Just when I was about to start a long story, I suddenly found a small square ceramic bottle in the corner of Zunhuang's couch. The lid of the porcelain bottle was open, and there was a silvery white light shining inside.I hesitated for a moment, but still dared to ask: "Your Majesty, what is in that porcelain vase behind you?"

Zunhuang was a little confused by the topic I changed, he stepped back and leaned on the back of the couch, his eyes were also on the porcelain bottle, and he pointed in confusion: "You are asking about this thing?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and picked up the bottle with some difficulty. Judging from the strength, the bottle was small but heavy. I took it closer and took a closer look. Qi Shanbei’s words that came back from hunting that day slowly came to mind,’ Xiang Shijie, the eldest son of Zhong Bogong's family, spent a lot of money in the imperial city recently to find something. He heard that this thing is like water, it will scatter on the ground, and when gathered together, it will form a ball. '

I took a deep breath, and without waiting for the emperor to speak, I rushed out of the door with the porcelain vase, found a place under a tree and dug a pit to bury it, and hurriedly returned to the main hall to report: "Your Majesty, what is in the porcelain vase Do you carry things with you all the time? Where did it come from?"

The emperor really didn't understand my actions, looked at me inexplicably, frowned slightly and recalled: "It's been a while, Concubine Du Gui went to the Taoist temple to pray for many days, and sincerely influenced people who have attained the Tao. Rare and rare...cough cough cough..."

Strange, this thing came from Concubine Du Gui instead of Xiang Shijie?But there is one thing that I understand, the thing in the porcelain bottle is obviously from the mercury, it’s no wonder that I don’t get sick if I carry it around every day, no wonder the medical officer can’t do anything, this is not an ordinary disease, but heavy metal poisoning.I boldly begged: "Your Majesty, don't keep this thing by your side."

"What do you mean?"

"I am not from Daxuan, Your Majesty should know. In the country I live in, this thing is called 'mercury'. It is not a rare thing. If you keep it by your side every day, it will only make your body It's getting worse and worse, I've already buried this thing under the tree outside the main hall, Your Majesty can cultivate quietly, maybe your health will get better in a few days."

Zunhuang squinted his eyes and looked at me suspiciously: "You mean, that thing is an ominous thing?"

"The state of 'mercury' is similar to water, and its quality is like gold and silver. It is easy to evaporate when exposed to the air, and it will cause great harm to the human body. Your Majesty carries it with you every day, and poisoning will occur after a long time. I saw that His Majesty's teeth were bleeding seriously, and he was exhausted, physically weak and mentally ill. The damage that you inhaled it unintentionally would cause unimaginable damage to the internal organs. In addition, the weather turned cold, and the medical officers could not prescribe the right medicine to aggravate the condition. Coughing endlessly."

"Are you sure what you said is true? Defamation and framing a noble concubine is a felony."

There was a hint of anger on Zunhuang's face, and I replied truthfully: "Esprit dare not make a complete conclusion, but the possibility is extremely high. I will write a diet prescription for your majesty, and your majesty can eat three meals a day on time. But diet is just Auxiliary effect, as for how to use medicine to detoxify, Esprit does not know in detail, Your Majesty, take care of yourself, try as much as possible, diet therapy has no side effects and no harm."

ah!My respectable chemistry teacher, the chemical periodic table, molecular formulas, etc. that you forced me to memorize all those years ago have finally worked!As I said that, I studied the ink and picked up the pen to write the prescription by myself, and popularized science knowledge while writing: "Your Majesty needs to drink a lot of mung bean soup or ground soybean juice every day, three meals a day with egg whites, and all ingredients must not be eaten. With salt, these foods are great in detoxification."

After handing over the prescription, Zunhuang looked at my crooked handwriting, and decided to give it a try: "Since Ji Gongdu wants to find out, Zun should give it a try. Closer to home, you haven't answered my question yet."

I recalled Zunhuang's previous question, organized my words and said slowly: "After your majesty is sick, the whole government and the public will be temporarily taken care of by the eldest prince, but when it comes to personal administration, the eldest prince cannot easily handle it all at once. The biggest one is Zhong Bogong. It is understandable that the eldest prince relies on him to gain a firm foothold, but Esprit has doubts. Is this really good?

No matter what country or dynasty, the most fearful thing is that the powerful ministers will respect the power. The world respects the emperor, and the people of the Li people respect the emperor.Your Majesty is a Mingjun, and you can clearly see the development of the current situation in the government and the opposition. Otherwise, today, you would not accept the second princess as the Princess Jianguo. However, Sijie dared to ask His Majesty for something. "

My analysis made Zun Huang satisfied, he nodded: "What do you want?"

"In the future, in the government and the opposition, if someone deliberately makes things difficult for the second princess, can Esprit seek a guarantee for the princess to live and work?"

"Why are you so sure that Qin'er will be in power because someone will deliberately make things difficult for you?"

"Today His Majesty asked the princess to supervise the country, and the first person to stand up to refute it was Zhong Bogong. It seems that there is no problem with this move. After all, the princess has never participated in the discussion of politics, but His Majesty's insistence on his decision is still against Zhong Bogong. My heart, Sijie does not mean that the person who will make things difficult for His Highness in the future must be Uncle Zhong, but once there is a disagreement, how many people can stand behind His Highness? Isolate and helpless, isn't the position of supervising the country just a vain thing?"

"Then what protection do you want for Qin'er? Zun thinks that it is a good choice for Qin'er to marry the eldest son of Duke Zhong's family."

After wasting so much talk, I finally brought the topic to this point. Yes, this is exactly what I want to say: "If Your Majesty strongly recommends this move, Esprit will be the first to stand up against it." people."

Zunhuang frowned when he heard my words, thought for a moment and asked: "Ji Sijie, are you interested in Qin'er?"

My god, can you stop asking such a private topic? It's true that I'm interested in her. It's another thing to stop you from referring to her and Xiang Shijie. Am I this kind of villain?I smiled with shame: "Your Majesty suddenly made a joke about Esprit. I am a courtier to His Highness the Second Princess, so I dare not have the slightest thing."

"Then why did you stop it?"

"Your Majesty, do you still remember that day when I reported the tragic death of Miss Hanyu?"

When mentioning Hanlu, Zunhuang's resolute expression changed a little, he stroked his beard and asked: "What does this have to do with Hanlian's death?"

"The person who wantonly abused, humiliated, and sent him to his tragic death is Xiang Shijie."

What I said is very simple, and I also understand that when I say this sentence, I may cause a serious crime. As expected, Zunhuang was furious and slapped the table hard: "Ji Sijie!"

This roar made me fall to my knees: "What I said is not fabricated, if your Majesty doesn't believe it, there is someone who can testify for me."

"Who?"

"Ten princes."

"How old is Xiao'er, who would believe Tong Wuji's words to be true? In less than a stick of incense, you first doubted Concubine Du Gui, criticized Zhong Bogong, and now accuse Xiang Shijie. What good will it do you to make countless enemies?"

"Everyone in the world is drunk and I am sober alone. Honest words are good for deeds. I dare to say that life and death must be ignored. Your Majesty believes whether you believe it or not. You should see it in your eyes. Your Majesty is a king. He sees all directions and listens to six ways. Which is right and which is wrong There are punishments. I am a courtier, and I have to answer questions and talk about things. If you make a false accusation, how can Sijie say it outright? The death of Hanyu is well known in Chunsheng Building. If your majesty still does not believe it, you can go there to collect evidence and implement it. , If Esprit lied a little bit, I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."

"Speaking of it, your intention is to tell the respect not to marry Qin'er and Young Master Xiang."

"exactly."

"I will not discuss this matter for the time being. What you say today needs to be considered carefully. Ji Sijie, I appreciate your daring to speak out and do it. You will see everything about river governance. Don't let down your trust in you, but you are reckless in the court Doing things will only ruin your bright future. The art of weighing is not only to see how much weight the enemy has established, but also to see whether you can resist its harm, which is even better. If you are exhausted, you can step back .”

"I will retire first."

Turned around and left, before I took two steps, the emperor suddenly stopped me again: "Ji Sijie, I want to ask you, is the one above the court hall a deer or a horse?"

"horse."

Seeing my answer without hesitation, Zun Huang raised his hand in satisfaction and waved me to leave. I stepped forward and left the Longhe Palace. The weather is rare today. I looked up at the cloudless sky and smiled comfortably .For the time being, Tantai Qin doesn't have to think about getting married. There's only so much I can do for her, and I really did my best.

When I was about to go back to Chuanggong Pavilion, Tantaiyang jumped out from behind the stone pillar by the corridor in a weird way: "Ji Sijie!"

I was startled, and hurriedly backed away and exclaimed: "Oh, people are so scary!"

"Well, Ji Sijie, how dare you be rude to me!"

Tantai Yang pretended to be angry, and even stomped her feet, I stared at her helplessly: "Your Highness, what do you want from me?"

"It's rare to see you at Emperor Father's place today. I said last time that if you dare to hide, I will..."

"His Royal Highness will give me a good look, right?"

"You still remember! Do you have any important matters to deal with? If not, then follow me to a place."

This girl, Tantaiyang, always loves to touch me, she will lean against me without paying attention, either pulling my arm or holding my arm.Ah hey, can you be more reserved?You can't imitate your sister, you will be gossiped by others if you behave frivolously!I pushed and pushed and finally saved my arm from this girl's clutches: "There is nothing important, where can I go with your highness?"

"Didn't the father already give an order to the tenth younger brother's palace? I figured out that there is an empty courtyard next to the bedroom, which is bigger than my bedroom. It is not too late. I have to go to the Zongqin Pavilion to report. Today So I assigned the palace so that the tenth younger brother can live in it, and besides, you are now Jin Nanhou and you have to live in the palace, so we will be neighbors in the future!"

God!forgive me!This is doing something!To be Tantaiyang's neighbor, do you want me to die?

"This matter...Let the clan pavilion arrange it on its own...The tenth prince and I are not in a hurry, we can stay with the second princess temporarily, and it won't be too late to move in after it's sorted out."

Seeing my evasion, Tantai Yang pursed her mouth angrily: "I am kind enough to help you but you don't appreciate it, you just despise me!"

I gritted my teeth and waved my hands hastily: "I don't dare, it's okay, I'll go with you, don't cry! Don't cry!!! I beg you!"

"Hmph, you're pretty smart."

Looking at Tantai Yang's face that changed every three seconds, I stood there in a daze and said the lyrics of "Actor": "Be simple, the way of speaking is simple."
