I Became the Older Brother of the Heroine in an Abusive Novel

After Jun Huailang was rescued by Xue Yan, he developed a high fever.

The palace was in chaos.

The prince of Yongning was in a coma, and was brought back to Yongle Palace by the fifth prince who was also drenched all over.It is said that he fell into the water for no reason, and was rescued by the Fifth Highness who happened to come.

Emperor Qingping hastily sent someone to place Jun Huailang in the side hall of Yongle Hall, and immediately asked Lingfu to invite the imperial physician.

The imperial physician originally said that the prince of Yongning was just frightened and cold, and there was no sign of drowning, and he only needed two doses of medicine to cure him.But in the middle of the night, Jun Huailang's fever got worse, even the imperial physician panicked, not knowing what to do.

The nobles from various families left the palace in a hurry, while the Jun family waited anxiously outside the side hall.Emperor Qingping used Duke Yongning a lot these days, so he stayed here after such a big event happened today, and was persuaded to rest in the palace next to him.

Concubine Shu stayed in the side hall without leaving her.

She had never done any work of serving others, but at this moment, she did not pretend to be a hand, holding a cold handkerchief and kept rubbing Jun Huailang's forehead and wiping his hands and feet.

But Jun Huailang was unconscious all the time, his eyes were so hot that he couldn't open his eyes, and his temperature never dropped.

Xue Yan stood by the side silently.

The maids stepped forward to replace the cold water for her.Concubine Shu came out with her hands empty, sat on the edge of the bed, and wiped her tears silently after a while.

After a while, she choked up and said, "Go, change clothes."

At this time, apart from the eunuchs and maids who were waiting by the side, there were only her and Xue Yan left.Xue Yan has been guarding here since he came back, still wearing soaked robes.

Xue Yan didn't move.

Concubine Shu turned around and reprimanded him: "Can't you hear me? I can't afford to take care of the second one who has a fever, why don't you go and change into clean clothes?"

At this moment, a maid came in with a bowl of medicine and handed it to the maid who was waiting by the bed.

The imperial physician followed her and came in to watch Jun Huailang take the medicine.

"Emperor doctor, what's the matter?" Concubine Shu asked hastily. "You said just now that two doses of medicine will definitely reduce the fever, but why is the fever getting worse now!"

Hearing this, the imperial physician hurriedly knelt down in front of Concubine Shu.

"Back to your mother, I don't know, and I have never seen it before!" He kowtowed. "His Royal Highness's pulse condition is clearly an ordinary cold, but the more I look at it now... the more it looks like I've hit an evil spirit!"

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at Xue Yan next to him tremblingly, the deep meaning in his words was self-evident.

Concubine Shu was taken aback for a moment, then she became furious, grabbed the empty bowl next to her, and threw it at the imperial doctor's side.

"Let you heal the disease, who told you to talk nonsense here! I am not good at medicine, so I said that Lang'er was an evil? I think you are an evil, and it is time for His Majesty to pick off your head and drive you away." Evil spirit!"

The sound of porcelain shattering shocked everyone in the hall.

The imperial doctor seemed to be very timid, and was terrified by the broken bowl, so he kowtowed a few times to apologize, and ran out scrambling.

Just as he passed by, Xue Yan looked sideways and gave him a cold look in the direction he was running.

It was the palace where Emperor Qingping lived.

Concubine Shu didn't care about him at all.She wiped away her tears, and ordered the maid to come forward and feed Jun Huailang the bowl of medicine to drink.

Xue Yan's gaze fell on the bowl of medicine, and then moved to Jun Huailang's face.

His face was flushed with fever at this time, his eyes were closed tightly, and his eyelashes were like a pair of fragile crow wings, casting a shadow on his face.

Xue Yan's eyes were full of blood that had been held back for a long time.

"Bletilla striata." After a while, he struggled to look away and said softly. "Come out."

-

The palace where Emperor Qingping lived was also brightly lit.

He leaned on the couch and took a nap for a while, but couldn't fall asleep again.

In the past two years, he obviously felt that the Xu family was not very honest, and the literati of the Jiang family were ganged up with gangsters.

In the entire court, he couldn't find anyone who was both trustworthy and usable.

He managed to find Duke Yongning, a right-hand man who is neither party nor group, and was about to send him to the south of the Yangtze River after the New Year's Eve, but he didn't expect that at this juncture, his eldest son living in the palace had a problem. .

Emperor Qingping was so annoyed that he couldn't sleep, he called Ling Fulai to pour himself a refreshing cup of tea.

"Why does it sound like it's getting worse over there?" He asked with a frown. "Didn't it just fall into the water? Which imperial physician did you hire?"

Ling Fu hurriedly said: "Returning to Your Majesty, it is the Imperial Physician Zhu from the Imperial Hospital. The Imperial Physician Zhu has superb medical skills, Your Majesty, you know it."

Emperor Qingping pressed his eyebrows and nodded.

"That's weird," he murmured.

At this moment, a eunuch at the door reported: "Your Majesty, I wish the imperial physician to see you."

Emperor Qingping raised his hand: "Let him in."

After a while, Imperial Physician Zhu knelt down in front of him.

"Tell me, what's going on with the prince of Yongning?" Emperor Qingping waved him to get up and answer, and asked. "Mr. Yongning is my subordinate. If something happens to his eldest son, I will definitely take your head."

I wish the imperial physician touched his forehead to the ground: "Return to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness's illness, even this humble minister is helpless!"

Emperor Qingping's complexion changed.

"You can't do anything?" he said angrily. "But it's just cold, and there's nothing you can do about it. What's the use of the Tai Hospital supporting you!"

The imperial physician Zhu hurriedly kowtowed: "Return to Your Majesty! Your Royal Highness's illness is clearly not a cold!"

Emperor Qingping asked: "What is that?"

Imperial Physician Zhu raised his head tremblingly, and exchanged glances with Ling Fu, who was waiting behind Emperor Qingping, calmly.

"Your Highness's symptoms... should be due to being restrained by filth, or to being hit by evil spirits!"

The word "evil evil" was settled, and needles could be heard throughout the palace.

Emperor Qingping frowned slowly, and asked in a deep voice after a while: "...What did you say?"

The imperial doctor Zhu repeated it tremblingly.

"Wei Chen said, His Highness, this is... that he bumped into Xie Chong."

Ling Fu shook his hand, and the teapot in his hand spilled a piece of water on the table.

Emperor Qingping looked up at him, and saw that the pupils of Lingfu standing beside him trembled, and whispered: "Your Majesty, on that day in Laba... Qin Tianjian!"

When he said this, he looked frightened and frightened, as if he didn't dare to say what came next.

But he didn't need to say it, Emperor Qingping knew what he was talking about.

On the day of Laba, Qin Tianjian said that if the evil star changes, disaster will happen.And Ling Tailang's estimated time limit for the disaster is before the new year.

Today is the thirtieth day of the twelfth lunar month, which is the last day before the new year.

Emperor Qingping could barely hold the teacup in his hand.

Since this is the case, the evil that Jun Huailang collided with...couldn't be Xue Yan.

He was already in Mingluan Palace with Xue Yan, and he was close, but he was not a royal heir with a real dragon protecting him.A few days ago, it was heard that he had nightmare symptoms, but today, he also went out alone with Xue Yan, and that's why he ran into it.

Emperor Qingping fell silent.

"Is what you said true?" A moment later, Emperor Qingping said in a deep voice. "If there is half a lie, I will punish your nine clans."

Zhu Taiyi kowtowed deeply to show his sincerity that he did not dare to deceive the emperor.

"Then what do you say?" Emperor Qingping asked again.

The doctor Zhu kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty can send someone to the Qin Tianjian to see who has the ability to exorcise evil spirits."

At this moment, Ling Fu bowed and whispered to Emperor Qingping: "Your Majesty, why don't you invite Ling Tailang?"

Emperor Qingping looked up at him.

Seeing Ling Fu said: "Your Majesty, this hexagram image was taken up by Lingtai Lang. The servant also heard that he also learned the ability to cure diseases when he traveled with his master Shangxuan Zhenren. I heard that the talisman he burned You only need to pour a bowl of water into someone, and all difficult and miscellaneous diseases can be cured, and evil spirits can't get close."

Emperor Qingping asked: "Really?"

Ling Fu had served him for so many years, and one look could tell that Emperor Qingping was moved.

He nodded quickly: "Your Majesty will know when he is summoned."

When Emperor Qingping heard the words, he lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then nodded.

Just at this moment, the eunuch's notice came from the door: "Your Majesty, His Highness the Fifth Highness begs to see you."

For a moment, the expressions of several people in the palace changed.

Ling Fu and Imperial Physician Zhu glanced at each other quickly, and then turned their eyes to Emperor Qingping.

Seeing that Emperor Qingping's expression changed, he said, "Let him in."

The little eunuch agreed and brought Xue Yan in.

The robe on his body has not been changed yet, but it is already half dry after being smoked in the room with earth dragons for half the night.It's just that from a distance, it's still in a state of embarrassment, and at a glance, it's clear that it's fallen into the water.

Emperor Qingping was inexplicably guilty.

As long as he paid attention to his appearance for the first time, it would be very difficult for Emperor Qingping to separate Xue Yan from Concubine Rong.As soon as he saw him, he would reflexively think of Concubine Rong's voice and smile back then, and if he looked at him a few more times, he would find that he resembled Concubine Rong in some ways.

Xue Yan knelt down in front of Emperor Qingping.

"Get up." Emperor Qingping said. "Looking for me at night, what's the matter?"

Xue Yan raised his head and looked at him with a calm expression, without any hint of arrogance, but there was an air of being neither humble nor overbearing to the bone.

"Going back to Emperor Father, I just heard from Imperial Physician Zhu that the son of Duke Yongning has fallen into an evil spirit, so I came here to see Emperor Father."

No one expected that he would tell this matter openly and personally.

Even if you want to say this, it is enough for everyone to know it well. Naturally, you can't put it on the table like this and say it openly.

Emperor Qingping, who had just made up his mind to pour talisman water into Jun Huailang, was a little embarrassed, cleared his throat, and said, "It's just a random guess, it can't be true..."

Xue Yan, however, acted as if he hadn't heard it, and continued: "I know that I am the only one who has evil spirits in the palace, so the strange illness of Prince Yongning must be caused by my son."

He spoke lightly but firmly, which actually made Emperor Qingping feel a little uncomfortable.

How could a child say so bluntly that he was evil?

What's more, Dayong originally emphasized Confucianism and despised Buddhism and Taoism.Emperor Qingping was superstitious, and it was fine to talk about it in private with people who knew what he knew. If he really taught the person to speak out, it would appear that he was absurd.

Emperor Qingping naturally didn't want to admit that he was absurd, and he was embarrassed for a while and didn't know how to deal with it.

Then, he saw Xue Yan leaned over and kowtowed to him.

"I ask for an order to go to the Buddhist hall in the palace and copy the "Sutra of Era" a hundred times for the prince of Yongning, to find out that there is evil in the body of the prince. The prince of Yongning still takes medicine. If he still cannot be cured tomorrow, the minister will ask his father again The emperor apologizes."

Emperor Qingping froze in place.

He heard Xue Yan go on to say: "If there is even the slightest mistake, I will bear it all."

Emperor Qingping was speechless for a moment.

He had to admit that the one kneeling there was his and Concubine Rong's only child.But this child was treated harshly by the heavens, and he must have become a evil star who came into the world, and he was born to teach him that father and son would harm each other.

Now that he asked himself so much, Emperor Qingping couldn't say no to it.

After a moment, he said, "As you said. Go."

Ling Fu next to him was startled, took another look at Imperial Physician Zhu, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, that Ling Tailang...?"

Emperor Qingping waved his hand.

"Wait until tomorrow, if it doesn't get any better, then invite him." He said.

In fact, he was gambling in his heart, wanting to see if this method of copying the "Du Er Jing" could calm the evil spirits in Xue Yan.

If it is really possible, isn't there nothing to be afraid of?

He didn't see it, and Ling Fu, who was beside him, glanced nervously at Imperial Physician Zhu, and Imperial Physician Zhu returned him a reassuring look.

But all of this fell into Xue Yan's eyes.

Those eyes seemed to be calm and unwavering, but in the bottomless depths, there were frightening stormy waves.
