Three anecdotes

Cardinal Jin tried to move his already stiff legs, but he couldn't exert any strength. Yun Shu brought him a soup bowl to ask him to take medicine, but he just took a sip and refused to take it. A medicine jar."

Yun Shu held the medicine bowl, "My servant doesn't know either, but the emperor ordered me to bring it to you when I wake up."

"It's the medicine Chu Yiqing gave me to recuperate my body. With my current appearance, there is nothing worth recuperating. Take it away." Then, Shang Chengbi was not around, how could he be so proud to let others help him behind the screen.

"The emperor specifically told you to drink it as soon as you wake up. You haven't taken the medicine Mr. Chu prepared for several days. Now that you are weak, it's time to take care of it." Yun Shu carefully advised him.

Cardinal Jin just closed his eyes.

A young eunuch named Xiao Shunzi who was accompanying him was very clever. Seeing that Cardinal Jin refused to take medicine, he quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, poor servants, the emperor has told you that if you don't take medicine, you will have to take the medicine." Miss Shu dragged her out and beat her to death."

Cardinal Jin suddenly opened his eyes, but when he was about to scold, his breath was stuck in his lung cavity, and it took him a while to get over it. Yun Shu glared at Xiao Shunzi fiercely, but Xiao Shunzi lowered his head and said nothing. Cardinal Jin glanced at Yun Shu, "Bring it!"

"My son—" Yun Shu called him in a low voice.

Cardinal Jin raised his voice, "Cheng Kang!" Cheng Kang was the eunuch commander who accompanied Shang Chengbi, and now Shang Chengbi brought Wang Chuanxi with him to court, and specially left Cheng Kang to look after Cardinal Jin.

"Master Hou ordered." Cheng Kang bowed in.

"Go and call him." Cardinal Jin ordered after swallowing a mouthful of medicine.

Cheng Kang could only pretend to be confused, "Who does Lord Hou want to see, I will announce it to you, it's just that you are not in good health now—"

"Shang Chengbi! Call him here!" Cardinal Jin really lost his temper. He only had one right hand to move, but he threw the medicine bowl to the ground.

As soon as he called Shang Chengbi's name, everyone in the room hurriedly knelt down, and Cheng Kang kowtowed repeatedly, "Master Hou, calm down, Lord Hou, calm down."

"Tell him to come see me, and say that I'm very bored, and I can't lie down without him." Only then was Cardinal Jin supported by Yun Shu.

"Yes, yes." Cheng Kang hurriedly agreed, and hurriedly got up to go.

Cardinal Jin snorted coldly, "Tell him, if you don't come now, don't come again in the future!"

Cardinal Jin has always been a face-saving person. Although everyone knows about the gossip between him and Shang Chengbi, he himself is not willing to publicize it. It is really too much to be so frivolous now.For a moment, everyone in Qifeng Pavilion was in danger, fearing that this cold-faced and dark-handed Lord Hou would come up with some tricks to disturb others, so everyone kept silent.

Cardinal Jin asked Yun Shu, "Where are the clouds and flowers blooming?"

Yun Shu said, "Hua Luo said something went wrong at the bank, so she asked the two of them to come over."

"What are you two doing! Tell them to throw away their helmets and armor, throw their halberds into the sand, and kill anyone who dares to make trouble!" Cardinal Jin said coldly.

"Yes." Yun Shu didn't dare to argue, but just agreed.

"When will Chu Yiqing come?" Cardinal Jin asked again.

"The emperor has already sent an urgent document, and he has already ordered Chen Sha to pick it up. It must arrive within three days at the latest and five days at the latest." Yun Shu replied.

Cardinal Jin didn't speak any more, just lay down sullenly, and after a while, Shang Chengbi came, "What's the matter, call me over in a hurry, the court is making a big fuss over your father's honor Kaijiao, if you call me like that, I will be scolded by the officials for several days again."

Cardinal Jin bit his lip, but didn't speak. Shang Chengbi carefully nodded his lips, "Why is it bubbling again? I'm so angry. I'm still getting angry these days." When he said this, he swept his eyes across the surroundings The person who served, "How do you serve! You don't want to live anymore, do you?"

Cardinal Jin glared at him, "Why are you venting anger with irrelevant people again? Let me ask you, did you say that I dragged Yun Shu out and beat him to death without taking the medicine?"

Shang Chengbi smiled, "So it's because of this, and it's worth getting angry about. I'm just saying it casually."

Cardinal Jin said, "Who knows if you said it casually, you are not joking, there are only a few people around me—"

"Okay, okay, what's the fuss about this matter, I'm going to issue a gold medal to avoid death, and just keep these few people around you to serve you well, no one is allowed to move, okay?" Shang Chengbi sat beside him.

Cardinal Jin then leaned on him, "Don't go to court, I'm bored, come and accompany me."

"Okay." Shang Chengbi pulled the quilt for him, and Xiao Shunzi quickly delivered a medicine bowl, "I'll feed you while it's still cold."

Cardinal Jin turned his head away, and Shang Chengbi teased him like a child, "Ah——open your mouth, how can you get better if you don't take medicine?"

Cardinal Jin glanced at him, "As long as you beat me well, even if you don't take medicine, you will be in great health." Even though he said so, he still opened his mouth and held the spoon in his mouth.

"Your Majesty, Lady Lu of Yikun Palace is not well, and I would like to invite you over." Shang Chengbi was being poked by Cardinal Jin before he opened his mouth, and Cheng Kang started talking back and forth.

Shang Chengbi's favor for the Lu family is all on the child, and now that the child is gone, he can't help but hate the house, and he doesn't even want to hear his name, "I didn't see that I was busy, so I went to the imperial doctor when I was not healthy. There is no need to go back and forth about the matter of the palace!"

The little eunuchs on the ground were all taken aback. This empress Lu was such a noble family back then. She became a noble concubine in a single leap from a small talent. No more, everyone thought that the Emperor would pity her for a while, but Shang Chengbi didn't care about it at all.

Cardinal Jin frowned, and Shang Chengbi asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Cardinal Jin said, "You used to be so kind to her, but now—"

Shang Chengbi smiled, "You are just looking for trouble for yourself these few days, how does she compare with you, we will never be separated again in this life, you obediently take medicine and take good care of your wounds, since I promised Xu When your Jin family worships their ancestors, you have to do so yourself. By the way, Chonghua, I heard that the marriage of Chu people is very interesting. When we arrive in Chu, we will ask your parents and clan members to testify that we will also have a marriage. How about it? "

Cardinal Jin glared at him, "Do you think Daliang's censor is too idle, or do you think it's an honor for my parents to have such a son. I still miss Xiang Yu and refuse to cross Jiangdong. I don't want to go back in my life."

Shang Chengbi hugged him, "Your temper is still so weird, as long as you don't argue with me, everything depends on you."

Cardinal Jin obediently finished drinking the medicine. He was sleepy at first, but after drinking the medicine for a long time, he felt tired again. He squinted at Shang Chengbi, "Move me over and sleep together."

"I'm going to see people from the Privy Council later, so I won't bother you. You don't have to go back and forth. Go to sleep. I'll watch over you." Shang Chengbi got up and hugged him, trying to make him sleep soundly.

Cardinal Jin drank a gulp of water when he came together, and was about to spit it out when he touched it, and vomited again. Shang Chengbi hurriedly patted his back, and was cleaned up again. After a lot of tossing, he finally changed After cleaning the mattress and waiting for him to fall asleep, he re-fed the medicine for him.I just wanted to change my clothes, so I heard him say, "Take off all your clothes, just sleep with me for a while. You were busy until midnight last night. I'll wait until you don't arrive. You are all alone. I always feel weird. Or you dislike me--"

Shang Chengbi quickly denied it, "Don't talk nonsense, how could it be. I'll just sleep with you for a while, and I happen to be tired too. Wang Chuanxi, come in after a quarter of an hour."

Only then did Cardinal Jin feel relieved, "You all go down." He only had one hand to move, and Shang Chengbi didn't dare to press him down, so he gently kissed his lips. Responding to him with his tongue, Shang Chengbi became interested for a moment and huddled with him, but Cardinal Jin couldn't move at all, and frowned after a while. Shang Chengbi was just when he was impatient, but he didn't dare After passing the fire, he gently scraped his teeth with the tip of his tongue and then withdrew, "I'm afraid I took some medicine, and even my mouth smells like medicine."

"I rinsed just now, how can there be any scent of medicine?" Cardinal Jin seemed to be very tired, and he was a little out of breath before he could say a few words. Shang Chengbi patted him lightly, and fell into a deep sleep after a while .

Only then did Cardinal Jin open his eyes, he frowned slightly, then licked the only right hand that could move with his tongue, sniffed it lightly on the tip of his nose, and thought, "I just tasted a little bit from my mouth, it's that easy Asleep?" He felt that something was wrong after taking the decoction these days, he was originally a healthy person, and there was nothing wrong with it other than lack of heart and drowsiness, but now that he drank so much medicine every day, he felt that the medicine was even more strange.Especially now that I lie on the bed every day, the flow of breath in my body seems to be much smoother than before, and the zhenqi of all kinds of internal exercises are not as stagnant as before. , but it would be wrong to say that there is something wrong, he has always been a delicate person, at first he thought that his brother and Shang Chengbi would not harm him, so he didn't doubt it, now that he has doubts, he naturally wants to give it a try, Seeing Shang Chengbi's current state, Cardinal Jin has already made up his mind to find out when Chu Yi Qing comes, but before Chu Yi Qing comes, he will definitely not drink this medicine.

"Your Majesty, it's time." Wang Chuanxi called out.

Cardinal Jin knew that Shang Chengbi was always vigilant. Normally, he would have heard Wang Chuanxi's footsteps when he was outside the tent, but now he didn't respond. Cardinal Jin was horrified, but his expression was normal, "Your Majesty is tired these days Great, finally fell asleep, let him sleep for a while. Tell the people in the Privy Council that you have discussed everything beforehand, don't come to the imperial court to quarrel, and tell them to wait."

Wang Chuanxi lowered his whisk and bowed, "Your Majesty is sympathetic to this servant, the emperor ordered—"

Shang Chengbi finally woke up, "What time is it, why are you sleeping so soundly?"

Cardinal Jin said, "Did you sleep soundly like this? You were thinking about something in your mind, and you woke up just now, and I wanted to ask you to rest for a while. These days, you have to deal with government affairs and take care of me. It's rare Lie down for a while."

Shang Chengbi smiled and leaned against his face, "So it's because of this that you insisted on telling me to sleep. Don't worry, I am the Lord of Ten Thousand Vehicles, this trivial matter will not wear me down."

Cardinal Jin just smiled, occasionally frowning when he encountered a wound on his face, Shang Chengbi gently held his face, "Chonghua, it's me who hit him hard."

Cardinal Jin was stunned for a moment, but he just smiled lightly, looked down at the eunuch as he put on his boots, "Come back early, I'll wait for you."

As soon as Shang Chengbi stepped out of Qifeng Pavilion, Cardinal Jin summoned Yun Shu in, "Tell me about the abandoned armor and the broken halberd. I don't want to know about the bank. Who wouldn't allow me to restore the Jin family to the noble house this morning?" If they still can't change their mind tomorrow, I will have to build the temple for them!"

"My son, it's too early to start now—" Yun Shu asked tentatively.

Cardinal Jin's eyes shifted, and he said leisurely, "If you don't do anything now, can you let Shang Chengbi interrupt me again when my hands and feet are ready?"
