Chapter 403
And Xu Chu, who was in a hurry, didn't have time to care about the eyes and surprise of others. She almost trotted up all the way, but after seeing the four big words "Jing'an Palace", her heart settled down a little.
She took a deep breath and stepped forward to find the guard in front of the door to report, but as soon as the guard saw her appearance, he did not delay for a moment and directly looked for someone to bring her into the palace.
When she first entered the capital, it coincided with the murder of the envoys, so for expediency, she naturally lived in the palace temporarily. At that time, Xiao Qinglang treated her with a courteous attitude and did not hide his concern and love for her.
At that time, the palace and all the guards on duty were instructed, but whenever Lord Xu came, he must lead people to the prince as soon as possible. If the prince is not in the palace, he will lead Lord Xu to the Shaohua Courtyard, and no one in the palace will prevent Lord Xu from going anywhere, including the study
Later, there was a holy decree to give marriage, and Lord Xu, who was already valued by the prince, became a quasi-princess. As long as the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty does not collapse, this princess will not be replaced.
In addition, although they did not travel with the prince, they also heard a lot about Lord Xu's deeds from Wei Guang and others. Not to mention the process of fighting wits and courage with those murderers for the time being, just talking about dissecting a corpse with a rotting and foul smell, carefully examining the internal organs, as long as they think about those scenes, they can't help but feel numb in their scalps, and naturally they can't help but be in awe of Xu Chu.
Sure enough, she is the woman that the prince loves, and she is different
Therefore, when the guard saw Xu Chu coming, where did he dare to have the slightest slackness, he longed for a flower to grow on his face.
In the Shaohua Courtyard, the lights were bright at this time, and Wei Guang and others were already waiting in front of the door.
It's just that Xiao Qinglang is still alone in the room. He looked at the dirty pants on his hand with a red face, gritted his teeth and showed a depressed expression, and then his face was red and his ears showed a shy but happy expression, and his expression was really complicated.
So much so, he used to get up early, and when he was over, he was still full of entanglements about how he dreamed of Xiao Chu who looked like a goblin again.
He grew so big, and the only two times he did it were in a dream. This kind of experience, it is
Just when he recalled the scene in his dream, he suddenly heard a knock on the door, and then he heard Wei Guangyu report "Lord Wang, Lord Xu is here"
Lord Xu, here it is
Here it comes
Xiao Qinglang's hand shook, and the charming scene in his mind instantly dissipated, but his mouth became more and more dry. When he came back to his senses and saw the dirty pants in his hand, his heart was even more awkward, so he simply closed his eyes and gritted his teeth and threw the dirty pants into the bath in the bathroom.
When he hurriedly put on his court clothes and took a deep breath to open the door, he found that his lips were dry and a little painful. So, he turned around and poured two sips of cold tea overnight to suppress the fiery breath in his heart.
The jade crown is tied with hair, the court clothes are neat, the soap boots embroidered with dark lines faintly shining under the light, and the jade pendant that hangs on the belt is very similar to the one given to Xu Chu.
Xiao Qinglang finally glanced at himself in the bronze mirror, and after making sure that there was no flaw, and he couldn't see the extremely appearance of Meng Lang in that dream, he opened the door calmly.
"Lord Wang, I have something to say to you." Xu Chu saw Xiao Qinglang going out, didn't care about his outfit, and directly stepped forward and whispered.
Xu is movements were a little hurried, so that she brought a slight wind to Xiao Qinglang with her body.
The elegant bamboo township, like a second him, struck like a second him, with a girl's unique fragrance and an indescribable meaning. Although it didn't make Xiao Qinglang's heart ape, it also made his eyes darken.
It's just that he is as self-controlled, although his eyes are a lot deeper, but his face is still calm and calm.
"As it happens, I have something to say to you."
As they spoke, they went out of the palace.
"Listen to me first, I suspected that the true intention of our investigation was related to the tantric incident that led to Jinlingwei's rebellion. So, I think the suspicion is certain. After saying this, she concisely recounted the conversation with Aunt Chu last night, as well as Ah Qiu's life experience and Xiao Qinglang.
Talking about the case, the little charm in Xiao Qinglang's heart was also suppressed, and he bowed his head and said, "It just so happens that I also have this affirmation." Last night, Tang Qiao was coming to the palace and said that the gatekeeper of the Danding faction had confessed."
Xu Chu listened to Xiao Qinglang recount the confession, and couldn't help but show a stunned expression.
In other words, the British Duke is also involved with the Dong family? And what connects them is the Xuanyang Dao people? ”
Xiao Qinglang nodded, and said with a far-reaching gaze, "Not only that, but even the first emperor has a relationship with him." Even, I suspect that the completion of the Dong family's courtyard was originally the intention of the first emperor. Seeing that Xu Chu was puzzled, he continued to explain, "Everyone in the world knows that the completion of the Dong family's courtyard is because of Dong Guifei's favor, so that it exceeded the regulations and fixed numbers, but it was also ignored by the first emperor. However, thirty-six years before the first emperor, Dong Guifei often won the first emperor, favor, and luck, but there was never a sign of soaring, so that the living notes and the inner court never wrote more than one stroke for it. Why did she suddenly become an emperor, a favorite, and a concubine after thirty-six years of the first emperor, and she could still make the first emperor and the ancestors ignore the rules? ”
"Moreover, at the beginning of Dong Guifei's favor, the first emperor's favor and love for her were not all bottomless. Before I joined the Three Law Divisions, I had consulted the Inner Court's records on the rewards and punishments of the palace concubines, and at the beginning, although Dong Guifei was favored and favored, she was often punished. It wasn't until fifty-three years after the first emperor that she was suddenly able to cover the sky with one hand in the harem. ”
In addition, the Xuanyang Taoist also entered the Taoist practice in the thirty-sixth year of the first emperor, and in the same year, he supported the Taoist temple together with Jingxu Shitai. Then, while performing the resurrection technique of the corpse spell in the dark room of the Taoist temple, he secretly alchemy in the Dong family's courtyard. ”
"I guess that the reason why the Dong family is favored and favored is probably inseparable from this matter. And the sudden change of the first emperor may also have another internal story. As he spoke, his eyes swept over Xu Chu.
Seeing Xu Chu's solemn expression, he couldn't help but sigh, stretched out his hand to pull the person to his side, and whispered, "Don't worry, in the end, it's just a case with other internal circumstances and twists and turns." ”
Xu Chu felt the shallow strength and warm touch on his wrist, and only after a while did he frown and say, "I know, but I still feel that there are still things hidden here that are even more shocking than the Tantric rebellion." ”
When Xiao Qinglang heard this, his face did not change, and he deeply forgot about Xu Chu, and then calmly said, "No matter how shocking it is, it is just a case." ”
Xu Ku took a deep breath and nodded slightly. Maybe Xiao Qinglang's tone was too ordinary, or maybe she had no way back when she came to this point, so when Xiao Qinglang clenched her fingers, her heart really calmed down.
In autumn, although there are many days of high and cool autumn, it is difficult to keep the rainy time. Just like now, there was still some faint dawn in the sky before the last dynasty, but after the next dynasty, the sky suddenly became gloomy.
Because he wanted to check the secret passage in the palace today, Xiao Qinglang did not take Xu Chu out of the palace, but went straight to the inner court, and asked people to inform the imperial dining room to prepare two more meals.
In the past, when he was in the inner court to investigate the case, he would often do so. Later, the emperor felt sorry for him for the case, so he ordered the imperial dining room to prepare meals for him every time, which must be elaborate and rich.
It is precisely because of this that Xiao Qinglang has never mentioned that anything is not enough or not in line with the taste. Nowadays, it is very rare to send someone to tell the imperial dining room to prepare some refreshing side dishes, and if there are clear cucumbers, you should put more chili peppers and rice vinegar.
Knowing that King Jing'an had suddenly changed his taste, the masters of the imperial dining room were surprised. Later, I inquired and learned that the person who ate with the prince today was Lord Xu, who had just been married, and Lord Xu was born in the countryside, had a strong taste, and liked sour and hot food.
The imperial chefs sat and ate with their hands and feet, and sighed in their hearts, they didn't expect that King Jing'an, who was abstinent and restrained, light and elegant, and had always been silent and introverted, would have a day when he would be impressed by women. But then again, I heard that most of the men who love the Venerable Master will be extremely capable, and it seems that this statement is really not false.
After the busy work in the imperial dining room, everyone had to get together and try new dishes while chatting quietly. Due to the special instructions of King Jing'an this morning, the object of the big guy's discussion is naturally the extremely miraculous Lord Xu who has been rumored by many people.
Xu is Xu Chu's words in the market are too hot, and they have been introduced to the palace, so when the steward in charge of procurement talked about it, it attracted a lot of idle palace people to come over.
The cases that Xu Chu has solved are becoming more and more legendary, and she also selflessly passed on many life-saving techniques to doctors everywhere, and taught her autopsy skills to others.
"How is that possible, Master Xu is not stupid, teach her apprentice to starve to death of her master, is she really willing to teach her own housekeeping skills to others?"
"Then what's impossible, in fact, not only the inner court and Dali Temple are grateful to her. Even the famous doctors in the capital, as well as Imperial Doctor Zhang and Imperial Doctor Zhao, were full of praise and excitement when they mentioned Lord Xu. Another person interjected, "My nephew had thirst quenching disease before, and it was a fatal thing, and many doctors were helpless, and he was finally saved by Dr. Zhou in the capital." That doctor, Dr. Zhou said that his method of curing the disease was thanks to the medical book passed on by Master Xu. ”
As soon as these words fell, everyone was in an uproar. Everyone knows thirst quenching, but if you get it, you are waiting to die. It would be a great thing if we could cure this disease. And many of the people who get this disease are kings and grandsons, nobles or wealthy families, so as long as this disease can be cured, let alone gold and silver treasures, it is a real name that can be handed down.
