Chapter 55: Cutting the Weeds and Eradicating the Roots (1)
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, someone is coming, Your Majesty has fainted, go and pass the imperial doctor." Seeing Gaozong vomiting blood and fainting, Cheng Dali was suddenly startled and immediately shouted desperately.
Fortunately, there were guards on duty everywhere outside the palace, and when they heard that the emperor in the palace had fainted, they hurriedly helped the emperor to the couch, and at the same time, someone rushed forward to summon the imperial doctor and inform the queen, the prince and others.
After a while, Empress Wu, the crown prince and others all rushed to the palace, and Qin Minghe, the doctor of the fashionable pharmacy, also hurried over when he heard the news, and after a simple salute, he immediately started to diagnose and treat Gaozong's condition.
After a stick of incense, Wu Zi saw Qin Minghe's brows tightly locked, and he was silent.
"Doctor Qin, how is Your Majesty's condition?" Seeing Qin Minghe's appearance, Empress Wu couldn't help but feel a sinking in her heart, but she still asked.
I saw Qin Minghe sigh lightly and said: "Back to the queen, Your Majesty is overly sad and angry, causing fainting, this matter is not difficult, as long as you apply the bait and recuperate with peace of mind, you can be cured, it's just ......"
"What's it? As the saying goes, you don't have to babble. The Empress Wu was quite impatient when she heard this, and said with a cold face.
"No, it's just that this disease is from the heart, if you want to eradicate it, you also need heart medicine to treat, now Your Majesty is sad in your heart, and you urgently need a big happy event to adjust, so that you can help each other, otherwise, once the qi is knotted inside, Weichen may cause His Majesty's chronic illness, and at that time, I am only afraid of Da Luo Jinxian, and it is difficult to make His Majesty's dragon body recover."
"Bold!" When Empress Wu saw the other party say this, she couldn't help but be furious, and the doctor hurriedly kowtowed and confessed. However, Empress Wu also knew that what the doctor said was true, so she didn't blame it, thought silently for a while, and then said: "I just don't know what happy events can be made for Your Majesty at this time?" ”
At this moment, there was a report from the maid in the palace of Mrs. Korea: "The queen is the queen mother, and the slave has a happy event." ”
But he heard the Empress Wu say angrily: "The master of your family has just died, and you have a happy face, and you say that there is a very happy event, which is really hateful. ”
"Huh? Niangniang, spare your life, the slave and maid really have a happy event to repay, please allow the slave and maid to finish, my master she has come back to life......"
"Wait." Seeing this, Li Xian on the side hurriedly stopped the attendant who wanted to be executed, hurriedly came to the front of the martial queen, bowed down and said: "Mother, this dog slave lied to the resurrection of the aunt, I don't know if it's true or not, why don't you let the child go to visit, if it's fake, it's not too late to kill this dog slave cane, if it's true, wouldn't it be a happy event?" Isn't it a good opportunity for the Holy One to be relieved of his illness because of this? ”
"Yes, mother, what the sixth brother said is reasonable, if my aunt really comes back to life, wouldn't it be a great joy? Presumably, the saint learned that he would definitely adjust his heartache, and his condition would be greatly alleviated, and even a complete recovery was unknown. ”
The crown prince Li Hong naturally didn't want anything wrong with the emperor, otherwise it would be difficult for him to compete with the martial queen with his current strength, so it was also very natural to hope that what the maid said was true, which would be equivalent to giving the emperor a shot in the arm, so that the emperor's condition would be alleviated or even recovered.
Seeing that the two brothers all stood up, Li Xian slowly stood up, and also repeated the words of the two brothers.
Although it is also repetitive, this does not mean that Li Xian's concern for Gaozong lags behind that of Li Hong and Li Xian.
In fact, Li Xian was the same beneficiary as Empress Wu in this incident, but the understanding of the two sides was different, Empress Wu thought that she took this opportunity to get rid of Helan Minyue and remove the threat to herself, and at the same time got rid of Wu Weiliang and Wu Huaiyun, the two guys who were in the way, and also made Gaozong sick, and she could use this as an excuse to seize power, which can really be described as killing three birds with one stone.
And Li Xian's profit is that the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch behind, because he has a long-term vision, trying to take this opportunity to wipe out all the Wu family disciples, so as to cut off the future wings of the Wu family, and he has made careful preparations in advance, I believe that these Wu family disciples in custody this time will definitely be in a catastrophe, and it is even possible to cut all the Wu family children to the roots. In addition, he also successfully held an important piece of evidence, believing that he could prove that Empress Wu had murdered Wei's wife Helan Minyue at any time in the future.
This can't help but blame Li Xian for being suspicious and cunning, because he knows the person of the Empress Wu too well, if there is no conflict in interests, she can play the role of a good wife and mother, but once the interests are threatened to a certain extent, she will definitely not hesitate to curb or even strangle.
Mrs. Wei is undoubtedly a typical example, although there is Li Xian's boost, but the leader is still Empress Wu, because the poisoner is Empress Wu's person, and she is the one who stimulates Helan Minyue to taste the dishes, and these two points are the key to Helan Minyue's poisoning.
Of course, it can't be said that Li Xian doesn't have to bear any responsibility at all, at least if it weren't for his boost, Helan Minyue might not have died so quickly, and it was precisely because of this that Li Xian felt guilty in his heart, so he secretly ordered him to pay attention to Mrs. Han's movements in the palace at any time, and it was precisely for this reason that Mrs. Han could be discovered in time after committing suicide, and was finally pulled back from the hands of death.
The reason why Li Xian did this was not only because of guilt, but also because of another purpose, that is, to make the heartbroken Gaozong still have a little comfort, believing that as long as Gaozong lifted his spirits a little, he would not completely hand over the power to Empress Wu.
Of course, the Empress Wu didn't know anything about Li Xian's careful arrangement, and even when she heard that Mrs. Han had rescued her from the palace, she didn't think much about it at all, she just thought that it was the palace slave who rescued herself, or just thought that Mrs. Han had a big life, and she felt a little regret in her heart.
Although she regretted it in her heart, because the three sons all agreed to send someone to visit Mrs. Han to see if she had really been rescued, and this matter was conducive to Gaozong's condition, she naturally couldn't disagree, and at the same time, she also knew that it was unrealistic to send her henchmen to secretly deal with the resurrected Mrs. Han at this time, so she had to agree to the request of the sons, and ordered Li Xian and Li Xian to visit Mrs. Wei's palace together.
Li Xian is trying to be as obscure as possible, especially in front of the Empress Wu, he doesn't take the initiative to take on anything, on the surface, he seems to be in line with others, just quietly beating the sticks in secret, and making a fortune in a muffled voice, this time the Empress Wu ordered Li Xian to visit Mrs. Han with him, which is in line with his usual style, so he is happy to let Li Xian charge ahead, and he is just an inconspicuous foil.
Following Li Xian's steps, Li Xian came to the palace of Mrs. Han, and saw that although Wu Shun woke up, his eyes were dull, his spirit was in a trance, and he had no former brilliance at all, and he also sighed and felt guilty in his heart.
"Auntie, what's wrong with you? You have to mourn, Xian'er has lost her sister, and she can't lose you anymore. Looking at the Korean lady in front of him, Li Xian, who has had a deep relationship with her since childhood, couldn't help but burst into tears and muttered.
But I heard Wu Shun muttering: "Why don't you let me die?" Why don't you let me accompany Yue'er? I want to see my Yue'er, she is only one person, she will definitely be afraid under the nine springs, I want to go down to accompany her. ”
"Auntie, auntie, you have to calm down, I'm Xian'er, although I don't have Sister Yue'er, you still have a cousin, you still have Xian'er, although I'm just your nephew, I will definitely treat you like Sister Yue'er and my cousin." Looking at Wu Shun's expression of begging for death, Li Xian couldn't help but feel heartbroken, and hurriedly choked up and said.
"Xian'er, my aunt knows that you have always been very good to me, but my aunt can't take care of you anymore, because my aunt has to go down to take care of Yue'er, and you still have relatives to take care of her, but Yue'er is only ...... herself."
When Mrs. Han said this, her face was already full of tears, and she choked up and couldn't say any more.
Seeing the expressions of the two, Li Xian was also quite sad, sighed softly, and then came to Wu Shun's side, and persuaded softly: "Auntie, please mourn, the deceased is gone, Sister Ah has passed away, I am useless to wait for no matter how painful it is, rather than hurting the past, it is better to cherish the present and cherish the people who are still alive......"
Unexpectedly, before Li Xian's words were finished, he was interrupted by Li Xian: "Get out!" Don't pretend here, I know that you were sent by the queen to spy on me, but I still treat my aunt as a relative, what can you do to me? If you have the ability, you will denounce me and let him execute me, so as to fulfill the heart of your mother and son. ”
"This, this, the elder brother thinks it's a misunderstanding, the younger brother doesn't have this intention, people are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless? Although the aunt is not a mother, she is connected with her mother's flesh and blood, and the younger brother is sad when he sees his aunt so sad, but he just enlightens two words, and has no other meaning. ”
"Hehe, it's so unintentional! How did this king not know about this cunning man? You have been favored by your parents since you were a child, and you have nothing to do with your aunt and sister, why are you so kind and come to enlighten your aunt? It's nothing more than seeing my aunt lose her own daughter, and I came to see my aunt's jokes. "Li Xian has been loved by the Empress Wu since he was a child, so he has always been full of jealousy of Li Xian in his heart, but fortunately, he is free and well-educated, so he can still restrain himself in his heart, but today because he is sad for Wu Shun and Helan Minyue's mother and daughter, he is also speechless in a hurry, and scolds Li Xian loudly.
"Why did my brother say that? The little brother really had no other intentions. Li Xian saw that Li Xian was gradually losing his mind, and he didn't want to bother with him anymore, so he just argued quietly and weakly.
"What does it mean to be unreasonable? Your intentions are obvious, my eyes are like watching the fire, you need to hide it, get out of the way quickly, otherwise I will not be polite. ”
Li Xian scolded Li Xian, he was still angry in his heart, he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to do it, but he heard Wu Shun shouting: "Xian'er, stop." ”
