Meng Shi had other things, so she asked the two juniors to go shopping by herself, and she left first.

Yunzhu pulled Gu Min into the pavilion, and asked with a smile how she got along with her brother: "My brother, there is nothing to pick when you are a brother, I am afraid that you will suffer from being a father-in-law, and even my mother often dislikes him." ”

Gu Min lowered his eyes and smiled: "Yes, I don't think it yet, at most he speaks more straightforwardly, and his actions are a little informal." ”

Long before she got married, she knew that Li Yao was not a literati, and he was going to go to the battlefield in the future.

Therefore, Gu Min would not ask Li Yao for the same way as a literati and a gentleman.

After Gu Min finished speaking, he hadn't heard Yun Zhu answer for a long time, and he raised his eyes curiously, and saw Yun Zhu holding his chin with one hand, looking at her with a smile.

Gu Min's face was hot: "Why are you smiling like this?" ”

Yunzhu: "I'm happy for my brother, I have met someone who is so gentle and likes him, I have to envy his good fortune." ”

Gu Min squirmed for a while and asked softly, "What color does your brother usually like?" I wanted to make him a summer robe, and when I asked him, he only said that he would not pick this one, and told me to do it casually. ”

Yunzhu said helplessly: "It's really incomprehensible, if you want me to say that you don't have to spend this effort at all, he doesn't know how to cherish your mind when he does, just like playing the piano to a cow." ”

Gu Min smiled: "I don't have anything to do left or right, just pass the time." ”

Yunzhu thought for a moment and said, "Red, right?" I remember when I was a child, the embroidery room gave me new clothes, and my brother said that red was beautiful every time he saw it, but in fact, he knew something, it must be that he liked red. ”

Gu Min remembered it and invited her: "Next time you come, let's do needlework together?" It just so happens that you also make one for Uncle Guo. ”

Yunzhu sneered: "It's so beautiful, I don't like women the most, and it's my father's birthday before, I will patiently make two gadgets to make them happy." ”

Gu Min said with a smile: "It is filial piety to send my father and mother, and it is affection to send my husband, even if you embroider a handkerchief and sew a purse, Uncle Guo will be very happy when he receives it." ”

Yunzhu looked unimpressed.

It's just that when I came back two days later, I found that Gu Min was really burying himself in making a summer robe for his brother, and Yun Zhugan didn't look interesting, so he picked a piece of bamboo blue silk from Gu Min and prepared to embroider a handkerchief for Cao Xun. She didn't forget to be a loving couple with Cao Xun, Cao Xun had given her jewelry before, and she was also a little bit of a whisper.

Gu Min saw her staring at the cut silk in a daze, and asked with a smile, "Do you want to embroider any patterns?" ”

Yunzhu nodded, mandarin ducks and branches and the like, it was too complicated and troublesome.

Gu Min helped come up with an idea: "You embroider two auspicious clouds, and then sew his words on the corners, and you will become a husband and wife." ”

Yunzhu thinks this method is feasible.

She conceived in her mind two auspicious clouds, one large and one small, which were very elegant in her imagination, but the embroidery was completely changed, they were all round and rolling, the big clouds were in front, and a line was pulled out to hook the small one behind, I am afraid that the immortals would not take advantage of such clouds when they saw such clouds.

Yunzhu wanted to destroy this handkerchief before Gu Min found out, but was stopped by Gu Min, who noticed it in time, took the embroidered bandage and looked at it for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's very chic, the big one is Uncle Guo, the small one is you, holding hands and loving people." ”

Yunzhu: "......"

The main thing is that she doesn't want to embroider a new one, Yunzhu will make do with this one, if Cao Xun dares to laugh at her, she will never use needlework for him again in her life.

It's not good to give gifts for no reason, Yunzhu has been hiding this handkerchief until the Dragon Boat Festival.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Cao Xun first took Yunzhu to see the dragon boat, found a quiet grassland to accompany her to put paper kites in the afternoon, played until dusk and returned to the city, the two went to the restaurant for dinner, and then walked around the night view of the capital for an hour.

Yunzhu is fun, and the soles of my feet are so tired that I am tired all day.

Cao Xun seemed to have inexhaustible strength, and he actually wanted to press it down after bathing.

Yunzhu pushed his shoulder: "Aren't you tired?" ”

Cao Xun responded in another way.

Rao is marriage has been married for almost a year, Yunzhu was still blushing by his response, glared at him, and took out the handkerchief from under the pillow: "Give you something, you accepted my gift, you have to listen to me tonight." ”

Cao Xun glanced at the object that was held in the hand of the little lady and couldn't see the whole picture, and teased: "Then this gift must satisfy me." ”

Yunzhu annoyed him: "If you don't want it, forget it." ”

Cao Xun sat next to her, snatched the handkerchief from her hand, and the first thing he saw was the two "fat" clouds, and then found two slightly crooked small characters in the corner.

Rubbing his fingertips over the clumsy stitches, Cao Xun looked at her and said, "I'm afraid it's not easy to find such a skilled embroiderer in the capital, you really bothered with this ceremony." ”

Yunzhu: "......"

She grimaced to snatch the handkerchief back.

Cao Xun hugged the puffing little lady, kissed her neck and said, "You don't usually touch the needle and thread, do you have any?" ”

Yunzhu deliberately stretched out a finger: "It's pricked, and a lot of blood is shed." ”

Cao Xun grabbed her right hand and said unexpectedly: "It turns out that when you were a female celebrity, you held a needle in your left hand." ”

Yunzhu: "......"

"Although it doesn't hurt anymore, I still have to make up for it."

In the next moment, Cao Xun took her finger that she pretended to be injured in her mouth, and looked at her with long eyes, which reflected the candlelight of the night.

Yun Zhu felt that his tricks were really not like what people of his age would do.

The fingers were kissed, and Yunzhu fell asleep tonight after almost two watches.

When he woke up the next day, he found Cao Xun sitting at the head of the bed, his right leg propped up, and the handkerchief was placed on his knee. Before Yun Zhu could distinguish his expression when he looked at the veil, Cao Xun had already looked away at her, and asked while putting away the veil, "Do you still want to go out of the city today?" ”

Yun Zhu immediately closed his eyes, and said weakly: "I won't go anywhere today, just stay in the mansion." ”

.

Unlike the refreshed Cao Xun, on the two days of the Dragon Boat Festival, Emperor Yuanqing unfortunately contracted a wind chill.

Wind chill is not a serious illness, but it is strange and uncomfortable to attack, this time Emperor Yuanqing's symptoms are more serious, no runny nose or cough, but the headache is unbearable, and the whole body is not energetic.

Don't look at it as just a cold wind, if it falls on the emperor, it's a big deal.

The Tai Hospital didn't even dare to let go of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, and all the Tai Doctors stayed in the palace on standby.

Emperor Yuanqing didn't get better after taking medicine for two days, and that evening, he announced the Taoist priest Tongyuan Zhenren, who had been the most favored by him in the past two years, into the palace, and asked Tongyuan Zhenren to immediately refine a pill for him that could relieve symptoms, otherwise he wouldn't even be able to sleep well.

There is a special alchemy room in the palace, and Tongyuan Zhenren immediately went over to prepare.

At this time, the Tai Hospital sent Emperor Yuanqing a decoction to be used tonight as usual.

Emperor Yuanqing didn't want to drink it: "Your medicine doesn't work, I have already ordered a real person to make an alchemy for me." ”

Imperial Physician Deng, who delivered the medicine, persuaded bitterly: "Your Majesty, the wind cold is never cured in a day or two, and the real person's pill can prolong life, but it does not cure the wind cold." ”

Emperor Yuanqing listened to the persuasion and reluctantly drank this bowl of bitter medicinal soup.

When the effect of the medicine came up, Emperor Yuanqing fell asleep, slept for about two hours, and for some reason woke up again, relieved his hand once, the person woke up, and remembered the matter of the pill, Emperor Yuanqing asked the great eunuch Wan Gonggong beside him: "How is the real person's Dan refined?" ”

Wan Gonggong said respectfully: "I only sent a furnace of Qi Nourishing Pill two quarters of an hour ago, and the slave maid saw that the emperor was sleeping soundly, and I couldn't bear to wake you up." ”

Emperor Yuanqing pinched his forehead: "Take it." ”

Gonggong Wan came over with a box of pills, a total of five, each of which was the size of a dragon's eye.

Before taking it, Emperor Yuanqing asked the pill for this Qi Nourishing Pill, and learned that the main medicinal material was similar to the pill he had taken before, and only a common medicine for treating wind and cold was added.

Emperor Yuanqing took it with confidence.

Before falling asleep, Emperor Yuanqing was still thinking about the court meeting after the festival.

I hope this illness will get better soon, otherwise he will go to the court in a huff, and the civil and military officials will think that he has been messing around with his concubines again in the past few days.

Emperor Yuanqing fell asleep, and Gonggong Wan asked an eighteen-year-old godson to guard in front of the dragon couch, and he went to lie outside for a while.

Xiao Wan's father-in-law has also been busy for a day, lying on the edge of the dragon couch and taking a nap, I don't know how long I slept, and the arm that was on the edge of the dragon couch and used as a pillow was suddenly pulled by something.

Xiao Wan Gonggong immediately woke up, and looked at the dragon couch, and saw a few dim lights left in the emperor's bedroom, he saw Emperor Yuanqing's eyes wide, staring at him tightly, as if he was going to say something!

In the middle of the night, Xiao Wan's father-in-law broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly shouted!

Father-in-law Wan came, and Li Yao, who was on duty tonight, also rushed in.

Emperor Yuanqing was speechless, and every breath became extremely difficult.

He knew that he couldn't wait for the imperial doctor, and he couldn't wait for Gu Shoufu, Li Yong and others, and Li Yao was left in front of him.

He grabbed Li Yao's hand with all his strength and wrote "two" on his palm three times in a row.

Li Yao was in a hurry, because of his father's relationship, Emperor Yuanqing was more like an amiable elder to him.

When he reacted to Emperor Yuanqing's meaning, his whole body suddenly stiffened, and he looked over in disbelief.

When Emperor Yuanqing saw that he understood, he was relieved or unwilling, the only light left in his eyes was like a lamp going out, and the hand holding Li Yao also fell weakly.

Emperor Yuanqing, who was only forty-two years old, collapsed on the seventh day of the fifth month of the year, and the child was three quarters.

The death knell from the deep palace woke up all the officials and people in the city.

Chapter 52 The crown prince ascends the throne and is called Emperor Qianxing.

Most of the mansions of the noble family were on the outskirts of the imperial city, so the death knell could be heard more clearly than elsewhere.

The first bell woke Cao Xun from his deep sleep, and he immediately stepped out of the stepping bed, picked up the official uniform on the hanger and quickly changed his clothes.

Yunzhu was awakened by the sound of the bell and his movement at the same time, reflecting the meaning of the death knell, and she had a sense of unreality in a dream.

When the seventh bell followed by the sixth, Yunzhu burst into tears.

Emperor Yuanqing?

Only one year older than my father, why is it suddenly gone?

Cao Xun had already prepared, counting the bells, and if there was a seventh ring, there would be a ninth, which was enough to prove that the emperor had died.

He folded back into the tent, held the little lady's shoulders and said, "I'll go to the palace first, and you will rush over with the lady later." ”

The Cao family is a relative, no matter whether they are summoned in the palace or not, they should go to wait outside the imperial city tonight.

Yunzhu has come out of the initial sadness, Emperor Yuanqing is her close elder, but he is not an ordinary elder, the imperial city is destined to not be calm tonight, and there are still things to worry about.

"Got it, go ahead." Yunzhu's heart was confused.

Cao Xun touched her head one last time and strode away.

Cao Shao's movements were also very fast, almost at the same time as Cao Xun arrived outside the door, the brothers looked at each other, didn't have time to speak, turned over their horses respectively, and rushed towards the imperial city in the night.

At the same time, officials living in all directions of the city were rushing to the imperial city, and the civil officials were also on horseback, not daring to delay any time.

The Cao Xun brothers and Li Yong arrived outside the imperial city at about the same time.

When Li Yong dismounted, he stepped on the air, and he didn't get up, so he moved to the closed gate of the imperial city on his knees, and fell to the ground and wailed bitterly.
