Chapter 209: It's like a world away

The world is impermanent, Zhu Qiming unknowingly stole the limelight from the Son of Heaven!

Before the news of the emperor's wedding spread, an even more explosive news shook the entire capital, and this news spread to all parts of the country through the spread of peddlers' pawns.

Everywhere in Beijing, you can see people gathering together to talk in the streets, and among these various people, there are dancers with flying eyebrows and sighs.

"King Yue fell into the water bizarrely, the evil poison invaded his body, and his appearance was ruined!"

"It's a pity that a young man in the capital of nail art has changed his ghost-like face overnight, from extremely beautiful to extremely ugly, there is a difference between cloud and mud!"

"This year, I was fortunate to see the king of Yue, that handsome, that heroic, hey, don't talk about women, I'm afraid that men will be moved when they see him, but now······ Alas, God is jealous! ”

Someone on the side shouted: "Go!" Inaccurate words! The cries were soon drowned out in the sound of the crowd's subsequent saliva.

"I heard that Concubine Zhou's sister went to see King Yue, and she was so scared that she was bedridden for ten days before she recovered!"

"Hey, not to mention Concubine Zhou's sister! I heard that the queen went to visit King Yue, and she was so scared that she broke her feet! ”

······

"It's so much better!"

Mama Cui put a golden mask on Zhu Qiming's head, looked at it carefully, and finally nodded with satisfaction.

The golden mask was specially made for him by the queen mother, and it was put on his head, revealing only a pair of eyes, and even his nose was hidden by the nose-like bulge on the mask. There are two small holes at the bottom of the nose to make it easier for him to breathe.

"Your Highness has scared the second miss of the Zhou family a lot!"

Well deserved, flower butterfly! Zhu Qiming immediately had a scene in his mind that made him feel very comfortable. That day, Zhou Xiaodie went to the courtyard accompanied by the two little palace maids of Xianxi Palace, and before she went to the corridor, she saw Zhu Qiming walking out of the main hall, revealing a terrifying face with a blue complexion and dense sores in front of their eyes, which frightened the two little palace maids screaming and turning around and running, while Zhou Xiaodie trembled, sat on the ground with her buttocks, and crawled out of the courtyard upside down.

"It's okay to scare her, lest she come to the other courtyard to annoy the king again!"

He made a rather vicious expression, but this viciousness was covered by a mask, and just looking at his gaze, there were only subtle changes, and it was difficult to fully show the complex inner activities.

Mama Cui shook her head vigorously and sighed, "If you don't come to see Your Highness, Your Highness will be comfortable?" ”

Zhu Qiming raised his neck, "Who said you won't come to see this king?" Haven't Princess Changde and King Yu been here! ”

He remembered that day. Princess Changde didn't dislike him like others, probably mentally prepared, she didn't show the slightest horror at that time, but her tone was with a strong sense of banter.

"I used to live in the Forbidden City and didn't think that people's appearance was very different, but after I came out of the cabinet, I saw more people, and then I realized that there are too many ugly people in the world, one is uglier than the other, and I really responded to the sentence: there is no ugliest, only uglier! However, since I met you King Yue today, I feel that sentence is too arbitrary, and the ugliest person can still be found in this world! ”

It hurts my self-esteem so much! Fortunately, he hasn't eaten with his face over the years, and he can't feel the potential value of a beautiful face, otherwise, after listening to Princess Changde's words, I'm afraid I have the heart to jump off the building!

Turning his head to look at King Yu. King Yu, how about you say a few words of comfort to me!

King Yu lived up to his expectations, and said sympathetically: "King Yue, don't think about it, ha, there will be no shortage of saltless women in the world, find a saltless woman to be the princess of Yue, although it will take some words, but maybe people will be moved by your misfortune, and you don't know if your mind is hot to deal with this matter!" ”

Get out!

There is no way, Princess Changde and King Yu know that Zhu Qiming really doesn't care much about his accidental disfigurement, anyway, the imperial doctor said that after he fell into the water, the evil poison invaded his body, but his life was safe. Listen, only disfigured, not killed! Instead of constantly sighing in his ear and making him sad, it is better to let him face the reality directly.

But was the disfigurement really an accident? Why do you always feel that the numbness on your waist at that time seems so incredible? Also, if it weren't for Mama Cui and the others who accidentally turned back from the high platform and approached the corridor early, what happened to them would really be as simple as falling into the water?

"Mama Cui, did any outsiders approach this king that night?"

Cui Mama shook her head, "Your Highness, the slave and maid have said many times, the Jinyi guard who was on duty outside the courtyard that night did not see outsiders entering the hospital, when His Royal Highness screamed, the slave and maid took Yin'er and Quqing and they were very close to the corridor, although it was dark, but if there were outsiders present, the three slaves and maids would definitely hear the movement." ”

That's right, unless you meet a ghost, why haven't a few big living people heard a little movement? Although he had doubts about this matter in his heart, Zhu Qiming didn't want to think deeper, the emperor and the queen's honeymoon had not ended, and everyone should stop at this time!

There is still a deep sense of loss in his heart that haunts him, just like suddenly losing the life dream that he has been cherishing for many years and has devoted his heart and soul to it.

"Why did Sister Lu leave that day?" He finally spat out this question, although he had expected the cause of the incident, he still wanted to get confirmation from Cui Mama's mouth.

Mama Cui hesitated for a long time, "Alas, those of us who are slaves and maids just listen to some cruel words, Miss Lu is a well-informed daughter of the official family, and her reputation is so precious!" How can it be ······ again and again? That's it, the slave doesn't dare to talk nonsense. It's just that Miss Lu's heart may be broken this time! ”

Zhu Qiming slowly sat down with the back of the chair, picked up the "Magical Secret Spectrum" on the bookcase, and threw it vigorously on the bookshelf.

"It's good to be heartbroken, how can this king's ghost look worthy of her to be a companion!"

Mama Cui used to put "The Secret Spectrum" on the bookshelf, "There are so many doctors in the Tai Hospital, and none of them can restore His Highness's appearance to normal, it's really incomprehensible!" ”

"They only say that it is an evil poison, and they don't even know what it is, and how can it be cured? Check the pulse for this king, see that his life is safe, just prescribe a few pairs of decoctions, why waste your efforts! ”

Mama Cui turned around and suddenly her eyes lit up, "Eh, Your Highness, didn't you fall asleep for three days at first?" There is a Lingxu Dao aunt into the palace to meet the empress dowager, heard about the matter of the other courtyard, so she went to the emperor to ask for a decree, to ask for the pulse for His Royal Highness, she said that His Royal Highness is the Western Regions strange poison, what is called 'Wu Chi San', she also said that there is a cure, to find what Beibei Di fruit, and take it with Bei Mingquan, three days to heal. ”

Zhu Qiming snorted, "What kind of black is scattered, Beibei Diguo, Beibei Mingquan, as soon as I heard these inexplicable words, I knew that she was playing tricks!" ”

"The doctors of the Tai Hospital also said the same, but it's a pity that Ling Xudao Gu doesn't have the two things in his hands, such as the Beibei Diguo and the Beibei Mingquan, and he can't point to a place clearly, no wonder others don't believe it."

"That's it! Is it possible that this king should go to Mobei and even Heilongjiang savage Jurchen to find it himself! ”

At this time, Yin'er and Qu Qing probed their brains outside the door, hesitated for a while, and walked in one after another.

"Your Highness."

"Your Highness."

The two of them were a little afraid on their faces at first, and they glanced at the mask on Zhu Qiming's head in a daze, and their faces eased slightly.

Zhu Qiming waved his hand, "You guys are busy with other things." After the two of them walked away, they smiled bitterly: "Even Yin'er and Qu Qing are afraid of being like this when they see this king, let alone others!" ”

Mama Cui gritted her teeth and glanced outside the door, "It's all His Highness, and the slaves and maids have to discipline them well!" ”

"They are young, so Mama doesn't have to be harsh on them."

Mama Cui sulked for a long time, and after calming down, she hurriedly mentioned Ling Xu's words: "Eh, Your Highness, the Queen Mother and the Emperor have some faith in Ling Xu's words." ”

"Dead horses are treated as live horses······ Suddenly realizing that this was unlucky, Zhu Qiming quickly changed the topic: "Has the emperor been here?" ”

"I've been here, I heard that His Royal Highness is unconscious, and the queen came to visit with the emperor, but your appearance at that time scared the queen a lot!"

Thinking that the queen showed the demeanor of "motherhood in the world" for the first time, she was disturbed by herself, Zhu Qiming secretly said ashamed. suddenly remembered the Empress Dowager, "Does the Empress Dowager know about this?" ”

"The Empress Dowager can't let the Empress Dowager know about this yet. Eh, Your Highness, don't say it, the Queen Mother really didn't say anything to you! The Son of Heaven has just gotten married, and a lot of things in the palace have to be taken care of, but the Queen Mother doesn't care, she guards you every day, if not, the slaves and maids will be in great trouble! ”

Hearing this, Zhu Qiming seemed to have two huge forces tearing in his heart, and he couldn't be sure which force he would choose to stand on in the end.

In the deep groaning, he suddenly remembered Xiao Hai's invitation on Wu Yin Day, and he slept for three days and didn't know anything, so, did Xiao Hai come to the other courtyard the next day? I wanted to ask Mama Cui, but I suddenly heard the sound of the imperial attendant outside the courtyard.

"The emperor has arrived!"

Zhu Qiming walked out of the study quickly, and saw that the accompanying chamberlains and palace maids were all left outside the courtyard, and the palace maids who appeared hung their heads, and a few bold chamberlains glanced at Zhu Qiming from a distance curiously. I was a little surprised, and I settled there.

I can't scare you! Zhu Qiming wanted to take off the mask and give the voyeur a full photo, but he saw the emperor emerge from the willow shade on the side of the road, followed by a person, and when he looked at it, it was Xining!

For some reason, Zhu Qiming suddenly became impulsive, and he quickly calculated in his heart to see if he could find a wooden stick or something, and took the opportunity to try Xining's skills, and it was not in vain that he did not hesitate to give up the pure land in the study for the tryst of King Yu, in exchange for the spoilers of King Yun's "freehand cutting".

"King Yue is exempt!"

The emperor's command woke Zhu Qiming up from his thoughts, and he greeted him at the end of the corridor and made a regular salute.

The emperor left Xining on the road and went up to the corridor alone. "I wanted to tell you, it's okay for you to go out during the day to scare people, but don't go out at night, it's weird and scary to have midnight terrors everywhere in the Forbidden City! Unexpectedly, the queen mother's method works, and I think it's much more pleasing to the eye at the moment! ”

Hearing the emperor's jokes, Zhu Qiming didn't feel funny, and his eyes finally left Xining's face.

The emperor stood by the railing, "I can't figure it out, how could you, a person who practices martial arts, fall into the water?" ”

"The minister can't figure it out, when the palace maid Meizi of Xianxi Palace fell into a dry well, and the minister fell into the lotus pond not long ago, there are always some things in the Forbidden City that people can't understand."

I saw that the emperor's face sank, "What do you mean by this!" ”
