Chapter 451: Sincerity
(Girls' Literature)
"You kid. The emperor walked to Bai Xiyun's side with a smile, and patted Bai Xiyun's shoulder with a big hand with an emerald wrench, and his affection was overflowing, "Although there have been heroes since ancient times who don't ask where they come from, but in the end it is different, if you are my son, you will be able to be a companion with the third and fourth children in the future." I will not be so worried about it now. ”
The emperor's words shocked everyone present was stunned for a moment.
Qi Miao lowered her head, for fear that her eyes would reveal her mood, because she couldn't help but start worrying about whether the emperor knew something.
Bai Xiyun is close to Qi Miao's thoughts.
The third prince looked at Bai Xiyun several times in surprise and shock.
Bai Xiyun smiled, and then said slowly: "The emperor has praised it falsely, and it is really too elevating to say this." Weichen is the emperor's courtier, the courtier of the Great Zhou, and he must do his best to be loyal to the Great Zhou. The implication is that he doesn't need to be a companion, and he will also be loyal to the heavenly family in a proper manner.
The emperor laughed, as if he knew that such a statement was a heavy burden for a courtier like Bai Xiyun, so he didn't mention it again, and said: "It seems that the capital is not peaceful these days, it seems that I am old, and I can't suppress those young people, and I dare to act under my nose many times!"
The Emperor's tone eventually turned to pent-up anger.
Having been in the court for most of his life, and having been in a high position for many years, it has been a long time since anyone has touched the emperor's bottom line like this. He is indeed old, his body is not as good as before, King De dared to take advantage of his serious illness and coma to do a big thing to control the government and kill his courtiers, he looked at the face of Wan Guifei who had gone, for the sake of many years of father-son love, and did not want to suppress the second prince into the dust at once.
It's just that the emperor couldn't imagine that the second prince would be able to do things to this point.
They are already people who have been punished and grounded, and they still have the ability to stretch out their hands in the palace!
If it weren't for the fact that the emperor had a little understanding of his son's temperament, and in case he had arranged guards in advance, and ordered the third prince to keep an eye on this matter, Bai Xiyun and Qi Miao would have died at the feet of the Son of Heaven! Of course, the emperor knew that the second prince had managed some contacts in the court over the years. But the emperor couldn't imagine that there were really those wolf ambitions who dared to stand in line in advance when he was getting worse now.
At that time, the emperor also stood out from the struggle, and he knew very well about the matter of his brother's wall, and he had never seen any shady means in order to compete for the throne?
Now, it is as if a new cycle has been entered, and that bloody and impersonal struggle is about to befall the royal family again? This is a situation that the emperors of all dynasties have experienced, and it is also the situation that the emperors of all dynasties last want to see, because once this kind of struggle is put on the surface, it means that the emperor is really old.
The emperor's mind was full of thoughts, but his face was only between breaths, and without waiting for Bai Xiyun to answer, he said gently: "I know that you have been wronged this time, and I know everything in my heart. ”
As an emperor, being able to talk about it at this level is a matter of shame for a courtier even if he wants his life immediately.
Bai Xiyun pulled Qi Miao to kneel down, and kowtowed to the emperor in unison: "Thank you for the emperor's love, it is really a blessing for the minister to be loyal to the emperor." ”
The emperor smiled and waved his hand, motioning for Bai Xiyun and Qi Miao to get up. Su Mingbo hurriedly stepped forward to support Bai Xiyun.
When I looked up again, there were smiles on both sides.
Qi Miao saw that the atmosphere was a little relaxed, so he said: "How is the emperor's body in the past two days? Is the food fragrant? How is the sleep?"
The emperor smiled when he heard this, and said, "I have taken the elixir paid tribute by the Purple Cloud Immortal in the past two days, and I feel that my body is much better, I sleep well, and my meals are also very good. ”
"yes. Su Mingbo smiled and said: "The emperor's body is much better, and his complexion is better than before." ”
Purple Cloud Immortal?
Qi Miao had never heard of this person, not even Bai Xiyun, there were too many complicated things at home during this time. I don't have time to pay attention to these at all, and naturally I don't know that the emperor has recently favored one of the most favored Taoist chiefs.
Because the refining pill was extremely effective for the emperor, the emperor was happy and sealed the head of the Purple Cloud Dao as the Purple Cloud Immortal.
Qi Miao listened, and felt more and more in her heart that things were not going well. In her memory, the emperors who were obsessed with alchemy in the past had no good end in the end, and there were many who died of poisoning.
The emperor looks at it now, and his complexion is indeed much better, but does he know that the ammunition contains some drugs that can lift the look on the face but hollow out the body inside?
Thinking about it like this, Qi Miao felt that the smell mixed with ambergris just now was a little like poppy.
Qi Miao's delicate brows couldn't help frowning, she wanted to speak, but swallowed her words because there was not enough evidence to prove that the pill taken by the emperor was inappropriate. The emperors who are obsessed with the dream of immortality, where can they tolerate people to question their immortality? Qi Miao is afraid that as soon as he speaks, if the emperor is angry and touches his head, he is afraid that he will be sentenced heavily.
Don't look at the emperor's trust in her and Bai Xiyun now, it is also based on the emperor's happiness.
For facing the feudal emperor, Qi Miao has to consider three points when speaking.
In the end, Qi Miao just said: "If the emperor doesn't mind, the courtiers want to ask you for a peace pulse, and let the courtiers and Zijin rest assured." ”
When the emperor was in a coma, Qi Miao saved him, and everyone present knew about it.
The emperor also trusted Qi Miao's medical skills. Wen Yan did not object, but Qi Miao was out of the courtiers and juniors' fancy and filial piety for the king and elders. The emperor knows best what it means to be cold in a high place. Yes, I am most afraid that I will become a lonely person, and when I see Ken sincerely cares about my courtiers and juniors, I really like it in my heart. Bai Xiyun and Qi Miao, a couple, have often walked in front of the emperor since Wan Guifei was alive, and the emperor treats them as his juniors, like nephews.
Qi Miao, Bai Xiyun, and the three princes followed the emperor to the side hall, and when the emperor sat down on the big kang with a bright yellow mattress laid in the window, Qi Miao took a pulse pillow and placed it on the Ruyi cloud back pattern carved square table of black lacquered paulownia wood, and then confessed, kneeling on the pedal like the imperial doctor to ask the emperor for pulse.
After looking at her hands, Qi Miao already had a sense of proportion in her heart. But he didn't dare to say it all at once.
The emperor is now full of confidence in his body, and there is some unconcerned relief in his smile: "How is it?"
"The emperor is in good health. Qi Miao stood up, carefully considered his words in his heart, and then continued: "However, the emperor was sick before, and his body still has some weaknesses. ”
The emperor is old, and he has been hit by the matter of Concubine Wan, he was poisoned before, and now he is still taking the elixir, in fact, Qi Miao feels that the emperor's body is already strong and strong.
But even if she knew, she didn't dare to say some things directly. The doctors in the hospital may not be unable to see these symptoms, but no one dares to speak directly, and there must be a reason for this.
Qi Miao doesn't want to be in the same stream with others, but he also has to take his life into consideration. It's impossible to hurt the whole family by telling a few words of truth.
She had to discuss this matter carefully with Bai Xiyun after returning home.
When the emperor heard Qi Miao say this, he knew that Qi Miao did not approve of him taking the elixir.
But that's it, after all, she is a woman in a deep house, and she said this for his body, not to mention that Qi Miao saved the third prince and saved his life.
The emperor didn't care about what Qi Miao said, and he didn't ask deeply.
Qi Miao and Bai Xiyun chatted with the emperor for a while, and if there was nothing else to do, they left.
The third prince also took the opportunity to say goodbye and came out with the two.
When he got out of the Heart Cultivation Gate, Qi Miao asked the third prince: "That Purple Cloud Dao Chief's elixir is so effective, I don't know what the origin of this Dao Leader is." ”
The third prince smiled when he heard this, and said: "I know you will be curious, this Taoist chief is the ancestor of Baiyun Temple's cultivation, and was strongly recommended to his father by the governor of Fujian, that elixir is indeed magical, but not only does it require a lot of materials to refine, not to mention, alchemy is also really a troublesome thing." If it weren't for that, I would have stolen one for you to study. ”
Qi Miao knew that the third prince had misunderstood, but she was happy to see this misunderstanding.
"I'm not trying to get a snoop on other people's secret recipes, I'm just curious. Qi Miao's cheeks showed just the right amount of redness, and her eyes drooped shyly.
Qi Miao's innate softness and softness, such a pretty appearance of blushing cheeks, makes people feel as if they have a feather brush in their hearts, and even the hardest hearted people will feel soft-hearted at this time.
The third prince's smile was incredible, "I know, you are a famous teacher, and the techniques of this sect are no longer enviable, how can you covet other people's mastery? It's just a desire for knowledge." ”
"What His Royal Highness said is true. Qi Miao smiled.
Bai Xiyun on the side kept watching the interaction between Qi Miao and the third prince, and only felt that the expression of the third prince was very eye-catching. It was clearly a man's eyes pleasing to a woman's eyes.
Bai Xiyun stopped, and when Qi Miao and the three princes stopped, he stopped between the two without a trace, and saluted respectfully: "Thank you for your help today, Your Highness the Third Highness, otherwise the two of us don't know what will happen." ”
The third prince smiled and waved his hand: "I said that there is no need to be polite." I'm just doing what I'm told. It's just that you must be careful in the future, I don't know if the other party will have a follow-up if he can't make a plan this time. Be careful when you go out, too. ”
"Yes. Thank you, Your Highness, I will arrange it carefully when I go back. ”
Bai Xiyun and Qi Miao saluted and said goodbye to the three princes together.
When he returned to the carriage and counted the number of guards, he headed in the direction of the grange.
On the carriage, Qi Miao's brows kept frowning, Bai Xiyun held Qi Miao's hand, felt Qi Miao's cold fingertips, and couldn't help but comfort: "Don't worry." ”
