The Way of the Consort

Chapter 41 Prayers

Cheng Shen asked again later, and learned something about what happened when the two of them were away. It turned out that there really was such a box of candies.

After getting off the carriage, Zong Zhen deliberately didn't take it, but Ji Zhao was not happy, so they all got out of the carriage, climbed up to take it off himself, and forcibly handed it to their highness.So their Highness had no choice but to accept it, and handed it to the entourage behind him.

The guards were terrified last night, but now they all came back to their senses, and the man immediately found the box of candies and brought them over.

Baoqing opened it and looked, it was not broken, he tasted one, and it was fine, so he went in holding the box.

Zong Zhen was buried in his book, didn't say anything, just told him to put it on the table, after Bao Qing put it away, he retreated.

After reading the page he was looking at, Zong Zhen looked up at the box of candy, dragged it in front of him, opened the lid, and there was a box of ivory-colored candy, all round.Zong Zhen twisted one and threw it into his mouth, his mouth full of sweetness.

He saw the image of Ji Zhao bending down to pour sugar into his purse desperately, and he couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, but he didn't realize it.

Just smiling, he felt something was wrong again, and some fragments flashed in his mind, but he couldn't grasp it. During his coma last night, he seemed to have tasted other pear-flavored things, but it was not sugar cubes. but soft...

What is it?

Zongzhen thought about it, but he couldn't figure it out. He never left any doubts, and he had to ask the bottom line.

He immediately called the guards from last night to come in and told them to tell him in detail what happened after he fell into the water yesterday.

Several people began to say that Zong Zhen sounded normal, but it was still not right, his feeling was not wrong.

He asked, "What did I eat last night? Can someone give me medicine?"

Several people thought of the incident where the son-in-law held their highness's nose and kissed them... Unanimously, they lowered their heads even lower.

This is obviously a problem!

Zong Zhen threw the book in his hand on the table, but he didn't use much strength, and he was very dignified. Everyone felt cold, and they were about to kneel before they knew it.

Zong Zhen said: "Stop kneeling, come on, is Ji Zhao feeding me some weird things again?"

It's normal, Ji Zhao's behavior in this life is often like a strange flower in the forest.

"Reporting to Your Highness...the son-in-law never fed His Highness anything..."

"Then what are you afraid to say?"

"Uh……"

"Say……"

The leader trembled and said: "Reporting to Your Highness, just, just... At that time, His Highness spit out the water he choked in, but was still unconscious, and the son-in-law rushed over suddenly... The son-in-law pinched His Highness's nose, just... ...uh...just..."

Zong Zhen said coldly: "Just what?"

What is there to hide from him? !

The leader's heart was hardened, and he knelt down on the ground, and the others behind him knelt with him, and he whispered: "The son-in-law will kiss His Highness..."

"... "

Several guards came out of the study wiping their sweat. Bao Qing and Cheng Shen stood in the corridor, seeing this, they asked, "What did Your Highness say?"

If they could say it normally, they would not be stingy to talk to these two high officials, but today they really can't say it!His Highness's face turned dark, and he glanced at them, saying that if other people know about this, they will be killed!

A few of them slipped away immediately.

Bao Qing and Cheng Shen looked at each other, but they were even more curious.

Zong Zhen sat behind the desk with a gloomy expression until Doctor Luo came to feel his pulse.

He stretched out his hand, Doctor Luo apologized, sat down beside him, took his pulse, and then asked him a few words, comfortingly said: "Your Highness has recovered very well this time, it seems that strengthening your body is indeed useful."

Bao Qing and Cheng Shen were very happy when they heard this.

Only then did Zong Zhen smile a little. Thinking of that incident, he took a look at the two of them, and they both retreated immediately. Doctor Luo became nervous, why did he push back everyone?He stood up unknowingly, bent over, and dared not speak.

Zong Zhen thought for a moment, then asked: "Doctor Luo, if one person's breathing is stagnant, and another person breathes into his mouth, can it be saved?"

Hearing such a question, Royal Doctor Luo became less nervous. He contemplated for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, I have practiced medicine for many years, but I have never seen such a cure. It makes sense to hear His Highness mention it now. Rong Chen will go back and think about it for a few days before replying to His Highness."

Zong Zhen's heart suddenly relaxed. When the guards said those words earlier, he felt that the hairs all over his body were about to stand on end.

Is it disgust?Is it fear?or something else?

He didn't know, he couldn't describe it. In short, this matter made him very worried. Who knew what Ji Zhao was thinking?

Ji Zhao in this life is really weird.

However, the guards also said that the son-in-law blew straight into his mouth, and after a while, his breathing was indeed much smoother and he became conscious. If it was really to save him, he could barely accept it.

Zong Zhen deliberately put this matter behind him, and just happened to have heard of the stampede, so he put down his book and went to Yanfu Hall.

Renzong discussed matters with several prime ministers in the study, and Zongzhen sat drinking tea in the bedroom and waited for him.

After waiting for a while, Xiang Sheng came over: "Your Highness, the son-in-law is here."

Zong Zhen looked up in surprise.

Xiang Sheng said: "Your Majesty said that the matter of the son-in-law should be left to His Highness. Will His Highness meet here, or return to the East Palace?"

"Don't worry about it, let him come in."

"Yes……"

Zongzhen walked behind the screen and took a sip of tea. He was really astonished. Last time he asked Ji Zhao to kneel for an hour, and he was so wronged that he said those outrageous words. Even for the big and small banquets during the New Year's Eve, Ji Zhao didn't come into the palace again. Everyone else thought that entering the palace was Rong En, but only Ji Zhao wished not to come in again. He still thought that Ji Zhao would never enter the palace on his own initiative.

It's just that, I don't know what to toss this time.

Thinking to himself, Ji Zhao has already arrived, unlike the usual slow walk, Ji Zhao is walking fast this time, he must know that he is behind the screen, Ji Zhao comes in and salutes: "Ji Zhao has met His Highness the Crown Prince."

The tone is good and honest.

Zong Zhen repeatedly said "rare" in his heart, put down the teacup, cleared his throat, and asked calmly, "Why did you enter the palace?"

Ji Zhao was not angry at all, and continued to say honestly and obediently: "Return to Your Highness, Ji Zhao wants to live outside the city for half a month."

Zong Zhen frowned, why did he want to go out to play again?

Ji Zhao explained: "I don't want to go to Zhuangzi to play, I want to go to Dabaoen Temple."

The more he listened, the more confused he became, Zongzhen asked bluntly: "What are you going to do in the temple, and you have to stay for half a month?" Then he taught him, "I'm still thinking about going out to play all day long!"

Ji Zhao bowed his head and remained silent.

Seeing him like this, Zong Zhen felt a little confused, and couldn't bear to speak harshly to him anymore, picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, before saying: "I don't agree to this matter, let's back down."

It's still cold, Dabao'en Temple is on the top of the mountain, it's very wild, honestly let him stay in the city!Don't be full of illnesses at that time, so tired that the father and Fuchen are worried about him, and if they don't do serious things, they will know how to toss people all day long.

Ji Zhao didn't leave, didn't speak, and continued to lower his head.

"Speak..." Zong Zhen said coldly.

Only then did Ji Zhao whisper with a bit of pleading in his voice, "I want to go to the temple to pray for people."

Zong Zhen sneered: "You want to go out to play by yourself, just make up excuses. You pray for blessings, who are you praying for? Fu Chen is in good health, are you praying for yourself? You—"

As Zong Zhen talked, he also shut up. He suddenly had a guess.

Ji Zhao has already continued: "I have a friend who is sick, and I want to pray for him."

"... "

All of a sudden, Zong Zhen felt that his mouth, his hands, and even his whole body felt uncomfortable.

Ji Zhao raised his head, "looked" at him, and begged, "Your Highness, I made a mistake last time. I will never talk nonsense again. I will definitely listen to you in the future. I am indeed not going out to play this time. My friend is very sick. Heavy, I'm worried about him."

As he said that, he watched Ji Zhao want to kneel down to him, and he was startled, and suddenly said, "Don't move!"

Ji Zhao looked at him puzzled.

Zong Zhen's uncomfortable feeling of having nowhere to rest became more and more intense, and he and Ji Zhao looked at each other for a long time through the screen.

"Your Highness..."

Ji Zhao called him again, and Zong Zhen came back to his senses. He was still looking at Ji Zhao, and he didn't know how much emotion was in his eyes.

"I stayed in the temple for half a month, really, I promise not to run around!"

Zong Zhen was thinking, Ji Zhao really doesn't know, is he really him, Ji Zhao really doesn't know at all?How did Ji Zhao, who killed him with a smile in his previous life, have such a face now?

But his body has already made a decision before his head.

"I promise..."

It was Ji Zhao who raised his head in surprise, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

Only then did he realize that it was indeed he who said the words just now.

"Thank you Your Highness! Then I will take my leave!"

Zongzhen was in the dark and Ji Zhao was in the light. The screen was not very thick, and he could clearly see the joyful smile bursting out on Ji Zhao's face in an instant.

Ji Zhao left after finishing speaking, Zong Zhen's face was a little bit dumbfounded, a bit helpless, and a bit of emotion that he couldn't express himself.

Ji Zhao also walked quickly, Bao Qing came in and said, "Your Highness, the son-in-law is gone." He laughed again, "The son-in-law is very happy, walking with wind."

Zong Zhen nodded, indicating that he understood.

Bao Qing said again: "The jade pendant worn by the son-in-law today seems to be your highness's new one..."

"... "

Do you really like it so much?

Zong Zhen shook his head and sighed secretly.

About entering the palace, Ji Zhao didn't hesitate at all, he knew that if he entered the palace, the emperor would definitely throw him to the prince.

Although he still hates the prince and thinks the prince is not a good person, but in order to go to the temple, isn't he going to the palace to give the prince a soft look?What a big deal!

He even thought that the crown prince would not agree, and even thought about the way out. If it was impossible, he insisted on meeting His Majesty the Emperor, or bringing the princess to rescue the soldiers. Anyway, he must go to the temple to pray for that brother.

He had already returned home, and he didn't know how the other person was doing. There was nothing he could do, the only thing he could do was to pray for blessings.If he didn't believe in this in his previous life, but he was able to come back from the dead and travel through time, there is no room for disbelief, maybe God can really hear his wish and make that brother get better sooner.

Unexpectedly, today is so smooth, the prince actually agreed!

When Ji Zhao came out of the palace, Chen Xing immediately ran over and asked, "Mr. Lang, what did the prince say?!"

Yin Ming said with a smile: "Seeing the smile on Lang Jun's face, do you agree?"

"Well! Let's go!"

When Ji Zhao came, he packed up his things and brought them here to show his sincerity. He just brought a few books, some clothes, and the usual bedding and tea sets. He brought nothing beside him, except Yin Ming. Past with Dust Star.

After leaving the palace, they waved their whips and drove the carriage to the Dabaoen Temple outside the city.

At night, the person following Ji Zhao told Zong Zhen that the son-in-law had arrived, and told him one thing: "When the son-in-law was leaving the city today, he met He Qiniang who happened to be going to the Dabaoen Temple."

"He Qiniang?" Why did Zong Zhen feel that this name sounded so familiar.

"It's the little widow from last time."

Zong Zhen's eyes narrowed. If there are too many coincidences, then it is no longer a coincidence.

He asked, "What does the son-in-law say?"

"The little ones didn't dare to get too close at that time, they only dared to look at it from a distance. The son-in-law seemed to be in a hurry, and didn't talk to He Qiniang much, so he left in a hurry. He Qiniang's carriage was always attached to them. Behind you. Your Highness, you also know that the incense in the Dabaoen Temple is the most prosperous, and our princess lights the lamps for the empress there, and I go there several times a year.

Now it's New Year's Day, there are more people, and the rooms have already been fully booked. The son-in-law passed this time and did not say hello in advance. When he arrived at the place, the abbot didn't know that the son-in-law was coming, so he arranged the son-in-law to live in a clean place on the back mountain.He Qiniang followed the son-in-law, and the Zhike monk also vacated a room for her for the sake of the son-in-law. "

"This He Qiniang is a bit interesting." Usually, there is really no such person in his eyes. At this point, Zong Zhen will not simply think that Ji Zhao has an affair with this woman. Even if he does have an affair, it is not obvious. The kind of "legs" on the face.

He said: "Go and check her again, and keep an eye on this He Qiniang."

"Yes!"
