh Prince covered Youshu's ears with one hand, blocked his eyes with the other, lowered his eyes, and did not say a word. After all, his father misjudged him. When necessary, he can also deny his relatives, but he does not forget to pull a banner of benevolence and righteousness to cover it, not like the eighth child, stupid and naked, so stupid that people can't wait to cut it with a thousand knives.
Concubine Hui's head was missed, and the corner of her mouth was cracked, and she was suddenly silent.
Over there, Deng Chaoshan had already removed some of the toxins for the Eighth Emperor and went to the side hall to prescribe medicine. Emperor Jing and Concubine Hui hurriedly followed, wanting to ask him what kind of poison the eighth child had been in, and even more wanted to find out the real culprit behind the scenes.
The Seventh Prince turned his wheelchair to the side of the bed, and seeing that the eighth child was about to wake up, he gently held one of his hands and looked at it with unfathomable eyes. The Eighth Prince was startled at first, and then furious, but he couldn't speak because of his weak body, so he could only moan intermittently. In shock, he heard the other party's earnest advice, "Old eight, you must not die at the hands of others." Your life, this palace has been booked. ”
The Eighth Prince opened his mouth, spat out a series of broken breath sounds, and finally rolled his eyes and fainted. In a trance, he realized that he felt as if he had been entangled in a poisonous snake.
