"Lord Chen?!"

Jing Yuan was overjoyed, and subconsciously stood up and looked at Chu Lingyu: "Didn't the imperial brother say that Chen Pingzhi was sent to disaster relief?" Why did you come back at this time? ”

Chu Lingyu was naturally confused, but Chen Pingzhi's return to the dynasty always gave Chu Lingyu some hope, and he didn't have time to explain more to Jing Yuan at the moment, so he was busy saying to the little eunuch: "Hurry up, please!" ”

The little eunuch hurriedly retreated, taking advantage of this opportunity, Chu Lingyu said in a low voice: "I don't know what's going on, I still see Chen Pingzhi for a while, let's ask!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Chen Pingzhi appeared in the hall in civilian clothes, but his clothes were dirty, and his hair was a little messy, looking like he had come out of a refugee camp.

"Chen Aiqing, you are ......"

Seeing this scene, Chu Lingyu was also stunned for a moment.

"Weichen Chen Pingzhi, knock on the emperor, long live long live!"

"No need to be polite, hurry up!"

After some greetings, Chen Pingzhi also greeted Jing Yuan briefly, but his face could not hide the tiredness.

"When Wechen heard that there was an epidemic of smallpox in the capital, he hurried back - but please rest assured that the matter in this disaster area has been dealt with almost completely, and Wechen has also left his deputy, I believe there will be no more chaos!"

first reassured Chu Lingyu and Jing Yuan, and then hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "When Fang just entered the palace, Wei Chen heard that the original eldest prince was also unfortunately hit by the trick and was also infected with smallpox...... It's just that this one-year-old child is really a bit dangerous! ”

"Chen Pingzhi, do you have a way to save Cheng'er?"

originally thought that he was mentally prepared, but when he heard Chen Pingzhi say this, Jing Yuan still seemed to be unable to control his emotions, and tears flowed down as soon as he "brushed".

"This ......"

Chen Pingzhi pondered for a moment, as if he hadn't figured out what to say, but Chu Lingyu on the side couldn't sit still: "That's it, Chen Aiqing, if you have a way to cure smallpox, then, it is a great matter of immeasurable merit!" As long as the eldest prince can survive this catastrophe smoothly, I will definitely be rewarded! ”

"It's what a minister should do to share the emperor's worries, and he doesn't dare to ask for the emperor's reward!"

Chen Pingzhi said with trepidation: "The minister didn't deliberately take on his identity and didn't speak, but he ...... Hey, let's put it this way, if this matter doesn't involve the eldest prince, then the minister is naturally willing to contribute this recipe to give it a try......"

Speaking of this, Chen Pingzhi saw that Jing Yuan opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, Chen Pingzhi smiled bitterly in his heart, and hurriedly hurried before Jing Yuan could speak, and continued: "The reason why the minister said that if he does not involve the eldest prince, it is because this method is not guaranteed to be foolproof, and even if the minister does it himself, he is not completely sure how many people can be saved, or even whether it is useful...... That's why Fang Caichen hesitated in his heart, and hoped that the emperor and the eldest princess would forgive him. ”

"Whether this method works or not, you have to try it first."

Originally, Jing Yuan was still in a hurry, but listening to Chen Pingzhi's explanation made his heart settle down.

Chen Pingzhi's friendship with himself will naturally not harm him, if there is a way to save Cheng'er, Chen Pingzhi will definitely not hide it.

"Tell me about your method first...... Ah no, you wait first, after I announce all the Imperial Physicians Liu, you can talk about this method, with the opinions of the Imperial Physicians, maybe you can discuss a foolproof strategy with Chen Aiqing! ”

A glimmer of hope flashed in Chu Lingyu's eyes, and after getting Chen Pingzhi's approval, he asked people to go to Xuan Chen and the others to see him.

However, he said that after Xiao Ningzi received the order, he hurriedly asked the eunuch in charge to get the waist card, and he wanted to go out of the palace to find Imperial Doctor Liu.

"You kid, it's really getting less and less concerned about being a car now!"

Guan is eunuch glanced at Xiao Ningzi carelessly, and shouted with a displeased face: "Since it is an imperial errand, and the emperor personally explained it, how can you be so careless?" is still out of the palace, don't you know that because tonight is very important, Imperial Doctor Liu has been transferred to Fengyi Palace to guard? This time, you want to find Imperial Doctor Liu, if you don't go to Fengyi Palace, what do you want to do outside the palace?! ”

"Huh? Imperial Physician Liu is in the palace at the moment? ”

Xiao Ningzi was really stunned for a moment, and then looked surprised: "It's a small errand that doesn't even inquire about such a thing, thank you father-in-law for your advice...... If not, if the emperor's major event is delayed, the small one really can't afford to lose ten heads! ”

Seeing Xiao Ningzi's respectful appearance, the eunuch in charge nodded proudly, but he quickly straightened his face again, and said to Xiao Ningzi in a tone of lesson: "Use more snacks when doing errands, especially those of us who are on errands in front of the emperor, others look at the infinite scenery, but who of them knows, if there is a slight mistake, we will not even have a small life, hey, this is not stable......

"Like my father-in-law, he is naturally stable, and even in front of the emperor, he has a lot of face......"

Xiao Ningzi was anxious, but he also complimented him, and then hurriedly said: "It's just that the little one still has errands on his body now, so he can't chat with his father-in-law here, and when the little one finishes his errand, he will listen to his father-in-law's teachings......"

"Go, go, don't bother me tonight, I'm an old man, it's rare to get a good night's sleep, don't bother me!"

The steward and eunuch yawned, and sure enough, as he got older, his energy was a little lacking.

"The little one retires, and the father-in-law rests early!"

Xiao Ningzi retreated with a flattering face, took the gate with him, spread his feet, and ran desperately towards Fengyi Palace.

At this moment, the vermilion gate of Fengyi Palace was closed, and it sounded very quiet inside, it seemed that the situation of the eldest prince was at least quite stable, and Xiao Ningzi breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.

As soon as I wanted to go up and knock on the door, I thought that it might all be smallpox, and suddenly a stir in my heart made the knocking hand hesitate for a moment.

But it was only a moment's effort, Xiao Ningzi pulled his sleeve down, covered it on the palm of his hand, and then slapped the palace door loudly: "Open the door, open the door quickly!" ”

It didn't take long for Xiao Ningzi to withdraw his slap, and the vermilion door was opened with a "squeak", and a head poked out, and he shouted impatiently: "Who, who, this big night, still let people sleep?" ”

"The emperor has decreed, Xuan Liu Imperial Doctor will go to the imperial study immediately to see the driver!"

Xiao Ningzi looked at this person's sleepy-eyed appearance, and felt very angry in his heart, so he simply straightened his face and looked like he was doing business.

As soon as he heard "the emperor's decree", the little eunuch in the door "chuckled" in his heart, rubbed his eyes, and saw that the person in front of him seemed to be a little familiar, it might be someone from the emperor's side, and hurriedly squeezed out a smile from his face: "It turned out to be the father-in-law next to the emperor......"

"Hmph."

Seeing that he was recognized, Xiao Ningzi snorted a little arrogantly and raised his head, as if venting all the contempt he received from the eunuch in charge.

"Then don't delay here, hurry up and call Imperial Doctor Liu out, right?"

Xiao Ningzi put on the posture of a great eunuch, clasped his hands in front of him, if there was another dust, I am afraid that at this moment, he would be as powerful as the great eunuch standing on the Jinluan Palace.

"This ...... Back to his father-in-law, Imperial Doctor Liu is not in Fengyi Palace now! ”

The little eunuch shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "It's not that the little one doesn't pass it on, it's just that it's ......."

"What?!"

Without waiting for the little eunuch to finish speaking, Xiao Ningzi's eyes widened suddenly: "Doctor Liu is not here?" How is this possible? Didn't you say that Imperial Physician Liu had already changed shifts and would be in Fengyi Palace tonight?! ”

"Originally," the little eunuch said respectfully, "It's just that just before half a cup of tea, Imperial Physician Liu suddenly received news from home, saying that Imperial Physician Liu's eldest son's wife gave birth tonight, as if it was difficult to give birth or something, and the Liu family was afraid, so they hurriedly sent someone to deliver a message to Imperial Physician Liu......"

"Then this Imperial Doctor Liu just left the eldest prince alone and went home?"

Xiao Ningzi still didn't believe it at the moment - how could things in this world be so coincidental? But tonight, I was on an errand and took an errand to find the doctor, and the doctor was there for a while, and he just missed it perfectly?

"Isn't it that Rhubarb's condition has been stabilized!"

The little eunuch looked around, and then glanced behind him, and found that there was no one, so he lowered his voice and said to Xiao Ningzi mysteriously: "Actually, the little one has also heard that at the beginning of this smallpox, in addition to being a little unbearable, there will be no worries about his life...... In addition, Imperial Physician Liu had already prescribed medicine to the eldest prince, and the eldest prince was sleeping peacefully at the moment, so Imperial Physician Liu reported to the queen, and the queen also allowed him to go to his house......"

"Why didn't you say it earlier!"

Xiao Ningzi jumped to his feet in a hurry, but at this moment, he didn't care about holding the little eunuch responsible, and ran to the palace gate as soon as he slipped away.

The little eunuch just said that Imperial Physician Liu had only walked for half a cup of tea, he was old, and his legs and feet were a little unstable, so he would chase after him quickly, maybe he could catch up......

After making up his mind, Xiao Ningzi ran after Imperial Doctor Liu.

The palace is huge, Xiao Ningzi feels that he has never run so fast in his life, and finally when he came to the gate of the inner city, he saw the back of Imperial Physician Liu - at this moment, Imperial Physician Liu had passed the examination and was about to go to the outer city gate.

"Doctor Liu, please stay!"

Seeing this, Xiao Ningzi hurriedly shouted loudly, but I don't know if Imperial Doctor Liu was a little insensitive, because of his age, his ears were a little insensitive, so he didn't hear it, and still strode out.

"Imperial Physician Liu, the emperor has decreed that you will go to the imperial study immediately to meet you!"

Xiao Ningzi felt that his throat was on fire, although he felt that he had used all his strength, but what was the matter with Imperial Doctor Liu never looking back?
