Zhao Mu drank the third antidote prepared by Rong Zhao for him for less than a quarter of an hour, and the whole person was sweating profusely, and his close-fitting middle coat was soaked, as if he had been fished out of the water. Rong Zhao frowned and instructed the maid next to him: "Immediately wipe off the sweat on his body with a hot hand towel, this sweat is poisonous and can no longer penetrate into the skin through the pores." ”

When Xiao Heng heard this, how dare he slack off, and called two little guys to come in to help, eager to roll up his sleeves and wipe Zhao Mu's sweat in person.

Zhao Mu was extremely weak and had no strength at all, although fortunately, he even closed his eyes and let the people next to him toss.

"These sweat-stained hand towels are discarded in the basin and washed several times before being used." Zi Ji instructed the two maids.

"Bring more handkerchiefs!" Xiao Heng shouted anxiously.

The person at the door hurriedly went and got a stack of white cotton cloth to soak in hot water and wipe Zhao Mu's body.

For more than an hour, the sweat on Zhao Mu's body finally stopped. Xiao Zhengshi ordered someone to bring clean clothes to change for him, and moved the person to another place, and took out all the bedding on the bed and burned it, so that the room was quiet.

"Rong Zhao." Zhao Mu called out in a low voice.

"Huh?" Rong Zhao, who was sitting in front of him and carefully checking his pulse, also answered in a low voice.

Zhao Mu looked at Rong Zhao's handsome and stern face, and said seriously: "Thank you." ”

Rong Zhao withdrew his hand with satisfaction, and sighed softly: "Lord Wang doesn't have to be polite, I didn't give you an antidote in vain." In addition, there are six kinds of poison in your body, and now there are only three of them, and the remaining three will become more and more difficult to solve, and they will also consume more and more vitality of your body, and I don't know if you can hold it up like this. ”

"Thank you no matter what the outcome is." Zhao Mu said again.

"Lord Wang, don't speak, take care of your spirit...... Well, we'll take the next antidote in five days. Rong Zhao said, raising his hand to put Zhao Mu's arm into the quilt.

"Why?" Zhao Mu asked puzzled.

Rong Zhao shook his head and said worriedly: "I don't think with the current condition of your body, you can't afford the next dose of antidote." ”

Zhao Mu immediately looked defeated. Seeing this, Rong Zhao wanted to say something to comfort him, but Zi Ji suddenly hurriedly came in the door and shouted: "Childe! ”

"What's wrong?" Rong Zhao turned his head and asked.

Zi Ji glanced at Zhao Mu and didn't speak.

"Let's say, the prince is not an outsider." Rong Zhao glanced at Zhao Mu, whose face was pale and his eyes were slightly closed, thinking that this person should not be nosy.

"That pig ......" Zi Ji hesitated, she didn't say Sheng Qiong's name in the end, this guy's name is too famous, and he will definitely be scared to death when he says it.

"What's wrong?" Rong Zhao couldn't help frowning.

"It's like I'm being targeted. He was injured in the head and couldn't remember who his surname was, so if the household department inquired, he was afraid that it would be difficult to explain. Zi Ji said this, in fact, she was reminding Rong Rong Zhao that Rong Zhao had already thought about what to do about Sheng Qiong, but he was in a hurry to detoxify Zhao Mu before he had time to do it.

"Are you talking about a person?" Zhao Mu asked weakly.

Rong Zhao frowned and glanced at him, got up and said, "Lord Wang, let's rest." ”

"Cousin, help me talk to my uncle." Zhao Mu said, turning his head to look at Xiao Heng next to him.

"Don't worry, my father won't sit idly by." Xiao Heng hurriedly opened his mouth and took the matter down.

"Okay, this matter is not for the prince to worry about, the prince is still good to give birth to." Rong Zhao said and instructed the maid serving next to him, "After half an hour, give the prince red dates, black rice, and Ejiao porridge." ”

Zhao Mu opened his eyes and looked at Rong Zhao's departing back, and smiled weakly: "Isn't that what the mother drinks?" ”

Rong Zhao had already walked to the door, and when he heard this, he turned around and said funny: "Yes, Lord Wang, your body is weaker than a mother now, so you must drink more." ”

Rong Zhao went out, and just walked opposite Xiao Zhengshi, who hurriedly entered the door, so he hurriedly said: "Lord Xiao, I happen to have something to find you here, let's talk in another place." ”

Xiao Zhengshi grabbed Rong Zhao's wrist and said, "It just so happens that I have something to look for you, so you can go with me." ”

"Huh? Where to? Rong Zhao was pulled by Xiao Zhengshi all the way and walked out quickly.

"Get in the car first, and talk about something on the road." Xiao Zhengshi pulled Rong Zhao into an inconspicuous carriage.

Rong Zhao glanced at Zi Ji, who was quickly squeezing in, and asked Xiao Zhengshi, "Where are you going?" ”

"Concubine De is in Rui Wang's Mansion, I have something to ask you. When you meet Niangniang, say what you should say, and don't talk nonsense if you shouldn't. lest the mother worry about King Rui's illness and be depressed and hurt her body again. Xiao Zhengshi said solemnly.

"Is it good news or not bad news?" Rong Zhao asked funny.

"If only you understood." Xiao Zhengshi said with a stiff face.

Rong Zhao was not in a hurry to agree, but said: "It's not difficult for you to let me report good news or bad news, but I have already solved the three poisons of King Tirui, Lord Xiao, you should also hug this great kindness a little, right?" ”

The Xiao family's family rules are very strict, and the relatives and friends who come and go are also etiquette families, Xiao Zhengshi has never met a person who talks to him like this at this age, and he was angry for a while, staring at Rong Zhao speechless.

"What, you want to pay the bill?!" Rong Zhao's eyes widened, "You should be the most dignified official in the world, right?" You actually do such a thing as talking without words? ”

Xiao Zhengshi slapped his thigh in anger and scolded: "Nonsense! Is the old man the one who broke his word and got fat?! ”

Rong Zhao breathed a sigh of relief with an exaggerated expression and said, "That's good, that's good." Otherwise, I have consumed so many precious medicinal materials, and I will have hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, if you repay the debt, I will die of loss. ”

"Hundreds of thousands?!" Xiao Zheng didn't faint at the moment.

"What, isn't the life of your family Rui Wang Ye even worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver?"

"You...... You are talking nonsense! The prince is the prince of the prince, and he is the world! How can it be measured in money?! Xiao Zhengshi was so angry that there was smoke on the top of his head.

"Isn't that the end of it?" Rong Zhao rolled his eyes and snorted disdainfully.

"How much silver do you want, report the number, if the old man can't make it up, I will set up a note for you first!" Xiao Zhengshi snorted.

"This is not in a hurry, three of the six poisons have been solved, and there are three more behind! How do I settle accounts first? In this way, I will trouble Lord Xiao for one thing, and Lord Xiao will give me a little hard money. As for the cost of medicinal materials, I will calculate it carefully when I have solved all the poisons on King Rui's body. Anyway, I can still trust the Xiao family. ”

Xiao Zhengshi snorted coldly and said, "You still know the dignified Xiao family!" Don't talk so much nonsense now, if you have anything to trouble the old man, just say it! ”

"I took in an entourage on the way to Beijing, this guy was beaten in the head, and no one remembers his last name. I just saw that he had the strength to stay by his side, but today my people have already found out that he is trying to find out what trouble he wants to find me. I wonder if Lord Xiao has a way to get a household registration for my servant? ”

"It's as simple as that?" Xiao Zhengshi looked at Rong Zhao in wonder, and always felt that there must be something wrong here.

Rong Zhao flattened his mouth and said, "Of course, this is simple for you, but it is even more difficult for me, a person who has no foundation in the capital city, than to ascend to the sky." Do you help or not? If you don't help, I'll see Concubine De and say I'm quitting later, I have to take my people back to Xiliang. ”

"You said that the person you picked up doesn't remember who he is, so how does the old man know that this person is not a fine work of the enemy country of Fanbang, or some kind of killer or something like that sneaked into the capital with your convoy? This is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, in case such a person comes to accidentally shake the country's capital! Xiao Zhengshi said.

Rong Zhao immediately said with a smile: "Oh, I said Lord Xiao! You're so upright! The guy I picked up was like a fool, didn't you hear Zi Ji call him a 'pig'? He can just eat, and he has a little more strength. If such a person is a meticulous work, what kind of killer is the rivers and lakes, I don't believe you kill him! ”

"Then you have to call someone to the old man and let me have a look." Xiao Zhengshi said.

"Okay! Okay, okay! At this time, I am begging you to do something, and naturally you will do whatever you say. But ......"

"You also promised that the old man would not talk nonsense in front of Concubine De!"

"Yes! I agreed. Rong Zhao nodded with a smile, "I will never talk nonsense, I will only tell the truth, the truth, the truth, the truth, the truth." Okay, right? ”

"You!" Xiao Zhengshi began to smoke again on the top of his head.

"Lord Xiao is upright, he shouldn't be the kind of person who likes to talk and make people happy, Rong Zhao wants to study hard with you, Lord Xiao." Rong Zhao smiled with crooked eyebrows and innocent face.

"You did it on purpose!" Xiao Zhengshi pointed to Rong Zhao's nose, turned around anxiously and looked outside the curtains, then turned around and pointed at Rong Zhao and said, "You can only say good and bad, you must let Niangniang rest assured." That thing of yours is wrapped up in the old man! ”

"No, no, no...... My labor fee is not just a small thing! Rong Zhao shook his head again and again.

"What else is going on with you? Just say it together! Xiao Zhengshi's heart was all over at this time, if it weren't for this hateful guy holding King Rui's life in his hands, he would have kicked him out of the carriage eight hundred times!

"I want to stay in the imperial capital, no matter what you think, anyway, as long as the emperor agrees not to let me go back to Xiliang. In addition, I also want Concubine De to take care of my sister in the palace, our sister and brother are helpless here, and the Xiao family will be our support in the future. Rong Zhao said.

Xiao Zhengshi didn't get angry when he heard this, Rong Zhao is the prince of Jingxi, it is really easy to make excuses for wanting to keep such a person in the capital, and his sister is the emperor's new favorite, if he can join forces with Concubine De in the palace, Concubine De will not be too lonely. It's just that the only thing I'm worried about is the temperament of the Rong sister and brother, this younger brother is such a scoundrel, and the sister doesn't know what kind of arrogance and domineering she is, if Concubine Yue has a perverse temperament and refuses to be a little low in front of Concubine De, I'm afraid that Concubine De will not be happy in her heart.

Rong Zhao looked at Xiao Zhengshi and was silent, so he said impatiently: "Can't you do these things, Lord Xiao?" ”

"These things are not difficult, but ......" Xiao Zhengshi looked up and saw the cunning gaze in Rong Zhao's peach blossom eyes, and hurriedly changed his words before he could speak: "It's just that how can I believe that you won't talk nonsense when you see Concubine De later?" ”

"Well, my character is not guaranteed, and it's normal that you can't believe it. I still trust your character, as long as you nod, I will definitely reassure Concubine De later. But if you can't do what you promised me...... Don't even try to save King Rui's life. ”

Xiao Zhengshi immediately glared at Rong Zhao sternly and said: "The old man repeats again: the old man is by no means a man who breaks his word and gets fat!" ”

"Deal." Rong Zhao high-fived and laughed.

Xiao Zhengshi slanted a hard glance at the stinky boy in front of him, and turned his head angrily.

*

Goodbye Concubine Xiao De, Rong Zhao's amazement for this woman was no worse than the first time. Thinking about the mother-son connection, the son's life and death are uncertain, as a mother, Concubine Xiao Defei has not been doing well these days, although her original white face is haggard, but her cold eyes are still calm and calm, sitting on the couch with a straight back, still dignified and unchanging, and her demeanor is extraordinary.

"Rong Zhao see Concubine De Niangniang. Concubine De Niangniang Wan Fu Jin'an! Rong Zhao bowed.

Concubine Xiao Defei first glanced at Xiao Zhengshi, who was standing beside Rong Zhao, and after the two brothers and sisters met their eyes, Fang said, "Rong Shizi, please get up." You've worked hard these days. ”

"Niangniang is polite, Lord Rui is also a friend with him, how can Rong Zhao not save him when he dies." Rong Zhao straightened up as he spoke, and his handsome little face had a stern expression, but he also looked like a son.

"There are no outsiders here, so you don't have to be polite." Concubine De raised her hand and pointed to the old sandalwood carved square chair on her right, "Sit down." ”

"Xie Niangniang." After Rong Zhao thanked him, he didn't care about Xiao Zhengshi, who was still standing, and took the lead in sitting down.

Concubine De didn't mind, and pointed to the chair on the left hand side and said, "Brother should sit too." ”

"Xie Niangniang." After Xiao Zhengshi bowed respectfully to Concubine De, he turned around and went to the chair to sit down upright.

Rong Zhao complained in his heart that Xiao Zhengshi was sitting upright, but he was not too shapeless, so he secretly straightened his waist.

Concubine De asked Xiao Zhengshi to bring Rong Zhao to Rui Wangfu, naturally worried about her son's body, because she asked: "Rong Shizi, Zilin's body is okay now, right?" ”

"Hui Niangniang, the prince is weak, and the medicine can't be too fast and too violent, so it will take half a month to twenty days to heal."

"You mean...... Heal?! Concubine De was overjoyed, and there was immediately brilliance in her calm eyes.

"Yes." Rong Zhao leaned over and said.

Xiao Zhengshi was afraid that Rong Zhao would change his words, so he hurriedly interjected: "Niangniang, don't worry, a girl next to Rong Gongzi is the daughter of a famous drug refining family in the rivers and lakes, and this nine-link poison spectrum was developed by the girl's ancestors. Therefore, the poisonous people of these nine links naturally can't solve it, but Rong Shizi will definitely be able to solve it. ”

"That's great!" The breath that Concubine De was holding in her heart was suddenly relieved, and suddenly a thousand sadness welled up in her heart, and she couldn't help but have red circles in her eyes.

Although Concubine Xiao Defei's appearance is not extremely beautiful, she has been infiltrated by poetry and books since she was a child, and she has been influenced by piano and painting, she is a graceful and elegant woman who is out of the world to the extreme. And at this time, I saw her crying, and I sighed for a while, it turned out that the goddess of Gao Leng took off her mask and moved her true feelings, but she was so cute. And such a person is still beautiful even if he is old, so why does the old emperor let such a beauty not favor but fall in love with his sister at first sight? In this way, it seems that the men in this world are not fucking things, eating from the bowl and looking at the pot and looking at the basin, I wish that all the good women in the world are their own!

"Young Master Rong is really the benefactor of our mother and son!" Concubine Xiao Defei wiped away her tears, regained her previous elegance and dignity, turned her head to Xiao Zhengshi and said, "Rong Gongzi's parents and family are not in the capital, thinking that he is young, there must be a lot of inconvenience. The elder brother must take care of Gongzi Rong for the palace. ”

"Rest assured, this minister naturally knows it. On the way here, the minister was thinking that Concubine Yue would enter the palace after the Shangyuan Festival and be canonized, Rong Shizi was weak and sick since he was a child, and he couldn't lead the troops to fight, for the sake of long-term planning, he should stay in the capital is the best policy. Xiao Zhengshi muttered, "So the minister wants to discuss with Niangniang, and when the long-lived lord comes back, he will advise the emperor to let the sons of several heroes who have served in the border enter the country to study the sage books for a few years." ”

"So? Brother can just do it. Concubine De pondered for a while, then smiled slightly, "I just don't know if Rong Shizi can stand the rules of the Guozi Prison?" ”

"Guozijian ......" Rong Zhao was stunned for a moment, and wanted to ask what Guozijian did, but the words changed again: "Are there many rules?" ”

Xiao Zhengshi saw through at a glance what this guy who didn't learn martial arts was thinking, and he felt annoyed for a while, because he said in a cold voice: "It is the highest university in my Great Qi Country, and it is the holy place for scholars. You tell me? ”

"Ah...... A holy place for scholars? Rong Zhao blinked his eyes and sighed helplessly, "Our Great Qi State does not hold the imperial examination, so what's the use of getting a national eunuch?" ”

"You ......" Xiao Zhengshi was angry again.

"Brother!" Concubine De hurriedly raised her hand to stop Xiao Zhengshi's words, looked at Rong Zhao with a chuckle, and said, "Rong Shizi, a man standing between heaven and earth can't do it with just some clever tricks. Moreover, do you know that there are 3,000 beauties in the harem, why there are four concubines, nine concubines and seventy-two wives under the queen? To put it bluntly, doesn't it depend on the power of the concubines' mother's family? Your sister was crowned a concubine before she entered the palace, and in addition to the fact that she herself is an outstanding woman, it is more due to your father and brother's achievements on the battlefield, right? However, as soon as you enter the palace gate, if your sister wants to live well in the harem, the key is whether the Rong family, especially you and your father and brothers, can do anything. If you want to be your sister's backer, you must first establish yourself in the capital, the so-called Wencheng martial arts, you were born in a martial arts family but you can't practice martial arts, and you can only study well. Otherwise, not only will you not be able to help your sister in the future, but with the friendship of your sister and brother, this palace will be able to conclude that you will be her weakness. Think about it, what did this palace say or not? ”

Hearing this, Rong Zhao suddenly wilted. Now that he is sitting with Xiao Zhengshi and Concubine De, he Rong Zhao's casual words can make Xiao Zhengshi so angry that smoke rises above his head, and Concubine De's words can also dispel Rong Shizi's arrogance and even make him lower into the dust. Therefore, the beauty who is familiar with poetry and books and is full of wealth is the most terrifying.

"Then so be it, the old man over there is still a count." As for whether the emperor will agree...... Xiao Zhengshi glanced at Concubine De and didn't speak.

Concubine De is such a smart and clever person, when she received her brother's gaze, she chuckled and said, "In this world, Zilin is the life of this palace." Rong Shizi saved Zilin, and he is the life-saving benefactor of our mother and son. Besides, it is also lonely to be alone in the palace for so many years, and after Concubine Yue's sister enters the palace, the palace must treat her as her own sister. ”

When Rong Zhao heard this, he suddenly felt warm, so he hurriedly got up and saluted Concubine De, and said gratefully: "With the words of Niangniang, Rong Zhao can sleep well at night." ”

"Each other, each other. Rong Shizi is polite! Concubine Xiao Defei smiled.

"The prince's affairs are in the courtiers, and it is more appropriate for the mother to return to the palace. Although Long Live Lord is not ......there, Xiao Zhengshi was about to persuade Concubine De to return to the palace, when Mama Song's voice came from outside: "Niangniang! Xiao Zhengshi immediately closed his mouth.

Concubine De raised her voice and said, "Come in." ”

"The slave is reckless, the mother forgives the sin!" Mama Song knelt on the ground when she entered the door, and gasped eagerly: "Long live Lord has returned to Beijing, and he is on his way to Rui Wangfu...... Mother, my lord, please think of a way! ”

"What?! Why did the emperor come here? Rao has been in the officialdom for decades, and Xiao Zhengshi suddenly ran out of ideas.

On the contrary, Concubine De was quite calm, frowned and said: "It's useless to panic, call someone to prepare the car, and the palace will go to welcome the emperor." The emperor saw the palace and asked about Zilin's illness, so he probably wouldn't come to Rui Wangfu. ”

"No." Rong Zhao interrupted Concubine De's words, "Niangniang's move to retreat seems to be a good way, but if someone is more interested in saying in the emperor's ear that Niangniang and the Xiao family are secretly watching the emperor's whereabouts, this should be a big taboo, right?" ”

"......" Concubine De was speechless.

"Rong Zhao is right, Niangniang can't go." Xiao Zhengshi also echoed.

"What then? Is it too late to take Zilin over now? Concubine De frowned and asked.

"It's too late, and King Rui's current situation can't be moved casually." Rong Zhao also frowned slightly.

"If you let the emperor know the whole story of this matter, I'm afraid it will set off a bloody storm." Concubine De said worriedly.

Rong Zhao smiled indifferently and said, "It's nothing to set off a bloody storm, but I'm afraid that there are many things that Niangniang and Lord Xiao can't say clearly to the emperor." "For example, why King Rui was poisoned but didn't report it, what was Concubine De's plan to meet Xiao Zhengshi secretly in King Rui's Mansion, and so on. These things are royal taboos, and they have been in all dynasties.

"How can the mother and the old man explain to the emperor, don't worry about you. Now you hurry back to Qiuyuezhai. Xiao Zhengshi said, then turned around and asked someone to send Rong Zhao away immediately.

"Lord Xiao, slow down." Rong Zhao took two steps forward and walked in front of Xiao Zhengshi and said, "If I have a way to resolve this matter, will Lord Xiao still be in such a hurry to send me away?" ”

"Young Master Rong, please speak." Concubine De raised her hand to stop Xiao Zhengshi, who wanted to speak, and looked at Rong Zhao.

"My Zi Ji can do simple disguise techniques, she can make me look like King Rui, although it won't look very similar, but there are always seven or eight points. In addition, King Rui has been sick for so long, and it is common sense that his appearance is thin and out of shape, and it will not make the emperor suspect the prince's illness if it is not very similar. As long as King Rui is lying on the sickbed, it is natural for you and Lord Xiao to sit in this room and talk, no one can say anything, don't you say? Rong Zhao looked into Concubine De's eyes and smiled.

For so many years, no one dared to stare at her eyes like this, Concubine De was looked at like this by Rong Zhao, and felt for a moment that although this child was dissolute and a little unlearned, at least he was open-minded, so he nodded and said, "This is also a good idea." ”

"So what are you waiting for? Hurry up! The emperor has arrived! Mama Song urged.

Rong Zhao turned around and shouted outside the door, "Zi Ji, come in." ”

Zi Ji came in response, and as soon as she heard Rong Zhao say something, she immediately responded, and only said: "I didn't bring a lot of things with me, I'm afraid I can't dress up very similarly." ”

"It doesn't need to be very similar, just six or seven minutes. When Your Majesty comes, don't speak, just sleep with your eyes closed. A qiē has a main palace to deal with. Concubine De said.

"Don't worry, this." Rong Zhao smiled, "I haven't lived enough, but I don't want to die by myself." ”

"That's good, if you need something for Mama Song to prepare, you can hurry up and go in and clean up." Concubine De pointed in the direction of Zhao Mu's bedroom.

"Okay, you two, please come in with the minions." Mama Song owed, and took Rong Zhao and Ziji to turn the screen and enter the bedroom.

Xiao Zhengshi was still worried, but he couldn't say anything, just paced in place.

"Brother, this is a risky solution, but it is also the best way. Don't worry, sit down and have tea. Concubine De said, turned back to the main seat and sat down, and instructed the people outside the door: "Bring tea!" Also, hurry up and decoct the prince! ”

At this time, the errands at the door were all henchmen who had passed many times, and everyone was busy, cooking tea, soup, and decoction, and there was no idler in the whole yard.

The emperor has been hesitating on the way back to Beijing, he stayed in the Jizhou Palace for two days, Rong Yue's body is good and bad, and he has to endure hunger and weight loss, if it is not for the taboo of "dragon and tiger rushing", he can't wait to bring Rong Yue into the capital by the way. However, a sudden incident in the Jizhou Palace woke up the emperor like a basin of cold water, so he hurried back to the imperial capital.

A black-painted oil-walled carriage stopped at the door of King Rui's Mansion, and Zhang Wanshou, dressed in black riding clothes, turned over and dismounted and walked to the front of the car, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you go to King Rui's Mansion by the slave to take a look at King Rui's illness?" Zhang Tianshi's 'dragon and tiger clash with each other' have to be believed! ”

"Less nonsense!" The curtain of the carriage was lifted from the inside, and Emperor Zhao Xi bowed down and got out of the carriage, stretched out his hand and pressed Zhang Wanshou's shoulder and jumped out of the carriage, and said unhappily: "My own son can't take a look yet?!" ”

Zhang Wanshou hurriedly pleaded guilty: "The slave should die, the slave is too talkative!" His Majesty is granted by the Mandate of Heaven, and naturally there is nothing that cannot be done. ”

"Call the door." The emperor stared at the closed door of the Rui Palace's mansion with infinite concern, and frowned.

Zhang Wanshou stepped forward quickly, and knocked on the vermilion lacquer gate of King Rui's Mansion.

The door opened, and the people inside were stunned when they saw Zhang Wanshou, and then the people behind Zhang Wanshou immediately knelt. The emperor raised his feet and walked in without saying a word, Zhang Wanshou followed two steps and turned back and kicked the subordinate kneeling at the door, and scolded in a low voice: "Foolish things!" Why don't you go in and report it! ”

"Yes, yes...... Gonggong Xie reminded. The subordinate got up and ran desperately all the way in from the side of the hallway to report the news.

The emperor rushed all the way in with a cold face, and when he entered the IELTS hall where Zhao Mu lived on weekdays, he saw Concubine De, who was dressed in royal blue tuanhua peony pattern tribute satin lynx, with a personal palace maid and Xiao Zhengshi, who was dressed in homely robes, to the door of the house.

"The concubine (minister) see Majesty, Majesty Xià Long live Long live." Concubine De and Xiao Zhengshi, brother and sister, knelt down together.

"Get up." The emperor stretched out his hand and grabbed Concubine De without letting her kneel, carefully looked at her face, and raised his hand to rub her emaciated cheeks, Fang said to Xiao Zhengshi, who was already kneeling on the ground and touching the ground with his forehead behind Concubine De: "Believe it, get up." ”

"Thank you!" Xiao Zhengshi shouted thank you and then kowtowed again, and then slowly stood up.

"How's the third child?" The emperor asked Concubine De again.

"He's still the same, he understood a little more yesterday, he said a few words to his concubine, and he has been asleep today, and he can't even feed the decoction." As Concubine De spoke, tears rolled down her cheeks again.

The emperor sighed softly, raised his hand to wipe away the tears from her cheeks, and said, "I'll go see him." ”

"Your Majesty ......" Concubine De turned sideways and blocked in front of the emperor, bowing her head and weeping, but she didn't let go.

The emperor sighed helplessly and looked up at Xiao Zhengshi behind Concubine De, Xiao Zhengshi understood what the emperor meant, so he stepped forward and persuaded: "Although Zhang Tianshi's words must not be believed, but also cannot be fully believed. His Majesty is the father of King Rui, King Rui has been ill for a long time, how can Niangniang prevent father and son from seeing each other? The righteousness of the monarch and the minister is not mentioned for the time being, and the mother should also remember the relationship between father and son. ”

Concubine De choked softly and said in a low voice, "But Zilin is ...... I'm so sick that I'm afraid ......"

"Don't be afraid! With me here, you can rest assured! The emperor wiped away the tears on Concubine De's cheeks again and held her hand, laughed at himself, and pulled Concubine De to the house, "I'm not afraid to tell you, I went to Xichangjing to see Concubine Yue these days, Concubine Yue is also a tiger, and I haven't been washed away when I see me, the true dragon son, on the contrary, her body is almost better." I am the Son of Heaven, and wherever I go, I have to retreat from the devil. ”

"Your Majesty ......" Concubine De stopped talking, her eyes full of surprise.

The emperor glanced at her, smiled confidently, and had already walked to the door of Zhao Mu's bedroom.

The maids and palace maids in the house and the eunuchs brought by Concubine De knelt on the ground together, and Xiao Zhengshi took two steps forward to open the curtain for the emperor. A strong smell of medicine in the bedroom wafted out with the warm breeze, and the emperor saw the "son" lying on the bed with his eyes closed, his eyes tightened, and he sighed: "Why haven't I seen the third child for more than a month, and he has lost weight like this?!" ”

Concubine De glanced at the person who resembled her son on the bed, and her heart 'chuckled', as if she saw her son's tears falling like pearls with broken threads, and said while crying: "You can still enter a little porridge soup before the year, since the New Year, there are always ten hours of twelve hours a day that are sleepy, even if you wake up, you just feed a few mouthfuls of decoction into it, and then calculate these days, even the decoction has not been fed, but just pour a few mouthfuls of water to him." How can you not lose weight! ”

"Which Imperial Doctor gave King Rui a pulse?" The emperor turned his head and asked the person at the door.

Mama Song hurriedly replied: "It was Doctor Liu and Doctor Zhao before, just after the New Year, Doctor Liu Mu Xiu returned to his hometown, and Doctor Zhao's mother was sick and didn't come over for the past two days." ”

"Could it be that there is no imperial doctor to regulate King Rui's body in the past two days?!" The emperor was immediately furious.

Mama Song and the others immediately kowtowed and pleaded guilty, Concubine De sighed helplessly, and said: "As soon as the saying of the dragon and tiger clashing came out, everyone thought that Zilin was an ominous person, and sooner or later one day he would rush to His Majesty, and everyone would be too late to hide, who would be willing to come to the door?" ”

"Ridiculous!" The emperor was so angry that he turned around on the spot, looked up and saw Zhang Wanshou, and immediately scolded: "What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you call the Imperial Doctor to check King Rui's pulse? The prince of the dignified prince, when he is sick, he doesn't even have a doctor, which really makes everyone in the world laugh and lose his big teeth! ”

"Your Majesty is angry, the concubine has been staying here for the past two days, and she has already called the doctor to check her pulse in the morning, and the doctor said that the condition has not deteriorated, and your Majesty should not be anxious because of this matter." Concubine De was secretly worried that when the imperial doctor came to check the pulse of the person on the bed, she would leak the stuffing, so she tried her best to persuade the emperor not to be angry, and secretly glanced at Xiao Zhengshi.

Xiao Zhengshi was also secretly anxious, and when he saw Concubine De giving him a look, he hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Your Majesty rushed all the way from Jizhou, you must be tired, please sit down and drink tea first." ”

The emperor was angry in his heart, and when he heard Xiao Zhengshi say drinking tea, he suddenly felt that his throat was smoking, so he snorted and turned around to sit down on the chair, and looked at the sleeping "Zhao Mu" on the bed and continued to be angry.

Concubine De took the fragrant tea brought in by the maid and sent it to the emperor, and reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, be careful of scalding." ”

The emperor took the tea, blew the end of the tea and sucked half a mouthful, it was hot, but he was really thirsty, and this tea happened to be the cliff red he liked.

Taking advantage of the emperor's tea, Concubine De turned her head to look at Mama Song and Xiao Zhengshi, and wondered what excuse to persuade the emperor to leave, and she must not let the imperial doctor come to diagnose the pulse of "Zhao Mu" on the bed. Mama Song sent an affirmative look at the right time, as if she was not afraid of the imperial doctor coming to diagnose the pulse. Concubine De suddenly had doubts in her heart, and she didn't know what kind of medicine Mama Song was selling in this gourd.

However, regardless of whether Concubine De was in a hurry or not, Zhang Wanshou quickly found the imperial doctor.

After the imperial doctor entered the door, he asked the emperor Concubine De to say goodbye, then turned around and walked to the bed and knelt on the pedal to diagnose the pulse of "Zhao Mu", from his hand to Rong Zhao's wrist, Concubine De's heart suddenly mentioned her throat and eyes, but the education she received since childhood allowed her to practice the heart of Mount Tai collapsed before and did not change color, so the emperor did not see any clues.

The imperial doctor carefully examined his left hand and changed his right hand, and carefully touched it for a long time before he got up and came to the emperor, bowed and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Lord Rui's body is very weak, but fortunately there is no worry about his life, as long as he recuperates for a few days, he will definitely get better." ”

"What does it mean to be weak? What exactly is the disease?! The emperor asked angrily.

"It should be a cold wind, as well as depression, loss of appetite, etc., which are not serious diseases, but because I haven't eaten well for too long, I also hurt my spleen and stomach, and a small illness accumulates into a major illness, so the prince's body is so weak...... In short, as long as you take care of it, you will definitely get better. The imperial doctor was also very puzzled in his heart, obviously there was no serious illness, but the pulse was very weak, and the whole person was weak, I really didn't know how these people in the Rui Wangfu served the prince, he wanted to tell the truth, and he was afraid that someone would die because of this, so he had to pick up the nice words.

When Concubine De heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "It's okay, it's okay!" As he spoke, he turned around and reprimanded Mama Song, "It's all you people who don't serve well on weekdays!" It's useless to want to raise you, and you have to stay here and take care of it for a few days. ”

Mama Song hurriedly kowtowed and pleaded guilty, and the other people in the room also pleaded guilty in unison.

"You people deserve to die." The emperor pointed to Mama Song who was kneeling on the ground and said angrily.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhengshi hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "What Your Majesty said is that these minions deserve death if they can't serve the prince well, but even if it is a blessing for the prince in this New Year's month, keep their lives and serve them carefully, so as to see the after-effects." ”

Concubine De also wiped the corners of her eyes and persuaded from the side: "Your Majesty, don't be angry, fortunately, Zilin's illness will not be a big problem, and his body is weak, as long as he takes care of it, he will definitely get better." Speaking of which, this is also a catastrophe for him, and if he survives, he will definitely get better in the future. ”

"You! This heart is really wider than many men! If this were someone else, Fei would have beaten these dog minions to death. As he spoke, the emperor shook his head and held Concubine De's hand, pulled her to sit down beside him, and waved his hand to Mama Song and the others who were kneeling on the ground.

Xiao Zhengshi hurriedly ordered everyone: "Okay, you all go down!" ”

Mama Song and the others hurriedly kowtowed to thank them, and they all retreated. Xiao Zhengshi glanced at the hands held by the emperor and Concubine De, bowed down again and said, "Your Majesty is talking to Niangniang, and the minister is waiting outside." ”

The emperor waved his hand at Xiao Zhengshi, signaling him to be casual.

Xiao Zhengshi turned around and went out, and closed the door thoughtfully.

In addition to the sleeping "Zhao Mu" in the bedroom, there are only two people, the emperor and Concubine De, the emperor only sleeps as a son, so it is only a two-person world at this time, fortunately, he raised his hand and put Concubine De Lou into his arms, and sighed in a low voice: "Oh, there are so many people in this harem, only you are the most considerate." Your generosity, your virtue, there is no comparison. ”

Concubine De only pretended to be asleep when Rong Zhao was a little unable to let go for a while, no matter how dignified and demure she was, she did not have the habit of being close to men in front of outsiders, she laughed very embarrassed for a while, and raised her hand to take the emperor's arm off her shoulder, and reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty is making fun of the concubines again, and the concubines are all old." There are so many sisters in the harem, and it is better to pick any one than a concubine. ”

"Hehe......" The emperor had never seen Concubine De twisted like this, and he was in a good mood, because he held her hand, and said with a smile, "I didn't think that my Concubine De would also be jealous?" ”

"Majesty!" Concubine De glared at the emperor in disgust, and then turned her head to glance at "Zhao Mu" on the bed, crying and laughing for a while.

The emperor also glanced at the sleeping "son" on the bed, smiled and shook his head: "Oh, Zilin is twenty years old!" We're also old husbands and wives, you've never been so awkward before, but now you look like a little girl. ”

Concubine De thought to herself, what happened to the emperor today? I haven't seen him like this for so many years, so I was in a hurry and chuckled: "Your Majesty is making fun of the concubines again, and the concubines are all old women!" If you talk about the little girl, the sister of Concubine Yue in West Changjing is in her prime. ”

"Look! Say you're jealous and don't admit it, what's going on? Recruit yourself, right? The emperor smiled.

"Look at what the emperor said! There are queen mothers and virtuous concubines in the harem, and if you say that you are jealous, it will not be the turn of the concubines. Concubine De hid the words on the heads of the emperor and the virtuous concubine without a trace.

The emperor was really stunned when he heard this, and the smile on his face faded a little, but he also said lightly: "You are a clear-eyed person, you can understand some things if you don't say anything." ”

"The concubine doesn't dare to speculate on His Majesty's thoughts." Concubine De hurriedly said, "The concubine has been worried about Zilin's illness these days, and the concubine can't help if she has anything on her mind." However, the concubines felt that His Majesty was the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven blessed the world, and the so-called dragon and tiger were a little narrow-minded. Moreover, Concubine Yue's sister traveled all the way to Beijing from Xiliang, but because of such an inconsequential sentence, she was hung in Xichangjing, and she was afraid that she would not be able to afford to be sick if she was a concubine. ”

The emperor listened to Concubine De's words, and nodded helplessly: "What you said is true!" I am the Son of Heaven and the Lord of the World, and the woman I like and my son should be blessed by me! How could it be that they would get sick because of their clash with me, and they would invite disaster? So what has become of me? This hateful Zhang Tianshi! ”

"Your Majesty is angry. In fact, Zhang Tianshi is also kind-hearted, why should His Majesty be like him as a cultivator. Besides, this New Year, the ministers of the court and the people of the capital are celebrating the New Year happily, Your Majesty should not look for their bad luck, right? If you don't like that Heavenly Master dangling in front of you, wouldn't it be good to find some reason to send him out of the capital after the first month? Concubine De persuaded again.

------Off topic------

This emperor seems to have been written as a faint king!

Well, this old thing wasn't a good thing to talk about......

Dazhu was thinking about whether to give him a green hat to wear......

O(∩_∩)O hahaha~
