Chapter 185: The End is also the Beginning
Qing Dai walked out of the Wuji Hall with her head down, Xiao Wu still followed behind in silence, and met Liu Qi who had just met.
"How's my father?" Liu Qi asked when he met.
Qing Dai raised her head and replied, "Aren't you his son?" Why don't you seem to know it? ”
Liu Qi was slightly embarrassed, but he still asked, "Do you know medical skills?" How is my father? ”
He ...... The disease is indeed a bit serious, and it needs to be well recuperated. Qing Dai said euphemistically.
"What?!" Liu Qi looked very nervous, he turned around and was about to walk towards the Wuji Palace, but saw Eunuch Jiang coming over.
"Qi Qi Second Prince, the emperor said, saying that he was a little sleepy today, so he rested first, if the second prince has something, please come back tomorrow." Eunuch Jiang said respectfully.
"The king knows. My father rested. Liu Qi lowered his head in disappointment, turned around and walked back without saying a word.
Qing Dai saw him looking lost, and couldn't help but step forward and ask, "What's wrong with you?" Why don't you go to see your father again? Aren't you worried about him? ”
Liu Qi glanced at Qing Dai, "You don't understand." With that, he strode towards the palace gate.
"Eh......" Qing Dai stopped talking, silently looking at Liu Qi in the distance.
Xiao Wu walked up to Qing Dai and reminded softly: "It's time to go home, Aunt Lan should be in a hurry." ”
Qing Dai nodded lightly and obediently followed Xiao Wu away.
On the same day, Qingdai and Xiao Wu returned to Xinglin and told Shenglan and Shangguan Zhanfeng everything that happened in the palace.
"It seems that the emperor still hasn't been able to let go of the fact that Miss left." Sheng Lan hugged Huan'er and said abruptly.
Shangguan Zhanfeng couldn't help but sigh: "The battle of Huanggu Mountain was tragic, and how many people died among them, even Nie ......"
"Huan'er, go out and find Mama Mei to play with you." Sheng Lan put Huan'er into the ground, and then said: "I believe that Miss Ji is a natural person, and it will be fine, she and Xiao Gongzi are most yearning for the life in the mountains, and they must have traveled to the world." ”
Shangguan Zhanfeng couldn't bear to pierce it, and nodded in agreement.
Qing Dai suddenly stood up and said, "Aunt Lan, can you take the health pill given by the third master?" ”
"Not yet."
Qing Dai immediately offered the tea at hand, "Aunt Lan, take one pill every morning and evening in the future, don't forget it." ”
Sheng Lan smiled and took the tea in Qing Dai's hand, "How can I be so delicate." ”
"In the future, Aunt Lan's body will be handed over to me to recuperate, and tomorrow I will go to the mountains to collect medicine, fifth brother, will you go with me tomorrow?" Qing Dai turned to Xiao Wu and asked.
Xiao Wu was about to answer, but saw the housekeeper in the house walk in and said, "Tell the old lady, there is a son outside the door who asks to see him, and he only says that his surname is Liu." ”
"The son surnamed Liu?" Shangguan Zhanfeng said suspiciously.
"We just returned to the capital not long ago, how can we have friends?" Sheng Lan also wondered.
Qing Dai suddenly stood up and said, "Could it be the son of Liu Qi?" Butler, then invite him to come in and sit down. ”
"Okay, I'll go!" The steward was ordered to step back.
"Liu Qi?" Shangguan Zhanfeng suddenly woke up, "Could it be the second prince?!" ”
As he spoke, Liu Qi slowly walked in.
Everyone looked back, and sure enough, it was the second prince Liu Qi.
"See the second prince!" Shangguan Zhanfeng led everyone to bow down.
Liu Qi flicked his hands and said: "Everyone, please get up, this is not in the palace, there is no need to be polite." ”
"Second Prince Xie!"
Shangguan Zhanfeng helped Sheng Lan to get up.
"Sure enough, it's you, why are you here?" Qing Dai greeted with a smile.
Xiao Wu glanced back at Qingdai and motioned her not to say much.
Liu Qi replied: "I came to ask Miss Qingdai how my father's condition is, and what can be done to treat him as soon as possible?" ”
"The emperor is very sick?" Shangguan Zhanfeng turned around, looked at Qing Dai and asked in surprise.
Qing Dai stepped forward and replied: "That's true, his blood is clogged all over his body, and he is depressed all year round, causing his body to be empty, and he has ...... The disease is not curable. ”
"What?!" Liu Qi took a few steps back in shock, unable to move.
Sheng Lan glanced at Shangguan Zhanfeng, and Shangguan Zhanfeng stepped forward, helped the second prince to take a seat, and patiently comforted: "The prince doesn't have to worry, I believe that the emperor's illness will be cured if it is discovered in time." Qing Dai is also the disciple grandson of the white ugly miracle doctor, and there must be a way to cure the emperor's illness. ”
Qingdai nodded, "Trust me, I will definitely do my best!" I'll go to the mountains early tomorrow morning to collect medicine, and I want it fresh! ”
"I'm going with you! I have to do something for my father, so that I can rest assured! The second prince woke up from his trance and said resolutely.
"I'll go too." Xiao Wu suddenly burst out with a sentence.
Qing Dai said happily: "It's okay now, there are so many people to accompany me!" ”
In the early morning of the second day, Liu Qi arrived outside the Xinglin Gate on time, and went to the neighboring Song Mountain to pick herbs with Qingdai and Xiao Wu.
The three of them chatted all the way up the mountain, but most of them were Qing Dai and Liu Qi chatting eloquently, and Xiao Wu was relatively silent.
Xiao Wu's temperament was born like this, so he didn't feel strange.
On the contrary, he felt that Liu Qi was a little different. From the mouths of his masters and masters, he learned that the imperial nobles have always been bullying and selfish, so he naturally had no good impression of Liu Qi.
However, after getting along for a few hours, he found that Liu Qi was not as he imagined, on the contrary, he was unrestrained, did not pay attention to identity etiquette, had an active mind, was kind-hearted, and never claimed to be a royal family in front of them.
It turned out that Liu Qi's biological mother was not born to the emperor's harem concubine, but a palace maid with a low status.
After giving birth to Liu Qi, his status changed, but he was still only a full-fledged man from the sixth grade.
Although Liu Qi is the second prince, because of the influence of his biological mother's identity, the treatment he received in the palace is not as glorious as that of other princes, but he has been deeply loved by Liu Che'er since he was a child.
Liu Qi has lived in the cruel harem since he was a child, and has tasted all kinds of tastes in life, so he has never been pampered and habitual, and has been self-reliant and self-reliant since he was a child.
Qingdai also likes her new friend very much, from the moment she sees him, she has a sense of déjà vu, I can't say why, but I feel that it is easy to get close to her.
All the way to the peak of Song Mountain, Qingdai did not find the herbs she was looking for.
"What's the name of the herb you're talking about?" Liu Qi asked.
Qing Dai turned around and replied, "The other side of the flower." ”
"The other side of the flower? Unheard. Liu Qi was puzzled.
Qingdai looked down and explained: "The flower on the other side is the symbol of our peach orchard, and I have only seen the carved pattern, but I have not seen the real body of the flower on the other side. ”
"Then how do you know the effect of the flower on the other side?"
"I heard about it from the mouth of the Third Master. When the master was blind, fell off the cliff, and died nine times, he accidentally crashed into the Valley of the Madman, and there was a flower on the other side in the Valley of the Crazy. There is a spring around the flower on the other side, and the spring water has the effect of reviving the dead, and it is precisely because of the spring water that the master can recover his strength. The toxins on the body are also removed. And the reason why the spring water has the effect of resurrecting the dead is precisely because the petals on the other side are soaked in it all year round. Therefore, the other side flower has an extremely important factor in the treatment of the emperor and Aunt Lan. ”
"I see. It's just such a rare medicinal material, can you have it here? Liu Qi then asked.
Qingdai is also not sure, "I don't know, I can only look around, I hope it won't disappoint us." ”
"You said that, but this?" Xiao Wu suddenly pointed to a red and bright flower at the tip of the mountain and said.
Qing Dai looked up and jumped in surprise, "That's it!" We've finally found it! ”
"Where?" Liu Qi also looked excitedly, and without saying a word, he took the initiative to walk to the edge of the cliff.
"Be careful!" Xiao Wu stepped forward to stop, "This mountain road is extremely difficult, let's go, you take care of Qingdai." ”
Without waiting for Liu Qi to answer, Xiao Wu walked first.
Although the road is difficult and dangerous, fortunately, Xiao Wu has a good light skill, but there is also no danger.
"What a skill!" Liu Qi watched in amazement as Xiao Wu quickly shuttled through the rocky dense forest, and let out a burst of exclamations.
After a while, Xiao Wu returned victorious.
Qing Dai happily held the flowers in her arms, "With the flowers on the other side, the emperor and Aunt Lan will be fine!" ”
"Thank you, brother, for sacrificing your life! Liu Qi is grateful! Liu Qi arched his hand to Xiao Wu and said.
Xiao Wu nodded, and silently followed Qing Dai and Liu Qi down the mountain.
On the Song Mountain, there are groups of flowers growing on the other side, he didn't say anything, only took one down the mountain.
The red flowers on the other side swayed in the wind, smiling and watching them go away.
After going down the mountain, Liu Qi had a good temperament and strongly invited Qingdai and Xiaowu to Cao Youfu Wine Store for a drink.
Qing Dai already likes lively places, so she agreed without saying a word.
Xiao Wu didn't want to stay longer, but he couldn't push Liu Qi's enthusiasm, so he had to go with him.
"You and I, the three of us, have similar temperaments, and if we really meet by fate, it seems that it is fate. Come, let's raise a glass together, a lifetime of friendship, and form an alliance! Liu Qi was in high spirits and raised his glass.
Qing Dai also raised her glass and said happily: "Okay, good, so, in the capital, we have another friend!" ”
Xiao Wu still sat calmly on the side, indifferently watching the two of them talking.
"Fifth brother, come together?" Liu Qi turned to look at Xiao Wudao.
Xiao Wu was unmoved, "I don't drink much." ”
Qing Dai couldn't wait to pull him up, "It's okay if you don't drink with me on weekdays, today is a good day, you have to have a drink!" ”
"That's it! Fifth brother, drink this glass of wine, you and I are brothers in an alliance! Gotta drink! Liu Qi said excitedly.
Xiao Wu glanced at Qing Dai and Liu Qi helplessly, so he had to pick up the wine glass and touch the two of them, and drank them slowly.
The three of them chatted and drank until late at night.
As Liu Qi said, raise a glass of wine and form a lifelong friendship.
What kind of entanglements will fall on these three upright and upright young people in the future?
The past is gone, and the future is unknown.
In the dark night, in an unknown deep mountain and dense forest, a clear and quiet ancient tune slowly came out.
No one could see the face of the person who played the flute, but the flute in his hand was so dazzling that no one could ignore it.
The moonlight was shining on the delicate flute, shining with bursts of turquoise glow.
Just take a closer look, and you can see the pattern of the flower carved on the tail of the flute......
