Chapter 213: Secret Aid (3)
He Xi snuggled into Tuoba Chen's arms and asked, "Has Your Majesty always been discerning?" β
Tuoba Chen's fingers wrapped around He Xi's green silk and said, "I only punish those who deserve to be punished, but sometimes, things need to be weighed, but I promise you that there will never be more such things in the future." β
He Xi closed her eyes, a line of crystal tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, and in her ears was the steady and powerful heartbeat of Tuoba Chen, He Xi wanted to use a sharp dagger to cut his heart and take a good look, how could a person like Tuoba Chen, a person like him, have a heart? He didn't deserve a heart at all.
He Xi withdrew from his arms, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said, "In this case, the concubine will go and bring Lin'er back tomorrow." Tuoba Chen nodded and said, "It's okay, pick it up early, and the concubine can have a good rest." β
He Xi nodded obediently, and suddenly said, "Your Majesty, tomorrow, how about the concubine want to invite you to Lingxiu Palace to accompany Lin'er for dinner?" β
Tuoba Chen said happily: "Okay, even if this is a reunion of our family of three, I will definitely come back, and today we are still-"
As soon as the words fell, I saw Fuqing come in with a anxious face, standing by the door, He Xi straightened up, Tuoba Chen was disturbed, and said unhappily: "What happened?" β
Fuqing hung his head, first glanced at He Xi, and said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, Fulu from Yiyue Palace just came, saying that something happened to Mrs. Miao." Tuoba Chen was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" β
Xu is aware that his tone was too eager, and coughed curtly, Fuqing said: "Fulu said, it seems that he used something bad, and his abdominal pain does not stop." β
Tuoba Chen asked, "But did you invite a doctor?" β
Fuqing was busy: "I have already been invited, but Mrs. Miao has been talking about Your Majesty, and Fu Lu and the palace people have no choice, so they have the courage to come to Lingxiu Palace to spread the word." β
He Xi kept his face hanging slightly, Tuoba Chen seemed to be a little hesitant, and before Tuoba Chen could speak, He Xi said: "Your Majesty, Mrs. Miao entered the palace on the first day today, and she encountered such a thing, she must have been flustered, Your Majesty should go and have a look, you can rest assured." β
Tuoba Chen unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's okay, I promised you, come over tomorrow, tonight, you can rest first, Lin'er will come back tomorrow, and you will be busy." β
He Xi nodded infinitely gently, got up and sent Tuoba Chen out of the palace gate.
Looking at Tuoba Chen's back in a hurry, Ruyi was a little surprised: "Little master, how do you know that Your Majesty will not stay in Lingxiu Palace today?" β
He Xi poured all the tea that Tuoba Chen had drunk into the pot of kumquat trees on the side, and said, "What do you think of Mrs. Miao?" β
Ruyi thought about it carefully and said: "She is a beautiful and gentle person, and her dancing posture is also wonderful, but she is a lowly dancing girl after all." I can't see it for a while, but I don't think I'm a peacemaker. β
He Xi sighed softly and said, "Although Lan Xin is stupid, and the Zheng family is not smart, but since they are the candidates they chose to bring down the queen, they naturally will not keep to themselves." β
Ruyi looked shocked and asked, "You mean, this wonderful lady-"
He Xi smiled: "It's not just me, it's Lan Ruo, and I understand it in my heart, so why did Lan Ruo personally go to the Heart Cultivation Hall that night to ask for guilt and force Fuqing to come to my palace with Shumiao?" β
Ruyi listened to He Xi's words, and asked as if puzzled: "But the little master, if Mrs. Miao is Concubine Hui's person, she should go to Concubine Hui's palace yesterday, how can the little master be here." β
He Xi said mockingly: "Before she can prove her worth, do you really think Lan Xin will take care of her?" This person is not simple, just yesterday in front of me, without the slightest hesitation, he is not a simple dancing girl. β
Ruyi said with some enlightenment: "Then today's events, could it be that Concubine Hui instructed them?" β
He Xi covered the corners of his lips a little sleepily and said: "No matter who it is, it's not a bad thing for me, want to kill two birds with one stone?" Lan Xin inevitably has too much appetite. By the way, Uncle Liang has news coming? β
Ruyi nodded, although there was no one in the hall, she still carefully put it in He Xi's ear and said: "Uncle Liang has already arrived at the barbarian border, just waiting for the next order of the little master." β
He Xi nodded and said, "Presumably the results will come out tomorrow, okay, I'm tired, let's rest today." Tomorrow I found the right person to come over. β
Ruyi nodded, served He Xi to change his clothes, and blew out the lights.
The entire Lingxiu Palace fell into a state of tranquility.
However, Yiyue Palace, but the lights were bright, Tuoba Chen got off the sedan chair, and walked quickly towards the palace, the palace maids and eunuchs along the road all knelt on the ground, several imperial doctors were waiting anxiously outside the hall, saw Tuoba Chen, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "See Your Majesty." β
Tuoba Chen looked inside, only to see a faint figure inside, and he said, "How is Mrs. Miao's health?" The imperial doctor seemed to be a little embarrassed, and looked at each other and said, "Your Majesty, this-"
When Tuoba Chen saw that they were talking hesitantly, he said with some dissatisfaction: "What is this? Can't you speak? β
was reprimanded by Tuoba Chen like this, the imperial doctors became more and more panicked, and they hurriedly kowtowed and asked for guilt, and in the end, it was a seemingly high-status imperial doctor who said stubbornly: "If you return to Your Majesty, it is not that Mrs. Miao is in poor health, but that the old ministers have not had a chance to diagnose Mrs. Miao." β
Tuoba Chen was stunned, as if he didn't know why this situation occurred, at this time, there was a faint cry inside, such as sadness, pitiful, Tuoba Chen opened the curtain and went in, just when he saw Chun Tao was painstakingly persuasive: "Little master, you still let the imperial doctor take a look, maybe it's okay and don't necessarily say, you are like this, if Your Majesty sees it, I'm afraid you will be distressedββ"
Shu Miao kept sobbing, and said in a trembling voice: "Chun Tao, I am like this now, even if His Majesty sees it, I am afraid that I will be disgusted, what is the meaning of my life-"
Before the words fell, she sobbed again, Chun Tao was a little anxious, turned her head, and saw Tuoba Chen walking in the direction of the bed, all blamed her for persuading Shu Miao, and did not notice Tuoba Chen's arrival, she wanted to bow down, she saw Tuoba Chen waved her hand, she retreated to the side with a very good look, Shu Miao was still immersed in grief, Tuoba Chen stepped forward and said softly: "What's wrong?" Since you're sick, why don't you take a look at the doctor? β
As soon as Shu Miao heard Tuoba Chen's voice, her first reaction was to turn her back, and she said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the concubine's face is damaged, and she can't face the saint, so I can only ask Your Majesty for forgiveness." β
Tuoba Chen looked at Chun Tao suspiciously: "What's the matter?" Fu Lu told me that it was abdominal pain, how did he lose his face again? β
Chun Tao hurriedly knelt down and said: "Back to Your Majesty's words, it was indeed abdominal cramps at first, but it was only half a cup of tea, and the little master was no longer in pain, and instead, it was-yes-"
"What is it?" Tuoba Chen said angrily.
Chun Tao knelt on the ground in fright and trembled, Rao was like this, and he didn't say what happened, Shu Miao seemed to be a little unbearable, sobbed and turned around and said, "Your Majesty, don't be embarrassed for Chun Tao." β
At this time, Tuoba Chen saw that Shu Miao's original delicate skin had fine blisters, even with the corners of his lips, some of which had been peeped through, leaving yellow liquid outside, Tuoba Chen turned his face, as if he couldn't bear to look at it anymore, Shu Miao saw Tuoba Chen's reaction, his eyes dimmed, and he hurriedly put the veil on his face, Rao was so, and he couldn't stop the blisters exposed to the outside.
She touched the tears in the corners of her eyes and said, "The concubine has defiled her holy face, and the concubine deserves to die." β
Tuoba Chen said: "Why is it so serious, Chun Tao, call the imperial doctor in." β
Chun Tao answered, and got up from the ground, Shu Miao at this time, but did not stop it, hung his head, only cried, outside the hall remembered the sound of mixed footsteps, it was Chun Tao who invited the Tai Doctor in, Tuoba Chen got up, let the Tai Doctor carefully diagnose the pulse, and then looked at the injury on Shu Miao's face, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Mrs. Miao is poisoned." β
Shu Miao's breath stagnated, and he hurriedly looked at Tuoba Chen, and called out more and more aggrievedly: "Your Majesty-"
Tuoba Chen frowned and said, "Poisoning? What kind of poison did you get into? β
The imperial doctor knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "The little lord has blisters on his face, and there are signs of rupture, but the pulse is calm and powerful, but the body temperature is too high, it should be the toxicity of a herb called poisonous fish vine, if the minister is not wrong, the little lord should have had abdominal pain before, and then this blister and rash appeared." β
Chun Tao stood aside and nodded repeatedly, this symptom was the same as what she said before, Tuoba Chen said: "Poisonous fish vine? How do you sound so familiar? β
Fuqing hurriedly stepped forward and said: Your Majesty, this poisonous fish vine has an insecticidal effect, and every summer, the Internal Affairs Office will distribute it to various palaces to repel mosquitoes. β
Tuoba Chen nodded clearly, and the imperial doctor also said: "But it has this effect, and this poisonous fish vine can also treat inflammation and redness, but it must not be taken, the current situation of the little master should be that he has taken the poisonous fish vine by mistake." β
Tuoba Chen asked, "Is there a way to treat it?" β
The imperial doctor nodded and said: "This is simple, to treat this, you only need to fight poison with poison, grind the leaves of the poisonous fish vine and boil it, and use this water to clean the affected area every day." β
Hearing that it was not complicated, several people breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Shumiao, "How many days are you?" β
The imperial physician replied respectfully: "The little master needs to eat lightly, pay attention to rest, within three days, the toxicity will be resolved, remember, do not scratch the wound on the face, to prevent scarring." β
As soon as I heard the word scar, I panicked.
Tuoba Chen said: "There is Imperial Doctor Lao-" Saying that, Chun Tao followed the Imperial Doctor to the Imperial Hospital to get the poisonous fish vine, and when the people in the hall were dispersed, Tuoba Chen's face sank.
