prince's concubine

Sensing that Zhong Min's body froze in an instant, Li Rui thought that Zhong Min was embarrassed because he was pulled into his arms, but he was reluctant to let go, but now he was in the palace and the emperor was here again, so he had no choice but to let go slowly. The hand on Zhong Min's waist lightly patted Zhong Min's shoulder, "Are you okay?"

"...It's okay," Zhong Min realized that he had been nestled in Li Rui's arms just now, and blushed unconsciously, and nodded when he heard his question, "Well, the Queen Mother knows martial arts?"

Otherwise, it was also poisoning, the doctor Chen was in so much pain that he was about to die, and the queen mother seemed to be fine!

"The Queen Mother used to be a famous female general in the Southern Dynasty. She was brave and good at fighting, and she was able to calm the Western Regions back then. The Queen Mother contributed a lot." Li Rui explained in a low voice.

Unexpectedly, the queen mother is actually a master of courage, strategy, and intelligence? !

Zhong Min never thought that the queen mother would hide so much, she couldn't help but secretly startled, thinking that if Li Rui hadn't pulled him away in time just now, the queen mother might not have escaped!

"Thank you, my lord!" Zhong Min raised his head in fear, only to find that his and Li Rui's faces were so close to each other, as if Li Rui could kiss his forehead by lowering his head, and he could kiss his forehead with a slight tiptoe. The tip of Li Rui's nose.

"Eh?" Li Rui didn't hear clearly, and when he lowered his head, his warm breath hit Zhong Min's face, and the picture was indescribably ambiguous.Both of them blushed at the same time, and they each took a few steps back.

"Your Majesty?" Li Rui was the first to come back to his senses, and when he raised his head, he realized that something was wrong with the Emperor, and hurried forward, "Doctor Zhong, come and take a look!"

When Zhong Min heard the call, he immediately remembered that the emperor used poison on his wrist to make the empress dowager and Chen Taiyi get along well. The poison might have soaked into the emperor's own body, so he hurried over.

"I'm fine," the emperor said wearily, with a pale face, one elbow on his head, one hand gently shaking Li Rui, frowning.

"Let Dr. Zhong take a look, just in case..." Li Rui worriedly took two detoxifying pills from Zhong Min, and forced the emperor to swallow them.

The emperor couldn't hold back Li Rui, and he knew that he was worried about his body. After all, this body shouldered a heavy responsibility. Although the poison in the body was almost cleared, the damage was serious, and the half-year recuperation was only superficially good. Yes, in fact, it's empty inside!So he took the pill helplessly, and smiled, with a trace of self-deprecation and sadness, "I didn't poison at all, but I added some spices to cleanse the intestines in the tea. It's because they have ghosts in their hearts,"

Zhong Min froze for a moment, and looked at the emperor suspiciously, "The emperor's bowl of tea is obviously poisonous, why..."

The emperor smiled wryly, "I just picked it up for you to see, but I didn't really want to drink it. It's the queen mother... After so many years, I must have felt uncomfortable!"

"Is the emperor going to imprison the queen mother for the rest of her life?" Li Rui's face darkened. The queen mother is not a person who can easily admit defeat. What's more, what she said to Zhong Min just now means that she has already included Zhong Min in the black list. list.

"She is my mother, my biological mother, I..." The emperor bit his lips, "I can't, I can't kill her!"

"When the Empress Dowager was young, the Emperor was ruthless enough to frame the Emperor even when he was not a threat to the Empress Dowager. Now that the Emperor is able to threaten the Empress Dowager, how can the Empress Dowager be soft-hearted! Your Majesty!" Li Rui couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Okay, don't say any more." The emperor angrily stopped Li Rui from continuing, "I know what I have in mind. I called you into the palace this time to let you know what I think. I will let people lock up the queen mother. I won't let her come out to disturb the court again, and I won't let her harm you again. Now I still have to rely on you to help me take care of the affairs in the court, and I promise you that when the affairs in the court are straightened out, I will let you go back to my fief, and let you be a free and easy prince, okay?"

Before Li Rui could answer, the emperor said again, "I am not at ease with these imperial doctors in the palace now, and Ah Rui probably is also worried, so I would like to borrow Dr. Zhong from your mansion to stay in the palace for a few days to help me with the matter." It's too hospital, Ah Rui won't disagree!"

Zhong Min looked back at Li Rui in amazement, Li Rui was obviously stunned for a while, he obviously didn't know that the emperor would make such an opinion, but he still gave Zhong Min a comforting look, although Zhong Min didn't look like Panicked and uneasy, but Li Rui still saw a flash of uneasiness in his eyes.

Li Rui wanted to refuse, but the emperor's tone was not a discussion but an order.

"Your Majesty, Dr. Zhong is a mediocre person. I'm afraid that he won't be able to shock the prestigious imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital! How about..." Li Rui said.

"Joke," Li Rui was interrupted by the emperor at the end of his words, he waved his hand lightly, "Doctor Zhong has cured my illness, if the gang of imperial doctors in the imperial hospital dare to make trouble, let them come to me. Let's see who among them has cured my illness even a little bit over the years? Dare to look down on people and show your true skills, I don't have people with high eyesight and low abilities in this palace!"

Li Rui glanced at the emperor, lowered his eyes slightly, "I don't understand, the emperor is worried that the hospital is too dirty, so he can reshuffle the cards, why bother to let people who don't understand anything suffer?"

"You..." The emperor's face changed instantly, he bit the corner of his lips, and tears of grievance welled up in his eyes, "Does Ah Rui want to abandon me? Because, because of Dr. Zhong?"

Speaking of this, the emperor glared at Zhong Min who had been shot innocently.

Li Rui sighed helplessly, "Your majesty is worrying too much. I am just afraid that the emperor will startle the snake if he is so reckless. Doctor Chen dared to do something about the emperor. Although he had the support of the queen mother, this poison was not a thing in the palace." , there must be someone in the court to respond, if Dr. Zhong is directly pushed to the open place, it will not be conducive to the investigation, what does the emperor think?"

Hearing that Li Rui really had plans for him, the emperor's anger subsided somewhat.

"Then what is Ah Rui's plan?" The emperor glanced at Zhong Min unhappily, and asked casually.In fact, in all fairness, he doesn't dislike Zhong Min, and even likes this quiet and gentle doctor, but when he thinks of Ah Rui, who has held himself in the palm of his hand and cared for him for many years, and suddenly his eyes are fixed on him, the emperor feels that he has never had any The panic, restlessness, confusion, fear and inexplicable jealousy!He hated the feeling, like something was going to be taken from him and he couldn't keep it.So, even though he knew that Zhong Min saved his life and he liked him in his heart, he still wanted to drive him away from Ah Rui!He felt that this Zhong Min would take away Ah Rui's eyes on him, take away Ah Rui's love for him, take Ah Rui away from him, and leave him. This is something he cannot allow of!

"A secret investigation is worse than an open investigation. The Imperial Physician Chen has been killed, and the imperial hospital has no leader. The emperor can not rush to appoint the chief imperial physician. Once the year is over, in order to make up for the shortage of imperial physicians in the imperial hospital, he can recruit doctors from all over the country. At that time, letting Zhong Min enter the imperial hospital will not attract attention, but it will also be conducive to secret investigations. Of course, in order to ensure the safety of the emperor's diet, the minister will bring Dr. Zhong into the palace every day to ensure the safety of the emperor. What does the emperor think?" Li Ruidao.

"Well, although this method is a little slow, it is still a way to achieve both ends. Let's do it this way. Doctor Zhong rarely enters the palace, so let Cang Hai take you around." The emperor looked out the window, raised his hand and gently slapped Haha, "It's time to go to court again, let's go, Ah Rui, bring me two bunches of candied haws next time I come, I haven't eaten them for a long time...the sweet and sour taste is really nostalgic."

The slender figure gradually disappeared at the end of the veranda, and Zhong Min just retracted his eyes, and turned around to "tour the palace" with Cang Hai, the head of the House of Internal Affairs.

The emperor showed hostility towards him from time to time, not once or twice.This time is the most serious.This kind of targeted hostility is especially obvious in the presence of Li Rui.Zhong Min didn't think much at first, but as the number of times increased, it was inevitable that he would think too much, not to mention that he had hidden some small thoughts, who knew that such small thoughts would collide with the emperor.

The emperor himself probably didn't understand what he was thinking, maybe it was because of Li Rui's years of care and care that he couldn't tell whether it was dependence or something else, but he hated that Li Rui's attention on him fell on others, This is the truth.Zhong Min was a little distressed, what should he do to ensure the safety of his belongings?It's true that he likes Li Rui, but he can't put his own fate inexplicably because of this secret love.

The palace is very big, magnificent and beautiful.

Cang Hai dutifully led the way, occasionally explaining a few words.Zhong Min wandered around absently.

There is a pond in front, and there is a gazebo by the pond, Zhong Min intends to take a rest, to sort out his boring thoughts and depressed emotions.

When I got closer, I found that there were people in the gazebo, not even one person, but four or five concubines who were drinking tea and chatting.

Zhong Min stopped immediately, and glanced at Cang Hai with an unkind expression, "This is the place where the concubines of the harem come and go, how can the father-in-law bring the grass people here! Although the grass people are commoners, they are also distinguished guests in the prince's mansion! You are so casual , is Prince Qingman, don’t you understand, Eunuch?”

Cang Hai said with a bitter face and fear, "I will never dare to treat you lightly! On weekdays, concubines and concubines in the harem rarely come here. I really don't know that there will be someone here today..."

"Forget it, take me out of here quickly." Zhong Min turned around and wanted to leave.

"Who is there?"
