Volume 1 The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 49 Simple Fox Qiu
Not to mention Gu Cang and Queen Su's side, Concubine Shu's words in order to support her son were originally aimed at Gu Cang, but unexpectedly harmed Chiyu, but it also provoked others.
Seeing that his eldest son was compared to him like this, Concubine De, who had been watching from the wall, was not happy at the moment, although the He family of the wealthy family in Jiangzhou was not as good as Concubine Shu's own brother to lead the entire Youzhou army, and the hereditary first-class pillar of the country had such a noble status in the court, but in fact, it was not much the same, not to mention that the time when she married into the royal family was still before Concubine Shu, and the seniority should also be above her. Your Majesty, the fourth child has been busy for the birthday of his most respected father, but he has been busy for more than half a year, and he has also prepared a good gift for you, which is more precious than the longevity fruit!"
Concubine Shu just wanted to have a seizure, but before anyone else could speak, Gu Hai, who had the support of his mother, immediately stood up, and also pretended to salute: "On my father's birthday, the child didn't dare to be disdainful, and he tried his best to finally find a suitable treasure for his father as a gift!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the servant who had been waiting next to him also brought a mahogany tray with a delicate little porcelain vase on it, the mouth of which was sealed by a cork, and he had no idea what it contained.
With a smug pride on his face, Gu Hai glanced left and right at the others, and then explained: " The child only hates himself for being incompetent, can not share the worries of his father, and is worried that the dragon body of the father is mistaken by state affairs, so he specially concocted this elixir, the world knows that the land of the East Continent can fight well, and the body is strong, even if they are dying of old age, the spirit of the body is not comparable to our human race, because they have eaten a magical plant in the East Continent for a long time, and the sons and daughters have worked hard to find it, supplemented by various treasures, and refined this elixir, when they are tired, eat one, you can go to the lack of calming the nerves, supplemented by the body, many wonderful uses, and can even replace food๏ผโ
Hearing Gu Haiyang's self-satisfied introduction, Gu Xuan's eyes condensed slightly, there are still such divine objects in the Heart Dao Clan? I have to ask Lao Huo if it is true or not, but there is a vast and boundless sea of stars between the East and West Continents, it is difficult to cross, and the material exchanges between the two sides are extremely difficult, he does not have the ability of several other princes, he can find someone to get things from the Eastern Continent, seeing that the four treasures are presented one by one, and thinking that it is time to give his own gift soon, he is also a little uneasy at the moment.
Having said that, Gu Yi, the emperor of Liangguo, is indeed a very diligent emperor as his son said, which can be seen from the number of his children, the monarch is not as good as the minister, and he can take a leave of absence every day, he is tired of state affairs every day, and he works hard, twenty years is like a day, and he sleeps less, even the iron man can't bear it, so the human emperors of all dynasties, but those who are more diligent, most of them will die of exhaustion because of exhaustion under the age of fifty, those who are not diligent are addicted to the harem, hollowed out by wine, and the situation is similar, the human race does not have a long-lived emperor, this is like a spellใ
Gu Yi is only forty-five years old now, but the white hair born on his temples can't be made up by all kinds of supernatural tonics, there are special laws that have existed since ancient times in the Guysi Continent, all magic and magic are forbidden here, and the effect of foreign treasures or divine objects beneficial to the body on the human race is also greatly reduced, if this elixir can really regulate the breath, relieve fatigue, and benefit the body and mind, it is really valuable.
Again, no matter how many external objects there are, they are not as important as their own health.
After listening to Gu Hai's introduction, even Gu Yi himself couldn't help but subconsciously ask, "Is it so magical?"
He reached out and picked up the delicate small porcelain vase from the tray, and just as he was about to open it, Han Mink Temple, who was waiting on the side, suddenly stepped forward.
Gu Yi knew what he meant, waved his hand, and said casually: "It is impossible for my son to harm me, don't worry." โ
The lord of a country, the status is extremely noble, the common people, this diet is naturally very careful, on weekdays, every dish must have a special person to test the poison in advance, until it is confirmed to be correct before it can be presented to the emperor for consumption, and Han Mink Temple, as the great eunuch of the palm print in the palace, is also Gu Yi's henchman, so he naturally wants to come forward to taste it for the emperor first, and test the poison himself.
However, Gu Yi is a generation of male masters, and this thing was presented by his own son in full view, so he naturally didn't want to let his subordinates test the medicine with a fake hand, if he even had to guard against his own son, then he really should be called a lonely man, although his tone did not have a trace of blame at all, but this great eunuch with high martial arts skills and a high position in the harem still knelt on the ground in a hurry, and said: "It's the slave who has overstepped, please forgive your majesty." โ
"On a day of great joy, don't kneel, get up. Gu Yi didn't even look at it, just said casually, and then pulled the stopper, and a red pill was revealed from the porcelain bottle, and everyone in the field only felt a strong fragrance coming to their nostrils, and several concubines next to them smelled this smell, and they couldn't help but show a look of intoxication.
The concubine who had been wanting to open her mouth to refute Concubine De's eyes froze, she couldn't imagine that this concubine's son was so capable, and he was actually proficient in alchemy?
Gu Yi just glanced at it, without a moment of hesitation, he directly raised his head and swallowed the pill in his hand, and then took the bright yellow carved dragon tea bowl from Han Diao Temple, who stood up again next to him, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then sat on his dragon chair, closed his eyes and felt it.
The eyes of everyone in the entire Furong Zhai Hall were focused on him.
A visible red color suddenly appeared from Gu Yi's neck, spreading all the way up in the surprised expressions of everyone, and then a stretched look appeared on the face of the emperor of the Liang Kingdom, and then he saw a hot air steaming up from the top of his head, which was superb, lingering for a while, and then slowly dissipated, and a strong medicinal fragrance suddenly spread in the room, and the palace maids and others who accompanied him couldn't help but take a deep breath, feeling that their bodies were a little lighter.
After a while, Gu Yi, who felt that the medicinal power was almost exhausted, opened his eyes, and his face showed a look of relief and satisfaction.
He stood up from the dragon chair, stretched out his hand to stop Han Diao Temple, who wanted to come over to help, and shook it for a moment, with a look of surprise on his face.
"This, it's really a miracle medicine!"
"After taking it, it can indeed relieve fatigue, and there is a feeling of fullness, feeling a steady stream of warm current flowing from the stomach to the limbs, which makes people feel very comfortable. โ
Gu Yi crossed his waist and laughed: "Hai'er is good! Be rewarded! Come on, give the fourth prince Gu Hai ten buckets of shark beads, a thousand taels of gold, but then again, Hai'er, I still have to advise you one or two, alchemy is not the right way after all, on weekdays, learn more from your brothers, read the book, I wrote a poem of persuasion before, and I will take it back and read it later." โ
Although Gu Hai was not angry, he still quickly lowered his head and nodded yes.
Yes, I still took a lesson, where is Erchen addicted to alchemy, Erchen is addicted to pleasing you! These things are not all made by the subordinates.
The gift of the fourth prince Gu Hai was in the past, and Gu Yi, who was relaxed, felt in a good mood, and immediately raised his wine glass and said, "Come on, everyone drink this cup together!"
As soon as the words fell, Concubine Shu, who finally couldn't hold it back, reached out and grabbed Gu Yi, and said with a coquettish face: "Alas, Your Majesty, you haven't seen the gift prepared by Concubine Li's sister Yongle Palace." โ
Gu Cang's eyes on the side of the seat were slightly condensed, and he looked at Gu Xuan, who was a little restrained between the expressions on the opposite side, and sighed in his heart, so many years have passed since that old case, I didn't expect this concubine to still remember the grudge, Concubine Li's mother has been in a fight with the world since she entered the palace, and she refused to let go?
Gu Yi was pulled by someone here, and he didn't know what the person next to him meant, his face eased suddenly, but he didn't have a seizure, he just put down the wine glass gently, and said lightly: "Since Concubine Shu said so, let's take a look at the gift prepared by Xuan'er first." โ
Gu Xuan, who was at the table on the left, didn't dare to delay, so he quickly stood up with his head down, and arched his hand: "Father, on this occasion when heaven and earth are happy, Erchen and his mother made a fox fur for their father together to celebrate their father's birthday, and I hope that my father will not dislike it." โ
I saw a silver-white robe lying quietly on the tray brought up by the subordinate, and the scene was quiet all of a sudden.
Fox fur, no matter how expensive it is, is relative to the common people, for the royal family who are noble these days, it is just an ordinary thing.
However, for the Yongle Palace, which has always been poor, it is really impossible to find other objects to use as congratulatory gifts, and it can even be said that these festivals to be given gifts in a year are the most difficult times for Yongle Palace, because they can't take out decent things at all, and the people in the palace have laughed at the door of Yongle Palace more than once behind their backs, and they can't even take out a little money for the New Year.
Sensing the abnormality around him, Gu Xuan could only hang his head, like a general who had lost a battle, and even his voice couldn't help lowering a few points, and continued to explain: "The fox is a silver fox hunted by Erchen outside the city, and he personally peeled it and sewed it by his mother. โ
The silver fox is the most precious and rare species of foxes, but it is still the same sentence, a fox fur, and that's it.
At this moment when everyone was quiet, Concubine Shu's yin and yang strange voice sounded again: "Prince Xuan is really 'attentive', this fox fur is really 'precious'." โ
She deliberately bit the words 'heart' and 'precious' very hard, just to humiliate the other party.
Concubine Shu's own son Gu Lidu didn't open his mouth to help his mother because he didn't want to leave a bad impression on his father, and he had been unhappy with Gu Xuan, especially Gu Hai, who had consciously lost face at the state banquet for the envoys of the shark clan before, but he couldn't wait to shout: "Fifth brother, how can you be so careless, it's rude for the second brother to write a note casually, my father loves you Yongle Palace the most, now that my father is on his birthday, how can you deal with such a simple thing?"
In the eyes of outsiders, Gu Xuan is the person on the side of the crown prince Gu Cang, if he is not happy with Gu Cang's status as the prince, then he will naturally hate Gu Xuan, and if he can hit these two in front of the emperor, Gu Hai is naturally willing to do this kind of thing.
Even Gu Li, who has always been cautious, couldn't help but say nonchalantly: "Fifth brother, there is a ranch outside the city that breeds silver foxes, you can't buy this piece." โ
They wanted to say something more, but Concubine Li on the other side said: "The king is in front, I don't dare to hide it, this fox was indeed hunted by Xuan'er, and this robe was indeed sewn by the concubine herself." โ
Seeing that Concubine Li, as an elder, has spoken, the third prince and the fourth prince are no longer happy, and they can only shut up helplessly, even if they are no longer brainless, they also know that they should not argue with Concubine Li as a junior in this situation, this kind of thing The mothers of the two of them, as peers, will naturally do it.
Sure enough, the concubine here immediately spoke: "But this fox fur is too simple, didn't the prince say it just now, and the deeds are even more heartfelt, you must know that Li Er has traveled a lot of places for this longevity fruit, and I don't know how many people I begged, and finally got one." โ
