The breeze is coming, and the water is not rippling.
"Just left?"
Looking at the endless thousand rivers, Mo Chenyan couldn't help but murmur.
The black bear on the side tilted its head to look at him, "Uh...... Your Highness, you and the second prince ......"
"There is nothing between us. With that, Mo Chenyan turned around and retreated to the deck. But after taking two steps, I couldn't help but glance back at the shadow of the North Customs that was almost invisible, shrouded in mist.
"Your Highness......"
"That's it. Mo Chenyan sighed and walked into the cabin ruthlessly.
-----
"Emperor. ”
Pei Du put the basin in his hand on the basin rack and walked towards the emperor.
"Hmm. Let's get out. ”
The emperor took the yellow scarf in his hand, but stopped looking at him and waved his handkerchief.
Pei Du saluted, and couldn't help but look at the black and cyan frenzy on the bed covered by ice cubes, and then retreated to the door and stood with the yuan.
Because he was afraid that the body of the madman would rot, the emperor froze him.
"Boom la la ......"
The emperor wrung out the handkerchief, and with a wave of his left hand, the ice on the madman's body immediately turned into ice water and flowed down the bed.
"Wounded. ”
The emperor's expression did not look like he was looking at a dead man at all, and his cold voice carried infinite tenderness.
He lifted the maniac's stiff, cold hand and wiped it with a handkerchief.
This water is mixed with a corpse-preserving potion concocted by Donggu. The emperor wiped him every two days.
"Wait a few more days and you'll wake up...... At that time, I will accompany you to Dongshan to see the maple forest. The emperor blinked wistfully and untied his madman's clothes.
Despite watching it many times, the emperor couldn't help but redden.
It was a lively and crazy maniac, but now how did it become like this......
"It's not good to be lonely that day, how can I not come to see you? Let the bad guys have a chance......
The Emperor waved his handkerchief again, and when he returned, he continued to say to a "dead man" what he had repeated many times in the past few days.
Pei Du and Yuan Yuan outside the door glanced at each other and lowered their heads silently.
Because this matter cannot be known to the outside world, it is not possible to send someone to investigate the cause of death of the madman in an explicit manner. In the past few days, they have visited various palaces openly and secretly, repeatedly checking the information of various concubines and palace attendants, but they have not found anything abnormal.
Because except for the ten concubines, the least of the other people in the palace have been staying for three years. If you want to kill maniacs, they will do it a long time ago.
But it can't be said that the new concubine who entered the palace was killed, right?
They are all people with wealth, background, and integrity. Most importantly, they have no motives!
If you want to say that you are jealous, you have only been in the palace for two days, who knows who will be favored? What's more, the emperor was in the Linxian Palace for two days, and if he wants to kill Wen Concubine, he should also kill Concubine Wen, right?
They were also very emaciated. It's good to be crazy about them, and now in this situation, they all want to do something, but unfortunately they can't do it.
"Let's go, let's go to the Internal Affairs Office to see the life history of the palace attendants. Yuan yawned, but still said with a strong spirit.
"It's fine. ”
-----
"Eh, how to deal with this Lin Jide's death?"
Bai Shunyu touched his chin and looked at the file in front of him with a headache.
Tong Ying glanced at him and said meticulously: "In this matter, the night master and the injured adult are both suspicious." If they are to be investigated, they should all be put in custody for interrogation. ”
"I don't know!" Bai Shunyu pouted. He is a person who is almost fifty, and he has no way to deal with this tenacious Tong Ying - too upright!
Could he have been imprisoned for this innocent minister? Didn't the emperor personally come and release him before he had seen him a few times that day? Not to mention the imprisonment these days, he couldn't even see others, and he couldn't even ask about the situation -- the harmless palace was so tightly guarded that not even a fly could fly in.
As soon as he entered Youlan Palace, Lin Huande sent the people he sent away. said that their little master said that there was no harm in this matter, and the minister did not come forward, and he would not say a word.
If you can't afford to provoke either side, how can you investigate the case?
"So I can't help it. Tong Yingcai said seriously.
Bai Shunyu half-lowered his eyelids and stared at him coldly.
"Hey, are you still talking?
Sima Ju walked in and looked at the bookshelf where the ledger was kept.
"Hey, here......" He walked around Bai Shunyu's chair, squeezed behind Bai Shunyu on tiptoe, put the account book on the shelf, and said calmly: "I have already asked someone to make the account book, you can take a look when you have time." ”
"Hmm. ”
Bai Shunyu supported his head with one hand and looked at the sunset outside speechlessly.
"Oh, isn't it just that a palace attendant is dead, why are there so many things?" Sima Tang put one hand on his shoulder and smiled.
Bai Shunyu pushed his hand away, "You don't know that Lin Jide is Concubine Lan's wife." His temperament, if I put Lin Jide's case to a hasty conclusion, he will have to fight with me. ”
"Alas, Lan Concubine, Lan Concubine. After Sima Tang reluctantly bit the name twice, he looked at Tong Yingcai, "Tong Gongzheng has any good suggestions?"
"Hmph. Bai Shunyu deliberately sneered, "I won't worry if he has any good suggestions." ”
Tong Yingcai didn't react, he knew that Bai Shunyu was just complaining.
Sima Tang saw the two of them each with thoughts, and couldn't help but start thinking about what the solution was.
As Bai Shunyu said, Lin Jide is the marriage companion of Concubine Lan and has been serving by the side since he was a child. Although he has a brutal temperament, it does not mean that he is a cold-blooded person. There must be such feelings.
Now that Lin Jide died in vain, he will not easily treat this incident as if it did not happen.
But he wanted to investigate, and there were two people at the scene, he and the injured adult, and they both claimed that they had amnesia. Where does this lead them to start?
The three of them were thinking about it, when the great imperial physician Donggu came in, poured himself a glass of water, took a book from the shelf and sat aside, and asked casually, "Hey, what are you all sitting here? Don't you have to worry about the harem?"
As soon as Sima Tang heard this, he walked towards Donggu. He wasn't specifically in charge of this in the first place, so he didn't have to work hard if he couldn't come up with an answer.
poured himself a glass of water, sat at Donggu's table, shook his head and said, "Besides, I thought that a new concubine was coming, and the harem should be lively, who would have thought that it would be even more deserted than before." ”
"Really, old fellow, I didn't come before, I don't know. Isn't it good now?" Donggu took a sip of tea and said with a smile.
"You stinky boy. Here, show me the pulse. Sima Tang glanced at him with disgust and stretched out his wrist.
Donggu frowned and looked at him, "Are you sure you want to touch me directly?" ”
"Oh, my sons are two years older than you! Sima Tang patted him on the skull and stretched out his hand again.
Donggu grinned, "I'm kidding you." As he spoke, he took out a silk handkerchief from his bosom, "But ah, there is still a number of courtesies." ”
As he spoke, he put the square handkerchief on Sima Tang's wrist and felt the pulse carefully.
"The stinky boy still has a bit of measure. ”
"That's nature. When we study medicine, we pay the most attention to the degree of getting along with patients. ”
"Hey, you're still on your face!"
"You two!" Bai Shunyu glared, "Don't talk if you don't help!"
"Huh?" Donggu glanced at Bai Shunyu, who had always been good-natured, and couldn't help but ask Sima Cheng in a low voice, "What's the matter? Tong Gong is making him angry again?" or Bai Shanggong?"
At the mention of Bai Ye in Bai Shang Palace, Donggu himself couldn't help but snicker. He always felt that Bai Ye and Tong Ying were the two strange flowers among the harem officials - one was stupid and the other was stupid.
"It's not. Lin Jide, you know, right?"
"Lin Jide?" Donggu blinked, "The one who is waiting by the side of the little lord of the night?"
"Hmm. That's him. ”
"Isn't it dead?" Donggu recalled the gossip he had heard these days.
"yes. That's what they're dealing with. ”
"The murderer hasn't been found yet?"
Donggu frowned. He instinctively linked the case to the mad death. Could it be that person originally wanted to kill the uninjured minister, but killed Lin Jide by mistake?
"If you find it, you won't have to worry about it. ”
“......”
Although Donggu had a lot of thoughts in his heart, he couldn't say a word about the death of the madman, so he was silent.
Sima Tang thought he was in the pulse, so he didn't say anything.
"Hey, that's right. How's the illness of the injured adult?"
Bai Shunyu thought for a while, but there was really nothing he could do. Packing up the file, he suddenly remembered the injury that had been sick, and looked up and asked Donggu.
Donggu's left hand holding the book trembled imperceptibly, raised his eyes and smiled at Bai Shunyu, "A little wind and cold, it's nothing, it will be fine after a while." ”
"Really?" Bai Shunyu looked at him suspiciously.
Sima Tang was also suspicious, and asked: "It's been a few days, with your medical skills, a little wind and cold have been used for so long, why will it take a while......?"
Sima Tang specially bit the word "small", wanting to make fun of Donggu.
Seeing that Donggu didn't argue, he suddenly became melancholy, and took a long breath, "Alas, it's not." I don't know what's wrong with hurting adults, it's not good for a long time...... I suspect that the emperor drank the medicine that was sent to me every day. ”
"Oh?
All three looked at Donggu suspiciously. But because this is so outrageous, they vaguely feel that it may be true.
Donggu shook his head, "I'm not sure either. It's just that the day before yesterday, when I went to the pulse, I brought the medicine with me, and I asked the injured adults to drink it, but the emperor said to let it cool down before drinking it. ”
"What's going on?" said Sima Tang, who was more familiar with Donggu, so he quipped.
"Listen to me and then interject!" Donggu glared at him, and then continued to put on a look that seemed to be immersed in memories, and said: "I thought about it, the effect of cold is not good, after all, it is affected by the cold air and the wind cold, how can I drink cold." And I haven't recovered from a minor illness for so long, and I can't save face when I say it. So I persuaded him to drink. ”
But the emperor didn't agree. The injured adults didn't help me speak, so I had to put down the medicine and leave by myself. But I see that they keep shirking like this, so I wonder why. I deliberately walked very slowly, listening to the movement in the house. I didn't expect it to be so boring!"
