Chapter 436: Queen Arhando Loses Her Memory
Although this Tobe-sama is polite, he still has to be thanked where he should be thanked.
"The attitude of the king and the ministers towards me today is quite friendly, I think Lord Lu has contributed a lot in the middle, so I really want to thank Lord Lu." Liu Yunyi thanked from the bottom of his heart.
Lord Lu felt comfortable listening to it, and knew that the woman in front of him was not an ordinary woman, so his attitude became more and more respectful.
"The princess said thank you now, but it's still a little early. Although the king and his ministers were already convinced, they could not stand the prime minister's obstruction. Princess, this matter should not be delayed for a long time......"
Originally, seeing that the king was about to agree to come down, this is good, but the prime minister dragged it out and shouted to stop. Maybe Qingzhou has received the news and started to take corresponding measures.
The longer it drags on, the worse it will be for Liu Yunyi.
After all, she is only coming alone at this time, and all the helpers are only Lord Tobe Lu and some secret guards.
The number of people on the Qingzhou side has the upper hand, if there is support from the Da Yue side, not to mention whether the cooperation can still be achieved, she Liu Yunyi may not be able to leave this small island of Akhando well!
No way!
Today's situation is already rare, and we must not be spoiled by the prime minister and dragged out!
Liu Yunyi put his eyes back on Lord Lu, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Lord Lu, speaking of which, has the king not been in good health recently?" ”
Lord Lu had nothing to hide, and immediately nodded: "It's not a secret, the queen suddenly had a serious illness in March last year, and after she recovered from her illness, she mysteriously lost a lot of memories, especially the king, no matter how the king explained, the queen couldn't remember him, and even avoided him, forcibly moved out of the palace and lived in another courtyard outside the palace."
Since then, the king has been depressed, and even now on this birthday, he has not made a big deal, but only meaningfully rested the whole country for five days. ”
What is the state of a person, you can see it from the face.
The king has looked a lot older in the past few months, and he is only in his forties, but his face is full of wrinkles, and his mental state is not good.
Fortunately, now that Dayue and Zhenlin have come one after another, the king has forcibly cheered up in order to deal with state affairs.
With things to divert his grief, people are somewhat clearer.
Although Hubu is a Zhenlin person, after all, he has been in Ahando for so many years, and people have feelings, so he naturally hopes that Ahando can become better and better on the premise of not infringing on the interests of Zhenlin.
Liu Yunyi's brows moved, and the corners of his mouth raised a smile: "Please also ask Lord Lu for a favor, I want to meet the king again in private!" ”
"This ......" Lord Lu was a little surprised.
"The king has just shown signs of relenting, just add another push, and there is no prime minister to make trouble when I meet in private, I am confident that I can convince the king!"
Liu Yunyi is full of confidence.
Lord Lu thought about it, and then agreed to it, and already had an idea in his heart.
He asked Liu Yunyi to follow behind him in disguise, holding a few books in his hand, pretending to be a little girl.
led Liu Yunyi all the way to the door of the imperial study.
When his father-in-law saw him coming, he stepped forward and whispered: "The king is busy in the morning, and he feels a little tired at this time, I'm afraid that he is napping, Lord Shangshu ......."
Lord Tobe smiled: "Regarding the town of Lin, this official has received important news, and he really has to report it. ”
The father-in-law also knew how urgent the matter of Zhenlin and Dayue was now, and he didn't dare to delay, so he still went in to ask for instructions.
After coming over for a while, he hurriedly came out and said to Lord Tobe: "My lord, the king invites you to come in." ”
Lord Tobe smiled and nodded, and slowly walked to the door with Liu Yunyi.
The door opened a crack, but only signaled Liu Yunyi to enter.
As soon as Liu Yunyi entered, he closed the door again.
My father-in-law didn't react for a while, and he was dumbfounded after reacting.
"Lu, Lord Lu? This is? ”
Lord Tobe smiled: "Since it is the king's invitation, it is enough for him to go in." ”
After that, he raised his eyes and saw that in the corridor in the distance, three or two people were hurrying over, including the prime minister.
Tobe-sama immediately rushed down the steps outside the door of the imperial study as fast as he could, and then pounced, and knelt down towards the door, which was called a piety.
After a while, the prime minister led people to the door of the imperial study, and suddenly saw the Lord of the household kneeling like this, and it was inevitable that he was a little surprised.
Tobe-sama: "Yo! It turned out to be Xiang Ye, Xiang Ye also has something to meet the emperor, why is Master Fang here! ”
The prime minister ignored him, and was about to walk forward with the lord.
Lord Tobe didn't dare to stop the prime minister, but he dared to stop Lord Fang, who was about the same rank as him.
Immediately grabbed the hem of Lord Fang's clothes: "Wait! Wait, Lord Fang, you're not interested enough. The king is resting right now, and if you want to face the saint, you have to wait outside, I came early and have been kneeling here, you can't cut the line! ”
Lord Fang tried to pull his sleeve back from the other party's hand, but Lord Tobe was ruthless, and he didn't twitch for a long time.
He Cheng glanced at each other, and the two of them had to look at the big eunuch waiting outside the door.
"Is the king really resting?"
When the two of them asked, the great eunuch clearly felt the pressure of the eyes from Lord Tobe.
The big eunuch was also helpless for a while, thinking that when he went in to report by himself, the king was indeed napping with his arms propped up, so he nodded.
Lord Tobe's mind succeeded, and Lord Fang's rest became more happy, and he pointed to the vacant seat beside him: "Come on, Lord Fang will come and wait together?" ”
After finishing speaking, he seemed to remember that the prime minister was also there, so he quickly moved to the back and patted the ground with his wide sleeves: "I almost forgot about Xiangye, if Xiangye has to wait, just wait here, the sun can't shine here, so let Xiangye give it to Xiangye!" ”
The prime minister listened with a black line on his face.
His status was noble, and he didn't want to listen to Lord Tobe ridicule like this, so he lost a look to Lord Fang, and immediately snorted coldly, and went away directly.
Lord Fang's heart was bitter......
Lord Tobe grabbed his hand more enthusiastically, and said in a clear way: "I'm still worried, I don't know when I kneel, now that Lord Fang is coming to accompany me, it's the best, if you're bored, let's chat and talk, this official and Lord Fang have been colleagues for so many years, but they don't seem to have talked much......
……
Because of the distance of a whole staircase, the sound in the palace of the imperial study is really not very audible outside.
Liu Yunyi entered the imperial study, and the king really sat behind the dragon chair and squinted and took a nap.
Hearing Liu Yunyi's footsteps, the king didn't even raise his eyelids, but let out a long sigh of relief, and then said slowly in a somewhat tired voice: "Lu Aiqing didn't want to come to persuade Gu?" It's only been such a long time since the next dynasty, and no matter how good Lu Qing is, he can't suddenly find new important information. ”
Liu Yunyi didn't make a sound, but slowly put the document in his hand on the small table beside him.
The king did not listen to her, but went on on with himself.
"Zhenlin and Yue Guo are now coming to the door in person, in fact, in the end, whether it is good or not, it is only a matter of choosing one of the two. No one can say what will happen in the future, but from the current point of view, the benefits that Zhenlin can give are indeed the fastest to be realized.
But it is also reasonable for the prime minister to be worried, that Zhenlin and Yue Guo fought fiercely, and Yue Guo now shows a lot of sincerity......"
Liu Yunyi still didn't speak, but slowly walked around the imperial study.
As Tobe-sama said, the king had great respect for the queen, and there was a portrait of the queen and her in a corner of the imperial study.
In the painting, the two stand together and snuggle up to each other, but it is really the appearance of the flounder in love, it is really unimaginable that such an infatuated and single-minded person is actually the king of a country!
Let's go back to the queen, graceful and graceful, and she is a beauty who has been quiet for years.
The king in the painting is also much younger than he looks now, standing with the queen, very right.
Perhaps he hadn't heard Lord Tobe salute for a long time, and the king couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and opened his eyes.
Liu Yunyi stood in front of the portrait with his hands in his hands, stopping to look.
After all, the king has also experienced strong winds and waves, and he did not see the Tobe Shangshu in the imperial study, but he saw the figure of a stranger, and instantly understood that this should be arranged by the Tobe Shangshu.
didn't stop shouting, but said with some emotion: "The queen is kind-hearted and kind, she is a mother in the world, but Lone failed to take care of her and taught her to have such a serious illness, and now everything is just asking for hardship." ”
Liu Yun saw that he was awake, and quickly turned his head and bowed deeply to him: "The foreign minister has seen the king!" ”
"It's you." The king recognized that this was the envoy whom he had just met in the court, and he felt a little unhappy in his heart, wondering how Lord Tobe could be so partial to the foreign minister.
But he heard Liu Yunyi say slowly: "Your Majesty." If a person is sick, he should try to treat it, and if he has amnesia, he should try to regain his memory. Practices and elixirs alone cannot change the status quo. ”
The king's brows furrowed instantly: "How do you know! ”
The eyes are sharp, full of scrutiny.
Liu Yunyi said two words faintly: "Guess." ”
Of course, the king did not believe it.
Liu Yunyi didn't care, she continued to turn her gaze back to the portrait: "It's not a secret, before I came to the mission, I accidentally learned that there was a town under the town of Linyu City, and there were many transactions with Ahan, and all that was transported was some cinnabar and limestone, which was used for alchemy.
After I came, I overheard Lord Tobe mention that your recent lack of energy should be caused by excessive thinking about the queen and exhaustion.
I guessed that you should have listened to what the national teacher said and wanted to prolong your life by alchemy, right? ”
The king's expression did not change, but his eyes were still displeased, obviously not believing Liu Yunyi's words, and felt that it was all said by Lord Lu.
Since Liu Yunyi asked Lord Lu for help, he didn't want Lord Lu to suffer because of her.
"The king doesn't need to be angry, Lord Lu really only told me that you are not in good spirits, he is a courtier, and it is within his duty to care about you, the king. I will guess that all the things about alchemy are really because of the fact that although the palace of the king is light, there is still a lot of medicinal smell. ”
"Although I have never had amnesia, I also know that many amnesia are just blood clots in the brain, and after a long time, the blood will dissipate, and the memory will be restored. It's just that how long will you have to wait, no one can say for sure, the king is not afraid that the queen will finally recover her memory in the future, but you are already old, so you want to refine the pill and prolong your life, right? ”
