It has been a month since Gao Lang returned to the capital.

The old prince has long been buried, and the edict of the new prince has just been promulgated.

The emperor appointed the twelfth prince Zhao Yu as the crown prince, and rewarded the ministers and granted amnesty to the world.

In the capital in June, the weather has become hot, but the heat is not enough.

Gao Lang rode a fast horse and just arrived in front of the Hongyuan Gate, the horse under his crotch neighed, and a pair of front hooves collapsed and knelt down, and he lost his breath on the spot.

Gao Lang didn't care about the horses, and went straight to the Biwu Pavilion.

Lu Yun was guarding in front of the Biwu Pavilion, and when she saw Gao Lang coming back, she was so happy that she even let go of Lin'er in her arms, but when she saw that Gao Lang was the only one who came in, her heart was cold and she frowned.

Before he could speak, he heard Gao Lang ask, "Is Xiaolou okay?" ”

Lu Yun nodded, shook his head again, and said, "Imperial Doctor Fu has been taking care of it, and he has fed the soup in every day, and it is also stable." But the imperial doctor also said that if it is a few days later, the long needle will not be taken out, and it will definitely hurt the heart, but I am afraid that the Daluo Immortal will be difficult to save. ”

After that, he raised his eyes and stared at Gao Lang: "Your Highness the Seventh, why didn't the Medicine King come back with you?" ”

Lu Yun is looking forward to the Seventh Highness coming back with the Medicine King to save his shopkeeper's life.

Gao Lang heard that Jin Xiaolou was fine, and he was relieved, and he didn't have time to explain to Lu Yun, so he quickly pushed open the door and walked into the house.

The sycamore trees outside are already shady, and the house is still full of stoves, and the heat is rolling in the heat wave when you enter, which is hotter than the dog days.

As soon as Gao Lang stepped into the house, a dense layer of sweat appeared on his back.

But when he walked to Jin Xiaolou's side, he covered her forehead, but the palms of his hands were cold to the bone.

Gao Lang's heart ached, and he leaned into the quilt to shake Jin Xiaolou's hand, the slender and thin hand was like a piece of ice that had not melted in the spring.

"Your Royal Highness, the little building girl's qi and blood are seriously insufficient, and if this long needle is not taken out, she will be unable to return to the sky!" Doctor Fu was stuffy in the house all day, wearing only a thin shirt, and at the moment his whole body was full of medicinal smells.

Gao Lang took out a green jade porcelain bottle from his sleeve, pulled the wooden cork, tilted it slightly, and poured out a cherry-sized, white and flawless ball.

"This is what the medicine king Zou Miao begged for." Gao Lang handed the pill to Imperial Physician Fu, "He said that as long as you take this pill, you can save your life without worry, and you have to take out the long needle." ”

"This ...... This ......" Doctor Fu's hands trembled a little, and he repeatedly looked at the white jade pill by daylight, but after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't tell what kind of pill it was.

Imperial Physician Fu naturally knew that the King of Medicine would never come forward to practice medicine, but he made a gamble with people back then, if he practiced medicine again to save people, he would cut off his children and grandchildren, and it was not easy for His Royal Highness the Seventh to get a pill out.

Although I can't see the effect of this pill, the medicine king has already spoken, and it must be right to think about it.

Without further ado, Imperial Physician Fu immediately ordered Lu Yun to bring hot water, cleaned his hands, crushed the white jade pill finely and fed it to Jin Xiaolou to eat, then prepared a small silver tongs and a cloth soaked in spirits, and sat on the edge of the bed.

Before starting to take the needle, Imperial Doctor Fu asked all the windows to be closed tightly, and not a trace of wind was allowed to enter.

Then wipe Jin Xiaolou's chest with a cloth, because of the separation between men and women, only a small piece of the shirt on Jin Xiaolou's chest was cut, revealing the piece above his heart.

Doctor Fu sat on the edge of the bed, picked up the small pliers, found the end of the long needle, and went down in the blink of an eye, and took it out easily.

It is really easy to remove the long needle, but the difficult thing is that the heart can be restored to its original state after removal, and the blood will not be blocked and turbulent. This Imperial Physician Fu was not sure, so he had to pin his hopes on the medicine king's pills.

Gao Lang kept holding Jin Xiaolou's hand tightly, for fear that as soon as he relaxed, the people in front of him would melt into the spring light like ice and snow.

Imperial Physician Fu took a deep breath and began to take the circle of silver needles he had pierced around his heart.

If it is unsuccessful, it will be seen that the silver needle will be taken out, and Imperial Doctor Fu will hold his breath and concentrate, twist his fingers, one at a time, and quickly remove all the silver needles.

As soon as the last silver needle left Jin Xiaolou's chest, Imperial Physician Fu put his hand on Jin Xiaolou's vein, and after a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "The medicine king's medicine is really worthy of its name, the meridians are not chaotic, and the girl Xiaolou will wake up from time to time!" ”

It wasn't until this moment that Gao Lang felt that he had also come back to life with Jin Xiaolou.

After Imperial Physician Fu packed up the medicine box and walked out of the door, Gao Lang leaned down and hugged Jin Xiaolou, put his lips to Jin Xiaolou's ear, and said softly: "Lady, you saved me three times, I have to pay it back with my life, I just hope that you will wake up quickly, you must wake up, our days are still long." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw a crystal tear gently sliding down the corner of Jin Xiaolou's closed eyes.

Gao Lang was overjoyed and hurriedly spoke: "Lady, you can hear me!" ”

Gao Lang then took off his shoes and socks, went to bed and leaned against Jin Xiaolou's head: "It must be boring for you to lie alone, lady, I will accompany you, talk to you every day, until you wake up." ”

For three days in a row, Gao Lang stayed by Jin Xiaolou's side every step of the way, personally feeding her soup and scrubbing her body.

Doctor Fu also came to check his pulse once a day, but the more he examined him, the more hesitant his face became.

In the afternoon of this day, Gao Lang fed Jin Xiaolou soup, hugged Lin'er and played next to her, and Imperial Doctor Fu came to diagnose the pulse as usual with the medicine box.

As soon as his hand was put up, he couldn't stop saying, "Strange." ”

Gao Lang frowned: "Is there something wrong?" ”

"It's right, it's very good, Miss Xiaolou's pulse is stable and strong, and it's no different from ordinary people." Imperial Physician Fu returned.

Gao Lang then asked, "What is the Imperial Doctor wondering about?" ”

"It is precisely because the pulse is the same as that of ordinary people that it is strange! According to this pulse, the girl in Xiaolou should have woken up early, why didn't she wake up at this moment? Imperial Physician Fu was puzzled and shook his head, "Could it be that there is something wrong with the medicine king's medicine?" ”

"No, it won't." Gao Lang spoke, "Zou Miao said that he had taken medicine, and he could find a doctor at random to take the needle, as long as the pulse was stable, he would wake up in a few days." ”

"That's weird!"

Imperial Physician Fu rubbed his eyebrows, and was thinking about it, when the door of the house opened, and Wen Mei walked forward with her head down and went to fetch the soup bowl that His Royal Highness had just finished feeding his wife.

As soon as the soup bowl was served, Imperial Physician Fu's face immediately changed: "Wait a minute! ”

Imperial Physician Fu suddenly stopped, and was so frightened that she almost dropped the bowl.

"This ...... What's in this soup bowl? Doctor Fu took the bowl to his nose and sniffed it carefully.

"It's minced minced with tender fish meat and white peony, and my wife has been eating this all this time." Ask Mei to answer honestly.

"Who cooked this soup?" Imperial Physician Fu put the bowl down, raised his face and asked Mei.

"Because I don't feel at ease when I hand it over to others, the soup that my wife drinks is cooked by Sister Nanyang herself every day." When I asked Mei to see the look of the imperial doctor, I only felt that things were not good.

Imperial Physician Fu's expression was constricted, and he raised his voice and said to Gao Lang: "Your Highness Seven, there is Shi Xiangsan in this soup. ”

"Shi Xiangsan?" Gao Lang raised his eyebrows, he knew that Shi Xiangsan was a spice that calmed the nerves and helped him sleep, and when he couldn't sleep well in the past, the maids below would occasionally burn Shi Xiang and scatter it in the smoker.

"That's right." Imperial Physician Fu nodded, "This stone incense has a special smell, I know it as soon as I smell it, it can be used as a smoker when it is lit, but if it is taken orally, it can kill people!" ”

Imperial Physician Fu continued: "I just carefully smelled Miss Xiaolou's soup bowl, the amount used by the person who gave the medicine is very small, not enough to kill it at one time, but if you take it like this every day, I am afraid that people will not wake up again." The girl in Xiaolou had a stable pulse, but she never woke up, because of this stone incense. ”

Gao Lang's brows became tighter and tighter, and the cold light in his eyes made his hair stand on end.

Asked Mei Diesheng shouted: "It will never be Sister Nanyang, Sister Nanyang has already devoted herself to Mrs. ......"

But before he finished speaking, Gao Lang had already spoken: "Come on, bring Nanyang to the study." ”

Then he turned his head and asked the imperial doctor: "Xiaolou can still be saved?" ”

In just six words, Gao Lang's heart was trembling.

"Naturally, there is." Imperial Physician Fu took out the pen and paper in the medicine box, raised his hand and wrote a prescription, "Fortunately, I found it in time, and if I take it according to this prescription, I can quickly eliminate the medicinal effect of Shi Xiangsan." ”

Fang Zi handed it out and handed it to Lu Yun, who hurriedly grabbed the medicine with Lin'er in her arms.

In the study, Gao Lang sat at the top, and Nanyang, who was kneeling at the bottom, looked confused.

Gao Lang raised his hand and threw the soup bowl in front of Nanyang, seeing that Nanyang was still confused, he couldn't help but speak: "Nanyang, you have followed me since you were a child, do you know that Jin Xiaolou's life is my life." ”

Nanyang nodded hurriedly: "Seventh Master, I used to be bad to my wife, but since my wife sacrificed herself to save you, I have sworn that even if I lose my life, I will protect my wife." ”

"Really?" Gao Lang looked at Nanyang's eyes, "Then who ordered the stone incense in this bowl?" ”

"Shi Xiangsan?" Nanyang was taken aback, "I don't know, Madame's soup is cooked by me every day, how could someone have drugged it?" ”

Nanyang didn't lie, the soup that Jin Xiaolou ate every day was cooked by her own hands in the kitchen, and even brought it into the Biwu Pavilion was only handed over to the most trustworthy Qianmei, just for fear of making a little problem in the diet.

I didn't expect that if I looked at it so closely, I would be drugged.

Nanyang was short of breath, and his face turned red: "How is it possible, not to mention that I boiled the soup, even the ingredients were personally seen by me, and I watched the processing, who can take advantage of it?" ”

Gao Lang looked at Nanyang without blinking, and when he saw that she didn't speak at all, his lips became tighter and tighter.

It took a long time before he withdrew his eyes and said lightly: "Fortunately, this matter has not been made public, Nanyang, you boil the soup as usual, don't say a word, it's the fox that always shows its tail." ”

"Yes." Nanyang responded, looking at the gloomy expression of His Royal Highness the Seventh, his heart was clenched, and he wished that he could lie there for his wife, even if he couldn't afford to lie down.

As long as Her Highness has true happiness, she is willing to do anything.
