Zhen Guo Princess GL

Chapter 393 The Demon

In the summer weather, a dark cloud floated from nowhere, covering the sun, and the surrounding fields were as dark as night. Wan'er saw it from the room, and hurriedly called the little palace servants to cover the doors and windows. Xu Changsheng came out quickly from the inner room, stopped in front of Wan'er, and said in a very uneven voice: "My lady is awake, let me call you."

Wan'er frowned, and told Xiao Xi, "It's raining, watch them be careful." Seeing Xiao Xi nodded seriously, Fang turned back and went in. When he arrived at the imperial couch, he saw that the emperor had stretched out his hand and supported her. Xu Changshou stood up slowly, and when he saw Wan'er, his brows and eyes widened: "I had a good sleep last night, and when I woke up, I felt comfortable all over, without any discomfort."

Before Wan'er could answer, Xu Changsheng had already expressed his joy and said: "God bless Your Majesty! I will live up to my concubine's longing for day and night, and pray before the Buddha!" ​​He trotted to the emperor's side, grabbed her hand and half-nuggled towards him, Xu Changshou Supporting the emperor, he just bowed slightly and said calmly: "Your Majesty is the reincarnation of Buddha, so you are blessed by God."

The emperor was extremely happy, clapped the hands of the two sisters, and said with a smile: "You two have made great contributions in serving, and I will reward you very much." Looking up to see Wan'er, he smiled slightly, and called out in a low voice: "Wanqing is the hardest worker. "

Wan'er walked over slowly, and the emperor consciously let go of Xu Changshou's hand, and supported Wan'er.Wan'er held the emperor's hand, and saw that the sweat in her palm was less than before, and then looked up, and saw that the blood color had returned to both cheeks and lips, so she tugged at the corners of her mouth: "Although it's healed, it's still good." Rest up for a while, don't be restless." After a pause, he said: "Since Your Majesty is well, Princess Luling's wish has also come, do you want someone to send a message to let her eat and drink again?"

The emperor just woke up like a dream: "She made a wish for me this time. If I don't recover from my illness, she won't eat. Now that I'm cured, I deserve a big reward—I will give you a collar of Awei clothes from Changsheng." , a box of jewelry, three thousand items."

Seeing that she didn't intend to sit down, Wan'er coughed lightly, and helped her to walk inward. The emperor didn't look strange, so she sat back on the edge of the bed with Wan'er, took her hand and said to Xu Changshou: "Servant Changshou The disease is very serious, now that I have recovered, you have contributed a lot, what reward do you want?"

Xu Changshou kowtowed and said, "Since I have entrusted this body to Your Majesty, I have nothing else to ask for. There is only one brother in the countryside, lonely and helpless, please Your Majesty, for the sake of my concubine and sisters, allow him a job."

The emperor smiled and said: "It's easy, just tell Taiping and see if there is any shortage, just give him a sixth-rank real official."

Xu Changshou said: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, whoever you want to reward, once the decree is made, who dares to disobey! Why do you have to tell the princess, it seems that this official is not rewarded by your majesty, but given by the princess."

The emperor frowned, and Wan'er said first: "The country has its own laws and regulations for appointing officials. Below the sixth rank, it should be interpreted and selected by the heavenly officials. If it is above the sixth rank, it will be a hemp paper imperial letter, and the two provinces will review it. Even if it is a special appointment, There is also a reason for the incident. Xu Changshou served the sick, and that is her credit. But her brother has never contributed to His Majesty, and if the imperial decree is issued to appoint an official, I think it is inappropriate."

The emperor changed his color, smiled and said to Xu Changshou: "Even the emperor, but he is not in accordance with the laws of the state. Your brother's affairs should be handled by Taiping." Fearing that she would be wronged, he said in a harmonious voice: "Both of you sisters are the same. If you have made great achievements, each person will give you thousands of pieces, and you will also give you a purple collar, Xu Pei's silver turtle bag, a daily ceremonial guard, and the same three grades."

Xu Changshou couldn't tell anymore, and retreated silently. The emperor glanced at Wan'er with a smile, took her hand, put it in his palm, slightly closed Wan'er's hand with both hands, and squinted for a long time. , as if he wanted to say a lot, but he could only say, "You've lost weight."

Wan'er didn't say a word, just knelt down, and used both hands to uncover the emperor's lower garment. The emperor didn't stop him for a while, so he had to let her see his legs. At first glance, there was nothing unusual about the legs, they were just a pair of ordinary and weak. The old woman's legs are just better maintained. They don't look that old yet. If you look closely, you can see two scars left by the sores, one big and one small, both on the right thigh, near the knee. At the same place, Wan'er stroked the scar with her hand, then covered the emperor's clothes back, knelt down, bowed her head and said: "Your Majesty is ill, but this concubine is unable to serve him personally. It is my fault to serve him personally. I beg you." His Majesty punishes."

The emperor laughed and said: "You are in front of me every day, and you are responsible for all the daily decoctions. This is not worth the effort, so what should I do?" Lowered down, reached out to hold Wan'er up: "You are nothing more than blaming me for ignoring you these days. But think about it, I have a headache, a fever, and a bad complexion, and I have this nasty thing growing on my leg... In the middle of the speech, he didn't want to continue, so he said: "What about Taiping? She has worked hard these days, let her go back and have a rest."

Wan'er said: "The king of Zhou came to take her place in the morning, and he was sent to the side hall to rest. If your majesty wants to see her, the concubine will call for her."

The emperor waved his hand and said: "No need." As soon as the words were finished, the people in front came to report: "The King of Zhou and Princess Changle heard that His Majesty woke up, and they are outside asking how he is."

Wan'er looked at the emperor, the emperor was in a very good mood, and ordered someone to call in, and when she saw that the pair of sisters and brothers were all haggard and thin, their expressions became more pleasant, and she called out with a smile, and said a few words of comfort, because she saw Princess Changle was happy. Very tired, he smiled softly: "The medicine Zhang Wenzhong used is very effective. I will recover after taking it. The two of you describe the damage. You can also ask him to treat you for a while, especially Taiping. It is very worthy of someone to take care of it—— —It’s a pity that Master Hu refuses to stay in the palace, otherwise if he is given another pill, he will surely heal faster.”

Wan'er glanced lightly at Princess Changle, the princess understood, stepped forward, bowed and said, "I have something to report to Mommy."

The emperor looked at her suspiciously, raised his hand slightly, and said, "Speak."

Princess Changle knelt down one step, and said: "Returning to Auntie, the monk Hu Chao refused to do alchemy for Auntie, not because he said that he should practice meticulously and perform great merit, but because he...intimidated him. "

The emperor frowned in astonishment: "Intimidation?"

Princess Changle nodded, and walked close to the emperor on her knees: "Auntie has not been taking the golden elixir for a long time, but she got sick. My son was suspicious, so I tried to ask the elixir formula first, but Hu Chao refused to give it, so my son asked about it." Ming Dantong learned that there were lead, mercury, and gold in the elixir, so he imitated the elixir given by his aunt, and made two identical gold elixirs, and tested them in front of Hu Chao with a poodle that was raised at home. Lead, mercury and other substances were also put in the pill, and the dog died within a few moments after swallowing it. My son threatened him with this, saying that if something happens to His Majesty, he must be cut into pieces and then put into a frying pan. He…was frightened for a while, so he revealed his true feelings. He was originally a refugee who lost his land. He placed orders in temples to beg for food. , to treat minor illnesses for the local people. Gradually, he gained some fame because he was the only one who knew medical skills in a hundred miles away. After listening to Aniang looking for elixir everywhere, he went to the capital to cast a stab. The alchemy he made before was actually only himself. According to the warming and tonic formula randomly prepared by herbs, it was synthesized by adding gold, silver, lead and mercury, and the precious things of the Dan family. This was interrogated by Saburo and his companions, and the testimonials are here. I ask my mother to check it out."

The emperor's face gradually turned blue: "But the alchemy he made has already been tried by someone else, and the person has been fine so far."

Wan'er turned around and kowtowed, and said softly: "Poison can be slowed down, and Princess Changle suspects that gold and silver are the same, so she asked Ming Dan Fang, and someone prepared a similar medicine, feeding cats and dogs every day, concubine and congratulations." Lou Shanggong and others are all witnesses, His Majesty has been unable to get up since he descended to Songyue Mountain, and it has been half a month now, and as of this morning, all the cats and dogs that were fed have all died one after another."

Princess Changle also paused and said: "My son also did an experiment, using only gold, silver, copper, iron, lead, mercury, etc., choosing a little powder, feeding cats and dogs every day, and it has been three months so far. Among them, none of the hundred and twenty animals survived, and before they died, all four limbs and backs were covered with sores and carbuncles. It was tested by the imperial physician, and the imperial physician thought that all these animals had a little poison, such as the heartbroken grass, which was violent in nature and could not be tolerated. It is easy to enter pills and medicines. All experiments have been examined by imperial physicians and internal eunuchs, and the cause and effect of the front and back have this chapter." Holding the memorial in his hand, he presented it to the imperial court, and the emperor took it with trembling hands, only glanced at it, then threw it aside, and turned his head to ask Wan'er: "You knew about this earlier?"

Wan'er leaned over and said, "I only heard about it when the princess fed cats and dogs with golden pills."

The emperor didn't lose his temper as Wan'er or Princess Changle expected, but smiled wryly, and waved to Princess Changle: "You've done a good job. I know your filial piety, let's go down."

Princess Changle and King Zhou looked at each other and went out quietly.Wan'er looked at the emperor who was slumped on the edge of the bed, and couldn't help reaching out her hand to touch her. She wanted to call her "Your Majesty", but after thinking about it, she said, "Qiniang?" Introduced, Princess Changle cleverly didn't mention a word, but everyone knew about it, and the emperor would never forget it. The silence for a while, maybe it was pushing the original intention of Wu Chengsi?Regardless of whether the emperor is willing to have this happen or not, Princess Changle has already won. Wu Chengsi will definitely lose his sacred heart after this.

Wan'er gently raised her head to look at the emperor, after a long illness, she was forced to confine herself to meditation during her illness. Hand: "I wanted to take the golden pill with you and go to immortality together." He raised his eyes sideways and looked directly at Wan'er: "But you... seem unwilling."
