Chapter 632: Meritorious Service for Guilt
Gonggong Zhao thought for a while, and said tentatively: "Slave and maid, remember, the emperor, there seems to be a treasure box in your private vault, and as soon as you open it, there will be music?"
"There's such a thing. The emperor recalled: "This is a few years ago, when I was birthday, a courtier sent it, saying that it was a treasure made by two generations of skilled craftsmen, but it is a little interesting, well, this treasure box is indeed suitable for Xinping." ”
"Think again, what else?"
Zhao Gonggong said again: "The slave maid remembers that the princess seems to have mentioned it last year, and she wanted to mention a set of pearl shirts in the book, because it would take at least hundreds of days to make, and then the princess forgot about it, presumably now there are ready-to-wear clothes." ”
The emperor's expression became more and more relaxed, and he nodded with a smile: "You old slave, but you have a good memory, yes, after your reminder, I also remembered this, and you will send someone to ask in a while, to see if the pearl shirt is made, and if it is made, it will be sent to Xinpingguan together." ”
"Yes!" Zhao Gonggong responded respectfully, and when he saw the emperor's happy face, he couldn't help but smile.
These days, the emperor is rarely so happy.
At this moment, there were footsteps again, and as soon as Gonggong Zhao frowned, he saw a eunuch come in and report: "Your Majesty, Huo is useless to ask to see." ”
At this time, Huo is useless to ask to see?
The master and servant in the hall all moved in their hearts, although the emperor was a little dissatisfied with Huo Wufu recently, but this person was refining the Great Return Pill for himself, even if he had not officially refined, this was also an important person, even if the emperor didn't want to see ordinary courtiers, he wouldn't not see him.
"Tell me the will, open the key to the palace gate, and let him in. ”
When he said this, his original good mood was affected, or he hurriedly asked to see him at this time, which made the emperor feel that something might be wrong.
Zhao Gonggong did not go out immediately, but retreated to the side.
After a while, Huo Wufu walked in quickly with an embarrassed expression, and when he came in, he took a look at him, which made the emperor, who was already uneasy in his heart, chuckle.
Could it really be that there is something wrong with the refining of the Great Returning Pill?
"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty of a capital crime!" As soon as Huo Wufu, who looked embarrassed, came in, he knelt on the ground and said in a hoarse voice.
Zhao Gonggong's heart was also suddenly, and he secretly glanced at the emperor and found that the emperor's face turned white.
"Huo Wufu, tell me quickly, what happened?" The emperor saw him like that, and he knew that it was not good, and he didn't have to ask now, it must have something to do with the matter of Da Huandan, but the emperor still had a little hope, and asked, hoping that things would not be too bad.
Huo Wuyong didn't dare to raise his head, and said: "Just before the big demon entered Beijing, broke into Wanchun Garden, and destroyed all the medicinal treasures for refining the Great Returning Pill, as well as some of the medicinal treasures for refining the Small Returning Pill!
"What?" The news brought too much stimulation to the emperor, and the emperor only felt that it was a little difficult for him to breathe in an instant, clutching his chest.
Zhao Gonggong saw it on the side, and his face also changed: "Your Majesty!"
He was almost quick and pounced, barely holding the emperor who stood up and leaned back.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Finding that the emperor's face was sallow, his eyes were closed, and all the eunuchs who served in the palace were frightened, Zhao Gonggong turned around and shouted: "What are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you go and ask the imperial doctor!"
Then ignoring those who ran out, he directly took out a small white jade porcelain bottle from his arms, and in front of several people in the hall, he first pulled out the stopper and took a sip, and then poured it into the emperor.
This is the rule of the palace, a person like the emperor may not have to be so nervous when eating fruits, and all the medicines that are imported need to be tested first.
There was not much potion poured down, and in a hurry, Zhao Gonggong had to use a little means to break open a crack in the emperor's clenched teeth, and poured it in little by little.
Seeing that the emperor swallowed subconsciously, and his face turned a little back, Zhao Gonggong breathed a sigh of relief.
Several of the most skilled imperial doctors came the fastest, and they arrived a moment later, carefully checking the pulse, carefully examining it, and all of them looked solemn.
"Is this a secret medicine?" Vaguely knowing that the emperor's body has always seemed to be healthy, it is the use of Xiao Huandan, and a few imperial doctors have taken a pulse at this time, and the emperor's physical condition has reached the point where he can only rely on this pill to hang his life, even more than a few months ago.
They didn't dare to say the result of the pulse easily, so they only looked at each other and said in trembling voices: "The emperor will wake up in a quarter of an hour at the latest." ”
After all, a potion with the same effect as Xiao Huandan, it will work faster when you drink it, and you can wake up in a quarter of an hour.
Seeing that they were all pale, Zhao Gonggong was also annoyed, so he waved his hand to wait outside.
He stayed by the emperor's side for a long time, and with a gentle cough, the emperor woke up.
"People...... What about people?" coughed weakly, and the Emperor struggled to get up.
Gonggong Zhao could only help people to sit up, the emperor's face was scorched, but he still remembered what he hadn't heard just now, and when he saw that this was no longer the place just now, he said: "Let, let Huo Wufu come in!"
"Your Majesty, your body ......"
"Let him in!" insisted the Emperor.
Zhao Gonggong was helpless, so he could only give a look to a eunuch not far away, and the eunuch immediately walked out quietly, and after a while, Huo Wufu walked to this side hall and knelt down again.
Sitting on the couch, staring at the embarrassed Taoist viciously, the emperor slowly ordered: "What happened just now, let me continue." ”
Huo had no choice but to continue what he had just said and carefully reported what had happened.
"The ...... Damn!
After a few gasps and feeling dizzy, the emperor didn't want to waste any more energy, so he gave the order directly.
"Spread the word to me, immediately mobilize the Daomen and the Ouchi guards, and make every effort to track down the demon who broke into Wanchun Garden, there must be no mistake!"
"Immediately, check the three kings, and also, the whereabouts of the acting prince!"
Zhao Gongcheng was about to respond, but was stopped by the emperor with a look, and the emperor stared at the Taoist kneeling on the ground with a gloomy look: "The medicine store was destroyed, you can't escape the blame, this is a capital crime, but I will give you a chance if you have been refining the pill for me for many years!"
"These two things are actually one thing, you are responsible, and you are considered guilty and meritorious!"
"The minister will handle this well!" Huo Wufu said on his knees.
He was also ruthless in his heart, this time the incident was really calculated, not only himself, his own apprentices, and his own elders would be blamed, this was a great revenge for his life and to break this lineage!
Although it was committed by the big demon who entered Beijing, it was precisely because of this that he wanted to investigate, take revenge, and capture it so that he could exonerate himself!
What's more, when he was in Wanchun Garden, he had already injured it, this feud has been settled, and the demon will be avenged, and if he doesn't take advantage of the demon illness to kill the demon, when it relieves this breath, it will be even more troubled for himself.
Huo Wufu gritted his teeth and slowly retreated.
