On April 20, the 14th year of Dahuan Jingxi, the Nine Emperor Princes and his entourage finally arrived in the capital Jiankang, and Emperor Xiao immediately summoned the doctors of the Imperial Physician's Office to check on Xiao Mocheng's injuries.

It's just that the most prestigious Hua Tai Doctor of the Tai Yi Department has been diagnosing Xiao Mocheng in the Warm Pavilion for half an hour, so that the Nine Emperor Princes have fallen asleep, but Hua Tai Doctor still has no movement.

Outside the curtain, Emperor Xiao and Concubine Su, the biological mother of the Nine Emperor Sons, looked anxiously inside, already waiting a little impatiently, and Concubine Su was even more tearful.

Emperor Xiao gently wiped away the tears on Concubine Su's face, and gently stroked the white and elastic delicate skin with both hands, he looked at the beauty pear blossom crying with rain, and his heart was even more lovely, obviously he was forty years old, but he still loved to be petty and petty, Emperor Xiao straightened her scattered hair and shook her head helplessly.

Finally, Imperial Physician Hua lifted the curtain, sighed heavily, knelt down towards Emperor Xiao and Concubine Su, and said miserably: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, the old minister is incompetent, I'm afraid I won't be able to save the Nine Emperors..."

Emperor Xiao and Concubine Su were shocked: "What? What does it mean to be unsaved? You make it clear to me! Emperor Xiao's voice was already terrified, and Imperial Physician Hua's words were like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, so that Concubine Su almost fainted.

Imperial Physician Hua stood up and bowed, and calmly explained: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, the reason why the wounds of the Nine Emperor Princes have not healed is not because of the sword wound, but because of his ...... Poisoned ......."

"Poisoned?" Concubine Su grabbed Emperor Xiao's sleeve and sobbed,

"Exactly!"

"What poison?" Emperor Xiao asked sharply.

Imperial Physician Hua exhaled slightly, his eyes suddenly became a little distant, and he said slowly: "This poison is the poison of the rivers and lakes - the slightest bit of poisoning, the chest is tight and short of breath at the beginning of the poisoning, and the speech is weak, and His Royal Highness is at this stage now," Imperial Doctor Hua ignored the pale faces of Emperor Xiao and Concubine Su, and continued: "If you can't detoxify, you will be heartbroken and die of palpitations in the future." During the minister's walk in the rivers and lakes, he once saw people poisoned by this poison, and died violently after 7749 days. ”

Before the word "violent death" was finished, Concubine Su didn't stand firm and fainted.

"Love the concubine, love the concubine!" Emperor Xiao hugged the limp man in his arms, and was very angry. Imperial Physician Hua quickly went over to check Concubine Su's face and said, "Your Majesty, Niangniang is just too sad, and she will be fine after resting for a while." ”

Emperor Xiao instructed the maid to help her to rest, and he turned his head to examine the Hua Taiyi with a calm face.

"Hua Qing, is there really no way?" Emperor Xiao held his head with his hand and pressed the meridians on his head, his concubine fainted, his son was poisoned and dying, he was really a little physically and mentally exhausted at this moment, he turned his head and looked at Xiao Mocheng, who was sleeping in the curtain, how could he not believe that his favorite son would not be saved?

"Your Majesty, it's not like there's no way to ...... at all"

"Come on!" Without waiting for Imperial Doctor Hua to finish speaking, Emperor Xiao quickly answered.

"Yes", Hua Taiyi nodded in agreement, looked at the high candlestick in front of the window, and said: "There is a valley in the mountains at the junction of Dahuan Yiyang County and Dayan Runan County, called Plum Blossom Valley, the valley owner's surname is Jiang, Plum Blossom Valley is good at planting medicine, medicine, and better medical science, and what is more valuable is that the old valley owner has a little daughter, this woman has the true inheritance of the valley owner, seven years ago she walked out of the valley to walk the rivers and lakes, save the life and help the wounded, practice medicine cloth is good at the world, the people have always called her ' 'Doctor with no hands', I heard that this woman is especially good at detoxification, but her whereabouts have been uncertain for many years, if she can be found, the Nine Emperor Princes may be able to save ......" Hua Taiyi stroked his white beard and said meaningfully.

Emperor Xiao looked at the Nine Emperor Princes who were breathing evenly on the couch, and said in a firm tone: "Okay, as long as there is such a person in the world, I will find her even if I look for a needle in a haystack." ”

"Hua Aiqing, do you know what the woman's name is?" Emperor Xiao turned his head to look at Imperial Doctor Hua,

"Jiang Mei." Doctor Hua gently spit out two words, and there was a trace of imperceptible sadness in his expression.

After Doctor Hua said this, Emperor Xiao did not hesitate to leave Xiao Mocheng's bedroom, and ordered people to send orders to various states and counties overnight to find a woman named "Jiang Mei", and the news of Xiao Mocheng's death soon spread throughout the capital overnight.

So in the next few days, the palace gate of the Chengming Hall was about to be broken, and all kinds of people came to visit.

At this time, in the Chengming Hall of Jiankang Palace, a man in a white shirt with a long body and a jade body stood in a mess, a few traces of astonishment flashed in his warm eyes, he glanced at the attendant who bowed in front of him to ask for peace, and asked gently: "Ming Huan, what's wrong with your master?" ”

The chamberlain who called Minghuan smiled bitterly and explained: "Shizi, just now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Sixth Highness came down to visit our master, and the master somehow fell to the ground as soon as he heard that they were coming......

The man in the white shirt frowned, but after a moment, he couldn't help laughing, so he walked inside while laughing.

I'm still in the mood to act, it seems that I'm in good shape! He said silently in his heart.

This man in white shirt is none other than Mu Xiaohe, the prince of Dahuan Jingnan, who was scared into a cold sweat after hearing that Xiao Mocheng had been hit by the slightest button, and he couldn't sleep and eat these days.

It wasn't until he heard that there was a peerless medical woman in the folk who could cure the poison of "the slightest thing", that he was a little relieved, but he waited for a few days, but still did not see any news of the medical woman, so today he decided to visit the seriously injured Nine Emperor Princes.

Mu Xiaohe walked through the hall and stepped into the warm pavilion inside, at this time, the warm pavilion was already brightly lit, after he crossed an eight-open screen, he saw a man in a shirt leaning on the side of the desk, looking down at something, that casual posture really made it hard to believe that he was dying soon......

Mu Xiaohe walked over slowly, and without saying hello, he sat down directly, and after a maid stepped forward to help the two of them pour tea, they also quietly retreated....

"What are you looking at?" Mu Xiaohe sat across from him and looked at him.

The Nine Emperor Princes still didn't look up, he pursed his lips, stared at the scroll under him with interest, and just replied: "I'm looking at the piano score given to me by the Wanqing girl in the Wanqing Building!" His Royal Highness hasn't been to the platform to listen to music for a long time, and I don't know if the Huaying girl in Zhengle Terrace is thinking about His Royal Highness..."

Mu Xiaohe sneered, shook his head and said, "You still have such leisure?" ”

"Death is coming, what can you think about if you don't think about beauty?" Xiao Mocheng casually closed the score, put one hand on his knee, even if his face was pale, it did not reduce his handsome and chic demeanor, he raised his bright eyes, looked at Mu Xiaohe, and said unwillingly: "You are more blessed than me, I congratulated Taifu on his birthday, and was stabbed with a sword, you went to pay homage, but you got a good family business, it really makes His Royal Highness jealous!" "The dark eyes are smiling like peach blossoms....

Mu Xiaohe was so embarrassed to come by him, although he had lived in Ningzhou for a long time, he had been taught by Mrs. Pei when he was a child,

When Pei Yan saw Mu Xiao and thousands of miles from Ningzhou coming to the banquet, he was very excited, although he knew that Mu Xiao and there was still an old thing in his heart, he was not jealous, but married his granddaughter Pei Lanying to him, which can be regarded as the only consolation at the birthday banquet...

"However, you haven't married for so many years, and this time you gladly accepted it, which is a very good thing!" Xiao Mocheng took a sip of wine and said sincerely,

When Mu Xiaohe heard this, his face froze, and he couldn't help but think of some of the past in his heart, but his face instantly returned to normal, but he smiled lightly: "It's all injured like this, you look like nothing!" ”

"What else would you do? Do you sigh until you die with palpitations? Xiao Mocheng's voice gradually became colder,

He held a small wooden stick and flicked the candle flame on the desk, he slowly raised his head, his bright black eyes looked at the candle flame in a daze, and his handsome face was a little more solemn than usual.

Mu Xiaohe saw that his face was expressionless, his face was a little frighteningly pale, and he couldn't help but feel distressed...

"I've grown so big, I've never been so weak as I am today, I don't know where the murderer came from, I don't know what the other party's purpose is, and more importantly, I recently feel that there is a stagnation of air flow in my body, and the wound has not been scarred for a long time, which makes me unable to move." Xiao Mocheng's eyes looked at the flames in a daze, and his voice was tired.

Mu Xiaohe was slightly ashamed, and at this moment he realized that Xiao Mocheng had hidden the pain in his body and the depression in his heart very deeply, making everyone ignore the reality that he was seriously injured.

"That assassin's martial arts are extremely high, so many martial arts masters can't help him!" Mu Xiao and his warm face lifted up a solemn face,

Xiao Mocheng dragged his head back with both hands, although the wound was astringent and painful, but this pain made him more sober.

"This opponent is too powerful, such a top master, such an arrogant and careful layout, I really can't think of anyone in the DPRK who has such ability?" Mo Cheng looked at the top of the pavilion and was puzzled.

Mu Xiaohe snorted coldly, looked at him and said, "Who else can there be?" Now that you are deeply favored by the emperor, some people can't stand it! But then again, he's a little too bold! ”

Xiao Mocheng gradually sat up when he heard this, his hands were on the desk, and he approached Mu Xiaohe and said: "The sixth brother's father-in-law, Yuan Kai, sits in Jingzhou and has the advantage of overlooking Jiankang's upstream, and his mother's Zhang family occupies Wu Xing's wealth, he has the military power of the Yuan family to rely on, and the wealth and power of the Zhang family to rely on, where do you need to be afraid of whom?" ”

"That's right, presumably His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been restrained by him a lot over the years!" Mu Xiaohe nodded and sighed,

"The fifth brother is benevolent by nature, not good at scheming, he is not the opponent of the sixth brother at all!" Xiao Mocheng took a sip of wine and said,

Xiao Mocheng thought about it, but he couldn't help but feel worried, now Dahuan is in power by the Yuan, Pei, Su, Xie, and Zhang five major scholars, the Yuan family's military power is dominant, Su, Zhang, and Xie are not only divided into the power of the center, but also control the wealth of the five southeastern counties, Pei Yan's nephew Pei Yun is in charge of the center, and there is Yuzhou Thorn History as a strong aid, and furthermore, Pei Yansheng controls Xiakou in the three towns of Jingzhou, and he has inserted a knife in Yuan's heart, so the strength of the five families is very strong.

Now the Yuan family and the Zhang family support the sixth brother Xiao Moxuan, Pei Yun's daughter marries the prince as a concubine, which is naturally the backing of the prince, Xiao Mocheng's mother is from the Su family, and the Su family is his backer, but the Xie family is free from the elites of various families, and there is no obvious action.

At present, the sixth brother Xiao Mo is aggressive, strong, and has the potential to win the heir, so he is the strongest opponent. Xiao Mocheng thought about it for a while, and already had a rough idea in his heart.

"I'm confused, I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Sixth have come to visit you, but His Royal Highness the Sixth has even sent the life-saving Tianshan Snow Lotus, which shows that he is trying his best to ease the relationship with you and want to get rid of the suspicion of the mastermind behind it?" Mu Xiaohe was puzzled,

Xiao Mocheng sneered and said, "Whether it's him or not, it looks like he's him now..."

"That's what I said...."Suddenly, Mu Xiaohe raised his eyebrows and looked over with a smile, and said: "Putting aside your injuries, the current situation is not exactly what you want, if the previous battle for the throne was still surging, now it has surfaced, you were just a dashing prince before, but now you have been pulled into this game, presumably your father and emperor have to protect you." ”

Mu Xiao and holding the bamboo flute in his hand, gently tapped the sandalwood table, "Don't sue me, you have no interest in that seat?" Mu Xiaohe looked at him with a chuckle, with a look of affirmation in his eyes,

Xiao Mocheng didn't answer him, he straightened up, held his chin and stared at him and said, "Then let me ask you, why haven't you entered Beijing for fourteen years?" ”
