Volume 2 The Imperial City Chapter 51 Farewell
West City Gate.
Early in the morning, the people who were urged by Xiao Yu'er had already packed up and waited at the door, waiting for the city gate to open.
"Isn't it too early?" Wei Changming rubbed his eyes and yawned.
"The door hasn't even opened."
"You know what!" Xiao Yu'er retorted, "The plan of the day lies in the morning. ”
"Then you didn't open the door, what's the use of waiting."
"You don't care!"
Just when the two of them were arguing.
"Third prince, why are you here?" Xuan Yi looked into the city.
"What, I'm not welcome?"
The third prince came from a distance with a smile, with a few guards behind him.
"It's rare to have like-minded friends, and it should be given you a ride."
Everyone saluted the three princes.
The third prince returned the salute, and then took a paper deed from the guard.
"That's right, Miss Cui."
The third prince walked to the carriage, and Cui Tingyun lifted the curtain.
"This is our contract for the purchase of spices, which is stamped with the seal of our royal family, and please keep it safe, it is a certificate for future shipments."
"I thank the three princes here for the people of our village."
"You got it based on the quality of the spices, so why thank me."
The third prince looked at Cui Tingyun.
"It's a long way, please cherish it, and if you have time—" the third prince paused, "Remember to come back and see." ”
Cui Tingyun touched the medicine bag in the bag and smiled.
"Okay."
"Squeak—"
At this moment, the guard at the door slowly opened the door.
Light from outside the walls shone in through the doorway.
"Let's go."
"Drive."
The coachman whipped the horse, and the horse carried the carriage slowly.
Under the sun, the group once again embarked on the journey to Zilai Mountain.
"I always feel like I've forgotten something." Wei Changming touched his head, but he couldn't remember.
"Looks like I didn't sleep well yesterday."
Xiao Xiao is solemn, hearty and clear.
Under the breeze, the three princes watched everyone disappear from sight, and then turned to leave.
High in the imperial city, the four princes looked at everything that happened at the door with a gloomy face.
"Fourth Prince, don't you really need me to make a move?" Beside him, a man dressed in black approached the side of the fourth prince.
"No, it's just a small episode, don't affect the overall situation because of this, since they are gone, let them go."
The four princes waved their hands and drew their gaze back to the palace in the imperial city.
"In the city, it's the big thing."
"Everything, are you ready?"
"Ready." The man in black replied, "We have prepared a warehouse of monrose grass, which is enough for the dose. ”
"Okay, well done." The Fourth Prince nodded.
"The prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor to the emperor is something we painstakingly found, and ordinary people can't find the connection at all."
The man in black continued:
"Monroe grass is a delicacy on the table, but the root of monrose grass and the prescription prepared by the imperial doctor for the emperor will produce weak toxins, and after a long time, under the accumulation of toxins, there is no cure."
"Well, well done, next-" The Fourth Prince showed a sneer. "I'm left with just a few good brothers."
Imperial Palace, inside the Palace of Nourishing the Heart.
"Your Majesty, today's medicine is here." An elderly eunuch prepares to enter the palace with a bowl of medicine.
At this time, a man who looked similar to the second prince also happened to pass by, but looking at his appearance, he was older than several princes.
"I'll do it."
The man took the decoction from the eunuch's hand and walked into the hall.
Directly in front of the palace, several palace maids stood on both sides, and after seeing the man entering the hall, they bowed slightly.
A middle-aged man lay on the bed and coughed lightly.
A majestic but somewhat weak voice came through the curtain of the door.
"Well, let's put the medicine on the side, just let the palace maid send it over."
"Okay." The man placed the medicine on the table.
The person who came was the eldest prince.
"When did you come back?" The bedridden man asked.
"Back to my father, the war in the south is anxious for a while, so I simply took the time to come out and take a look at you." The eldest prince replied, "Father, how is your health?" There are no better. ”
At this time, a palace maid took the medicine, walked lightly to the bedside, and slowly opened the curtain.
The middle-aged man lying on the bed got up slowly, and the palace maid took a spoon and fed it to the man one bite at a time.
"It's still the same, it's been like this since the previous battle with the old guy of the Hua family, but he is not much better."
"Ahem, ahem."
The middle-aged man covered his mouth and coughed again.
"But it's really hard for you, these days, you are fighting for your father."
"As long as your health improves, Father, these are nothing."
"Well, among my children, you are the most calm, and I am relieved that the army will be handed over to you."
"Father, you rest more, it's going to be dinner soon." The eldest prince hugged his fists and said, "I have to rush back first, father, you pay more attention to your body." ”
The middle-aged man nodded.
"Okay."
······
In a very ordinary warehouse, there is a rabbit with purple eyes blinking at the monrose grass in the warehouse in front of him.
That's right, this Mengluo rabbit is what Wei Changming has forgotten.
After the snack goods followed into the city, they broke away from the large army, ate in the east and nibbled in the west, and lived a very leisurely life.
A few days ago, the snack seller stumbled upon this warehouse, and then he couldn't walk anymore.
Among them, the smell of monrose grass deeply attracted rabbits.
For snack sellers, it's a paradise inside.
But the terrible thing is that the warehouse is actually patrolled every day, and several times he was thrown out by the guards.
So it took a lot of effort for the snack to finally jump to the top of the warehouse, squeeze in through the small hole in the window, and plunge into the monrose grass pile with a "plop".
"Poof, poof."
Unlike other rabbits, the snack doesn't like to eat leaves, and what it likes to eat most is the root of monrose grass.
Half an hour later, the well-fed snack rolled into the depths and slept contentedly.
At this time, the door to the warehouse was opened, and a guy walked into the warehouse.
"Alas, what bad luck."
cooking dishes for the current emperor, well done, rewarded; If you don't do it well, you have to hit the ground on your head.
Under the "humility", this errand fell to the youngest boy in the room.
In desperation, the boy could only bite the bullet.
Today is the first day that I officially became the imperial chef of the emperor's dinner.
The guy picked up a few monrose plants and weighed them.
"It's strange, why is the root of this mongola grass so short."
After a moment of doubt, the man stopped caring about this, took the plants and turned away.
"No matter, it's probably a special variety, the emperor must be a little different from us."
In his sleep, the snack seller felt as if someone had come in.
No matter what, I'm so full of food.
The snack guy scratched his belly with his paws, rolled over, and went back to sleep.
