Tuoba Hong put down the roster in his hand and waited to hear him say >
Gao Gao Huan took out a piece of cloth and put it on the rosewood case in front of him, "The minister has recorded it in detail here, please take a look at it." He never refused these strange requests of the emperor, nor did he ask why. For him, everything is a transaction, he can fulfill the emperor's wishes that he does not want to be known, and the emperor can give him the power to change his identity and destiny.
On the cloth is a prescription, when the favorite concubine of Emperor Xiaowu of Jin suffered from qi disease when she was pregnant, Emperor Xiaowu of Jin once visited famous doctors all over the world, and found this prescription that can not only suppress asthma, but also will not hurt the fetus. Later, the Jin Dynasty collapsed, and the prescription was left out along with the few remaining pills at that time. The medicinal materials needed for this recipe are all precious and rare, so although the recipe has been circulated for many years, not many people really use it.
The sneer at the corner of Tuoba Hong's mouth was even thicker, and he tightened his fingers and clenched the cloth in his palm. Seeing that Gao Gao Huan was still in front of him, he let go of his fingers one by one, forced his expression to return to normal, and said lightly, "You are prudent and cautious, and you are only in charge of the ritual sacrifice, which is really overkill." Wait for me to find an opportunity to transfer you to be an official of China and North Korea. Cleaning up the remnants of the Gao clan is also thanks to you and Zhaorong for making great contributions. ”
Gao Huan lowered his eyelids and replied in a calm tone, "After all, the minister is the adopted son of the Gao family, and cleaning up the remnants of the Gao family is really not a glorious thing, please don't mention it specifically to the emperor." ”
He got up and retreated, leaving Tuoba Hong alone to sit where he was. The crumpled cloth fell on the table. Below the prescription, there are a few lines of small characters, recording the situation of several pharmacies in Pingcheng purchasing those precious medicinal materials at a high price. Those pharmacies happen to be Wang Xuanzhi's industry.
Feng Miao had been "recuperating" in the Huayin Hall for six days, and she didn't know what Tuoba Hong planned to do with this child. Because of that quiet recuperation commandment, she couldn't even go to the Fengyi Hall to meet the Empress Dowager.
As soon as lunch was served, Liu Quan's voice sounded outside the door. Feng Miao was originally reclining on the couch and was about to take a nap, but he didn't expect him to come at this time, so he hurriedly got up and dressed up, and asked him if he wanted to pass some food.
Tuoba Hong was a little absent-minded, as if he was thinking about something else. He still held Feng Miao on his lap, but it was not as intimate as usual, and there was some unnatural stiffness between his movements. When he spoke, there was a hint of temptation, "Miao'er, do anyone else know about your pregnancy?" ”
Feng Miao's heart jumped, and she subconsciously thought that he was asking the Empress Dowager, and replied in a low voice, "No, this kind of thing, Miao'er is naturally the first to tell the child's father." ”
Tuoba Macro repeated in a strange tone, "Father? ”
Feng Miao faintly felt that his tone was not quite right, but he asked himself, there was nothing that would make him feel unhappy.
"I heard a very interesting thing, several pharmacies in Pingcheng are buying a few medicinal herbs that will not hurt the fetus and can suppress asthma at a high price." Tuoba Hong's hand stroked her chin, and it seemed that he could strangle her neck at any time, "A few days ago, I heard from Sister Yao that Wang Xuanzhi asked about your asthma in the Empress Dowager's bedroom......"
The hanging heart suddenly "clicked", Feng Miao listened quietly at first, the more he listened, the more frightened he felt, he didn't dare to think about the meaning of his words, his eyes widened, and the more he wanted to take a deep breath, the more rapid and weak his breath became.
"Miao'er ......" Seeing her face turn blue, Tuoba Hong felt a trace of remorse in his heart, he didn't want to ask her like this, he would rather believe that Wang Xuanzhi was holding this prescription and wanted to tell him some conditions. He and Wang Xuanzhidu knew each other, each took what they needed, used each other and guarded against each other. But as soon as he saw Feng Miao, the words blurted out uncontrollably.
He was not able to coax people, and hurriedly turned to what he was about to say, because he was in a hurry, his tone became more and more stiff and indifferent, "Miao'er, I asked the imperial master who gave you a pulse last time, and your situation is indeed not suitable for childbearing. I don't think it's ...... this time."
Feng Miao broke free from his lap, staggered back a few steps, and leaned against the corner to look at him. She put her hands on her lower abdomen, like a little beast forced to have no way out, and arched her back slightly.
"Miao'er, come here, I'm just discussing with you......" Tuoba Hong was just about to take a step forward, Feng Miao screamed and fled backwards in a hurry. But behind her was the cold and hard wall, and there was nowhere to hide.
He didn't want this child, so he didn't want it, and even suspected the child's origin to humiliate her.
Feng Miao raised her hand and clenched her neckline, wanting to open it up for some breathe, but it became more and more difficult to breathe. She leaned against the wall, slipped softly, and tried her best to maintain the last trace of clarity in her mind, "Your Majesty, please let me keep this child, I am willing to do it with the emperor...... Do a swap. ”
She has been thinking about how she can turn this child into a useful pawn in the eyes of his father for the past few days. When she is not discouraged, she is still reluctant to use this method. But it's good to use it, and finally you don't have to wobble and torture people anymore.
"What exchange? Just say it. Tuoba Hong saw that she was enduring the pain of suffocation, and his heart was like a knife. But he didn't dare to step forward, his actions would only make Feng Miao more nervous and anxious, and the pain of not being able to lift his breath became more and more intense.
Feng Miao was already a little confused, and she couldn't see the distress and worry on his face that couldn't be hidden, and she could only hear his calm and calm words clearly, asking her to tell her about the conditions of the exchange.
"I can...... Bear the world's infamy for the emperor. Feng Miao's words were cut into broken pieces by the rapid, heavy gasping sound, "The emperor can pray for this child in the name of blessing...... To make an offering to a stone Buddha statue and build a Buddha statue in the mountains, you need to ...... In need of manpower, the emperor can take the opportunity to send trustworthy generals to train soldiers and horses that do not belong to any prince or noble. Before this son was born, he wasted money and built a large number of buildings, which is already immoral...... A person who is immoral naturally cannot be a prince, let alone inherit the unification. ”
The offering she is talking about is to dig a cave in the mountains and ask skilled craftsmen to carve Buddha statues in the cave, which is the most pious way for good men and women to make vows. The cost of carving stone statues is huge, and even for eunuchs, it sometimes takes generations of grandparents to complete it. There has never been a precedent for an unborn child to make offerings to a Buddha statue.
Feng Miao knelt on the ground, her lips gradually turned white, and the faint voice in her mouth was still pleading, "Please...... Promise ......"
Tuoba Hong stepped forward, caught her limp body, held her hand and said, "Don't speak, I promise you." He did think about not having this child, but it was only because he didn't want to lose her in order to have an heir. He even thought, somewhat ridiculously, that if she admitted it herself, he wouldn't have to be in a dilemma, he could.
He just didn't expect that Feng Miao loved this child more than he loved his own life.
When Feng Miao woke up, the first thing he did was to reach out and touch his lower abdomen. As soon as he moved, he felt a few thin silver needles pierced in the acupoints of Xuanji, Xuanji, and Sanjian, and he couldn't help but snort in pain.
"Miao'er, the child is fine, don't worry......" Tuoba Hong stepped forward to take her hand and told her not to move. He saw that Feng Miao was sick to the point of fainting, he couldn't breathe, and almost died, and he was shocked and afraid to guard her for a day and a night, and his eyes were full of red bloodshots.
Feng Miao turned her head to see him, and thought blankly, the person who can be the emperor is really not an ordinary person, and even his concern is so realistic. One moment she suspected that her child was a wild seed that came by fornication, but the next moment she cherished it like a jewel, and it seemed that the terms of exchange did move him. The acolyte stepped forward and removed the silver needle from her acupuncture points. Feng Miao only felt sleepy, tiredness seemed to come out of her bones, and her hands and feet were sore. She didn't want to say a word, and closed her eyes heavily.
The second good news in the palace of this year soon spread throughout the six palaces. Tuoba Hong personally drafted the decree and named Feng Miao as the noble lady, and became the most noble person in the palace. He also passed down an edict, saying that Feng Miao's asthma had not recovered, and no one was allowed to come to Huayin Hall to disturb her tranquility.
Honeysuckle was so happy that she was almost incoherent, and kowtowed to Feng Miao to say hello, congratulating her on finally coming to the end of her life. Feng Miao didn't see much joy, but she didn't tell Honeysuckle the reason. Since Tuoba Hong behaved so seamlessly and without flaws, she also tried her best to play the role of a "favorite concubine" who was about to have a child.
She opened her mouth to ask for a knighthood for her younger brother, but Tuoba Hong almost didn't think much about it, so she gave Feng Shu the virtual title of the Duke of Beiping County, almost on a par with Feng Dan.
She said at the family banquet at the right time that she felt that the fetus was unstable and wanted to go to the temple to pray for blessings. Tuoba Hong immediately took pity on her hard work with tenderness and affection, and said that he would carve a Buddha statue on Wuzhou Mountain west of Pingcheng for her and the child in her womb.
She was so happy that she couldn't eat, so Tuoba Hong ordered people to bring fresh vegetables from the south of the border day and night.
It turns out that as long as he doesn't ask for false love, no matter how much he wants, he can give it.
Feng Miao rarely spoke, and sometimes went to the Sogo Palace to serve, and only sat quietly on the small couch. Only one day, when her belly was already five months old, Feng Miao sat on the side of the rosewood case, and suddenly felt a warmth in her abdomen, accompanied by a gurgling sound, as if a small hand was gently pushing inside, just like the time Gao Zhaorong asked her to touch it.
It was the first time she felt so directly that there was really a little life growing up in her womb. Almost forgetting that he was still serving in the Sogo Palace, tears soon blindfolded his eyes. Tuoba Hong, who had been looking at the music, walked over quietly, took her in his arms, patted her on the back, and let her raging tears wet the dragon pattern on her chest.
This brief period of calm was broken by an urgent report one morning. The little official guarding the city gate knelt in front of Tuoba Hong tremblingly, so frightened that he couldn't say a word.
Tuoba Hong's face was pale, and he was furious, "Wang Xuanzhi used a forged customs clearance document to sneak out of the city last night, and you still don't know anything today?!" If you can't guard the city gate, you don't have to guard it, you will all do hard labor for me!" ”
