On the wedding night, the substitute princess cured the war king's poison
Chapter 238 Xiao Huai’s life is worse than death
When Xiao Huai woke up, he found that he was wearing a Taoist robe, which was still the outfit of a national master.
He was sitting on a futon with his legs crossed, and there was a whisk in the crook of his arm.
Just as he was about to move, he found that his legs were as stiff as stone.
Thinking back to the scene just before fainting, the conversation between the two people.
Xiao Huai shouted in horror:
"Come quickly, help me..."
Suddenly I found that my throat was so tight that I couldn't make a sound at all.
He couldn't hear anything either.
He was probably poisoned by a poisonous spider, which made him mute and deafened.
"Master, what do you want me to do?"
Two young Taoist priests came forward from behind, asking questions with normal expressions. They seemed not to notice that the imperial master had been replaced at all.
He also couldn't recognize that the person in front of him was Xiao Huai, the Emperor of Yan Kingdom.
Xiao Huai winked at them and gestured for paper and pen to write.
It's a pity that the two Taoist priests turned a blind eye.
One said: "The Imperial Master is tired from meditating. Let's help him go into the inner room to rest."
"Okay, I have informed the public that the Imperial Master needs to retreat to refine elixirs, and no outsiders will come to disturb him for the time being."
So, Xiao Huai was helped up and carried into a dark room.
There is only an alchemy furnace and a simple wooden bed.
Even in those years when he was the prince in the East Palace and lived in seclusion, Xiao Huai had never been so frightened at this moment.
From horror to despair... despair.
At this moment, he extremely hoped that Xiao Ding could return to Kyoto.
Only Xiao Ding can save him!
His fourth brother is the regent. He is brave and unrivaled.
Unfortunately, I was wary of him, but fell into someone else's long-planned trick.
Fortunately, the two Taoist priests did not abuse him, and took good care of his food and daily life.
He didn't quite understand why the Imperial Master and the Liu family didn't kill him, but replaced him with identities?
Could it be that he was also afraid that Xiao Ding would come back and have a backup plan?
I have to live, I can't give up on myself, and I can't take advantage of the adulterer and the adulteress to take away Yanguo from his hands.
***
In the Jinluan Palace, the emperor in dragon robes was listening to the ministers' performance.
But listen more and speak less.
In terms of government affairs, most of the time ministers are left to make their own decisions.
And his eyes always wandered on the faces of the courtiers.
Everyone felt that the emperor seemed a little suspicious today.
After listening to the reports from the ministers, the emperor said: "I will be here early this morning. I will leave the court without incident."
The sentence was very abrupt.
In the past, the emperor would ask with a gentle look: "Who else would like to start the performance?"
Only later will he say that he will withdraw from the court without a memorial.
What happened to the emperor today?
The officials looked at each other and speculated in their minds.
The emperor on the dragon throne was alert and quickly added: "My beloved sir, do you have anything else to report?"
"I am not feeling well today, so I have to leave the court early."
This sentence is even more inappropriate and exposes more errors and omissions.
In the past, when the emperor was ill, he would force himself to be a wise emperor who was courteous and virtuous. He would only care about the health of his ministers and would never say that he had to leave the court early because he was not in good health.
The Minister of Rites came out first to test: "Your Majesty, we are offering homage to the gods during the winter solstice..."
He rambled for a while, while the emperor listened, and gradually impatiently touched the non-existent beard on his chin.
The officials were shocked again.
Although the man on the dragon throne has the same appearance as the emperor, his behavior is completely different.
I didn't notice it when I first came to court, but now I feel that there are many mistakes and omissions.
The emperor succeeded to the throne as the crown prince of the East Palace. He had been taught strict etiquette since childhood and would never behave like this.
Not to mention such weird behavior.
I'm afraid this emperor is a fake, who would be so bold.
Where has the real emperor gone?
In order to confirm his opinion, after the Minister of Rites finished his performance, the minister of Dali Temple came out and asked: "Yesterday, the emperor gave me a test question, but I am so stupid that I couldn't solve it after thinking hard all night."
"I wonder if the emperor can tell me the answer to this question so that I can clear up my confusion?"
The fake emperor was surprised, did this happen yesterday?
He quickly glanced at the eunuch beside him.
The man shook his head slightly.
The emperor calmly said: "Xue Aiqing may have remembered it incorrectly. I did not give you any test questions yesterday. It seems that you are indeed old and frail and are not suitable to continue serving the imperial court. I allow you to retire and return home."
