PS: The night before yesterday, Yuguo worked the night shift; The day before yesterday, I helped my sister move and tossed all day; The night before yesterday, it was another night shift; We had a meeting yesterday morning and a dinner party in the afternoon. So, the foolish fruit fell down; So, yesterday's novel was not written. Today, I slept until 2:14 p.m., still feeling sleepy. Alas, am I old? I don't know how old my friends are when they read my books? After the foolish fruit is in the eighties, roar~~~

When you enter Wenyang Pavilion, you can smell the smell of medicine coming to your face. Emperor Tianze, under the effect of Liu Minghui's method of burying blessings, was actually terminally ill. The reason why the crown prince Liu Mingli was able to be rescued by Zhou Xiaocao is also due to many factors. First, I happened to meet Zhou Xiaocao, a person from later generations, who knew the method of blood exchange; second, Zhou Xiaocao's blood type just matched Liu Mingli's, and there was no exclusive reaction of Rh blood type after that, which is a great luck; Third, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is accompanied by Liu Da and Liu Er's masters, which is enough to exchange blood without infusion equipment.

Without these three, it would be impossible to succeed. But even with these three items, Tianze Emperor Liu Zhengyuan's illness cannot be cured, because his poison has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and there is no hope of cure. Besides, Zhou Xiaocao knew that this was the emperor, and he didn't dare to do it. If he knew that the patient in his family that day was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, I am afraid that he would not have said anything and would not have treated him.

Because, he can't afford to lose.

Therefore, Zhou Xiaocao entered Wenyang Pavilion with his newly recognized Abel Zhu Mao, knowing that Emperor Tianze was sick, he didn't think about whether he could cure it? That's right, how many doctors are there in the palace, and where is his turn to be a layman? Although sometimes the blind cat catches a dead mouse, he doesn't dare to treat the emperor as a mouse.

Emperor Tianze was sitting on a soft couch, and a palace maid was wiping away the remaining liquid from the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief.

Zhu Mao stood at the door and said, "On the sage, Cangzhou raised Zhou Xiaocao to bring it." ”

Emperor Tianze replied, "Come in, I happen to have something to do with him." ”

Zhou Xiaocao didn't dare to raise his head after coming in according to Zhu Mao's instructions, first walked to about two meters in front of Emperor Tianze, and then knelt down and shouted: "Minister Zhou Xiaocao, see the saint!" ”

Emperor Tianze's slightly cloudy eyes revealed a gleam, who thought that this was just a shoucheng emperor and didn't have many powerful skills, it would be wrong. Just like the method of burying blessings, he knew that it was his nephew Liu Minghui who offered it, so he revealed it to his younger brother Liu Yanbi in turn, and saw that Prince Gong also used this method, so he used it boldly and with confidence. But he didn't calculate that Liu Minghui was even pitted by his father.

"Get up and speak."

Emperor Tianze's voice was very majestic, but it still sounded a little old and hoarse.

Zhou Xiaocao stood up slowly, still not daring to raise his head. Emperor Tianze was very satisfied with Zhou Xiaocao's attitude. When he saw Zhou Xiaocao for the first time, he saw that he was as chic and free in the palace as in his own back garden, Emperor Tianze was very unhappy in his heart, but he didn't expect that after only a while, this kid knew that he would converge. Well, maybe he didn't know I was the emperor at that time.

If his old man knew that there was an old master "Abo" behind Zhou Xiaocao to guide him, it is estimated that he would not think so. Combined with the information brought to him by Zha Yong and Bai Qingzhi, Emperor Tianze believed that Zhou Xiaocao might be a person with a dual personality. That is to say, in the face of people with high cultivation, what is revealed is the side of high cultivation; In the face of people whose character is not so good, what comes out of the table is a scoundrel.

But is Cha Yong really useless?

Chayong is a member of the Holy Gate, and to be able to enter the Holy Gate is at least in some respects particularly good. It's like Cha Yong, he has a deep attainment in easy learning, and he is quite fine with music. Bai Qingzhi, on the other hand, has a deep study of Confucianism.

The master of the Holy Gate can send corresponding talents according to the other party's preferences and cultivation, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to approach you. The principle of the Holy Gate is not to believe that you do not have something to like! Like women, here is; Like money, can the emperor still have no money? If you like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or even fishing, there are people who can "share your interests". Maybe one day, when you find out that the emperor knows everything about your whereabouts, you still can't believe that your pillow person and friend will betray you.

This is the power of the Holy Gate, and this is the meaning of the Holy Gate.

However, to the embarrassment of Emperor Tianze, the Holy Gate encountered such a monster as Zhou Xiaocao for the first time, causing the two masters to get different information.

Emperor Tianze asked: "Your father-in-law is suspected of colluding with foreign countries, have you been involved?" ”

The smile on Zhou Xiaocao's face dried and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is here for this matter. Your Majesty, please see, an ordinary businessman actually smuggled 3,000 catties of pig iron, and it was once, can this get out of the customs? How is he going to take it? He bought so much pig iron, can he not attract the attention of the relevant parties? ”

Emperor Tianze's face did not show joy or anger, and he said calmly: "There is one thing that can remind you, they handed me a walk on it, and it was written that 30,000 catties of smuggled pig iron. ”

Zhou Xiaocao laughed angrily: "Thirty thousand catties? Is there a pig iron output of 30,000 catties a year in the entire Cangzhou City? Where did the father-in-law get so much iron? ”

Emperor Tianze took a sip of tea from the teacup, and said unhurriedly: "I believe what you say." However, this case has become known to the whole world, so you have to give me and the Criminal Department a step down, right? Can't you Zhou Xiaocao enter the palace once, and I will immediately pardon your father-in-law, right? ”

Zhou Xiaocao said: "Your Majesty, but this"

Emperor Tianze picked up the teacup again and said softly: "I'm tired." ”

The host holds the teacup, which means to send off the guest. Zhou Xiaocao, a modern person, doesn't know, how can Zhu Mao, who stays by Emperor Tianze's side all the year round, not know? Bent forward and said to Zhou Xiaocao: "Zhou Juzi, let's step down, right?" ”

Zhou Xiaocao looked at Emperor Tianze, who closed his eyes and recuperated, and said, "That me"

Seeing Zhu Mao's eyes, he had no choice but to swallow the next words back into his stomach and follow Zhu Mao out.

In the Wenyang Pavilion, a person suddenly turned out of the inner room, and it was His Royal Highness the Prince. Liu Mingli said: "Father, since you know that Zhou Xiaocao's father-in-law is wronged, why don't you issue an order to pardon him?" ”

When Emperor Tianze saw his son, a smile appeared on his face, he only had such a son, and this son was his hope.

"Emperor! Did you know that the emperor is the most involuntary person in the world? The detention of Feng Zigui and the confiscation of family property were orders from me personally. Now, do you want me to admit my mistake? Emperor, once you become an emperor in the future, you must understand the emperor's mental technique. And the most important point of the emperor's mental trick is that the emperor is always right, and the wrong are the courtiers. Sometimes, in order to maintain the emperor's face and the dignity of the imperial family, the price to be paid will be great, great. But it's worth it, because there is only one emperor in the whole world, and he is the backbone of all the people in the world. This backbone must be upright, it must be straight, and it must be rigid! As an emperor, you must make a decision as soon as possible, even if it is a wrong decision, so that the courtiers will not be confused, and the people of the world will be brought to heart! Afterwards, if the decision is right, it is 'my emperor is wise', and if the decision is wrong, it is blinded, and someone must be the scapegoat, otherwise you will not be able to account for the courtiers." Do you understand that? ”

Liu Mingli pointed in the direction of the door and said, "Father, but Zhou Xiaocao is him."

Emperor Tianze waved his hand and said, "I know what you want to say. You want to say that Zhou Xiaocao is your savior, right? You're still trying to say that he shouldn't be that scapegoat, right? Emperor, you are wrong! The king has no way, and the concubine Daji who has been attacked; King Zhou You's Beacon Fire Opera princes, the people of the world scold the beauties. How did they become the culprits of the disaster to the country and the people? Just because the king can't be wrong! This idea is not only stored in the hearts of the emperors, but also in the hearts of all people in the world. A woman, married to Shun, will become Empress E; If you marry the king, you will become Daji, do you understand? ”

Liu Mingli nodded and said, "The child will remember his father's teachings." However, can Zhou Xiaocao rescue his father-in-law and wife this time? ”

Emperor Tianze's eyes flashed, and he said calmly: "Hehe, if he can't even do this little thing, how can I trust him to you?" ”
