When Ji Yanning put down his chopsticks, he saw Rong Che frowning.

She looked at Cai at the big table and said with a wry smile: "I really can't eat it, it's not good to eat too much." ”

Rong Che thought for a while and said, "It must be that the cook is not doing well." ”

When Ji Yanning saw his more genuine appearance, he couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "It's good, you yourself think it tastes good, don't you?"

"But you didn't eat much. Rong Che said.

Ji Yanning was helpless: "I'm not a pig, it's normal to eat so much on weekdays." ”

Rong Che looked at Ji Yanning's thin figure and said, "It's okay, I'll let the maid bring the stew later, and you can drink more." ”

Ji Yanning looked resistant, and hurriedly shook his head: "This is not good, I have eaten enough for lunch." ”

Rong Che listened to Ji Yanning's words, but still said lightly: "Lunch is lunch, and this tonic soup is tonic soup, which is different." ”

Ji Yanning gritted his teeth: "Don't." ”

Rong Che coaxed: "Just drink a small bowl." ”

"I can't drink it. Ji Yanning's attitude was resolute, although she also wanted to take care of her body as soon as possible, but she was always asked to eat like this, and her appetite was getting worse and worse.

Seeing her like this, Rong Che said, "Okay, okay, don't drink a bowl, just drink two sips, right?"

Ji Yanning: "......"

What's going on with this child's tone?

It's just that before she could agree, Qiu Lili had already walked in from outside the courtyard and stepped forward to salute.

"This is a letter sent by the envoy of Dayan. Qiu Carp said to Rong Che.

Rong Che stepped forward to take the letter, and another letter fell out of it, but it was written "Princess Changning herself".

Although this letter was addressed to Rong Che, it was for Rong Che to pass it on to Ji Yanning.

Rong Che handed the letter to Ji Yanning and said, "It should be given to you by Beigong Chen." ”

Ji Yanning took the letter and unfolded it.

She had always read the letter at a glance, and it had been a long time since she had read the letter.

It's nothing more than worrying about her, wondering if she's doing well these days, and telling her that these envoys all recognize her, but they don't say anything, but if she asks, the envoys will definitely help.

When Ji Yanning saw this, his eyes were full of smiles.

Rong Che also looked over and asked, "Why is the news so happy?"

"Someone is naturally happy when he thinks about it. Ji Yanning raised his eyebrows and said, "There's nothing to do, it's just a few greetings." ”

Rong Che narrowed Ji Yanning slightly, and said, "I come to see you every day, but I haven't seen you so happy." ”

There was a hint of sourness in his tone.

Ji Yanning smiled and said, "What's the matter, even Beigongchen's vinegar has to be eaten? Don't forget, he now recognizes me as a righteous daughter." ”

Rong Che looked distressed: "Who made you biased? Who knows how popular you would be when you used to." ”

"Actually, I'm not likeable. Ji Yanning said, "Many people think I'm scary. ”

In her previous life, she was the eldest daughter of the Ying clan, and she was very proper in front of people.

It's just that women like her are rarely liked by men, and they prefer the kind of women who are small and dependent on men.

Ji Yanning said: "In the past, when Beigong Chen was a proton in Chang'an, he often came to be with me and Jing Yuan, although it seems that I am taking care of him most of the time, but I know that he has always taken care of me as a sister. ”

Far away from home, I can only treat her as a relative.

Rong Che said again: "What about Jing Yuan?"

Ji Yanning said: "If I hadn't died, I would have married Jing Yuan." However, my grandfather said that the destiny of heaven cannot be violated, and I am destined to have a part with him, and it seems that this is really the case. ”

Rong Che listened to Ji Yanning's words, and his eyes became deeper and deeper.

He held Ji Yanning's hand and said, "Now that you have me, you are my woman, no matter what the reason is in the future, I will not let go, even if it is destiny." ”

Ji Yanning saw that he looked serious, but he laughed.

"I know. ”

How could the man she chose disappoint herself?

These days, Chang'an City is very lively, the prince and the Ministry of Rites, Honglu Temple people received envoys from other countries, and the emperor's situation is getting worse and worse.

The emperor's face is getting worse and worse, obviously he has taken the pill, but it has only been a long time, and this body has become like this.

He didn't dare to look at himself in the mirror, because he was so embarrassed, he really couldn't accept it.

"Xuanchengzi!" the emperor said angrily, "I obviously took the pill, why did I become like this!"

He got angry and smashed all the vases in his hand, and the whole side hall was full of broken porcelain pieces.

The people lowered their heads one after another, not daring to say anything more.

The eunuch beside him said curtly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the Xuan Dao chief is almost here." ”

As soon as these words fell, he heard the news that Xuanchengzi was asking to see him.

The emperor waved his sleeves angrily: "Let him in!"

Xuanchengzi was dressed in a blue-gray Taoist robe, and his hair was tied into the Taoist hat, because of his thin figure, the Taoist robe on his body was a little wide, and he was holding a stalk of Buddha dust in his hand, which looked like a fairy wind and bones.

It's just that his jaws are too narrow, and the corners of his eyes are half-narrowed, and he looks like a rat.

"See Your Majesty. Xuanchengzi stepped forward and saluted.

He looked at the emperor's tired face, and his body seemed to be very weak, a little more serious than the last time he saw him.

His eyes flickered, and he had probably guessed in his heart why the emperor was summoning him.

"Xuanchengzi, I have taken your elixir, but why is it that I have only been like this for less than two months!" the emperor's gaze looked at Xuanchengzi faintly.

Xuanchengzi stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, when you start taking the pill, is there any effect?"

The emperor nodded: "It did work wonders at first, I feel comfortable and strong. ”

Xuanchengzi said again: "That's it, the elixir of the poor Dao is not effective with one pill, and it will also have a certain time limit." ”

"You mean, this elixir can only last for a short period of more than a month?" the emperor asked, his face darkened.

Xuanchengzi's back was a little cold, but his face was not obvious, and he said: "That's true, but there are still a lot of pills in the poor Taoist temple, if the emperor needs it, the ministers should work hard to refine the pills." ”

The emperor's gaze looked straight at Xuanchengzi.

He hesitated.

After all, the imperial doctor also said that taking pills will leave erysipelas in the body, so things like pills should not be eaten too much, and it is best not to use them.

But his body is getting weaker and weaker, and even the quack doctors in the Tai Hospital have no way, he can only think of relying on pills.

I didn't expect that the pill did have some effect, and Xuanchengzi was indeed much better than that group of unreliable quacks.

It's just that this effect has only lasted for more than a month, and it has lost its effect, so if you want to regain your radiant appearance in the future, won't you have to take pills regularly?

It wasn't what he wanted.

Xuanchengzi felt the emperor's gaze, and he spoke again: "Poor Dao will definitely work harder in the future to practice better pills, which can make the effect of the medicine longer." ”

Although the emperor didn't want to take any more pills, he couldn't do anything at all now, and he was already too tired to even go to the early dynasty, not to mention the banquet for the next crown prince's enthronement ceremony, as well as the banquet for envoys from various countries.

If they find out that the emperor has become weak, they are afraid that they will definitely discuss how to attack Great Wei in secret.

This is something he does not want to see.

But the quack doctors in the imperial study, he didn't expect these people to cure his illness in such a short time.

So to recover his body, he could only take the pill again.

Let's deal with this time first.

"You bring the elixir. The Emperor said.

Xuanchengzi bowed his head slightly and said, "When the poor Dao returns to the Taoist temple, I will send five more pills to the emperor." ”

The emperor nodded, looking at Xuanchengzi's mood was also a little complicated, and said, "I will ask the Internal Affairs Office to send the reward to Qingyanguan." ”

Xuanchengzi said: "Being able to share your majesty's worries is a blessing for the poor. ”

The emperor's face was much better.

He has known Xuanchengzi for many years, and this person is far from being as simple as he believes, but he has the ability and is obedient to himself, so it is not wrong for such a person to stay by his side.

As for the pure-hearted abbot of Huguo Temple, he repeatedly persuaded him, as if he had compassion for the people in the world, and he didn't like that kind of person.

Xuanchengzi can hold it in his hands, so he is not afraid that this person will be able to turn the sky upside down, as for the matter of Huguo Temple, he still has doubts.

"The matter of Huguo Temple, but you did it?" the emperor began.

Xuanchengzi said: "Your Majesty, Poor Dao has nothing to do with this matter, and it is impossible to kill Qingxin. ”

The emperor's eyes were looking at Xuanchengzi, trying to see through his thoughts, but he still looked like he was inquiring, as if he was open.

"I'm just asking. The Emperor said.

Xuanchengzi said: "Poor Dao knows that there are a lot of rumors outside, but Poor Dao really has nothing to do with this matter, and he has a clear conscience. ”

He knew that when the abbot of Qingxin died, he was still a little happy, but soon everyone pointed the finger at him.

The funny thing is that Qingxin is dead, what does it have to do with him?

Qingyanguan is not dealing with Huguo Temple, but if they want to kill the abbot of Huguo Temple so silently, they still can't do it.

"By the way, Concubine Su Guifei asked you to give Ying Caiwei the formation before, do you remember?" the emperor suddenly changed the subject.

Hearing Su Guifei's name, Xuanchengzi's eyes moved slightly.

Su Guifei was favored at the beginning, and he was as proud as he wanted, he was naturally careful to please, but now that the second prince died because of rebellion, and Su Guifei also died, he was naturally so interested that he didn't want to mention these interests.

However, when the emperor asked, he still had to answer honestly.
