Tao Qi nodded, and went down the mountain with the guards.

Song Yao looked at the back of Tao Qi leaving, thoughtful. Why can't he find out what happened to Hua Niang back then from Su Hu and his mouth, and Xu Shuyou always asks her to do things, but never tells her the reason, which makes her feel like she is deliberately testing her ability.

Alas, she shook her head. Both of them were silent, and it seemed that if they wanted to know the reason, they were afraid that they would have to go to the last apprentice.

Huiyun asked inexplicably, "Ah Yao, who are you talking about the flower girl?" ”

Song Yao hurriedly said: "Layman, Hua Niang is the apprentice of the former imperial doctor to mention Su Zhen, have you heard of it?" ”

I saw a thoughtful look in her eyes, and said after a while: "Su Zhen, Su Zhen was indeed still working in the Tai Hospital when the first emperor was there. It was only later that because of Concubine Shu's miscarriage, a major case was involved in the DPRK and China. Su Zhen was demoted and exiled, and soon after hearing about it, he fell ill and died on the way. ”

Song Yao was surprised: "Miscarriage? ”

Huiyun nodded: "Yes, the concubine back then was deeply favored, and that momentum was almost the only favor, and the first emperor stayed in her palace for twenty days in a month." At that time, Concubine Shu was diagnosed as pregnant with a dragon and phoenix fetus. The first emperor was overjoyed and went to see her almost every day, hoping to give birth to the pair of children one day. Results ......"

Song Yao then asked, "What's the result?" ”

She continued: "As a result, before the fourth month, due to the miscarriage of things by mistake, the first emperor was not in the palace that night, but went to Yangcheng to investigate the locust plague and swallow relief, and all the imperial doctors on duty that day happened to be unable to go to the palace of the concubine because of something at home or other concubines, only Imperial Doctor Su was free. It's a pity that he still couldn't keep Concubine Shu's child. ”

Song Yao pondered for a while and said, "So, Imperial Doctor Su was convicted for this?" ”

Huiyun said: "Things are not so simple, after the first emperor came back, the thunder was angry and investigated the matter thoroughly, the matter that night was the plan of Concubine Jing and the first queen, who had no children at that time, and was afraid that Concubine Shu's birth would affect her posteriority, so she made this decision." Even when the locust plague swallowed the disaster privately, it was calculated in advance. Imperial Physician Su was the only one who was not bought by the former empress, so he was also eradicated. But Imperial Physician Su's medical skills failed to save Concubine Shu's child after all, so the first emperor still couldn't forgive him. ”

I see.

Song Yao asked, "Have you heard of Hua Niang, the apprentice of Imperial Physician Su?" ”

She replied: "The flower girl you are talking about can't be the apprentice who was expelled from the sect back then, right?" ”

Song Yao hurriedly nodded yes.

She waved her hand: "I only know that there is a disciple who was indeed expelled from the sect by Imperial Physician Su, but I don't know the reason. I think only the four masters and apprentices back then can know. ”

It seems that the layman is also unclear. However, fortunately, she knew why Su Zhen disappeared in the Tai Hospital, and as for why she became Su Hu, she believed that it should have been agreed by the current Emperor Xian, otherwise why could she follow the two generals around.

……

Tao Qi went back and met Emperor Xian.

His Majesty asked, "How are you going to diagnose the concubine's health this time?" ”

He bowed his head and replied, "The concubine is weak, but according to Weichen's prescription, she should be able to gradually improve." ”

"Then what do you think of the relationship between the concubine and that Song Yao?"

He replied truthfully: "The two are comfortable and comfortable together, and the concubine is also very concerned about her body." ”

His Majesty was a little surprised: "What's wrong with her body?" ”

Tao Qi raised his head slightly: "Song Yao's body is not very good, it seems that she has been invaded by some cold object, and she has a deficiency disease." You need to stay away from cold things. ”

Emperor Xian frowned, originally wanted Song Yao to go to Wusun and kiss, but Wusun's place was in the northwest, so it was naturally colder than Ningguo. If she goes, I don't know if she can survive.

He hesitated a little. However, Song Yao is indeed the best candidate for harmony. Since this is the case, it is better to let the reinforcements support the Wusun prince Mimo first, and wait for the stability of Wusun's country, maybe Song Yao's body is properly recuperated, and then ask her wishes.

Emperor Xian looked at Tao Qi, who was speechless, and said, "Then you are responsible for continuing to take care of the concubine and Song Yao's bodies, sending people to deliver medicine every day, and reporting the situation to me on the fifth day." ”

Tao Qi bowed and withdrew.

Emperor Xian was also a little tired at this time, leaning on the dragon chair, and the picture of his childhood came to mind.

Back then, when he was still very young, because his mother was not favored, the graceful palace was also very deserted, his father rarely went to his mother's palace, and other princes did not play with him.

He felt very lonely, and often leaned on his mother's lap and asked, "Mother, when will my father come to see me?" ”

He vaguely remembered that the concubine's expression was flat, but her eyes were full of unbearability: "Your father is too busy to come here." You have to be considerate and considerate. ”

But he was ignorant, but he continued: "But why does my father have time to go to Concubine Shu's mother? I heard from my tenth brother that my father often went to visit Concubine Shu. Mother, doesn't my father like me? ”

At that time, the mother touched his head and said, "No, your father loves you very much." It's just that the lady concubine is not in good health, and your father should care more about her. ”

Although he got such an answer, he was still not satisfied, because he vaguely felt that his father did not like him.

So he worked hard every day, just hoping to get his father to look at him more.

One day, I remember that it was very cold and it was snowing in the palace. It had already accumulated a few feet thick, and he heard that his father was accompanying the concubine to enjoy the plum blossoms in the imperial garden, so he hurried over, wanting to seize the opportunity to contact his father. As a result, when he ran to the Imperial Garden, he fell without paying attention.

The floor was slippery and clammy and cold. He was anxious and angry, and his butt was hurt very much. Concubine Shu seemed to see his funny appearance, so she laughed stupidly, and her father also looked over here.

He was very excited, his father, his father finally saw him.

As a result, the father didn't come over to ask, and he was happy with Concubine Shu.

He heard his father say to the prince beside him: "This is a child of which palace, go and help him up." and reward him with a minot. After that, he said to Concubine Shu: "Ci'er, I finally saw you smile today." You've been holding back for so long, and you're about to make me anxious. This imperial garden is cold, the road is slippery, I came to hug Ci'er, Mo Jiao you also fell. When I go back, I'll want to have another child with you, okay? I saw my father pick up the lady concubine and walk cautiously, without looking back, and didn't come to see him after all.

Many, many tears welled up in his eyes at once, but a boy couldn't cry, and he looked up and tried to get the tears back.

The father-in-law came over and was about to help him, but he shook off his father-in-law's hand and said angrily: "I don't want you to help!" ”

The father-in-law said angrily: "Stinky boy, what do you think the family is, okay, I won't even give you this ingot of gold." With that, I kicked him in the ass.

He didn't look away from him.

After his father-in-law left, his tears finally couldn't help but sit in the snow and cry.

I only felt that a chubby little hand touched his face and said, "Brother, don't cry." ”

He looked up, and it was a lovely little girl, and behind the girl stood a beautiful woman, who seemed to be her mother.

The little girl wiped away his tears: "Brother, look, if Yiwan doesn't cry, you don't cry." ”
