Chapter 213: Stealing Food
"The son of the world is dying."
Mr. Ping's words exploded on Wei Yao's head like thunder. He was skeptical of Imperial Physician Li's words, and Mr. Ping also said the same, and Wei Yao had to believe it.
I thought that Wei Huai'an, who had been tormented by illness for nearly 20 years, would live a safe and sound life, but I didn't expect that he still couldn't escape the fate of his untimely death.
Wei Yao regrets this! knew that today, why did he agree to the emperor's marriage, and poisoned Wei Huai'an with his own hands...... Poisoned? Poison? Wei Yao is like a basin of cold water empowerment. The poison was bought by Wei Yao's relatives on the black market, is there something wrong with the poison?
Wei Yao was shocked, called his relatives, and ordered him to quickly arrest the medicine seller, and he wanted to interrogate him personally.
It didn't take long for the relatives to bring back the medicine seller, lock him up in a small room where no one lived, and torture him. But I was scared and scared, and the drug seller insisted that he was selling real medicine.
"Uncle, this medicine is really true...... Though...... Although I can't see the light of day with this medicine, the business is also good. I'm fooling around with fake nonsense, this ...... Isn't that ruining my own business? The sore tooth of the counterfeit medicine grinned and defended.
When Wei Yao heard this, he asked his cronies to take out the ten-incense soft rice that he had found from the medicine seller, pinch his mouth, and pour it down. Whether the medicine is real or not, you can find out the authenticity by trying it yourself with the person who sells the medicine.
……
Imperial Physician Li returned to the palace to resume his life and told the emperor that Wei Huai'an had not had many days. The emperor was shocked. A few days ago, Wei Huai'an still came to him alive and asked for a complaint, how could he be sure that his relatives would not work and he would die?
The emperor was skeptical, stared at Imperial Physician Li and confirmed again: "What disease is so fast?" ”
Imperial Physician Li replied: "It should be a recurrence of the old disease, and the courtier's medical skills are unbearable, and there is nothing he can do." ”
The emperor waved him back. Slumped on the dragon chair.
Wei Huai'an is the life/root of the eldest princess, Wei Huai'an is here, the eldest princess is here, Wei Huai'an is dead, and the eldest princess is afraid that she will not live long.
The emperor regretted that he forcibly gave Wei Huai'an a marriage at this time, if it were not for his holy will, Wei Yao would not have locked Wei Huai'an at home, and I heard that he also poured medicine...... Hey, how can you say this, doesn't this mean that he indirectly harmed Wei Huai'an's life and the eldest princess's life?
The emperor's face was gloomy. Gonggong An saw it in his eyes, and he stepped forward to comfort: "Wei Shizi is already weak, although it has been better in the past few years, but in the end, the foundation is poor, the emperor should not be too sad." ”
The emperor looked up at him and sighed: "You go and bring my box of blood ginseng and send it to Weiwuhou, I hope you can keep that child for a few more days." ”
Gonggong An promised to retreat, and the emperor spoke again: "Also, pass on my message to cancel the family affair between Wei Huaian and Hai Rong'er." ”
……
Wei Huai'an's courtyard, the guards have been withdrawn, in order to take care of Wei Huai'an, Wei Yao put Chen Sheng back by Wei Huai'an's side, and Feishu also recruited Su Han, who was deliberately transferred thousands of miles away.
It was a fuss, and it was evening. Pomegranate and Xichun sneaked into Wei Huai'an's house again.
Wei Huai'an had already gotten up when he heard the voice: "I'm starving, do you want to bring food?" ”
Xichun closed the door with a smile: "Bring it, today I went to Julongzhai with Pomegranate to ask for two dishes, as well as snacks from Wufangzhai." I just warmed it up for you, and it's just right to eat it now. ”
Xichun put down the food box in his hand and put the dishes on the table.
"Chen Sheng, antidote!"
Wei Huai had been a patient for a few days, and his bones were already so tired that his bones were sore. Chen Sheng took the antidote and handed it to him, and then took the teacup from Xichun's hand and asked him to take the medicine.
Wei Huai'an sat on the edge of the bed for a moment before getting up and getting out of bed. After moving his muscles, he sat down at the table and picked up chopsticks and ate them.
In the past few days, although he has been hit by ten incense soft tendons, his whole body is weak and he can't walk, but the hunger strike is fake.
During the day, there was no one in the house, and under Wei Huai'an's bedside pillow was a snack secretly sent to him by Pomegranate. Every night, Pomegranate would also secretly bring the vegetables packed back from outside to Wei Huai'an to eat.
As for Imperial Physician Li saying that he was dying, it was Wei Huai'an who deliberately sealed his seven meridians and eight veins, coupled with the effect of the ten incense soft tendons, giving them the illusion that they were terminally ill.
"Take the antidote now, isn't the prince afraid that the prince will bring someone again?" Xichun was a little worried.
Wei Huaian smiled evilly while eating: "Don't worry, Daddy won't bring anyone else after today's play." ”
"Shizi, are you pretending too much today? Master Hou won't think you're really bad, right? If Hou Ye really ...... again" Pomegranate also felt that the performance was a little too much, Hou Ye was secondary, the eldest princess was so old, and she was scared when she heard it.
"Don't worry, since I was born, everyone thinks that I won't live long, I grew up in a medicine jar, every year there are a few doctors who say that I can't live for three months, and even after seeing me, I asked my family to prepare for me. For the news that I am going to die of illness, grandmother and daddy, mother is used to it, and it will not be too hard. ”
When Wei Huai'an said that he finally lived so big, he seemed to be telling someone else's story. But Pomegranate and Xichun felt pity in their hearts, such a wealthy son, who was born rich, was originally a life of fine clothes and food, but he had to face life and death every day, which was worse than the fact that they were sold since childhood.
"Pomegranate, how is your young lady?" Seeing that the girls didn't speak, Wei Huai'an asked while eating.
"I went there yesterday, and Miss is fine, but I can't walk more. I'm afraid that the injuries on the young lady's body will have to be recuperated for a while before they can recover. Pomegranate replied to him.
When Wei Huaian heard this, he stopped the chopsticks in his hand, looked up and asked Chen Sheng, "What news is there in the palace?" ”
Lord Hai listened to the rumors outside and entered the palace to face the saint, and begged the emperor to cancel the marriage contract between Miss Hai and the prince. The emperor didn't agree, but he didn't say he didn't agree. ”
"That's why I sent Imperial Doctor Li to find out." Wei Huai'an took the words, cold! "What about the prince?"
"The crown prince is still grounded, but in a few days, several envoys from neighboring countries will enter Beijing, I am afraid that the emperor will let the prince out of the abbot ceremony."
Envoys from neighboring countries entering Beijing?
"Which neighbor?"
"An Pingguo. I heard that the prince and princess of Anping came to visit the emperor with a delegation. ”
An Pingguo? Wei Huai'an's eyes narrowed slightly, and an idea instantly formed in his mind.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, and the news of Wei Huai'an's imminent death reached the ears of the eldest princess before it was overnight.
The eldest princess fainted several times with grief, and finally held on to Wei Huai'an's house.
In the room, Wei Huai'an was lying on the bed, his eyes closed, and there was still a grease stain on the corner of his mouth. The food on the table was piled up in a haphazard box, and the pomegranate carried it in his hand and hid it behind him. Xichun didn't know where to hide a bag of dim sum, so she was in a hurry and threw it under the bed.
The eldest princess got off the soft sedan chair at the door and was carried into the house, and saw Wei Huai'an from afar, and the eldest princess cried before she arrived:
"My grandson...... Why are you so miserable, it's only been a few years, and you're leaving me again...... It's all your uncompetitive daddy, who has to give you some medicine to control you...... It's okay now, my life is gone......"
The eldest princess was helped to the bedside, and Wei Yao, who came later, looked aggrieved.
The eldest princess also knew about taking the medicine in advance, and besides, the cup containing the medicine was still brought to Wei Huai'an by the eldest princess, and now it depends on him alone. But Wei Yao only dared to say this in his heart, arguing with the eldest princess, he didn't dare.
The eldest princess cried for a long time, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and was sent back by Mrs. Hou.
Wei Yao swept under the bed with a dark face and looked at Chen Sheng unhappily: "The prince is sick, and the house is not cleaned up?" ”
Chen Sheng was a little stunned, but when he followed Wei Yao's gaze and looked at the paper bag under the bed, he secretly complained in his heart.
"It's the negligence of the subordinates, and the subordinates will ask someone to clean it up after a while."
Wei Yao stared at Pomegranate and Xichun again and asked, "It's so late, what are you doing in the Shizi's room when you don't stay in the house?" ”
Xichun lowered his head and didn't dare to reply. Pomegranate didn't care if he was the Hou Ye or not, he stretched out his hand, and handed the food box to Wei Yao, with a serious expression:
"Back to Master Hou, I heard that the prince hadn't eaten for several days, so I made some meals and brought them to the prince. I thought that the prince could take a bite. Can...... Ay! ”
Pomegranate's expression of pity made Wei Yao feel a little more guilty.
Wei Yao glanced at the food box in Pomegranate's hand, and walked out of the room with heavy steps. Before he walked out of the courtyard, Wei Yao stretched out his hand to summon his relatives who were waiting at the gate of the courtyard.
"How's it going?" The one who was drugged and sold counterfeit medicine.
"Back to the waiting master, I just ate and fell asleep. His subordinates sent someone to watch it. Wei Yao nodded.
"Take a good look, and tell me immediately if there is anything unusual."
"Yes."
Wei Yao left, and Chen Sheng hurriedly leaned down and picked up the dim sum that Xichun threw under the bed.
Wei Huai'an also sat up from the bed, reached out and snatched the snack in Chen Sheng's hand, took out a piece and put it in his mouth, and hid the rest under the pillow. Before he could swallow the snack in his mouth, Wei Yao turned around and walked back.
"Chen Sheng, this is for the prince, drink a bowl in the morning and evening."
Wei Yao put a long brocade box that he had been holding in his hand on the table, glanced at Wei Huai'an on the bed, sighed and turned to leave.
Chen Sheng followed behind, watching Wei Yao go away before running back again.
"Gone?" Pomegranate sticks out her head and looks out.
"Gone." Chen Sheng guarded the door and whispered back to her.
Wei Huai'an got up and got out of bed, picked up the box from the table, opened it and looked at it, happy.
I saw a blood ginseng more than half a meter long lying in the box, this blood ginseng taproot is thick, and it looks like it is very old, it should be no less than a thousand years.
"You guys go back first, it's going to be suspicious if you stay here for a long time."
Wei Huai'an couldn't hold back and wanted to go out, so he hurriedly sent Pomegranate and Xichun away.
Pomegranate nodded and pulled Xichun back to his yard.
……
Su Muling was staring at the scar on her face in front of the dresser, and a strange sound came from the back window of the bedroom.
Su Muling lifted his heart, took out the dagger from his body, and hid behind the wardrobe next to the window.
She looked over, only to see that the window was gently opened, and a long leg reached into the window, Su Muling nervously clenched the dagger and moved half a step forward.
The people outside the window seemed to hear something, and the window was lifted wider, revealing the whole face.
