Chapter 419: News
Chen Danzhu walked around the cell, anxious and uneasy.
Everything has changed, the crown prince's assassination of the six princes has become an open killing, and Princess Jin Yao may have to go to make peace.
It's ridiculous.
She stood on the edge of the cell, looked out, couldn't help shaking the door, the door was locked with iron chains, when Aji or Princess Jin Yao came, the eunuch guarding the cell would open the door, so if she wanted to go out, would she open the door?
Hearing the sound of the chains, a eunuch looked over from a distance, and without waiting for Chen Danzhu to speak, he retracted his head and ran away.
"Hey." Chen Danzhu shouted angrily, "What are you running, I haven't said anything yet." β
It seems that he still looks like he is in prison, and he can't go out casually.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Aji to come over and tell her the good news: "Your Majesty is awake and can speak." β
Princess Jin Yao also came in a hurry, holding Chen Danzhu's hand and laughing and crying: "My father is awake and can speak, although it is very difficult to speak, very little." β
Chen Danzhu shook hands with her and rejoiced: "That's getting better, it will get better and better." β
Princess Jin Yao nodded: "Yes, so don't worry, although I haven't told my father about this yet, when my father is better, if my father knows, he will never let me go and kiss." β
Chen Danzhu has no doubt about this, although the emperor has such and such shortcomings, he is by no means a cowardly emperor.
Princess Jin Yao held her hand: "You don't have to worry about it, when your father improves, the trouble between the sixth brother and you will definitely be solved." β
This matter should not be as simple as King Xiliang, but, as long as the emperor can be sober, can listen to people, and can let her speak, there will be a chance, Chen Danzhu nodded to Princess Jin Yao: "It will be, Jin Yao, your sixth brother he-"
"My sixth brother will be fine." Princess Jin Yao said, "I still have to take care of my father, you can wait with peace of mind." β
After that, he left in a hurry.
Actually, she wanted to ask about Chu Yurong, Princess Jin Yao and Chu Yurong have had a good relationship since childhood, do you know something, but, looking at Princess Jin Yao who left quickly, the princess now only has His Majesty in her heart, Chen Danzhu can only give up, so wait a little longer.
When the emperor gets better, it will be clear what is going on.
However, is it really a good thing for Chu Yurong that the emperor is getting better?
Chen Danzhu sat in the cell and sighed softly.
The news of the emperor's improvement also spread quickly, from the emperor waking up, to the emperor being able to speak, a few days later in the tea shed under the peach blossom mountain, it has been spread that the emperor can go to court.
"I know that Your Majesty will be fine, and the national teacher has made a grand wish to retreat and worship the Buddha for 180 days."
"It has nothing to do with the national teacher, it's the magic doctor that Marquis Zhou found from the people."
"I'll just wait and see how Your Majesty teaches the people of Xiliang."
The tea shed was full of laughter and laughter, and the guests sitting at a table inside listened to it with great taste, not only for the second pot of tea, but also for the most expensive plate of sweet fruits.
The gloomy face of the tea seller showed a smile when the sweet fruit bowl was delivered.
"Here are the fruits picked from the Peach Blossom Mountain, ripe today, picked today, not too early or late, just right." She said with a smile.
The guest next to him heard it and sighed: "Grandma, Chen Danzhu has poisoned the emperor, and the things in Peach Blossom Mountain can still be eaten." β
The tea seller's face suddenly sank like the bottom of a pot: "This thing is born to grow, what does it have to do with Chen Danzhu." β
"Chen Danzhu's family." The guest pouted.
The tea seller pointed to the teapot: "This water is also from Chen Danzhu's family, you drank it today, and the old woman will bury you." β
The guest shrank his head: "Just kidding, what is Grandma doing so fiercely." "I didn't throw down the tea and left.
The other guests laughed and scolded him for deserving it, "Don't make this joke with Grandma." "Don't mention Chen Danzhu to Grandma, Grandma will be angry." "Hey, Chen Danzhu has committed this kind of big crime, and Grandma is also implicated, right?" "Look at this business - Grandma's business is still very good."
The tea seller ignored the jokes of these people, and turned her head to see the guests at the table here, the young scholar had already picked up a red mountain fruit and ate it, and his lips seemed to have turned into red fruits, fresh and tender.
"It's delicious." He exclaimed, "It's really worth the most expensive price." β
The tea seller showed a smile again: "It's still a scholar who has a vision." β
Chu Yurong, a scholar, praised again: "Peach Blossom Mountain is really outstanding, and even the fruits are delicious." β
The tea seller was even happier and lowered her voice: "Scholar, you are going to participate in the imperial examination this year, right?" Do you know that this exam was also started because of Chen Danzhu, who lived on this Peach Blossom Mountain? β
Chu Yurong's eyebrows and eyes also softened: "Yes, Miss Danzhu has made great contributions to the world's scholars." β
The tea seller sighed: "Yes, yes, at the beginning, some scholars came to the mountain to send paintings to Miss Danzhu to thank you, you scholars, your hearts are like mirrors." Saying that, he called Ah Hua, "Send another plate of pumpkin seeds, and don't charge money." β
The pumpkin seeds were placed on the table, Wang Xiantan grabbed a handful, and then looked at the tea seller who was squatting in the stove and seemed to wipe her eyes and tears: "Amazing, relying on your mouth, you can cheat and eat and drink." β
Chu Yurong said: "That's Miss Danzhu. β
The three sentences did not leave Miss Danzhu, Wang Xian was tired of listening to it, and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, just leave Miss Danzhu alone." β
There were two tables of attendants beside them, pretending to be tea customers, separating the others, and the other people in the tea shed were also talking and laughing and noisy, and no one paid attention to this side.
Wang Xian whispered while eating melon seeds: "Your Majesty is getting better, it's not a good thing for you, the matter has come to this point, and the water that was spilled out of the words can't be recovered." β
Chu Yurong said: "Send my order arrow back to Xijing." β
"What? Bring the people over there? Wang Xian said, "Do you want to take someone into the imperial city?" β
Chu Yurong smiled: "Wouldn't that be exactly what others want?" The order arrow is so that they can mobilize more people in Xijing. β
Wang Xian sighed twice: "Are you going to fight Xiliang?" Others will not give you this opportunity, the crown prince did not cut off the head of the Xiliang envoy in the court, and he will not be in the future, Your Majesty, even if Your Majesty gets better, you will save face for his beloved eldest son-"
"Your Majesty will not get better." Chu Yurong interrupted him, lowered his eyes and said, "It's better to get better." β
His Majesty's illness is manipulated by others, and the ups and downs of tossing and turning are by no means to make His Majesty confused and sick, but clearly to manipulate people's hearts.
What Wang Xian was about to say, the horse's hooves sounded sharply on the road outside the tea shed, accompanied by the sound of whips, the people on the road hurriedly avoided it, and a team of people and horses galloped past in the dust.
They did not wear military uniforms, and they looked like ordinary people, but they carried weapons and held the order flag that only officers and soldiers could have, and their identity was self-evident.
"It's the man who escorted the divine doctor out of Beijing before." Wang Xian recognized it, and then looked at the entourage on the table next to him, "Go and ask for news." β
Dr. Hu went out of Beijing quietly to hide his whereabouts, but of course he couldn't hide it from them, so he also sent someone to follow him and keep an eye on him.
The attendant responded by picking up the hat and putting it on his head and hurried away.
......
......
"His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince."
The emperor's bedroom was disturbed by the urgent sound, the prince stood up, and Princess Jin Yao, Concubine Xu and others, who were guarding in front of the emperor, also looked out.
The Fuqing eunuch stumbled in, and Putong knelt in front of the prince.
"Your Highness, it's not good, Dr. Hu is on the way, because he fell off the cliff because of a startled horse."
Hearing this, the emperor, who was being fed medicine by Princess Jin Yao, instantly stared at him, didn't take a breath, and fainted.
The medicine bowl in Princess Jin Yao's hand fell to the ground and shattered in response.
"Your Majestyβ"
The screams were instantaneous, and the roof of the dormitory was about to be torn off.
Oh my God-
Gloomy clouds shrouded the imperial city, and more than a dozen courtiers hurried straight to the emperor's bedroom.
There were guards all over the emperor's bedroom, the eunuchs and palace maids hung their heads and stood solemnly, and there was a eunuch kneeling in front of the palace, slapping himself in the face one by one, his face was swollen, and his mouth and nose were bleeding - Rao is so, everyone still recognizes it at a glance, it is Fuqing.
Fuqing is the prince's great eunuch, and this is the first time he has seen him so embarrassed.
"Fuqing shouted in front of the emperor that Dr. Hu had an accident, and His Majesty fainted." The official on duty here knew the details and explained to everyone in a low voice.
The ministers immediately hated, "It should be beaten!" β
It's not an exaggeration to die!
Fuqing, as a person beside the prince, how could he be so reckless!
"Oh, it's scary." The official on duty was a little sympathetic, and when he heard Fuqing shouting that sentence, he almost lost his voice, thinking that when the princes and kings led their troops to besiege Xijing, he was not afraid.
The emperor was about to be cured, but the doctor died suddenly, which is really scary.
The officials weighed on the boulder and dragged their feet into the dormitory.
The palace was in a mess, the concubines and princesses were all kneeling outside and crying, the prince didn't stop drinking this time, standing in the inner room with a pale face, and Zhang Yuanju took the imperial doctors to gather in front of the dragon bed.
"Your Highness." The old minister at the head stepped forward and called, "How is Your Majesty?" β
The prince looked at him: "It's all my fault, I should, go in person, even if it's me who surprises the horse." β
The ministers looked at the prince's lost soul and incoherent speech, and they were sad and anxious, "Your Highness, you are sober!" β
As they spoke, Zhang Yuan called out: "Your Majesty is awake." β
As soon as these words came out, everyone was overjoyed, and rushed to the bedside, with the prince at the forefront.
"Father." The prince fell to his knees beside the bed and cried out with tears in his eyes.
The emperor opened his eyes, looked at him with a blank look, opened his mouth, but could not make a sound as before.
But this is much better than expected, at least he is still alive, and everyone has tears in his eyes to call His Majesty, "It's good to wake up." β
The emperor didn't wake up long, stared at the crown prince for a while, and then closed his eyes.
The prince called the imperial doctor again.
Zhang Yuanju reassured: "It's okay, Your Majesty is asleep." β
Everyone calmed down for a while, and surrounded Zhang Yuanju and asked His Majesty softly.
Although Zhang Yuanju seemed to be as calm as before, it was difficult to hide the sadness in his eyes: "Your Majesty is okay for the time being, but if there is no medicine from Dr. Hu, I am only afraid-"
Yes, if the doctors could treat it, there would be no need for Dr. Hu before.
"Didn't Dr. Hu leave a prescription?" Everyone asked.
Zhang Yuanju smiled bitterly: "Dr. Hu said that it was an ancestral secret recipe, which was passed on to men but not women, and he could treat His Majesty, but he refused to give the secret recipe alive or deadββ"
At that time, Dr. Hu successfully cured His Majesty, and everyone would not persecute him, and no one thought that he would have an accident.
This is reallyβthe ministers sighed, but now they can't just sigh.
"Your Highness." Everyone looked at the crown prince, "You have to cheer up, Your Majesty is already like this." β
The crown prince knelt beside the bed and held the emperor's hand, and said slowly: "Lone knows." He didn't look back and took a deep breath, "Jin Zhong." β
Eunuch Jinzhong answered by the bedside.
"Send someone to investigate the incident of Dr. Hu's horse falling off the cliff, and Dr. Hu's body will be found."
After the accident, the soldiers came to report as soon as possible, the cliff was deep and steep, and the body of Dr. Hu had not been found - but such a cliff, there was little life if it fell.
The eunuch Jinzhong responded that the ministers understood what the prince meant, Dr. Hu was so important, his deeds were so secret, and he was surrounded by the emperor's secret guard, and he was able to fall off the cliff in shock, which was definitely not an accident.
"Then send someone to Dr. Hu's house, ask the neighbors, find the medicinal materials on the mountain, and the secret recipes are all thought up by people, and when you get the medicinal materials, the hospital will try them one by one."
Eunuch Jinzhong responded again, and Judge Zhang also bowed his head to listen to the order.
"Ladies and gentlemen." The crown prince took a deep breath again, "Prepare to go to court." β
Throwing down the sleeping emperor on the dragon bed, he said that he would go to the court, and the ministers did not have the slightest dissatisfaction, but were relieved and admired.
"Your Highness is brave." They saluted.
For the emperor to stabilize the court and stabilize Daxia, this is what the prince should do in the face of crisis.
The crown prince still turned his back to everyone, looked at the emperor intently, seemed to linger, and buried his head in the emperor's hands.
Lying down for so long, the emperor's hands were a little thin, and he couldn't stop the prince's face, nor did he stop the corners of his mouth.
A smile flashed, and the crown prince raised his head to look at the emperor and whispered, "Father, you are recuperating well, and your son will come to accompany you later." β
After that, he got up and strode out, the courtiers got out of the way, the concubines and princesses outside stopped crying, and the princes also looked over.
"You take care of your father." The prince said.
The princes responded and watched the prince walk out surrounded by courtiers.
The dormitory was still quiet, and everyone seemed to have forgotten to cry.
Now, it's useless to cry.
The emperor has really reached the limit this time, and Dr. Hu, who can cure the emperor, has been taken away by heaven.
