Chapter 65. The ministers of the side hall spoke short and long
Dongfang Yi's face was calm, but in fact, he secretly pinched the porcelain bottle, and once again guessed what Su Musha meant: clear heat and detoxify? Suitable for all ages? And one bottle is obviously not enough, and I have to eat it again. What is this, a threat? Piecemeal means can't be put on the table.
He glanced at Su Musha with a complicated expression, as if he felt sorry, and then asked lightly: "Thank you for the medicine, how much does the medicine cost?" ”
"Let's see."
Su Musha didn't politely push back, just kidding, she was originally here to knock on the silver, of course, how much can be knocked, and the silver that can't be reached has to be thrown out.
How much you give in the East depends on how much your father is worth in your heart.
However, Dongfang Yi's generosity still surprised Su Musha, so he didn't feel panicked when he carried some gold leaves on his body, why didn't he change them to tickets? Convenient and safe.
Su Mu covered up and thanked him for a long time, and collected those dazzling things properly.
Dongfang Yi's gaze moved back to the row cage that Su Mu was carrying, and asked as if he was in a good mood: "Actually, I've always wanted to ask, what you often have on your body is a phoenix flute?" I didn't know you were good at this, but you were so versatile. ”
Su Musha played with her cage and replied casually: "Since you asked, I am not humble." I can not only play the phoenix flute, but also play the piano, drums, and strings, but they are all fur, boring, used to pass the time, and I can't get on the stage. ”
Coming and going, asking and answering, to outsiders, it really seems to be chatting in the air, thinking of what to say, without any direction.
But Dongfang Yi knew it himself, and none of the words he asked were nonsense.
Su Wan'er detoxified Dongfang Yun and poisoned it again.
This news sounded ridiculous at first, but the general's office did not relax its vigilance after learning about it, just like any information from unknown sources, on the one hand, to prevent the loss from expanding—to ask the doctor to treat Dongfang Yun, and on the other hand, to find out the source—to send someone to inquire where the news leaked from.
The doctors who were invited into the mansion were a little confused, and the people in the mansion did not directly say where the general was unwell, but only asked them to take the pulse of peace, so that they would have some ill problems if they were not sick, and left a prescription for recuperation. One by one, the "good treatment of medicine, not the disease is meritorious" has been brought into full play.
According to the reports of those who went out to listen, the news has spread to half the city, but the accounts are different.
Some people say that the general was not poisoned in the first place. Fake poisoning is an ulterior motive.
Some people also say that the doctor who treats the general actually doesn't know how to detoxify at all, just to survive, pretending, who knows that the blind cat bumped into a dead mouse. He cured the general.
Some people also say that the general is being sought revenge, and the enemy is ruthless, and the reason why he poisoned, detoxified and poisoned again was to try to make the general die and live, and he would not die well.
And this news seems to have come out of nowhere, A heard from B, B learned about it from C, and C said that A revealed it. Circling around, in circles. The source could not be found.
Therefore, Dongfang Yun ordered to send someone to keep an eye on the movements of the Xiaoxiao Gang, and at the same time asked Dongfang Yi to come and test it, and be sure to find out the other party's purpose.
So Dongfang Yi invited Su Musha to the banquet, and the two seemed to be just having some conversations, without mentioning this rumor word by word. But in fact, Dongfang's question was full of meaning, and Su Musha also replied in two by two. Her face was very calm, because she had told the truth in the first place, or most of it.
She really cares about the court's placement of the gang.
She did make a heat-clearing and detoxifying medicine.
She does play the phoenix flute, play the moon qin, and pull the strings.
As for the words she didn't say. Then it is unknown.
…………
In the depths of the palace, in a side hall, the emperor sat on a chair, and in front of him stood several dignitaries of the court. There is not only Lin Nuo, who has been hot recently, but also Dongfang Yun, who has just recovered from a serious illness. This is not a formal court meeting, His Majesty's health has always been bad, and the last court is also three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, but whenever his spirit is better, he will recruit a few ministers to come to this side hall to talk.
The side hall is not large. Anyone who says a word can clearly reach the ears of the emperor, and those who can be summoned by the emperor are all high-ranking officials of the third grade or above, and they are also people who have been crawling for more than ten years in the court. The emperor was in a bad mood, so no one wanted to speak, and the ministers in the palace were expressionless, and even the sound of swallowing saliva could be heard in the silence around them.
The emperor was dressed in the civilian clothes of Liangzhou Huajin today, with a coiled dragon belt around his waist, his figure was thin, and the small civilian clothes looked a little dangling on him. He sat in the chair, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked tired, where was the momentum of an emperor looking down on the world.
"Lin Qing, how is the investigation of the fairy water case?" The Emperor asked softly.
Lin Nuo stood at the last one on the left-hand side, and when he heard this, he bowed and said: "Back to Your Majesty, after the old minister took over, he investigated and interrogated several people separately, and there are already some clues, all of which have been recorded in the excerpt presented to His Majesty yesterday." ”
The corners of the emperor's lips curled slightly and said: "Lin Qing has only taken over this case for a short time, and there is such a result, I am very relieved, look at the seat." ”
The little eunuch moved an embroidery pier over, and Lin Nuo sat on it without saying a word. The ministers in the side hall looked at each other, and each thought to themselves: Is this courtesy a bit too much? Alas, who made the family a courtier of two dynasties, and served on the side when the first emperor was there, basically watching the emperor who was originally the crown prince grow up.
But having said that, Lin Nuo is not the only one in this court, he is a courtier of two courts, not to mention far away, Lord Dongfang is the same time as him. Besides, there is also the current Shangshu Servant Lu Yuan Changlu, who is much older than Lin Nuo in terms of rank and age, and he does not have this honor.
The emperor continued: "Lu Aiqing, a few days ago, Tang Jide, a member of the Zhongshu House, wrote to impeach you, saying that many officials are greedy for ink, and it is not good to treat the fairy water for a long time, and even there are many addicts who smoke it in private, all because you are incompetent in governing the country, and you want to return to Lao Qiu [Note 1]. also made a plan to say that the Xiaoxiao gang should be controlled, how does Aiqing want to do this. ”
"The old minister is incompetent, and he is willing to return to his hometown." Lu Yuanchang, who had a white beard and white hair, took a trembling step and knelt down.
"Are you incompetent or incompetent, this is referring to Sang scolding Huai, can't you hear it, punish him for slandering the court." The emperor simply closed his eyes again as he spoke.
Dongfang Yun suddenly stood up and said: "The ancients had a warning to Emperor Yun: 'It can be one for those who cry bitterly, and two for those who have runny nose.'" 'Since ancient times, the book is not exciting, can not move the heart of the master, the so-called madman's words, the sage chooses, only His Majesty xià judges, not to mention that the plan of Lord Tang may not be useless. ”
The emperor opened his eyes suddenly, his gaze shot at Dongfang Yun, who spoke, and reprimanded him sharply, "Dongfang Yun, you have been raised for more than a month due to poisoning, and now there are some rumors outside that you have not been poisoned, I want to ask, have you been poisoned!" ”
The Son of Heaven was angry, and the house was quieter.
