Chapter 473: The Empress
As expected, that night, Zhou Hexi and others suffered the first assassination, and the enemy was all dressed in Xiliang, menacing, and killed. Xiao Yu was well prepared in advance, showed weakness on the spot, led all the enemies into the encirclement, and annihilated them all with lightning speed.
This fight lasted until dawn, the huge smell of blood made Zhou Hexi nauseated, Xiao Yu personally drove Fengyu to "escape" the encirclement, and walked to a high post with a wide field of vision and light clouds.
The sun slowly rose, the dew on the weeds and wild flowers quickly evaporated, and the agate removed the curtain on the phoenix and took it to the river to clean, and it took a lot of effort to wash the blood spots on it.
The team has experienced five such attacks, and this is not counting the various poisoning incidents...... In short, the group was able to come to Xiliang Shengdu intact in the end, and Zhou Hexi thought it was a complete miracle.
Xiliang Shengdu, at the feet of the Son of Heaven. As soon as he entered the city, Zhou Hexi wondered, would her husband Fusang attack them again? After all, this is the last chance to meet the empress before entering the palace.
Prime Minister Babuzan sneered and told Zhou Hexi and others that the commander of the Shengdu forbidden army is General Linghua, and he is no more loyal to His Majesty, Fusang has failed to buy Linghua several times, and before entering the city, she has received a letter from General Linghua, Shengdu has been arranged by General Linghua like an iron bucket, and if Fusang does it again, he will only throw himself into the net.
From this point of view, General Linghua is a hole card of the empress, the kind that is quite confident, Zhou Hexi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
That night, they stayed in the Yingfan Pavilion, and early the next morning, Zhou Hexi wore the makeup of the Xiliang lady and entered the palace with the escort team of the Xiliang delegation under the leadership of the Xiliang Mission.
Due to the empress's unwellness, she had been out of power for more than a month, so the "meeting" was held in the empress's bedroom.
Along the way, not to mention the lights everywhere, the palace people were also dressed very festively, and it can be seen that in order to welcome the arrival of her as a princess, the empress spent a lot of thought.
At the first meeting, there was no excitement, no tears of joy, not even the imaginary joy of emotion, Mansha dragged his heavy body and struggled to get up, and with the help of the palace people, he barely sat up straight and was saluted by the Great Zhou mission. When her eyes came, Zhou Hexi found that the other party was blind.
Babuzan screamed, and instantly became a tearful person.
His Majesty's eyes were still fine when she left, and in just two months, they turned out to be like this!
The lady told her that since she had not been able to find an antidote, the toxins in His Majesty's body could only be controlled by other medicines, but the medicine was not right, and the control effect was not good, and now the toxins had begun to invade the meridians, and His Majesty was blind ten days ago.
Babuzan didn't have time to wipe his tears, and immediately knelt down in front of Zhou Hexi, "Please also ask the lady to quickly treat Your Majesty." ”
Yan Ji was in the team, Zhou Hexi didn't dare to delay, and immediately ordered Onyx to go outside the hall to invite Yan Ji.
Not long after, Yan Ji came in with a medicine box on his back, and told the people of Xiliang after a simple pulse check for the empress, "There is a rule for this doctor to cure diseases and save people, and outsiders cannot be present......
"Understand, this is the rule of the Wind God Valley." Babuzan immediately led the people of Xiliang to retreat.
As soon as she was halfway back, the female official saw that Zhou Hexi and Xiao Yu were motionless, and had no intention of leaving, so she immediately questioned, and Yan Ji immediately flew her with a knife, "Sheng Wang is the uncle of the doctor, and the princess is the daughter of His Majesty Xiliang, is she an outsider?" ”
The female officer's face froze, then she bowed her head and quickly left.
The three of them already had a tacit understanding, Yan Ji started, Zhou Hexi went into battle, and Xiao Yu was responsible for transporting "energy". However, the empress was just blind and her mind was still clear, so Yan Ji quietly sprinkled a little ecstasy incense in front of the empress's nostrils, and soon, the other party fell asleep.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Hexi hurriedly put the mutton fat jade bottle on the empress's lips, covered it with one hand, and held it tightly by Xiao Yu with the other hand.
Not long after, black qi flew out of the empress's body at a speed visible to the naked eye, and lingered around the mutton fat jade bottle, Yan Ji was anxious, "Why hasn't there been any movement yet?" ”
He thought that the movement was that the patient was vomiting, vomiting blood or something, Zhou Hexi shook his head at him, Xiao Yu glared at him unhappily, Yan Ji stepped aside and stopped talking.
Soon, a layer of sweat appeared on the patient's forehead, Yan Ji finally found a place to use, and quickly washed a handkerchief to wipe it, and after wiping it about five or six times, the sweat gradually decreased until it was not seen at all. At this point, the black qi that lingered around the mutton fat jade bottle was nearing its end, and it quickly disappeared without a trace.
Seeing that the empress was about to wake up, at the suggestion of Zhou Hexi, Yan Ji shook in front of her nostrils again, and the incense entered the hole, and she fell into a deep sleep again.
After that, the three of them began to set up the scene, the gauze stained with black blood was scattered all over the ground, more than a dozen towels were set up on the basin shelf, and there were a little more blood spots on the floor......
After doing all this, Xiao Yu opened the door of the dormitory, and outside the hall, Babuzan and the others rushed immediately when they heard the sound of the door opening, especially the female official, who rushed in without permission, and happened to bump into Zhou Hexi.
"Ah, the lady forgives her sins! The minister was too worried about His Majesty, so he ...... I hope that the princess will forgive her sins! ”
Zhou Hexi was silent, and Babuzan preemptively said: "Mulberry leaves, the princess is my Xiliang prince, can you cover it with a single forgiveness of the prince?" ”
The female official named Mulberry Ye knelt on the ground and begged for Zhou Hexi's forgiveness.
Xiao Yu immediately took Zhou Hexi's hand, and the two walked out of the hall together, ignoring the reckless female official, at this time, Yan Ji also carried the medicine box on his back and walked out of the inner room with a dirty body, "Prime minister, please also order someone to clean the inner room and help His Majesty change clothes." ”
Babuzan responded.
……
Zhou Hexi had just breathed a few breaths of fresh air, and from a distance, he saw a man dressed in a gorgeous robe and wearing a golden crown leading a group of palace people to come in a hurry.
At that moment, she mischievously replaced Fusang with Xiao Yu, her tense face could no longer hold it, and her forehead suddenly pressed against Xiao Yu's arm and laughed stupidly.
Xiao Yu, who also saw Fusang's arrangement, naturally understood what Zhou Hexi was laughing at, he quietly twisted it according to her back, and said in a low voice: "Little conscienceless, dare to think indiscriminately, see how I clean you up at night......"
Zhou Hexi was frightened and immediately returned to a serious look, lest Xiao Yu say anything "earth-shattering" again.
After a while, Fusang walked in front of him, Zhou Hexi and Xiao Yu stood side by side, the two sides pretended not to know each other, and no one had the intention of saluting.
Fusang looked Zhou Hexi up and down, and finally fixed on her face that resembled the empress, and the expression in her eyes became more and more complicated......
