After Chu Ci said that he was ill, the imperial concubine quickly fell silent, but there were people waiting for Cining Palace every day, waiting for Chu Ci to recover from the cold and enter the palace to see the Empress Dowager Ren.
Chu Ci estimated the time, it should be the time when she returned to Beijing to see the Queen Mother for the first time, and the root of the disease in her body began to appear.
On the seventh day, when Jing Ming personally brought Li Zhong to the door, she knew that she could no longer shirk it, so she packed up the medicine box and went to the palace with Zhejin and Zhexia.
In the dormitory of Cining Palace, the imperial doctor kneeling on the ground.
Nearby were Aunt Ju Rui and the imperial concubine.
The two watched Emperor Jingming accompany Chu Ci in, got up at the same time, and called "Princess Shizi".
Chu Ci returned the salute to the imperial concubine, and then walked straight to the queen mother's bedside, and after sitting down on the pestle, he pinched the queen mother's pulse.
She examined for a quarter of an hour, then raised her head, looked at Ju Rui and asked, "How long has the Queen Mother been like this?" ”
Aunt Ju Rui was busy and said, "If you go back to the princess, it has been eight or nine days, at the beginning, please ask Doctor Liang to administer the needle, and you can wake up for a few hours, but in the past two days, it has no effect at all, no matter what method Doctor Liang is using, Niangniang just can't wake up...... Other doctors can't help it. ”
"I see." Chu Ci nodded.
Although Emperor Jingming hated Empress Dowager Ren for only caring about the Ren family and ignoring him, at this moment of life and death, he couldn't help but redden, looked at Chu Ci and said, "Princess Shizi, do you have a way to make the queen mother wake up?" ”
Chu Ci got up, first respectfully saluted Emperor Jingming, and then said, "Yes!" ”
"Then please ask the princess to treat the queen mother quickly!" Emperor Jing Ming hurriedly said.
Chu Ci listened to his urging. glanced at him deeply, "Your Majesty, my words are not finished yet." ”
"Not finished?" Emperor Jingming was stunned.
He thought that Chu Ci was asking the lion to open his mouth wide and ask for any benefits, so he hurriedly flicked his sleeves and said, "You first diagnose and treat the queen mother, what are the conditions, wait for the queen mother to wake up." ”
The corners of Chu Ci's eyes trembled slightly, then lowered his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, I don't want to mention any conditions, I just want to tell the emperor." Even if the Queen Mother wakes up, she is like an old man who has suffered a stroke...... Speech impaired, mobility impaired. ”
"Y-What do you say!" Emperor Jingming was shocked, he raised his hand to Chu Ci and asked in disbelief, "You tell me again, what will happen to the queen mother when she wakes up?" ”
"......" Chu Ci had no choice but to repeat as he instructed, "If you go back to the emperor, I mean - even if the queen mother wakes up, she will be like an old man who has suffered a stroke, with inconvenient speech and mobility." ”
"How so!" Emperor Jingming listened to her. His face suddenly turned pale, and he stared at her and asked, "How could the queen mother become like this!" Isn't it you...... Did you hold a grudge against the queen mother and deliberately say that?! ”
Chu Ci shook his head lightly, paused, and said, "If the emperor doesn't believe me, then you can also let the imperial doctor come to diagnose and treat the queen mother!" As she spoke, she looked at Doctor Liang, who was kneeling on the ground and headed by her.
Doctor Liang was busy saying, "Your Majesty, the ministers are incompetent, if you let the ministers and others come to govern, maybe it is not as good as the princess of the Nanjun Palace!" ”
"You, you ......" Emperor Jingming listened to Liang Yizheng's words, completely angry and panicked!
He himself is a straw bag, for so many years, thanks to the Queen Mother, he can sit on the throne, and he has lived up and down for so many years.
Now, he doesn't dare to imagine what he will do in the future without the Queen Mother!
Not to mention the regent Meng Jing, even the ministers of the two factions in the court, led by the Zhenguo Gong and the Chengen Marquis Mansion, he has packed up the troubles!
Dowager...... The Queen Mother, he can't be fine!
Thinking like this, his eyes turned scarlet, glared at Chu Ci, and glared at those imperial doctors, "I don't care what the cause of the Queen Mother is, how serious her illness is, I order you that you must heal the Queen Mother, and make her exactly the same as before!" If you can't do it, you, you...... Don't even think about leaving Cining Palace! ”
Chu Ci has been paying attention to Emperor Jingming, how can he not see his thoughts of a hundred turns.
She hooked the corners of her lips coldly, looked at him indifferently and said, "How the emperor treats the imperial doctor is the emperor's business." But the courtier, the emperor is only afraid that he has no right to imprison...... The courtiers are not royal slaves, but the princesses of the three media and six hires of the Nanjun Palace, and the Ming media is marrying back! Regardless of whether the queen mother is cured well or not, the courtiers must return to the house before dark. ”
"You!" Emperor Jingming didn't expect Chu Ci to dare to refute him, and his face suddenly became even darker.
Seeing this, the imperial concubine standing on the side turned her mind around, and hurriedly stepped forward with her skirt and said, "The emperor is angry!" Although the princess's words were a little blunt, she was not wrong in the end, she was neither a doctor in a hospital, nor a doctor in the rivers and lakes who was ordered to enter the palace, she was just a nobleman in Beijing...... If the emperor really disposed of the princess of the Nanjun Royal Mansion because of the affairs of the Queen Mother, then let the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and those relatives think? ”
Emperor Jingming listened to the gentle and gentle persuasion of the imperial concubine, and the anger in his heart decreased slightly.
also reacted that his attitude towards Chu Ci just now was a little blunt.
However, as the king of a country, it is not his style to be soft, and in the end, he only explained to Chu Ci that the words just now were said to the imperial doctor, not to her.
Chu Ci went to the palace to confirm whether the root of the disease he had buried before had any attacks.
Now that you have the result, you naturally don't mean to stay for a long time.
She bowed slightly to Emperor Jingming, and said lightly, "The courtiers have already said what they should say, and they can't help at the moment, so they will retire first, if the emperor changes his mind later, let Liang Yizheng come to the Chu Mansion in the east of the city to find the courtiers!" After speaking, she didn't wait for Emperor Jingming to agree, and retreated directly.
Emperor Jingming watched her leave generously, angry and itchy. But but, thinking of her identity, he didn't dare to stop her, so he could only watch her leave.
"Your Majesty, why don't you go out and send off the princess, and then persuade her, see if you can think of other ways to save the queen mother?" The imperial concubine silently approached Emperor Jingming and whispered in his ear.
Emperor Jingming glanced back at her, and after a moment, nodded slightly, "That's fine, you have an old relationship with her, maybe you can really move her to think of other ways." ”
When the imperial concubine heard this, she saluted again, and then walked outside.
Outside, Ah Tang was talking to Chu Ci.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw her master come out, she hurriedly turned around and saluted from afar.
Seeing that Chu Ci hadn't gone far, the imperial concubine hurriedly quickened her pace and walked towards the two.
"Imperial Concubine Niangniang!" Chu Ci also knew that there was no way to avoid this side today, so he simply stepped forward, took the initiative to salute, and shouted.
When the imperial concubine heard this, she stretched out her hand to help Chu Ci.
When Chu Ci saw her movements, the corners of his mouth were slightly invisibly hooked up with a hint of ridicule, then avoided her, stood up straight, and said, "The imperial concubine doesn't have to test me anymore, when you decided to help the abuse and help people break up our husband and wife, there was no love between us!" ”
"You will never be able to make up for the damage you have done to me, and you will never be able to make up for it!"
"So, in the future, we will return to the bridge, the road will return to the road, and I will take my Yangguan Road. Take your single-plank bridge! ”
"I'm leaving, I don't have to send it off!"
After speaking, he didn't even give the imperial concubine a chance to speak, turned around and left.
The imperial concubine watched Chu Ci lead the people and walked away step by step.
After a long time, she let out a long sigh, "In the end...... Still can't go back! ”
Ah Cheng didn't speak, and in the conversation with Chu Ci just now, she also noticed Chu Ci's coldness.
Now she is like the same person as she was at the beginning.
"By the way, you stopped her, what did she tell you?" The master and servant turned around, and when they walked down the corridor, the imperial concubine looked at Ah Tang as if she remembered something.
Ah Tang listened to his master's inquiry, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "The princess said...... She knew why the slave stopped her, and she also said that the last time she saved the eldest prince, it was the last time she stopped for the slave! ”
"In the future, no matter what happens to the slave and maid, no matter who begs her, she will not stop again."
"Hongu knows!" The imperial concubine said, and in her eyes, there was unwillingness and darkness gathering layer by layer.
It wasn't until she returned to the dormitory of Cining Palace that the different emotions in her eyes were put away.
After leaving the palace, Chu Ci got into the carriage.
After the car drove smoothly, Zhexia took out a ball of notes from his sleeve, handed it to Chu Ci, and said, "Girl, this is given to the slave maid by a little palace maid named Yanhong in Cining Palace." ”
Chu Ci took the note, opened it and found that it was Ju Rui's handwriting.
What is written on it is the whereabouts of the Gu Master of Southern Xinjiang who gave her Gu a few days ago - that Gu Master's name in the Yun Dynasty is Chang San, and he is also proficient in the art of disguise, often disguised as someone else, sometimes frequently, and even his identity is different every day. Before she woke up, Chang San had been hiding in Cining Palace, but after she woke up, Chang San felt that the palace was not very safe, so he went to Chengenhou's Mansion.
Ju Rui also said that in Chang San's hand, there was a Gu worm that could prolong his life, called Longevity Gu. When he was in the palace before, he talked to the Empress Dowager Ren, but in the end, the price was not negotiated, and it was over!
When Chu Ci saw the three words of longevity Gu, his eyes lit up all of a sudden.
Isn't this the relic of his grandfather that Yiying has been tracking?
It's really in the hands of this Chang San.
Wait until she gets back and tell her the news. She's going to be happy, right?
Thinking like this, the feeling of depression brought by entering the palace was swept away at once.
An hour later, the carriage stopped at the gate of the Chu house.
After Chu Ci stepped on the elevator and got out of the car, he found that there was a carriage and a horse parked at the other end of the alley.
Isn't it, there's a guest at home?
Thinking like this, she walked towards the Chu Mansion with a belly full of suspicions.
After entering the door, I asked Steward Wu and learned that there was indeed a guest at home, and he was also an acquaintance from the time of Jinling - Dingnan Hou Xiao Zhenyun and his cousin Niu Huahuaer.
What are they here for?
Chu Ci secretly speculated and continued to walk towards the hall.
Between the halls. There were four people sitting opposite each other, Yiying to Xiao Zhenyun, and Lu Xiaojunwang to Niu Huahuaer.
"Lady, are you back?" King Lu Xiaojun was facing the screen in the hall, and when he saw Chu Ci coming back, he hurriedly got up and shouted, with a little joy on his face.
Chu Ci came in and nodded slightly at him.
Then he looked at Dingnan Hou Xiao Zhenyun, and said, "Master Hou, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Dingnanhou had indeed not seen Chu Ci for a long time, and at this time, the voice that he had missed for a long time immediately got up and said. "Princess, long time no see."
Niu Hua'er came with her cousin, and at this moment, seeing that her cousin only had Chu Ci in his eyebrows, he immediately became jealous, pulled his cousin's sleeve hard, gritted his teeth and said, "Cousin, you haven't introduced me to the princess yet!" ”
Xiao Zhenyun ...... to him The cousin was also speechless, and when he heard the words, he turned his head sideways and glanced at her in a complicated manner, before turning to Chu Ci and speaking. "Concubine Shizi, this is Benhou's cousin - Niu's flowers."
Hearing this, Chu Ci's eyes glanced at the woman lightly, "Oh? You are the cousin Niu who scared me when I was in Jinling? ”
Niu Hua'er: "......"
It's been so long since that incident, she really didn't expect Chu Ci to mention it again.
Especially when the two met for the first time, she did not shy away from mentioning it.
I could only tear off my cousin's hand again with hatred, and called "cousin" a thousand times.
Xiao Zhenyun didn't mean to make up for her, but looked directly at Chu Ci and said, "Dare to ask the princess, is there any thorn strip or bamboo strip in the house?" ”
Chu Ci listened to Xiao Zhenyun say this. Although I didn't quite understand what he meant, I nodded and said, "Yes!" ”
As she spoke, she turned her head slightly and looked at Zhe Xia Dao, who was following beside her, "Since Hou Ye is in need, you can go and get a few wattles for Hou Ye!" ”
Zhexia answered, turned around and walked out.
In the hall, Niu Huahua'er still looked at her cousin in surprise, and pretended to be coquettish and whispered, "Cousin, I asked you to explain to the princess for me, what are you asking people to do with the wattle bamboo strips?" ”
Xiao Zhenyun turned around. glanced at his cousin's face, which looked like "donkey feces and hoarfrost", and then quietly withdrew his sleeve and said word by word, "Please take the blame!" ”
"Guilty of Jing pleading?!" Niu Huahua has never read a book, but after mixing in the Jinling boudoir circle for a few years, she still has some cultural knowledge.
At this moment, she looked at her cousin with a puzzled expression, and asked suspiciously, "Who is to blame?" ”
Xiao Zhenyun didn't speak, and waited until Zhe Xia took the thorn back.
He rushed to his cousin beside him and said in a deep voice, "Since the thorn strip has been taken, cousin, you will start asking the princess for a mouth!" ”
Niu Huahua looked at her cousin in disbelief. He tugged at his sleeve again, "Cousin, what are you talking about?" Why do you want me to take the blame! ”
"Why don't you?" Xiao Zhenyun turned his head sideways, looked at her condescendingly and asked.
Niu Hua'er didn't think about it, so she shook her head and said, "Of course I don't want to, I'm here to be a guest, not to be beaten." ”
"In that case, then I'll help you!" As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed towards Niu Hua'er's acupoint.
When she couldn't move, he pressed her shoulders again, knocking her to the ground.
It happened too fast, too suddenly. Niu Hua'er's knees slammed to the ground, and she realized what her cousin had done.
Immediately exhaled in pain, and shouted, "Cousin, it hurts, you let go of me...... Otherwise, when I go back and tell my aunt, my aunt won't let you go! ”
Xiao Zhenyun heard her howl, frowned, and was a little behind her again, and she couldn't even scream at this time.
She could only stare at her cousin desperately.
But after Xiao Zhenyun controlled her, he didn't look at her again, but turned to Chu Ci and arched his hand. "I'm sorry, princess, it took so long for things to give you an explanation! Today, Ben Hou, who is a cousin, will take her to learn Lian Po once, and bear the guilt! Live or die! ”
"Princess, please!"
Chu Ci didn't expect things to come to this point.
She looked at Cousin Niu Huahua'er who was kneeling on the ground, and then at Cousin Dingnanhou with a sincere face, and finally her eyes fell on the face of King Lu Xiaojun.
King Lu Xiaojun saw the plea in Chu Ci's eyes, and immediately took two steps forward, took her into his arms and said, "Since the Hou Ye is so sincere, then the lady should not let her down!" ”
When the words fell, he didn't wait for Chu Ci to speak, he looked at Zhexia next to him, and said, "You are the lady's personal maidservant, and you will be sentenced by you for the lady today, remember, the girl's family, you can't slap your face, anywhere else, whatever!" ”
Zhexia: "...... Does my uncle have any other orders? "For example, light and heavy life and death or something?
When King Lu Xiaojun heard Zhi Xia ask like this, as if he had seen her thoughts, he spit out another sentence lightly, "In the end, it is still Dingnanhou's cousin." Just take a breath! ”
"Yes, uncle!" Zhexia agreed.
The next moment, he raised the thorn in his hand and pulled it towards Niu Hua'er's back.
She didn't use internal force.
Of course, it was not that she felt sorry for the woman kneeling on the ground, but that she was afraid that she would use internal force and pull people to death in a few strokes, and it was difficult to explain to her master.
In this way, she was soft, and it took more than half an hour to put down the wattle in her hand and look at her cousin Niu Hua'er, who had fainted under her feet, covered with blood on her back, and was unconscious. said, "Girl, uncle, the execution is over!" ”
"Stand down!" King Lu Xiaojun waved his hand at Zhe Xia, and Zhe Xia walked out with Jing Tiao.
Chu Ci glanced at the girl lying on the ground like a bloody man again, and then looked at Dingnan Hou Dao, "Cousin Ling is already like this, Hou Ye might as well send her back first, and when she recovers from her injuries, we will talk about it in the future." ”
"It's good!" Dingnan Hou bowed his hand, bowed to Chu Ci and King Lu Xiaojun, and then asked the little guy next to him to lift the cow flowers on the ground. Turn around and walk straight away.
The little girl had been watching this scene, and her eyes were about to pop out.
It wasn't until Chu Ci asked people to come in to clean up the blood stains on the ground that she jumped to Chu Ci's side in fright, hugged her arm, and said, "Sister, is that Hou Ye human?" How could he be so ruthless, it was his cousin! It's terrible to beat people to death like this! ”
Seeing that the little girl was so scared, Chu Ci couldn't help but raise his hand and gently patted the back of her hand, "It's no wonder that he is." Really, his cousin is so ignorant! ”
As she spoke, she walked towards Xie Ciju with the little girl, and at the same time told Niu Huahuaer some things in Jinling.
After listening to this, the little girl nodded knowingly, and said, "So that's the case, then it's no wonder, if I were that Dingnanhou, I would also want to kill her!" ”
Chu Ci smiled and didn't continue the topic, she told her again about the note that Ju Rui gave her after leaving the palace.
Yiying listened to Chu Ci finish talking about Chang San and Longevity Gu, her face suddenly became solemn, she held Chu Ci's hand tightly, and said word by word, "Sure enough, sure enough, he was there!" ”
"I must kill him, retrieve the Longevity Gu, and comfort my grandfather's spirit in the sky!"
"Definitely!"
Chu Ci heard the resoluteness in her words, endured the pain, and patted lightly on the back of her hand holding her, "What do you want to do, just let it go, I will help you!" ”
"Thank you, sister!" Hearing this, Yiying turned to Chu Ci and said in a low voice, but before he finished speaking, his eyes turned red.
Chu Ci gently took her into his arms, patted her on the back, and persuaded her in a low voice.
It wasn't until she was persuaded that she was calmed down, and then she used the excuse that she had other things to do, and asked Zhejin to accompany her back to the wing.
It's still the same as before.
As soon as she left with her front foot, Queen Lu Xiaojun's hind foot rushed into the bedroom, and after he and Chu Ci sat down on the Luohan bed, they raised their eyes with a resentful look, "Lady." Yiying, she doesn't really want to insert a lifetime between the two of us, right? ”
"Naturally not!" Chu Ci has gone through a lot of things today, but he didn't have the heart to joke with him, and directly shook his head and said, "Within three or five years, I will definitely find a way to marry her!" ”
Speaking of getting married, she accidentally thought of Xiao Zhenyun, Hou of Dingnan, who came to the door today.
Immediately, his face changed, he looked up at him and said, "By the way, Xianggong, wouldn't Dingnanhou be the young talent you brought back today?" ”
"What, lady, are you not satisfied?" Hearing Chu Ci ask like this, King Lu Xiaojun's face also changed and paused. He added, "But I think Xiao Zhenyun is a very good hillbilly, he has a title, he is not very old, his family is simple, and he is un......married."
"The important thing is, you don't like him and Yiying, right?"
"Lady, why did you, why did you see through my mind all of a sudden?" King Lu Xiaojun didn't expect Chu Ci to discover the little calculation in his heart through a few words from him, and for a while, his face was a little embarrassed.
Chu Ci looked at him, couldn't help but snort softly, then reached out and picked up his ear and said, "Lu Yifeng, I know you don't like Yiying, and you want to find someone to send her away, but don't forget, she has another identity, that is, the second miss of the Chu Mansion, you want to marry my sister casually, have you asked my opinion!" ”
"Lady, lady spare your life!" King Lu Xiaojun was a little hurt by Chu Ci, and hurriedly begged for mercy, "I know it's wrong, I shouldn't forget that the little girl is still the lady's sister, so in this way, I promise, I promise that the next time I bring someone back, I must have asked the lady what she meant, so what's okay?" ”
"That's pretty much it!" Chu Ci listened to him apologize, changed his mind again, and then let go of his ears.
After that, the two talked about cow flowers.
King Lu Xiaojun snorted softly, "The young master thought that it would take a few more years to settle accounts with her, but I didn't expect to be preempted by Xiao Zhenyun's hillbilly!" ”
