Chapter 3 The same words are different
When he went in, the painter happened to have just woken up, and suddenly saw someone coming in, and the painter subconsciously hid in the corner of the bed and didn't dare to squeak. Anyone in Prince Rong's mansion is something that he, a commoner, can't afford to mess with. Just now he just begged Nalan to let him go, but the guard who wanted to come in knocked him out without saying a word.
Huanqiu looked around, and finally saw someone in the corner of the bed, so Huanqiu immediately walked over with the medicine box. Taking out the things for the consultation, he looked up at the person in the corner of the bed.
The painter's aggrieved tears were rolled in his eyes by him, and he was also startled when he saw him.
"What's going on? Did the prince get angry and reprimand you, or was he angry with the princess again? ”
Huanqiu and Gu Jinzhi are old acquaintances, the two grew up together since childhood, after Gu Jinzhi married into the palace, those friends who were closer to him on weekdays also abandoned Gu Jinzhi because he made a male concubine for others, but Huanqiu never minded, and came to the palace from time to time to take care of Gu Jinzhi's body.
The painter shook his head frantically, and saw that he quickly jumped from the bed to the ground, and suddenly knelt down in front of Huanqiu:
"I'm just a grass farmer, and I only went into the palace to paint for the prince after receiving the money, and I don't know when I angered the prince and asked him to lock me up here. It's really my fault to stain the prince's words, and please help me beg the prince to let me out of the house. ”
Huanqiu was also frightened by the painter's performance, and without waiting for the painter to be helped up, Huanqiu pulled his arm and diagnosed the painter's pulse.
Along the way, Su Jiu had already said something a little different from Huanqiu about Gu Jinzhi, at first Huanqiu was full of disbelief, but now when he heard Gu Jinzhi's crazy words, he knew why other imperial doctors couldn't come, but Su Jiu had to carry himself.
After a moment, Huanqiu, who took the pulse for the painter, frowned, if Huanqiu remembered correctly, the last time he came to diagnose Gu Jinzhi's pulse was on the second day of Nalan Ci's southward journey, and he did diagnose it at that time, Gu Jinzhi was already pregnant for two months at that time.
Because the man's pregnancy was only written in ancient medical books, he couldn't believe that it took three pulses to determine that this was the truth. But just now Qiu was diagnosed for Gu Jinzhi's pulse, why did the happy pulse suddenly disappear?
Last time he diagnosed Gu Jinzhi's pulse, Huanqiu originally wanted to ask someone to tell Nalan Ci about his pregnancy, but there was no precedent for a man to be pregnant in Yuanjing, so Gu Jinzhi was also afraid that Nalan Ci would dislike him, so he begged Yu Huanqiu and asked him not to tell anyone about it.
Huanqiu could see how much Gu Jinzhi loved the child in his womb at that time. It is not easy for Gu Jinzhi to marry Nalan Ci, and there is no prince or county lord in Prince Rong's mansion yet, so it is no wonder that after Gu Jinzhi knew that he was pregnant, he had an unstoppable smile on his face, and when he saw it at that time, his heart was also moved.
Thinking of this, Qiu looked at the familiar face in front of him, and he grabbed the artist's wrist and forced him to pull him up from the ground.
"What is your surname, and what is your intention to come to Prince Rong's mansion?"
Bian Qiu has a harmless face of people and animals, but it is still quite scary to be angry, the painter is very timid, and he is so frightened by Huanqiu, and his feet are scared straight and soft:
"I, I, my name is Gu Jinzhi, I live in Liuyin Hutong in western Beijing, I came to the palace today just to help the prince paint a portrait, I am a grass people, how dare I come to the palace to cause trouble?"
"Gu Jinzhi? What are the three words, go to the table and write them! After hearing this, Huanqiu couldn't say what he felt, so in order to be cautious, he pulled the painter to the table.
The painter's hand kept shaking, but fortunately it didn't prevent him from writing the three words 'Gu Jinzhi', Huanqiu looked at the words written by the painter one by one, and thought about it quickly in his mind, and Huanqiu, who didn't speak anymore, ignored the medicine box he was carrying, and walked out with the piece of paper.
When the painter saw Huanqiu leaving, he didn't know what was going on, and he was very worried, it seemed that the neighbor was right, he must not be involved with the royal family because of the money, otherwise he would not die.
Thinking of this, the painter slumped into the chair in front of the table and looked at the roof in despair.
When Nalan Ci saw Huanqiu come out, he immediately got up and walked over, seeing that Huanqiu's face was much worse than before he just entered, Nalan Ci felt even more unsteady.
"How?"
Huanqiu looked at Nalan Ci, his mind was very chaotic now, but Huanqiu could be sure now, that is, the person in the house was not the son of the Taishi at all.
Huanqiu is a little fortunate now, thanks to the fact that he knew that Gu Jinzhi was pregnant, and now he can see that the person in the house is not Gu Jinzhi. However, Huanqiu also knew that if Nalan Ci hadn't held Gu Jinzhi in his hand, he would have lost the only bargaining chip to contain the Taishi.
Although Nalan Yong is worthy of his name and is actually a king, but for his ignorance of the government and politics, he only knows how to be greedy for women and alcohol, in contrast, Huanqiu still prefers to see Nalan Ci replace Nalan Yong as soon as possible and give the people of the world a good king.
Therefore, Qiu clenched his fists and made up his mind to tell Nalan Ci the truth of the matter, so as not to lose Nalan Ci's bargaining chips with the Taishi.
"Lord Wang, take a step to speak."
Nalan Ci glanced at Huanqiu, a little thoughtful in his heart, only looked at Nalan Ci without words, just strode in front, and finally entered the side hall of Jinlan Pavilion, and when Huanqiu saw it, he immediately followed.
In the side hall, Nalan resigned and retired all his subordinates, leaving only himself and Huanqiu:
"What do you want to say to this king?"
"Lord Wang, the minister grew up with Gu Jinzhi since he was a child, and since he entered the palace, everything has been taken care of by me. I just checked his pulse and found that his body is completely different from before. After all, he is the son of the Taishi, and he has used it the best from childhood to adulthood, so Jinzhi's body has always been very good, but the person who was in the middle just now has a weak body, and talking to Weichen is not Jinzhi at all. Under Wechen's forced persecution, the man revealed his identity, so Wechen could conclude that the person in the house was not the son of the Taishi, but a person who looked and had the same name as the son of the Taishi. ”
After that, Huanqiu handed the name written by the painter in his hand to Nalan Ci, who had never heard of such a bizarre thing, and naturally did not believe all of Huanqiu's words.
After taking the things handed over by Huanqiu, Nalan Ci saw the words 'Gu Jinzhi' on it, and Nalan Ci's eyes widened:
"Where in the world can there be such a thing, and do you know the consequences of deceiving this king?"
"Why did Weichen deceive the prince, everyone's connections are different, so Weichen can be judged from the pulse, and if it weren't for the prince's doubts, there are so many doctors in the hospital, if it's just because the prince's male concubine is sick, you can not name and let Weichen come over in person."
Huanqiu is a smart person, the meaning of Nalan Ci's heart was completely guessed by him, Nalan Ci also liked to do things with smart people, Nalan Ci knew a truth, and he didn't need to use suspicious people.
"You go back first, about today's incident, take care of your mouth, and you will save your life." There was no tone in Nalan Ci's words, but Qiu knew that Nalan Ci would do what he said, so he bowed his waist and knelt down, and left on his own.
Nalan Ci held the name of the painter in his hand tightly in the side hall, and an unusual look flashed in his sharp eyes......
That night, Nalan Ci was alone, brought a pot of wine into the door of Jinlan Pavilion, and saw the painter hiding in the corner trembling, and for a moment, Nalan Ci's heart stopped beating half a beat.
knew that the person in front of him was not the son of the Taishi, and he also knew that his love for the son of the Taishi was entirely because of his identity, but the painter in front of him made Nalan Ci feel slightly strange.
Thinking of this, Nalan Ci found that he was distracted, so he immediately pulled his thoughts back:
"Gu Jinzhi is right, this king said that he would invite you to drink, then he would not break his word, come, this is a thirty-year palace cellar, if it is in the market, but you will never see such a good wine."
Nalan Ci put the wine on the table and sat down by himself, glass after glass, only to see that he had tasted three glasses by himself before putting down the wine glass:
"I guess you're worried right now, you don't know what's going on, right? Since this king has come here today, he is not afraid to tell you. You should know that there is a male concubine in this palace, and he is the son of the Taishi, right? A few days ago, he suddenly left the house and disappeared without knowing his whereabouts, and the king sent people to look for him for a long time, but he did not see anyone alive or dead. ”
