Chapter 620
Gu Xuebin rubbed his hands and said with a serious face: "My master only has his daughter-in-law in his heart, and everything can be thrown away except for his daughter-in-law." Not to mention a bug. ”
Uh, well! Fortunately, the connection between the silver-winged bee and Gu Xuebin is not high now, otherwise it will definitely fight back again.
Su Jinyao shook her finger and said, "Don't go back in the future with the consciousness just now, especially after you have really established a connection with the silverwinged bee." The master's consciousness can control the Gu worm, and it can also make the Gu worm feel your state of mind towards it. I'm afraid that guy will hold a grudge and it will be bad for you. ”
The three chapters of the covenant are actually not so difficult, although Gu Xuebin is reluctant on the surface, he is a very cautious person in his bones. After Su Jinyao said it once, he basically remembered it.
And as long as he thinks that he can grow old slowly with Jinyao after raising a silver-winged bee, Gu Xuebin's psychology is still very happy.
After talking for a while, both of them felt that they had rested.
Moreover, the tonic that the silverwinged bee injected into Gu Xuebin before was too big, even if he had lost too much blood before, it didn't have much effect, so Gu Xuebin quickly wanted to get up and walk around.
Because his strength was enough, Gu Xuebin didn't plan to wait in the house to eat.
got up and changed into a clean robe, found clean clothes for Su Jinyao, and helped her change it with her own hands, and carried her out to the front hall for dinner.
Ming Juan and Ming Rui, who had been arranging the two masters before, were not only surprised, but the master's resilience was really amazing.
After dinner, Su Jinyao was very tired. She didn't have as strong internal force as Gu Xuebin, and the backlash still had some impact on her, so she went to bed early.
It's just that when Su Jinyao was sleeping, Gu Xuebin was by her side. But when she woke up from a good night's sleep, her surroundings were already empty.
Su Jinyao got up and shouted, and Mingjuan and Mingrui came over quickly. Su Jinyao asked, "What about Che?" ”
"Back to the master, the marquis went out before dawn." Mingjuan has already changed her name to Gu Xuebin as the Hou Ye, which sounds a little awkward.
Su Jinyao frowned, feeling that she had slept too deeply, and Gu Xuebin didn't even know when she got up.
But after thinking about it again, she felt that it was wrong, so Su Jinyao asked, "Is there any news from the palace?" Why did he leave so early? ”
Mingjuan said: "Back to the master, it was the emperor's urgent call, and the Hou Ye immediately got up and passed." At that time, I heard the father-in-law who delivered the decree say that he wanted the master to go over together. But Hou Ye felt sorry for his master's injury, so he didn't bother and went over by himself. ”
News from the palace! Su Jinyao hurriedly got up, hurriedly freshened up, changed clothes, didn't even eat breakfast, and hurried into the palace.
Mingjuan hurriedly said: "Master, Master Hou has instructed before going out, let the master be sure to rest at home." He also said that everything is in charge of the Hou Ye, so that the master can rest assured. ”
"He's not a healer, how can I rest assured." Su Jinyao's brows furrowed even tighter, and she directly ordered: "Prepare the car and enter the palace." ”
Mingjuan had no choice, and she knew that she couldn't stop it, so she asked Mingrui to arrange for the coachman to prepare the car.
Autumn Shadow heard the movement and came over. Su Jinyao said: "You can take the joy pendant with you at home." I'm afraid you won't be able to enter the palace, so A-Ning will follow me. After speaking, he hurriedly took Mingjuan and Mingrui away.
Although Qiu Ying couldn't follow Su Jinyao into the palace, she didn't dare to be idle. Su Jinyao left on the front foot, and she issued a secret order on the back foot, so that all the secret agents lurking in the capital, the imperial city, and even the palace paid close attention. In case something happens, be sure to protect Su Jinyao's safety first.
Su Jinyao had just come to the gate of the palace, and it happened that a sheep cart ran out of the palace. Manager Yue got down from the sheep cart and hurriedly ordered the little eunuch at the door to prepare the cart.
Su Jinyao got out of the driveway: "Manager Yue, why are you in such a hurry?" ”
Manager Yue also happened to see Su Jinyao, his eyes lit up, and he said, "The princess, you came just in time, Your Royal Highness and the Prime Minister are in the emperor's imperial study." There are some things that need to be judged by the princess, so I asked the old slave to go to the mansion to invite you. ”
When Su Jinyao heard that she was looking for her, she turned a few corners in her heart and said, "May I ask Mr. Yue, since the emperor and the prime minister are here, why are you in a hurry to come to me?" ”
"Hehe, didn't you knowingly ask what you said, princess?" Manager Yue smiled and said, "If you really don't understand, why did you arrive at the gate of the palace so coincidentally?" ”
"I just came to look for Che, I didn't say I wanted to go in." Su Jinyao smiled, but she was not in a hurry to enter the palace.
Manager Yue couldn't refute it when he heard this, and was stunned for a moment before saying: "Oh, it's really time urgent, please ask the princess to go in with me, and the slave will give you the way." ”
Su Jinyao hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Manager Yue is polite, you are just a servant of the emperor, and I want to call you 'Lord Chief'." ”
Manager Yue's face was a little happy, it seems that the crown princess who has just stepped down is quite talkative, and she listens to what she says.
However, Manager Yue was an old and spicy piece of ginger, so he said quietly: "No matter what, don't let Long Live Lord wait." Princess, please. ”
Su Jinyao walked inside, and Mingjuan and Mingrui followed.
Su Jinyao took a sheep cart by herself, and Manager Yue took one and walked next to Su Jinyao's sheep cart. And Mingjuan and Mingrui can only walk behind.
The little eunuch who drove the car was very discerning, and he drove the sheep cart not fast or slow, so that the two cars could go hand in hand, and Manager Yue and Su Jinyao could also make it clear.
Su Jinyao now has a rough idea in her heart, and understands that Prime Minister Gu has almost done the matter, and the human and physical evidence must have been presented in front of the emperor.
Mr. Yue: "Oh, there have been a lot of things that have happened in the palace recently, and the emperor is also a little upset." This morning, Imperial Doctor Chen, who had already returned to his hometown, brought back to Prime Minister Gu, and said something more than a year ago. More than a year ago, it was when Concubine Rong was alive. ”
Su Jinyao's brows frowned slightly, and she turned her head and asked Mr. Yue: "Isn't Concubine Rong the mother of the ninth princess and the tenth princess?" Does this have anything to do with her? ”
"Yes. Imperial Doctor Chen said that although Concubine Rong was seriously ill back then, she should not have died so early, at least she could support it for a few years. This woman, being a mother is strong, even for the sake of the two little princesses, Concubine Rong will not close her eyes easily. What's more, there is the emperor's single-minded favor, and he will not let Concubine Rong leave easily. ”
Speaking of this, Manager Yue sighed and said, "It's just that Imperial Doctor Chen was obsessed with his mind at that time and did something that shouldn't have happened, which caused Concubine Rong to die." Therefore, the emperor asked the princess to determine in the past, whether it was Imperial Doctor Chen who did this matter related to the cause of Concubine Rong's death. If he does it unintentionally, he can also deal with it as appropriate; If it was really intentional, it would be a big crime to kill people and murder the imperial concubine. ”
Su Jinyao nodded when she heard this, and pretended to be nervous: "It seems that the burden on my shoulders is really heavy." However, I still don't know too much about proportion, and I'm afraid that if I say more or less, it will affect the innocent. So please give me some advice, how to do it to be fair? ”
The emperor is cowardly
Hearing Su Jinyao's question, Manager Yue sighed and said, "You are a disciple of the divine doctor, and you know the best in terms of medical skills. The emperor is here to naturally want to hear the truth and tell the truth. Just tell the truth. ”
Tell the truth? Su Jinyao sneered secretly, feeling that this manager Yue was really good at tai chi.
If the emperor really wanted to hear the truth, he should have thoroughly investigated the matter as early as when Concubine Rong died.
And now let Su Jinyao tell the truth, and Su Jinyao will have to carry the things that offend people.
Since her marriage to Gu Xuebin, Su Jinyao has had more opportunities to contact the emperor. Therefore, Su Jinyao also understood why the emperor ended up in the last position where no one was available, and even thought about abdicating early several times.
Indecisiveness is one of them, the emperor's means are not clever, his heart is not hard enough, but his ears are very soft.
Although Su Jinyao is very assertive in treating him. But don't forget, at the beginning of Su Jinyao's surgical opinion, the emperor also called Imperial Doctor Chen to observe.
In other words, it is impossible for anyone to get the emperor's complete trust, but someone must testify from the side for the emperor to believe it.
The second is that I love to take regret medicine. The emperor has not yet reached the point of being old and confused, and even if the emperor has been in it for so many years, he should know some scheming and tricks.
It's just that the emperor's reaction was half a beat slower, and he loved to think about things that he couldn't figure out at the time, and he often regretted it too late in the end.
Therefore, there must always be someone around him to send him regret medicine, and now Su Jinyao should be regarded as one.
The last point is that the emperor is too cowardly, so weak that he doesn't dare to accept the reality, he can't protect him deeply, and he can't break it ruthlessly if he doesn't love it.
Therefore, the harem is in the hands of the queen mother, and the queen mother has been pretending to be a weak chicken for many years, and she is unwilling after all, and she always wants to fight back at the right time.
And the emperor opened one eye, closed one eye and pretended not to see, not wanting to mediate the relationship between the queen mother and the queen, but found another way. He first pampered Tuoba Yunji and pushed the nobles forward; Then he favored Concubine Rong, and still used the nobles as a shield.
In this way, there are two things around the emperor that are indispensable. One is regret medicine, and the other is a shield.
So now that Mr. Yue asked Su Jinyao to tell the truth, Su Jinyao had already begun to weigh in her heart how she could get the most powerful bargaining chip for herself and achieve her goal.
Since the emperor can't give fairness, she has to fight for her own welfare. This opportunity was painstakingly arranged by Su Jinyao, and it must be a success.
As for the future, the emperor will still be his emperor, and Gu Xuebin also has his own choice.
Su Jinyao has never swayed Gu Xuebin's thoughts, whether he is willing to continue to be the prince or whether he is willing to be his Anping Beihou is happy with him.
This is just like Gu Xuebin's connivance and pampering of Su Jinyao, only complete support is the best spoiling.
Thinking about it, the sheep cart had already arrived at the door of the imperial study. Manager Yue got out of the sheep cart first, let Su Jinyao be in the side hall later, and he went in to report.
Mingjuan and Mingrui helped Su Jinyao down left and right, and Su Jinyao said, "It's okay, I can go by myself." ”
Mingjuan let go of her hand at this time, but she and Mingrui still protected each other.
Su Jinyao walked really unsteadily, just like she said herself, it really takes a long time to fully recover. It may even leave sequelae.
But there is no way to do it, no matter how clever the medical skills are, it is not against the sky, Su Jinyao knows very well what the worst result is, so it is in vain to worry now. Let's just hope that everything will go in a good direction.
Mr. Yue came out with Gu Xuebin. Gu Xuebin hurriedly walked over first, grabbed Su Jinyao's waist, and pulled her into his arms to prevent her feet from being stressed.
Su Jinyao said, "I'm fine, it's not very painful." Why did you come by yourself and don't call me a word? ”
Gu Xuebin shook his head and just said, "I don't want to wake you up." Then he lowered his voice and said, "There's news, I'll take the opportunity to come over early." ”
Su Jinyao's eyebrows jumped slightly, she understood that when Gu Xuebin said "there is news", he meant the news of the Lin brothers and sisters.
Therefore, Su Jinyao held Gu Xuebin's hand with a slight force, raised her head and asked with her eyes, hoping to see something from Gu Xuebin's eyes.
Gu Xuebin hooked the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to pull out a smile to comfort Su Jinyao, but in the end he shook his head.
Su Jinyao's heart "chuckled", and she had already guessed the worst ending. She bit her lip, and her eyes were a little gloomy.
Gu Xuebin hurriedly whispered, "The Lin brothers and sisters are fine. ”
"Oh?" Su Jinyao was stunned for a moment, then looked into Gu Xuebin's eyes, wondering if his words were inconsistent.
But with a slight flash of thought, Su Jinyao immediately understood. Gu Xuebin said that the "Lin sisters and brothers" were fine, but Mingcui was arrested with the Lin sisters and brothers.
"Mingcui has ......" Su Jinyao's voice was very small, and the little Gu Xuebin could barely hear it clearly with his good ear.
He didn't know how to answer, but he knew he couldn't help answering. In the end, I had to say: "Jin Yao, go in first, it's not what you think." ”
After speaking, Gu Xuebin leaned over and picked up Su Jinyao horizontally and walked to the imperial study.
Manager Yue hurriedly led the way in front again, but glanced at Mingjuan and Mingrui who came over, and said, "You two are waiting outside." ”
Mingjuan and Mingrui could only stop and answer "yes".
It was the first time for Su Jinyao to come to this imperial study. However, all she was thinking about at this time was the Lin sisters and brothers and Mingcui, so she didn't care about how magnificent and gorgeous this imperial study was.
The imperial study is very large, with a hall on the outside, a place to store books and folds in the middle, and a study room with a dragon book case inside.
After passing the middle study hall, Manager Yue whispered to Gu Xuebin: "Is the princess's foot injured extremely seriously?" ”
This sentence seems to be caring, but it is actually reminding Gu Xuebin that it is time to put Su Jinyao down.
But Gu Xuebin shook his head and said nothing, still holding Su Jinyao and walking inside.
He is not afraid of anyone's eyes, and he holds Su Jinyao just because Jinyao's foot is injured, which is not conducive to action, and it has nothing to do with etiquette and rules.
Manager Yue was helpless, so he just opened the last bead curtain so that Gu Xuebin could carry Su Jinyao in.
The emperor was sitting behind the dragon case at this time, and next to the dragon case stood the ancient prime minister, and in front of the dragon case was the kneeling imperial doctor Chen who had returned to his hometown.
It didn't take long to see him, Imperial Doctor Chen seemed to be ten years old all of a sudden, his back was rickety, he was not wearing a crown and only combed a curl of hair, his hair was already gray and white, and not a single black hair was gone.
Su Jinyao glanced in the direction of Imperial Doctor Chen, and couldn't tell whether she should be disgusted or sympathetic.
Imperial Doctor Chen confessed
I think that Imperial Doctor Chen was very respectful to the Divine Doctor Zhu Xinsuo in his words, so Su Jinyao had a good impression of him.
But now that I think about it, most of the objects of one's worship and the goals one sets are full of positive energy. But there are not many people who can really be impartial and have a clear conscience.
Imperial Doctor Chen is old like this, it must be because he lives in fear all day long, and he is always worried that what he did at the beginning will be revealed.
Imperial Doctor Chen knew that Su Jinyao was coming, but he still bent over, kneeling on the ground with his head down, and didn't dare to move his stiff neck.
Su Jinyao looked away and turned to the emperor and said, "Father Wan'an, Jinyao's foot is disabled, which is not conducive to walking, I hope my father will not blame him." ”
The emperor also seemed to be preoccupied, and after listening to Su Jinyao's words, he just said "um" and disappeared.
Gu Xuebin simply hugged Su Jinyao and retreated to the side. He was not weak enough to hold Su Jinyao, and since the emperor didn't speak, he would hold it.
However, Su Jinyao struggled slightly, and whispered, "Let me down." I'll stand for a while and be fine. ”
At this time, the emperor also heard it, so he turned his head to look at Su Jinyao again, and then said to Mr. Yue: "Let the princess sit down." ”
"Thank you, Father." Su Jinyao agreed, and when Manager Yue moved the chair, she hurriedly signaled Gu Xuebin to let her go.
Su Jinyao sat down, and the emperor was stunned for a while, and then turned his head to look at Su Jinyao and asked, "Jinyao, your foot is very serious, right?" ”
Su Jinyao bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern." Jin Yao was willing to hurt the people. Just like Xuebin's willingness to abandon everything for the sake of the people, it is the same mind. ”
Su Jinyao said this, just to remind the emperor, where to find a good prince like Gu Xuebin? Phew, you don't have long eyes, and you don't count in your heart.
The emperor listened to Su Jinyao's words and was silent again. Stunned, he began to be in a daze again, and seemed to be always thinking about something.
For a while, the atmosphere in the imperial study was super stuffy, so stuffy that Su Jinyao felt that her arrangements were not in vain?
You must know that from the moment she suspected that Imperial Doctor Chen had a problem, she had already begun to investigate secretly, and she would not let go of any clues.
It wasn't until she returned to Beijing that Su Jinyao mastered most of the clues and asked Mr. Cheng to go straight to Imperial Doctor Chen's hometown with some evidence.
The reason why Mr. Cheng was allowed to go over was completely moved by emotion and reason, in order to allow Imperial Doctor Chen to cooperate with them.
But now that Imperial Doctor Chen has come to the emperor again, what is the emperor still hesitating about? Is he deliberately trying to shield the mastermind behind the scenes?
