three watch drums

As Yan Rushuang said, Su Chan had been lying solidly for five days before he could sit up from the bed. During these five days, there was no need to move a lot, Su Chan could not wait to yell for a long time even turning over.

There was a penetrating wound on his shoulder, and he lost a huge amount of blood, but it was not as heavy as the backlash he suffered in his lungs. He coughed and bleeds in the first few days, and he was at the mercy of others as if he couldn't take care of himself.

Originally, even if Su Chan could not be self-sufficient in things like feeding and changing medicines, there was no shortage of dedicated people in the palace to take care of him, but Xie Changlin insisted on coming by himself. At first, he half hugged him and let Su Chan eat next to him. Spiritual, and the other hand can use a spoon by itself... Xie Changlin still relied on his physical advantage to insist on feeding him, and even summed up a set of fallacies.

"A Chan once fed me dumplings, even if I repay the favor."

What's the matter, how many dumplings have you fed, and it's still not finished after so many days? !

However, after these five days, Su Chan's body recovered by leaps and bounds, and the demon lord had no chance to do anything, and even got sullen because of it.

There may be no magic weapon to save lives in this world, which more or less gave the doctors in the world a way out, but there are not a few who speed up the healing of wounds. Divided according to price, the symptoms outside the ghost market are not cured, while the symptoms in the ghost market are cured. And this is what Yao Guang is hiding in his stomach.

It is a piece of ice that will not melt for a thousand years, and it complements the fireflies that Xie Changlin gave him, but it has only been nine days, and his shoulders are already scabbed and ready to fall off, itching and numb.

All the treasures in the world, as long as they are not consumables, once put into Su Chan’s pocket, he would never take it out again, so no matter whether the pair of jade-carved fireflies are so-called tokens of love, since he has already given one to himself, Su Chan will not take it out again. He accepted it openly and without apology.

As for Su Heng, she has been very busy these days. The origin of the human-faced spider is naturally not humane, but after all, they are some monsters that can hurt people, and there are many important officials in the imperial city, so it is necessary to guard against them, so Zhuo Yuemen babbled a reason, and gave all the scapegoats to Su Chan - saying that after the Ghost Festival, the corpse's breath had not been eliminated, so that such evildoers were born.

Not to mention how much residual corpse energy is needed to condense such a huge spider swarm in three months, there is a real way, the tens of thousands of Yin soldiers can't get close to Su Chan's body, just these leftovers can hurt him To such an extent?

But it just makes people believe it.

Although Zhuo Yuemen looks very frivolous, his behavior is loose, and his clothes are not comfortable to wear, but he has high Taoism skills. Someone has seen him fly clouds and rain, and he can manipulate the good fortune of heaven and earth. The words that come out of this mouth naturally have their prestige .

Because Su Chan was seriously injured this time, even Xu Ziqing calmed down a little bit, saying that he was old and sick, and he stayed at home and didn't see anyone. It was easy for Su Heng's ears to be quiet for a while, but as soon as he retired this morning, Li Ruhai He whispered, "Your Majesty, the old master is waiting for you in the imperial study."

"...He's in the imperial study?" Su Heng's face changed, and his two narrow sword eyebrows frowned. "I didn't inform me beforehand that a minister could pass unimpeded in the harem? It's really daring."

Li Ruhai naturally felt that Xu Ziqing's behavior was very inappropriate, but he knew his identity, no matter how favored a eunuch was, he was just an eunuch, and he was not qualified to say anything to important ministers.

Fortunately, Su Heng saw something deeper through the surface, and said, "Find out who let the old lady Fu into the imperial study... This person can no longer be used, find a reason to send him back to his hometown."

Even a great eunuch like Li Ruhai didn't dare to do what he advocated, and there was someone who only listened to Xu Ziqing's orders and ignored the real emperor of Dachu. How could such foolishness survive?

"Then is your majesty still going to see the old master?" Li Ruhai paced to catch up with Su Heng. The people in front were striding forward, without any intention of stopping and waiting.

"He's all here, how can he be left out in the cold!"

At the entrance of the imperial study room, Su Heng just calmed down and calmed down. Although he was happy not to see him, he also calmed down his anger.

Xu Ziqing stood inside, without even lighting the charcoal basin... The imperial study room is much larger than the entire thatched hut of ordinary people, and there are few strangers, so it can't be kept warm. It's the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, and Su Heng is young and angry Sometimes when it is vigorous, it feels cold into the body, not to mention Xu Ziqing, an old bone.

Although he can't be said to serve the country and the people, the imperial court is a high altar in Xu Ziqing's heart. He has tried his best these years, so even if Su Heng knows that he is getting more and more powerful and relying on the old to sell the old, Xu Ziqing still remains untouched on the surface. Every penny.

"Your Majesty..." Xu Ziqing held his sleeves in front of him, his face didn't look very good, gray and pale, it really looked like he had just suffered a serious illness, and his spirit seemed to be even worse, his eyelids were swollen and his eyes were distracted, and his hair was white He has grown a lot, showing an unusually old appearance.

"As soon as the prince arrived in the palace, and such a big incident happened again, you should let him go to the small border town."

Xu Ziqing suddenly knelt down, and his knee hit the slate floor with a "boom", which made Su Heng feel a little worried about his old cold legs.

"Oh? It turns out that the teacher dragged his sick body and waited in the imperial study for a long time, just to impeach the emperor, really persevering." Su Heng responded indifferently, and she waved back and forth, not even leaving Li Ruhai behind, staring at him coldly. Touching Xu Ziqing's back, he said again, "Teacher has a long-standing grudge, has it reached the point of killing people?"

Hearing this, Xu Ziqing's whole body was shaken, his straight spine was still lying on the ground, and he said in a trembling voice without raising his head, "Your Majesty heard some gossip..."

"Teacher, I am twenty-five years old this year, and I am far from being young and ignorant... I was wise when I was young, lonely and widowed when I was young, and even a gentleman will use any means. Do you really think that such a low-handed means can hide it from me?" Su Heng's whole body He suddenly became fearful and unfriendly, and stopped in front of Xu Ziqing's eyes, and said, "I still respectfully call you teacher, because I still care about the love of the past, this has violated the king's taboo, I hope you will take good care of your feathers, so that you can do it yourself. "

"Your Majesty! I didn't..." Xu Ziqing opened his mouth to argue, the last bit of blood faded from his face, and his cold breath blew on the ground, kicked up a thin layer of dust, and it all went into his own lungs.

"Shut up!" Su Heng was furious, "On the day the imperial brother and the national teacher went to the Jinxiu Palace, if the teacher hadn't come over and suddenly mentioned various matters sponsored by the Tianjian Department at the end of the year, I would not let Eunuch Li pass the decree Call back the national teacher, and the emperor will not fall into the dry well alone..."

"minister……"

"Also, you said you had something to do that day, and you left early without seeing the national teacher. Where did you go and what did you do?!" Su Heng sneered, "The manhole cover was closed by the teacher, right?"

Xu Ziqing crawled on the ground without moving. If it wasn't for his shoulders still shaking up and down, Su Heng would have wondered if his words were too violent, and he actually pissed off the big-tempered and thin-skinned Master Tai Tuo to death.

"Teacher, you have to remember clearly that I have two inverse scales that cannot be touched - Da Chu Jiangshan, and my brother." Su Heng paused, and then sighed softly, "But now, brother If something big happens, I won't argue with the teacher anymore, if you make further progress..."

Su Heng leaned over to Xu Ziqing's ear, and said, "As I said, I will do whatever it takes."

"Okay, get up." Su Heng directly supported Xu Ziqing up in this posture. The elderly old lady Fu was sweating profusely, but her back was still erect, and she stood still without shaking.

"Ahem...His Majesty has indeed grown up, has the talent and ability to govern the country, and I can finally feel at ease." Xu Ziqing smiled wryly, and couldn't tell whether he was really relieved by his old age, or if he was forced to recognize the situation in front of him under pressure. "However, Your Majesty, I have the guts to ask you one more thing... Do you know the reason why I did not spare my reputation and made such a foolish move?"

"To protect the dignity of my great Chu royal family." Su Heng took Xu Ziqing's words lightly, "If it weren't for this, you would have deserved to die the first time I related this matter to you."

"Then His Majesty still..."

"Could it be that in the eyes of the Taifu, all of my Great Chu royal family are idiots who dare to be or not? Or am I really a foolish boy who doesn't know the severity?" Su Heng sighed and shook his head. He really didn't know these things. The so-called "good intentions" are based on how to judge others by oneself, which has caused such a big misunderstanding.

"I don't dare..." At this time Xu Ziqing really gave up the pride he had been holding on to, his shoulders slumped, and he looked old, "It's because I didn't think carefully, I ask you to tell me to return home."

Su Heng laughed back angrily, "Do you want to sue your old age and return home when something happens? Teacher, you really let me down... Even if your talents are not unmatched, you must be one of the best in Dachu. If you resign from the official position and only study in Beijing, it doesn’t take ten years, and you will be full of peaches and plums. What’s more, I believe in your ability to recognize people and educate people, but you just want to leave?”

"Your Majesty..." Xu Ziqing had nothing to say for a moment, and he stood aside with his hands down. After a long time, he sighed with conviction, "I have always regarded Your Majesty as a child. It turns out that time is not forgiving, and I am the only one who is stagnant."

"Teacher, go back and think about it..." Su Heng watched as Xu Ziqing left the imperial study with a lot of worries, the old man finally staggered, just like Pei Changyuan, slightly stooped, and Su Heng didn't lift up when he was far away Looking up at the beam, he said again, "Have you heard enough? Come down."

A golden-red phoenix tail feather fell in response to the sound, and it turned into a human form halfway through. Zhuo Yuemen had a slight smile on his frivolous face, and looked at Su Heng with a look like "my family has a girl who is just growing up".

Su Heng's hair stood on end under his stare, and he didn't want to have another "father" from now on, so he had no choice but to ask first, "Why does the Master of the National Teacher want me?"
