Chapter 37: The Lord of Jokhang
Rong Ruo put down a bottle of hemostatic powder in his hand and said with a smile: "I mean before, thank you for speaking for me." β
Between Lu Siming's eyebrows, in addition to the bookish atmosphere, there was also some sadness lingering, she looked in the direction of the inner room, and said quietly: "I hope the prince can survive this catastrophe safely this time." β
After Rong Ruo finished checking, the palace maid moved the things inside one by one, Rong Ruo was also ready, and she replied, "I will do my best." β
Lu Siming didn't know if she had listened to her, and sighed lowly.
When Rong Ruo stepped in, he couldn't help but turn his head and look: "Does the crown princess want to wait here, it is estimated that it will take a lot of time, come back tomorrow morning." β
Lu Siming was stunned: "It takes so long?" β
"Well, almost."
"I'll wait here." Lu Siming's weak face flashed with firmness: "No matter how long." β
Rong Ruo didn't say more: "Okay." I couldn't help but look at her again, it seemed that the relationship between the crown princess and the crown prince was deep.
*
Just as Rong Ruo's figure was about to disappear at the entrance, a powerful voice outside the door said, "Wait a minute." β
Lu Siming was familiar with this voice, and immediately greeted him.
Rong Ruo stopped and frowned.
Concubine Lin walked in and looked at Rong Ruo, with an aggressive momentum: "This palace asks you, since you are detoxifying the crown prince, why do you need so many short knives." β
Rong Ruo's gaze swept to the tea maid, and the other party shrank for a moment.
"Please forgive Concubine Lin, this is my healing method, and it is inconvenient to tell you." Rong Ruo responded calmly.
Concubine Lin was still not at ease: "You have to make it clear before you can go in." β
Rong Ruodu was a little helpless, she really couldn't say anything about this, did she want to tell Concubine Lin that she wanted to open your son's stomach, then she must not faint in fright.
Rong Ruo pondered his words for a moment and said, "Concubine Lin, please believe that I will definitely save the prince." β
Concubine Lin said resolutely: "No, it's about the prince's comfort, and this palace can't help you." β
For a while, there was a stalemate.
Lu Siming retreated to the back and whispered a few words to her personal maid, but the other party nodded and retreated.
*
After a stick of incense, the lights are lit one after another, and the whole palace is covered with dim yellow palace lights.
Concubine Lin still didn't let Rong Ruo in, according to Rong Ruo's previous temper, it is estimated that she would have left a long time ago. But the situation is different at the moment, and she doesn't want to involve Mu Beichen. Although that man didn't have much to do with her, he was implicated after all now. In fact, Rong Ruo felt that if she wanted to leave the palace safely, she had to ask Mu Beichen for help.
It's only been a few days, and Rong Ruo doesn't know how he got to this dilemma.
Rong Ruo raised her eyebrows, her beautiful face was a little cold, making her temperament show another kind of Tianshan Snow Lotus-like nobility and inviolability, she pursed her red lips and said, "Concubine Lin, how can I reassure you." β
Concubine Lin stared at Rong Ruo with sharp eyes, raised two fingers and beckoned, and the palace maid bowed and walked out of the door.
After a while, the palace maid returned, and at the same time brought a man in the prime of life.
"Liu Xiang of Tai Hospital participated in Concubine Lin's mother." When the man saluted, Rong Ruo saw the medicine box he was carrying in his hand.
Concubine Lin nodded with her chin and asked people to get up: "You can go in later, and watch her detoxify the prince." β
Liu Xiang lowered his head and ordered: "Yes, Niangniang." β
Rong Ruo frowned, she asked Jiang Cheng to help her, but she didn't want people from the hospital to interfere, not to mention that Concubine Lin specially called over.
"Concubine Lin, I'm not used to having strangers next to me when I see a doctor." Rong Ruo's voice was as cool as water.
Concubine Lin half-narrowed her eyes and glanced at her.
Lu Siming twisted his fingers with his hands and looked in the direction of the door several times.
Concubine Lin's personal maids, Chun Jiao and Dong Lai, have served for many years, and they are the best at figuring out their minds, and they only need Concubine Lin to know what she wants them to do.
So after receiving a look from Concubine Lin, Chun Yan raised her chin and stood up with a proud face, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, but there was no politeness in her eyes: "Miss Rong, Imperial Doctor Liu is one of the best doctors in the Tai Hospital, and the slave believes that with him, even if Miss Rong makes a mistake in the detoxification process, there is also Mrs. Liu's medical care." β
The most important thing is that Imperial Physician Liu is Concubine Lin's person, and he will definitely prevent Rong Ruo from doing anything to harm the prince.
Rong Ruo's dark eyes were slightly rippling, and he only smiled lightly: "Since he is the best doctor, it is better to let Imperial Doctor Liu detoxify the prince alone." β
"You ......" Chun Yan suddenly lost his words.
I hated in my heart - if the people in the Tai Hospital have a way to detoxify, they will still need to look for you.
Rong Ruo looked at Concubine Lin calmly: "Concubine Lin, I just said that it's okay to let me detoxify, but I don't need any help, if you don't trust me, then I can't do anything." β
Probably because he had been entangled outside for too long, Jiang Cheng had prepared everything for a long time, and he didn't see Rong Ruo come in, and he heard the sound of talking outside, he waited and waited, and finally couldn't sit still, so he came out to take a look.
The candle flame lit up the hall, Jiang Cheng was startled by this battle, and then immediately reined in his panic, looked at Rong Ruo with a puzzled gaze, and asked with his eyes.
Concubine Lin suddenly saw someone coming out of the prince's room, still a strange man, and seeing that the dress was not from the palace, she said angrily: "Who is this person, who brought it in." β
Rong Ruo gave Jiang Cheng a reassuring look, and replied to Concubine Lin: "He was invited by me to help me treat my illness together." β
Chun Jiao made Rong Ruo choke just now, and immediately snorted coldly at this moment: "Didn't Miss Rong just say that she didn't like to have others next to her when she was treating?" β
Rong Ruo didn't like the domineering appearance of this maid, and her voice was a little colder: "Yes, but he is my friend, not an outsider." β
Jiang Cheng was a little surprised when he heard this, and then a trace of joy rose in his eyes, and he was happy that Rong Ruo said that he was not an outsider.
At this moment, the yellow light of the palace lamp shone on her thin shoulders, making her face as smooth as jade, with a slight pink, so gorgeous that people dare not look at it directly.
Jiang Cheng felt that his heart skipped uncontrollably twice, and when he made eye contact with Rong Ruo, he gave each other a subtle smile at the same time.
Rong Ruo said this, but she didn't think much about it, she did regard Jiang Cheng as a friend, and she also hoped to get his help this time, so she had to talk to him.
Concubine Lin stood up, the noble momentum of her whole body invisibly raised her figure, with a strong smell of scrutiny, which made Jiang Cheng secretly frightened, he intuitively knew which lady in the palace was this.
"A commoner, also dedicated to the son of the palace to see a doctor?"
Although Jiang Cheng is an ordinary doctor, he has another style, after he was shocked, he restrained his expression, and did not hurry to give Concubine Lin a salute, he had heard that this was the prince's mother.
Rong Ruo twisted his eyebrows, lowered his eyes and said: "Concubine Lin Niangniang, his name is Jiangcheng, in Yun County, everyone calls him Jiang Shenyi, King Jing should know." β
At this time, Rong Ruo had to move out of Mu Beichen again, and she didn't want to be entangled with Concubine Lin anymore.
However, in Concubine Lin's ears, there was another understanding, she rolled her eyes, and said, "So, this is also King Jing's person?" β
Rong Ruo stared at her beautiful eyes, not knowing how Concubine Lin turned here.
At this time, there were a lot of footsteps outside, and there were quite a few people listening, and when they got closer, another shrill voice shouted: "The emperor has arrived-"
Everyone in the room was shocked and rushed to the door.
Lu Siming's eyes flashed with panic, she obviously asked the palace maid to invite King Jing over, how did she alarm the emperor.
The bright yellow tall figure stepped in first, Rong Ruo stood behind everyone, and glanced at Jiang Cheng, the eyes of the two people were also full of excitement.
Rong Ruo thought that it was the first time she saw the living emperor, and over the shoulders of a palace maid in front of her, she saw that the emperor was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a long and lofty instrument, but the corners of his eyes were dyed with some traces of time, and he worked hard day and night, and his face was a little tired.
Unlike Rong Ruo, Jiang Cheng was always a little surprised when he saw the emperor for the first time as a commoner, but his restrained and gentle temperament cleaned up this emotion very well, and just stood quietly at the back, smiling and staring at the Son of Heaven who was admired by thousands of people.
The prosperity of the Jokhang era is inseparable from the hard work of today's son, and the people praise the emperor for his wisdom and wisdom, and he is a good emperor praised by everyone in the world.
Therefore, Jiang Cheng, as a member of this, also has some admiration.
The emperor approached the inner room, everyone knelt down, he glanced at it roughly, sat on the main seat, and raised his hand: "Get up." β
The sound was silent, but the pressure inside was enough to hold everyone's breath.
Rong Ruo glanced to the side, she had just noticed that it was Mu Beichen who came in behind the emperor.
At this moment, Mu Beichen still had an expressionless face, there was no fluctuation in his eyes, and he didn't look at Rong Ruo.
Emperor Mu Chu casually put a hand on the table, looking at the lazy posture, but still giving people a deterrent that cannot be ignored, the unfathomable eyes swept over, and wherever the eyes touched, they couldn't help but hang their heads, as if they couldn't bear his attention.
Concubine Lin blessed the blessing gift, poured a cup of tea for Emperor Mu Chu and handed it over: "Your Majesty, why are you here." β
Mu Chu pushed away the upper layer of tea foam with a tea lid, and said in a deep voice: "I heard that Jingyu's poison can be cured, I came over to take a look." β
Above the tea bowl, Mu Chu looked at the two people in the field who were strange to him with a pair of sharp eyes, and after taking turns, he stopped at Rong Ruo: "Beichen, this is the fiancΓ©e you brought back?" β
Mu Beichen's voice was indifferent, and his tone was calm: "Yes, father, she can detoxify the imperial brother." β
Keep it simple and clear, and focus only on the main points.
Mu Chu bowed his head and didn't speak, but the meaning of the look in his eyes was very strong, but it made people feel a kind of pressure invisibly.
Rong Ruo stepped forward, the candle flame shone into her eyes, making her pupils more crystalline, her eyes were calm, and she said, "Your Majesty, please give me one night, I will help the prince." β
Concubine Lin frowned: "In front of the emperor, you must not be presumptuous!" β
Mu Chu raised his right hand and waved: "It's okay." β
Living to his age, a pair of eyes can see the character of the other party, this woman is not arrogant or impatient, looks gentle, but the stubbornness in her eyes cannot be ignored, and she has a dusty temperament, he knows that the little woman opposite is not simple.
