III Jiangshan

When Yuan Youqi woke up completely, it was two days later.

During these two days, Yuan Youqi sometimes understood, sometimes confused, his body was exhausted as if he couldn't get enough sleep.

From the moment she fell down, Lian Xiang didn't get any rest, let alone relax at all. She tried her best to keep her body. An emergency that almost killed her, In the end, under Lian Xiang's skillful hands, it evaporated through intermittent high heat.

In the past two days, Yuan Youqi vaguely felt that there was a stranger's breath on the side of the couch, as well as a very familiar smell, that feeling was very subtle.

She opened her eyes, staring at the embroidered patterns on the account, trying to recall in her mind.

However, I can only think of a ball of paste, and think about myself so much that my brain hurts.

"Tang Xi?" Yuan Youqi called out, his voice hoarse.

"Your Majesty! You are awake!" Seeing the sober emperor, Tang Xi almost burst into tears.

Yuan Youqi ordered him to roll up the bed curtain, tilt his head to look at the sky outside the window, "What time is it?"

"It's just passed Shen Shi." Tang Xi replied.

Seeing Yuan Youqi straightened his body and wanted to get up, Tang Xi hurriedly stopped him, "You're still weak!"

"I'm fine!" Yuan Youqi refused, propped up and sat cross-legged on the couch.

She lowered her eyes and thought for a while: "How long have I been asleep?"

"Two whole days! I scared the slaves to death!" Tang Xi still had lingering fears in his heart.

Yuan Youqi pursed his dry lips: "How about the previous dynasty?"

Tang Xi knew that people who had had a high fever must be very thirsty, so he ordered the maid to serve tea with a wink, and replied: "I took a rest yesterday, and the queen mother said that starting today, your majesty will leave the court to respect the king's death." Three days, the first day has passed."

Yuan Youqi frowned lightly, the courtiers would know about King Jing's death sooner or later, and there was no need to hide it.After resting for a day like this, and then stopping for a few more days, I can cope with this sudden illness.

"Where is the queen mother?" Yuan Youqi asked again.

"The Empress Dowager has been visiting the Chongzhen Pavilion to pray for His Majesty every day during the Shenshi period. I think she is there now." Tang Xi said.

Yuan Youqi felt a little bitter in his heart.Chongzhen Pavilion is the place where the Taoist ancestors of the Three Qing Dynasty are enshrined in the palace. It is usually there that the nobles in the harem worship and burn incense.

Xiao thought about the scene of Empress Dowager Wei kneeling in front of the statue of the Taoist ancestor of the Sanqing, praying devoutly for herself, and Yuan Youqi felt even more astringent in her heart.

After drinking the hot tea served by the maid, she felt that her throat was much more comfortable, and her spirits were refreshed, and the discomfort from the sweat all over her body came to the fore.

He looked down at himself, he was still wearing the same clothes as when he fell ill that day, and he was sweating profusely again, no wonder he didn't feel uncomfortable.

"I want to change clothes." Yuan Youqi said.

Tang Xi was used to serving her, and he knew her habits very well, so he had already prepared for her.

Si Shi Gong'e brought clean clothes and crowns inside, but was still sent away by Yuan Youqi.

"Your Majesty, you are probably feeling unwell right now, so let the servants help you change your clothes." Tang Xi asked worriedly.

But he was deterred by Yuan Youqi's cold eyes: "What outsiders have come to see me these two days!"

Tang Xi's legs went limp from her stare, and he stumbled: "Not at all...not at all!"

Yuan Youqi lifted up the bed curtain and the brocade quilt, not knowing what he was looking for.

Tang Xi couldn't understand, but he was beating drums in his heart.

"Really?" Yuan Youqi turned to Tang Xi again and said in a deep voice.

Tang Xi couldn't help shaking, feeling that this look was more frightening than the one just now.

If he said "outsider", he thought of that person first.But that one came at a strange time, with the queen mother in between, Tang Xi didn't dare to poke Lou Zi rashly.

There was rolling in his throat, Tang Xi avoided the seriousness and said, "It's the real Yuanling from Yunxuguan who came to see His Majesty..."

Master?

Yuan Youqi's brows did not relax because of this, and asked: "Only Master?"

"And...there is a nephew brought by the real person..."

Tang Xi then roughly described what he had seen about the real Yuan Ling and Dao Jing and his party.

After hearing this, Yuan Youqi's eyes darkened even more.

"You go out and let Shao'an prepare, and leave the palace in a while!" Yuan Youqi thought for a while and said, "No one is allowed to reveal the news of my waking up, otherwise, I only ask you!"

Tang Xi was no less than being struck by a thunderbolt. His face was bitter, and he wanted to call out to his ancestors: "You have a strong body... If the Queen Mother knows, slaves, slaves..."

Yuan Youqi's eyes stood up sharply: "Do you dare to resist the order?"

dare not!Tang Xixin said.

But if the Empress Dowager found out, the emperor ran out of the palace after waking up, and deliberately concealed it, would the servants in front of the imperial court escape punishment?

"I will protect you! The queen mother will not do anything to you!" Yuan Youqi has already seen through his thoughts, "If you resist the order, I will not spare you right now!"

The corner of Tang Xi's mouth drooped and wept.

"Hurry up and deliver the decree!" Yuan Youqi shouted at him.

Tang Xi had no choice but to run out quickly to give orders.

A group of people quietly left the palace in micro-clothes, and left the city at high speed. By the time Yun Xuguan came into view, it was almost the same hour.

Yuan Youqi beat the horse and rushed to the front. The horse was whipped several times by her, and its hooves flew up, running faster and faster.Tang Xi, Liang Shaoan, and several master guards followed closely behind.

Tang Xi's viscera twitched on horseback, he and Liang Shao'an looked at each other, they both felt that the emperor was not like him, how could his body withstand such a toss?What the hell is it? As for making the emperor panic like this, even the empress dowager won't let him know?

Both of them thought of a possibility at the same time, but they didn't dare to think about it any further——

The king of a country, for the sake of a folk girl, doesn't care.If this is known by the adults in the court, it will be fine!

When Yuan Youqi heard what Tang Xi said about Dao Jing's behavior, he suddenly understood who Dao Jing was, and his heart felt as uncomfortable as cooking oil.

Although she was chaotic and unconscious, that breath, that silent hand caressing her cheek were all familiar, extremely familiar!

She would rather disguise herself and enter the palace to peek at herself, would rather hide in An Guogong's mansion and look at herself quietly than meet herself face to face!

Yuan Youqi just wanted to ask Mochi face to face: why?

At this moment, Yuan Youqi's mind was boiling hot, and there was still a wave of unsteady panic: Where is the silk handkerchief that once belonged to Gu Heng?Could it be that she came into the palace and took it from her hand?

When I have a high fever, my brain can't distinguish between reality and fantasy, and the time before and after is also blurred.Yuan Youqi vaguely felt that someone had said to him "let it go", as if he was still coaxing him, and then seemed to take away the silk handkerchief...

If Mochi took away the silk handkerchief, would there be nothing in the palace for her to miss and miss?

Yuan Youqi's mind was roaring and chaotic.She is extremely regretful at this moment, why did she give away the purse that day!

In fact, the purpose of the purse she sent that day was to let Mochi know what she was thinking about, and to tell Mochi that he was waiting for her and came to find him with that purse.

In order to prevent Mochi from being bullied, even the purple jade pendant, which represents the supreme authority of the emperor, was given away without hesitation.

Could it be that I thought I was wrong?

The tacit understanding between Yuan Youqi and Mochi that she had been sure of once wavered unconfidently.

Finally galloping to the gate of Yunxuguan Mountain, Yuan Youqi jumped off the horse and threw the reins to Tang Xi behind him, regardless of the greetings from the Zhike Taoist in front of the gate, he rushed forward.

Suddenly, there was a yelling of a carriage driving in my ear.

Yuan Youqi felt something in his heart, he stopped suddenly, and turned his head to look back.

An ordinary blue silk one-horse carriage rumbled away from sight.The driver was an ordinary middle-aged driver.

Yuan Youqi stared at the carriage of the carriage, unable to look away, a strange feeling crossed his mind, and he had the urge to catch up with that carriage.

It wasn't until the carriage turned around the col and disappeared that Yuan Youqi came back to his senses, turned around and walked in quickly.

Master Yuan Ling had just presided over a ceremony to pray for blessings, and he hadn't had time to change out of his ceremonial attire, so seeing Yuan Youqi was also extremely unexpected.

She has a special status as a disciple, and she must not be known to outsiders who have nothing to do with her, so she hurriedly led Yuan Youqi to her room.

Liang Shao'an and all the guards had already dispersed among the pilgrims to be on guard, while Tang Xi carefully stood outside the door, waiting for orders at any time.

Yuan Youqi didn't care to take a sip of the tea served by the waiter, and when the waiter closed the door and pushed out, he cut to the chase and asked, "Master, is she here with you?"

"Her?" Master Yuan Ling raised his eyebrows and looked back.

"Master knows who I'm talking about!" Yuan Youqi gritted his teeth.

"Not here!" Master Yuanling replied concisely.

Yuan Youqi was suffocated, his face turned pale, and he stood up abruptly: "I believe in Master, I hope Master didn't lie to me!"

After all, turn around and leave.

"Stop!" Master Yuan Ling stopped Yuan Youqi.

Yuan Youqi turned his back to her, his spine was tense, looking like he would explode at any time.

Seeing her like this, Master Yuanling didn't feel distressed. He secretly scolded his tortured senior sister for what evil he had done, but he scolded bluntly: "For a woman, does your majesty even sacrifice your own body?" Don’t want it? Don’t even want the world?”

"Master taught me, forgive me for not having time to listen now! If Master still wants to teach me, I will come to accept it at another time!" Yuan Youqi said, and walked away again.

Before her fingers reached the closed door, she was nailed to the spot by a sentence from Yuan Ling: "Just leave in such a hurry? Don't even want what she left you?"

Yuan Youqi suddenly turned around, "What did she leave behind?"

Master Yuanling rolled his eyes secretly, while slandering his senior sister in his heart, while secretly scolding his apprentice for being hopeless.

She took out a letter from her closet, threw it into Yuan Youqi's arms, and said impatiently, "Look for yourself!"

Yuan Youqi clutched the letter, his hands trembling, his throat was so dry——

She flipped through the envelope twice, but it was blank and contained nothing.

So she impatiently shook out the letter paper inside, and after only one glance, she stared at Master Yuanling dumbfounded.

Real Yuan Ling returned blankly with a glance: "Don't look at me! I don't know what she wrote!"
