After listening to what Empress Wu said, Li Zhi smiled a little weakly.

He turned his head and looked at Li Xian, Li Xian, Li Dan and Princess Taiping, who were worried on the side, and said with a smile: "I'm fine." ”

Li Xian, Li Xian and Li Dan, although their expressions were relaxed, the string in their hearts was still tight.

Especially Li Xian.

The first thing the emperor said when he opened his eyes was to summon Xue Rengui back to Beijing.

Who is the most trusted minister in the emperor's heart can be seen at a glance.

Li Xian knew better that in the early years, Xue Rengui not only saved the emperor's life, but also the life of the Empress Wu.

Xue Rengui is the emperor's trusted minister, how can he not be the trusted minister of the Empress Wu,

Summoning Xue Rengui back to Beijing, I'm afraid it's more, it's to help stabilize the situation after the martial arts.

Sure enough, husband and wife are connected, far better than father and son.

Li Zhi didn't perceive Li Xian's thoughts, glanced at Qin Heming, then looked at Empress Wu again, and said: "When a doctor treats a patient, he should let him do his best, and there can be no restrictions due to the identity of the patient. ”

Of course, the medical case proposed by Li Xuan was even more ruthless, and the emperor was even more afraid to accept it.

"Okay." Empress Wu also knew this matter in her heart, she looked at Qin Heming and said, "Imperial Doctor Qin, this palace was a little anxious just now......

"Don't dare." Qin Heming hurriedly bowed down and said: "It is human nature for the Queen of Heaven to be Your Majesty, and Her Majesty the Queen of Heaven has a deep relationship between husband and wife, and she is really a model in the world." ”

"Alright, let's get started." Li Zhi smiled.

Empress Wu nodded reluctantly and stepped back slightly, but she still held the emperor's hand tightly.

Qin Heming sat next to the emperor's head from the other side, and then took out two hollow long needles again, and after slightly burning them on the candle, they slowly inserted them into the emperor's Baihui and brain.

Extreme seriousness and care.

The long needles were all inserted into the emperor's brain, and Qin Heming gently flicked the silver needles while asking casually: "Your Majesty, did the king of Nanchang also propose bloodletting treatment in the brain in the past?" ”

"Hmm!" Li Zhi replied softly, closed his eyes and recalled: "That was a few years ago, the king of Nanchang had just entered Beijing, and he was very bold in his words and actions...... Why, didn't Imperial Doctor Qin hear from King Nanchang about this? ”

"Nope." Qin Heming shook his head and said in a low voice: "If Your Majesty may not believe it, the minister and the king of Nanchang have never met, let alone have any conversations. ”

"Yes." Li Zhi thought about it and said, "I remember that when the King of Nanchang was in Wuzhou, the Qin Imperial Physician had already left Wuzhou, and then he went to Jiannan Dao ......."

"The minister was taken care of by His Majesty in Jiannan Province." Qin Heming nodded slightly, and then said: "After arriving in Chengdu, I learned that it was the king of Nanchang who found the minister and recommended it to His Majesty, but the minister has been practicing medicine in Shu for several years and has no chance to meet the king of Nanchang." ”

"Mr. and Nanchang Wang use the same means and concepts as Nanchang Wang in the treatment of wind disease." Li Zhi said in a low voice: "Mei Niang, I will copy a copy of the records on medical skills discussed between King Nanchang and me in the early years to Mr. Qin. ”

"Yes!" Empress Wu nodded slightly, from the subtle changes in the emperor's words, Empress Wu could hear that Qin Heming's treatment was indeed useful.

Even more clearly, before the emperor spoke, black blood had flowed out of the needle on the top of the emperor's head.

The emperor was still talking to Qin Heming, without the slightest notice.

These are all Qin Heming's deliberate guidance, and Empress Wu has to admit that this Qin Imperial Doctor does have some means.

Li Xian also watched from the side, looking solemn at the same time, he couldn't help but relax, and his face showed a hint of joy.

A moment later, the blood in Qin Heming's needle had turned red.

"Alright." With a flick of his finger, blood was no longer flowing from the needle.

With a slight pick of the second finger of the middle index, the two silver needles have jumped out one after another.

Everything was not over yet, Qin Heming gently pressed his hands on the top of the emperor's head, making the emperor feel comfortable for a while.

At this time, Qin Heming continued: "Your Majesty's actions today should be taken as a warning, and there can be no more such emotional changes. ”

"Today is a special situation, so I have to do it." The emperor shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I don't want to. ”

"The minister is just admonishing, what he can do is to ask His Majesty to take medicine in time, if His Majesty takes medicine in time, today's incident may not break out again." Qin Heming mentioned again.

Li Zhi was the most sensitive, and couldn't help asking, "I'm sick?" ”

"Good luck this time, Your Majesty has been recuperating in the past few years, and with today's emotional shocks, the minister just happened to draw out the wind and blood, but next time there will be no such good luck." After a slight pause, Qin Heming still said two good words: "But now, as long as you recuperate well and take medicine on time, you will not relapse in three or two years, but you must take medicine on time." ”

"Thank you, sir, then." Li Zhi smiled and said, "Queen, you can handle the rest of the matter." ”

"The concubine understands, San Lang, Shilang, you send the Qin Imperial Doctor back first." Empress Wu looked up at Li Xian and Li Dan.

"Whoa!" Li Xian and Li Dan respectfully accepted the order, then looked at Qin Heming and said, "Sir, please." ”

"Retire!"

……

In the main hall, Li Zhi was lying on the bed, and Empress Wu and Li Xian were standing aside.

Li Zhi opened his mouth and said: "Tell Yuan Qing that I will see the person surnamed Xiao and Li Jingye within a month, if he can't do it, he will go and do his work well." ”

"The concubine is the order." Empress Wu nodded seriously.

"Prince." Li Zhi then opened his mouth and said: "From today onwards, you will start to thoroughly investigate all the hidden fields in Henan Province, take your time, don't be in a hurry, Henan Province will be investigated, and then Jiangnan Province will be investigated, Jiangnan Province will be investigated after Jiangnan Province, and Northwest Province and Hebei Province will be investigated last." ”

"Whoa!" Li Xian solemnly bowed his hand, he understood that the emperor was worried about the affairs of the army of Northwest Province and Hebei Province.

That's why the two places are the least to be moved.

"How is Luoyang and Chang'an in the city?" Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

"The people in the Demon Sect tried to storm several mansions in Luoyang, but fortunately, they didn't cause any losses, but Chang'an." After a slight pause, Li Xian arched his hand and said: "The Turks tried to rush into the mansion of Ashina Nishulu, the general of the left guard, and Ashina Gana, the commander of the right guard, but the left minister had already expected that the people who attacked would be killed. ”

"The left minister still has some foresight." Li Zhi lay on the bed and smiled calmly, and said, "Let Zuo Xiang come alone to talk to me tomorrow morning, and the queen will help me deal with other things."

Erlang, you have to keep an eye on the Jiangnan side, so that King Cao and King Yue can pay more attention to the different movements over there. ”

"The retainers take the order." Li Xian solemnly bowed his hand.

"Don't worry, it's nothing big." Li Zhi waved his hand indifferently and said: "The matter of the Western Regions is over, Pei Qing is about to return to the dynasty, and the matter of Subi is not too much off, and at the end of autumn, you can summon the king of Nanchang back to Beijing, let the Duke of Yan Guogong stay in Lanzhou, balance the Quartet, and there will be no major events in the world, not to mention, I am still there." ”

"Yes!" Li Xian bowed.

"Okay, you go back and rest, don't tell the crown princess more about today's events." Li Zhi once again admonished two sentences.

"The sons and daughters receive the order, and the sons and daughters retire." Li Xian bowed, and then slowly retreated.

For a while, there were only two people left in the palace, the emperor and the queen of Wu.

Li Zhi said softly: "I'm really worried that I won't be able to get over this time, Mei Niang." ”

"Your Majesty has your own blessing." Empress Wu helped the emperor cover the quilt.

Li Zhi shook his head and said: "Erlang's temperament is still much worse, he still has to grind, those things in Yintian, let him check in front, you stare at the back, what to do, you know, I can rest assured, take your time, no one can snatch away my and your things." ”

"Yes!" Empress Wu nodded with some emotion.

In the past few years, she and the emperor have worked hard to raise money and food for the war.

Even juniors like the King of Nanchang know that it is not easy for the court, and they fight hard in the northwest, and they are thrifty everywhere, but there are still people digging the corners of the court.

Dig into her corner.

This is something that Empress Wu cannot tolerate.

Datang's money and grain, and Datang's household departments are all under her control.

Li Xian found out so many hidden fields at once, which made the Empress Wu somewhat ugly.

However, so many hidden fields appeared at once, and Empress Wu immediately smelled the smell of countless money and grain.

She was ready to kill.

Now that everything is in front of the prince, she is better at killing.

"Also, Mei Niang, tell Yuan Wanqing and let him think about what he did wrong about today's events, so that everything became the way it is now." Li Zhi lay on the royal couch, gently patted the back of Empress Wu's hand, sighed lightly and said, "Mei Niang, you can't go wrong!" ”

"The concubine understands." Empress Wu nodded seriously.

Today's events really scared her, if the emperor really has something long and two short, the unlucky one is definitely her.

When the crown prince ascends the throne, she, the queen, will immediately become the queen mother.

The countless people standing by the prince's side will immediately rush out to fight for power with her.

With Li Xian's temperament, he would definitely secretly support these people behind his back.

The Queen Mother did have the opportunity to interfere in politics, but that was when the emperor was not yet an adult.

But now Li Xian is not only an adult, but he also has his own crown princess and has his own son.

Even now, he can marry a very valuable in-law for his son and help him seize power.

In this way, it is almost impossible for the Empress Wu to take control of the court again.

……

"Rest in this temple tonight." Li Zhi raised his head, looked at the martial queen in front of him, and said softly: "With you by my side, I can feel much more at ease." ”

"Yes!" Empress Wu responded softly, and she could feel the weakness and uneasiness in Li Zhi's heart.

This feeling has not appeared for a long time, and the last time was when the eldest grandson Wuji was abolished.

As for the earlier, it was when the king was abolished.

Whether it is the Turks, the Demon Dao, or even Li Jingye, they can't shake the emperor in the slightest.

What really worries the emperor is life and death.

I don't know when, Li Zhi has fallen asleep faintly.

Empress Wu asked the table to be lifted aside, and then began to deal with the official documents in earnest.

……

Under the gate of heaven, it was quiet.

Li Xian stood under the city gate, looking at Luoyang City in the distance, his eyes were complicated.

At this moment, in Luoyang City, there is a celebration.

Although the emperor spent his birthday in the Qianyang Palace, the entire Luoyang was celebrated for three consecutive days.

The Ministry of Officials, Honglu Temple, Guanglu Temple, Luozhou Mansion, as well as Luoyang and Henan counties, all prepared a full procession to celebrate the emperor's birthday.

But today, it's a little bit worse.

Li Xian didn't look back, but in his mind, in the entire palace behind him, there were only two people.

One was the pale emperor lying on the bed; One is the Empress Wu who sits next to the emperor and controls the world with a pen.

As for him, the crown prince, he can only return to his East Palace.

Turning around, Li Xian walked in the direction of the East Palace.

No one noticed that without a sound, a figure had suddenly flashed out of the darkness and blended into Li Xian's team at the moment he turned the corner.

The official uniform of a subordinate of the East Palace did not attract anyone's attention, and then they went to the East Palace with Li Xian.

The moment he entered the gate of the East Palace, the figure raised his head.

……

Under the moonlight, Li Jingye's face was full of cold mockery.

I call Qin Heming, not other imperial doctors, because it is better to keep it secret.

Qin Heming is new to the palace, and it has nothing to do with the inside and outside, but the other imperial doctors don't know who is related to them behind it.

……

Well, in fact, I just don't want to write about the details of the method of competing with other imperial doctors, too many words.
