Emperor Songde's sharp eyes stared at Ji Zhongli without blinking, waiting for him to speak.

"Your Majesty," Ji Zhongli said calmly, "It's been so long, and I'm still young at the time, how can I remember it?" ”

Emperor Song Dedi smiled with satisfaction, "Also, you were indeed too young at that time, you should not remember." ”

He glanced at Ji Zhongli again, but still didn't notice anything.

At this time, Ji Zhongli suddenly spoke, "Your Majesty, what's going on with Concubine Hua?" ”

At the mention of Concubine Hua, Emperor Songde's face was a little ugly, "These useless things, it is said that Concubine Hua suddenly can't find it, you say that such a big living person, how can you say that it is gone?" ”

However, Ji Zhongli didn't speak, and his face looked even more ugly than Emperor Songde.

Emperor Song De couldn't help but feel strange, "Aiqing, haven't you always hoped that I would stay away from Concubine Hua? If Concubine Hua really disappeared, shouldn't you be happy for me? ”

"The minister is guilty." Who knew that Ji Zhongli would kneel down all of a sudden.

You must know that although Ji Zhongli is a minister, he has saved Emperor Songde's life many times, because Emperor Songde said that Ji Zhongli can not kneel.

Therefore, at this time, Ji Zhongli suddenly knelt down, which made Emperor Songde even more uneasy.

"Aiqing, if you have something to say, what's going on?" He hurriedly stepped forward to help Ji Zhongli up.

Ji Zhongli didn't stand up, but said a little anxiously, "Your Majesty, you must find Concubine Hua." ”

"What do you mean?" Emperor Song De asked nervously, with some bad premonitions in his heart.

"Your Majesty, if you want to relieve the poison in your body, Concubine Hua Guifei can't go missing, she must be found." Ji Zhongli said affirmatively.

"How so?" Emperor Song De was a little incredulous, "You didn't say that she was also poisonous in her body, why did you say that now?" ”

"Your Majesty, at that time, the ministers didn't know much about this lovesickness, so they had a wrong judgment, and the ministers deserved to die." Ji Zhongli said in a deep voice.

Emperor Songde was a little magical, but he knew in his heart that if there was no Ji Zhongli, then the poison in his body might never be cured.

He had no choice but to wave his hand, "It's okay, Aiqing, get up, Concubine Hua will definitely find it." ”

"What the emperor said is very true, these days, the ministers will also live in the palace to help find the concubine." Ji Zhongli stood up, "Your Majesty, you just took the medicine, let's rest for a while, the minister will go out now to see how the people are looking." ”

"Go, go." After listening to Ji Zhongli's words, Emperor Songde was not in a good mood at this time, so he waved his hand and asked him to leave.

In the side hall of the Qiankun Palace, Chenggong finally got better.

Xiao Xiazi's eyes were red, "Master, how do you feel when you drink some water?" Do you want to find a doctor? ”

Father-in-law Cheng took a sip of water with difficulty, shook his head and said, "What are we, why should we find a doctor." ”

"Your Majesty...... The emperor is too much, the master has served him for decades, and the disappearance of Concubine Hua Guifei has nothing to do with the master, how can he punish the master like this? Xiao Natsuko said while crying.

He is the adopted son of Cheng's father-in-law, and in fact, he has always regarded Cheng's father-in-law as his father.

Cheng's father-in-law also regarded him as a son.

He sighed and touched Xiao Xiazi's head, "Silly boy, what nonsense are you talking about?" The emperor is the master, we are the slaves, the master wants the slave to die, and the slave has to die, this is a matter of course. ”

"But even if it's a dog that I raised, I should have feelings for so many years, how can I be so cruel?" Xiao Natsuko still couldn't accept it.

Gonggong Cheng sighed, "Xiao Xiazi, you can't do this, the master is old, in the future, you will have to serve in front of the emperor, you can't talk nonsense." ”

"Master, don't talk nonsense, you will definitely live a long life." Xiao Xiazi's tears were even more fierce, he really couldn't imagine how he would deal with the increasingly moody Emperor Songde if his master was really gone.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside.

Xiao Xiazi ran to open the door, and saw that it was Ji Zhongli who came, and he hurriedly said respectfully, "Mrs. Ji, why are you here?" ”

"How's your master?" Ji Zhongli asked with concern.

"Master, he's ......," Xiao Xiazi hesitated, "Master is fine." ”

Father-in-law Cheng heard Ji Zhongli's voice inside, so he raised his voice and said, "It's Mrs. Ji who is here, please invite him in." ”

When Xiao Xiazi heard this, he immediately asked Ji Zhongli to enter the side hall.

When Gonggong Cheng saw Ji Zhongli coming, he struggled to sit up.

Ji Zhongli stepped forward and pressed his shoulder, "Father-in-law Cheng doesn't need to be polite." ”

Then, he also helped Cheng's father-in-law touch the pulse, and said to Xiao Xiazi, "It's no big deal, take more rest." ”

Xiao Xiazi was very grateful, "Thank you Mrs. Ji, thank you Mrs. Ji." ”

Ji Zhongli turned to Gonggong Cheng again, "What's going on over there with Concubine Hua?" People really can't find it? ”

Father-in-law Cheng sighed helplessly, "Yes, I've been looking for so long, and there is no news at all, and eighty percent of them are out of the palace." ”

Ji Zhongli frowned, "Have you asked your palace people in Yonghua Palace?" ”

Father-in-law Cheng nodded, "I asked, but no one saw it." ”

"Since no one saw it, maybe they didn't go out." Ji Zhongli said affirmatively.

"But if you haven't left the palace, how can you not find it after looking for so long?" Cheng's father-in-law felt unlikely.

Ji Zhongli thought about it, then turned to Xiao Xiazi and asked, "Can those people find places like dry wells and ponds?" ”

Xiao Xiazi's face suddenly changed greatly, "Mrs. Ji, what do you mean by this?" ”

Father-in-law Cheng had already understood Ji Zhongli's guess, and immediately instructed Xiao Xiazi, "You find a few more people, go to the wells and pools near Yonghua Palace to find them, and you must find them." ”

Xiao Xiazi's face turned pale, and he nodded, "Yes, master, Mrs. Ji, I'll go now." ”

Then he turned and walked away.

Ji Zhongli looked at Gonggong Cheng again, "If Concubine Hua really can't find it, the emperor's illness may not be cured." ”

Father-in-law Cheng was not surprised, he asked tentatively, "If it can't be cured, how long can the emperor last?" ”

He thought that even if he couldn't be cured, the emperor would be able to last at least a year and a half, or even longer, but he didn't want to hear Ji Zhongli say, "Maybe I won't be able to make it back for the prince." ”

In a word, Cheng's father-in-law widened his eyes in shock, "So anxious? ”

Apparently what he said was very problematic and in a hurry? Who's in a hurry? Could it be that the emperor is in a hurry to die?

After finishing speaking, he immediately realized that something was wrong, pulled the corners of his mouth and said, "I mean the emperor's illness is so urgent?" ”

Ji Zhongli nodded, "If you can find Concubine Hua, it's naturally a different matter." ”

Father-in-law Cheng sighed, "I guess I found it, and it was also a corpse." ”

"If the emperor can't hold the crown prince and them back, what are the plans of Mrs. Ji?" He looked at Ji Zhongli very seriously, and added without waiting for Ji Zhongli to answer, "No matter what Taifu Ji wants to do, all the palace people in Qiankun Palace will cooperate with Taifu and obey Taifu's arrangement." ”
