"It's almost July. The guest officer walked slowly—" The boatman finished speaking, and rowed away.

"Oh no, I'm afraid our plans to go to Xianyang will change." Luo Qi pinched his fingers and calculated, "The First Emperor fell ill in Pingyuanjin, insisted on touring the west, and was almost to the sand dunes." ”

"Dunes? It seems that King Zhao Wuling also died somewhere. Zhao Xianglan shouted.

"Well, yes." Luo Qi said, "King Zhao Wuling was trapped there by his son He back then, starved to death, and his reputation was ruined. ”

"Then we will divide into two ways, Xianglan and I will go to the sand dunes. Father-in-law Luo, you and Xiye go to Xianyang. Jiuxiong helped Zhao Xianglan onto the horse.

"There's no need for us to go to Xianyang." Nishino retorted.

"You have to go, once Hu Hai returns to Xianyang from the sand dunes and controls the capital, Fusu Gongzi will not be able to come back." Luo Qi knew very well that Zhao Gao had a bad intention.

"Grandpa Luo, we're going to the sand dunes, take care!" Jiuxiong looked determined to win, and hugged his fists on the horse.

"The Dune Palace is a place where dragons are trapped, and Emperor Qin has Hu Hai and Zhao Gao by his side, so you have to pay more attention. Remember! Grandpa Luo repeatedly advised.

"This king remembers, thank you father-in-law for reminding me. Leave! "The Nine Bears slapped their horses and went north.

Seeing the nine bears leave, Nishino was relieved for a long time: "I hope what I am worried about will not happen." The prince's scheming is inferior to Zhao Gao, but he is afraid that he will be bought by the eloquent Zhao Gao. ”

"The prince, he is jealous and hateful, and he will not be fooled." Grandpa Luo is very confident in Jiuxiong.

"Father-in-law Luo, don't go to Xianyang. Because Xianyang Ling Yan Le is Zhao Gao's son-in-law, we will be able to startle the snake if we go, which is not good for Fusu Gongzi. ”

"Well, this time I'll listen to Brother Xi." ……

Nine bears carried Zhao Xianglan, traveled day and night along the gallop road, changed more than a dozen stagecoaches in a row, and finally arrived at the Dune Palace. In the scorching summer, the sand sea is vast, the high temperature is unbearable, and the outside of the palace is heavily guarded. A flock of crooked crows flew around the palace, and the Qin army guarding it didn't care.

"Master Jun, I am General Zhao Tuo's special envoy, and I have important matters to meet the Holy One." Nine Bears went straight to the palace gate, wanting to hand the token to the guard.

"The holy dragon is not safe, and I will talk about it tomorrow." The guards set up their guns to stop the nine bears and prevent them from entering.

"Please also ask the military master to be accommodating, after tonight, a catastrophe will come." Nine Bears gave the horseshoe to the guards.

"Okay, you wait a minute. I'm going to report to the Holy One. "One of the guards trotted into the palace.

After a while, the guards ran out, panting and said, "The prime minister said that the saint has suffered from heat stroke, and all the ministers are gone." ”

"Master Jun, can you tell me about the Holy Lord's condition?"

"I didn't see it, and I heard the herald say that the saint had a strange disease, dizziness and vomiting."

"Then please trouble the military master to go again, and say that the divine doctor can cure the saint's disease."

"Okay." The guards staggered in again, and the order came out from the palace: "Summoned the divine doctor to meet you—"

Hearing this, Jiuxiong pulled Zhao Xianglan straight into the palace gate, passed through the six gates, and finally arrived at the outside of the dormitory: "Xiao Zizhang asks to see!" ”

Qin Shi Huang was lying on the sickbed, heard the sound of footsteps, and said in a weak voice: "Zhao Aiqing, go outside and take a look, has the divine doctor arrived?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhao Gao responded, and then walked out, he was surprised when he saw the jade pendant on Zhao Xianglan's waist.

"Are you Lan'er?" Zhao Gao almost cried when he saw his daughter standing slim in front of him.

"Yes, Dad. My daughter has found you. "Zhao Xianglan made a thousand blessings.

"Who is this?" Zhao Gao's two purring eyes looked at the nine bears.

"Dad, his name is Jiuxiong, my Langjun. The daughter came all the way and suffered many accidents, thanks to his rescue. ”

"How are you doing at home? How are you a mother? ”

"Dad, my mother, she's gone......" Zhao Xianglan cried.

"Good daughter, what's wrong?" Zhao Gao's fists were clenched, and there was a loud bang.

Zhao Xianglan still bowed her head and cried vigorously, only wiping her tears and not answering.

"My lord, it's like this...... Jiuxiong explained the ins and outs of Zhao Xianglan's pursuit and killing without concealment.

"Damn, kill my wife, burn my house, if I find out, I have to pick your skin."

"Your Majesty is angry. Now is not the time to settle scores. Nine Bears handed over the scorpion's waist card to Zhao Gao.

"Teacher, I can find you, what happened to my father?" Hu Hai rode over with a swagger.

Jiuxiong lowered his head, unable to look at this son-in-law, for fear that Hu Hai would find out.

"Your Highness, the Holy One is fine, I am looking for a divine doctor to treat Your Majesty." While Zhao Gao bent down to salute, he quickly hid the waist card in his sleeve, but fortunately Hu Hai didn't notice his small movements.

"I'm going to inspect it, and I'll come to visit my father later, there is Teacher Lao." Hu Hai took his minions and went somewhere else.

"Chief, take a box of horseshoe gold and give it to the divine doctor." Zhao Gao went up the steps and shouted into the hall.

"Yes, sir." A man in the hall responded.

Not long after, a eunuch walked out with a heavy Nanmu box and handed it to Zhao Gao. Zhao Gao on the steps took the box and opened it, revealing four pieces of golden horseshoe gold.

Jiuxiong's eyes lit up, and he thought: Oh, Zhao Gao's heart is not bad, he knows how to repay his kindness, this old boy treats me very well.

"Jiuxiong, follow me, and you will enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future." Zhao Gao appreciates this future son-in-law very much.

"Is that little one going to see the Holy One for healing now?" Jiuxiong took the box with both hands and handed it to Zhao Xianglan.

"Shhhh Let's take a break. ”

"Yes, father-in-law."

"Your kid has a very sweet mouth, and you're clever enough, I like it." Zhao Gao smiled and patted Jiuxiong's shoulder.

"Thank you for your mislove."

"From now on, you will be His Majesty's bodyguard, and you will obey me directly."

"Yes, father-in-law."

"Chief, you take Doctor Xiao to the imperial dining room and get them something delicious."

"Yes. My lord. The steward nodded.

"Thank you, father-in-law." Nine Bears was a little fluttery.

"Divine doctor, please come with me." ……

"Zhao Aiqing, has the divine doctor arrived?" The First Emperor in the dormitory asked in a daze.

"Your Majesty, the old minister asked them to go to dinner, and they will come over in a while." After Zhao Gao finished speaking, he entered the dormitory.

"Zhao Aiqing, what day is today?" Qin Shi Huang was already in a trance and couldn't remember the calendar clearly.

"On the day of Bingyin in July, Your Majesty has been in the palace for some time."

"Aiqing, I feel that the deadline is approaching, pass on my dictation and Gongzi Fusu: and the funeral will be buried in Xianyang......" The first emperor wanted to struggle to get up.

"Your Majesty, don't move, the true dragon son of heaven has a long life, take care of your illness, don't worry." Zhao Gao was writing the holy decree while comforting the First Emperor.

"How can it be longevity? Even if it is long lived, it will be difficult to escape life, old age, sickness and death, and eventually return to dust. The First Emperor struggled to say every word, his lips turned purple, his face was pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans came out of his cheeks.

"Your Majesty, the holy decree has been prepared, do you still want to look at it?" Zhao Gao held the written holy decree in front of the First Emperor with both hands.

The First Emperor originally wanted to verify the content of the holy decree in person, but he suddenly felt numb in his legs and feet, unable to move, his hands were stiff, and he tried to get up several times but failed, so he had to give up: "No need, I can trust you." I feel that my condition has worsened......"

"Physician—"

"That's it, the Imperial Doctors are all a bunch of waste. I want to sleep for a while......" The First Emperor fell into a deep sleep again.

The First Emperor had just fallen asleep, and Jiuxiong took Zhao Xianglan to the outside of the hall, constantly burping. Zhao Xianglan hated Jiuxiong's ignorance of the general situation the most, and punched him in the abdomen, and the hiccups stopped immediately.

Jiuxiong walked up the steps lightly and whispered at the door, "Father-in-law, can the son-in-law come in?" ”

Zhao Gao was a tailwinder, although the voice was very small, he still heard it, did not reply, raised his left hand and asked Jiuxiong not to shout again. Immediately, he jumped out of the hall like a "lucky cloud in the sky" like a wind.

"Virtuous son-in-law, how sure are you of curing the saint?" Zhao Gao asked.

"The son-in-law must meet the saint face to face, and he can only be sure after the consultation." Nine bears did not dare to slack off.

"Didn't you say you were a miracle doctor?" Zhao Gao was a little skeptical of Jiuxiong's medical skills.

"The divine doctor also needs to visit and smell the inquisitive."

"Where is the ancestral home?"

"Jingchu Wuling County, generations of Miao doctors, specializing in the treatment of incurable diseases."

"Then I'll be relieved."

"Son-in-law can go in now?"

"Prime Minister Zuo Li Sili and His Royal Highness have not arrived, no."

"Dad, aren't you in charge of this platform palace?" Zhao Xianglan said with a smile.

"Lan'er, nonsense. Daqin is the world of the Ying family, and his father is just a small CRRC government order. "Zhao Gao, the old fox, has always been cautious in his words and deeds.

"Father-in-law, what's the situation with the Holy One?"

"Your Majesty has just fallen asleep. I remember that Master Li Si will come after a while, don't call me father-in-law. Zhao Gao admonished.

"Yes, sir. The little one fell asleep while the saint was asleep, and how about entering the temple to see first? ”

"Go ahead. When Lees comes, I'll cough twice, and you have to come out right away. Zhao Gao was silent for a few seconds.

"Father-in-law Xie." After saying that, Jiuxiong carefully entered the first emperor's bedroom. He walked to the first emperor's sickbed with a long distance.

The light in the hall was dim, and Jiuxiong couldn't see the face of the first emperor clearly, so he had to take a few steps forward, but he didn't know that he knocked down the oil lamp, and he was about to fall to the ground on the lamppost.

Nine bears did a backflip and finally caught the lamppost, so dangerous! Breaking into the emperor's palace is to cut off the head. He helped the lamppost back to its place, took off the oil lamp, and carried it to the distance of the First Emperor, and finally saw the face of this mighty emperor through the ages.

The First Emperor was just over fifty, his hair was already gray, his lips were purple, his face was whiter than rice paper, his breath was short, and his rhythm was irregular.

"Oh no, the First Emperor is not an ordinary illness, in addition to black sha, there are also signs of poisoning. If you fall, who will control the Great Qin Empire? Nine Bears didn't dare to think about it anymore.

He also wanted to smell the smell of the First Emperor's legs, lifted the quilt to take a look, and suddenly Zhao Gao outside the hall coughed a few times, "Uh-huh, hmm-"
