Chapter 104: Inquiring
After dinner, Yuan Yingquan left Jinqing alone and asked Jinqing to go to his study. When Jinqing arrived, Yuan Yingquan talked for a while and asked a bunch of irrelevant questions, such as what are you busy with these days.
It wasn't until Jin Qing's face showed impatience that Yuan Yingquan put away the fake concern and said: "Don't blame your father for asking too much, this emperor has a bad day, and it will be difficult to live in peace when he is a courtier." ”
Jin Qing lowered her head, her eyes narrowed, she could almost guess what Yuan Yingquan was going to ask her later.
Sure enough, Yuan Yingquan smiled and asked tentatively: "Qing'er, what kind of disease does the emperor have, is it serious?" ”
Seeing Jin Qing's sneering face, Yuan Yingquan said earnestly: "Qing'er, don't be impatient to inquire about this for your father, the most taboo thing in this officialdom throughout the ages is to stand on the wrong team." ”
Yuan Yingquan saw that Jin Qing was indifferent, and he was a little anxious in his heart, so he paced in front of Jin Qing with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "Qing'er, if you are promoted for your father, can you lose your benefits?" When the time comes, you will have enough confidence to marry, and when the time comes, the Ye family's big house will not be able to treat you as an aunt and grandmother? ”
Yuan Yingquan stretched out his hand and patted Jin Qing's shoulder affectionately, "Silly girl, this is a major event related to your lifelong happiness."
Jin Qing took a deep breath and said calmly: "I really don't know what kind of illness the emperor has and how serious it is. Only Doctor Qiao and the other two doctors were allowed to treat the emperor, and I am not familiar with those two doctors. And Dr. Qiao has never mentioned the emperor's illness to me. ”
Seeing that Jin Qing's demeanor didn't seem to be lying, Yuan Ying was anxious but couldn't do anything, and said without giving up: "Silly girl, if he doesn't say it, you won't ask."
Jin Qing frowned, "The emperor's dragon is not in good health, how can we, as courtiers, inquire about the emperor's condition at will" If he is denounced, it is a big rebellious felony.
Yuan Yingquan gradually lost his patience, and said impatiently: "Don't make any excuses, you are the imperial doctor brought out by Qiao Shi, what is wrong with caring about the emperor's condition as an imperial doctor?" ”
It's just that he asked her to inquire about something, and Yuan Yingquan, who actually pushed back and forth, was annoyed, but there was nothing he could do, his daughter who came out halfway was by no means something that could be shocked by a few words of angry scolding like Jinxiu.
The fire sent by Jinqing on Chinese New Year's Eve, regardless of his face at all, this action completely made Yuan Yingquan understand, if she annoyed her, I don't know what kind of thing she will do. And now that her daughter is still very useful, she must not turn her face casually.
Jin Qing didn't bother to say more to him, and said vaguely: "I know, I'll inquire." "As for whether you can inquire and how much you can ask, it depends on Jinqing's meaning.
Yuan Ying was on fire in his heart, but he couldn't get it, seeing Jin Qing's perfunctory appearance, his heart was even more awkward, and he waved his hand to let Jin Qing out.
The moon had already risen in mid-air, and the cold moonlight sprinkled the entire courtyard, and the ground seemed to be covered with a silvery white light.
The wind was still cold in the early spring night, and when he came out of the study, Jin Qing gathered the clothes on his body, and glanced back at the study, under the dim light, Yuan Yingquan's gloomy face was cast a bright or dark shadow, and the yin test did not look like the handsome and gentle doctor in the daytime.
Jin Qing didn't care about speculating on Yuan Yingquan's thoughts, this father only knew how to use her, and didn't think about her at all, why did she care about his situation, but thinking about him, he had no roots, and he was nearly forty years old but he was still just a petty official in the capital, and he must be quite eager for promotion and wealth.
What Jin Qing thought in his heart was that Ye Wei'an wanted to get justice for his brother who died early, and in front of him were several big families united in the capital, and their forces were intertwined. On the other hand, for such a long time, the emperor's condition is mysterious, Qiao Shi is sad every day, and he will not be good, and King Jin and several princes are secretly-for-tat......
These people are all important people to Jinqing, and their affairs are all big stones that are pressing on her heart, as for Yuan Yingquan, whether he can be promoted and make a fortune, whether he is on the right team, these inconsequential things are far from Jinqing's consideration.
The emperor has been sick for more than ten days, Qiao Shi is still sad, Jin Qing and Qiao Zheng don't dare to ask a word, the entire palace seems to be shrouded in a solemn and oppressive atmosphere, and even the voice of the eunuch and palace maid is a few tones lower than in the past.
At noon that day, Jin Qing and Qiao Zheng hurriedly followed Qiao Shi to the outside of the palace, and when they passed through a garden, they were stopped by King Qi.
There was no one around, the garden was planted with all kinds of flowers and trees, and the flowers were blooming in spring, but everyone had no interest in appreciating the flowers, and there were no outsiders in the garden except them.
King Qi looked around, and then glanced at the attendant behind him, and the attendant nodded knowingly and put it on the outside of the garden.
"Imperial Doctor Qiao, how is my father's illness?" King Qi smiled kindly. However, there was no smile in his eyes, and he was inadvertently full of arrogance, as if everything was under control.
Jin Qing was shocked in his heart, this King Qi is so bold, he actually dares to inquire about the emperor's situation openly at this time, and he is not afraid that the wall has ears?
Qiao Shi's head was buried lower, his forehead was full of sweat in the early spring weather, and he bowed again and again: "Your Highness, rest assured, the emperor's illness will be cured soon." ”
"Soon? How fast? It's been so long......" King Qi seemed to say to himself.
Jin Qing suddenly thought that this King Qi seemed to be the emperor's eldest son, and he was now nearly thirty years old, and the current emperor inherited the throne at the age of twenty......
Qiao Shi bowed his head and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, you will raise it for a while......"
Before Qiao Shi finished speaking, King Qi impatiently interrupted Qiao Shi's words, "Imperial Doctor Qiao, are you sure that your father's illness will be cured?" ”
Qiao Shi was shocked and quickly knelt down, and when he knelt, Qiao Zheng and Jin Qing, who were originally standing behind him with their heads bowed, could only kneel down.
Qiao Shi was covered with sweat, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness, you can't talk nonsense, the emperor's dragon body has its own heavenly blessing, and it will definitely turn evil into good fortune, not to mention that the emperor's illness is not serious, soon, it will be fine soon"
"This king knows that you doctors, one by one, have no ability to cure diseases, and I am afraid that others will look down on you, if your father's illness is not serious, why has it been delayed for so long?" King Qi sneered.
Qiao Zheng knelt behind Qiao Shi, anxious, his second uncle was a fiery temper, and the king of Qi was accusing the second uncle of being mediocre and causing the emperor to be ill for a long time. If Qiao Shi can't control his temper and angers the King of Qi, if the emperor has any three longs and two shortcomings, the Qiao family will not have a good time in the future.
What made him even more suspicious was that the second uncle seemed to have something unspeakable, he was nervous all the time, and his legs and stomach trembled slightly under the cover of the long shirt. King Qi is not a majestic person, and if he is a doctor to the level of Qiao Shi, he is afraid that even if the emperor gets angry in front of him, he will not make Qiao Shi sweat nervously and have cramps in his legs.
I'm afraid that Qiao Shi still has important things to hide from him, could it be that the emperor is really not good? The more Qiao Zheng thought about it, the more bottomless his heart became, and his heart sank straight into the endless black hole, the Taiyi was beautiful on the surface, but in fact, it was not a profession with his head pinned to the waistband of his pants
King Qi is not broad-minded, more than 30 years of princely career has already made him suspicious, grass and trees, as the eldest son of the prince but suppressed by the prince of the concubine, before King Qin was reprimanded, he was not everyone's optimistic successor.
It's just that after Chinese New Year's Eve, the wavering people in the court swarmed towards King Qi, and together with the officials who originally supported him and the empress, they also formed a huge force, and he was the only one who looked forward to him all day.
These days, the emperor does not go to court, does not see the ministers, only important recitals are sent to the emperor's bedroom for the emperor's instructions, and the rest are indicated that he, the prince, will do the work for him, which is a disguised default that he is the crown prince and the next emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
However, the emperor's illness dragged on for too long, and it dragged on until he had little patience to wait any longer, he was almost thirty years old, and the old immortal was still in that position, his mother's identity was not noble, his family background was not prominent, and the power of his grandfather's family was far inferior to that of Concubine Zheng Guifei.
If the emperor is still alive and gives King Qin a chance to breathe, who will be in the hands of the throne at that time? He has endured it for so many years, and it is not that the bamboo basket is empty, so he urgently wants to determine whether the emperor is really sick.
But the three doctors who diagnosed the emperor, two of them did not leave the emperor's bedroom, and the only one who could find out the news was Qiao Shi in front of him. It's a pity that this Qiao Shi doesn't seem to have a lot of brains, and he always comes to him.
"Sickness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread. His Royal Highness should understand this truth, the emperor is old, how can it be so fast. Qiao Shi replied neither softly nor hard.
King Qi's eyes narrowed, since he is so ignorant, if he has to toast and not eat and drink, then don't blame him for not giving face. "Qiao Shi, this king thinks that you are an old man who serves his father, and if you give you three colors, you dare to open a dyeing workshop?"
The sweat on the tip of Qiao Shi's nose dripped to the ground, instantly penetrating into the soil under him, leaving only dark black marks, Qiao Shi took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, opened his mouth a few times, and finally couldn't help it, gritted his teeth and said: "Your Highness, are you just looking at your biological father to die?"
King Qi suddenly became furious, pointed at Qiao Shi and snorted coldly: "You can see clearly the old things that don't know what to do, once the son of heaven and a courtier, if you are so ignorant, it won't be long before you regret it."
Jin Qing knelt on the ground with her head down, her hands clenched tightly into fists, King Qi's words were full of naked, naked, naked threats, just when she and Qiao Zheng were terrified, a majestic and old voice sounded, full of anger, "What? I'm getting better, but I'm disappointing you little brute? ”
