Chapter IV Duties
Li Chengqian's face was a little solemn, after all, the pain in his left foot had already affected his life and even the throne, although he couldn't see the truth even if he invited many famous doctors, but he didn't think that someone had poisoned him, but he didn't dare to speculate without any clues.
Chengxin looked at Li Chengqian, "It shouldn't be very likely to be poisoned, and I don't know if this disease can be caused, but I know the treatment, I only need His Highness to eat and supplement according to my way, and there is a high probability that the symptoms will be reduced after a month, and it will return to normal within a year." ”
Li Chengqian smiled and nodded heavily, "I have seen countless famous doctors this year, and I have tried more than 100 treatment methods, but I have never seen any good, I am satisfied that if you can really cure my left foot, I will definitely help you get a half-official position." ”
Xiangxin didn't say anything, and continued to be busy with his kebab business, but the little eunuch who was instructed by Li Chengqian to leave just now came back with a booklet, knelt aside and said, "Your Highness, the records of your food and lodging are here." ”
Li Chengqian sat on the stone chair and whispered, "Read." The voice seemed calm, but the trembling left leg seemed to say that his heart was not as calm as it seemed on the outside.
"Ten years of Zhenguan······ Tofu, mutton, 11 years of Zhenguan······ Spinach, salmon······ Crabs, shrimps. The little eunuch read the record on the booklet truthfully, and listened to it with satisfaction, but also made the answer clear.
"Don't read it when you wake up, I will arrange the recipes of Your Highness every day in the future, and from tomorrow Your Highness will eat boiled daylily in water, dipping sauce and eating, with porridge and rice, boiled eggs, that's all." Satisfying muttered as he ate the skewers.
"By the way, I also have to prepare a good lemonade for His Highness, that is, a lemon cut into eight slices, one slice to soak in a big bowl, and His Highness will drink eight large bowls of water every day in the future."
Li Chengqian looked at the mouth full of oil, "Is that all it takes?" ”
Satisfied, nodded and put the grilled skewers on the plate on the side, "Yes, Your Highness, let's just wait and see, by the way, I have to eat meat for every meal, and I will leave the matter of eating daylily to yourself." There is also how easy it is to run to the thatched house when drinking water, and His Highness can't hold it. ”
Li Chengqian and the crown princess looked at each other, and they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in this heart-warming gourd, at least it didn't sound like any harm to their bodies now, so many home remedies had been tried, and this one was not bad.
Before speaking, he was satisfied that all the meat skewers that had been prepared had been baked, and he looked at the little eunuch and palace maid on the side, "Let's try it, we can't eat it, it's a pity to lose it, you say yes, Your Highness." ”
Li Chengqian looked very satisfied, didn't say anything and turned around to go back to bed, the palace maid and the eunuch saw that the prince did not object, they had already been greedy for this fragrance, and they came over one by one to prepare to taste it, Li Chengqian had not taken two steps before he heard the voice of the eunuch from the front gate. "The Emperor has arrived."
Li Chengqian hurriedly walked to the main entrance, but before his legs and feet had walked a few steps, the emperor and his party had already arrived at the side room.
Since the emperor arrived, the eunuchs and palace maids didn't dare to come together to eat barbecue, and knelt in the direction of the gate one by one, and they didn't dare to pretend to be the eldest brother when they saw that others were honestly kneeling, and they also secretly knelt beside a palace maid.
The crown princess walked to the emperor with the crown prince in her arms and saluted, "Erchen has seen my father." ”
Li Shimin motioned to Li Chengqian and the crown princess to get up, "It's curfew, why is your East Palace still so lively." ”
Li Chengqian lowered his head and said cautiously: "Erchen recently got a good friend, he came to the East Palace today as a guest and ate the food cooked by the imperial kitchen, and said that he was very unappetizing, and he wanted to show his hand in person, so he was busy until now." ”
Li Shimin nodded, and walked to the side courtyard with his hands behind his back, "I heard from bad people that you brought a dancing girl back to the East Palace today." ”
Li Chengqian panicked and hurriedly explained, "That's an old friend of Erchen, who fell into slavery for a while, how can he not rescue him when he meets again." ”
Li Shimin's footsteps did not stop, "Why don't you find an inn outside the palace, or even buy a house, do you know how many more twists and turns there will be in the court tomorrow if you bring back a singer." ”
Li Chengqian's body teased even more, "Father, there is another secret in this, in short, this old friend of mine can't live outside, only by the side of the son, the son can rest assured." ”
The crown princess on the side also said: "The minister also knows about this matter, and I hope that my father can understand the prince, don't you know what kind of temperament he has!" ”
Li Shimin walked to the table and picked up a skewer, opened his mouth and was about to stuff it into his mouth, but the old eunuch on the side wanted to stop it but saw Li Shimin's displeased eyes, and he didn't speak after all, "This thing tastes really good, since the princess knows about me, it won't matter much." ”
looked at Chengxin who was kneeling at his feet, and then looked at Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian understood what Li Shimin meant, "You all stand down." ”
The palace maid and the eunuch knelt down in an orderly manner, only Xiangxin didn't understand the words, but fortunately, Rouge found out and came back early and pulled him away.
"You can go back too, and help me settle in." Li Shimin squeezed the hand of the crown princess beside him and said.
After the crown princess gave the salute, she left the side courtyard and returned to the main hall, while instructing the palace maid and the eunuch to perform their duties, and at the same time went to the guest room where he lived with Rouge.
In the guest room, I am satisfied to look at the room that will only be in this TV series, and I am a little energetic, but there are no electric lights in this Tang Dynasty, only oil lamps, fortunately, there is no haze outside, and the moon can still be used as a light bulb.
Sitting on the bed, he still found something wrong, "Sister Crown Princess, I don't know if I need more quilts." ”
The crown princess didn't find fault with him, and glanced at the rouge beside her, and the rouge immediately retired and prepared.
"Satisfaction, can you tell me about the situation of the prince's feet, do you have the information to cure?" Seeing that there was no one around, the crown princess spoke.
Satisfied, he looked at the crown princess and said, "The prince should have a lack of nutrients." "I finally came up with a name that could be explained, although it was much worse than gout, but it should be able to fool the past.
"What is a deficiency? How do you know. The crown princess waited earnestly for the answer.
"I have the impression that my elders should have had this disease, and then met a famous doctor, he said that it is because my elder loves beef and mutton, tofu and spinach, and sea fish and shrimp, these ingredients contain a lot of things that are beneficial to the human body, but some special people can not absorb the lack of absorption will exist in a certain part of the body and finally cause limb pain, as long as you don't eat these things in the future, plus drink more water and go to the thatched house, it should be able to gradually improve, at least my elder is like this." Knit it with all your heart.
"Your elders? Have you lost your memory or not? The crown princess's face was a little unsightly.
"I'm pretty sure I have amnesia, but when I encounter something, I think of something, maybe it's instinct, and I think I'll remember it gradually." A look of firmness.
The crown princess doesn't ask much, at least for now, it seems that she hasn't shown any bad intentions, so pay more attention in the future.
Rouge also came in with a new set of bedding, and the crown princess watched Rouge make the bed, nodded to Satisfaction, and then left the room with Rouge.
After Rouge sent the two away, he also lay silently on the thick solid wood bed that was laid, looking at the moon outside the window and thinking about what he should do, and finally just muttered "If you come, you will be safe", and then fell asleep with her head covered.
On the side courtyard, Li Shimin sighed when he waited until only Li Chengqian and the others were left, "Gao Ming, do you know what is the most important thing about being a prince." ”
When Li Chengqian heard Li Shimin's words, the string that tightened tightly finally exploded, "Love the country, be loyal to the king, treat others leniently, be strict with yourself, and love the people like a son······ The more you talk about it, the less confident you are.
Li Shimin looked at his trembling appearance and patted Li Chengqian's shoulder heavily, "Wrong, very wrong." The most important thing about sitting on the prince is two words, duty, you talk about what duty is. ”
Li Chengqian's eyes widened for a long time and he couldn't say a word, Li Shimin still couldn't bear to leave like this after all, and glanced at Li Chengqian fiercely, "The duty of being a eunuch is to be loyal to the emperor, the duty of being a courtier is to know the public opinion of Emperor Ming, and what is the duty of being a prince." ”
Only then did Li Chengqian understand what Li Shimin meant, "I listened to my father's words." ”
Li Shimin nodded, "Don't listen to the rumors outside, my son I know best, as long as you listen to me for a day, you will still be the prince for a day, and when I become the emperor, you will be the emperor, do you understand!" If there is anything to do in the future, go directly to the Jinshen Hall to find me, don't be a stuffy gourd, have you lost your sharpness in just one year, the Li Chengqian who used to be accurate in archery with me on a pony! ”
After that, he didn't wait for Li Chengqian to reply, so he left without looking back.
Only Li Chengqian was left crying silently.
