Xiao He said respectfully and solemnly: "The minister must repent, and he will never do such a deceitful thing again." After saying that, I added in my heart, I will never be discovered by you so easily.

Hearing this, a smile overflowed on Mu Churan's lips, this smile became stronger than just now, he approached her and whispered in her ear: "You ghost spirit, you always pick up what people like to hear, but this habit is not good." I just want to hear you tell the truth. ”

Xiao He raised his eyes and bumped into his eyes, those dark brown eyes were like mist and rain, hiding the slightest clasped bond, as if he wanted to suck her into it, and refused to let her go easily. In an instant, Xiao He actually felt that this gaze was really scorching, so he avoided it first before replying: "Your Majesty, the minister has always told the truth, but sometimes those who tell the truth are not so likable. ”

Mu Churan misinterpreted her words, tilted her head, and asked, "So, do you want to please me?" ”

As he spoke, he took a step forward and leaned closer.

Xiao He hurriedly retreated, "The minister is panicking." ”

If Mu Churan can get rid of his overconfidence and the habit of only understanding according to his own preferences, then he may really be a little empathetic. Xiao He sighed silently in his heart, but since he was already a Son of Heaven, the so-called empathy didn't seem to be useful, and he had the means to let others clearly show his sincerity.

When the two were confronting each other, they heard a eunuch outside telling them that there was an urgent matter in the Chaolu Palace.

Mu Churan announced that he came in to speak, but heard that the Queen Mother suddenly fell ill.

When Mu Churan heard this, his face couldn't help but change greatly, "Can you announce the imperial doctor?" "The queen mother has always cherished her body and paid attention to her health, and she has never had a serious illness, so how could she suddenly fall ill, it is very strange.

"Imperial Doctor Xue from the Imperial Hospital has rushed over, so he came to report to the emperor." The eunuch in charge of the Chaolu Hall responded cautiously.

"Swing to the dew hall." Mu Churan didn't say a word, and immediately went over to see it in person. Xiao He took the opportunity to retire, Mu Churan nodded, and allowed her to retreat first. Even if the mother and son were a little unhappy because the Queen Mother forced him to take a concubine three times and twice, she was his biological mother after all, so how could she not worry at this time.

It's just that it's not just the matter of accepting a concubine, the queen mother's hand is stretched too long, and this time the king of Chishui chose a concubine, the portrait was flawed, and he also suspected that the queen mother did it, but he couldn't figure out the relationship. If the queen mother didn't want Liu Yingluo to marry the King of Chishui, it stands to reason that she would be more ruthless, rather than finally choosing her sister.

The painter who painted the portraits of those ladies in the Ruyi Pavilion was sent out of the palace early in the morning. Mu Churan wanted to track it down again, but there was no trace, but based on this alone, he wanted to cover it up. This is indeed a bit of the style of the Queen Mother.

But the sudden illness at this time was really a bit unexpected.

After arriving at the Chaolu Palace, Xue Liangan reported the diagnosis to Mu Churan, "The Queen Mother was infected with a chronic poison, and now she has an overdose of toxins in her body, so she fell ill once." This poison has been lingering in her body for a long time, but she has never had symptoms, and she has never been contaminated much each time, so it will not be detected. ”

When Mu Churan heard this, he was even more shocked, "How can it be so good, it will be poisoned, or is it this kind of poison that has been around for a long time?" Don't you servants want brains? His voice was not loud, but it sent a chill through the room. In the anger of the Son of Heaven, no one dared to touch the dragon's scales, so they all knelt on the ground honestly, bowed their heads to the ground, and begged for mercy, "The slave should die, please calm your anger." ”

Just when Mu Churan wanted to continue to inquire about the Queen Mother's condition, the imperial doctor Gong Pei came in with a medicine box, saluted him first, and then said aloud: "Your Majesty, Weichen heard that someone misdiagnosed the Queen Mother's poisoning, so he hurried to clarify to His Majesty. The queen mother's phoenix body has always been taken care of by the ministers, if the queen mother is really poisoned, the first person to find it should also be a micro-minister. ”

Mu Churan frowned when he saw him confess, and asked, "Why is Imperial Doctor Xue different from Imperial Doctor Gong's statement?" ”

That Gong Pei sneered, his attitude was very disdainful, "Back to Your Majesty, Imperial Doctor Xue is good at trauma and detoxification, so I am afraid that I hope that every patient is a symptom that he is good at." ”

When Xue Liangan heard that Gong Pei was full of feminine mouth, he couldn't help but argue with him a few words, and took the Queen Mother's pulse as an example to carefully analyze his judgment. It's a pity that apart from these two imperial doctors, no one in the house understands medicine, and I don't know what they are arguing about.

But Gong Pei slowly asked Mu Churan to allow him to take the pulse of the Queen Mother again.

Mu Churan didn't think about it, so he was approved.

Gong Pei stepped forward to check the pulse of the Queen Mother, and when everyone was kneeling on the ground, he secretly glanced at Mu Churan and didn't look here, so he stuffed an antidote into the Queen Mother's mouth and asked her to swallow it. Then he reported to Mu Churan, "The Queen Mother is just infected with the wind and cold, this disease comes quickly and violently, presumably because the Queen Mother's phoenix body has been in a small day recently, so it is extremely weak." As the saying goes, illness comes like a mountain, wait for Weichen to prescribe a medicine of warmth and conditioning, let the Queen Mother take it, and the medicine will be able to get rid of the disease. ”

Xue Liangan sneered beside him: "Hmph! You are innocent and want to kill the Queen Mother! ”

As soon as Xue Liangan finished speaking, the Queen Mother came to her senses, sat up slowly, and her voice came from behind the screen, "Who wants to kill the mourning family?" ”

As soon as Mu Churan heard that the queen mother had woken up, she hurriedly stepped forward to ask, "Queen mother, is there any discomfort in your body?" ”

Leng Qingchen stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, glanced at Mu Churan, and then replied a little tiredly, "My head is still a little heavy, my body is weak, and I have no energy......

Gong Pei continued: "Does the Queen Mother still feel a slight tingling in these two temples? Sore hands and feet? ”

Leng Qingchen replied softly: "Exactly." ”

Gong Pei immediately said to Mu Churan: "Your Majesty, these symptoms are all signs of wind and cold. ”

Xue Liangan argued on the side: "Your Majesty, this Imperial Doctor Gong obviously wants to distort his condition, he must be afraid that His Majesty will blame Su Ri for not taking proper care of the Queen Mother, so he deliberately lied!" ”

Gong Pei immediately turned the gun and said to Xue Liangan: "Lord Xue, the lower officials have no grudge against you, why do you want to spew blood so much?" ”

Xue Liangan had a righteous face, "You have never been right about things or people, you know it yourself." ”

Mu Churan saw that the two of them were arguing, so he simply said: "Don't do any more pointless verbal disputes, you two will wait on the side first." He turned his head and called a little eunuch to go to the imperial doctor's office, and invited three more imperial doctors to come over, and then diagnose the queen mother.

Xiao He spent an afternoon in Jixian Palace, always feeling a little restless, as if something was going to happen.

When he was about to leave the palace, the guard Xiao Qing quietly sent news that the imperial doctor Xue Liangan was sent to the prison of Jingzhao Mansion and ordered someone to be postponed pending trial. Because he was in the palace, there was only one piece of news, and Xiao Qing did not elaborate on it.

Xiao He recalled that the Queen Mother had an accident first, Xue Liangan saw a doctor later, and then the accident happened.

And this order was given by Mu Churan personally, everything came too suddenly, and she didn't even have the slightest mental preparation. I only know that at this time, I have to find out why I was put in prison first.

After leaving the palace, she went straight to the Jingzhao Mansion, but was told that Xue Liangan was a repeat offender and was not allowed to visit.

She had no other way for a while, so she could only go back to the house first and then make plans.

And after she returned home, after thinking about it, she felt that she was as cautious as Xue Liangan, and she shouldn't have made any big mistakes and was imprisoned. Just when she was worried, Xiao Shi brought news that Murong wanted to see her, and the appointment place was at her wine shop.

Although Xiao He was not in the mood to meet with this ghostly character, he couldn't refuse at this time, and meeting him would at least be able to understand Mu Yunjing's recent situation.

When Xiao He arrived at the agreed place, Xiao Er took her to the attic box on the second floor.

Although she was already the secret owner of this place, she never thought that Murong was so well-informed, so she immediately made an appointment to meet her here.

As soon as he entered the box, he saw Murong wearing a narrow-sleeved brocade robe, but he was still covered with a silver mask and refused to show his true face. Xiao He was not surprised.

It's just that in this box, in addition to Murong, there is also a woman in red who is dressed enchantingly. Compared with Murong, the woman was much more generous, not only did her placket open wide, her shoulders were half exposed, her skirt also seemed to have a long fork, and a pair of snow-white thighs loomed between the red skirts.

She was dressed like this, and even Xiao He, as a woman, couldn't help but look twice, let alone a man.

It's just that when Xiao He saw her face, he was slightly surprised, wasn't she the night joy who was competing for the Oiran in Wanhualou some time ago? But as far as Xiao He knew, this Yehuan was a person from Qinglong Hall. Now that she has appeared next to Murong again, whether it is just a transaction or something else can't help but lead people to reverie.

"Lord Xiao, you're quite punctual." Murong's voice was a little cold, and he couldn't hear joy or anger, but his brown and cold eyes exuded a luster like a beast through the silver mask, which suddenly made Xiao He feel a little threatened and vigilant.

But she remained silent and smiled indifferently, "Brother Murong is here, how can you not be punctual, or not give Brother Murong face?" ”

She wanted to ask Mu Yunjing how he was now, why didn't she bring him to the appointment this time, but her eyes fell on Ye Huan next to her, intentionally or unintentionally, and she didn't want to speak easily, because she couldn't be trusted. It's her instinct, she smells danger and is always precise.

Murong glanced at Xiao He's eyes and knew that she was full of vigilance against the woman beside her, so he reached out and hooked the woman's chin, and commanded softly: "You go down first, go and meet your old friend." ”

"Yes, sir." The woman's eyes were flowing, charming and silky, and her delicate demeanor was natural, as if she was born to attract the eyes of men, and she could be called a woman among women. Even Xiao He, who is used to being a man, couldn't bear to feel a little envious in his heart, but this thought was only for a moment, and then dispersed.

She moved the lotus step lightly, twisted the small waist like a water snake, and paced out of the box.
