Chapter 2: Cutie Evergreen
Even Zhao Jiufu has been in the palace for a long time, and he didn't expect things to have such a big reversal.
According to his thoughts, there were flower pots on this pavilion that fell for no reason, and they also injured His Majesty, and the people in charge must be held responsible. In addition, those people should also be brought to the Shen Criminal Division for interrogation to see if there are any spies mixed in and deliberately unfavorable to Your Majesty.
Zhao Jiufu originally planned to order a little eunuch to go to the Siyuan Bureau with the palace people, find the steward and tell him about it, so that he could automatically and consciously send people to the Shen Yuan Division.
But they never expected that this palace maid who saved the car by herself was actually the culprit they wanted to investigate!
If you really want to calculate it, if you have merit and fault, and if you don't have merit or fault, you will naturally be punished.
But it is also impossible to pull it out and kill it with a cane.
How will Your Majesty decide?
Zhao Jiufu secretly glanced at Huo Yanzhi, but found that the latter had a frightened look on his face, and turned his head and stared straight in the direction of the pavilion, his fingers trembled, and he fainted again without paying attention.
What's worse is that Huo Yanzhi just moved a little big, and accidentally fell from the chariot, and his head slammed straight towards the bluestone slab.
That dull movement made everyone present tremble, especially Zhao Jiufu.
"Oh my God, Your Majestyβdon't you little bunnies have eyes?"
While scolding, he went to help Huo Yanzhi, and when he helped him up, there was an inconspicuous red mark on his forehead, which was slowly turning dark blue.
But he felt a little sympathy with Zhi Wei, who was kneeling beside him and his forehead was already bleeding.
Zhao Jiufu was so distressed that he and the little eunuchs worked together to stuff Huo Yanzhi into the palace, and only had time to explain Wang Dexi's two sentences, and hurried back to Qiande Palace.
When everyone was far away, Zhiwei was still kneeling still.
Wang Dexi glanced at her twice, and said with some pity: "Get up." His Majesty doesn't say anything about this, so he will do what he wants. We are all errands at the bottom, and we are considerate of each other. β
Zhi Wei got up stiffly, her hands and feet were cold, she only nodded indiscriminately, and led Wang Dexi to the Siyuan Bureau.
Nothing to say all the way.
Although her face was still calm, her heart was already in a mess, and her brain seemed to be filled with a mess. His Majesty opened his mouth to reward her for a while, but it was finally stirred up, but now it cooled down again and condensed into a ball.
Is she dead?
Why did Your Majesty faint suddenly? Are you angry with her?
If there was still a trace of luck in Zhiwei's heart, there was no more left at this time.
The wisteria flower pot she took care of smashed His Majesty's head, and His Majesty was so angry that he fell on his head again, adding to the crime, she already felt that she couldn't look at the sun tomorrow.
Back at the Siyuan Bureau, Wang Dexi's tone was not so polite when he spoke to Steward Li.
He is an apprentice brought out by Zhao Jiufu, he is clever and clever, and he is also able to do things properly, and he can please His Majesty, and most of the palaces and bureaus also know his name. Qingshui Yamen like the Siyuan Bureau, even the higher-grade Steward Li has to be respectful when he sees him, after all, he is a little celebrity in front of the emperor.
After Wang Dexi recounted the incident coldly and reservedly, he asked with a straight face: "Who are the palace people involved?" Except for this Zhiwei girl, let's bring out the others one by one. β
Knowing that His Majesty was smashed in the head by a flower pot, Steward Li was so frightened that the six gods had no owner, but fortunately, His Majesty didn't seem to have the intention of even doing it with him.
He hurriedly explained: "Father-in-law Mingjian, the palace person who is responsible for sprinkling and sweeping the Lianbi Pavilion on weekdays is called Hua Ying, and it is Lianzhu who is responsible for tending to the flowers and plants nearby, but the wisteria flowers on the pavilion are all planted by Zhiwei. There are only three people in total, father-in-law, look at it, whether to tie it up and send it over or ......"
Wang Dexi was a little speechless: "It's just three palace women, just don't tie up the past, is it possible to dare to run away?" Got wings and flew? β
Steward Li hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, my father-in-law is reasonable." In this case, I took two people to accompany my father-in-law to send someone over. β
While flattering Wang Dexi without a trace, he ordered someone to bring Hua Ying and Lian Zhu, and he didn't even look at Zhi Wei, as if the latter was a dead man.
On the way to the Shen Penal Division, Hua Ying and Lian Zhu were panicked, and they didn't know what was going on and what they had done wrong.
Hua Ying begged Steward Li with a crying voice, but the latter just said coldly: "I went to the Shen Criminal Division, whatever the father-in-law asked, you will answer honestly!" Others are less careful! β
Lian Zhu saw that Zhiwei's face was pale, her eyes were blank, and there was a trace of desperate death on her face, and she was shocked.
She tried hard to make eye contact with Zhiwei, but the latter only gave her a reassuring smile and fell back into a fugue state.
As soon as they entered the Criminal Division, the three were separated and went to a separate small room for trial.
There was no window in the room, and it was dim, except for a half-lit oil lamp, which shone on the chains and a dry torture instrument on the wall, adding a little horror.
Zhi Wei only glanced at it, then lowered her eyes and continued to be in a daze.
After a while, footsteps sounded, and a lean man with a horse's face walked in, but his mouth was soft and sharp.
"Yo, isn't this Miss Zhiwei? Meet again. β
Zhi Wei was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes and looked at it, and a helpless smile hung on the corner of her mouth.
"Grandpa Ma, it's been a long time."
The father-in-law smiled and said: "This is rarely heard in our Punishment Division, and it is very fresh." β
Zhi Wei knows that few palace people who have entered the Shen Criminal Division can get out alive, and even if they do, they will definitely be honest and low-key with their tails between their legs, and it is indeed very rare for her to enter the Shen Criminal Division twice in less than two years.
"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense, let's get straight to the point, Miss Zhiwei?"
As soon as the interrogation in the Shenyuan Division began, Huo Yanzhi in the Qiande Palace woke up.
Zhao Jiufu wiped his tears and came up: "Your Majesty, you have finally woken up, worried about the death of the slave and maid." The slave maid has already sent a letter to the harem, and the queen mother and the queen mother will probably come in a while......"
Huo Yanzhi was in a trance by his crying, and when he heard that the Queen Mother and Queen Mother were coming, he couldn't help but tremble.
Fortunately, he fell asleep for a while, and his vision seemed to be clearer than before, but it was still a little blurry compared to before the injury. After a while, he finally remembered what had happened before he fainted.
Huo Yanzhi swallowed his saliva, his eyes flashed and asked, "Cough, what did the Ten Thousand Imperial Doctors say?" β
The Wan Imperial Doctor, who was waiting outside, had already probed the pulse and seen the wound, and asked a few more questions at this moment, and finally smiled and packed the ticket with him, and within three or five days, this symptom of blurred vision should be able to disappear. Then he prescribed a very safe prescription, and finally suggested that Huo Yanzhi should rest for a few days.
As soon as Huo Yanzhi wanted to refuse, Zhao Jiufu choked up and said: "Your Majesty should take the dragon body as the most important, this injury is unusual, if there is any bane such as head wind, it will be Your Majesty who will suffer in the future!" If Your Majesty has three long and two short, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother should be worried, and the slaves and maids will never be blamed! β
In the whole palace, Huo Yanzhi is most afraid of the queen mother, followed by the queen.
In desperation, he could only accept the earnest care of the imperial doctor and the personal eunuch. Anyway, the affairs of the DPRK have not been busy recently, and it is not a big deal to let the cabinet do its own work after two or three days.
Huo Yanzhi held the brocade quilt and stared blankly at a certain point in the void.
He was thinking about the few conversations he heard before he fainted.
"Ahh I feel sorry for my family Weiwei, there is a lot of blood on my forehead, and I am going to break my appearance~ How will I find my in-laws in the future? β
"Sister, let me be respectful, this is the emperor of the human race, and we are not allowed to blaspheme a little flower at will, otherwise he will be curse......d by God in the future."
Although his eyes are a little weak, his ears can still hear clearly.
After fainting and waking up for the first time, he faintly heard some noisy sounds around him, but because of course he was surrounded by Zhao Jiufu and others, and there was a doctor talking there, the chatter was not very obvious. But he heard the last two sentences very clearly!
Huo Yanzhi suddenly felt cold in his hands and feet, and he had a bad guess in his heart.
It's not going to be a ghost in the blue sky, right?
No, no, I'm the true son of the dragon, and I have my own dragon qi to protect my body!
Even if he did bump into it, he didn't have to be afraid of such a little ghost!
After thinking about it carefully, Huo Yanzhi felt that something was wrong again.
The two voices sounded quite young, women's voices, like two clusters of wisteria hanging from a pavilion?
Yes, they seem to say "a little flower"?
The corners of Huo Yanzhi's mouth twitched for a long time before he could barely come up with an inference that seemed ridiculous, but was actually very absurd.
What are the flowers and trees?
Otherwise, how could he hear them talking?
Or did he just hurt his head, so he had some auditory hallucinations, and those words were all his own imagination?
But he never reads this kind of bizarre story, where can he imagine such an outrageous thing?
Huo Yanzhi was stunned for a while, and Zhao Jiufu came with the decoctioned medicine.
Smelling the strong smell of medicine, Huo Yan subconsciously frowned, rolled his eyes, and excused himself to be bored in his illness, which books to read, and asked Zhao Jiufu to find them for himself, and complained that the little eunuchs were careless, and he even damaged his treasured books last time.
Zhao Jiufu has been serving him for more than ten years, and he knows very well that this master doesn't like to take medicine when he is a child, so he is a little hesitant to leave.
Huo Yanzhi picked up the medicine bowl as if nothing happened, frowned and began to drink.
Seeing that His Majesty's throat moved a few times, Zhao Jiufu was relieved to go out to find a book for His Majesty who was "recuperating", but as soon as he left, Huo Yanzhi jumped up quickly and poured the remaining half bowl of medicinal juice into the Wannian Qing bonsai on the side.
This is Huo Yanzhi's usual trick, he feels that he is strong, and he has always been able to pour it out without taking medicine. In case Zhao Jiufu found out, he also asked people to change bonsai from time to time.
Anyway, Imperial Doctor Wan and Imperial Doctor Jia have said that this is just a flesh wound, rub some bruising medicine on the wound, and everything will be fine after a few days when the bruise is healed, and he has also drunk half a bowl of these disgusting bitter medicinal juices, and the effect should be enough!
However, today's repetition of this trick has brought him a greater impact.
The moment the white vapor of the medicinal juice fell, Huo Yanzhi clearly heard a confused groan, like someone's reaction when he was awakened by a sound sleep.
He froze and glanced at the empty room, and the hairy feeling spread to his heart again.
"Woo woo ~ scald me! Which bastard poured hot water on me with a thousand knives? I have long heard that the master of this palace has a tyrannical temperament, and he can toss a pot of flowers and plants to death in two or three months, but now I have seen it. Woo woo, I want to go back to the Imperial Garden, I want to go back to the countryside~~"
Huo Yanzhi, who had a "tyrannical temperament", turned his neck stiffly and stared at Wan Nianqing, who was as quiet as a chicken on the surface and actually complained repeatedly.
Very good!
At the very least, a series of his questions are now answered.
He didn't have a problem with auditory hallucinations, but he had an extra problem of being able to hear these "monsters" talking......
After all, he was a person who had been an emperor for a few years, and Huo Yanzhi was only shocked for a while, and then calmed down.
He whispered to the ten thousand young people: "You, are you a monster?" β
Wan Nianqing's self-conscious complaint suddenly stopped, and a question mark slowly appeared in his heart.
Huo Yanzhi saw that it didn't speak, and said: "I didn't mean to, I'll find someone to take care of your branches and leaves in a while, okay?" β
Wan Nian Qing Zhi Ye trembled slightly, and said in disbelief: "You, you, can you actually hear me?" β
Just when Huo Yanzhi was teasing this young man with great interest, the interrogation of Zhi Wei in the Prudent Criminal Division was nearing the end.
