206. Windfall
She was chatting with the maid in the backyard just now, and the other party said that the prince had always been in good health, but she didn't expect to fall ill this time. The hundreds of princes in the palace consulted, but they couldn't see what kind of illness he had.
This sentence of the ancient rumor suddenly reminded Su Xiaojin, and she slapped her knee suddenly.
Right, why didn't she think of it? Since this disease is unheard of, it is definitely not a disease of the Central Plains!
"Ancient ballad, you are so cute!" Su Xiaojin laughed and shook his body wildly.
Her happy madness startled the old rumor. What did I just say, why did Madame suddenly become so crazy?
"I know what is wrong with the prince. To be precise, he was not sick, but poisoned. Su Xiaojin looked at her at a loss and patiently explained to her.
Gu Yu covered his mouth in fright, and looked at her with frightened eyes. Oh my God, how bold it is for someone to dare to murder the crown prince!
"Shall we tell the emperor?" After a while, she asked in a whisper.
Su Xiaojin shook his head, there were many people at this time, and he rashly told the truth to the emperor, which was bound to startle the snake. It is better to continue to treat the prince quietly, and find a suitable opportunity to secretly investigate the truth of the matter in the future.
The ancient rumor nodded, if this matter spread, it would definitely cause panic among the government and the opposition, and the party opposing the prince would inevitably turn back and take the opportunity to dare him to step down from the position of prince.
After careful discussion, the two walked out of the room together.
The emperor and Tang Muchen, who had been waiting for a long time, saw Su Xiaojin coming out of the inner room and immediately got up from the stool. The maidservants who were waiting next to her also looked at her with expectant eyes.
"Your Majesty, the crown prince is indeed sick, although this disease is rare, but it is not incurable. After Rong Chen's wife went back, she carefully thought about it and then prescribed medicine to the prince. Su Xiaojin dealt with it calmly, generous and polite.
The emperor listened, and the dragon was happy. At the same time, he also secretly sighed that there were 100 imperial doctors in the palace, and there was no one Su Xiaojin. It's ridiculous! If you let others know at this time, you will lose your royal face.
Tang Muchen was worried that his wife was tired, so he begged the emperor to let his wife go home to recuperate first, and then send the prescription to the prince's mansion.
The emperor hurriedly nodded in agreement, anyway, the prince's illness will not be good for a while, if Su Xiaojin is tired again, wouldn't it be because of a small loss, who will be expected to treat the emperor in the future?
Coming out of the Prince's Mansion, Su Xiaojin only felt that his body was soft, and the groggy sleepiness also swept in. She leaned on Tang Muchen's shoulder and fell asleep. Tang Muchen looked at her delicate sleeping face, and felt faintly uneasy.
"Why don't you speak?" Su Xiaojin asked in a daze.
"You deceived the emperor just now, right?" Tang Muchen asked softly in her ear.
Su Xiaojin smiled, knowing that he couldn't hide anything from him. This guy looks silent, but he's actually really smart. That's it, I didn't want to hide it from him.
"It's not intentional. The prince's illness came strangely, very much like the poison of the Western Regions. I didn't dare to conclude, for fear that speaking outright would hurt the harmony between countries, so I naturally answered him cautiously. ”
"But what you said about going home to dispense medicine, is it also nonsense?" Tang Muchen was puzzled. She lied that the prince was sick in order to take care of the overall situation. But why did he deceive the emperor and say that he could heal the prince?
"No, I'm confident I can find an antidote." Su Xiaojin shook her head slightly, as if she guessed that Tang Muchen was not angry, she suddenly opened her eyes, looked at him with a smile and asked rhetorically.
"Will you believe me?"
"Faith." Tang Muchen finally surrendered under the gaze of Su Xiaojin's beautiful eyes. He believed in her medical skills, and even more in her kindness.
Su Xiaojin smiled, she knew that he would believe her. Even if the whole world doesn't believe her, it's okay, but he can't, because he is her husband!
"Alright, you can sleep again. I'll call you when you get to the place. Tang Muchen lovingly put Su Xiaojin's little head on his shoulder and gave her a solid support.
Su Xiaojin leaned on his shoulder and fell asleep. The older the month, the more tired she felt. Today, I was tired of traveling, and I felt even more sleepy.
......
Zhu Ling and Gu Yu followed the carriage side by side, Gu Yu experienced the Prince's Mansion during the day, and he was deeply touched in his heart, and he didn't talk much along the way.
Zhu Ling felt that she was acting strangely, and looked at her with some uneasiness. Since she came out of the prince's mansion, she has been unhappy, as if she has something on her mind.
"In the past, I always felt that my status was humble, and I had to grovel when I saw any prince and minister, but now I don't think so."
After walking for a long time, the old rumor said such a sentence inexplicably. After saying that, she felt uncomfortable, kicked the pebble on the ground, and watched the pebble fly away.
Today, after hearing that the prince was poisoned, she was particularly shocked, and she couldn't let go of it for a long time.
Princess Xiao Yu can't marry her beloved, and the prince was poisoned by traitors, which shows that people in high positions and powers may not be happy.
Zhu Ling nodded, he also felt this way. Seeing the lifeless appearance of the prince's mansion, he also felt very uncomfortable. I always felt like my chest was blocked by something, and I couldn't even breathe well.
The two chatted while walking, the more they talked, the more speculative they became, and the more they talked, the more they felt that the other party had a good relationship with them. Gu Yu was happy in his heart, he used to envy the relationship between Mrs. and Hou Ye, thinking that such an unswerving love was unavoidable, but now she seems to be less envious, because she also met the prince charming of her life.
The car was jolting forward on the road, and Su Xiaojin, who was sleeping soundly on Tang Muchen's shoulder, rose and fell with the vibration of the car.
Suddenly, Su Xiaojin stretched out his hand to wipe his mouth, as if he was wiping something.
Tang Muchen looked at Su Xiaojin and couldn't help laughing.
Su Xiaojin, who was asleep, didn't realize his ugliness at all. Because I slept too sweetly, I unconsciously drooled.
It turned out that because he missed the ice cream plate chicken and hot pot, this guy was even dreaming of eating and drinking.
Su Xiaojin dreamed that she was sitting cross-legged in front of a large table full of various delicacies, and the two waiters on the left and right were desperately serving her dishes. She looked at the bowl full of chicken thighs and mutton shabu, and happily danced on the stool with the rice bowl in her arms.
Tang Muchen looked at Su Xiaojin with a smile and a smile, although he was disgusted on his face, he carefully held her head to prevent her from being bumped by the car when she was drowsy.
"Tang Muchen, I really want to eat ice cream. How can you do this to me? Su Xiaojin in his sleep muttered to himself, and his tone was like a wronged child.
After listening to this, Tang Muchen felt a little guilty in his heart.
This lovely woman was even muttering about her ice cream when she was sleeping, which shows that she was really angry with herself last time.
