Chapter 37: The Strange Situation in the South
"Come and let me see Xiaobao" Chu Yuchen stepped forward and picked up Xiaobao, squeezing the little third son aside, causing the little third son to pout and be dissatisfied.
Looking at Xiao Bao's flushed face, Chu Yuchen's sword eyebrows frowned, "Why are you still sleeping now?" Only at this time will he feel that the little third son is a little useful.
"Children are like this, they are more sleepy." For this explanation, Chu Yuchen was noncommittal, now that it was almost dusk, it was already past the time to take a nap, Xiaobao was still sleeping deeply, Chu Yuchen always felt that it was not normal, but he couldn't say where it was.
Chu Yuchen hugged Xiaobao for a while, during which his face was gloomy, and even Song Yunshu took the initiative to tell him a joke, when Song Yunshu laughed and couldn't straighten his waist, Chu Yuchen held his face, and even the corners of his lips rose and fell fiercely, and he didn't want to reward Song Yunshu, but saw hostility in his deep and beautiful eyes.
Song Yunshu was confused, "She was fine when she came, and I didn't see anyone provoke her?" Song Yunshu watched Ayu finally let go of Xiaobao who was holding him tightly, got up and left without saying a word, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, looking at her Chu Yuchen's back as he left and muttered to himself.
One day, at the end of the early dynasty, on the way back to Song Yunshu, he bumped into someone who had not appeared for a long time, "National teacher." She hurriedly called out.
It is Qing Han who is obsessed with astronomy and has been studying in retreat all year round.
The clean and bright white delicate robe, the long flowing hair with a delicate jade crown and high bundles, with a gentle and clear temperament, and the facial features kissed by God, all of them do not meet Song Yunshu's aesthetic standards, even compared with the large number of stars on her side.
If it weren't for the fact that he already had Xiaobao, Song Yunshu couldn't wait to chase him down immediately, but... Just when Song Yunshu regretted it, he suddenly remembered that day in the cave, Chu Yuchen was a friend who asked him to help take care of Xiaobao, and Chu Yuchen's friend was not Qing Han! He asked Chu Yuchen to take care of Xiaobao, could it be that he was really him on the night of the Qionglin banquet, and he already knew that Xiaobao was his child?
The more Song Yunshu thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and he couldn't help but step forward and greet him cordially: "How can the national teacher have time to enter the palace?" ”
"Are you looking for the emperor, it just so happens that Song Hanlin is with me?" His voice was like a warm jade, good but not soft, which made Song Yunshu's brain give up thinking, and he directly followed Qing Han and turned back. I didn't remember that she was going to leave the palace just now.
Song Yunshu, who was fascinated, was shocked by an oncoming cold air when he entered the door, and he shuddered smartly, and suddenly woke up. Then she saw Chu Yuchen's cold gaze, she suddenly remembered his angry appearance that night, and subconsciously moved away from Qing Han, and the gaze that fell on her and wanted to skin her alive was lighter.
Song Yunshu thought with annoyance, why did he forget about Chu Yuchen, for the sake of life, it is better to stay away from Qing Han.
"Meet the emperor, long live the emperor." Song Yunshu and Qing Han saluted together.
"No courtesy." The little emperor hurriedly got up and stepped forward, stretched out his hand to help Song Yunshu, but the cold eyes behind him looked at him with a chill on his back, so he had to make a temporary turn and help Qing Han up, and when he turned around, he saw that Song Yunshu had already gotten up by himself, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
"Ahem." When the little emperor heard this reminder, he came to his senses, he forgot that the fierce imperial uncle was also there.
As soon as the little emperor relaxed and lay down on the chair after the morning class, there was a report that King Mu was here. The frightened little emperor's soul was scattered, and he quickly sat up, and heard Chu Yuchen's serious voice, "Your Majesty, the national teacher is on his way here, let him explain to you." ”
It made the little emperor look inexplicable, but Chu Yuchen didn't say it, and he didn't dare to ask.
The silent and depressing atmosphere pressed him and couldn't wait to smear the soles of his feet with oil, but fortunately, it didn't take long for Qing Han to come, and he also brought Song Yunshu who went and returned, not to mention how happy the little emperor was, looking at Song Yunshu's gaze was like seeing a savior.
Chu Yuchen was embarrassed to watch, is he so fierce? But now is not the time to say this, his eyes signal cold.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to tell you." With Song Yunshu, the little emperor was not so cowardly, and stretched out his hand to signal him to say.
"Your Majesty, the ministers look at the celestial phenomena, there is a bad aura in the south that breaks through the stars and envelops half of the south, I am afraid that something is wrong." Qing Han's tone was not hurried or slow, but he could hear a thick seriousness.
"Don't explain it yet." Chu Yuchen said coldly to Song Yunshu, the disgust in his eyes seemed to say, "What are you here for, who asked you to come." ”
Song Yunshu, who was watching, was very unconvinced, and explained to the little emperor in a plain tone angrily: "It is that a certain degree of disaster has occurred in the south, but there is no news from the south, it should be that there are just signs of things, and the problem is not serious." ”
The second half of Song Yunshu's sentence was tentative, wanting to see how much they knew about this matter, or if it was limited to Qing Han's celestial phenomena.
"Hasn't the disaster and famine in the south been rescued by cash-for-work? Could it be that Song Aiqing's method is not good? "The little emperor is puzzled, and it is also Song Yunshu's doubt, isn't there a document that says that the refugees have been pacified and the disaster has passed?
"This time it's different." Chu Yuchen dispelled their doubts, "This king has a subordinate who went to the south to run errands, and found that some people coughed and vomited blood, their faces were sallow, and their lips were purple, and this condition was increasing to a certain extent. Chu Yuchen, who was relentlessly explaining, may have explained in order to increase credibility, "This king has asked the imperial doctor to understand, and this symptom is very likely to be..."
Before he finished his words, Gonggong De pushed the door in, "Your Majesty, the commander of the money outside quickly stepped up and came overnight, saying that there was something important, and 100,000 were in a hurry." ”
Seeing that Chu Yuchen was interrupted, the little emperor who thought that Chu Yuchen was going to be angry was afraid that Gonggong De would be punished, so he hurriedly said, "Come in quickly." Diverted the conversation, so that Chu Yuchen had no chance to play.
Chu Yuchen, who guessed the little emperor's thoughts, had a dark and black face under the mask, was he such a cruel and unreasonable person in his heart?
Several people in the hall looked at each other, as soon as they talked about the south, the southern generals came, and the matter was more serious than they thought.
Duke De received the order, and after a while, a man with bronzed skin and strong skin walked in, with vigorous steps and a lively walk.
"Wechen knocks to see the emperor, King Mu." A strong voice sounded.
"Commander Qian, please get up." The little emperor held his hands in a false position and motioned for him to get up.
"Commander Qian, just say anything!" Hearing Chu Yuchen's words, Qian Shen glanced at Song Yunshu, since he didn't deliberately retreat, he must have a good official position, but he didn't know when he had such a handsome number one person.
The situation is urgent, and Qian Shen can't think about it too much, and when he talks about the situation in the south, just one sentence is like a thunderstorm on the ground, which blows them up.
"There was poisoning in some places in the south, and local doctors could not find out the cause."
"Poisoned?" Chu Yuchen was shocked, it was just poisoning? Then he thought of something, and hurriedly asked, "Can it be contagious?" ”
"Tell King Mu that this poison is not contagious, but it is spreading for unknown reasons." Qian Shen replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, and he didn't understand why Chu Yuchen would suddenly ask like this.
