Chapter 213: Heart's Blood
A week later.
"Mu Xuanxin! Mu Xin! ”
Shen Qiyan's voice suddenly sounded from the study.
Then, with her messy hair and a book in her hand, she ran out quickly and went straight to Mu Xin's palace.
This movement caused the surrounding waiters to be stunned, and Su Qin ran out after Shen Qiyan, shouting as he ran, "Your Majesty the Empress!" Slow down, don't fall. ”
However, Shen Qiyan didn't seem to be able to hear these voices, and ran forward with all his strength.
The front foot entered Mu Xuanxin's palace, and before he saw Mu Xuanxin's people, Shen Qiyan shouted loudly, "Mu Xuanxin!" Mu Xin! Where are you? ”
The palace is too big, and Mu Xixin is happy and quiet every day, except for a waiter at the door who informs the visitor, there is no one else.
Shen Qiyan didn't know where Mu Xianxin was for a while, so he could only shout his name while looking for it.
——
Inside the main hall.
Yu Yan and several important ministers were discussing national affairs with Mu Xuanxin.
The area in the corner of Huacheng, the recent drought is serious, there has been no rain for half a year, the flowers have fallen and died, the area is too remote, Rao is Yuyan has already thought of a way, sent some people to govern, sent a lot of materials, but still far from the water can not be dissolved near the fire.
Today, I want Mu Yixin to divinate and see when the drought-stricken area will usher in a better situation.
Mu Xixin was putting up a series of divination arrays, and before he could set them up, he suddenly made a move.
This action frightened Yu Yan and several important ministers.
Yu Yan: "What's wrong with the High Priest?" Is there something wrong with it? ”
Minister: "High Priest, don't scare the old minister. ”
"High Priest, speak quickly, it's too scary."
Mu Xinxin put his middle finger to his lips, "Shhh ”
His ears moved slightly, and Mu Xixin listened carefully for a few seconds before getting up, "Someone is looking for me, I'll go first, you guys wait." ”
Within a few seconds, Yu Yan and several dignitaries also heard the voice outside, "Mu Xin!" Mu Xin! ”
Hearing that someone dared to call Mu Xin's name, the sweat on his forehead was about to come down, and they all looked at each other.
Someone began to be impatient, "Who is this man so bold as to call the high priest by his name!" ”
Everyone in Huacheng had to call Mu Yixin a high priest when they saw him, even the empress was no exception, but now someone dared to call his name so publicly.
Yu Yan saw that another minister was about to speak, but Yu Yan took the first step to speak, "This is Her Majesty the Empress." ”
Several ministers were silent for an instant, and they didn't dare to say anything, silently glad that they didn't speak.
The only minister who opened his mouth trembled in fright, looked at Yu Yan, and wanted to explain something, but Yu Yan smiled, "It's okay, I won't say anything outside, Prime Minister Liu, don't worry." ”
Yu Yan has always been a man of his tongue and a gentle person, and now she assists Shen Qiyan in the government, and the courtiers also trust her.
After receiving Yu Yan's reply, Prime Minister Liu Cheng also breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled, "Thank you Yan Zun, I really didn't know that person was Her Majesty the Empress, if I knew, I would not dare to say this if I had a hundred guts." ”
"It's okay, Her Majesty the Empress is still young, and she has grown up in the company of the High Priest since she was a child, and she is familiar with the High Priest, so she ignores the cumbersome etiquette, and I hope that you will assist Her Majesty the Empress in the future to build the future of the Flower City." Yu Yan spoke gently, but there were a few points in and out of his words, and he was both encouraged.
First: Shen Qiyan and Mu Xinxin have a good relationship, but they are threatened.
Second: Shen Qiyan is young, and he will need the assistance of the minister in the future, and he needs to complement each other, which is a commendation and appreciation for the minister.
Several ministers bowed to Yu Yan one after another, "The ministers will definitely stay with their lives." ”
"Ahh Shen Qiyan's exclamation suddenly came from outside the door.
The crowd looked over.
I could only see Mu Xin's back standing outside the main hall, and what was particularly eye-catching was the pair of jade hands on his shoulders.
Shen Qiyan was in a hurry just now, and when he saw Mu Xianxin, he ran up from the bottom of the stairs, and he reached the last step, and he tripped over.
Fortunately, Mu Xuanxin's eyes were quick and hugged her, and Shen Qiyan's fingers subconsciously grasped Mu Xuanxin.
Mu Xuanxin looked at her with such a big grin, and lowered her head with concern and asked, "Does your foot hurt?" ”
"It's okay, it's not important, I just want to tell you......" Shen Qiyan was about to show the book in his hand to Mu Xuanxin, but he let go of her, squatted down, wrapped his slender fingers around Shen Qiyan's ankle, and pinched it gently, "Does it hurt?" ”
"It doesn't hurt, I'm fine." In order to prove to Mu Xianxin that he didn't knock, he jumped, and then bent down and pulled Mu Xuanxin's arm and dragged him up, "Oh, look at this ancient text." ”
When Shen Qiyan asked Yu Zheng to go to diplomacy, he brought her back some ancient books, and she could get as much as she could.
Huacheng's books have been read by Shen Qiyan for so many years, and he hasn't seen anything about recovering his memory, so he can only ask Yu Zheng to help him find some from the outside.
Shen Qiyan has been soaking in the study these days and flipping through it, and finally turned to some eyebrows today.
She pointed out to Mu Xianxin seriously, "You see, this book was originally an ancient book in the Huacheng Palace, I don't know when it flowed out, Brother Yu Zheng brought it back to me from outside, I saw that it was recorded that the orthodox women of the Yu family had blood in their hearts, which could cure many diseases and detoxify many poisons." ”
"Have you ever heard of that? Can my heart's blood restore my memory? ”
Mu Xixin frowned, and took away the ancient text in Shen Qiyan's hand, "Let's not talk about the authenticity of this ancient text, your blood type is special, if something goes wrong in the process of taking blood, your own life will be gone, and you will restore Sheng Shiyu's memory." ”
"Even if your heart blood can cure and detoxify, but remembering this kind of thing is not a disease or a poison, you dare to try it easily?"
He was a little serious, his face was tense, Shen Qiyan pursed his lips, took back the ancient text a little unwillingly, hung his head and turned it over again, "I can't help it, I think it's true when I see a little information." ”
"But when I was filming a TV drama in Kyoto before, I made a costume drama that was similar to a heart-wrenching drama, and I went directly to check it out of curiosity."
"The so-called blood of the ancients is actually the blood flowing from the aorta in the heart center, that is, ordinary blood, but it has been bizarre by some screenwriters."
"I thought, if it's true, I can cut my arm and give Sheng Shi a try, anyway, it's nothing to cut my arm, I won't die."
Mu Xin's face sank even more, "For this kind of illusory thing, you have to hurt yourself?" You have a special blood type, even if you don't die, it is difficult to stop the bleeding, and the pain is doubled, do you think Sheng Shi is willing to let you do this? ”
Shen Qiyan's eyes widened instantly, and he warned, "You are not allowed to tell Sheng Shiyu!" ”
"If you dare to do this, I dare to say, you see if I dare." Mu Qixin didn't give Shen Qiyan any room to turn around, "When the time comes, I will tell Sheng Shiyu that it is your blood, you see if he will drink it, so that even if you hurt yourself, it will be in vain." ”
Shen Qiyan glared at him angrily, his face full of dissatisfaction, "Mu Xixin, what's the matter with you?" Why have you been putting your high priest on my shelf from time to time since you came back from Kyoto? Don't you really think I'm your sister anymore? ”
"I'm older than you." Mu Xinxin's fluttering words made Shen Qiyan chok, and he couldn't say anything to refute, so he could only argue with his neck, "I don't care, anyway, you have called my sister for so many years, and you have always been my brother in my eyes!" ”
"Now for the sake of your sister, me and your brother-in-law's future good life, you can't be a stumbling block!"
Mu Xixin was silent.
Shen Qiyan was just about to speak, when a gloomy voice came from behind Mu Xuanxin, "Your Majesty the Empress." ”
Shen Qiyan tilted his head, only to see Yu Yan and several ministers in the main hall walking outside, Shen Qiyan could only hold his mind first, and honestly shouted Yu Yan, "Aunt Yan." ”
"Meet Her Majesty." Several ministers saluted Shen Qi one after another.
Shen Qiyan raised his hand, "Well, get up, why are you here?" ”
"We have come to the high priest to divinate when the dry area will see heavy rain." After Yu Yan finished explaining, he looked at the book in Shen Qiyan's hand, "Xia Xia, are you here to find the high priest to discuss any unsolved questions in the book?" ”
Shen Qiyan rolled his eyes, "That's right, but Aunt Yan and all the seniors are well-informed, after all, the high priest and I are young and have little experience, you must know more than us." ”
Taking advantage of the situation, Shen Qiyan first touted it and then asked, "I saw in the book that the blood of a woman with the orthodox bloodline of the Yu family can cure all diseases and cure all kinds of poisons, is this true?" ”
Yu Yan smiled and touched Shen Qiyan's hair dotingly, "Silly girl, these are probably all scribbled, how can there be such a magical thing." ”
Mu Xixin stood beside Shen Qiyan, narrowed his eyes, and said softly as if he had taken the initiative to show weakness, "Hear it, this is fake, I don't want you to hurt yourself for this kind of nonsense." ”
"Okay." Shen Qiyan was a little unwilling, but he had to accept the facts, but his fingers were still a little reluctant to caress the book.
She wasted so much effort to find it, but it turned out to be a fake.
"What is written in this book is indeed bizarre, but the old minister remembers that the old priest used the art of exchanging blood to save Her Royal Highness the eldest princess who was dying. It's just that the old priest blocked the news at that time, and in addition to the Yu family's descendants, I and another deceased old minister knew about it. ”
"But afterwards, the dying eldest princess was alive, and there were some rumors in the palace, and some people didn't keep their mouths shut and leaked the matter, so many people knew about it at that time."
"It's just that so many years have passed since now, and many people probably have forgotten about it."
Prime Minister Qu is an old minister of several dynasties, he is old, and he is now the minister with the highest status in the court, and he is the first among the prime ministers.
The rest of the ministers and Yu Yan all seemed to remember something when they heard this, and showed thoughtful expressions.
Shen Qiyan hadn't heard of this matter at all, so he instantly became interested and asked, "Prime Minister Qu, what do you mean by this blood exchange technique?" How did you change it? ”
Prime Minister Qu sighed, "This method is also cruel, but it was also a coincidence at that time, so that the eldest princess could be saved." ”
Many years ago, Huacheng was not peaceful, and the dark tide was turbulent.
Because of the departure of the empress Yu Yan, although Yu Yan was in charge, Yu Yan did not come back for too long, and the foreign countries were ready to move, and began to investigate in many places, and finally found an opportunity to prepare to attack Yu Yan.
At that time, Huacheng Yuyan was equivalent to the empress, as long as Yuyan fell, the entire Huacheng would be leaderless.
A bowl of huge poisonous poison was placed in a soup bowl and brought in by the waiter, but in the end, it was not drunk by Yu Yan.
Instead, he was drunk by Zhang Dandan.
Because Zhang Dandan followed Yu Yan every day to help deal with official business, Zhang Dandan, who happened to have a cough that day, was unwell and unwell, so Yu Yan kindly gave Zhang Dandan the decoction, but unexpectedly harmed Zhang Dandan.
Zhang Dandan did not have a quick seizure after taking the drug, but collapsed in the dead of night, and was found by her personal maid early the next morning.
Many doctors flocked to him, and Zhang Dandan also drank a lot of medicine, but they couldn't be cured.
Zhang Dandan's mother was pregnant at the time, but not yet nine months old, because of this incident, she was stimulated to give birth to a baby boy early.
I don't know if it was born prematurely or something went wrong during pregnancy, the baby boy was dying when he was born, and he could only be hung by decoction every day, but despite this, the doctor still diagnosed that he would not live for half a month.
Zhang Dandan's mother cried until she fainted.
When he woke up, he saw the old priest.
The old priest said that there was a way to exchange blood, which could exchange the blood on the baby boy for Zhang Dandan, but the blood of the baby boy needed to be drained, and the baby boy would definitely die, but because the old priest was also trying this method for the first time, he could not guarantee that Zhang Dandan would survive.
The old priest gave the decision to Zhang Dandan's mother.
As a mother, although she watched Zhang Dandan cough up blood every day, watched her son live on decoction every day, and knew that both children were in pain, she still couldn't make up her mind to send her son to death with her own hands.
Even though he knew that his son would not live for half a month, it was still difficult to make a decision.
She hesitated for a week and a half, Zhang Dandan was almost withered, and was rescued after multiple cardiac arrests, and the doctor said that if there was a next time, it would be difficult for her to be rescued again, and her body could not bear it.
The baby's condition also deteriorated, and Zhang Dandan's mother endured the pain and asked the old priest to carry out the blood exchange technique.
Fortunately, Zhang Dandan was rescued later, but the baby boy left forever.
Since then, Zhang Dandan's mother has been immersed in pain every day, and her wails and cries are often heard in the hospital.
However, Zhang Dandan turned a deaf ear to his mother's pain, and was a little disdainful, thinking that his mother's attention to her son was higher than herself, "He is just a baby boy, even if he is alive, what can he do!" ”
"You cry like this every day, how can I still read! How else can I behave in front of the empress! ”
Zhang Dandan's mother realized at that moment what she had taught her daughter, even her brother saved her life and died, she could be so indifferent.
Since then, Zhang Dandan's mother suddenly felt that there was nothing left in Huacheng that she had left behind, but she just held her son's ashes away from the sad place of Huacheng, and lived a pure life alone in a safe corner.
