Lin Beifeng, the commander of the White Tiger Battalion, was cut by a rank for abuse of power, and the soldiers responsible for guarding the imperial capital and the palace were also changed from the White Tiger Battalion to the Xuanwu Battalion.

Gao Minggong is a neat and thoughtful middle-aged man, and when he heard that Wen Moshu's illness may have been caused by someone using his hands and feet in the medicine, he immediately asked Chen to take out all the medicines that Wen Moshu took on weekdays, and stayed up all night to identify whether there was a problem with various medicines.

"There are prescriptions for other medicines, and there are no major problems, but this bottle is a little strange, I can't chase the prescription, and no one knows what it is." When the dark circles under his eyes reappeared, the senior medical officer took a golden thin-necked round belly bottle to Yan Liwu to see, "That's it, I don't know if it's the medicine prescribed by the Red Lotus girl to the second prince, or is it someone else?" ”

Yan Liwu opened the medicine bottle and sniffed it close to his nose, frowning slightly: "This medicine is not prepared by me, and the smell is obviously different." ”

"Then the problem may be with the drug. It's a pity that I can't find out which herbs this pill is made of now, otherwise you can prescribe the right medicine according to the ingredients, which can make the second prince recover faster. ”

Seeing that the senior medical officer shook his head regretfully, his words flashed with a flash of worry, revealing a silent smile of confidence: "Do you just need to know how to refine medicinal materials?" No problem, it's not that hard for me. ”

"Oh? Can the Red Lotus girl tell? The senior medical officer was surprised, and looked at Yan Liwu with curiosity.

"My sense of taste is more sensitive than that of ordinary people, and when I was a child, my grandfather often let me taste some medicinal herbs, and I can determine which one it is based on the taste, as long as it is not particularly rare and I have not seen it, I can basically distinguish it." Yan Liwu took a deep breath and poured out a pill from the bottle, and without waiting for Yin Junbai, who was startled, stepped forward to stop it, raised his head and threw the pill into his mouth and chewed it carefully.

After a moment, Yan Liwu spit out a mouthful of residue.

"Sam Yellow, Starling, Gyeonggi Grass...... Most of them are warm medicines that ward off cold and replenish qi, but there is only one that I can't taste what it is. The taste of this medicine is a little special, like the taste of the puppet vine flower root, but it is not as vicious as the puppet vine flower root, and there is a faint astringent feeling of the lotus. Carefully explained the ingredients of the pills, and threw the last question to the senior medical officer.

The senior medical officer is a celebrity with outstanding medical skills in Dingyuan County, and because he doesn't like fame and fortune, he is a leisurely medical officer in Dingyuan County, but his ability is comparable to that of the imperial doctor in the palace, and even surpasses it. Listening to the names of the various medicinal materials that Yan Liwu could identify, especially when he heard the final description, the senior medical officer couldn't help but furrow his brows and gasp: "This smell and taste must be the Water Soul Grass." ”

Water Soul Grass, this name is the first time I have heard of it, so I have to hand over my expectations to the senior medical officer.

The senior medical officer did not sell Guan Zi, and his face was serious and serious: "The Water Soul Grass is one of the medicinal materials that is most yin and cold, and some people have used it to treat cold with poison, and the effect is not bad, but it is limited to patients with mild cold symptoms. The second prince was born with cold and deficiency of qi and blood, and what he was most afraid of was this kind of medicinal herb, which would cause great damage to his body after only taking it a few times. ”

"In other words, it is very likely that the second prince suddenly fell ill because of this medicine?" Yan Li's face did not move, but the two fists in his sleeves were quietly clenched.

Sure enough, someone wanted to assassinate Wen Moshu.

"Senior Medical Officer, how should the situation be adjusted for His Highness now? His cold illness is much worse than before, and if he doesn't adjust it in time, he is afraid that his condition will get worse and worse. "In the face of an experienced professional doctor, he humbly asked for advice, and did not claim to be guilty of the credit for tasting the medicine just now.

"The cold of the second prince comes from the strong medicine, which stimulates the latent cold qi in the five internal organs, and it should be adjusted with the medicine to ward off the cold." Sighing slightly, the senior medical officer looked a little regretful, "Since the Red Lotus girl knows how to use medical skills, she should understand that illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread, and it is quite difficult for the second prince to completely recover to its original state, and it is even more difficult to remove the root of this cold disease, unless you ......"

Yan Li's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "Unless what?" Is there hope for a cure? ”

The senior medical officer nodded but shook his head, his expression was slightly dazed: "Actually, whether it should be regarded as a cure or not, I can't say for sure, after all, it's just a legend." In the past, the evil doctor Zhou did not cross the world and returned to seclusion, and went to Monan with a lot of rare and strange medicines in the world, and planted those elixirs on the demon mountain with the climate at four o'clock, which is said to have a strange medicine for the treatment of cold disease ghost python strain. If you can get this ghost python strain, maybe you can cure the cold disease and yin poison in the body that the second prince was born with. ”

Hearing that Wen Moshu's cold illness may be cured, he was very happy to leave the worries, and wanted to continue to ask about the news of the miracle medicine, but Yin Junbai, who didn't want to stand on the side, suddenly interjected, full of anger: "What are you talking about?" Does the senior medical officer want to kill someone?! ”

"Junbai." Yan Li stopped Yin Junbai with a low snort, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart - the senior medical officer just explained to her the ghost python strain, how did he harm her?

Xu is senior medical officer also understood that what he said was not appropriate, and hurriedly apologized to Yin Junbai and Yan Liwu, and then no matter how Yan Liwu asked, the senior medical officer did not say a word about the demon mountain and the ghost python strain.

After identifying the source of Wen Moshu's aggravation, the senior medical officer quickly wrote out the right prescription, and Yun Jiuzhong personally went to a credible pharmacy outside the palace to grab the medicine, and boiled the medicine and so on. In three days, after the nine pairs of medicines, Wen Moshu's complexion gradually improved, and he no longer coughed up blood and had the strength, and Yun Jiuzhong was so happy that he would invite the senior medical officer to eat a big meal.

On the day when Yun Jiuzhong and the senior medical officer were gone, Wen Moshu found an excuse to take the Chen family away, and slowly walked to the small garden outside the Tianque Hall with the support of Yan Liwu, looking at the snow and the blue sky, and a gentle smile gradually appeared on his face.

"The New Year is approaching, and the emperor will be very lively at that time, I really hope you can stay until that time and accompany me to visit the lantern market."

"I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up this year. Said that when your illness improves, I will rush to Qinglian Palace, if words don't count, Wen Moqing will probably kill me until the imperial capital takes me away. Yan Liwu joked, his expression became calm and tranquil because of Wen Moshu's gentleness, "I don't know when I will come back, at that time, Wen Moqing also said that he planned to send me to other countries, and then return quietly when the wind and waves are calm, I don't know if he is joking or serious." ”

Wen Moshu's smile froze for a moment, and he coughed lightly: "It's serious." We discussed this before you left with him. ”

Sure enough, Wen Moshu had already known Wen Moqing's plans.

The little temptation to leave the worries in exchange for a little disappointment, but she was not desperate, she could somewhat understand Wen Moshu's thoughts - as the Qinglian King, she would definitely not be able to be with him, so she could only choose to clear her identity, even if she wanted to be separated for a short time, it was helpless.

However, what Yan Liwu is really worried about is not this, but an eternal question - after going through many storms and rains, and spending several springs, summers, autumns and winters, will they still cherish each other as they do now?

"Liwu, I remember telling you that I was different from others a long time ago, and I have always been very envious and appreciative of the Qinglian King." The emotions that flashed in Yan Liwu's eyes did not escape Wen Moshu's sight, he raised his lips and smiled, and gently put Yan Liwu's hand in his palm, "I like to live a free and easy life, so every time I see King Qinglian, I am very envious of him without being imprisoned in the deep palace, and after seeing you, I understand another kind of freedom that is more worthy of envy." ”

"The word freedom has nothing to do with me, I can't even choose my identity." Yan Li shrugged his shoulders and smiled a little roughly.

Wen Moshu shook his head, his fingertips gently touching Yan Li's worried eyebrows: "What I said is here." Your thoughts and hearts are free, no one can restrain you, you will not revolve around your husband or heirs all your life like other women, and you will not be afraid of those rules of etiquette that bind people's hearts, so I envy you at first, and then ...... Then I indulged in it and couldn't extricate myself. ”

"It turns out that His Highness's true love is freedom, so can I take out the freedom in my head and give it to Your Highness?" Yan Liwu made a harmless joke, and reached out to tie Wen Mo's sparse fur cloak tightly.

It is rare that no one can be alone at such a close distance, Wen Moshu quietly looked at Yan Liwu clearly and his eyebrows and eyes were staring, and when he saw that Yan Liwu's cheeks were slightly red, he suddenly let out a low sigh, his arms went around his thin body, and he gently held Yan Liwu in his arms.

"Sometimes I wonder if I didn't have a prince. It doesn't matter if you want to be with the people you like, even if you want to cultivate the land and farm for a living, as long as you are free, you don't have to be forced to participate in any power schemes. Life in the palace is really tiring. ”

Wen Moshu was born with a cold disease, but in this cold and snowy place, his chest is still the most warm place to talk about worry.

Yan Liwu was a little at a loss, I didn't know whether to respond to Wen Moshu's sudden hug, he was still a noble and difficult prince, but at this moment the distance was so close, he didn't feel alienated at all.

Because both people yearn for freedom, and they can't help themselves because of the identity imposed by fate, they will attract each other, and their love is deep-rooted?

There are still too many things I don't understand about feelings.

"What can be done to make it easier for His Highness?" indulged in the warm embrace for a long time, and opened his mouth with sorrow.

"You don't have to do anything, that's fine, just protect yourself and give me peace of mind." The slender arms became tighter and tighter, Wen Mo closed his eyes, and gently buried his head in the neck of Yan Li.

The thick and gorgeous fox fur cloak slipped silently, hitting a handful of shallow snow and flying, and in a lonely snowflake, two people took advantage of each other's temperature to keep warm, as if they were intoxicated and enjoyed, although this moment was not worth mentioning compared to the unknown future.

A hundred paces away, behind the archway, the thin figure stood silently with his head down, unwilling to stare at the pair of beautiful people anymore, and his eyes showed a little sadness, until his nails pierced the skin of his palm and dripped the red blood on the snow, and then he quietly turned and left.
