Promotion Letter for the Chief Executive

Everyone left and closed the door, and the noise outside became very small.The imperial physicians prescribed prescriptions to boil the medicine, and only Ping An and Zhao Can were left in the room.He sat down on the bed and stared at Zhao Can's face.

Probably because he was not in front of others, so there was no need to hide the worry and panic in his heart, and Ping An's tears fell quickly.

But only one tear fell, and he immediately wiped his face hard, staring at Zhao Can, "Liar!"

He clearly said that there will be no danger and everything is under control, but what is it now?

However, thinking about it carefully, it was also because I had too much trust in Zhao Can's ability.However, how can anyone in this world be able to grasp everything in front of him?

Even the emperor who sits on the world can't, let alone Zhao Can?

Thinking about it this way, Ping An only felt that there was something stuck in his throat, which was extremely uncomfortable.When he spoke again, he took on a nasal tone, "Hurry up and wake up, or see how I will treat you in the future!"

It was obviously a harsh word, but he choked up when he said it.

Of course Zhao Can didn't answer him.

Ping An was stunned for a while, and then began to think about what happened today.

He didn't dare to let his mind stop, because once he stopped, he couldn't help but worry and fear, and then showed weakness.But now Zhao Can is lying here, unable to do anything, and can only rely on herself.So he must shoulder the responsibility of protecting Zhao Can.

He is still in the palace now, and no one can tell how many people were involved in what happened that night, so Ping An can't guarantee that he is really out of danger now.In case other problems arise later, there is no way to find a way to deal with them.

It's just that although Ping An tried hard to get himself to think about the business, his mind was just chaotic and he couldn't calm down. Naturally, it was difficult to sort out the context of the matter.

The only thing he can grasp is the result.Among the methods passed by Zhao Kun, falling objects and falling into the water were all successful in the end.As for getting Zhao Can drunk to create an accident, it is difficult to do so, so we can temporarily ignore it.

But it's nothing more than the palace lantern falling, after all, it escaped.But the reason why Zhao Can fell into the water was because he was injured first, he was treated later, and he was unable to move.Otherwise, he would have successfully left like the other princes.

So the assassination in the middle is an essential part.

But was it the hands of the other princes, or did they just seize the opportunity?

Although according to the news that Zhao Kun sent back, they were just planning to create an accident, and they were not willing to make such a thing that the emperor would investigate to the end, but that was only on the surface, who knows if someone secretly planned to do nothing. Endlessly, remove all the obstacles in front of you?

Of course, Ping An still felt that it was impossible for them to have the courage to confront the emperor.It is one thing to prove Zhao Can's "life and death calamity", but assassinating the emperor is two completely different things.If those masters had this ability and courage, the current situation might not be like this.

But if not them, then who?

After thinking wildly for a while, the imperial physician came back with a medicine bowl.

Ping An quickly got up and took it over, "I'll do it."

"It's not hot anymore, let him drink as much as possible." The doctor said.

With Zhao Can's current state, it is estimated that he can't swallow anything at all, so the imperial doctors can only drink as much as they drink.

Sure enough, Ping An fed a few sips with a spoon, but almost spilled out, not being drunk at all.He simply put down the spoon, took a sip by himself, and passed his lips to Zhao Can.

This is slower, but better.

The two imperial physicians were surprised for a moment at first, but this kind of comatose patient couldn't swallow, and there was no way to feed it by mouth.After all, human life is at stake, so the etiquette and defense cannot be taken care of for the time being.They themselves did not dare to treat Zhao Can like this due to the difference between the monarch and his ministers, but it would be great if someone could do it for them.

After all, the most important thing right now is to cure His Royal Highness Chen Wang.

After all, it is well known that the reason why His Royal Highness King Chen was injured and recuperated in the apse, so that he failed to evacuate immediately, and then fell into the water and fainted, was precisely because he saved His Majesty.If he hadn't rushed forward at that time, if the injured person was His Majesty, maybe the one who is lying down now and doesn't know the personnel will be replaced by the emperor.

After all, although there were many people around the emperor, if he was injured, there must have been chaos at the time, and it might not be possible to bring people out smoothly in a hurry.

Although no one dared to say these words, it did not prevent everyone from knowing it in their hearts.His Royal Highness Chen Wang did a great job in rescuing him, if he can't be cured, the two of them will naturally be punished.

So the two quickly regained their composure, and even secretly praised Ping An for his quick thinking.

A bowl of medicine was poured down, and not long after, Zhao Can developed a fever.This high fever came fiercely, and in an instant, his whole body was flushed with fever, and his head was sweating.Ping An could feel the frightening temperature just a little closer.

The imperial physicians hurriedly prescribed antipyretics, boiled them over and fed them to Zhao Can.

However, the medicine obviously didn't have much effect, and Zhao Can was still burning badly, looking very dangerous.

At this point, the imperial physicians have no other choice, as they said to the emperor before, the next step is to suffer.If Zhao Can can make it through, nothing will happen, but if he can't...

Ping An didn't want to think about that possibility, so he ordered cold water to be poured, twisted a cold towel and applied it to Zhao Can's forehead to help dissipate heat.Seeing that there was no effect, he mentioned the alcohol cooling method to the two imperial physicians.The three discussed for a while and decided to give it a try.

After tossing like this until the middle of the night, the fever still didn't subside, but Zhao Can woke up!

Zhao Can had a dream.

It was said to be a dream, but it was actually more like a memory hidden deep in his mind.

He dreamed about events in his previous life, to be precise, it was events in his last life when he was dying.

At that time, the emperor's health was very bad, and he couldn't suppress his sons who were becoming more and more ambitious, and chaos gradually began to arise in the court.Under such circumstances, Zhao Can fished in troubled waters, and finally got rid of all his brothers, full of vigor and arrogance.

He should indeed be proud.

Even the emperor father in Tiangan Palace, no one thought that he would be able to reach this step.Now several adult brothers are dead or injured, the only one who is still healthy is Zhao Xuan, who is still on his side.

Who would have thought that before he could finish his complacency, the emperor who had been dormant would throw him into a prison on the grounds that he had killed his brother and was insane.The piles of evidence were all true, and Zhao Can had no room to deny it, so he was convicted.

It was only later that he found out that Zhao Xuan had provided all the criminal evidence to the emperor.And all the forces in his own hands were taken over by Zhao Xuan.

——Who made him never have half a defense against this person?More than once in front of everyone, he said that brothers are of one mind and share blessings. Everyone thought that he would want to leave these things to Zhao Xuan, and Zhao Xuan took control of them without any effort.

Soon after, the emperor died of illness and Zhao Xuan ascended the throne.

On a day of celebration, Zhao Can was greeted with a cup of poisoned wine in the prison.

That elder brother who has been by his side since he was a child and treated him well, actually just regards him as a useful pawn, a loyal and stupid dog!Now that the use is over, it's time to send him on the road.

Even then he didn't show up.

Zhao Can knew that after her death, the rumors that she wanted to come to the outside world must be "suicide in fear of crime". Zhao Xuan never wanted to cast a shadow on her reputation, let alone the crime of killing brothers and sisters?So he used himself to deal with other people, and then let himself "suicide", even if the news got out, it would only make people feel that he deserved it.

There was a pang of anger hidden in Zhao Can's chest, he was not reconciled!

In this boundless emotion of unwillingness, Zhao Can's eyes darkened, his body lightened, and the next moment, he opened his eyes.

He looked very weak, his face was pale, and even his lips were almost pale.If Zhao Can was originally a painting with rich ink and color, then now it is an ancient painting that has faded from time to time.Especially after those eyes were opened, the whole painting seemed to have aura.

Ping An's heart beat violently twice, and he hurried over, "Your Highness, you're awake!"

Probably because his mind was slow during his illness, Zhao Can stared at Ping An for a moment, then moved his eyes slightly, and called him like a gnat, "Ping An..." He wanted to sit up after saying that.

Ping An hurriedly pressed him down, "Your Highness, you have a fever. Your Majesty and everyone are frightened, and ordered the imperial doctors to stay here. Now that the fever has not subsided, you should lie down first." After a pause, he asked again , "Dry mouth? Would you like some water?"

Due to the high fever, Zhao Can's lips were so dry that they cracked, and she looked very dehydrated.

Hearing the question of safety, Zhao Can felt that his throat was so dry that it seemed to be smoking.He nodded slightly, Pingan quickly poured a glass of water to his mouth, and fed it bit by bit.

After her throat was moistened, Zhao Can felt much better.

The high fever made his whole body weak, and even his head seemed to be a mass of paste, in a daze, as if he could lose consciousness again at any time.

Pingan held his hot hand, and said worriedly, "Your Highness, let the imperial doctor help you?"

Zhao Can tried to open his eyes and looked at him, moved his lips, Ping An realized that he had something to say, and quickly leaned his head towards him, and heard Zhao Can say the words "Changchun Immortal" with difficulty.

At this time, the imperial physician had already arrived, and Ping An could only get out of the way and let them diagnose the pulse.

Afterwards, another dose of fever-reducing medicine was prescribed, and Zhao Can took it.

Zhao Can's body was weak, and he fell asleep soon after drinking the medicine.Ping An tested the temperature of his forehead with his hands, and felt that it was not as hot as it was at night. Although it was still burning, the situation had obviously improved.

This discovery made the stone that had been hanging high in his heart fall to the ground.

Zhao Can had already woken up. Although his reaction was a little slow, he seemed to be in a clear state of mind. Obviously, he didn't become a fool with a fever, and it was only natural that his fever would subside afterwards.

Thinking about what Zhao Can said just now, Ping An stood up after thinking about it for a while, and said, "You two imperial physicians are here to wait, since His Highness has woken up, I will go to the Tiangan Palace to inform you first, so that His Majesty won't worry. "

Ping An rushed to Tiangan Palace and found that the palace was brightly lit.When he was invited in, he immediately saw the emperor leaning on the soft couch, obviously he hadn't slept all night.

After thinking about it for a while, he understood, how could the emperor sleep peacefully when something like this happened last night?There was an assassin in the so-called heavily guarded palace, but no one noticed it beforehand, and no one was caught afterwards, and nothing useful was found.

This made the emperor feel that his personal safety was threatened, so he naturally urged him to find out this matter quickly.Besides, the emperor also suspected that someone in the palace was colluding with outsiders and luring wolves into the house, which was more important.

So I would rather stay up all night, and find out the matter before the other party has time to destroy the evidence.

"Why hasn't Your Majesty rested yet?" After the matter with the emperor came to an end, Ping An stepped forward and said, "It's important to take care of the dragon's body, and it won't be too late to check other things slowly."

"Ping An is here? But what's the matter with Xiaoqi?" The emperor rubbed his forehead wearily and asked.

"His Royal Highness Chen just woke up once, and now he fell asleep again." Ping An said.

Hearing this, the emperor cheered up a little, "Okay! Finally, God has eyes!"

In the past two years, the emperor has treated Zhao Can much better than before, and with what happened last night, his attitude is naturally very different.

Ping An speculated on his attitude, and said, "It's just that the fever on His Highness has not subsided, and the situation is still not optimistic. I suddenly had an idea here, so I came here to meet His Majesty in person. Please make a decision."

"what idea?"

"Earlier, when I went to the sky in Zhongnan Mountain, Immortal Changchun once said that His Royal Highness must have disasters in his birth year, which is a catastrophe of life and death. After thinking about what happened last night, didn't you just agree with this statement? So I plan to invite Immortal Changchun to enter the palace for His Highness. Take a look, maybe he can find a way."

The emperor's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately said, "That's right, let's send someone to invite you!"

He didn't believe in this kind of thing, but at this moment, there was no other way but to give it a try.

What's more, being told by Ping An, the emperor also felt that last night might be Zhao Can's death. Since he is fine now, it is over.Many things in the past were due to this problem, so he was still unable to make up his mind. If the death calamity on Zhao Can's body disappeared, then some ideas could be realized.

In this way, please ask Changchun Daoist to come and have a look, and let him speak out, so that the emperor can rest assured.

Unexpectedly, this side decided to invite the Immortal Changchun, and Zhang Dongyuan rushed to report that the Immortal Changchun was asking to see him at the gate of the palace.

It stands to reason that the curfew has not been lifted at this time, and the door key has been released in the palace, so no news can be reported.But because many things happened tonight, many ministers were unable to return home, and they would always send people to inquire about the news.And the palace also had to send someone to inform, so as not to worry everyone.In this way, it's time for the people to be in a hurry, so when the real Changchun came, someone would report on his behalf.

"Could it be that the real person rushed here because he thought something happened in the palace?" The emperor was a little surprised.

You must know that it has only been two hours since the accident happened, and it took almost that long to come here from Zhongnan Mountain at night.The real person from Changchun came so coincidentally that it was impossible to think too much about it.

Thinking about it this way, the emperor became even more skeptical about Changchun Master's ability, and hurriedly and enthusiastically invited him in.

As long as the Changchun real person does not speak, he is very convincing in terms of appearance alone.With a broad robe and wide sleeves, and a pale face, he looks very fairy-like.Moreover, he was also very reliable when it was time to be serious, and he fooled the emperor into half-understanding with some vague words, and he respected him even more, and asked him to visit Zhao Can and try to save people.

Having not slept all night, the emperor was actually very exhausted, but he still went to see Zhao Can.The emperor really can't rest assured if he doesn't hear the words of Changchun real person with his own ears!

Taoists generally learn some principles of medicine, and there are many parts in ancient medical books that are consistent with the principles of Taoism.Many Taoist temples will work part-time as medical clinics to treat the surrounding people.Because they basically charge no money, they are more popular than the medical clinics in the city.

Of course, many of them are fooling people with things like talisman water and incense ash, but there are also many people who are good at medicine.

Taoism emphasizes self-cultivation and a thorough understanding of one's own body, so the more one is a master of the Tao, the more sublime the medical principles will be.In this regard, the Changchun real person is naturally very good at it.

As soon as he saw Zhao Can, after helping his pulse, he immediately said, "Pindao here has a cooling pill, which is suitable for this disease. After Pindao takes it out and His Highness takes it, the fever will subside within two quarters of an hour. When His Highness wakes up , and his life will be safe. After that, he only needs to take care of him for a few months before he can recover."

"Your Highness woke up once before." Ping An said, "It was only for a while, and fell asleep again after drinking the medicine. Is there any hindrance?"

"No problem, no problem. It's a good thing that His Highness can wake up on his own. It shows that his body has a deep foundation, and it's better than what Pindao expected." It won't do any harm."

As he spoke, he took out a pill the size of a soybean and gave it to Zhao Can.

Then the emperor said, "Is it all right?"

"Naturally." Changchun Master said, "As the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you will have future blessings. Your Highness will have even greater blessings after going through this catastrophe. Congratulations!"

The meaning in this sentence is very obvious, the emperor's eyes flashed slightly, and asked, "The real person once said that Xiao Qi will have a calamity this year, is this what he is referring to?"

"There is no definite number of catastrophe, not necessarily what it will look like." Master Changchun explained, meaning that although he speculated that Zhao Can will have a catastrophe, the exact date and what the catastrophe will look like cannot be predicted.Then he said, "However, the highness of the poor Taoist temple looks like the catastrophe is indeed over."

The emperor was overjoyed when he heard the words, "Okay, okay! If you survive a catastrophe, you will have future blessings. It really makes sense!"

Then he said to Changchun Daoist, "I have to trouble Daoist. It's better to stay in the palace for two or three days. I have always admired the Taoist scriptures, but I have no one to guide me. There are many obstacles and difficulties. I am going to ask the Daoist for advice."

"Your Majesty's absurd praise." Master Changchun declined, "Since His Majesty spoke, I shouldn't have resigned. It's just that there are complicated things in the mountain, and this time I came in a hurry, it's better to return to the mountain as soon as possible, I'm afraid I will disappoint Your Majesty."

The emperor was naturally very disappointed.It's just that Changchun's real talent showed his methods in front of him, which is quite a bit of a fairy, so it's not easy to force him to stay for the time being, only thinking that if there is a chance in the future, he must keep him for advice, and then order him send off.

Master Changchun smiled and twisted his beard, pointed to Ping An and said, "I've seen this before, let him give it to me."

Ping An also had many questions in his mind to ask him, and was about to send them off.It's just... the real reason you gave is too perfunctory, right?

But it doesn't matter if it's perfunctory or not, as long as it works.When the emperor saw him open his mouth, he immediately agreed, "Then you can give the real person away for my good life, and then come back and take care of Xiaoqi."

"Yes." Ping An took the order.

It is said that it is to send Changchun Daoist, but obviously it is impossible to send him back to Zhongnan Mountain, but to the gate of the palace and arrange carriages and horses.

Therefore, the time to speak is only on the way out of the palace.

Unavoidably being overheard, Ping An waited until he was in an open and empty place before taking two steps forward and asking, "Why did the real person come here at this time? Could it be that it was calculated?"

"Forget it, it's for sure, but if it's not invited, the poor will not come." Changchun Master said.Ascetics seek to transcend the mortal world, so naturally they don't care about the rise and fall of the world, let alone the life and death of Zhao Can alone?

Ping An also guessed a little bit, and thinking of Zhao Can's high fever and reminding himself of the Immortal Changchun, Ping An had a guess in his mind, and he asked, "Who invited you here?"

"Naturally, it is His Highness." Changchun Master said, "Didn't you already guess it? Why bother to ask."

"When did he send someone to invite you?" Pingan pursed his lips and continued to ask.

The real person in Changchun said, "I will never die until I reach the Yellow River... Naturally, I sent people there before the palace banquet started last night. Otherwise, why did the poor Daoist arrive in such a timely manner?"

Ping An was silent and didn't ask any more questions.

Master Changchun said with a smile, "The world is bitter and infatuated, do you still remember what I said before?"

"I won't become a Taoist priest, and it's neither fish nor fowl." Ping An said immediately.

Master Changchun glanced at him and nodded slightly, "Forget it, since you can see clearly, Pindao naturally has nothing to say. Poor Pindao's ability and lineage inheritance, I don't know who to entrust it to!"

"Master Dao, the palace gate is here." Ping An said.

From a distance, someone could be seen setting up a car and waiting at the gate of the palace, presumably it was the person who sent Changchun Daoist over.Although they were still far away, Ping An recognized the other party almost immediately because they were so familiar.

It is Kaiyang.
