Chapter 170: The Huo Family's Secret
When night fell and the noon gate was about to close, Zhuge Yuanba stepped on the time to come.
Zhuge Yuan was reinstated, and there were even rumors that he might go one step further and serve as the commander of the forbidden army, so the forbidden army guarding the noon gate was respectful and polite, and hurriedly entered the palace to make a statement.
The news reached Emperor Xia, who was reading a book, and when he heard that Zhuge Yuanba asked to see him, he immediately frowned and asked, "What happened when this guy entered the palace late at night?" ”
"Commander Zhuge didn't say it, he just said that it was a big matter, it was extremely urgent, and he must implore His Majesty to summon him! If not, he's gone! Hai Dafu said.
"Yo, it's a threat!"
can let him behave like this, Emperor Xia immediately thought of Xiao Rui, now that the Zhuge family and King Xian are tied together, there are only a handful of people in the entire capital who can invite him into the palace, and Xiao Rui is definitely one of them.
However, thinking of the recent military report sent by the champion Hou, the words are full of anger towards his younger brother, and he even married his daughter quietly, so what is his face as a father?
He also promised him to return to Beijing to report on his work during the New Year, and he didn't know what kind of good-looking drama he would cause when he came back. ”
When the news reached the noon gate, Zhuge Yuanba entered the palace with an old eunuch.
If Xiao Rui was here, he would definitely be shocked to find that this old eunuch was not Hua Tuo?
When did he get cleansed?
Hua Tuo would definitely say to him with resentment: "Isn't this His Highness's idea?" ”
If you want to hide the secret spy and bring Hua Tuo into the palace, even if Zhuge Commander is the commander of the Iron Dragon Cavalry, it is extremely difficult to do it, after all, Hua Tuo is a lot old, and he can't pretend to be a forbidden army or a guard. So Zhuge Yuanba had no choice but to let Hua Tuo shave off the beard that hung down to his chest and put on eunuch clothes.
Hey, don't say it, this dress is really like a eunuch.
If it weren't for the full amount of loyalty, Hua Tuo would never do such a thing, and his favorite beard would be gone? In other words, he is for Xiao Rui, and it can be regarded as true love.
Loving love.
When they came to the dormitory, the two entered the palace to meet each other.
Emperor Xia sat in front of the dragon case and read, glanced at Zhuge Yuanba, and said, "You still come to see you so late, what big deal can you have?" Is it running errands for your niece and son-in-law? It's up to you! ”
Zhuge Yuanba was speechless for an instant, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the Iron Dragon Cavalry has no battle to fight is the reason for Your Majesty, if you don't let go of your humble position to go to the border pass, how can your humble position have a big deal?" As for running errands, they are all in the service of the royal family, and His Majesty is embarrassed to ridicule his humble position? ”
Emperor Xia slammed the book on the table and scolded with a smile: "You, you have never lacked the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, just this temper, who dares to let you go to the border, you are also a fierce general who does not abide by military rules and discipline, and you have a group of arrogant soldiers under your command." Tell me, what's the matter! ”
Zhuge Yuan said domineeringly: "I am entrusted by King Xian, and I hereby bring a divine doctor into the palace." ”
Hua Tuo hurriedly came out of the ranks, bowed down and said: "Hua Tuo, grass people, meet my emperor, long live my emperor!" ”
Emperor Xia looked at Hua Tuo dressed as a eunuch and said with a smile: "Such a cunning King Xian, even I was kept in the dark, what about others?" Could it be that he left the capital and secretly turned back? ”
Hua Tuo said: "His Royal Highness really went to Pudu Temple to pray for His Majesty's incense, and he implored Zhuge to help and bring the grass people to treat His Majesty!" ”
Emperor Xia was stunned for a moment, and scolded with a smile: "This kid, it seems that he finally caught the opportunity to get out of the city, and it is estimated that he will not come back if he doesn't have fun, how can this be reasonable!" ”
The evil tyrants couldn't help but mutter: "You still talk about others, Your Majesty doesn't also..."
"What did Zhuge Aiqing say? Be louder! I can't hear you clearly! Emperor Xia glared and asked.
Zhuge Yuanba immediately became honest and said, "I didn't say anything about my humble position!" I don't dare to say it! His Majesty may have misheard it due to the effects of fever. ”
Emperor Xia glanced at him fiercely, then raised his arm and said, "Let me see the medical skills of the divine doctor praised by King Xian." ”
Hua Tuo stepped forward respectfully and took the pulse of Emperor Xia. Then he asked Hai Dafu about some things, he served Emperor Xia closely, and naturally knew a lot about Emperor Xia's food, clothing, and daily life.
After looking at and hearing the question, Hua Tuo retreated to his original position and said respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the grass people have already seen it." ”
"Oh? Have you ever seen the cause of my fever? Emperor Xia asked.
Hua Tuo said: "The grass people suspect that Your Majesty is deeply poisonous!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Hai Dafu hurriedly knelt down, trembling all over. As a palm-print eunuch who took care of Emperor Xia's food and clothing, His Majesty was poisoned, and he could not escape his guilt.
Zhuge Yuanba was also surprised, but when he saw Emperor Xia's face, he was not surprised.
Emperor Xia said: "Do you know what kind of poison it is?" ”
Hua Tuo said: "There are many poisons in the world, and the grass people don't know what kind of poison His Majesty has, but it can basically be judged that it is a kind of poisonous gas and the food taken by His Majesty, so that the poison entangles the body and induces fever and does not go away." Your Majesty, the grass people want to dare to ask one thing! ”
Emperor Xia smiled: "Ask, I forgive you for your innocence." ”
Hua Tuo asked, "Your Majesty, has you not gone to the toilet since you had a fever?" ”
Xia Huang nodded and said, "That's right." ”
Then he glanced at Hai Dafu, who was kneeling, and said, "Get up." ”
Hai Dafu hurriedly got up, and he recalled to himself that His Majesty had indeed not gone to the toilet in the past few days, but it was just a little convenient.
Hua Tuo continued: "The toxicity is accumulated in His Majesty's body, and it cannot be discharged, which is the reason for the constant fever. The grass people only need to prescribe a dose of heat-clearing and detoxifying laxatives to expel the toxicity from the body, and His Majesty's fever will naturally subside! ”
Emperor Xia smiled: "Sure enough, it's a miracle doctor, a companion of the sea, take the miracle doctor to write a prescription, you personally grab the medicine and boil the medicine, remember, don't let anyone know!" ”
"Yes!" Hai Dafu immediately received the order and took Hua Tuo down.
Only Zhuge Yuanba and Emperor Xia were left in the dormitory.
Xia Huang pointed to the chair and said, "Sit down!" ”
Zhuge Yuanba sat down and couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty isn't curious about who poisoned you?" ”
Emperor Xia asked rhetorically: "What's the use of being curious, can you find out?" ”
"So that's it? If you can inflict this poison now, you will be able to inflict deadly poison later! Zhuge Yuanba said.
Xia Huang shook his head with a smile and said, "Don't worry, this poison is relatively special, and the reason why it is not fatal is because it can only cause a certain impact on the body through the principle of yin and yang conflict, and this effect has limited damage to the body." Truly deadly poison or poison, once close to me, will be discovered by the forbidden army and the chamberlain, who will test it for me. Of course, there is another poison, which is accumulated over time, and this poison cannot be prevented, which is why I never consume the same dish and a tea for a long time! ”
Zhuge Yuan said domineeringly: "How can you feel that Your Majesty has long known the condition of your body?" ”
Emperor Xia did not answer him, but picked up the scroll and continued to read.
Zhuge Yuanba knew the profundity of Emperor Xia, and not answering this action was a kind of acquiescence. He couldn't help but praise, Your Majesty will always be Your Majesty!
It didn't take long for Hua Tuo to come back after writing the prescription, and Zhuge Yuanba also got up and said goodbye and left the palace.
At the same time, Xiao Rui and the three of them have gone south for seventy or eighty miles, came to Lishui County, stayed here for one night, and continued to rush tomorrow, and they could reach Pudu Temple in half a day.
Pudu Temple, next to Danyang Lake, is the largest temple in Gyeonggi, with many pilgrims, and the presiding abbot is a high-ranking monk. This time I finally came out, and Xiao Rui came with the scenery of Danyang Lake.
Danyang Lake is named because it is full of red poplars and Dan as far as the eye can see.
The scenery of Danyang Lake is beautiful, when the water is in full bloom in summer, the ocean is subtle, the vast Han is boundless, the sail sand gulls are infested in the meantime, the distant mountains are floating, just like a painting of lakes and mountains. In the middle of winter, the water dries up, the lake beach is exposed, and there are plenty of aquatic crops such as reeds and sedges, and the scenery is slightly worse.
I found a good inn in Lishui County, but I didn't expect the inn to be prosperous, and there were only two rooms left.
The three of them stayed, and asked for some wine and food, and asked the innkeeper to learn that there was a grand festival in Pudu Temple these days, so the inn business was full, and if you came one step late, you might not be able to live.
Xiao Rui was happy, he was originally out to play, but he didn't expect there to be a festival, so he should go and see it, he was full of wine and food, so Xiao Rui washed and slept.
Early in the morning, Xiao Rui was suddenly awakened by the prompt sound in his head.
He hurriedly checked, only to see the system prompt: "Mission completed: persuade Jian Jiuxiao to go west to Dazhao, destroy the Cao family gate valve, the advent value is 30, and the current advent value is 60100." ”
Xiao Rui was stunned, Po Yu completed the task like this and persuaded Jian Jiuxiao?
Sure enough, it is not filial piety and has three no queens, and he has talent and emotional intelligence, and he just has an appetite for Jian Jiuxiao, and as long as he has a sweet mouth, there is nothing that cannot be solved!
If there is, then continue to sweeten your mouth!
This is also one of the characteristics of the strongest mouth escape skill!
Although he has a handsome face, his skills in this area are still slightly worse, and he can't reach the realm of invincibility, so he needs to be ashamed and brave.
was awakened, Xiao Rui couldn't sleep, so he simply went out for a walk.
At this time, the sky had not yet dawned, and the hall of the inn downstairs was pitch black, but an oil lamp was lit on a table in a corner, and under the flickering light, a person's figure was reflected.
Looking at the figure and body shape, it seems to be a woman, there are a few small dishes on the table, all of which are already cold, she is drinking with wine.
Is this the realm of morning wine?
Drink until you fall asleep naturally, wake up and continue to drink, and the beautiful wine cannot be disappointed.
"Friends upstairs, it's better to meet by chance, why don't you come down and have a drink?" Suddenly, the woman downstairs spoke.
Xiao Rui was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Okay! ”
Walking down the stairs and coming to the table, Xiao Rui saw the woman's face clearly.
The age should be in her forties, but the maintenance is excellent, like the appearance of the thirties, you can see from the sound and appearance, and she was also a peerless beauty when she was young.
It's a pity that beauties all have a day when they get older.
It's no wonder that men love beauties more than the country, because beauties age faster than the country.
"In Xia Xiao Jiurui, I don't know what to call it?" Xiao Rui asked.
"You can call me Aunt Ying!" The woman laughed.
Xiao Rui gave him a squint and took advantage of me! Finally, seeing how old she was, he gave her a face and shouted: "Aunt Ying, when you meet for the first time, do you want to give some meeting gifts to the juniors?" After all, my aunt was called. ”
Is Xiao Rui a person who will suffer?
The woman smiled and said, "Okay, if you want a greeting gift, I'll give you a greeting gift." ”
After speaking, more than a dozen small paper bags were taken out of the package on the woman's table, which were not big and tightly wrapped.
"These are good things!" The woman laughed.
Xiao Rui wondered, what are these?
