Chapter 72 (1st Update)
Yun Chi really had a complete fever in the second half of the night.
Tian Bu changed a prescription for Yun Chi again, and instructed Mama Fang to decoction medicine for him, he was old, and after tossing for so long, he couldn't stand it, and after telling him how to take care of Yun Chi, he went back to the courtyard where he was placed and fell asleep with the medicine box.
Mama Fang still used the method of jacquard to make Yun Chi drink the medicine in the second half of the night.
An Shuli and Mei Shuyu sat in the outer painting hall and waited for Yun Chi to wake up, and this was the night.
Yun Chi didn't wake up in the middle of the night, and only woke up at dawn the next day and opened his eyes.
When Xiao Zhongzi saw Yun Chi wake up, he was immediately overjoyed, and his eyes were red and he said, "Your Highness, you have finally woken up and scared the slave to death." When the words fell, he changed his words again, "No, not only did you scare the minions to death, you almost scared a bunch of people to death." ”
Yun Chi faintly knew that he had a high fever, and in a daze, he heard the voices and movements of people walking back and forth in the courtyard, he moved his body, and found that he had no strength and was very weak, and said in a dumb voice, "Help me up." ”
Xiao Zhongzi hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Yun Chi get up, and said in his mouth, "Yesterday, after you returned to the house, you locked yourself in the room, you didn't see anyone, and you were not allowed to be disturbed, but you didn't think about it, you had a high fever, this hot poison is menacing, scary, it is not a dose of fierce medicine can not be saved, the divine doctor gave you a dose of fierce medicine, but this fierce medicine also has consequences, the divine doctor said, that is, you will wake up with no strength, you need to lie down for a few days." ”
Yun Chi let out an "um".
Xiao Zhongzi peeked at Yun Chi, and saw that he was sweating profusely, his face was pale, and he couldn't see any emotion on his face, he said with red eyes, "Your Highness, you can't be so scary in the future, if it weren't for the fact that the second son of Yu had to make trouble to see you yesterday and broke in, I haven't found out that you have a high fever." Mama Fang blamed herself, if she didn't take care of you, the slave was afraid that she would hang herself with a white silk. The minions also blamed themselves very much, and the second son of Yu was angry, saying that the people in the East Palace were lazy and did not wait well, and almost slashed the minions with a sword. ”
Yun Chi said "um" again, his tone was flat, and he didn't seem to care very much about his danger yesterday.
Xiao Zhongzi sniffed and chattered again, "Shuli Gongzi and Yu Er Gongzi are painting in the outer hall, and they have been guarding you all night." Are you seeing them now? Or did the minions order someone to bring hot water for bathing, and you cleaned it up and saw them again? You haven't eaten since you came back, and Shuli Gongzi and Yu Er Gongzi didn't eat much for dinner yesterday. ”
Yun Chi didn't answer and asked, "What happened to Jingzhong?" ”
Xiao Zhongzi immediately said, "There was a big incident, Zhao Jaefu died last night." ”
Yun Chi looked stunned, and turned his head to stare at Xiao Zhongzi, "Zhao Zaifu? How did he die? ”
Xiao Zhongzi said, "Yesterday, the Zhao Mansion sent someone to invite you over, but you had a high fever and fell unconscious. came back and said that the cause of Zhao Jaefu's death was the same as the death of the queen mother and Mrs. Wu Weihou. The divine doctor said that in the whole world, there is no way to find out the cause of death, nine times out of ten, it is to die of death Gu. ”
Yun Chi's face sank, "Now invite them in." ”
Xiao Zhongzi answered yes and immediately went to ask An Shuli and Mei Shuyu.
An Shuli and Mei Shuyu stayed all night, resting on the chair for a while, they were a little tired, and when they heard that Yun Chi woke up to see them, they immediately entered the house.
Yun Chi saw that the two of them were tired, waved his hand, asked the two to sit down, and asked, "What's the matter with Zhao Zaifu?" ”
An Shuli sighed, "His Royal Highness left Beijing for the past two days, Beijing was peaceful, His Royal Highness came back yesterday, had a high fever, and in the evening, someone from Zhao Mansion came to invite His Highness, saying that Zhao Zaifu was going to rest, but suddenly he was out of breath, His Royal Highness couldn't go, so I took Tian Bu to Zhao Mansion instead of His Highness, Zhao Zaifu did die, and the divine doctor said that he died of death Gu." I asked Miss Zhao Mansion to guard Zhao Mansion for the time being, and wait for His Highness to wake up and make a thorough decision. ”
Yun Chi pursed his lips, "What do you think?" The cause of death was Phoenix Wood? ”
"It's hard to say." An Shuli shook his head, "When His Royal Highness learned that the phoenix wood was fed by the Death Gu two months ago, he had already made people take care of the phoenix wood, if Zhao Zaifu was because of the phoenix wood, it would only be seven hundred and forty-nine days now, less than two months." First, unless there is a traitor in the East Palace, and second, there may be another flower and tree. ”
Yun Chi listened quietly, and after An Shuli paused, he said, "And third, if you prepare the branches of the phoenix wood early in the morning and scratch people with the branches, what will happen?" Will they die as scheduled? ”
An Shuli was stunned for a moment, "This is going to ask the divine doctor." ”
Yun Chi instructed Xiao Zhongzi, "Go and invite the heavens to come." ”
Xiao Zhongzi answered and went immediately.
The day will not come in a short time, and when he heard Yun Chi's words, he thought, "What His Highness said, the old man has never thought about it, but it is not impossible." The words fell, and he said, "Dead Gu feeding flowers and trees is actually an extremely difficult thing, in this world, in addition to the phoenix tree in the East Palace, where else can I hear that flowers and trees bloom all year round?" ”
Yun Chi twisted his eyebrows, "Lin'an? ”
"Yes, there are many flowers and trees in Lin'an, which bloom all year round, but Lin'an is warm and pleasant, and the climate is good, which has a lot to do with it." In addition, most of the flowers and trees in the Hua family are raised by my precious apprentice with medicine, and I have to let Hua Zhuo investigate this matter later. ”
Yun Chi looked at An Shuli, "Is there nothing else in the capital except for the phoenix tree in the East Palace, which blooms all year round?" ”
An Shuli thought for a while, "It doesn't seem to be." ”
Yun Chi rubbed his eyebrows, "After eating, this palace will go to Zhao's mansion." ”
An Shuli nodded.
Mei Shuyu looked at Yun Chi, he wanted to ask Hua Yan, but seeing Yun Chi's expression, he pressed it down again and walked out of the inner room with An Shuli.
Xiao Zhongzi ordered someone to bring water, and after Yun Chi bathed and changed clothes, he came to the outer painting hall.
A high fever came too fiercely, it seemed to drain all Yun Chi's strength, he walked softly, but he didn't let Xiao Zhongzi help him, but from the inner room to the painting hall, there was a thin sweat.
After eating, Mei Shuyu finally couldn't help it and asked Yun Chi, "Cousin Prince, are you really looking for your cousin?" ”
Yun Chi shook his head.
Mei Shuyu still wanted to ask what to do if she didn't look for it, Yun Chi stood up, "Shuli, you stay in the East Palace, and help the palace thoroughly investigate the East Palace." After the words fell, he said to Mei Shuyu, "You go to the Zhao Mansion with the palace and investigate the Zhao Mansion thoroughly." ”
An Shuli nodded, and Mei Shuyu spit out the words she still had to ask, and nodded as well.
Xiao Zhongzi brought a thick cloak and put it on Yun Chi, and ordered someone to bring a soft sedan chair, Yun Chi got on the sedan chair when he went out, and was carried out of the East Palace.
Mei Shuyu followed on horseback and went to Zhao's mansion.
Zhao Mansion had already built a mourning hall, Zhao Qingxi ordered someone to carry Zhao Zaifu into the coffin, and Mrs. Zhao who woke up cried and refused to let him live, she didn't believe that Zhao Zaifu died suddenly, she only felt that he was asleep.
Therefore, although the mourning hall was built and the coffin was placed in the mourning hall, Zhao Zaifu's body was still placed in the main courtyard.
Yun Chi's sedan chair came, and many carriages had stopped at the gate of Zhao's mansion.
Hearing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had come down, the housekeeper of the Zhao Mansion accompanied Zhao Qingxi to greet him.
Yun Chi rarely sits in a sedan chair, when Zhao Qingxi saw the sedan chair in the East Palace, he remembered An Shuli's words yesterday, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was infected with a cold and had a high fever yesterday and couldn't come, she bowed her knees, "His Royal Highness the Prince." ", and gave Mei Shuyu, who dismounted, a salute, "Second son Yu." ”
Yun Chi opened the sedan curtain, glanced at Zhao Qingxi, and said, "This palace came to see Zhao Zaifu." ”
Zhao Qingxi looked at Yun Chi's pale face and nodded, "Your Highness, please." ”
Yun Chi fell the sedan curtain.
Zhao Qingxi took a step behind Yun Chi's sedan chair and walked inside.
Mei Shuyu saw Zhao Qingxi's good daughter's house, after this change, like fallen leaves floating in the wind, people looked so worried, but although she was haggard, her eyebrows and eyes were strong, thinking that there was no male in Zhao Mansion, Mrs. Zhao was afraid that she would no longer be able to support the huge Zhao Mansion for her daughter's family. He said softly, "Miss Zhao mourns. ”
Zhao Qingxi glanced at Mei Shuyu and nodded silently.
Even if Mei Shuyu wanted to comfort her again, she couldn't say anything superfluous, so she gave up.
Yun Chi's sedan chair came to the front yard, and Zhao Qingxi spoke, "Your Highness, my mother doesn't believe that my father is dead, and I can't say anything about the coffin, and now my father is still in the main courtyard, not in the mourning hall." ”
Yun Chi said "um", "Then let's go to the main courtyard." ”
Zhao Qingxi led Yun Chi towards the main courtyard.
Most of the ministers of the court, such as Jingguo Gong, King Anyang, and other ministers came early this morning, all gathered in front of the mourning hall, and did not see the dead Zhao Zaifu, and when they heard that Yun was late, they all turned around and saw a sedan chair led by Zhao Qingxi to the main courtyard.
Everyone thought that since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was here, they would have to wait! Mrs. Zhao can't always guard Zhao Zaifu's body and keep it in a coffin.
Thinking about Cho Jae-fu, who died for no reason, is really terrifying.
The courtiers of the older generation have experienced the death of the queen mother and Mrs. Wu Weihou back then, and now Zhao Zaifu also does not know the cause of death, so that everyone can't help but recall the queen mother fifteen years ago and Mrs. Wu Weihou five years ago.
By the way, Wu Weihou is still a guest in the East Palace, and he has not come out since he was invited in by His Royal Highness the Prince.
