Chapter 159: Responding to Change with Change
Sui Chen seemed to have expected Shen Cuobai to come, so he prepared tea early and waited for Shen Cuobai's arrival, and when he saw Shen Cuobai, he smiled faintly. "The Emperor of Eastern Qi has been in the palace for a long time, I don't know if he has been to other places?"
Shen Cuobai sat opposite Sui Chen, but he didn't mind Sui Chen's unreasonableness, and replied, "No." ”
Sui Chen picked up the teapot, poured tea into the teacup in front of Shen Cuobai, and said softly, "Then what is the difference between the tea leaves that the Emperor of Dongqi personally brought over from the palace and the things he paid tribute?" ”
Shen Cuobai was not in a hurry to explain his intentions, quietly looked at Sui Chen opposite, picked up the teacup in front of him, and took a sip gently. "It's no different, I believe that what Daduan pays tribute to and what Prince Daduan drinks should be the same precious things."
Shen Cuobai's words are full of traps, if Sui Chen says that his tea is good, I am afraid it means to despise Dongqi. If you say that you are not good, doesn't it mean that you are incompetent as a prince and can't even drink a good tea? Sui Chen smiled softly, avoiding Shen Cuobai's question. "What the emperor said is good, they are all good, but they may not be the same."
Sui Chen raised his glass to Shen Cuobai, "If it is the emperor's tea, this palace must be worshiped high to be considered respectful, but this is the tea of this palace, and this palace can do whatever it wants, and people are the same, it is the same reason." ”
Sui Chen lightly touched the tea on the ground, and there was still hot air bubbling outward, but Sui Chen didn't seem to be able to see it at all.
Shen Cuobai smiled faintly, "But don't forget, the prince, this is not Daduan, this is Dongqi." You are here, no different from the common people, I have entertained you, but I don't want you to waste the water and teacups in this palace. ”
After speaking, Shen Cuobai put the teacup that Sui Chen had brought to the tea just now on the table, and made a "dang" sound, which shocked Sui Chen's heart. This Emperor of Eastern Qi has some meaning.
"What the Emperor of Dongqi said is extremely true, but no matter where she is, what the palace looks at must be from the palace, and the palace will protect her thoroughly, otherwise, it can only be like this."
Sui Chen's hand reached out to the teacup just now, and the teacup exploded in Sui Chen's hand. Shen Cuobai naturally understood what Sui Chen meant, "You really don't give me the antidote?" ”
Shen Cuobai almost squeezed out this sentence from between his teeth, but Sui Chen only felt relieved when he heard it, it turned out that such an indifferent person actually had a time when he was angry, thinking that the county lord of Zhaohua was really a strange woman.
"The Emperor of Eastern Qi doesn't give people, how can this palace give you an antidote?" Sui Chen laughed back, his face full of playfulness.
Shen Cuobai didn't argue with him, threw up his sleeves and left. Sui Chen's purpose for coming was very clear, he wanted to ask to marry Wei Zhaohua! Shen Cuobai didn't know what the reason was, but he asked Sui Chen to come thousands of miles away, just for Wei Zhaohua!
Sui Chen, who stayed in place, looked at the back of Shen Cuobai leaving, and called the guards next to him, "Xu Li, you go and send the antidote." ”
The guards behind him didn't react, Shen Cuobai personally came to find medicine Sui Chen refused in every possible way, why is there no Shen Cuobai's aggressiveness now, Sui Chen actually wants to take the initiative to send the medicine to the door. “
Prince? ”
"Even if you go, Hongu knows what he's doing!" Sui Chen seemed very dissatisfied with Su Li's hesitation, frowning and roaring. When Su Li heard Sui Chen's words, he hurriedly answered and walked in the direction of the Hall of Eternal Life.
Sui Chen looked at the direction in which Xu Li left, and slowly calmly hooked the corners of his mouth. That cat-like woman, but be careful. Even if it is a favor, she owes herself, not what Shen Cuobai got from it. Thinking of Wei Zhaohua in the Acacia Building, Sui Chen unconsciously smiled, such a woman, if she was controlled, it would be meaningless.
Shen Cuobai walked slowly all the way, as if he was thinking of a way to deal with it. By the time he arrived at the Hall of Eternal Life, Su Li had already handed over the antidote to the imperial doctor. But after all, the imperial doctor saw that Xu Li was not his own person, and Wei Zhaohua's identity was special, even if Xu Li said that it was an antidote, the imperial doctors did not dare to give Wei Zhaohua to eat it privately, so they could only wait for Shen Cuobai to come back and make a decision.
When Shen Cuobai came back, he just smiled faintly, "What are you doing in a daze, feed the county lord." ”
The imperial doctors answered, and then fed Wei Zhaohua the antidote. After a while, Wei Zhaohua coughed lightly, and Shen Cuobai was nervously by his side, for fear that something would happen to Wei Zhaohua, but Wei Zhaohua was not fully awake, but fainted.
After the imperial doctor came up to check the pulse, he saluted Shen Cuobai, "Your Majesty, the county lord is already safe, and after a short rest, he will be able to wake up." ”
Shen Cuobai was a little relieved at this time, and ordered softly, "It's none of your business here, go and see the Imperial Forest Army, there are many people like the Lord of Zhaohua, presumably Sui Chen will also send them an antidote." ”
The imperial doctors retreated, and the rest of the maids also left at Shen Cuobai's signal, leaving Shen Cuobai and Wei Zhaohua in the huge hall of eternal life. Shen Cuo looked at Wei Zhaohua on the bed idiotically, he really couldn't say a word, such a woman, even if others covet it, I'm afraid it is reasonable. But how can I protect her well?
When Jiang Heng came back, Wei Zhaohua had just woken up, and Shen Cuobai was holding the calming prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor, feeding Wei Zhaohua and drinking it in one gulp. When Jiang Heng came in, he was slightly stunned.
"See the emperor!" Jiang Heng saluted Shen Cuobai, Shen Cuobai nodded, and then fed Wei Zhaohua to drink medicine.
However, Wei Zhaohua took the lead and couldn't hold back his temperament, and asked, "How is it?" ”
Jiang Heng lowered his head and returned, "It's all been investigated, it's that group of Daduan people who first used mandala powder to confuse others, and then waited for the opportunity to do it." With the guards unconscious, it was not uncommon for the swords to be deadly. ”
Wei Zhaohua nodded, "They made this fantasy, but they just wanted to separate the people's hearts, and now that the matter has been investigated, there is no way to make it public." ”
"Now that this matter is clear, why don't you tell the truth, the people of Dongqi have been waiting for a long time." Jiang Heng asked rhetorically.
Shen Cuobai shook his head and put the empty bowl aside, "Prince Daduan is a guest in our country, if it spreads, we are afraid of the world."
will think that we are deliberately to blame. This will not happen in the future, and there is no need to explain the outcome. I feel that Sui Chen will have any other actions, wait and see what happens, and be careful. ”
Jiang Heng clenched his fists, "The subordinates obey the order." ”
Shen Cuobai nodded, walked to Jiang Heng's side, and patted Jiang Heng's shoulder, "This matter started at the confession banquet between your father and Zhaohua, your father must be very frightened, if you have the opportunity, you will comfort and comfort the old man." ”
Jiang Heng responded, and Shen Cuobai took a step and walked outside.
Wei Zhaohua looked at Jiang Heng and smiled, "Now that the truth of the matter is revealed, you can also rest for a while." ”
Jiang Heng nodded, looked at Wei Zhaohua's slightly pale face, and asked with some concern, "Are you okay?" I was escorting another adult and didn't notice you, and I didn't rush to find you until he got home. But at that time, the emperor had already taken you away. ”
Wei Zhaohua smiled faintly, "I'm fine, you can go back first." ”
Jiang Heng looked at Wei Zhaohua's tired appearance, didn't bother much, and turned around and walked out of the Hall of Eternal Life. Wei Zhaohua was lying on the bed, his eyes closed, and he always felt that something was wrong. But thinking that Jiang Heng had already handled it properly, this matter should have passed.
Since then, there has been no attack on officials, and people have stopped talking about it. Shen Cuobai did not give a detailed answer, but he was more diligent in handling the government. And they did not talk about it anymore, but as if the matter had passed.
"The county lord of Zhaohua is so interested, and when he is in good health, he will not go to see his benefactor."
Wei Zhaohua was sitting in the Baixu Pavilion, because of the beginning of spring, the ice on the lake had dispersed, and only a little ice was floating. The voice from behind came, Wei Zhaohua got up and saluted to the back.
"Zhaohua has seen Prince Daduan." Wei Zhaohua said neither humbly nor arrogantly, but Sui Chen always felt that the person in front of him was a little alienated, and he saved her, shouldn't she thank herself?
"The county lord of Zhaohua doesn't need to be polite, the county lord is weak, and he is standing in the position of the tuyere, I don't know if his body is better?" Sui Chen asked softly, looking at Wei Zhaohua with a kind face, but Wei Zhaohua didn't look up at him at all.
"It's already good, the prince doesn't have to worry." Wei Zhaohua replied lightly, making people unable to hear the feelings.
Sui Chen couldn't help but be a little anxious, and took a step forward, "Doesn't the county lord have anything to say to this palace?" ”
Wei Zhaohua hurriedly took a step back, distanced himself from Sui Chen, and still lowered his head, "What does the prince want Zhaohua to say?" Zhaohua immediately said to the prince. ”
Before Sui Chen could open his mouth, he was frightened by the sudden appearance of the person and took a few steps back. It turned out that Lin Mingtan was holding a grimace mask in his hand, and suddenly rushed to the middle of Wei Zhaohua and Sui Chen, separating the two people.
Seeing that Sui Chen was startled, Lin Mingtan hurriedly took off his mask and gently clenched his fists at Sui Chen, "It turned out to be the prince of Daduan, and this son of the world is offended." Seeing that he is so close to the lord of Zhaohua, this son is only a disciple! ”
Sui Chen smiled when he heard Lin Mingtan's words, one by one,
Isn't it clear the identity of the person in front of you? "It turned out to be the little son of the Marquis of Zhenyuan's Mansion, and the palace is not talented, and he has some friendship with your father."
Lin Mingtan laughed, "My father knows all over the world, from the government and the opposition to cats and dogs, doesn't there be a few people who know him?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a little friendship, just a little bit. ”
Sui Chen heard the sarcasm in Lin Mingtan's words, and although he was angry in his heart, he still forcibly suppressed his anger when he thought of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion. looked at Wei Zhaohua behind Lin Mingtan, and seemed to understand something.
"Xiao Shizi is really a good tutor, he hasn't learned anything about his words and deeds, but it has nothing to do with the palace. It's not too early, so I'll go back first. Lord Zhaohua, farewell. ”
