"You're all waiting up there, go down alone." Pei Xuanling followed the wooden ladder and walked down the cellar quickly.

During this time, the man held the wooden ladder with both hands, but his eyes were staring directly at the woman on the bed.

When there were still a few steps left in the wooden ladder, he saw the blood on the corner of the woman's mouth and on the bed, and he didn't care about the injury on his foot, so he jumped down and quickly lifted his foot to the side of the bed.

"Poetry... Shishi, I'm here to take you home......" Even though Pei Xuanling was very eager to wake up the woman, he couldn't bear to make a loud noise to her, so he just called the woman a few times.

And, he grabbed the woman's arm and shook it gently.

But the woman still lay quietly on the bed, not responding at all.

Suddenly, Pei Xuanling's heart tugged.

Probed the woman's snort, fortunately, there was still breath, but the breath was relatively weak.

He was a little strange when he moved the stone cover so much, but the woman was lying quietly on the bed.

Now that he saw the blood on the corner of the woman's mouth and on the bed, he probably understood what was going on, and it was probably the same old mistake again.

So, he wrapped the woman in a quilt, and then asked the soldiers waiting above him to throw a twist rope down.

After carefully tying the woman with the brocade quilt, the soldiers above were ready to pull Jiang Shishi up.

Obviously, the twist rope was thick and strong, Pei Xuanling was still not at ease, he stepped on the wooden ladder to climb up, and at the same time sandwiched the woman between him and the wooden ladder.

After escorting her to the cellar, Pei Xuanling gently placed the woman on the ground and shouted at the soldiers in the crowd, "Who among you is a military doctor?" Come over and take the pulse of Concubine Jiang! ”

It was at this time that the soldiers realized that the woman under the cellar was Concubine Jiang.

I have long heard that this is deeply favored by the prince, and it seems that the rumors are true......

After a while, the leader of the general led a military doctor to the prince, "Your Highness, this is not only a soldier in our camp, but also one of the best military doctors in the camp, let him check Concubine Jiang's pulse." ”

"Hmm." Pei Xuanling nodded, it was accurate.

Soon, the military doctor squatted down beside Jiang Shishi and took Jiang Shishi's pulse.

When checking the pulse, the military doctor's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and finally even a face wrinkled.

After a long time, the military doctor apologized and said uncertainly: "Your Highness, Concubine Jiang's pulse is a little strange, presumably because the oxygen under the cellar is not enough, which caused Concubine Jiang to vomit blood and fall into a coma......"

"......" This cellar was specially dug by Pei Xuanling, and after digging it at that time, he experimented with candles and cats.

The minions at the bottom light candles in the cellar, and the candles will not be extinguished, and the cats will be able to survive in the cellar for several days, which proves that there is enough oxygen under the cellar.

However, Pei Xuanling did not say this to the military doctor.

It seemed that the woman, as he had guessed, was an old man.

It's just that her body seems to be exceptionally cold when she is unconscious this time?

Thinking of this, Pei Xuanling wrapped the brocade quilt tightly for the woman, and asked the military doctor lightly, "Then can you diagnose why her body is so cold?" ”

"......" The military doctor actually couldn't say why, but since the prince asked, he made up a reason at random, "I see that there is blood on the corners of Concubine Jiang's mouth, clothes, and quilt, it is estimated that Concubine Jiang has lost too much blood, which caused her body temperature to drop and her body is cold." ”

Rao is that he has been practicing medicine in the army for many years, and he can't tell what is wrong with Concubine Jiang's pulse.

Because, Concubine Jiang's pulse is normal, this is simply too evil!

But Concubine Jiang was in a coma and vomited blood, and her whole body was cold, so it was impossible for him to say that it was okay.

"......" In the past, Pei Xuanling didn't let the doctor diagnose Jiang Shishi's pulse, as soon as he heard the words of the military doctor, he knew that no matter how much he asked, it would be in vain, and he had to carry the woman down the mountain on his back.

When he arrived at the bottom of the mountain, Pei Xuanling took the woman back to the palace in a carriage.

Back in the palace, Pei Xuanling took the woman back to Shiyue Pavilion and instructed the servants of Shiyue Pavilion to boil the prescription for Qingdai for the woman, and then she had to go to worship in front of the spirit of Emperor Daxing.

In this Dongliang country, which pays attention to filial piety, this is a great rule!

In the following days, Pei Xuanling first ascended the throne before the spirit and announced the true edict to the world.

The Hanlin Yuan then transcribed the edict and sent it to all parts of the country, as well as to the feudal domains and neighboring countries.

After the enthronement ceremony, it is equivalent to completing the transfer of power and can perform the duties of the emperor.

But in a strict sense, he can only be regarded as the acting emperor, and he has to go through the enthronement ceremony before he is the real new emperor!

However, after Lingqian ascended the throne, he was already the new ruler of the Eastern Liang Kingdom.

The first thing Pei Xuanling did when he ascended the throne was to deal with the government with injuries, preside over the funeral of Emperor Daxing, and personally mourn and worship in the morning, noon and evening every day.

Then there is the canonization of the queen mother, the imperial concubine, and the women of the former emperor are all arranged in place.

As for the women of the East Palace, they have to wait for him to ascend the throne before they can be canonized.

Then there are a bunch of stalls waiting for him to clean up, those officials who are promoted to the top of the ranks, those who are knighted are promoted, those who are demoted are demoted, those who are suppressed are suppressed, those who are exiled are exiled, those who are given death are given death, and those who are raided are confiscated from their homes......

Among them, the seventh prince, the sixth prince, the eleventh prince, King Kang and others played an important role in this competition for the crown prince, and they were all named princes.

When Jiang Chongjin followed Pei Xuanling on the expedition, he helped the army to divinate celestial phenomena and good fortune, and was promoted to Si Tianti.

This official position is the largest official of the Si Tianjian, and the entire Si Tianjian is under his control.

In addition to being promoted, Jiang Chongjin also received the title of the founding county duke of Zhengerpin.

There is also Jiang Yongjie, who was promoted to the general of Guide and the title of Marquis of Sanpin Kaiguo County......

On this night, Pei Xuanling was sitting in the study and busy processing official documents, and Huang Dechang came in to ask questions.

"Your Majesty, that King Huai is hiding in a cave in the capital, and was found by our people, I don't know what you plan to do with him?"

"......" Thinking of the cruel words put down by King Huai during the decisive battle that day, Pei Xuanling's tone was cold, "Directly let people take down his head, plow his back, cut off his limbs, and hang it on the city gate to show the public!" ”

"Yes." Huang Dechang should go.

Who let King Huai say cruel words that day to deal with the emperor like this.

If the emperor hadn't won the battle, it would have been the emperor who was hanging on the city gate at this moment.

Huang Dechang: "In addition, Concubine Ruan sent someone to say it today, saying that Concubine Su was talking crazy in the dormitory all day, and Concubine Jiang had been unconscious, so it was difficult for her to make decisions alone......"

Pei Xuanling has just returned to Beijing to take the throne, and he has been very busy these days.

Except for Shiyue Pavilion, he didn't stop anywhere else in the backyard at all.

If it weren't for Huang Dechang's reminder, he would have almost forgotten the woman Concubine Su.

Pei Xuanling: "You took someone to the Su family's dormitory, gave her a glass of poisoned wine, and claimed to the public that she was crazy to death after the incident." ”

He didn't touch any of the harem concubines, so he clearly knew that the Su family did not abide by women's morals.

Such a woman naturally can't be kept.

Huang Dechang also knew that Concubine Su was indecent, just the fact that Concubine Su and the guards had fornicated and brought shame on the royal family and the emperor was enough for Concubine Su to die several times.

Pei Xuanling: "By the way, what's going on over there in Shiyue Pavilion?" ”

"Chun Xing fed Concubine Jiang with medicine on time every day, but Concubine Jiang was still unconscious." Huang Dechang is most concerned about the situation at the end of Shiyue Pavilion these days.

Because he knew that that was the emperor's favorite favorite, no matter how busy the emperor was, he would take the time to visit Concubine Jiang in Shiyue Pavilion, and ask him about the situation in Shiyue Pavilion every day.

Pei Xuanling: "Did she cough up blood again?" Or is it so painful that you are half unconscious? ”

Huang Dechang shook his head, "I didn't have ......"

......After asking Jiang Shishi about the situation, Pei Xuanling continued to bow his head and review the folds.

He planned to finish the excerpt and go to Shiyue Pavilion to see her.

**

The coffin of Emperor Daxing has been parked in Longyuan Hall for twenty-seven days.

Even, due to the delay of King Mu's party, it has exceeded 27 days.

Before the official burial, the coffin of Emperor Daxing had to be parked in the royal funeral palace.

Wait for the imperial mausoleum to be repaired, and then choose an "auspicious day" to be buried after the expiration of the moratorium period.

Therefore, Pei Xuanling had to handle the removal of the coffin of the Daxing Emperor.

The country can't be without a monarch for a day, after moving the coffin of Emperor Daxing to the royal funeral palace, the Ministry of Rites selected an auspicious day for Pei Xuanling to ascend the throne, on the eighth day of the fifth month.

By the sixth day of the fifth month, Jiang Shishi had not woken up.

It was at this time that Pei Xuanling discovered that something was wrong.

In the early morning of the sixth day of the fifth lunar month, Pei Xuanling thought of Jiang Shishi from Shiyue Pavilion as soon as he got up.

After some washing, he didn't even have time to eat breakfast, so he went directly to Shiyue Pavilion.

Once there, he went straight to the inner room.

When I lifted my foot to the bed, I saw the woman lying quietly on the bed.

Pei Xuanling sat down on the edge of the bed, reached out and touched the woman's face, the tentacles were cold.

But now it's hot May, and the woman is covered with a thick brocade quilt, so there is no reason why it can be so cold.

And, although she was cold when he found her in the cellar, it seems even colder now.

That cold touch didn't give him the body temperature that a living person should have, but like the body temperature of a dead person.

When he was fighting on the battlefield, when he was cleaning up the bodies of his subordinates, he touched the body temperature of a dead person, and the lifeless cold touch was the same as the woman in front of him.

Pei Xuanling raised his hand, and his fingertips stayed on the woman's nose.

I obviously wanted to probe the woman's snort, but I didn't dare.

It was a long time before he put his fingertips on the tip of the woman's nose.

Feeling the faint breath, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Have you noticed that your master's body temperature is colder than when he returned to the palace?" Pei Xuanling tilted his head slightly and asked Chunxing, who was standing aside.

"Yes, the little master's body is getting cooler and cooler day by day." Chun Xing nodded again and again, "Not only that, but I drink less and less medicine every day, at first, the little master can barely pour in most of the bowl of medicine, and then he can only pour in a small half bowl of medicine, but in the past few days, he can only pour a few mouthfuls, and the rest all flow out of the corners of his mouth......"

Hearing this, Pei Xuanling felt more and more that something was wrong.

Before that, he invited the imperial doctor to treat the woman, and those imperial doctors and imperial doctors were the same as before, and they couldn't be famous.

Therefore, he thought that she was in the same condition as before, and that she would wake up after a few days in a coma.

But now that I think about it, this time it seems that everything is different from before.

She had never been in a coma for more than ten days before, but this time she was in a coma for ten days.

Moreover, once she was in a coma for a long time, she would be in a semi-comatose state due to extreme pain.

This time she was in a coma for the longest time, and it was supposed to be more painful than before, but she was not in pain enough to be half-awake to talk nonsense.

And when she was unconscious before, her body would not be cold, but this time it was terrifyingly cold.

Thinking of this, Pei Xuanling immediately ordered: "Huang Dechang, you go out of the palace and announce Jiang Chongjin and Qingdai into the palace!" ”

"Yes, the slave will go out of the palace now." Huang Dechang immediately went out with the dust.

About an hour later, Qing Dai and Jiang Chongjin rushed to Shiyue Pavilion one after another.

The first to rush to Shiyue Pavilion was Qing Dai, and the eleventh master who entered the palace with her.

As soon as the two entered the inner room of Shiyue Pavilion, they knelt down towards Pei Xuanling.

Pei Xuanling walked up to the eleventh master and helped the eleventh master up, "I heard that the sixth child said that Qingdai has solved the poison in your body, have you been better recently?" ”

"Brother Xie Huang cares, my body has improved a lot." The eleventh master glanced at the bed in the screen, "Brother Huang invited Qing Dai into the palace this time, but let her see Concubine Jiang?" ”

Pei Xuanling nodded "um".

"......" The eleventh master turned his head and glanced at Qing Dai, who sat on the edge of the bed and began to diagnose Jiang Shishi's pulse.

As for the eleventh master and Pei Xuanling, they sat on the circle chair outside the screen and waited for the diagnosis.

After a while, Qing Dai came to Pei Xuanling with a solemn expression, "Your Majesty, Concubine Jiang's situation is as strange as before, except for excessive blood loss and weak body, there is no major problem with the pulse. ”

Pei Xuanling also felt that Jiang Shishi was the same as before, and now Qingdai also said so, he asked lightly: "In this way, is she the same as before, is her life not in danger?" ”

"......" Qingdai was silent for a few breaths, then shook her head, and said a little sadly: "Although her condition is similar to before, her body temperature is too cold, her breath is weak, and her pupils are dilated... These... are all harbingers of the end of life......"

In the end, Qing Dai's voice was even more swallowing.

In her opinion, Concubine Jiang is a very good person and a good friend of hers.

How can such a good woman be as thin as a flower?

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the inner room suddenly became heavy.

Pei Xuanling's thin lips were pursed, and his heart was throbbing in his throat because of Qing Dai's words, and his chest throbbed for a while.

After being silent for a long time, he asked Qing Dai: "With your medical skills, can you cure her?" ”

Qing Dai shook her head helplessly, "Although my medical skills are acceptable, I can't cure any disease, the key is that Concubine Jiang's condition can't find a cause, and I can't prescribe the right medicine." ”

"Moreover, with Concubine Jiang's current situation, she will not live for three days at most, so I can only prescribe a prescription to hang her life and help her extend her life for three days......"

"Your Majesty, Lord Jiang is here......" At this moment, Xiao Quanzi came in to report.

So, Pei Xuanling dismissed the eleventh master and Qingdai, and asked Jiang Chongjin to be declared into the inner room.

As soon as the eleventh master and Qingdai left the inner room with their front feet, Jiang Chongjin entered the inner room with their back feet.

As soon as he entered the inner room, he saw that the emperor, who had always been calm and calm, frowned, as if he was troubled by something.

It's strange, when he fought in the Western Xia Kingdom, he had never seen the emperor so troubled even if he suffered defeat, or when he encountered something difficult.

"Minister... See the Emperor. Jiang Chongjin lifted the corners of his robe and knelt down.

However, he waited for a long time, but did not wait for any response.

I couldn't help but look up, and saw that the emperor was still sitting and looking like he was just now.

"Your Majesty, Lord Jiang is here." It was Huang Dechang on the side who reminded him in a whisper, and Pei Xuanling came back to his senses and said to Jiang Chongjin: "You are here......"

As he spoke, the man waved his hand at Jiang Chongjin and motioned for Jiang Chongjin to get up.

Jiang Chongjin: "I don't know why the emperor summoned Weichen?" ”

"Shishi has been in a coma for ten days, and I want you to do the math for her." Pei Xuanling pointed to the woman on the bed.

"What? Sister Shi'er has been in a coma for ten days?! For a while, Jiang Chongjin's expression became as solemn as Pei Xuanling, "In this case, you should ask her for an imperial doctor......

"Military doctors, imperial doctors, imperial doctors, I have all been invited." Pei Xuanling pointed outside, "There is also Qingdai next to Eleven who has just left here, presumably you have seen her too." ”

Jiang Chongjin: "Then what do they say?" ”

"Shishi's illness is so strange that they can't see the reason." Pei Xuanling frowned, "Even a miracle doctor like Qingdai, I can't see the reason, I just say... It's just that Shishi doesn't have a few days to live, so I want you to calculate it for her......"

Hearing this, Jiang Chongjin couldn't care about anything else, and immediately called the servants and subordinates who were waiting outside and asked them to bring in the divination guys.

Every time the emperor summoned him, he mostly discussed political affairs, or asked him to divinate good fortune and bad fortune.

Therefore, before coming here today, he thought that the emperor would let him divinate the affairs of the court, so he specially brought the tools of divination.

I never thought that it was for him to divinate Sister Shi's life.

After about a cup of tea, Pei Xuanling dismissed the irrelevant people in the inner room, and finally only the two of them sat at the semi-circular table in the inner room.

On the table, there were gossip diagrams, turtle shells, stones and other tools......

Jiang Chongjin first calculated according to Jiang Shishi's birthday, and then shook his head solemnly.

"What's the math?" Pei Xuanling saw that Jiang Chongjin's expression was wrong, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Alas... To tell the truth, I have told Sister Shi'er many times, and each time I calculated that she had already passed away, and this time it was the same. Jiang Chongjin shook his head helplessly.

"Long gone?" Pei Xuanling's eyes turned slightly, "When did you calculate the time of death?" ”

"It was the year she suffered from anorexia......"

Pei Xuanling's pupils were shocked, and then he asked in disappointment: "In this way, wouldn't you be able to calculate her current yang longevity?" ”

"It's not like it's all out of the question." Jiang Chongjin put his hand on the turtle shell on the table, "Fortune telling is not good, the minister can only try divination......

So, Jiang Chongjin turned to divination with turtle shells and stones.

After a while, Jiang Chongjin looked at the turtle shells and stones on the table, his expression became more solemn, and there was a sad look in the solemnity.

This time, without waiting for Pei Xuanling to ask him, he said with a heavy heart: "Your Majesty, it seems that Miss Qingdai's diagnosis is correct, according to the minister's divination, Sister Shi does only have a few days to live......"

"......" Even Jiang Chongjin said this, Pei Xuanling's heart sank, "Then can you figure out what caused her?" ”

"......" was silent for a long time, and then Jiang Chongjin said: "If I guess correctly, Sister Shi should not be from this world." ”

"Not from this world?"

Jiang Chongjin nodded "um", "Actually... I noticed the change in her a long time ago, she became much better than before, but I never wanted to recognize this fact......"

"What about you, have you noticed how she is different from before, or when has she changed?"

He was worried that the emperor would think that Sister Shi was a demon girl because of this, so he never mentioned this matter to the emperor.

Now, after making sure that the emperor's feelings for Sister Shi will not change because of this, he dares to tell the truth to the emperor.

Hearing Jiang Chongjin say this, Pei Xuanling twisted his eyebrows and thought for a while before saying, "When she first entered the palace, her body was quite weak, and later she suffered from anorexia, so I didn't pay much attention to her, if I have to talk about changes, I should start from the twenty-eighth year of Jianyuan......

Pei Xuanling paused slightly, recalling the past scene in his mind.

"At the beginning of the twenty-eighth year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, when I returned to the East Palace after winning the battle, she changed greatly, from skinny to the roundest concubine in the East Palace.

"Since then, I have found that her temperament has also changed, in the past, she was the same as those concubines in the East Palace, changing her ways to invite or compete for favor, and later although she will also compete for favor, but it is more like doing superficial work, making her look similar to the concubines of the East Palace."

"Moreover, she has become extremely gluttonous, as a woman, she eats more than me and those who practice martial arts......"

"Not only that, but I also found out that she always unintentionally helped me avoid trouble, and every time after helping me avoid trouble, she would fall into a coma or cough up blood, this time, I thought she would wake up after a few days of coma, but who knew that she had been unconscious all the time......"

“......”

Pei Xuanling said many changes in Jiang Shishi one after another, and Jiang Chongjin listened to them.

"You said that she had already changed when you returned to the palace from the war, so she should have changed before that." Jiang Chongjin thought for a while, "If Chen is not mistaken, it should be that she changed her core when she was seriously ill with anorexia." ”

Pei Xuanling raised his eyebrows: "Changed the core?" ”

Jiang Chongjin: "I once heard my grandfather say that when he was alive, he met a strange man, his situation was similar to that of Sister Shi'er, the man often fainted and vomited blood because he was bizarre, and the doctor said it was okay at first, and their family didn't take it seriously. ”

"Until later, when the man vomited blood again and fainted, he never woke up, and his family searched for local famous doctors, and those doctors couldn't say anything famous, only said that they should deal with the aftermath, so their family found my grandfather and wanted to save him through occult arts."

"It turned out that the man was not sick at all." Jiang Chongjin recalled what his grandfather had said, "When my grandfather told him fortunes, he found that he had reached the end of his life a few years ago, and my grandfather suspected that he had come from another world, and then when he was divining, he found that he only had a few days to live......

"That's right, Shishi's situation is the same as his." It turned out that it was not a disease, no wonder the imperial doctor and Qingdai couldn't diagnose the cause, Pei Xuanling couldn't wait to ask: "What happened to that man, your grandfather saved him?" ”
