Funing Hall

Zhao Cong is actually very grateful to Queen Mother Sun. Every time he wanted to do something but couldn't find the ladder, Queen Mother Sun always helped him build the bridge in advance.

Huang Shu and Fan Shiwu were such capable people, but because they were disobedient, Empress Dowager Sun demoted them all out one by one.

Cai Yong is also capable, but Empress Dowager Sun never reused him because of his poor life.

He is short of people, he takes all of them for his own use!

Empress Dowager Sun is also a god-man, so it is not good to relegate Fan Shiwu to somewhere, but to Qinzhou!Qinzhou and Yizhou are both on Guangnan West Road, so close to each other.

There is a saying that goes, not afraid of godly opponents, but pig teammates.

Empress Dowager Sun didn't need teammates at all, she was enough for Zhao Cong to beat her to the ground by herself.

Seeing that Fan Shiwu had also left Tokyo, Zhao Cong knew it was time for him to appear, so he straightened his shirt and went to Baoci Hall.

Since the last time, Empress Dowager Sun has obviously become wary of him, Zhao Cong pretended to be totally ignorant, and smiled innocently as usual: "Conger came to say hello to the empress."

After all, Empress Dowager Sun is also a master of acting, although she was wary, she still helped him up very familiarly, and pulled him to her side to talk.The two cared about each other hypocritically, and Zhao Cong went straight to the point: "Your Majesty, in fact, Cong'er came here today to ask for something."

Empress Dowager Sun smiled: "What does Cong'er ask of your mother? You are the emperor, so you can do whatever you want."

Zhao Cong pursed his lips and smiled shyly: "Cong'er has little business experience, so I have to ask my mother."

"You child, tell me quickly."

"In a few days it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there will be a family banquet in the palace. Cong'er wants to invite Cheng Zhonghou's family into the palace."

Cheng Zhonghou is Zhao Shiqing's husband's family.

Empress Dowager Sun didn't like Zhao Congde's sons and daughters, she frowned slightly after hearing this, and said with a smile: "Since it's a family banquet, why invite people from Cheng Zhonghou's family?"

Zhao Cong also laughed: "After all, it is the family that Shi Qing married. Uncle Wang of Wei County is at such an age, so he naturally wants to see his granddaughter. Cong'er is also thinking about Uncle Wang. What do you think, Madam?" After Zhao Cong finished speaking, he went He looked up at Queen Mother Sun.

Empress Dowager Sun wanted to save face and suffer, she pursed her lips, but clenched her teeth tightly, and finally nodded with a smile.

After Zhao Cong left, Empress Dowager Sun immediately said to Qing Ming: "Let the left and right servants shoot into the palace! Tell the Duke of Yan to enter the palace!"

Qing Ming was taken aback, the sky was already dark, even if it was passed on, she would not be able to enter the palace until tomorrow.

But Empress Dowager Sun stared at her, she lowered her head and immediately went down to deliver the order.

Empress Dowager Sun felt a fire in her heart, which made her very uncomfortable.

Aunt Wang was right about one thing, no matter how insensitive Zhao Cong is, the people behind him are all smart.The blood relationship between her and Zhao Cong is weak, and whether it is Wei Junwang or Zhao Zongning, like Zhao Cong, they are both from the Zhao family and have the same blood flowing.

The Zhao family is the most ruthless, selfish, and indifferent.

For a long time, Zhao Cong naturally only listened to them.

She is confused!

If you really raise Zhao Cong yourself, you can raise Zhao Cong for a lifetime.

When Zhao Cong was still in Baoci Hall, Jixiang came back from outside and walked into the side hall with gentle steps.

As soon as his body disappeared at the entrance of the side hall, he rushed into the study room quickly, and surprised Zhao Shiyi who was painting inside. He was painting the painting for Zhao Cong.He painted extremely meticulously, and it has been nearly a month since he finished the painting.Zhao Cong's birthday is approaching, and now he is thinking about this painting every day, and it is almost finished now.

Zhao Shishi looked up at him dissatisfied.

Ji Xiang's eyes were shining brightly, looking at him, he whispered: "Mr. Wang! Aunt Wang, she made a move!"

Zhao Shishi's expression froze.

Jixiang stretched out his hand and showed Zhao Shishi what was in his palm: "Look."

Zhao Cong picked up the little goji berry from Ji Li's palm. He looked at it carefully for a long time, but he didn't see any difference between the goji berries.

If I had to say something different, there were many candles in the house, and the candlelight illuminated this goji berry, which seemed to be redder and brighter than ordinary goji berries.

Zhao Cong looked at it for a long time, then put the goji berry back into Ji Li's palm.

"How many of these things are there in the auspicious place?"

"The little one went into his room to look for it while he was on vigil. He hid it in the pillow core! He hid a purse full of it!" Ji Li was also a little excited, and finally he caught what was wrong with Ji Xiang.He is a big fool with excellent eyesight. When he was looking for pigeons that had not flown back at night, he walked past Jixiang's house and saw Jixiang's silhouette bent over and sitting by the bed through the window.He felt that Jixiang was making a fuss among the things on the bed, no wonder he couldn't find it!

When Jixiang went to watch the night, he searched carefully, and finally found a pack of wolfberries in the pillow.

Goji berry is such a small thing, a full pack is already a lot.

Zhao Cong thought for a moment, then said to Ji Li: "Tonight, you will stay at my place to watch the night. Tomorrow morning, you will go to the Imperial Medicine Bureau to call Dr. Bai and say that I am ill."

"Huh?" Ji Li opened his mouth stupidly.

"Tomorrow if someone asks you why you are in my inner room, you should say, I called you here to ask about Mr. Xiao Lang."

"Yes!" Ji Li couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't want to, and agreed honestly.

"I know you know about wolfberry, you don't even need to tell Rantao and Fulu."

"Yes!"

"Jixiang has a different heart, you should watch more in the side hall, don't let him hurt the little man. Especially some food, you need to pay special attention to anything that Jixiang presents." Zhao Cong explained again.

"Yes! Little one knows!"

"Bring water, I wash my hands."

Ji Li carefully wrapped the wolfberry in a handkerchief, Zhao Cong took it and put it beside the pillow.

Ji Li got up to get water and a cloth towel, waited for Zhao Cong to wash his hands, and pulled the curtain for him.

He stood energetically in a corner of the room, waiting for the dawn.

Zhao Cong couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

Although I don't know what the effect of the wolfberry is, it is definitely not a good thing.

And Ji Xiang must not be the mastermind, he just obeys orders, who does Ji Xiang listen to?Luckily, Ji Xiang is very smart, now he often goes to the Imperial Pharmacy, dealing with imperial doctors and palace maids, but he really can't find out who he is in contact with.

Thinking about it, Zhao Cong laughed at himself.

From when Jixiang appeared in front of him, to when he followed the imperial doctor to the Imperial Pharmacy, this series of events may have been planned a long time ago.Now, even though he knew that the auspiciousness was suspicious, he couldn't find the root cause for a while.

In vain he claimed to be clever, but was deceived by a young eunuch.

It can be seen that sometimes the smarter and more honest people seem to be more inconsistent.

Fortunately, at present, it seems that Jixiang is only coming for him.

As the emperor, Zhao Cong can't have favorite food, even if he does have favorite food, only Rantao and Fulu know.

But since the beginning of autumn, he has often drank sheep soup, and the Liao Kingdom specially paid a lot of sheep. Everyone in the palace knows this, and this cannot be concealed.

When stewing mutton soup, astragalus and wolfberry are indispensable, and it must be because of this that those people came up with the idea of ​​wolfberry.Who would have thought that goji berry could make a fuss?Zhao Cong didn't expect it anyway, but since there is something wrong with the goji berry, he pretended to be sick, which may satisfy the evil people in the dark.

When they were satisfied and relaxed their vigilance, he could catch the person behind the scenes.

And this time, both intuition and subconsciousness told him that the Empress Dowager Sun did not do this.

If Queen Mother Sun wanted him to die, she would have killed him long ago.

He fainted when he ascended the throne and shared a room with Queen Mother Sun.In fact, he woke up early later, but pretended not to wake up.At that time, his stature had not yet grown up, and he was even thinner than Zhao Shiyi when he first met him. Empress Dowager Sun only needed to pinch his neck lightly, and there would be no more Zhao Cong and no Zhao Zongbao in the world.

But Queen Mother Sun did not.

So for Queen Mother Sun, Zhao Cong's feelings have always been somewhat complicated.

The next day, at the beginning of Mao Shi, before dawn, candlelight suddenly lit up in the inner room of Funing Hall.

An unfamiliar little eunuch rushed out of the main hall in a hurry, startled the four small yellow gates that were guarding the night under the porch, and before they could ask a question, the little eunuch had already rushed outside the Funing Hall.The four little yellow gates were shocked, two of them went to call Fulu and Rantao respectively, and the other two hurried into the hall.

Afterwards, there was a panic in Funing Hall.

Only because His Majesty fell ill.

Zhao Cong didn't sleep all night, he really couldn't sleep, he kept thinking about things.

After thinking about it, it was at the beginning of Mao Shichu, his body could not bear the pain, and now he was doing well, he really looked like he was sick.His face was pale, his lips were black and purple, his eyes were dull, lying on the bed, Zhao Cong deliberately put on an appearance of lovelessness.

Rantao walked in, seeing him like this, her vision froze for an instant, she almost lost her footing, thanks to the two maids behind her supporting her.The tears in Fu Lu's eyes fell instantly, he reached out and wiped away the tears, turned around and ran out.

Knowing that he was going to the Imperial Pharmacy, Rantao took a breath, calmed down, and began to direct the maids and eunuchs to fetch ginseng soup, hot water and cloth towels.She carefully soaked hot water with a cloth towel, and then wiped Zhao Cong's face. Even so, Zhao Cong's face did not change.

"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor will be here soon." Ran Tao whispered.

Seeing her like this, Zhao Cong felt a little distressed, but this time he had to lie to Rantao together.He was actually talking vigorously, but at this moment he could only purse his lips and pull a weak smile at Rantao.

Rantao couldn't bear to turn her head back, her eye circles turned red instantly, she stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, then she turned her head and smiled at Zhao Cong: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, it's all right, there's nothing wrong with it."

Zhao Cong almost cried without being told by her.

When he was young, he was in very bad health, and many times it was even scarier than his current appearance, Rantao always coaxed him like this, as if his body could really be said to be good.At that time, there was no blessing, only dyeing pottery.

For many years, Rantao never said such words to him again.

He couldn't see his own face, but he knew it must be very scary. The last time he came back from outside the palace, he was carried off the carriage, Rantao didn't panic at all.At this moment, Rantao actually burst into tears.

He secretly sighed, Chao Rantao said silently: "It's all right."

Rantao held back tears, and fed some warm water into his mouth with a small spoon.

Fortunately, Doctor Bai rushed over quickly. He ran all the way, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he didn't have time to wipe it off.He stepped forward to look at Zhao Cong, and when he saw Zhao Cong, he felt a "thump" in his heart.The last time he checked His Majesty's pulse, he was obviously fine, why is his complexion so bad today.

He stretched out his hand to take Zhao Cong's pulse, blocking everyone's sight with his body, and when he felt His Majesty's pulse, he felt a "thump" in his heart again.

Everything is as usual!

Other than the slight complexion, the body is still a little weak, there is nothing serious about it!

He boldly glanced at His Majesty, where others could not see, Zhao Cong smiled faintly at him.

The doctor Bai's back was covered with sweat in an instant.

He thought to himself, fortunately he turned to the light and made a good relationship with the people in Funing Hall in time.

Fortunately!fortunately!
