Three long rooster crows came into the palace, and the first one woke Xue Chongxun up, and then listened carefully to the rooster crow, which was actually not the rooster crow, but the rooster crow learned by the eunuchs of the Inner Service Province, because the rooster crow was not punctual.

When the person first woke up, his consciousness was a little blurred, Xue Chongxun didn't even realize where he was for a while, and after a while, looking around, the morning sun was lightly sprinkled on the carved railing, the curtain was low, and the copper tripod slowly floated with a slight smoke that cleared people's hearts and spleens, and there were several palace maids with high waists and skirts standing on the wall. Xue Chongxun suddenly remembered that he was still in his mother's bedroom, and then everything poured into his mind, making him understand where he was where he was coming from, and what he was going to do.

Don't you have to wait for your mother to wake up and authorize the mobilization of the army to enter Beijing? Xue Chongxun found that he was sleeping next to Princess Taiping's bed, and an extra dark golden curtain had been drawn next to the bed. Even if her son is a man after all, it is not appropriate for Princess Taiping to lie in front of her like this, so now that she has a curtain in front of her bed, people in the dormitory will not be able to see her body.

When Xue Chongxun stood up, he found that something had fallen to the ground, and when he looked back, it turned out to be a silk yarn, worn by a woman. The palace maid on the side said: "The prince fell asleep last night, and the slaves were afraid that you would catch the cold, so they found a piece of clothing to put on." ”

"Oh." Xue Chongxun was about to see if his mother had woken up, because yesterday Yuqing Daogu said that she would wake up, and at this moment he found that the palace maid's face was flushed, and he quickly realized that he had pulled up the "tent" between his legs and made the robe high. He also suddenly felt a little embarrassed, he hadn't been close to a woman recently, and he was naturally energetic, and he must have been like this when he got up in the morning.

"It's like this in the morning, and it's normal for you to bleed every month." Xue Chongxun blurted out, but soon felt that it was nonsense, and what did he do with a palace maid, and he called her a bird. It's okay not to say it, but as soon as she said this, the palace maid's ears turned red.

Xue Chongxun turned around and lifted the curtain, and saw that Princess Taiping was still lying on the bed straight and straight as she did yesterday, with beads of sweat on her forehead and very thin clothes. Because there was no one in the curtain, Xue Chongxun not only glanced at her body, not to mention that her mother was very well maintained, and her plump figure was not out of shape at all, she gave birth to Xue Chongxun at the age of thirteen, and now Xue Chongxun is twenty-seven years old, and the actual age of Princess Taiping is only forty years old, but according to the current algorithm, the virtual age is already forty-two, just in the prime of life, and Xue Chongxun could have protected him for many years. He couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this. If his mother can live as long as his grandmother Wu Zetian and live to be in her seventies, then it will be enough for him to enjoy life in this life.

He stretched out his hand and shook Princess Taiping's shoulder gently, and called: "Mother, Mother, Mother, ......" Seeing that there was no response, he shook with more strength and continued to call. But Princess Taiping still didn't react at all, and was still in a coma.

At this moment, Yuqing's crisp voice came from behind: "Has Your Highness woken up?" ”

Xue Chongxun was a little angry, and said in his heart that Yuqing clearly said yesterday that his mother could wake up, but now he is still in a coma, so what should he do?

When he was about to turn around and question Yuqing, he realized the embarrassment of his lower shirt being raised, so he had to sit back on the stool just now, and his heart was a little depressed, although he had no evil thoughts, but his body was sometimes uncontrollable, such as this early morning.

"Haven't woken up yet, didn't you say you'd wake up this morning?" Xue Chongxun sat down and said.

Yuqing listened to his tone and saw his movements, felt very twisted, frowned, and said: "I have also taken the Yin Yang Qi Imperial Qi Pill, which can expel the poisonous gas of Jiuchen in the body, and lead the clear qi into the dantian, and the cultivation of the Dan can be close to the way of heaven, and it is clear that the Dan will wake ......up" She said as she walked to the side of the bed, and also lifted the curtain to take a look.

Xue Chongxun said: "You give her a pulse, what's going on." ”

Yuqing said innocently: "Poor Dao is not Langzhong, how can he take the pulse?" ”

Xue Chongxun turned around and said, "Call Lang Zhong...... Where is Yuwen Ji? ”

The palace maid said: "The goddess doctor went home the day before yesterday. ”

"That's Dr. Zhou, who is called the Imperial Doctor's Department, come quickly."

After waiting for a long time, an old man with white hair and white beard came into the palace with a medicine box, thinking that it was Dr. Zhou, a capable man from the Imperial Medical Department, this old man himself was very healthy, his hair and beard were all white, he was at least seventy years old, and his face was still glowing red, and he didn't hear him gasp when he walked in.

The palace maids brought Dr. Zhou in and came to Princess Taiping's bed, and Xue Chongxun took one of her hands out of the curtain to prepare to take Dr. Zhou's pulse. After sitting still, the imperial doctor opened the medicine box, took out a cushion and pillowed Taiping's wrist on it, and then gently pinched his pulse with his fingers, and closed his eyes silently.

After a long time, Xue Chongxun saw that he let go of his hand, so he asked, "How is my mother's pulse?" ”

Dr. Zhou muttered, "The pulse is stable, so there is no worry...... What potions have you given to Your Highness? ”

"Yin Yang Imperial Qi Pill." Yuqing replied.

"Yin Yang Imperial Qi Pill?" Dr. Zhou was at a loss, the medical officer and the Taoist priest are completely two unrelated categories, a priest and his Taoist pills, isn't it nonsense, Dr. Zhou didn't understand it at all, and said in amazement, "How does the Taoist chief view the pathology, might as well talk about it and listen to the old decay?" ”

"I don't know." Yuqing's words made Dr. Zhou speechless, and she said, "Poor Dao does not heal diseases and save people, naturally it does not pass pathology, this elixir is also refined according to the ancient books in the tomb, which can not only practice qi and cultivate immortals, but also have the effect of analgesia." Yesterday, His Royal Highness had unbearable abdominal pain, so Poor Dao let her take a pill...... Last time, Poor Dao himself also took it, and he woke up early the next morning, but he couldn't wake up when he thought that His Royal Highness couldn't wake up, and Poor Dao didn't know why. ”

Dr. Zhou said, "The Taoist chief will take another of the same elixir for the old man to see. ”

Yuqing took out a box, and there was a deep purple circle the size of a grape in it, perhaps she brought it over for Princess Taiping to continue eating.

Dr. Zhou took the box, squinted his eyes and looked at it for a while, then sniffed it with his nose, and then took a silver needle to pick up the contents on it and put it in his mouth to taste.

Yuqing's face was embarrassed, and it took a lot of effort to make her refine this thing, and she didn't want to tell others. But seeing that the powerful Princess Taiping was lying unconscious on the bed, she had no choice but to tell it one by one. The method is very complicated and cumbersome, and there are many things that Xue Chongxun has never heard of, anyway, he can't understand it, and he doesn't know how Dr. Zhou is, I'm afraid it's not much better.

At this time, Xue Chongxun grasped the main point and asked directly: "Dr. Zhou made it clear, can you still take this pill?" ”

Dr. Zhou frowned and pondered for a long time before he said cautiously: "Your Highness has a symptom, this disease has no one to treat from ancient times to today, and the old man has lived for more than 70 years...... Forgive the old man for his incompetence, and there is nothing he can do about His Highness's illness. As for this Yin Yang Imperial Qi Pill, it is a Taoist cultivation thing, and it is no longer in the category of medical Taoism, and it is impossible to judge the decay. ”

Xue Chongxun asked again: "My mother is unconscious, what is the reason?" ”

Dr. Zhou immediately quoted a lot of mysteries from Zhengbo, and Xue Chongxun was confused when he heard it...... In his layman's opinion, Chinese medicine is as mysterious as Taoist priests, but Chinese medicine can cure some diseases that has been summarized by experience.

Yuqing said: "Since the imperial doctors have said that His Royal Highness has a terminal illness and there is no cure, why don't you let me take care of her and cultivate the Tao together, are the immortals still afraid of getting sick?" ”

Xue Chongxun said: "But you have to wake her up first, we still have business to talk about with her, and then slowly adjust it." ”

Yuqing looked at Dr. Zhou: "Does the imperial doctor have a way to make His Highness wake up?" ”

Dr. Zhou's eyes widened, as if to say, it wasn't Lao Tzu who cured her unconscious.

At this time, everyone looked at Xue Chongxun and asked him to make up his mind, because Xue Chongxun was the eldest son of Princess Taiping, and Princess Taiping couldn't decide on their family's affairs, so he should naturally have the final say.

Xue Chongxun frowned, thought about it, there was a lot of involvement, but he was not a person who complicated things, and simply thought about it: his mother is already terminally ill, and now it is useless to blame Yuqing for making people unconscious, and what if the Taoist priest of a dead horse as a live horse doctor really cures his mother?

He originally wanted to ask Princess Taiping for authorization to transfer troops, but now that people can't speak, he was a little annoyed with Yuqing in his heart, but when he calmed down, he thought that if it weren't for Yuqing, Princess Taiping would be in pain and couldn't bear it; What's more, now that Princess Taiping is in a coma, she can also go through the court agency to find a certain prime minister in the political hall to write a letter, and then let the emperor approve it...... Li Shouli was originally the emperor, but the power was controlled by the Taiping before.

So he didn't say anything to blame, and only let Yuqing stay and take care of Princess Taiping, at least to alleviate some of her pain.

At this point, Xue Chongxun had to put down this side for the time being, and use his time on the side of the political affairs hall. He asked Zhang Shuo, the secretary of the Ministry of War, to write a letter to transfer the Shen Ce Army, and asked Lu Xiang, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, to directly transfer Zhang Wulang and Yu Wenxiao back to Beijing.

Although Xue Chongxun didn't think that Li Longji's henchmen, who had been in obscurity before, had much chance of winning, but the central government lost the backbone of Princess Taiping, and Li Shouli's title as emperor was not very legitimate, and it was unpredictable at the time of power change, and some things really had to be guarded against.
