spring and autumn officials

Qi Lu couldn't taste the fishy and salty porridge at all.

Ji Lin was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It must be that the cooking of the widow is too unpalatable. It's okay, the grand master, the widow just asks someone to serve the dishes made by Gongsun Hua, and I will definitely be able to taste it."

As he spoke, he immediately said to the eunuch, "Go, bring some food from the dining room."

"Your servant respects you." The eunuch moved swiftly and left the camp quickly.

Even though Ji Lin said that, he was no less anxious and worried than Qi Lu, but Qi Lu was injured, so Ji Lin had to be calmer than Qi Lu, not to make Qi Lu worry.

Qi Lu frowned slightly, as if he was still reminiscing about the porridge just now. He knew that the porridge contained meat, vegetables, and some seafood. If it was not cooked well, it would definitely be fishy and salty, but Qi Lu In the mouth, there is really no taste at all, not only there is no fragrance of porridge water, even the saltiness can't be tasted.

Seeing that he was frowning all the time, Ji Lin comforted him, "Teacher, it's all right, don't be so nervous."

The eunuch quickly brought over the meal specially prepared by Gongsun Hua for Qi Lv, some porridge, water, and side dishes, all of which looked very bland.

Ji Lin quickly took it, scooped up another spoonful of porridge water, blew it cool, put it on Qi Lu's lips, and said, "Come on, Tai Tuo, try it again."

Qi Lu immediately ate the porridge and water, and then his face became more solemn, he didn't speak, and shook his head slightly.

Ji Lin thumped in his heart, but he didn't give up, and added some side dishes with chopsticks. These side dishes were eaten with porridge and water. Pickled vegetables in the Spring and Autumn Period were a must. The aristocrats of the mines could not use ice to store food excessively, so this kind of high-salt pickles were developed to the extreme, which was much more abundant than modern pickles.

Ji Lin gave Qi Lu a piece of pork belly, which is marinated pork shoulder, and brought it to Qi Lu's lips. Qi Lu opened his mouth to eat with a serious face, but he still didn't speak.

Ji Lin didn't even need to ask, he knew that Qi Lu must still not taste the taste. If the porridge is salty or watery, it is possible, but the pickled vegetables cannot be watery. , if the white mouth food must be called water, and Qi Lu eats it in his mouth, his expression does not change at all.

Ji Lin put down all the meals, and with a rather ugly face, he said to the eunuch, "Go to the medical officer, come here immediately."

"Yes, yes!" The eunuch responded quickly, and ran all the way out of the camp to find the medical officer.

Ji Lin comforted Qi Lv and said, "It must be because Tai Tuo is always feverish these days, so Tai Tu don't need to worry too much, wait for the medical officer to check, maybe the fever subsides, and the illness will be cured. "

Indeed, sometimes fever means no appetite, no taste in the mouth, and even a bit bitter.

But when Qi Lu listened to Ji Lin's consolation, he didn't feel at ease at all. It was not for any other reason, because the tasteless taste in his mouth was not at all the same as the bitter mouth feeling when he was sick. tasteless.

The medical officer rushed over quickly, and Ji Lin said with a gloomy face, "Hurry up, take Taifu's pulse."

The medical officer quickly checked Qi Lu's pulse, and asked about Qi Lu's symptoms. Seeing that he was still silent, Ji Lin said, "What's the problem?"

The medical officer was a little hesitant, and said: "This... Son of Heaven, there should be nothing wrong with Taifu's body. I didn't diagnose anything, but he was a little weak. Maybe it was caused by prolonged fever. Take good care of your body, you should... your sense of taste should also recover."

What the medical officer said was ambiguous, because the medical officer himself was not sure, and the result of the pulse diagnosis for Qi Lu was only a little weak. After all, Qi Lu had a fever for several days, intermittently, the fever subsided for a while, and the fever returned for a while. Fever is definitely unbearable, and it will indeed cause some uncomfortable symptoms, but the medical officer has never seen such a thing as a complete loss of taste.

In fact, it's not bad for a medical officer. After all, medical skills in this era are quite backward. Many times, medical skills are considered witchcraft, but witchcraft is a serious medical skill.

The medical officer could only prescribe some prescriptions for Qi Lu to invigorate qi and nourish blood, adjusted the medicinal materials, and quickly withdrew them.

The medical officers were helpless, and Ji Lin had no choice but to continue to comfort Qi Lv, saying, "Teacher rests at ease, and everything will be fine when he recovers."

Qi Lu frowned slightly, if he lost his sense of taste in the future, let alone cooking, he would not even enjoy the delicious food.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Ji Lin kissed Qi Lu's forehead and said, "Good boy, even if it tastes bad, you have to eat some more. Don't be hungry. Listen to the doctor's advice and take a good rest."

Although Qi Lu didn't have much appetite, he still nodded. Ji Lin fed him porridge himself. After eating half a bowl, Qi Lu couldn't eat anymore. Then Ji Lin stood up and put the bronze beans beside him.

Just as Ji Lin stood up, he suddenly felt dizzy. With a shake of his body, the bronze bean came out with a "bang--" and was directly buckled on the ground. There was still some unfinished porridge in it, and it was all spilled It came out, and part of it was buckled on the back of the emperor's hand.

"Son of Heaven?!" Qi Lu was taken aback, and hurriedly struggled to help Ji Lin, and the two almost fell to the ground together.

Ji Lin was only briefly dizzy, and the back of his hand felt hot. The pain quickly brought him back to consciousness. When he came back to his senses, he saw Qi Lu strenuously supporting himself, so he quickly stood up straight and hugged Qi Lu up. , put him back on the couch.

Qi Lu said worriedly, "Son, are you feeling unwell?"

Ji Lin was dizzy for a short time just now, but he didn't take it seriously, and said, "It's okay, maybe it's because I've been sitting for too long, and I feel a little dizzy when I stand up suddenly."

Qi Lu said again, "Did you burn your hand?"

Ji Lin shook his hands and said with a smile: "It's okay, I have rough skin and thick flesh, and the porridge is almost cold."

Ji Lin called the eunuch, cleaned up the porridge on the ground, cleaned the mat, and stayed by Qi Lu's side, not leaving.

Qi Lv said worriedly: "In a few days, we will meet again. The Son of Heaven has been adhering to the law, and his body can't take it anymore. Let's go back and rest."

Ji Lin shook his head, Qi Lu insisted, "Lu is really fine, I'm going to rest now, I don't need anyone to watch me when I sleep, the emperor will go back."

Qi Lu was worried about Ji Lin's health, and there must be no trouble in the alliance, so he insisted on coaxing Ji Lin back. Ji Lin really felt a little uncomfortable, so he went back, and was going to guard Qi Lu after turning into a little dog in the middle of the night. .

Qi Lu waited for Ji Lin to leave, then fell asleep by himself, and slept until night, maybe because he had too much rest during the day, he suddenly woke up at night and couldn't fall asleep anyway.

Qi Lu opened his eyes, heard the sound of "rustling rustling", turned his head to look, it turned out that the little dog woke up.The dog son of his family is a night owl and always sleeps during the day and wakes up at night. Qi Lu has already figured out the living habits of the dog son, so he doesn't take it seriously.

Qi Lu used to sleep soundly at night, but now that Qi Lu slept too much, he turned over and lay on his side on the couch, looking at the busy little dog.

The little dog has always been a "human/wife" attribute. After waking up, he quickly jumped to the bed, grabbed Qi Lu's shoes with his small paws, straightened the shoes, and placed them in front of the bed, so that Qi Lu could put them on directly when he was in bed. No need to turn the toe.

The little dog didn't notice that Qi Lu had woken up, and was secretly looking at himself. After he straightened his shoes, he raised his head and looked around, cleaning up here and there, for fear that Qi Lu would be tripped at night , When everything is packed, sit next to the desk.

Qi Lu knew that the little dog was very spiritual, and he used to tidy up his clothes, etc., so he didn't take it seriously, but soon, Qi Lu saw the little dog sitting next to the table, and it was indeed sitting , not lying next to the table.

The little dog's butt was sitting on the mat, its two small front legs rested on the table, and its fleshy paws groped the table several times. Although the movements were a bit clumsy, it quickly picked up the table Letters stacked on top.

Those bamboo slips were left by the emperor, because he took care of Qi Lu these days, and when Qi Lu fell asleep, the emperor would take time to look at the official documents, so there were a lot of bamboo slips piled up on the case table.

The bamboo slips were rolled up and stacked neatly, and Qi Lu saw that the little soil dog first picked up a roll of bamboo slips with its small paws, and the little furry paws, Barabala, unfolded the slips, and after a glance, it seemed that the little soil dog didn't want it. Seeing it, he used his small paws to roll up the bamboo slips, and the rolls were neat and tidy!

Qi Lu was surprised for a while, and couldn't help but secretly peeped at the little dog.

The little dog rolled up the bamboo slips, but did not put them back, but put them on the other side of the table, and did the same thing, pulling another roll of bamboo slips, just like before, rolled them up again, and put them on the other side, so that After picking and picking for a while, the little dog seemed to have finally found the bamboo slips he was looking for.

The little local dog sat on the ground with two small hind legs, supporting the small waist, holding the bamboo slips with two small paws, while looking decently at the same time, shaking his little head, not only shaking his little head, but even The little feet and the little tail had nowhere to rest, and they swayed together.

There are no stools these days, and the seats are all mats, the kind that throw themselves on the ground, so the table is relatively short. Although the little dog is short in stature, sitting on the ground with a straight back, it can barely show a small head. The little soil dog propped up the bamboo slips with its two paws, and looking from Qi Lu's direction, the dog's son's little head was almost completely blocked.

Just when Qi Lu was surprised, there was something even more surprising. The little dog looked at the slips for a while, looked decent, and put the slips aside. This time, instead of rolling them up, he opened another one Small sheepskin roll, open the small sheepskin, there is a map on it, while reading bamboo slips, at the same time, I patted the map with my small paws.

Qi Lv was surprised for a while, and thought that his dog son was no longer the smart type, did he become a genius?

Qi Lu was lying on the couch, and the little dog sat on the mat without making a sound, silently looking at the bamboo slips, Qi Lu observed for a while, because he was still having a low fever, he was soon swept away by sleepiness, Staring at the little dog reading, hypnotized as if he was reading, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, he slowly closed his eyes, and fell into sleep.

Ji Lin was totally unaware that he was being watched, and was still reading paperwork to pass the time. He watched Qi Lv all night, and when it was almost morning, he stood up with his case in hand, rolled up all the paperwork with his little claws, and laid it out again. Put it back in its original position.

The sun shone on Qi Lu's eyelids, Qi Lu opened his eyes, his first reaction was to look at the case table, but there were no little dogs beside the case table, and the paperwork on the case table was piled up one by one, all from yesterday When Ji Lin left, he didn't separate the two stacks, and he didn't even unfold the lambskin map.

Qi Lu looked back at the little dog lying on the edge of his couch, sleeping soundly, rubbed his eyes, and murmured, "I'm afraid I had a strange dream..."

Qi Lu had been suffering from fever intermittently, and after a few days of recuperation, the fever finally subsided, but his sense of taste did not recover, and he still couldn't taste it.

The cooks didn't know what happened, they just felt that the Taifu was sick these days, it seemed that they seldom came to the dining room, and they didn't see the Taifu much.

The date of the alliance is approaching, today is the day of sacrifice for the alliance ceremony, Qi Lv opened his eyes, and he washed and changed his clothes with Yang Jian, and brought him a breakfast, Qi Lv ate the breakfast very calmly.

Yan Yangjian said hesitantly: "Teacher, have you tasted anything today?"

Qi Lu's expression was very calm, and he smiled, and said: "It seems that I have tasted something, and it is really because of illness. I will raise it for a few more days. I am afraid that it will recover, and I can feed the lamb again." Let's make snacks."

Qi Lu said that he could taste a little taste, but Yang Yangjian didn't show the slightest expression of joy, so he added a cloak to Qi Lu, and Qi Lu left the tent, ready to go to the tent of the Son of Heaven, and attend the meeting together Union.

Yan Yangjian watched Qi Lu leave, stood at the door of the camp, and sighed softly. Shi Hou happened to pass by, and said, "How can you sigh? The Tai Tuo has recovered well these days, and I can taste something, isn't it a good thing?" ?”

Yan Yangjian said lightly: "Teacher doesn't like to eat ginger on weekdays."

Shi Hou didn't understand what he was talking about, and the words of Lu Yangjian seemed a bit puzzling.

Yan Yangjian continued: "These days the Taifu always said that he has recovered a little bit, and he has recovered a little bit, but the Taifu usually doesn't like ginger..."

Qi Lu, like Ji Lin, doesn't eat ginger. In fact, he also eats ginger, but he doesn't eat ginger in stir-fry, and Jiang Qilu in porridge.

Yan Yangjian said: "Zheng Gongsun added some chopped ginger to today's porridge, which is very spicy. If the master really recovers, he will definitely be able to taste the taste..."

What Qi Lu just said was obviously prevarication...

When Qi Lu came out of the tent, the cold wind of early winter was blowing on Qi Lu's cheeks. Although he was wearing thick clothes and added a cloak, the cold wind almost blown through Qi Lu, making his heart feel a little chilly.

Qi Lu breathed a sigh of relief after walking out of the tent. He was indeed prevaricating because he knew that during the days when he was sick, everyone was surrounding him, and everyone was doing their best. Only Qi Lu's own sense of taste No effort, still can't taste anything.

Qi Lu pursed his lips, squinted his eyes, took a deep breath, seemed to be sorting out his mentality, and walked towards the emperor's camp.

The eunuch lifted up the curtain of the emperor's tent, Qi Lv walked in, just in time to see Ji Lin sitting on the table reviewing the documents, and the alliance was about to be held, but the emperor's documents had not yet been approved, so he wanted to take advantage of the meeting Check it out before signing up.

The Son of Heaven was dressed in a black court gown, with a crown on his head, which set off his face like a crown of jade. He was sitting on the mat, and even when he was sitting, he was meticulous.

Qi Lu saw the Son of Heaven reviewing the documents at a glance, and for some reason, suddenly overlapped the figures of the little dog and the Son of Heaven that he "dreamed about" that day. The sitting posture of the document is exactly the same.

When Ji Lin saw Qi Lu walk in, he smiled and said, "Teacher looks good today?"

Qi Lu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, the Son of Heaven, for your concern. Lu has recovered."

Ji Lin nodded, put down the paperwork in his hand and stood up. As soon as he got up, he suddenly felt dizzy again, just like the feeling of overturning porridge that day. The dizziness suddenly swept over Ji Lin's body overhead.

"Heaven!"

Ji Lin vaguely heard someone screaming in his ears, dizziness caused Ji Lin to faint for a moment, and soon opened his eyes, and saw Qi Lu supporting him, and he was pressing on Qi Lu, the two of them almost fell to the ground.

The Son of Heaven was tall, and when he suddenly flashed, Qi Lu rushed up and hugged Ji Lin, but because Ji Lin was too tall, Qi Lu was taken by him and bumped into the desk next to him, "Bang!" All the paperwork on the case table fell to the ground and scattered a piece.

Ji Lin came back to his senses, straightened up quickly, helped Qi Lu up, and said, "Teacher, is everything alright?"

Qi Lu immediately said: "Son of Heaven, this is what Lu should have said. Is the Son of Heaven okay? His complexion seems bad."

Ji Lin shook his head, the short-term dizziness subsided quickly, and he returned to normal, saying: "It's nothing, I just sat for too long, and I suddenly felt dizzy."

Qi Lu frowned and said, "If Lu remembers correctly, the Son of Heaven was also a little dizzy last time, but have you checked with a medical officer?"

Seeing that he cared about her, Ji Lin whispered in Qi Lu's ear, "I know that the Taifu cares about Lin'er the most. Lin'er has the heart to get sick. I've checked with a medical officer. There's nothing wrong."

The medical officer checked Ji Lin's pulse, and there was no major problem, maybe he was a little tired, so he prescribed a prescription for the emperor.

Ji Lin said, "Let's go, the alliance is about to begin."

Today is the first day of the alliance. There are not too many tasks for offering sacrifices to heaven and earth. It is enough to perform sacrifices at an auspicious time and then be courteous to the monarchs. The specific regulations to be discussed by the alliance will be held at the alliance tomorrow. .

Ji Lin and Qi Lu walked out of the camp and came to the empty field of the League. Like last time, several large flags were planted around the altar. The empty field was already full of dignitaries from various countries. Next, wait for the emperor, and climb up the altar to worship the sky together.

The Lord of the Lu Kingdom, Duke Quwo and the Marquis of Jin were already waiting, and when they saw the Son of Heaven coming out, they all stepped forward to greet him immediately.

Duke Quwo complimented him very much, and said with a smile: "Today's meeting, the emperor please go first."

Ji Lin was wearing a black robe and a black cloak over his shoulders. Under the cold winter wind, he had a tall and straight posture, revealing the majesty of a king in his bones, although Ji Lin was the youngest among these monarchs , but the nobility and majesty are not bad at all.

Qi Lu stood under the altar with the senior officials, watching Ji Lin and the monarch compliment each other. Amidst a series of compliments, Ji Lin, as the Son of Heaven, was the first to step onto the altar. Lifting the hem of her black clothes, she walked steadily along the high platform and climbed up step by step. As Ji Lin climbed up to the altar step by step, everyone's eyes gradually showed a posture of looking up.

Qi Lu sighed in his heart, the boyfriend he chose was not ordinary, not only good-looking, well-worth, but also good-looking, looking up from under the altar, it even set off Ji Lin's long legs, even though he was wearing loose clothes Moreover, the winter weather is very cold, and the robes are relatively thick, but it is still difficult to hide Ji Lin's long legs that defy the sky.

Qi Lu was sighing, and suddenly frowned, maybe it was Qi Lu's illusion, the steps of the emperor on the altar suddenly paused, a little strange.

Just when Qi Lu was suspicious, he suddenly heard a loud shout erupting from his side: "Son of Heaven!?"

"Heaven!"

"The Son of Heaven has fallen to the altar!"

Ji Lin, who had been walking steadily just now, suddenly stopped for some reason, followed by his body becoming unstable, and suddenly fell backwards, and immediately rolled down the tall altar.

Ji Lin was the first to climb up the altar, and the altar is divided into two steps, one step and one step. The step is the east step. Not ordinary people can climb the step. When offering sacrifices, the king will Climbing up the steps to preside over the sacrifice, but as a minister, he can only climb up the altar from the steps.

Duke Quwo and the Marquis of Jin are both courtiers of the Emperor of Zhou, so especially Duke Quwo, who has not yet been conferred by the Emperor of Zhou, is exactly the canonization. Strictly speaking, the Kingdom of Jin is under the Emperor, and Quwo is under the Kingdom of Jin, so Duke Wo of Quwo and Marquis of Jin did not have the right to climb the ranks in front of the emperor.

Lu State is from Chidi, and does not obey the discipline of Zhou Tianzi, but now Lu State is here to seek peace and alliance, so he cannot ascend the 阼级. In this way, only Ji Lin is on the 阼级, and the others The three monarchs all went up from the guest steps.

Ji Lin suddenly fell from the stairs, and the three kings were all on the side steps, so there was no way to rescue Ji Lin, and the officials standing under the altar were beyond their reach.

Qi Lu's heart rose to his throat in an instant, and the Son of Heaven was about to climb to the top of the altar when he suddenly fell from the steps and rolled up the steps quickly, without any struggle, he rolled down directly.

"Emperor—!"

"Where is the doctor!"

"The Son of Heaven has fallen!"

The crowd burst into a commotion, and Qi Lu's face turned pale with fright. As the crowd rushed up, he saw bloodstains scattered on the steps. The entire face was pale, with multiple bruises on the forehead and cheeks, and blood rolled down the cheeks.

"Son of Heaven!" Qi Lu rushed over in a hurry, his hands were stained with blood, and no matter how much he shouted, Ji Lin showed no sign of waking up.

The Son of Heaven fell down the steps during the sacrificial offering and passed out. This was an unheard of thing. The scene fell into chaos for a while. Not only the nobles of the Luoshi royal family surrounded him, but also the nobles of several other countries. Coming over, the three monarchs rushed down from the guest steps, and the Marquis of Jin shouted: "My lord, what's wrong with you, my lord!?"

Duke Quwo frowned and shouted repeatedly: "Medical officer! Where is the medical officer?!"

Lu Guojun also looked worried and concerned, and said: "What's wrong with the king of Zhou? Why is he unconscious? Hurry up, the medical officer will come and treat the king of Zhou!"

After Ji Lin fell down, he never woke up. Qi Lu's hands were covered with blood. He heard the shouts of the monarchs around him, narrowed his eyes, and quickly covered Ji Lin's bloody face with his body. No matter what happened to Ji Lin at this time, For this matter, medical officials from other countries are not allowed to come to see him, especially those from Lu State.

Qi Lu immediately calmed down and said: "Don't bother you, the emperor is working hard on state affairs. He contracted a cold a few days ago. It is true that he is not feeling well. It's just a minor ailment... I'm really sorry today. Let’s discuss it another day, please go back to the camp and rest.”

As he said that, he immediately said to Wu Man: "Da Sima, please clean up the situation and send the three monarchs back to the camp."

Wu Man's face was very serious, without any nonsense, he cupped his hands and said, "Yes!"

He said, although his attitude was very respectful, his tone was unquestionable, and said: "Three monarchs, please go back to the camp to rest today."

Everyone heard that Qi Lu was going to clear the scene, Duke Quwo narrowed his eyes slightly, and said obediently: "Yes, the emperor is tired, I should be considerate, please rest assured to recuperate, and the old man will go back first." camp."

Mr. Quwo followed Mr. Quwo, and quickly led the senior officials to leave the empty field of the alliance and return to Quwo's ​​camp.

The Marquis of Jin had fake worries on his face, and said: "The emperor is sick, and the courtiers are very worried. I wonder if I can let the medical officer of Jin Kingdom see the emperor, so that I can go back to the camp with peace of mind."

Qi Lu didn't know what was wrong with Ji Lin, he suddenly fell down from the stairs, and passed out, the situation was unknown, he was very worried, wishing to let the medical officer see him immediately, but there were too many outsiders in front of him , Jinhou can't see a doctor if he doesn't leave.

Qi Lu's face fell, and he said coldly: "Why, does Duke Jin think that Master Luo doesn't have a medical officer?"

The Marquis of Jin was unwilling to leave, but Qi Lu's face was very gloomy. He is usually a "good old man" and never gets angry. His face is so scary today, and the Marquis of Jin is not in a stalemate, especially since Duke Quwo has left. It was useless for him to insist, so he left the altar of the League with a sad face.

Both Duke Quwo and Marquis of Jin left, and the monarch of Lu Guo, an outsider, had nothing to say, so he left after a polite word.

Qi Lu heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Hurry up, take the emperor back to the tent!"

Ji Lin did feel a little uncomfortable these days, but it was very slight, just occasionally dizzy, and he couldn't find anything when he went to the medical officer, so he prescribed some soup and medicine to adjust it. I didn't take it to heart, I just thought about carrying it for two days.

When Ji Lin climbed up the steps of the altar, halfway up, the feeling of dizziness suddenly swept over his mind, and there was a "buzz" in his head, feeling that his body was about to fall, and he quickly forced himself to calm down and stabilize his mind.

The dizziness was the same as the previous two times, and it receded quickly. Ji Lin's footsteps only paused slightly, and then returned to normal, and continued to walk up.

However, what Ji Lin didn't expect was that the feeling of dizziness didn't subside as fast as the previous two times, and it happened for the second time in a row. Just when Ji Lin was about to board the altar, the dizziness swept over again. Bring up a sense of powerlessness.

This feeling is very familiar, like the feeling of turning into a little dog at midnight every day. Ji Lin tried his best to calm himself down, but it was completely useless. His mind was quickly engulfed by the darkness. Dongfeng, "Bang!!" fell heavily on the stairs.

The altar is tall, and the steps are long and trembling. Ji Lin lost consciousness first, and then fell down the steps. Therefore, he was completely unconscious when he fell, and naturally he could not save himself. He quickly rolled down the steps. His face was covered in blood...

"Aw... aww?"

In the dim Tai Tuo's camp, a small dog with a thick head and a thick head suddenly raised its small head, shook its big ears, and barked twice in a milky voice.

The little dog turned over suddenly, looked down at his little paws, "Wow!" he barked again, staring into a pair of black dog eyes, shocked.

"Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...?"

It was clearly not yet dark, and it was clearly not yet midnight, but Ji Lin suddenly changed from an emperor to a little earth dog. The little earth dog barked wildly, and then jumped down from the couch with all four paws, screaming, and ran a series of fast out of camp.

The little dog ran out of the tent, and immediately heard many eunuchs and maids whispering, all talking about the emperor's fall into the palace.

"I heard that the emperor fell ill."

"Shh—quieter."

"I don't know why, I heard that... the emperor will become the emperor!"

"real or fake?"

"How dare I talk nonsense, but I just listened to what others said. Today, the emperor fell down from the steps of the alliance and sacrificed. Oh, the blood on his face is terrible. All the medical officials have gone."

"If the Son of Heaven fails, will the Lu people take the opportunity to send troops? Aren't we in danger?"

"That's right, that Lu country is Chidi, everyone is a savage, they won't take advantage of others' danger!"

"Then what to do..."

Hearing the panicked guesses, the little dog became extremely anxious, and ran towards the Tianzi Battalion Commander. Sure enough, the perimeter of the camp was heavily guarded, and the tiger and ben army lined up clangingly, guarding it like an iron bucket.

The little dog circled around the tent, got in from the corner, waggled its buttocks and tail, and slid in hard. With a "gu dong", because of too much force, it rolled forward directly. Flipped into the tent.

As soon as I entered, I heard the doctor's trembling words, and said tremblingly, "Return...to the Taifu's words, the emperor...the emperor...the emperor is probably...not good!"

In the emperor's camp, the medical officer knelt down on the ground, Zhou Gong Heijian, Guo Gong Jifu, Da Sima Wuman, Gongzi Wan, etc., gathered a bunch of confidant doctors, all waiting for the medical officer to see the emperor.

The Son of Heaven fell from the stairs and never woke up again. His face was covered with blood, his breathing was very weak, and his complexion was extremely pale. He was completely different from his handsome appearance in the past.

Qi Lu didn't expect that the medical officer would say "I'm afraid the Son of Heaven is ill" after seeing the doctor for a long time. Qi Lu's mind boomed, and he said with a gloomy face, "What's bad? The Son of Heaven has a strong body and is old. It’s so light, how can it be bad?”

That's true, Ji Lin is not yet 20 years old, so young, she is really young among kings.Moreover, Ji Lin has a more active temper, unlike Qi Lu who is an "otaku" who always likes to nest. Ji Lin has to practice martial arts every day, no matter how busy he is, no one else has seen his tendons, but Qi Lu has. several times.

If someone else suddenly fell ill and died of headache and brain fever, Qi Lu might believe it, but if the emperor suddenly failed, Qi Lu would never believe it.

The medical officer faltered and said, "The Son of Heaven... According to my servant, the Son of Heaven is poisoned."

Poisoning?

The little dog squinted his eyes, poisoned?He is the one who knows best about his own body. Ji Lin doesn't know where he was poisoned. How could he be diagnosed with poisoning all of a sudden, and the poisoning occurs instantly. When did he get poisoned?

Qi Lu asked in surprise, "Poisoned?"

The medical officer wiped his cold sweat and said, "Yes, I dare not lie, the emperor's pulse is really caused by poisoning."

Qi Lv squinted his eyes, and suddenly remembered that the emperor was not feeling well a few days ago, he almost fainted, and even swallowed his hands full of porridge, and he was also a little dizzy this morning, and said, "How long has the emperor been poisoned?"

The medical officer was even more frightened, and kowtowed repeatedly, shouting: "Please forgive me! Taifu please forgive me!"

Qi Lu was very surprised, he just asked a question, and it wasn't the doctor who poisoned him, so why did he spare his life?Then I heard the medical officer say: "The Son of Heaven... the Son of Heaven may have been poisoned for some time."

"Some days?" Qi Lu narrowed his eyes and said, "Didn't the Son of Heaven still see a medical officer a few days ago, why didn't he make a diagnosis at that time? Didn't you say that the Son of Heaven just had an occasional cold, so he could take care of it?"

The medical officer kowtowed again and again, no wonder when Qi Lu asked, these medical officers were all scared to death, because the emperor had indeed been poisoned for some time, but the medical officer did not check it out at that time, just thought it was an accidental cold, and gave the emperor some food It's just a soup for strengthening the body.

The medical officer said as if sifting through the chaff: "This... this poisonous thief is really abominable...it's so abominable, this kind of poison can't be diagnosed at the beginning, the symptoms are very mild, and it doesn't seem to be a serious problem, until...until After the toxin has invaded the viscera, it will be poisonous, and by the time...by the time the diagnosis is made, it is already...not good."

That's why, it seems that Ji Lin was dizzy a few days ago, and he was already poisoned at that time, but according to the current medical technology, it can't be detected at all.

Qi Lu squinted his eyes, and countless questions rushed into his mind in an instant, who harmed the emperor, who poisoned the emperor at this juncture, I am afraid it was calculated, it must be aimed at Huimeng.

Now that the Son of Heaven has suddenly fallen to the ranks of the Congregation of Priests, what a big deal it is, and it will spread quickly. If someone with a heart knows about the poisoning of the Son of Heaven, the world will definitely be in chaos...

Qi Lu said: "This poison...is there a solution?"

The medical officer tremblingly said: "This... Although the poison is vicious, it is not completely unsolvable. Today, the poison of the emperor invaded the viscera, which caused... and made him unconscious. The emperor's body is always strong, he should... he should... It can be solved."

What the medical officer said was ambiguous. After all, this is also a matter of good fortune. It cannot be said that there is no solution, but it also depends on the individual's recovery ability.

Qi Lu said coldly: "Doctor! The Son of Heaven must be healed!"

The medical officer said repeatedly: "Yes, I will do my best!"

Qi Lu said lightly: "It's not just about doing your best, it's about healing the emperor..."

Qi Lu's voice was very gloomy, and he said coldly: "It's not that Lu wants to embarrass you, but the current situation is compelling. This is the big camp of the alliance. If there is a disturbance in the emperor, Lu Guo will be eyeing. I can't keep my head."

"Yes! It's a matter!" The medical officer said again: "Young minister... I will definitely heal the emperor."

Qi Lu immediately said: "Don't talk nonsense, and treat the emperor immediately."

The medical officers quickly gathered around without paying any attention to etiquette. Qi Lu glanced at the crowd, and the others looked rather ugly. Everyone looked at each other and left the soft couch in a tacit understanding, and came to the outer room of the emperor's camp.

Everyone stood together, Wu Man was the most impatient, and said in a vicious voice: "Damn, if I catch that bully, I will definitely skin him!"

Duke Zhou Heijian looked as usual, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "The current plan must not be messed up. We need to keep our mouths shut about the matter of the emperor's serious illness."

Everyone nodded immediately, this is indeed the truth, not to mention that Lu State is from Chidi, Jin State and Quwo, which one is not ambitious?Ji Lin has no heirs, no brothers and sisters, and his only uncle is dead. If there is any problem with the emperor, the princes from all over the country will definitely flock to elect various new emperors to the throne, and it will be a scene of chaos .

Qi Lu said in a deep voice: "Now the Huimeng camp is about to move, and public opinion is everywhere. Please Zhou Gong to calm down the public opinion."

Hei Jian didn't talk nonsense, and said: "Leave it to Hei Jian."

Qi Lv looked at Grand Sima Wuman again, and said, "Grand Sima is in charge of the Huben army, please also place troops and horses in the camp, and strictly guard against them, and don't let villains take advantage of the fire to rob them."

Wu Man nodded and said, "Yes!"

Qi Lu continued to say to Guo Gongji's father: "Now we are in the eldest son city, surrounded by Chidi. In addition to the Lu family, there are also three Chidi tribes, Jia, Duochen and Liuyu. The three tribes don't know about the chaos in the alliance yet, but they are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, please be careful and investigate carefully."

Guo Gongji's father nodded and said: "The Tai Tuo is thoughtful, and I will go in a while."

Just as Qi Lu was about to speak again, suddenly a burst of dizziness came over him, and he suddenly
