Hanyuan Hall is the oldest one among the four side halls on the left and right in the Great Zhao Imperial City. This palace was built in the period of Zhao Taizong to Ping, four and a half rooms wide, two and a half rooms deep, the bucket arch is grand, the eaves are far-reaching, the shape is both beautiful and magnificent, it not only retains the grand spirit of the strict style of the Tang Dynasty building, but also carries the simple style of Zhao-style architecture without pretension and practicality. It is especially worth mentioning that in this side hall, whether it is the wood used to make columns or beams or the bucket arch frame, or the stone laid on the ground, it is not painted with bright pigments after processing, but basically maintains the simple and bright simple tone of the material; These undoubtedly make the already quiet and deep palace more and more generous and solemn. There is no doubt that if this palace, which combines the architectural characteristics of the Tang and Zhao dynasties, can withstand the passage of time and continue to be handed down, then, in an era of highly developed science and technology, it will definitely become a bright pearl in the history of human architecture, and people will use countless words to record it, praise it and praise it......

However, it is a pity that Shangcheng is not engaged in architecture. He also has no basic knowledge of architectural history, so he can't see the mystery of this side hall at all. When he walked into this palace, he didn't even have a word of emotion or admiration.

Now, he is sitting in the Hanyuan Palace, patiently waiting for Emperor Dongyuan to receive him.

He had been sitting for a long time, but the emperor still hadn't come out.

There was also an earth dragon burning in the palace, but the temperature in the hall was not very high, and he could hardly smell the charcoal fire, so he didn't feel that time was hard to sit here. Incense burns in the two clumsy incense burners in front of the throne, and green smoke curls up from between the cages, rising higher and higher, and then slowly disappearing. The faint scent of flowers fills the air, just as refreshing as the tranquil scent of grassy hillsides in spring when wildflowers are in full bloom. On the side of the screen behind the throne, the four pink-clad ladies of the inner court on the left and right stood silently like stone men. The four little yellow doors, dressed in ochre-colored robes, slumped their waists, bowed their heads, and hid in the shadows of the wooden pillars without a sound. The hall was so quiet that it seemed as if he were alone. He could almost hear his breathing and his heartbeat.

He lowered his gaze from the inner plaque above the throne and carefully identified the seal script written on the screen.

This is a big seal, the strokes are inherently complicated, plus thousands of years of vicissitudes, he knows less than two or three out of ten of the dozens of words he can see, so he quickly gave up this headache. However, these words are really beautifully written, the form and bones are full of vigor and spirit, the wind and bones are rugged and simple and majestic, and the sharp and hidden gestures are subtle and subtle...... Unfortunately, the final inscription and seal were blocked by the Imperial Throne Case, and he had no way of knowing which calligrapher it was.

When he was copying the seal characters on the corner of his robe, he caught a glimpse of the eleventh father-in-law quietly coming around the pillar.

The Eleventh Father-in-law walked very fast with small steps, and when he approached, he whispered to him, "The Holy Monarch will come here when he is young." ”

The Emperor is coming?

Although he had been waiting for this time for a long time, and had imagined all kinds of situations when he saw the emperor, but at this moment, when he heard the words of the eleventh duke, he still couldn't restrain his nervousness and excitement. This is the emperor of the Great Zhao Dynasty, the leader of a country, the father of Chen Pu, and the father of the unpopular princess Nanyang and the good-tempered prince...... What a mess of thoughts! He immediately realized that he was so excited, so his mind was a little overwhelmed!

He tried to restrain himself, smiled and nodded at the eleventh father-in-law, and asked in a low voice, "Father-in-law, I want to ask you about something." Seeing that the eleventh father-in-law didn't look like he wanted to refuse, he said again, "The prince's health, isn't it not good?" "He'll have to find something to distract himself, or he'll be in a big deal.

The eleventh father-in-law's face, which was always smiling, froze suddenly. He lifted his eyelids and glanced at Shang Cheng quickly.

The eleventh father-in-law's vigilant look and meaningful eyes made Shang Cheng stunned. Only then did he realize that he was asking too casually, and the questions he asked were too sensitive, and the physical condition of the prince was something that could be inquired about casually? If this word spreads, what will others think, and what will the Emperor of the Eastern Yuan Dynasty think, they will definitely think that they want to interfere in the emperor's family affairs! The general of the border town, who didn't even sit on the hot ass, dared to ask these things, this is okay?!

This will not work! Don't let others misunderstand! He hurriedly explained: "Father-in-law, you also saw the situation outside the palace just now, I saw that the prince always took a handkerchief and sweated, could it be...... Could it be ......?" he said. Now, he felt like he was about to sweat. It took him a long time before he found a proper explanation. "This, could it be that the prince is not in good health today?" After speaking, he stared at the eleventh father-in-law without blinking.

The eleventh father-in-law did not speak for a long time.

Just when Shang Cheng almost thought that the matter had reached the point of no return, the eleventh father-in-law finally spoke up.

"The prince's health has always been very good......"

Shang Cheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that the eleventh father-in-law is determined to hide this matter for him. It seems that this father-in-law is really a good person, not the kind of dead eunuch who appears in literary and artistic works with the same love to play with right and wrong!

But the eleventh father-in-law's words were not finished.

“…… It's just that in recent years, the bones of the body seem to be a little ......" The words of the eleventh father-in-law are the same as he just now. It seems that both of them are in the same situation, and they don't know how to describe the prince's health.

"A little weak?" Shang Cheng whispered for him to finish speaking. This is actually what he wants to say, if the prince is not sick, it would be too abnormal to sweat all the time in such a cold weather. He immediately thought, could this be that the prince's wine was too lustful and his body was weakened? But he didn't put the question straight away, but looked at the Eleventh Father-in-law with inquiring eyes, hoping to get an answer from him.

The eleventh father-in-law knew what Shang Cheng wanted to know. He didn't speak, just shook his head slightly, and said after a while: "The prince was not like this before. Xiaguan had been working in the prince's mansion before the seventeenth year of the Eastern Era, and the prince had a good temper at that time, and his body was also ......" He swallowed his saliva, hesitated for a long time, and still said a big rebellious sentence. “…… At that time, the prince's body was also very strong. But I don't know why, in the past two or three years, in two or three years...... The crown prince is not only ...... And the temperament is also ......"

His words were intermittent and indistinct, but Shang Cheng heard them clearly. The prince used to be much stronger, and he didn't have the same perverse personality as he does now? That's weird! You must know that a person's emotions always fluctuate with the ups and downs of their physical condition; Since the prince's personality has changed significantly, there must be something wrong with the parts of his body! What could be the problem?

But he was not a doctor, and he couldn't figure out what was going on with the prince's body, so he could only sigh and sigh with the eleventh father-in-law, and comfort the kind-hearted servant with some empty words. At the end, he made a suggestion: since the prince's health may not be very good, why not find some doctors to diagnose him?

This is actually the same as not saying it. The eleventh father-in-law glanced at the fake governor of Yanshan, whom he had always respected, with a look like an idiot. Is it true that there are dozens of imperial doctors in the Tai Hospital, and if the prince really has any serious illness, can they still not see it?

Shang Chengzheng wanted to explain to his father-in-law that some problems were not caused by diet and living habits. Even some vegetables cannot be mixed and eaten, not to mention that there are heavy metals and radioactive materials in the world, and the harm caused by these two things is even more serious, so serious that it is impossible to diagnose it with existing medical methods!

At this time, three silent whips suddenly sounded outside the hall:

One by one! Smack!

He immediately realized that the emperor was coming!

He immediately left the seat, took two steps back towards the throne, stretched out his hand to straighten the sable pocket of the flying wing, and sorted out the crimson four-grade general Rong Chang on his body, and checked the golden nail belt, hanging charm, and peiyu in turn, and felt that there was no omission, and his waist was upright, and he stood solemnly in the hall like a soldier who was about to be reviewed......
