Tai Chi Temple.

The emperor leaned on the couch, looking tired.

He forcibly suppressed the cough that came up, looked at his son and asked, "Shiro, are you short of money?" ”

As soon as Chu Yi stood still, he heard his father say this, and his phoenix eyes were slightly stunned.

"The sons are not short of money, why does my father ask so?"

"Ahem...... Since you are not short of money, why did the dragon and phoenix jade I gave you rent to the county lord of Anding? Even the guards around you have been sold out for a thousand silver a month? ”

Rent, Property......

When Chu Yi heard this, his eyes were slightly dark, and he immediately understood who it was from.

The corners of his forehead were tense, but he lifted his robe and knelt down and replied: "The county lord of Anding is young, she doesn't understand many things, and there may be something wrong with her words, and I ask my father not to blame her." ”

The emperor looked at his son, who was kneeling on the ground to excuse the little girl, and his brows were even more tired.

He coughed a few times and asked softly, "Do you really want to marry her as a princess?" If you really like her, I decreed that she be given the position of a side concubine, and the position of Princess Yi is difficult to do with her uprightness. ”

Chu Yi lowered his eyes and said expressionlessly: "Erchen is happy and quiet, and he has never cared about the affairs of men and women. Only one woman in the back house of King Yi's mansion is enough, and any more will be too noisy. Miss Shen has repeatedly saved her son's life, but her son has nothing to repay, and she can only devote the rest of her life to taking care of her, which is the way of a gentleman. ”

The emperor's eyes were slightly dark.

His bright yellow sleeves flicked, bringing a cough.

"Ahem...... Cough...... You are my most important son, if it is only to repay the favor, you don't have to make a personal promise, I can give her a gold medal to avoid death, and even make her the lord of the county. Your marriage doesn't need to be swayed by affection. ”

In the end, the emperor's tone was a little resolute.

There is a great need to make an immediate decree to give the gold medal for avoiding death and the identity of the county lord.

Chu Yi's heart skipped a few beats for no reason.

The original expressionless face also seemed to have cracks.

"Father." He said urgently: "Erchen wants to marry Miss Shen, not just to repay her kindness. ”

"Oh?" The emperor looked at him like a torch, and his voice was secretly displeased: "It's not just to repay the favor, could it be that there is a personal relationship between you?" ”

The word private love is related to Shen Shu's reputation, Chu Yi almost didn't think about it, so he blurted out: "Between Erchen and Miss Shen, it is innocent and has no selfish feelings." In addition to repaying the favor, the sons were pleased with her, pleased, and asked to marry, that's all. ”

When these words came out, Chu Yi only felt that the tips of his ears were hot, and his heart was like a tea bottle of boiling water, bubbling and bubbling.

The emperor looked at his son silently, saw him looking like he was in love, and then thought of Shen Shu who he had just seen-

The emperor frowned, and suddenly changed his words and asked, "Are you still in good health?" ”

Chu Yi's heart trembled because of the voice he had unintentionally confided just now.

Seeing that his father didn't continue to ask, his eyes were slightly relaxed, and he hurriedly replied: "Thanks to Miss Shen, the poison on Erchen's body has been completely resolved." ”

He looked at the emperor and asked with concern: "I heard that my father was assassinated in the Taiji Hall that night, how is my father's body?" Has the murderer ever been caught? Would you like Miss Shen to help you take a look? ”

When the emperor heard his son's words never leave the girl, and then thought of the events of that night, his face was a little unpleasant.

He commanded in a deep voice: "Since you are in good health, you will be responsible for this matter." ”

Chu Yi lowered his head and said yes, and asked thoughtfully: "When the son-in-law was in a coma, I heard that my father had sealed the Beiya, and now that the son-in-law is back, the Beiya ......."

The emperor covered his lips and coughed lightly, and said coldly: "I received the news of someone poisoning this time. However, the other party still succeeded. It can be seen that in the inner court, there must be people from the other side. Now that you have returned, you will thoroughly investigate the Beiya, and the eunuchs are not allowed to enter the Beiya for half a step. ”

The information implied in these words made Chu Yi's expression froze, and his slightly chaotic mind calmed down instantly.

From thirty years ago, when the first emperor was not dead, Beiya was already a place where eunuchs and shadow guards were divided.

When Chu Yi took over the Beiya, he had the idea of eliminating the eunuchs.

was rejected by his father without thinking.

Now, he didn't expect that because of this assassination, his father finally moved the idea of purging Beiya.

"Who is the one who delivered the news to my father?" Chu Yi asked curiously.

"Ahem...... cough ......" The emperor coughed twice: "It was the news that King Rui overheard outside, and he specially entered the palace to warn me." ”

Chu Yi's eyes were slightly gloomy.

He didn't forget that when he was poisoned in the meditation room of the Great Huguo Temple that night, Chu Zhan also appeared in the meditation room in advance.

Such a two-pronged warning is by no means a coincidence.

"Ahem...... Cough...... Ahem......"

Before Chu Yi could think deeply, he was pulled back to his senses by the emperor's increasingly heavy cough.

He looked at the emperor with concern: "Father, weren't you poisoned that night?" Why is it that you have not seen you for two months, and your body has become so weak? ”

The Emperor waved his hand at him until his cough subsided slightly.

He gasped and said, "The poison of that night is nothing. This time I'm suffering from an old disease. Now...... I'm afraid it will take some effort to recuperate before I can recover my health. ”

When Chu Yi heard this, a trace of doubt crossed his phoenix eyes.

Before he stood alone, if there was a large-scale war, his father would drive the expedition in person, and it could be regarded as a half-life horse.

Chu Yi had never heard of any "old diseases" in his father's body.

Leng Buding, he keenly remembered the hundred herbs that his father sent him to personally lead the shadow guard to Yunjiang to collect.

"My father never told his sons why he asked them to lead people to collect those poisonous weeds. Could it be ...... Those poisonous weeds are related to the old diseases of the father's body? ”

The Emperor breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

"Exactly."

He raised his eyes to look at Chu Yi, and said meaningfully: "Thirty years ago, your imperial grandfather sent my relatives to lead a large army to Yunjiang to sweep the Medicine King Valley. I was accidentally injured by a bat bird, and my body fell into an old disease.

Fortunately, there is still an antidote left by Bai Xin to suppress the poisonous disease, but it is ...... If you want to eradicate it, you still need Yunjiang's Nine Turns Soul Rejuvenation Soup. ”

Yunjiang Nine Turns Soul Rejuvenation Soup.

When Chu Yi heard this name, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly.

Unexpectedly, he remembered the words he had learned from his father-in-law when he was in Yunjiang:

"The former envoy of the Tai Hospital, Zhang Sichun, occasionally got a prescription, which came from Yunjiang, and the name was Jiuzhuan Soul Rejuvenation Soup. Extract a hundred kinds of poisonous herbs in Yunjiang into a bowl of decoction, which can cure a hundred poisons, prolong life, and bring the dead back to life.

It's just that...... You must get a bowl of blood from the descendants of the Medicine King Valley as a medicine guide. However, the Medicine King Valley disappeared thirty years ago, and Doctor Zhang personally came to Yunjiang to look for it, leaving only one sentence 'There is still blood in the Medicine King Valley left in the world', and he did not know what happened. The emperor ordered the old slave to wait here, also to wait for the news of Imperial Doctor Zhang. ”

A bowl of blood from the descendants of the Medicine King Valley.

Chu Yi's heart was cold to the end.

After he woke up, he had already learned from Shadow Six that the will of the Imperial Gift Shen Shu to settle the county lord was before the victory in the first battle of Yunjiang.

originally thought that his father wanted to mention Shen Shu's identity before giving marriage.

But I didn't expect it......

Chu Yi did not shy away from looking at the emperor and asked bluntly: "Could it be that the father and emperor listened to the report that Erchen sent Yingliu back, and guessed that Miss Shen was a descendant of the Medicine King Valley, and for the sake of Yunjiang Nine Turns to Restore the Soul Soup, so he rewarded Miss Shen as the county lord of Anding, and asked Erchen to take her back to Beijing?" ”
