A new journey of accumulating wealth
Chapter 202 Qingping Years 3 in 1
Fourth Master's body recovered much slower than expected.It has been raised for a month, and it looks like an ordinary person, but it is still affected inside.The appetite is smaller than before, and I look thinner than before.In summer, when it rains a little at night, he feels cold.
Lin Yutong was also affected, but it was not as big as him.I sorted it out for myself for a month, and it was basically good enough.And fourth master... It doesn't take half a year.
No matter how much he pretended to be fine, the children still saw something was wrong.One by one, the courtyard was very quiet except for the crying of Sister Sui's son.They were aware that something was wrong, but they had no way of knowing what it was.
Jin Ji had been here before, but fourth master was sick and missed.It was Jin Kuang who met him, and Qi Geer was by his side. He learned from his parents when he came back. Jin Ji said that he would lock Liao's family in the inner house from now on, so he let it go.Liao was released, but the others were not lucky and were all convicted.
Brother Qi said: "...the great grandfather must have been wronged too. The Liao family is taking care of the salt field on the side of the West Sea. He said that the Liao family sent a message that something happened there and told them to hurry up. Some people in the past had to deal with it. As a result, when they got there, the boss of the Liao family said that he had never sent anyone to carry such a message... After two proofs, the grandfather felt that something was wrong, and hurried back. A heavy rain delayed us on the road, and that's how it ended."
The Liao family can't be said to have been wronged. If something hurts people's hearts, it's useless to always be on guard.If you show a little fatigue, he can pounce on you and bite you to death.
Besides, fourth master is not thinking about it now.As soon as Brother Qi said this, the fourth master remembered that Brother Qi was still being educated by Jin Kuang, "Don't go there for now. Your grandfather has been busy recently... go to the school to study with your uncle... "
what?
Lin Yutong rubbed his head, "Go, this is what your father and your grandfather agreed."
Brother Qi cheered up, responded with a cheer, and ran out.Children like to be with their playmates, and there is almost no suspense about this.
Said that Brother Qi would not go, Jin Kuang didn't say anything else, it was really the same as the two sides had discussed in advance.
The fourth master secretly went to study those classics again. Apart from taking care of the daily affairs at home, Lin Yutong spent all his time studying this strange pulse.It's a pity that there are too few cases, only myself and fourth master can be used as a reference.
She was trying various medicines, and the compatibility was constantly changing, but she didn't need to ask Fourth Master to try it to know that it might not be very effective.Has her own body been repaired? Although there are not many, all these medicines have entered her stomach.No one can study this stuff better than eating it yourself.
With such repeated experiments, Lin Yutong felt that he had almost touched the door, "...the medicine won't work! Isn't the pill also work?"
Fourth master looked at her: "Pillion?"
Both he and Tongtong can make alchemy, but elixir is much more difficult than compounding medicine.There must be some poisonous things in the elixir, but again, there must be medicinal materials in this combination that can just dissolve the erysipelas.But how to add this medicinal material so as not to affect the efficacy of the medicine, to be honest, it's hard to say.
The most important point is that pills can be refined, because some worlds have time and space, and there are corresponding medicinal materials.
In today's world?
Do you have?
Lin Yutong had to give up this idea, forget it, it will take a year and a half, let's take it easy.
But at this time in the capital, inside the palace, the queen was furious, "Look slowly? If you slow down, the baby will be born. Look! Look for me carefully! Touch me inch by inch. I still don't believe it." Oh, a little Cai girl, this huge palace, is it really missing?"
The people below were trembling, "Except for His Majesty's bedroom, have you looked for everything?"
Xu Shinian looked coldly at the person standing below: "Your Majesty's bedroom...don't dare to look for it?"
None of the people below dared to speak.You can play wild elsewhere, and even if one or two other concubines die, no one will say anything.But the emperor's bedroom is the place where Mr. Xu ordered not to be disturbed.Even the palace people in the palace didn't dare to say anything and just went there casually.
Xu Shinian smiled slightly: "My brother is so loyal to His Majesty!" She slowly got up, "Is there any more white fungus and lotus seed soup stewed today?"
have!Always ready.
"Put a bowl, put ice in the food box, chill it with ice, bring it up, and send it to His Majesty." She asked someone to bring up the mirror, arranged her makeup in front of the mirror, and then got up.
Li Zhao was lying on the dragon bed, and the servants in the hall were all silent.He spoke vaguely, so he didn't speak.The waiter was even more afraid to talk to him.
Every half an hour, someone came to feed the water.Every two hours, someone came to feed.What melon and fruit snacks, fixed and quantitative, are the same as my previous work and rest.I get up early in the morning, but I can't read.It doesn't matter, the palace man who knows how to read comes in and reads one after another to him.
Since lying here, what I listen to the most is the biography of the emperor.The emperors of all dynasties in the history books have dabbled.After reading one by one, go back and read it again.
What else did he not understand? It was Xu Shizhong who was teaching him.
I was angry at first, but now I don't even have the heart to be angry.It became more and more calm.
This calm down, many things have enough time to regret...
As usual, he was making various assumptions in his mind, what would have happened if he hadn't done that in the first place.These things can only be thought about, and there is no one to say...Those who had served him were all killed in one go.The newcomers have been changed from group to group, and they are not well served, so they are pulled out and chopped down.Therefore, these waiters became more and more silent.Now he didn't even bother to ask these waiters what they were called.
Wen's is someone who can talk, but unfortunately... when she came, the eldest prince was the one who talked the most.
Prince!
The only son he raised was so useless.She knew that Wen shi wanted to choose a good-bred woman to pass on the bloodline to the first prince... She was very careful, she was afraid that Xu Shizhong would find out.In order not to call Xu Shizhong's attention, she didn't spend much time by his side.
The woman who admired him back then, the woman he really cared about no longer really belonged to him.
She fell in love with that person... Although she didn't want to admit it, she still had to face it. In Wen's heart, she had a son, but she really lost herself.
But at this moment, he really didn't hate him, neither Wen nor the deceased Jin Zhongwei.Sometimes I even fantasize that if only he was alive...if only he were alive.If he was alive, he would not watch Xu Shizhong do nothing like this.
I thought this over and over again in my heart, day after day, when suddenly there was a noise outside.
So lively!It's been a long time since I heard such a loud voice.
That's Xu Shinian, my queen.In the past, he hated her talking very much. If it weren't for her brother, he really wished he could never see her for the rest of his life.At this time, he heard her say: "...What? Do you want to stop Ben Gong? Ben Gong visits her husband, boils soup for her husband and sends it to nourish his body, is it not allowed?"
Xu Shizhong only said that he would not ask the queen to disturb the queen's recuperation, but he did not say that he should not visit the emperor.
Then get out of the way, there is no reason to stop couples from meeting each other.
Li Zhao looked at it with great interest, his mouth was no longer crooked, and his eyes were no longer squinted.Li Zhao always wanted to see the imperial physician, but the imperial physician himself was not sure whether it was for treatment or not?It's their fault for not improving.If he was really cured, Xu Shizhong would also have to be punished.So, Li Zhao just lay down like this, but looked much better.At least the face is straight, the mouth is not crooked, and the eyes are not squinted.
Everyone knows these tricks.Anyway, Xu Shinian, who hadn't seen Li Zhao for a long time, was taken aback for a moment. Li Zhaozhen seemed to be lying lazily on the bed. She felt a little uncomfortable, because her instinctive awe of him was still there.But it was only a moment before her hatred spread.With a sneer on his face, he chose the place farthest away from him in disgust, "These people, how well are you serving them? If there is something difficult, just talk, and I will change it for you. Oh! By the way... this It's hot, I think the screens inside and outside here should be replaced..." As he said that, he winked at the palace servants who followed, "Go and see for me, how many windows need to be replaced."
Li Zhao narrowed his eyes, and looked at Xu Shinian with a more meaningful look: "You heard some news and found it."
Xu Shinian's face turned cold: "It seems that His Majesty has not been resting... Sure enough, there is someone hiding in this palace."
Hiding someone?
The corners of Li Zhao's eyes twitched slightly, and then he glanced at the waiter beside him, "Go, go and invite the person out, so as to save our empress from mobilizing the crowd..."
The eunuch went with a low eyebrow, and after a short while, he brought in a woman in palace attire.
As soon as this person came in, the room was filled with light.Rao is more than 30 years old, and he is still glorious.
Xu Shinian stared at the woman who was walking step by step, her footsteps were like stepping on lotus flowers, graceful and light... The rhythm of walking, the rhythm of walking, made her take several steps back involuntarily.In that dream, the woman who couldn't see her face by Li Zhao's side... so it was her!
This is so ironic, who would have thought that the person Li Zhao misses is actually her.
The person who replaced her... turned out to be her!
How could this be?
How can you do this!
So, no matter whether my brother is alive or not, he can't change his own destiny?Obviously the fate of my brother and Jin Zhongwei has been changed, why this woman still appeared in the palace.
She remembered again what the eunuch in the cold palace said, the emperor was born to the empress dowager, you are not the emperor's biological mother.At that time, it was the eldest prince who ascended the throne as emperor.
In other words... the Wen family is the biological mother of the First Prince.
pass!pass!A lot of things that don't make sense are now clear.
good good good good!Li Zhao!Wen's!Great Prince!There is also the scheming Jin family!
Wen Shi was very humble, with low eyebrows, but when Xu Shinian looked at her, an inexplicable chill rose in his heart.She almost escaped from the bedroom and walked away quickly.
Seeing Xu Shinian walking away in embarrassment, Wen turned around and looked at Li Zhao: "You shouldn't let her see me! It was agreed at the beginning that I only care about the emperor, and I don't care about your harem."
Li Zhao patted his side and asked Wen to sit down.
Wen stood still, only looking at Li Zhao indifferently.
Li Zhao showed warmth, "I know...you are angry...she is the queen...I'm sorry...you..."
Wen frowned inwardly, why did he suddenly say this.
"If you are a queen...you will be able to protect...the emperor's son...not like her...I wish I...all the children...will die...you will be able to be...a good queen..."
What does it mean now?
Wen Shi blessed Fushen, "You can rest... I'm resigning..."
While walking back, she was thinking about Li Zhao's words... the eldest prince lives in the back hall, and she lives in the side hall.In the palace, Xu Shizhong should have taken special care of her, and she was doing well.As long as she doesn't meddle too much and only takes care of the eldest prince's affairs, then she can act freely.
Huang'er is not in a good mood, getting irritable day by day.For this mother, he may have more resentment.Except for being able to meet both sides at the beginning, at other times, as long as he approached by himself, he would be furious.Therefore, she only carefully directed the palace servants to serve her through the screen.
Today is the day to see the emperor again, the imperial doctor came to take the pulse, and then prescribed a prescription.She has been guarding like that all the time, anyway, the imperial physician will not talk to her, after prescribing the prescription and saluting, they usually retreat.
But today she didn't. She stood by the side and called out, "Ma'am."
In the palace, no one called her Empress, and those who were more respectful called her Madam.Of course, this palace only refers to Li Zhao's bedroom.It is also difficult to spread the news to the outside world.
Awakened by this call, Wen looked over, the imperial physician was still the same imperial physician, and his expression was as serious as ever, "...I have a few words to tell Madam... this chronically ill person has poor energy and blood, and is the most prone to sores. ..."
The matter of nursing was very detailed, Wen Shi collected her thoughts and listened to it... She was afraid of remembering it wrong, so she hurriedly asked the imperial doctor to write it down one by one, "It must be to urge people to take good care of them..."
The imperial doctor handed over a piece of paper, "This is prepared in advance, Madam please keep it. Don't call it a sore... Otherwise, it will be extremely difficult to heal..."
Wen didn't think much about it, and immediately kept it.After the imperial physician was sent away, Wen shi asked about the eldest prince's situation again, and then returned to the side hall.
Sitting at the window, leaning against the couch, opened it and looked at it carefully.
Seeing this, she sat up straight for a moment... All the waiters in the room looked sideways, and Wen Shi immediately restrained his expression and frowned: "...Go to someone, find Mr. Xu, and say that you need to customize it. The tool is for the First Prince to use..."
It seems that all these things are written in that letter.
In fact, on the surface, this letter was written by these people.There weren't many people serving in the palace, but Wen Shi was definitely under surveillance. There was a literate court lady who stood by, glanced at her, and then stepped back.
But in fact, the most important part of this letter is on the seal at the end of the letter.This private seal for imperial medical use was engraved by the father-in-law.
Jin Kuang engraved a seal, which is a new learning.It was only after arriving in Liaodong that I slowly started to learn it.Because of the miscellaneous books she has read, her memory is much better than others. Therefore, her father-in-law sent someone to ask her if she had seen a seal catalog of the previous dynasty. She had indeed read it, and could she remember it? few.The book was lost, so she wrote down everything she could remember and sent it to her father-in-law.
There is a very special way of engraving in the seal book, which she wrote from memory, but in fact it is wrong.After entering the palace, she found the book again and read it carefully.In the whole book, she has only one wrong place, but the seal carved out of this wrong place just appears in front of her eyes.At the end of the will given by the imperial physician.Although it is the name of an imperial physician, this seal must have been made by the father-in-law.
In just a moment, she knew that it was her father-in-law who sent her a message through the hands of the imperial physician.
If there is anyone he can trust in this world, then there is no one else except his parents-in-law.
Send a message at this time, what are you talking about?
After reading the will, she put it away indifferently.
But in his heart, he wondered over and over again what was hidden in the letter.Or there is nothing, the father-in-law just wants to tell himself that this imperial doctor is one of his own, so you can use it with confidence?
She was a little uncertain.
Over there, Xu Shizhong was first summoned by the queen, and then told that the lady wanted someone to make some special recovery tools.Xu Shizhong agreed on everything, and he didn't ask much about the eldest prince.But on the Queen's side, she urged him three times in a row to invite him to come over, but it was really impossible to go.
As soon as he stepped into the main hall, he frowned.It's a mess inside, how many things have been dropped?
"Who has made you unhappy again?" Xu Shizhong waved his hands and told the waiters to go down, so there is no need to clean up here.
When the people went down, Xu Shinian rushed over and grabbed her brother's arm without letting go: "Brother, why did you pick that woman back? Why?"
"The eldest prince's biological mother, you know this very well." Xu Shizhong frowned, "Did he take the initiative to marry you back then? No! You took the initiative to pester her. He didn't object to marrying you, but I persuaded you and told you , that's not your beloved..."
"Why did I marry him, don't you know?" Xu Shinian looked at him, "Just because you married my sister-in-law, I couldn't marry... I obviously had a sweetheart back then. It was you who listened to my sister-in-law and felt that you should change your marriage." You will lose face and refuse to agree to this matter... Anyway, if you are not marrying the person you love, then when I marry, I will naturally marry the one who can give me the best... Is the husband I chose wrong? ?”
"Since you know that he has someone in his heart, you have also got the highest position. Now, you, the queen, are doing well... If you make such emotions for others, it is unreasonable." Xu Shizhong was annoyed in his heart, "Don't be so fidgety Talking about your sister-in-law is not good, death is like a lamp going out..."
Xu Shinian waved his hands and said in a low voice: "Brother, do you know? I will be thrown into the cold palace... She will be the queen, the queen mother... Do you know? Do you know?"
Something flashed in Xu Shizhong's eyes, and he asked patiently, "Is this all in your dreams?"
"Yes!" Xu Shinian's eyes showed a bit of panic, and then he said fiercely: "Kill her! Kill her...Brother, I'm afraid!"
Xu Shizhong said 'hmm', "What else did you dream about?" He believed that if Li Zhao killed himself and Yi'an survived, he would not give up with Li Zhao.Send Wen Shi to Li Zhao's side, and then kill Li Zhao, and help Wen Shi's son to take the position, he firmly believes that this is what Yi An is willing to do for him.
Xu Shinian didn't know what Xu Shizhong was thinking, "Jin Zhongwei... Jin Zhongwei sent Wen Shi to the palace, he has ulterior motives!"
Xu Shizhong sighed: "Yi'an is gone, Wen's is just a mother who takes care of the children. Don't worry!" It's upside-down, and there's nothing new about it.
Xu Shinian put on a pale face, "But she is in the palace, and I can't be safe for a moment... Knowing that she is here, I can't sleep well at night... Brother, I don't want to live like this. Call Li Zhao to die... Call Wen Let's be buried with you. Brother, I would rather be a princess than this queen..."
"Shut up!" Xu Shizhong grabbed Xu Shinian's neck, "Pull out such thoughts from your mind and throw them away, and... keep your mouth shut! If you continue to talk nonsense, then Stay in the bedroom and nourish your brain!"
Xu Shinian struggled, eyes full of fear, "Brother...Brother..." She was speechless, tears streaming down her cheeks.
Only then did Xu Shizhong let go of his hand, and then he was also a little dazed, looking at his sister who had fallen to the side, and wanted to reach out to help him, but he held back in the end.Her position is too special, if she is always so unscrupulous, something big will happen.
She just owed that little lesson.
Thinking of Yi'an made him somewhat irritated.If this dream is true, then after his death, Yi An did not hesitate to use the Wen family to kill Li Zhao.His heart is still toward himself.But he... died for himself.
And what did I do after his death?
At this moment, for no reason, he actually felt that he was ashamed of him.
Coming out of the Queen's place so late, it's already very inappropriate.He is usually very careful, usually when it is too late, he will not set foot in the palace.Standing at the door of the queen's bedroom, he gave some instructions to the guards, mainly to prevent the queen from messing around.
Just about to leave, the queen ran out of the palace with disheveled hair, "My lord Xu... I am the queen. I still have the right to visit the emperor! Besides, I manage the harem, and in this harem, there is no reason With one concubine missing, don’t these palaces have the right to interfere?”
what?
What is missing a concubine?
"I've searched everywhere in the palace, but I haven't found the emperor's bedroom." Originally, she planned to look for it, but was disturbed by the sudden appearance of Wen Shi, and she almost forgot about it.Just now I faintly heard my elder brother explaining to the outsiders, try not to make me wander around in the palace, if I don't fight for it, I'm afraid there will be no chance in the future.
If this is another pregnant, croaking prince born... at least, the queen herself needs to know.
She was being stupid, of course she wouldn't say that in front of so many outsiders, but she firmly believed that her brother understood what she meant.
But he didn't want Xu Shizhong to just nod his head: "Understood. This matter will be supervised by the minister, and after finding out, report it to the empress."
With such a businesslike tone, Xu Shinian put on airs, "Then I don't worry about it. Lord Xu, let's leave the palace as soon as possible!" After speaking, she strode back to the palace, looking at the blurred figure in the bronze mirror He looked at himself in the mirror and touched his neck again, then curled himself up in the corner of the wall.
This huge palace is resplendent and magnificent.The messy palace had just been thrown, only went out and said a few words, and it was tidy again.
But now, touching the wound on her neck with her hand... she trembled all over.How is this different from the cold palace of that day.
For the first time, she realized so clearly that it seemed that saving her brother's life not only did not make her brother more grateful to herself, but made her disgusted.
Is he because of Jin Zhongwei's death?
Or know the other side?
In this deep palace inner garden, who can I rely on?
Xu Shizhong left from the Queen's side and went to Li Zhao's bedroom.But told the emperor to go to bed... If he didn't go to bed, he would go in if he wanted to.
Li Zhao didn't care if he slept or not.Seeing that the lights in the side hall were on, he knew that Wen Shi was still awake.He went to the back and asked someone to report. Wenshi pretended to be something in his heart, just holding the book to pretend, and didn't read it at all.At this moment, he opened the door first, "Master Xu?"
Xu Shizhong didn't let Wenshi let him in, he went in directly, turned around to look at the door, saw that Wenshi didn't close the door, he didn't say a word, and looked frank.
Wen Shi turned to look at him, "It's so late, you shouldn't be staying in the palace."
Xu Shizhong shook his head, without explaining, he picked up the book that Wen's placed on the table, "Seal seal catalog? Why are you interested in this?"
Wen Shi straightened his sleeves: "I'm idle, I'm idle, I don't have many books I haven't read... I can find interesting ones to read, and I only have a side door. I casually flip through them to pass the time."
"The eldest prince still doesn't recognize his mother?" Xu Shizhong didn't dwell on that question, instead he changed the subject and asked, and then explained, "No wonder the child."
"Yes!" Wen shi smiled coldly towards the main hall, "I don't blame the child..."
Knowing that Wen Shi was blaming Li Zhao, Xu Shizhong was relieved, and asked casually, "You are so close to him...what did you find?"
what?
Wen's face was puzzled, "I rarely go to the front hall. If he doesn't call, I won't go either. If you want me to pay attention to something for you, just say it..."
Her attitude... Xu Shizhong's lips moved, and he really didn't know what to say?
Ask Li Zhao if he secretly spoils his concubine?After the incident about the little princess, Li Zhao has never seen other women besides Wen Shi.All the people serving inside and outside here are eunuchs.Not a single court lady.
never mind!Xu Shizhong stood up, "It's nothing...just passing by, come and have a look..."
Before I finished speaking, I heard a bang, which was very loud...
Xu Shizhong looked out first and asked, "What's wrong?"
It was his people standing by the door and guarding. The palace was quiet, not even a cat.It is true that the palace people take turns on duty for twelve hours, but these people have been trained to make absolutely no noise under their feet.
Where is that sound?
He turned his head, only to see Wen looking at the wall in horror.
Xu Shizhong suddenly understood, "Get up..."
Wen took two steps back, pointed to the wall behind the table of the Eight Immortals, "Take away that picture of Luoshen coming out of the water!"
Xu Shizhong waved his hand, called someone to follow him in, and told him to move the table away.But the table didn't look big, but it was heavy, not to mention one guard, even two guards, and Xu Shizhong had to be picked up by the three of them to move away.
Xu Shizhong understood at this moment that the Wen family lived here, but he didn't know in advance that there was something special about this place.This thing is so heavy, Wen Shi can't move it at all.
The table is moved away, the painting is moved away, and an entrance that can allow people to bend over appears inside.It was dark inside, as if there was a step leading down from the hollow wall.
The location of the entrance is quite high, and you have to climb up the table along the stool, and then step in with one foot after getting on the table.
With a lamp in his hand, Wenshi took a step ahead.Her mind was full of what Li Zhaojin said during the day, he said, 'If you are the empress, you will be able to protect the emperor...unlike her...I wish all my children would die...', for no reason, He won't say that.Also, the queen is here today, what did he ask him to do?
He was diverting the Queen's attention. If the Queen came over, she might be looking for the person Li Zhao took pains to hide.
Thinking of the little princess who suddenly appeared, Wen had a guess in his heart.
Almost without hesitation, she walked in with the lantern on her waist. The national road inside was very narrow, and she was slender, so she walked in with her head bowed.Xu Shizhong, who followed behind, had a hard time, he just shrank, and had to turn sideways.
Fortunately, this section is not long, and after going down a dozen steps, there is light shining through.
There was a door there, and it was open, with a curtain.Open the curtain and go in, and people can stand upright.
This is a place with only half a room, which is very cramped.There was a small bed inside, and the quilt was spread randomly.There is a box next to the bed, which should be for clothes.At the bedside here is a small table with a food box, a teapot and a teacup on it... the remaining empty space is only enough to turn around.Now, at this turning point, copper basins, wooden shelves, towels and other things are scattered like this. On the side of the bed, there is a woman with a big belly lying upside down.It was too dark to see the face clearly.
The woman stretched out her hand towards Wenshi: "...help me... I'm about to give birth..." I'm about to give birth, and I just want to wipe my body with water, who would want to accidentally drop the basin...and someone else will find out.
She could hear the movement outside, and she could hear the movement of this woman all the time.
The emperor arranged her here because he knew that this woman could protect her... child.
"Save the child... please... please..."
Wen turned around and looked at Xu Shizhong, "Are you going to kill this mother and child?"
Xu Shizhong ignored Wen Shi, and the woman on the ground, and only looked at the wall next to the box.
This woman ate and drank, including the Gong barrel under the window, which at least proved that there were people delivering food and cleaning up the dirt every day... There must be a place for all the things that come in and out.
As a result, I looked around and the walls were complete.Try to move the box, but the box won't move.
Xu Shizhong opened the box, but there was nothing inside.Then he patted the side of the box next to the wall, and it was empty.Touched.Feeling the rope, pulling the rope, the other side of the box opened directly like a door.This box is not big, not half the height of a person.Thin women or children can get in by squatting.But this place is obviously not for people to enter, but for people to pass things from here after they come in.
This woman probably got in from this box before her stomach was big, and she never went out again.
Wen Shi was arranged here, which really added a layer of insurance to this woman.Even if someone finds out, Wen's place cannot be searched.
Li Zhao turned to look at Wen Shi, but Wen Shi stood in front of the woman and looked at him stubbornly.
Xu Shizhong turned his head back: "I was just looking to see if there was any convenient place to go out, since there was no place, she would have to pay some crime..."
To take the pregnant woman with a big belly out, she can only wrap it in a quilt and pull it up.
The woman was also stubborn, she didn't cry out, she bit the corner of the quilt, and endured the bumps of the steps.
People take it out and move it to the ground.
Xu Shizhong only asked for the imperial physician, and ignored everything else.He had to go to Li Zhao to see what else His Majesty was hiding.
Wen Shi was taken aback by the imperial doctor who came, he was the one who saw the eldest prince today, is he on duty today?
The imperial physician checked the pulse, and the nurse who delivered the baby followed in.Wen Shi didn't dare to go out because she was afraid that someone would secretly assassinate her, and she couldn't get rid of the relationship.Therefore, only screens were installed.Ask the imperial physician to stand outside the screen, and she stands on the other side of the screen... watching the midwife carry her to the bed.
When a woman gave birth, as soon as she yelled, she heard the imperial doctor say: "...My lord has something to tell my wife... If the child is a princess, it will be fine with anyone. But if the prince... saves him, then he can save it." First Prince... remember, remember!"
Wen Shi was taken aback, and went to look at him again, only to see that he had retreated a little further, looking at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose.
If this child is the prince, how can he influence the eldest prince?
Xu Shizhong stood by Li Zhao's bed, "...you have a lot of people in your hands! I don't know there are so many things in this palace." He leaned over and grabbed the other person by the collar Get up, "It's all like this, and you haven't lost any of your work. The Zhou family has been hidden from you!"
Li Zhao looked at him coldly, then slowly closed his eyes, and said, "If you have the guts... then kill me..."
Seeing such provocative looks, Xu Shizhong's face was twitching, "Don't think I can't do it..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a loud cry of a baby in the side hall... After that, there was no sound of good news for a long time.
There was a smile on the corner of Li Zhao's mouth, but there was a bit of sadness in his eyes: "He is a prince!"
Only the prince and the people below dare not come to announce the good news due to Xu Shizhong's despotic power.
Sure enough, Wen walked in with the child in his arms, "It's a prince!" After finishing speaking, he looked down at the child who had been roughly cleaned up, and looked at Xu Shizhong, "I'll take care of this child, okay?"
Xu Shizhong was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Wen with a frown: "You want to raise?"
Wen Shi nodded: "Except for me, no one can save his life if he puts it in anyone's hands."
Xu Shizhong looked at Wen Shi in astonishment: "...how do you think I will raise him for you? In terms of safety...of course it is safest for me to raise him...None of you need to worry that I will take his baby Life……"
Wen's hugged the child and did not let go, "But if something happens to him...you can't get away with it...do you really want to take such a risk?"
Xu Shizhong looked at Wen who was holding the child, and for some reason, he remembered what the queen said: She is the queen... and will be the queen mother in the future...
For a moment, the hairs on the back stood on end... Going around, could it be that nothing changed.
For the first time, he wondered, is it right for him to be so indecisive about how to deal with Li Zhao?
The hall fell silent for a while, Wen Shi was in embarrassment, when he heard hurried footsteps, it was Xu Shizhong's relatives who ran in, his face was sweating, no one paid attention to him, he ran directly to Xu Shizhong's side, and whispered in his ear.
Wen could only vaguely hear, "...the Jin family...Second master...the mark...unmistakable..."
Before she could connect these words, Xu Shizhong's complexion turned pale in an instant, and he swept past her like the wind, even the biggest variable - the second prince, couldn't care less!
Lin Yutong was also affected, but it was not as big as him.I sorted it out for myself for a month, and it was basically good enough.And fourth master... It doesn't take half a year.
No matter how much he pretended to be fine, the children still saw something was wrong.One by one, the courtyard was very quiet except for the crying of Sister Sui's son.They were aware that something was wrong, but they had no way of knowing what it was.
Jin Ji had been here before, but fourth master was sick and missed.It was Jin Kuang who met him, and Qi Geer was by his side. He learned from his parents when he came back. Jin Ji said that he would lock Liao's family in the inner house from now on, so he let it go.Liao was released, but the others were not lucky and were all convicted.
Brother Qi said: "...the great grandfather must have been wronged too. The Liao family is taking care of the salt field on the side of the West Sea. He said that the Liao family sent a message that something happened there and told them to hurry up. Some people in the past had to deal with it. As a result, when they got there, the boss of the Liao family said that he had never sent anyone to carry such a message... After two proofs, the grandfather felt that something was wrong, and hurried back. A heavy rain delayed us on the road, and that's how it ended."
The Liao family can't be said to have been wronged. If something hurts people's hearts, it's useless to always be on guard.If you show a little fatigue, he can pounce on you and bite you to death.
Besides, fourth master is not thinking about it now.As soon as Brother Qi said this, the fourth master remembered that Brother Qi was still being educated by Jin Kuang, "Don't go there for now. Your grandfather has been busy recently... go to the school to study with your uncle... "
what?
Lin Yutong rubbed his head, "Go, this is what your father and your grandfather agreed."
Brother Qi cheered up, responded with a cheer, and ran out.Children like to be with their playmates, and there is almost no suspense about this.
Said that Brother Qi would not go, Jin Kuang didn't say anything else, it was really the same as the two sides had discussed in advance.
The fourth master secretly went to study those classics again. Apart from taking care of the daily affairs at home, Lin Yutong spent all his time studying this strange pulse.It's a pity that there are too few cases, only myself and fourth master can be used as a reference.
She was trying various medicines, and the compatibility was constantly changing, but she didn't need to ask Fourth Master to try it to know that it might not be very effective.Has her own body been repaired? Although there are not many, all these medicines have entered her stomach.No one can study this stuff better than eating it yourself.
With such repeated experiments, Lin Yutong felt that he had almost touched the door, "...the medicine won't work! Isn't the pill also work?"
Fourth master looked at her: "Pillion?"
Both he and Tongtong can make alchemy, but elixir is much more difficult than compounding medicine.There must be some poisonous things in the elixir, but again, there must be medicinal materials in this combination that can just dissolve the erysipelas.But how to add this medicinal material so as not to affect the efficacy of the medicine, to be honest, it's hard to say.
The most important point is that pills can be refined, because some worlds have time and space, and there are corresponding medicinal materials.
In today's world?
Do you have?
Lin Yutong had to give up this idea, forget it, it will take a year and a half, let's take it easy.
But at this time in the capital, inside the palace, the queen was furious, "Look slowly? If you slow down, the baby will be born. Look! Look for me carefully! Touch me inch by inch. I still don't believe it." Oh, a little Cai girl, this huge palace, is it really missing?"
The people below were trembling, "Except for His Majesty's bedroom, have you looked for everything?"
Xu Shinian looked coldly at the person standing below: "Your Majesty's bedroom...don't dare to look for it?"
None of the people below dared to speak.You can play wild elsewhere, and even if one or two other concubines die, no one will say anything.But the emperor's bedroom is the place where Mr. Xu ordered not to be disturbed.Even the palace people in the palace didn't dare to say anything and just went there casually.
Xu Shinian smiled slightly: "My brother is so loyal to His Majesty!" She slowly got up, "Is there any more white fungus and lotus seed soup stewed today?"
have!Always ready.
"Put a bowl, put ice in the food box, chill it with ice, bring it up, and send it to His Majesty." She asked someone to bring up the mirror, arranged her makeup in front of the mirror, and then got up.
Li Zhao was lying on the dragon bed, and the servants in the hall were all silent.He spoke vaguely, so he didn't speak.The waiter was even more afraid to talk to him.
Every half an hour, someone came to feed the water.Every two hours, someone came to feed.What melon and fruit snacks, fixed and quantitative, are the same as my previous work and rest.I get up early in the morning, but I can't read.It doesn't matter, the palace man who knows how to read comes in and reads one after another to him.
Since lying here, what I listen to the most is the biography of the emperor.The emperors of all dynasties in the history books have dabbled.After reading one by one, go back and read it again.
What else did he not understand? It was Xu Shizhong who was teaching him.
I was angry at first, but now I don't even have the heart to be angry.It became more and more calm.
This calm down, many things have enough time to regret...
As usual, he was making various assumptions in his mind, what would have happened if he hadn't done that in the first place.These things can only be thought about, and there is no one to say...Those who had served him were all killed in one go.The newcomers have been changed from group to group, and they are not well served, so they are pulled out and chopped down.Therefore, these waiters became more and more silent.Now he didn't even bother to ask these waiters what they were called.
Wen's is someone who can talk, but unfortunately... when she came, the eldest prince was the one who talked the most.
Prince!
The only son he raised was so useless.She knew that Wen shi wanted to choose a good-bred woman to pass on the bloodline to the first prince... She was very careful, she was afraid that Xu Shizhong would find out.In order not to call Xu Shizhong's attention, she didn't spend much time by his side.
The woman who admired him back then, the woman he really cared about no longer really belonged to him.
She fell in love with that person... Although she didn't want to admit it, she still had to face it. In Wen's heart, she had a son, but she really lost herself.
But at this moment, he really didn't hate him, neither Wen nor the deceased Jin Zhongwei.Sometimes I even fantasize that if only he was alive...if only he were alive.If he was alive, he would not watch Xu Shizhong do nothing like this.
I thought this over and over again in my heart, day after day, when suddenly there was a noise outside.
So lively!It's been a long time since I heard such a loud voice.
That's Xu Shinian, my queen.In the past, he hated her talking very much. If it weren't for her brother, he really wished he could never see her for the rest of his life.At this time, he heard her say: "...What? Do you want to stop Ben Gong? Ben Gong visits her husband, boils soup for her husband and sends it to nourish his body, is it not allowed?"
Xu Shizhong only said that he would not ask the queen to disturb the queen's recuperation, but he did not say that he should not visit the emperor.
Then get out of the way, there is no reason to stop couples from meeting each other.
Li Zhao looked at it with great interest, his mouth was no longer crooked, and his eyes were no longer squinted.Li Zhao always wanted to see the imperial physician, but the imperial physician himself was not sure whether it was for treatment or not?It's their fault for not improving.If he was really cured, Xu Shizhong would also have to be punished.So, Li Zhao just lay down like this, but looked much better.At least the face is straight, the mouth is not crooked, and the eyes are not squinted.
Everyone knows these tricks.Anyway, Xu Shinian, who hadn't seen Li Zhao for a long time, was taken aback for a moment. Li Zhaozhen seemed to be lying lazily on the bed. She felt a little uncomfortable, because her instinctive awe of him was still there.But it was only a moment before her hatred spread.With a sneer on his face, he chose the place farthest away from him in disgust, "These people, how well are you serving them? If there is something difficult, just talk, and I will change it for you. Oh! By the way... this It's hot, I think the screens inside and outside here should be replaced..." As he said that, he winked at the palace servants who followed, "Go and see for me, how many windows need to be replaced."
Li Zhao narrowed his eyes, and looked at Xu Shinian with a more meaningful look: "You heard some news and found it."
Xu Shinian's face turned cold: "It seems that His Majesty has not been resting... Sure enough, there is someone hiding in this palace."
Hiding someone?
The corners of Li Zhao's eyes twitched slightly, and then he glanced at the waiter beside him, "Go, go and invite the person out, so as to save our empress from mobilizing the crowd..."
The eunuch went with a low eyebrow, and after a short while, he brought in a woman in palace attire.
As soon as this person came in, the room was filled with light.Rao is more than 30 years old, and he is still glorious.
Xu Shinian stared at the woman who was walking step by step, her footsteps were like stepping on lotus flowers, graceful and light... The rhythm of walking, the rhythm of walking, made her take several steps back involuntarily.In that dream, the woman who couldn't see her face by Li Zhao's side... so it was her!
This is so ironic, who would have thought that the person Li Zhao misses is actually her.
The person who replaced her... turned out to be her!
How could this be?
How can you do this!
So, no matter whether my brother is alive or not, he can't change his own destiny?Obviously the fate of my brother and Jin Zhongwei has been changed, why this woman still appeared in the palace.
She remembered again what the eunuch in the cold palace said, the emperor was born to the empress dowager, you are not the emperor's biological mother.At that time, it was the eldest prince who ascended the throne as emperor.
In other words... the Wen family is the biological mother of the First Prince.
pass!pass!A lot of things that don't make sense are now clear.
good good good good!Li Zhao!Wen's!Great Prince!There is also the scheming Jin family!
Wen Shi was very humble, with low eyebrows, but when Xu Shinian looked at her, an inexplicable chill rose in his heart.She almost escaped from the bedroom and walked away quickly.
Seeing Xu Shinian walking away in embarrassment, Wen turned around and looked at Li Zhao: "You shouldn't let her see me! It was agreed at the beginning that I only care about the emperor, and I don't care about your harem."
Li Zhao patted his side and asked Wen to sit down.
Wen stood still, only looking at Li Zhao indifferently.
Li Zhao showed warmth, "I know...you are angry...she is the queen...I'm sorry...you..."
Wen frowned inwardly, why did he suddenly say this.
"If you are a queen...you will be able to protect...the emperor's son...not like her...I wish I...all the children...will die...you will be able to be...a good queen..."
What does it mean now?
Wen Shi blessed Fushen, "You can rest... I'm resigning..."
While walking back, she was thinking about Li Zhao's words... the eldest prince lives in the back hall, and she lives in the side hall.In the palace, Xu Shizhong should have taken special care of her, and she was doing well.As long as she doesn't meddle too much and only takes care of the eldest prince's affairs, then she can act freely.
Huang'er is not in a good mood, getting irritable day by day.For this mother, he may have more resentment.Except for being able to meet both sides at the beginning, at other times, as long as he approached by himself, he would be furious.Therefore, she only carefully directed the palace servants to serve her through the screen.
Today is the day to see the emperor again, the imperial doctor came to take the pulse, and then prescribed a prescription.She has been guarding like that all the time, anyway, the imperial physician will not talk to her, after prescribing the prescription and saluting, they usually retreat.
But today she didn't. She stood by the side and called out, "Ma'am."
In the palace, no one called her Empress, and those who were more respectful called her Madam.Of course, this palace only refers to Li Zhao's bedroom.It is also difficult to spread the news to the outside world.
Awakened by this call, Wen looked over, the imperial physician was still the same imperial physician, and his expression was as serious as ever, "...I have a few words to tell Madam... this chronically ill person has poor energy and blood, and is the most prone to sores. ..."
The matter of nursing was very detailed, Wen Shi collected her thoughts and listened to it... She was afraid of remembering it wrong, so she hurriedly asked the imperial doctor to write it down one by one, "It must be to urge people to take good care of them..."
The imperial doctor handed over a piece of paper, "This is prepared in advance, Madam please keep it. Don't call it a sore... Otherwise, it will be extremely difficult to heal..."
Wen didn't think much about it, and immediately kept it.After the imperial physician was sent away, Wen shi asked about the eldest prince's situation again, and then returned to the side hall.
Sitting at the window, leaning against the couch, opened it and looked at it carefully.
Seeing this, she sat up straight for a moment... All the waiters in the room looked sideways, and Wen Shi immediately restrained his expression and frowned: "...Go to someone, find Mr. Xu, and say that you need to customize it. The tool is for the First Prince to use..."
It seems that all these things are written in that letter.
In fact, on the surface, this letter was written by these people.There weren't many people serving in the palace, but Wen Shi was definitely under surveillance. There was a literate court lady who stood by, glanced at her, and then stepped back.
But in fact, the most important part of this letter is on the seal at the end of the letter.This private seal for imperial medical use was engraved by the father-in-law.
Jin Kuang engraved a seal, which is a new learning.It was only after arriving in Liaodong that I slowly started to learn it.Because of the miscellaneous books she has read, her memory is much better than others. Therefore, her father-in-law sent someone to ask her if she had seen a seal catalog of the previous dynasty. She had indeed read it, and could she remember it? few.The book was lost, so she wrote down everything she could remember and sent it to her father-in-law.
There is a very special way of engraving in the seal book, which she wrote from memory, but in fact it is wrong.After entering the palace, she found the book again and read it carefully.In the whole book, she has only one wrong place, but the seal carved out of this wrong place just appears in front of her eyes.At the end of the will given by the imperial physician.Although it is the name of an imperial physician, this seal must have been made by the father-in-law.
In just a moment, she knew that it was her father-in-law who sent her a message through the hands of the imperial physician.
If there is anyone he can trust in this world, then there is no one else except his parents-in-law.
Send a message at this time, what are you talking about?
After reading the will, she put it away indifferently.
But in his heart, he wondered over and over again what was hidden in the letter.Or there is nothing, the father-in-law just wants to tell himself that this imperial doctor is one of his own, so you can use it with confidence?
She was a little uncertain.
Over there, Xu Shizhong was first summoned by the queen, and then told that the lady wanted someone to make some special recovery tools.Xu Shizhong agreed on everything, and he didn't ask much about the eldest prince.But on the Queen's side, she urged him three times in a row to invite him to come over, but it was really impossible to go.
As soon as he stepped into the main hall, he frowned.It's a mess inside, how many things have been dropped?
"Who has made you unhappy again?" Xu Shizhong waved his hands and told the waiters to go down, so there is no need to clean up here.
When the people went down, Xu Shinian rushed over and grabbed her brother's arm without letting go: "Brother, why did you pick that woman back? Why?"
"The eldest prince's biological mother, you know this very well." Xu Shizhong frowned, "Did he take the initiative to marry you back then? No! You took the initiative to pester her. He didn't object to marrying you, but I persuaded you and told you , that's not your beloved..."
"Why did I marry him, don't you know?" Xu Shinian looked at him, "Just because you married my sister-in-law, I couldn't marry... I obviously had a sweetheart back then. It was you who listened to my sister-in-law and felt that you should change your marriage." You will lose face and refuse to agree to this matter... Anyway, if you are not marrying the person you love, then when I marry, I will naturally marry the one who can give me the best... Is the husband I chose wrong? ?”
"Since you know that he has someone in his heart, you have also got the highest position. Now, you, the queen, are doing well... If you make such emotions for others, it is unreasonable." Xu Shizhong was annoyed in his heart, "Don't be so fidgety Talking about your sister-in-law is not good, death is like a lamp going out..."
Xu Shinian waved his hands and said in a low voice: "Brother, do you know? I will be thrown into the cold palace... She will be the queen, the queen mother... Do you know? Do you know?"
Something flashed in Xu Shizhong's eyes, and he asked patiently, "Is this all in your dreams?"
"Yes!" Xu Shinian's eyes showed a bit of panic, and then he said fiercely: "Kill her! Kill her...Brother, I'm afraid!"
Xu Shizhong said 'hmm', "What else did you dream about?" He believed that if Li Zhao killed himself and Yi'an survived, he would not give up with Li Zhao.Send Wen Shi to Li Zhao's side, and then kill Li Zhao, and help Wen Shi's son to take the position, he firmly believes that this is what Yi An is willing to do for him.
Xu Shinian didn't know what Xu Shizhong was thinking, "Jin Zhongwei... Jin Zhongwei sent Wen Shi to the palace, he has ulterior motives!"
Xu Shizhong sighed: "Yi'an is gone, Wen's is just a mother who takes care of the children. Don't worry!" It's upside-down, and there's nothing new about it.
Xu Shinian put on a pale face, "But she is in the palace, and I can't be safe for a moment... Knowing that she is here, I can't sleep well at night... Brother, I don't want to live like this. Call Li Zhao to die... Call Wen Let's be buried with you. Brother, I would rather be a princess than this queen..."
"Shut up!" Xu Shizhong grabbed Xu Shinian's neck, "Pull out such thoughts from your mind and throw them away, and... keep your mouth shut! If you continue to talk nonsense, then Stay in the bedroom and nourish your brain!"
Xu Shinian struggled, eyes full of fear, "Brother...Brother..." She was speechless, tears streaming down her cheeks.
Only then did Xu Shizhong let go of his hand, and then he was also a little dazed, looking at his sister who had fallen to the side, and wanted to reach out to help him, but he held back in the end.Her position is too special, if she is always so unscrupulous, something big will happen.
She just owed that little lesson.
Thinking of Yi'an made him somewhat irritated.If this dream is true, then after his death, Yi An did not hesitate to use the Wen family to kill Li Zhao.His heart is still toward himself.But he... died for himself.
And what did I do after his death?
At this moment, for no reason, he actually felt that he was ashamed of him.
Coming out of the Queen's place so late, it's already very inappropriate.He is usually very careful, usually when it is too late, he will not set foot in the palace.Standing at the door of the queen's bedroom, he gave some instructions to the guards, mainly to prevent the queen from messing around.
Just about to leave, the queen ran out of the palace with disheveled hair, "My lord Xu... I am the queen. I still have the right to visit the emperor! Besides, I manage the harem, and in this harem, there is no reason With one concubine missing, don’t these palaces have the right to interfere?”
what?
What is missing a concubine?
"I've searched everywhere in the palace, but I haven't found the emperor's bedroom." Originally, she planned to look for it, but was disturbed by the sudden appearance of Wen Shi, and she almost forgot about it.Just now I faintly heard my elder brother explaining to the outsiders, try not to make me wander around in the palace, if I don't fight for it, I'm afraid there will be no chance in the future.
If this is another pregnant, croaking prince born... at least, the queen herself needs to know.
She was being stupid, of course she wouldn't say that in front of so many outsiders, but she firmly believed that her brother understood what she meant.
But he didn't want Xu Shizhong to just nod his head: "Understood. This matter will be supervised by the minister, and after finding out, report it to the empress."
With such a businesslike tone, Xu Shinian put on airs, "Then I don't worry about it. Lord Xu, let's leave the palace as soon as possible!" After speaking, she strode back to the palace, looking at the blurred figure in the bronze mirror He looked at himself in the mirror and touched his neck again, then curled himself up in the corner of the wall.
This huge palace is resplendent and magnificent.The messy palace had just been thrown, only went out and said a few words, and it was tidy again.
But now, touching the wound on her neck with her hand... she trembled all over.How is this different from the cold palace of that day.
For the first time, she realized so clearly that it seemed that saving her brother's life not only did not make her brother more grateful to herself, but made her disgusted.
Is he because of Jin Zhongwei's death?
Or know the other side?
In this deep palace inner garden, who can I rely on?
Xu Shizhong left from the Queen's side and went to Li Zhao's bedroom.But told the emperor to go to bed... If he didn't go to bed, he would go in if he wanted to.
Li Zhao didn't care if he slept or not.Seeing that the lights in the side hall were on, he knew that Wen Shi was still awake.He went to the back and asked someone to report. Wenshi pretended to be something in his heart, just holding the book to pretend, and didn't read it at all.At this moment, he opened the door first, "Master Xu?"
Xu Shizhong didn't let Wenshi let him in, he went in directly, turned around to look at the door, saw that Wenshi didn't close the door, he didn't say a word, and looked frank.
Wen Shi turned to look at him, "It's so late, you shouldn't be staying in the palace."
Xu Shizhong shook his head, without explaining, he picked up the book that Wen's placed on the table, "Seal seal catalog? Why are you interested in this?"
Wen Shi straightened his sleeves: "I'm idle, I'm idle, I don't have many books I haven't read... I can find interesting ones to read, and I only have a side door. I casually flip through them to pass the time."
"The eldest prince still doesn't recognize his mother?" Xu Shizhong didn't dwell on that question, instead he changed the subject and asked, and then explained, "No wonder the child."
"Yes!" Wen shi smiled coldly towards the main hall, "I don't blame the child..."
Knowing that Wen Shi was blaming Li Zhao, Xu Shizhong was relieved, and asked casually, "You are so close to him...what did you find?"
what?
Wen's face was puzzled, "I rarely go to the front hall. If he doesn't call, I won't go either. If you want me to pay attention to something for you, just say it..."
Her attitude... Xu Shizhong's lips moved, and he really didn't know what to say?
Ask Li Zhao if he secretly spoils his concubine?After the incident about the little princess, Li Zhao has never seen other women besides Wen Shi.All the people serving inside and outside here are eunuchs.Not a single court lady.
never mind!Xu Shizhong stood up, "It's nothing...just passing by, come and have a look..."
Before I finished speaking, I heard a bang, which was very loud...
Xu Shizhong looked out first and asked, "What's wrong?"
It was his people standing by the door and guarding. The palace was quiet, not even a cat.It is true that the palace people take turns on duty for twelve hours, but these people have been trained to make absolutely no noise under their feet.
Where is that sound?
He turned his head, only to see Wen looking at the wall in horror.
Xu Shizhong suddenly understood, "Get up..."
Wen took two steps back, pointed to the wall behind the table of the Eight Immortals, "Take away that picture of Luoshen coming out of the water!"
Xu Shizhong waved his hand, called someone to follow him in, and told him to move the table away.But the table didn't look big, but it was heavy, not to mention one guard, even two guards, and Xu Shizhong had to be picked up by the three of them to move away.
Xu Shizhong understood at this moment that the Wen family lived here, but he didn't know in advance that there was something special about this place.This thing is so heavy, Wen Shi can't move it at all.
The table is moved away, the painting is moved away, and an entrance that can allow people to bend over appears inside.It was dark inside, as if there was a step leading down from the hollow wall.
The location of the entrance is quite high, and you have to climb up the table along the stool, and then step in with one foot after getting on the table.
With a lamp in his hand, Wenshi took a step ahead.Her mind was full of what Li Zhaojin said during the day, he said, 'If you are the empress, you will be able to protect the emperor...unlike her...I wish all my children would die...', for no reason, He won't say that.Also, the queen is here today, what did he ask him to do?
He was diverting the Queen's attention. If the Queen came over, she might be looking for the person Li Zhao took pains to hide.
Thinking of the little princess who suddenly appeared, Wen had a guess in his heart.
Almost without hesitation, she walked in with the lantern on her waist. The national road inside was very narrow, and she was slender, so she walked in with her head bowed.Xu Shizhong, who followed behind, had a hard time, he just shrank, and had to turn sideways.
Fortunately, this section is not long, and after going down a dozen steps, there is light shining through.
There was a door there, and it was open, with a curtain.Open the curtain and go in, and people can stand upright.
This is a place with only half a room, which is very cramped.There was a small bed inside, and the quilt was spread randomly.There is a box next to the bed, which should be for clothes.At the bedside here is a small table with a food box, a teapot and a teacup on it... the remaining empty space is only enough to turn around.Now, at this turning point, copper basins, wooden shelves, towels and other things are scattered like this. On the side of the bed, there is a woman with a big belly lying upside down.It was too dark to see the face clearly.
The woman stretched out her hand towards Wenshi: "...help me... I'm about to give birth..." I'm about to give birth, and I just want to wipe my body with water, who would want to accidentally drop the basin...and someone else will find out.
She could hear the movement outside, and she could hear the movement of this woman all the time.
The emperor arranged her here because he knew that this woman could protect her... child.
"Save the child... please... please..."
Wen turned around and looked at Xu Shizhong, "Are you going to kill this mother and child?"
Xu Shizhong ignored Wen Shi, and the woman on the ground, and only looked at the wall next to the box.
This woman ate and drank, including the Gong barrel under the window, which at least proved that there were people delivering food and cleaning up the dirt every day... There must be a place for all the things that come in and out.
As a result, I looked around and the walls were complete.Try to move the box, but the box won't move.
Xu Shizhong opened the box, but there was nothing inside.Then he patted the side of the box next to the wall, and it was empty.Touched.Feeling the rope, pulling the rope, the other side of the box opened directly like a door.This box is not big, not half the height of a person.Thin women or children can get in by squatting.But this place is obviously not for people to enter, but for people to pass things from here after they come in.
This woman probably got in from this box before her stomach was big, and she never went out again.
Wen Shi was arranged here, which really added a layer of insurance to this woman.Even if someone finds out, Wen's place cannot be searched.
Li Zhao turned to look at Wen Shi, but Wen Shi stood in front of the woman and looked at him stubbornly.
Xu Shizhong turned his head back: "I was just looking to see if there was any convenient place to go out, since there was no place, she would have to pay some crime..."
To take the pregnant woman with a big belly out, she can only wrap it in a quilt and pull it up.
The woman was also stubborn, she didn't cry out, she bit the corner of the quilt, and endured the bumps of the steps.
People take it out and move it to the ground.
Xu Shizhong only asked for the imperial physician, and ignored everything else.He had to go to Li Zhao to see what else His Majesty was hiding.
Wen Shi was taken aback by the imperial doctor who came, he was the one who saw the eldest prince today, is he on duty today?
The imperial physician checked the pulse, and the nurse who delivered the baby followed in.Wen Shi didn't dare to go out because she was afraid that someone would secretly assassinate her, and she couldn't get rid of the relationship.Therefore, only screens were installed.Ask the imperial physician to stand outside the screen, and she stands on the other side of the screen... watching the midwife carry her to the bed.
When a woman gave birth, as soon as she yelled, she heard the imperial doctor say: "...My lord has something to tell my wife... If the child is a princess, it will be fine with anyone. But if the prince... saves him, then he can save it." First Prince... remember, remember!"
Wen Shi was taken aback, and went to look at him again, only to see that he had retreated a little further, looking at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose.
If this child is the prince, how can he influence the eldest prince?
Xu Shizhong stood by Li Zhao's bed, "...you have a lot of people in your hands! I don't know there are so many things in this palace." He leaned over and grabbed the other person by the collar Get up, "It's all like this, and you haven't lost any of your work. The Zhou family has been hidden from you!"
Li Zhao looked at him coldly, then slowly closed his eyes, and said, "If you have the guts... then kill me..."
Seeing such provocative looks, Xu Shizhong's face was twitching, "Don't think I can't do it..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a loud cry of a baby in the side hall... After that, there was no sound of good news for a long time.
There was a smile on the corner of Li Zhao's mouth, but there was a bit of sadness in his eyes: "He is a prince!"
Only the prince and the people below dare not come to announce the good news due to Xu Shizhong's despotic power.
Sure enough, Wen walked in with the child in his arms, "It's a prince!" After finishing speaking, he looked down at the child who had been roughly cleaned up, and looked at Xu Shizhong, "I'll take care of this child, okay?"
Xu Shizhong was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Wen with a frown: "You want to raise?"
Wen Shi nodded: "Except for me, no one can save his life if he puts it in anyone's hands."
Xu Shizhong looked at Wen Shi in astonishment: "...how do you think I will raise him for you? In terms of safety...of course it is safest for me to raise him...None of you need to worry that I will take his baby Life……"
Wen's hugged the child and did not let go, "But if something happens to him...you can't get away with it...do you really want to take such a risk?"
Xu Shizhong looked at Wen who was holding the child, and for some reason, he remembered what the queen said: She is the queen... and will be the queen mother in the future...
For a moment, the hairs on the back stood on end... Going around, could it be that nothing changed.
For the first time, he wondered, is it right for him to be so indecisive about how to deal with Li Zhao?
The hall fell silent for a while, Wen Shi was in embarrassment, when he heard hurried footsteps, it was Xu Shizhong's relatives who ran in, his face was sweating, no one paid attention to him, he ran directly to Xu Shizhong's side, and whispered in his ear.
Wen could only vaguely hear, "...the Jin family...Second master...the mark...unmistakable..."
Before she could connect these words, Xu Shizhong's complexion turned pale in an instant, and he swept past her like the wind, even the biggest variable - the second prince, couldn't care less!
