Chapter 100: The Old Things Revisited
Guo Gonggong squeezed my wrist silently, and then my palm seemed to be secretly stuffed with something, I retracted my hand into the cuff and pinched it, as if it was a small paper ball. Fastest update access: щщщ.79XS.сОΜ.
At this time, the eunuchs in the palace immediately came out and urged us to go in quickly, and the queen mother and the emperor were waiting for us.
The light car is familiar with the road into the Puning Palace, which has more than a dozen palace lamps in the palm, and the night pearl inlaid in the four walls 'intersect' to reflect each other, bright as day.
The Queen Mother, the Emperor, Prime Minister Lan, and Liang Ci all sat everywhere, each with their own thoughts, and the air around them was filled with a-for-tat smell of war.
Prime Minister Lan Cheng saw me and my master, and there was a faint hint of surprise in his resentful eyes.
Liang Ci supported his forehead with his hand, frowning slightly, which made me a little worried, lest he was not healed, and if there was any discomfort, I couldn't help but look at it twice.
The Queen Mother coughed coldly, expressing her dissatisfaction with me.
The master and I hurriedly stepped forward, saluted respectfully according to the number of salutes, and then bowed our heads and stood on one side. This time, the Queen Mother actually ordered someone to move a chair over, and I secretly slandered myself that it was stained with the master's light.
We thanked him and sat sideways, and the Queen Mother opened the 'door' and asked: "Xiyue, Su Qingwen, the mourning family announced that you have entered the palace this time, mainly to ask you something, you must answer truthfully, and there must be no half of untruth." ”
I nodded, pretending to be obedient.
The Queen Mother thought for a long time, it seemed that it was difficult to speak, and as if she was considering the wording, and when the words came out, she was a little hesitant.
"Xiyue, the mourning family remembers that you once deliberately entered the palace and told me that there is a 'medicine' in this world that can 'confuse' the mind of illusory people and create a void illusion?"
The master nodded without hesitation and replied, "That's true." This 'medicine' can control people's emotions, and after taking it for a long time, the poison 'sex' penetrates into the bones, and can even affect people's consciousness and turn people into a puppet. ”
"It's ridiculous, it's nonsense!" Prime Minister Lan refuted disdainfully and interrupted the master's words.
The Queen Mother glared at Prime Minister Lan coldly, faintly angry, and left her master to turn her head and ask me: "Su Qingwen, if this 'medicine' is only taken once, can it have other effects?" ”
I groaned for a moment before I replied truthfully: "The first time I take this 'medicine', it can cause people to hallucinate and produce bizarre visions. If it is combined with hypnosis, it can '' people's dreams. ”
The Queen Mother's fingers trembled invisibly.
"If a person is hypnotized, does he have any other reaction besides dreaming?"
"Yes!" I affirmed: "Some people fall into a deep sleep after being hypnotized, lose all defenses, and tell the secrets buried deep in their hearts that they are most unwilling to tell." If someone follows the 'temptation' and asks and answers, it is like a child, and there is absolutely no untruth. ”
"Bang!" The Queen Mother was shocked to 'color' change, and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground and fell apart.
My master and I looked at each other tacitly, then bowed our heads in silence.
"Xiyue, what she said is true, but is there any exaggeration?" The Queen Mother realized that she was out of shape, barely calmed down, and asked unhurriedly, but her voice couldn't help but tremble.
"Queen Mother, it's true."
The Queen Mother suddenly became furious, slapped the case, pointed at the tip of Prime Minister Lan's nose hatefully, gritted her teeth and said, "Lan Xiangzhi!" How daring! ”
Prime Minister Lan stood up in a panic, "plopped", knelt on the ground, and hurriedly defended: "The Queen Mother is clear, the old minister has always been loyal to you, and his loyalty can be seen from the sun and the moon, even if he eats the bear's heart and leopard gall, he will definitely not dare to do such a rebellious thing to your old man!" ”
The Queen Mother's face turned 'pale', her eyebrows were angry, and she snorted coldly: "Don't dare? I think you dare! I'll just say that Lan Ying'er is plain, she has always kept her fingers on the yang 'spring' water, why did she suddenly have filial piety, and she was kind enough to make soup for me to drink? I've had nightmares for three days since! I still remember it vividly. ”
Prime Minister Lan Cheng prostrate on the ground and knocked his head on the ground, obviously sensing the signs of danger from the Queen Mother's fierce words.
"Queen Mother, you even have a nightmare, it is a sign from heaven, warning you that Su Qingwen is a disaster for the country and the people. If you think about it, Emperor Mohan didn't want to provoke the dispute between the two countries because of him, but also lost the hearts of the people and almost became the king of the country; For her, the prince of Qi did not hesitate to turn against you and send troops to Mohan without authorization; The emperor also disobeyed her several times because of her, and had an old quarrel with you. She Su Qingwen is a veritable demon 'girl' of the country, and now she has fulfilled them one by one. Now it is sinister to stir up the relationship between our monarch and minister. The Queen Mother, don't be gullible! ”
The words were so earnest and well-founded that I almost began to examine my crimes.
"It's a good move, four or two thousand catties, is Prime Minister Lan going to cause trouble? What we are discussing now is the great sin of rebellion of your daughter, Lan Ying'er. The emperor gave me a complicated look and reminded lightly.
"The emperor Chrysostom 'jade' said, is this to condemn the 'daughter' of the old minister? Don't say that there is no such poison 'medicine' in the world, even if there is, my family Ying'er has always been a big 'door' and not a second 'door', and abides by the harem training, where will she know these sinister things? will not be bold enough to offend the Queen Mother Fengyi. ”
"Abide by the discipline of the boudoir?" The emperor smiled coldly and sarcastically: "I remember that your family Ying'er is a woman who does not let her eyebrows, and dares to mobilize my army to defend Beijing, and plot rebellion and 'chaos', which really impresses me." ”
Prime Minister Lan didn't expect that the emperor would bring up the old matter again, mentioning Lan Ying'er's theft of the Qilin Order. Immediately choked, and didn't dare to defend, he couldn't admit frankly, this matter was instructed by the Queen Mother, right? Although everyone knows it, if it comes out of their own mouth, it will annoy the Queen Mother, and there is no way back.
The Queen Mother was a little embarrassed, and pretended to be angry: "Don't cry if you don't see the coffin, until now, Prime Minister Lan, you are still quibbling!" ”
Prime Minister Lan Cheng was stunned for a moment, and couldn't hold back his tears: "Queen Mother, the old minister is really wronged, you can't listen to the words of Prince Qi!" I have always had a festival with the prince of Qi because of the little 'girl', and everyone knows about it. Now in order to surrender, he took refuge in Su Qingqing and collided with Miss Eleven, adding revenge to revenge. Qi Wang Ye must regard the old minister as a thorn in the eye, a thorn in the 'meat', and then quickly, 'desire' and the crime are no excuse, the queen mother, you can't believe the words of the Qi prince, regardless of the sincerity of the old minister. ”
"Prime Minister Lan, do you mean that the mourning family is mediocre, and you are wronging you and Lan Ying'er?" The Queen Mother asked with a sneer.
"The old minister never dares, I just hope that the Queen Mother will take pity on the old minister and be brave and loyal, and don't listen to other people's discord."
The Queen Mother raised her hand with the jade 'flower' armor, gently 'rubbed' her eyebrows, and looked helpless: "Your Majesty, this Qi prince and Prime Minister Lan Cheng have their own opinions, one is the 'flesh' and bone of the mourning family, and the other is the pillar of the country, the emperor's humerus minister." Whoever mourns is not partial, and the truth makes the mourning family 'handsome', in a dilemma, and I don't know what to do. How do you think this matter is over? ”
The emperor, who was sitting upright on the upper seat, took a sip of tea slowly, put it on the desk casually, and said casually: "This matter is difficult to say, and it is simple to say." Since the 'medicine' soup has such an effect, directly let Aunt Xiyue prescribe a prescription, 'hand' it over to the next person to fry, and go down in a bowl, won't she confess everything? ”
The Queen Mother covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled: "You have the most ghost ideas, why didn't the mourning family think of it." This doesn't hurt the face, and everyone is in harmony. However, Prime Minister Lan Cheng is old, and he has been following the emperor before and after the saddle, there is no merit and hard work, how can the mourning family bear it? ”
Prime Minister Lan's heart, which had been tense, finally relaxed at this time, and nodded busily: "Thank you Queen Mother for your kindness." ”
Who expected the Queen Mother to change her words: "Come on, Xuanlan Guifei will see you." ”
Prime Minister Lan Cheng, who was kneeling on the ground, was obviously stiff, suddenly raised his head, crawled two steps forward, and begged in a mournful voice: "Queen Mother, Ying'er, she grew up with your old man, and you know best what kind of 'sex' you have, and you will definitely not do such a ridiculous thing." I beg your old men to be merciful. ”
The Queen Mother frowned slightly: "It's just a bowl of soup 'medicine', and it's not that there is no way to solve it, isn't my old bone safe and sound now?" Is Prime Minister Lan a little too 'excited'? But what are you worried about? ”
Prime Minister Lan was immediately speechless, unable to refute it, only kowtowed like pounding garlic: "There is only this one 'girl' under the knees of the old minister, love is like a treasure, what punishment is there, the old minister is willing to accept it." ”
The Queen Mother only closed her eyes and didn't speak, ignoring it, and we couldn't figure out her thoughts.
The master's prescription had a little eunuch rushing down to fry the 'medicine', Lan Cheng closed his mouth in recognition, and the cold words were still silent, and the palace was silent for a while. I held my breath, I didn't dare to speak, I didn't dare to look around, my eyes looked at my nose, my nose looked at my heart, and I had my own thoughts.
After a while, Lan Ying'er was taken to the Queen Mother by the palace people, and after a salute, the Queen Mother took the 'medicine' soup that had just been prepared on the side of the table, and handed it to Lan Ying'er with a pleasant face: "Ying'er, the mourning family will reward you with a bowl of secret nourishing soup, you can drink it while it's hot." ”
Lan Ying'er took the soup bowl in her hand suspiciously, naturally a little suspicious, and didn't understand what the Queen Mother meant. But he didn't dare to disobey, he hesitated to pick up the soup bowl, and as soon as he put it to his mouth, he couldn't help but lose his 'color', and glanced at Prime Minister Lan on the side, and instantly turned pale.
"What's the matter, isn't this soup delicious?" The Queen Mother stared at Lan Ying'er closely, the corners of her lips curled slightly, and asked lazily.
Lan Ying'er was holding the soup bowl, neither putting it nor drinking, a little frightened, her hands trembled, and a little soup was spilled outside.
Her actions have clearly explained all the problems, and no matter how much Prime Minister Lan tries to justify it, it will be useless. Lan Ying'er clearly knows this kind of soup 'medicine'!
"Come on, Lan Guifei doesn't seem to have a good hand, you go up and help carry the bowl of soup, carefully feed Lan Guifei to drink, don't have a drop left." The Queen Mother leaned lazily on the back of her chair and said.
"No, Queen Mother, don't." Lan Ying'er knelt on the ground with a "poof" and shook her head in a panic: "Ying'er is not feeling well today, she can't drink such a soup, let me slow down." ”
