Chapter 087: Deadly Medicine
“…… What are you messing around? Wen Moqing stared at Yan Liwu for a long time before she spit out, frowned slightly and looked at Bi Xiao, but she actually had a reproachful tone, "You let her daydream?" ”
Bi Xiao looked at Yan Liwu and then at Wen Moqing, shook his head and leaned back, indicating that Wen Moqing didn't know it, but the hidden expectations in his eyes did not escape Wen Moqing's sharp gaze.
"I once entrusted a thing to Bi Xiao for safekeeping, that thing is now in your house, that is, Dingyuan Palace, it just so happens that I want to take that thing to determine some things, so I have to visit and disturb for a few days. In addition, I also want to see your brother's illness, even if it is only a little possibility, I also hope to do my best to compensate for some of the blood debt owed by the Blue Lotus King. "I have prepared enough reasons to leave my worries in advance, and I am full of confidence in responding.
Wen Moqing still refused, and her expression gradually became impatient: "I said that I would never let you step into the palace half a step, don't be delusional." ”
Wen Moqing's brother was crippled by King Qinglian, and his mother also died innocently and tragically, and this hatred was temporarily suppressed because of his unclear identity; But other people may not have such a stomach and vision like Wen Moqing, and the reason why Wen Moqing refused to let Yan leave the worry and go to Dingyuan Mansion has long been clearly stated, in order not to irritate his brother, he will no longer add another wound to Wen Mohong's already dark and dull life.
"Don't worry, I've considered your brother's problem, and naturally there is a way to solve it." Yan Liwu took a deep breath, and his voice was a little lower, "You gentlemen have great powers, it shouldn't be difficult to find someone to help me change my appearance, as for you are afraid that your brother will hear my voice, this is easier to do - since I stepped into the Dingyuan Palace, I will 'become' a dumb doctor, and I talk with paper and pen when I see a doctor, so I don't have to worry about being heard by your brother." ”
Wen Mohong is blind and can't see people, King Dingyuan may not be in the mansion, and the other subordinates are not familiar with the Qinglian King, and the possibility of being recognized is very small.
Is it appropriate to do so?
Wen Moqing was a little hesitant.
"Senior brother has always been cautious and cautious, especially when it comes to family members. Although this matter is risky, if it succeeds, it may also be an opportunity for Mo Hong, and it is important, and it is not too late to think about it before making a decision. Seeing Wen Moqing vacillating between agreeing and disagreeing, Bi Xiao's speech added a lot of support to Yan Liwu - she is one of Wen Mohong's closest people, and she is also the best candidate to be regarded as Wen's daughter-in-law, and Bi Xiao even has more say than Wen Moqing on whether to agree to Yan Liwu to meet Wen Mohong.
With the intimate sisterhood between Bi Xiao and Yan Liwu, Bi Xiao must stand on the side of Yan Liwu, Wen Moqing also holds a trace of luck and hopes that Yan Liwu can really bring a turnaround, and finally nodded slowly after pondering for a while: "Okay, I'll give you a chance, only this once, if you mess up, not only will you be kicked out, I will also make you pay the corresponding price, understand?" ”
"It's a deal."
Wen Moqing's threat did not have any intimidating power against Yan Liwu, and he nodded in agreement without hesitation, turned around and winked at Bi Xiao.
The closest sister, the most trusted friend, if she can bring a turnaround to Wen Mohong with what she knows and learns, she doesn't care about pretending to be dumb for a few days or being wronged.

Qinglan Garden is a very small garden in the northwest corner of the Yuanguo Imperial Palace, because many years ago there was a court maid who committed suicide here, and then there are often ghosts and ghosts, and there are very few people who dare to come here on weekdays, even during the day.
Wen Moshu sat in Qinglan Yuan for a long time with a fox fur, and when the snow began to fall in the sky again, there was an even and steady sound of footsteps outside.
"General Yun, I'm really tired of you, you always have to run around in and out of the palace." Wen Moshu coughed twice, got up and smiled and greeted the coming general Yun Jiuzhong, his sickly cheeks were three points clearer.
Yun Jiuzhong hurriedly supported Wen Moshu, and pushed him back into the rattan chair with half a push: "Don't move, sit well, can you move around with this body?" The next time you need to meet again, let me know in advance, don't let yourself wait in the snow, and don't be afraid of the cold. ”
"Well, this year is much better than usual." Wen Moshu still smiled kindly, picked up the stove and sat down, "It's inconvenient to meet in the palace, I don't want to be suspected, so I can only choose a barren place like Qinglan Garden, but fortunately, there is snow today but it is very warm, and I don't feel uncomfortable after sitting for a while." By the way, General Yun, have you inquired about the things entrusted to you a few days ago? ”
Carefully tightening the ribbon around the neckline of the fox fur for Wen Moshu, Yun Jiuzhong's burly body stood up straight again, and his expression was cheerful: "When have I dragged on the things delivered by His Highness?" Chu Gongzi and the white-haired boy went to me to find out clearly, they both went to Anzhou by car, the two of them almost walked back and forth, and the white-haired boy was faster. ”
"I'm not surprised that Chu resigned from Anzhou, he has some concerns about me and Miss Yan, and he will say it sooner or later; What did Lian Song do in Anzhou? It stands to reason that he and Miss Yan should not know each other, unless even he is ordered by Concubine Yun. Wen Moshu's smile faded, and the fingers attached to the hand stove turned pale from too much force. After pondering for a moment, Wen Moshu remembered another thing: "Did General Yun ask about the expedition?" Mo Zheng has been restless in the past few days, for fear that he will be sent to lead troops to fight, and the other princes are also panicking. ”
Yun Jiuzhong stood next to the rattan chair, his eyes swept at the empty door of Qinglan Garden, and his voice was slightly deep: "It's not bad with His Royal Highness's guess, the emperor basically hasn't asked about the situation of the Northern Expedition army recently, but has said five times or three times in the court that the princes should lead by example, and also said that men should join the army and kill the enemy with guns, and I don't know which evil they committed." ”
"The emperor is saying this to the princes, firstly, to warn us that if we want to compete for the throne, we must first have meritorious achievements, otherwise we should not try to shake his position; Second, it also forced the princes to retreat, so that the civil and military officials were disappointed in the princes who did not dare to go into battle to kill the enemy, so that the emperor would have more reason not to establish the prince. As if he had already guessed that this would be the result, Wen Moshu behaved extremely indifferently, only occasionally a trace of tiredness flashed in his eyes, and the cough was still not for a while, which made Yun Jiuzhong feel uncomfortable when he heard it.
"His Highness's illness is getting worse and worse every year, and what he says is better, it is basically to relieve the hearts of others." Yun Jiuzhong frowned mixed with a few white brows, and tightened his fur fur tightly, "Back then, Niangniang would always preach to His Highness when she was there, so Your Highness could listen to the convergence and convergence, but now that Niangniang is gone, the Chen family can't control His Highness, if it goes on like this, does His Highness want to fold his own Yang Shou?" If His Royal Highness insists on this, then I have nothing to say, and Kaichun doesn't want to take care of the forbidden military camp anymore, so he simply resigns and returns to his hometown, and rushes to the Demon Mountain in Monan with a knife in armor to grab medicine. ”
Yun Jiuzhong was angry when he said this, but Wen Moshu's face changed sharply, and his hurried tone was full of panic: "Absolutely not!" I said, if General Yun dares to break into the Demon Mountain, I will dare to die to show you! ”
The word "death" was bitten extremely hard by Wen Moshu, and there was no joke at all, Yun Jiuzhong was startled, and hurriedly stroked Wen Moshu's back and persuaded slowly: "Your Highness, don't worry, don't worry!" I'm just saying angry words, why is Your Highness still serious? That demon mountain is not the place where I said to break in, not to mention that my old arms and legs are no longer as brave as they used to be, even if I can really be young again, ten of them together can't get the immortal medicine, how can I be confused and sent to death? ”
Wen Moshu rarely loses his temper, but once this temperament is stubborn, it is difficult to press, and he was provoked by Yun Jiuzhong for such a time, and he couldn't slow down even if Yun Jiuzhong explained for a long time, his face was still pale and his wheezing was heavy. Yun Jiuzhong knew that his words and mistakes made Wen Mo Shu's qi and blood churn, and if he was not careful, he would aggravate his condition, so he rummaged through Wen Moshu's pocket sleeves in a hurry, and found a medicine bottle with a gold seal before he let out a sigh, poured out the pill and was about to send it to Wen Mo Shu's mouth.
"General Yun, this can't be eaten." Wen Moshu barely suppressed the cold churning in his chest, shook his head and pushed Yun Jiuzhong's hand away, his eyes darkened, and his voice was much lower, "This is sent by Empress Jingyi to the Imperial Pharmacy." ”
Yun Jiuzhong was slightly stunned, and gasped after figuring out the problem.
Empress Jingyi is the queen of the first emperor's palace, timid and ignorant, and can be guaranteed to this day because King Qinglian disdained to fight for fame, and now Wen Jingyuan respects her as the saint Ming Zhao Empress Jingyi is just for the people of the world to see, to say that her powerful position is just an empty name. How could such a former queen who was in the palace and didn't dare to speak, dare not offend people, and escaped into Buddhism to chant scriptures all day long, how could she suddenly care about other princes who had no feelings?
Yun Jiuzhong naturally didn't believe that it was kindness, thinking that Empress Jingyi was not close to her own son, let alone being close to Wen Moshu, and it was self-evident who was behind the scenes to send medicine.
"Your Highness said that this medicine can't be eaten, could it be ......" Yun Jiuzhong hesitated for a while, and then found another blue and white porcelain vase from Wen Moshu's sleeve. Wen Moshu flipped through his sleeve, coughed a few times, and his expression became more and more numb, but Yun Jiuzhong's face turned dark, and his iron fist clenched: "This medicine is nominally a cure, but in fact it is harmful, right?" No wonder His Highness's condition is good and bad, and he is forced to swallow poison every day, this kind of thing is simply ...... It's not human! ”
Wen Moshu smiled bitterly, hugged the hand stove and sighed: "Poison is not enough, it is probably some medicine that is related to cold." Occasionally, the emperor would summon me to the imperial study or the dormitory, and ask about the medicine sent by Empress Jingyi during the conversation, and the words were very earnest. ”
"During this period of time, His Highness's body has gradually deteriorated, and this medicine is also causing trouble?"
"Hmm. However, thanks to the blessing of this medicine, I don't need to go to the court to report my illness recently, and the emperor has no reason to announce my visit. On weekdays, I only carry this medicine on my body to fill it, and when I cough, it is still the medicine prescribed by the girl. Wen Moshu gently took back the porcelain bottle, carefully put it away, and winked at Yun Jiuzhong a little mischievously, "This medicine is precious, General Yun is careless, it's better not to touch it." ”
The relationship between Yan Liwu and Wen Moshu Yun Jiuzhong learned something from Chen's mouth, but at the moment, there are many troubles and the situation is worrying, Wen Moshu can still joke lightly, but Yun Jiuzhong is worried and happy, and he doesn't know how to react for a while.
After standing in a daze for a long time, Yun Jiuzhong's anger in his heart dissipated a little, and he helped Wen Moshu to stand up from the rattan chair: "It's cold outside, Your Highness should go back early, I will let the Chen family convey anything." Recently, His Royal Highness has continued to pretend to be sick, and he will wait for the emperor's idea of sending the prince to the expedition to pass. ”
Wen Mo slowly raised his steps and pressed Yun Jiuzhong's arm, frowning slightly and worrying in his face.
"Since he will secretly instruct Empress Jingyi to send me 'medicine', then the emperor should not choose me, a prince who may die of illness at any time, to go on the expedition. General Yun, I'm worried about Mo Zheng, if I can't find a way to invite Boss Jun into the palace to take care of him, I'm afraid that Mo Zheng's simple impulse will make him the first person to be erased. ”
