At that time, a team of chariots and horses escorted her back to Beijing from Nanjun safely, and he stood under the gate of Jiankang City, looking at the yellow dust raised in the distance as it approached, and it became closer.The curtain of the car was lifted, and the little face looked a little haggard because it couldn't bear the journey.There was no imaginary reprimand, she didn't even say a word of complaint, she just smiled at him, and everything was warmed in an instant.The servant said that when the girl received the royal order from the king of Nanjun, she knelt and was very calm.The moment he saw her, there was a sentence in his mind that seemed to echo: "Brother Cheng, I know that you have supernatural powers, but I always believe that you will not force me" He suddenly felt a place in his chest, and it hurt without warning.But he squeezed a smile at her and approached her a little.He said, "Yan'er, this will be our home from now on." ”She lived in the horse mansion, as a hostess, as a Qing monk.He gradually realized that the girl who only knew how to cry and laugh before was gone, and he would never go back in the past few years.In fact, what he wanted to ask was: "Are you willing to marry me?"
The death of the Fan family, the people have a Zhong who wants to leave, and the Zhong is unbearable; Destroy it with a hammer, and the bell will sound.Fear that people will hear about it and take away their own ears, and cover their ears.The wicked hear it, but also; Evil self-hearing, contradiction also cover his ears and steal the bell under the long steps in front of the hall stood a thin figure, the slanting sun sprinkled, the blurred shadow on the bluestone slab could vaguely recognize that the thin body was slightly tilted, with the help of a crutch to stabilize the figure."
Xiuyi Niangniang, the emperor invites you in."
She bowed slightly, "I'm tired of my father-in-law." ”Step by step, the slanting sun dragged her shadow to the long age, just like that, one by one, unhurriedly climbed the long steps, stepped into the high hurdle, and walked in front of him.His eyes moved away from the fold at hand, and he couldn't help frowning when he raised his eyes: "Why is there no one to serve you, just sit down quickly" "Emperor Xie" She held her cane, stood up straight, moved slowly, and sat down on the tea seat by the wall."
In the future, if there is something, I will ask someone to spread the word," Xiao Zhaoye's brows were still wrinkled, "Why bother to come by yourself" Hearing this, she pulled the corners of her mouth, a little bitter: "In the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to get rid of the aconite poison, and I will have eyebrows." ”The words "What do you say" and "Aconitum Poison" flashed like a sword, cutting through all his defenses in an instant.Xiao Zhaoye's wide-eyed eyes could not hide his astonishment, he never had the luxury of hoping that this case would turn around, and this revenge could finally be avenged, but when the old tune was repeated, he realized how much hatred he had buried in his heart."
It's not the key information, the concubine just found out the method of poisoning, maybe she can touch the melon along the vine" Facing his eyes that were faintly excited under the shock, Huo Caijie quickly looked away and sank her eyes, as if she was afraid that he would be disappointed."
It's okay" As if he couldn't wait, Xiao Zhaoye waved his hand, "You say" "The prince has a habit of soaking mugwort leaves in the facial wash every morning for an hour.And in the wormwood, there are aconite leaves. ”Her statement in a few words was like a flint rubbing, bursting out with dazzling sparks in front of Xiao Zhaoye's eyes."
Tell me more," his face could not hide his anxiety."
There is a field on the edge of the bauhinia forest, planted with mugwort.When the concubine passed by the wormwood bushes, she smelled the smell, compared the medical books, rummaged through, and found that there were a lot of aconites mixed in the mugwort.The leaves of this kind of aconitum are so similar to wormwood that they can be fake.In order to keep the wormwood fresh, every day when it is ugly, there are special people to pick mugwort leaves, soak them in clean water for an hour, and then have time to present them in the morning to wash the face of the prince.Cai Jie thought that it was late at night when picking, and it was even more difficult for people to distinguish between aconite and mugwort.Aconite leaves contain less poison and do not cause quick death, and they are soaked in facial cleanser over time and penetrate into the body through the skin, which is invisible.He also asked the emperor to send a physician to carefully investigate and verify, so that the truth could be revealed one day. ”"It's nature."
Xiao Zhaoye nodded, "It's hard for you to observe the details."
Don't worry, I'll take care of the rest.Before this can be publicized, I will have someone to send a reward to your palace.You don't have to be polite, you know" "Emperor Xie" There seemed to be a flash in her bright eyes, "Cai Jie said goodbye" "There is no need to salute. ”Xiao Zhaoye hurriedly waved his hand and called loudly, "Gonggong Xu sent a servant to help Xiu Yi Niangniang return to the palace. ”The eunuch in charge, Xu Longju, pushed the door in response to the sound and entered, only to respond."
The concubine thanked the emperor" Huo Caijie walked on crutches, turned around and walked slowly outside the hall.Her steps were slow, as if she was nostalgic for something.Walking to the palace gate, Xu Longju and a handmaid who looked quite well-behaved were already waiting outside the door.Seeing this, the maid was about to step forward to help, but Huo Caijie seemed to have suddenly broken free of something, and turned around a little out of shape: "Your Majesty, the concubine still has a word" Xiao Zhaoye raised his head to look at her suspiciously, and then waved his hand to order Xu Longju and the others to retreat."
What did you miss?"
"Please forgive the emperor for the crime of disrespect to his concubines." ”"You can be outspoken" "Emperor Xie" Huo Caijie clenched the cane in her palm and said word by word, "There is a strict hierarchy in the East Palace, and there are some things that can only be used by the crown princess except for the crown prince."
Wormwood planted on the edge of forbidden land falls into this category.The concubine heard that the queen mother had the habit of cooking mugwort tea in her early years" Xiao Zhaoye listened quietly, his eyes were terrifyingly deep."
It stands to reason that the toxin enters the body by internal administration, which is far more drastic than external application, but the Queen Mother is safe and sound.Cai Jie was puzzled, and she didn't dare to think in vain" "I know.What you said is indeed strange, but this is only a one-sided statement, there is no real evidence, and you must not talk about it to outsiders.I'll take care of that. ”"The concubine obeys."
Ever since he was eleven years old, he overheard the conversation between his father and the young master Wang outside the window, and he knew that the crown prince and the crown princess of the dynasty were at least inseparable, and his father was always cold and defensive against his mother.Soon, he recognized it and understood.In the royal family, marriages based on interests abounded, and he no longer felt sorry, nor was he interested in speculating on the heart of his obedient mother to his father.However, at this moment, when he re-examined his mother's role in his father's death with a skeptical attitude, he still felt a chill to the bone.It really doesn't make sense, it's the wormwood that is picked from the same land, the wormwood planted with the highly poisonous aconitum aconitum why the father will be poisoned into the viscera and die, but the queen mother has no signs of poisoning, isn't it impossible that there is no reason why the emperor will not "the emperor arrived" a shout let him break free from his heavy thoughts, and the holy car has stopped in front of the Shoukang Palace.Stepping inside, Xiao Zhaoye slowly strode forward, as comfortable as he always was.When he arrived at the main hall, a man in a purple robe walked up to him who looked fourteen or fifteen years old, and his facial features that had not yet fully grown looked well-behaved and handsome.Seven steps away, the person who came knelt down and saluted: "Brother courtiers see the imperial brother" "Excuse me" Xiao Zhaoye paced forward, "Zhaowen, come to visit the queen mother" "Brother Huihuang, it is exactly" "I am busy with government affairs on weekdays, thanks to you for doing your filial piety in front of the queen mother and finding an opportunity, I have to thank you well" "The imperial brother laughed. ”"Okay, I'll talk about this later" Xiao Zhaoye laughed loudly and patted his brother's shoulder, "Let's go, follow me into the house." ”"Yes" Xiao Zhaowen bowed slightly, keeping a distance of half a step behind the dragon robe.After the ceremony, the mother and son sat down around a two-foot-long round table.There are two plates of delicate pastries and three steaming snow chrysanthemum teas on the table.It was a happy gathering, but Xiao Zhaoye's heart couldn't help but feel lonely.He picked up the teacup casually and took a small sip, gently carrying the moment of alienation."
The emperor has been busy with government affairs recently, how can he remember to visit the mourning family" But in just a few months, from the crown princess of the East Palace to the queen mother of a country, it seems that she can't support such a rapid change, Wang Baoming's face is even more old, with the queen mother's gorgeous clothes, people can't imagine that she is less than forty years old.At this moment, her face was solemn, and she looked awe-inspiring and inviolable.Xiao Zhaoye held the teacup in his hand and smiled lightly naturally: "The meaning of the queen mother's words is only to blame her son for being busy with court affairs recently, and in the future, I will have time to ask the queen mother to stop my son.I also talked to him about it, and I want to thank him well" Wang Baoming still held his face: "The mourning family doesn't have so many thoughts, and the emperor has a lot of hearts." ”"Brother Huang has a lot of opportunities, you should be considerate and considerate of the queen mother."
Xiao Zhaowen was on the side to help.finally couldn't help but bring out a faint smile, Wang Baoming nodded: "Okay, good, understanding is naturally to be considerate" "I'm afraid that the queen mother will say this too early" Xiao Zhaoye raised his eyebrows and said mysteriously, "If even Zhaowen is entangled in government affairs and can't accompany the queen mother, what if" Hearing this, Xiao Zhaowen's eyes flashed a light.Wang Baoming asked quietly: "What does this mean?"
"Zhaowen is not small, I have already made a wishful calculation, and I am ready to use some government affairs to bother him. ”"The imperial brother wants his younger brother to enter politics" "Exactly" Xiao Zhaoye hooked his lips and smiled, lightly hugging his brother's thin shoulder, "Are you interested, if you are willing to spend some time with your mother to deal with government affairs, I'm afraid" Xiao Zhaoye glanced at Wang Baoming, "The mother concubine can't help but let go" "The younger brother is willing to share the worries of the imperial brother" Xiao Zhaowen immediately hugged his fists to show his loyalty."
Cheng Chengcheng" Wang Baoming waved his hand helplessly and sighed, "The mourning family hasn't expressed their position here, you have all discussed it" "The queen mother has agreed" Xiao Zhaoye raised his eyebrows proudly at his younger brother as if his prank was successful."
Agree, the mourning family can't hinder the future of King Xin'an, isn't it," Wang Baoming had an expression of "I can't help it" on his face."
Hahaha" Xiao Zhaoye took a long breath, brought the teacup to his mouth, and rubbed it lightly, as if he suddenly remembered something, "Queen Mother, I remember that when I was a child, I used to drink a kind of herbal tea here with you, with a faint grass fragrance, which smelled very good.It's been missing lately" "Herbal tea, oh, you are talking about mugwort leaf tea, if the emperor wants to drink it, the mourning family will call someone to go", Wang Baoming turned his head and called: "Lan Ju, go to the Tai Hospital to get some dried mugwort leaves" "Yes" Lan Ju promised to retreat."
In the past, didn't the mother's harem always have mugwort leaf tea, why did you have to go to the Tai Hospital to get mugwort leaves," Xiao Zhaoye asked casually."
The mourning family has not drunk mugwort tea for many years, so naturally the palace has not prepared it."
Wang Baoming gently scraped the petals on the tea soup noodles with the lid of the tea bowl."
Why do I have the impression that the queen mother had a soft spot for mugwort leaf tea, do you say it?"
”"I didn't expect you two brothers to be obsessed with the taste of that mugwort leaf tea, and it was not a big deal.However, for a while, I was irritated by the heat and had trouble sleeping, and then I called a doctor to diagnose me.The doctor heard that I drank mugwort leaf tea all the year round, and said that I was a blood fever system, and I should not drink more.So, I changed my habit.At this point, the emperor, the body of the slave has been fine recently" "Queen Lao is worried, and everything is fine with her. ”Xiao Zhaoye's smile calmly concealed the turmoil in his heart."
Well, that's fine.You have to be careful with the first child" Wang Baoming nodded slightly, and then asked, "I heard that the emperor sent the Yang Divine Doctor who healed you to Jingren Palace" Wang Baoming thanked Yang Min for saving his son, and has always been called a "divine doctor"."
Exactly.Doctor Yang has superb medical skills, and his mind is more delicate than others. ”"The divine doctor does things, and the mourning family is naturally relieved."
Wang Baoming paused, his eyes wandered on Xiao Zhaowen's cheeks, and he suddenly slapped his palm, "The queen mother's memory is getting worse and worse, so I only taught Lan Ju to take the mugwort leaves, but I forgot to ask her to take some pine needles and come back to talk about this time, she shouldn't have gone far."
Zhaowen, you run faster and take a trip for your mother. ”"Yes" Xiao Zhaoye frowned slightly, he probably guessed what the queen mother was going to say when Zhaowen was separated.Sure enough, Wang Baoming put the teacup on the table and hurriedly said, "Do you know that it has spread in the palace, even though Doctor Yang Shen's medical skills are outstanding, and he is not comparable to a medical woman, but it is really inappropriate for you to put a man in the harem" "I want to come to the queen mother and have heard a lot of news recently. ”Xiao Zhaoye sighed softly, "Now the government and the opposition are quite restless, and if Anuro gives birth to a son, he will be the crown prince."
How can those who plot rebellion sit idly by, and if there is no reliable person to serve Anu, I will not be at ease after all.This is an expedient measure that I have been thinking about for a long time.What's more, those gossips are pervasive, even if they ask for a pulse every day, it is inevitable that someone will chew on the root of their tongue behind their backs.In this case, I simply made an open and honest decree and ordered Imperial Doctor Yang to stay in Jingren Palace.As for the rumors, I don't care about them anymore. ”"Law Body" Wang Baoming was angry, and evoked the title buried in his memory, "What do you mean to take care of those many three people to become tigers, you are discrediting the royal reputation, why do you have to protect the slave so tightly, she is a smart person, as long as you pay a little attention, in the deep palace, who has no choice but to get her, you can't help but be careful." ”"I have no intention of contradicting the queen mother.It's just that this matter has been decided, please don't blame the queen mother" Xiao Zhaoye scowled, Shi Shiran got up, "My son retired, come back another day to ask for peace" After saying that, Xiao Zhaoye grabbed the door and walked out.He was afraid that if he was one step late, he would be unable to refrain from speaking out against the reputation of the royal family, who could afford to bear the autumn breeze in case the autumn breeze came to his face, he smiled and shook his head: After studying the way of kings for more than ten years, it is still not suitable for this position.He knows how to choose, but he refuses to give up
