Chapter 614: Hu Qingyan
Hu Qingyan came and was carried over by the two on a stretcher.
After arriving at the middle palace, he still insisted on standing up, and with the support of two guards, he walked into the main hall tremblingly, and saluted the queen mother and the king of Ming who were sitting in the main hall.
Seeing that he was seriously ill, the Queen Mother couldn't help but care for a few words, but when she saw Mo Bai sitting on the side, she never said a word, so she said that the time for the first emperor to pray for blessings had come, and she got up and retreated to the back hall.
As soon as the Queen Mother left, Mo Bai waved at the two guards standing at the door.
The two hesitated, but they still couldn't resist the majesty of Mo Bai, and retreated.
Seeing the two guards retreat, Mo Bai got up, came to the center of the hall and stood still, and asked with a negative hand, "I wonder if the elder has been better after these few days of recuperation?" ”
"Thanks to His Royal Highness's help, the old minister was able to save his life, and I have been wanting to come to thank His Highness for the past few days, but I can't get out of bed, it's really rude." Hu Qingyan stood up with a chair and slowly bowed to Mo Bai tremblingly.
Mo Bai smiled and only said: "It is the duty of a doctor to save people, and there is no need for the elder to do this." ”
Hu Qingyan bowed and waited for a long time, but he didn't see Mo Bai to help him up, so he had to stand up trembling again, and looked up at Mo Bai: "I don't know that His Highness is calling today, but I have something to order." ”
Mo Bai waved his hand: "It's nothing, the old man's illness was taken over by the king, I heard that the old man has been for several days, but there is no improvement at all, the face of the king is also quite embarrassed, in the medical way, the king thinks that he still has some ability, he started to treat himself, and he has not missed once, so he had to ask the old man to come over, and then take a look, what is the situation?" ”
When Hu Qingyan heard this, a pair of old eyes and Mo Bai looked at each other slightly, then naturally drooped down, and said politely: "Your Royal Highness's medical skills are naturally unparalleled in the world." If it weren't for His Royal Highness's action, the old minister would have died a long time ago, but now he is just getting older, and his recovery is slower, and he is still worried about His Royal Highness, which really makes the old minister ashamed. ”
"It's okay, medicine is the art of the living, you should be careful and cautious, the old man is not cured, this king will give you a pulse prescription, how about it?" Mo Bai looked at Hu Qingyan with a smile.
When Hu Qingyan heard this, after pondering for a while, he arched his hand and said, "Then there is His Royal Highness Lao." ”
"You may be seated!" Mo Bai stretched out his hand and gestured.
Hu Qingyan sat down as he said, Mo Bai also sat down, set up the pulse diagnosis that had been prepared on the table, and began to take the pulse for Hu Qingyan.
Hu Qingyan's eyes glanced at Mo Bai, and saw that his eyes were half-squinted, as if they were open and closed, as if he was really checking his pulse.
But Hu Qingyan's heart is like a mirror, what is the purpose of Mo Bai letting him come to see.
To be honest, if it weren't for King Ming, no one would have thought of dragging him from the hospital bed easily, let alone threatening him with this domineering way of "half-pillar incense time".
Today, he is in power, and there may be many people in the world who want to move him, but there are absolutely few people who dare to move him.
Even in the face of His Majesty, he has the confidence to protect himself.
Only in the face of King Ming, he has some bottom in his heart, this person is really a bit of an anomaly, and Hu Qingyan has found it difficult to see him through so far.
This person is also righteous and evil, although he is not a reckless man, many things can not be seen at the time, but afterwards it can always be found that King Ming is not indiscriminate, everything he does, seems impulsive, but always has his own purpose to achieve.
But it is the ultimate goal of King Ming, which is often unexpected and confusing.
Generally speaking, anyone who does something, no matter how cloudy it is, must eventually have a position.
For example, Your Majesty, whether it is to take Zhang Bangli, or to compromise with the Southern Army to take the six cities, and to invite him to go out of the mountains to suppress the chaos in the court, it is all in order to be able to ascend the throne smoothly.
For example, the warlords of Nanyue, whether the Lin clan is trying to sow discord or playing tricks, in the end, it is to take the six cities.
Another example is Hu Qingyan himself, after being poisoned this time, he picked his pick, in order to reflect his importance, in order to warn some people not to make mistakes again.
Everyone does things for the sake of their own profit.
Hu Qingyan has been up and down in power all his life, he has seen too many fights and struggles, the more high-level things are, the less likely there will be pointless fights, all actions are behind the scenes for their own position, profit expectations.
But the Ming Wangfu is an outlier.
Hu Qingyan has been observing the Ming Wangfu for a long time, and many times the Ming Wangfu does things that make it really difficult for him to understand.
For example, this time the Ming Wangfu led the Daomen to fight the southern army, and he could see at a glance that the purpose of the Ming Wangfu was to help the dynasty contain the warlords.
But he clearly saw with his own eyes that King Ming offended His Majesty completely on the day of the arrival of the head of the two mountains and four sects, and he almost turned his face on the spot.
In such a situation, he actually turned his head and went to help the country to fight with the Lin family.
And it's not a feint, it's a real fight!
In the battle under Rongcheng, the early men and horses of the Ming Wangfu were almost wiped out, this is a real determination to take human lives, and no one dares to question it.
Hu Qingyan wanted to break his head, but he couldn't understand what position King Ming was?
On the one hand, he offended His Majesty, knowing that His Majesty wanted to get rid of him quickly, not only did he not save his strength and guard against the future, but he risked his life to help His Majesty solve problems.
What does this make Hu Qingyan say?
How can he judge the position of the Ming Palace?
The only possibility can only show that Wang Nai does not care about personal gains and losses, and is dedicated to the country, so he does not hesitate to throw his head and spill his blood.
Well, if that's the case, then there's a position for it.
As long as he really cares about the dynasty, then he can use the safety of the dynasty to coerce and even use King Ming.
But in the next moment.
With His Majesty's intervention between Daomen and the Lin family, the Ming Wangfu, which was supposed to fight to the death with the Southern Army, suddenly withdrew......
Evacuate cleanly!
Until today, so many things have happened in the dynasty, and even the city has been seized, but the Ming Palace's mansion has not moved.
They really left the country alone!
How does this make Hu Qingyan understand?
Do you still have a position in the Ming Palace, and can you do something that conforms to common sense?
Could it be that when you do things in the Ming Palace, you really look at your mood, and if you are unhappy, you will fight a beating, and it doesn't matter if you have suffered heavy casualties but you don't get anything?
For such a person, Hu Qingyan is really a headache.
Just like now, King Ming invited him over, and his reason told him that King Ming should let him go out of the mountain to suppress the chaos in the court.
If analyzed for this purpose, King Ming naturally did not dare to disadvantage him.
But after so many things above, Hu Qingyan has no bottom in his heart at all, no one can say for sure, whether King Ming will turn his face directly in the next moment, and even kill him on the spot.
Regarding whether King Ming has the courage to do so, Hu Qingyan does not dare to doubt it at all.
A person who dared to do something in the palace in the Dingwu era and cut off his uncle's head, what else did he dare not do, and who he did not dare to kill?
Therefore, after thinking about it, he still came within half a pillar of incense, and he didn't dare to delay for a moment.
People are like that, as long as you give him a reason to be afraid of you.
Many times, they are able to hold back their breath and think about not being impulsive and looking at the situation before speaking.
Hu Qingyan is like this now, he doesn't dare to gamble with his life on whether a moody person will not dare to kill him.
Mo Bai has also become an existence that he rarely dares to grasp easily in this world after Dingwu left.
Of course, when he reaches his position, it is impossible to completely let Mo Bai be under Mo Bai's domination because he has scruples about him.
If so, he might as well be an ordinary person, what's the point of being in this high position?
Even if Mo Bai came forward and wanted him to go out of the mountain, he had to give him a reason to go out of the mountain, and someone had to pay the price for his poisoning this time.
Otherwise, how will he protect himself in the future, it will be a miserable end, why should he be soft on Mo Bai?
Hu Qingyan's eyes flashed with Dao thoughts, and his face calmed down.
After a long time, Mo Bai let go of his hand, slowly opened his eyes, and looked at Hu Qingyan.
Hu Qingyan looked at him calmly, and neither of them spoke.
After a while, Mo Bai suddenly smiled and nodded: "This poison is indeed a bit ferocious, no wonder Elder Ge is so difficult to heal." ”
Hearing this, Hu Qingyan's heart was pressed on the big stone, and he suddenly relaxed a lot, it seems that King Ming has no intention of turning his face with him, so he shouldn't have to be too nervous with King Ming on his trip today.
Hu Qingyan sighed: "I'm not afraid of His Royal Highness's jokes, the old minister didn't have a few years to live, and he shouldn't be afraid of death, but after this experience, he was almost poisoned silently, and he always had nightmares for a few days, but whenever someone approached, his heart was beating straight, and he was afraid that he would be ......plotted again."
"There is a great terror between life and death, that is, cultivators like us, how can we not be greedy for life and fear of death, only to practice hard every day, and do not dare to slack off, the elder does not need to be ashamed of this, this is human nature!" Mo Bai put away his pulse and shook his head slightly.
But when it came to this, Mo Bai suddenly changed his words: "But although life and death are terrifying, there are always times when we have to face life and death, such as the sergeant I am fighting with the banner barbarians on the battlefield, which one is not afraid of death?" But he still has to face the sword and sword shadow with his flesh and blood, why, it's just responsibility! ”
"Your Highness is taught!" Hu Qingyan bowed his head slightly, making a sense of shame.
Mo Bai smiled, and didn't expect to use any big reason to make this old thing who had struggled in the court all his life wake up, stood up, and turned his back to Hu Qingyan again: "I have seen the situation of the elder of the pavilion, and I will open another party later, and the elder of the pavilion should be fine." ”
"Oh?" Hu Qingyan's eyes narrowed slightly, and at this time, he was no longer cloudy, and his voice was slightly cautious: "I don't know what your Highness has to do?" ”
Mo Bai turned his back to him and squinted his eyes as well: "Elder Ge's illness is only curing a little slower, but it still has to be cured, isn't it?" ”
Hu Qing was silent, but he secretly said in his heart, "Of course, how can the old man really watch the country be dragged down, but although he still has to stand up after all, but this poisoning must have an explanation, otherwise, some people will dare to attack the old man at any time." ”
