The little fox does not want to hide the cub

Jiang Shen asked the palace lady who came to send the letter to go back to report first, and walked behind with Li Ruan in his arms.

When the court lady had disappeared, Jiang Shen lowered his voice and asked, "Is that woman from the Su clan just now a monster?"

Li Ruan raised his head and asked him: "You also recognize monsters?"

"I don't recognize it." Jiang Shen chuckled, "But she was almost scared to death by you."

The one named Su Wan'er is a raccoon demon.He has practiced for more than a hundred years, and he can't even hide his evil spirit, Li Ruan can see it at a glance.

Jiang Shen asked: "Did you scare her?"

"I'm warning her." Li Ruan said righteously, "I don't have to care about them as mortals. I don't know where the little cat demon ran out. If I don't teach her a lesson, do I really want her to climb on my head?"

"I haven't lost a fight with monsters yet."

The Yaozu has a strong sense of territory, Li Ruan was not very happy today, and was worried that he had no place to vent his anger.Now of course he is like a little hedgehog, stabbing whoever he catches.

The little cat demon accidentally hit him with a gun.

But Jiang Shen just smiled and didn't dissuade him.

The mortals are dealt with by Jiang Shen, and the affairs of the monster clan should naturally be handled by the monsters themselves.Although he didn't know why the young lady of the Su family in Jiangnan was a civet cat demon, but her aunt Concubine Rong was not favored in the palace, and the Su family in Jiangnan was not too powerful to give up, so he could let the little fox do as he wanted. method to deal with.

The palace is built around the lake, and the waterside pavilion near the lake where the Holy One is located is in the deepest part of the palace.Jiang Shen hugged Li Ruan and walked slowly along the shore of the lake. When there was no one around, and the female relatives who coveted Jiang Shen could no longer be seen, Li Ruan jumped off Jiang Shen.

Stretching comfortably.

He actually doesn't like places that are too popular.

Ordinary people eat five grains, have the seven emotions and six desires, are born, aged, sick and die, and are easily contaminated with turbid qi.A place with too much turbidity is not suitable for spiritual power to run, nor is it suitable for monster clans to practice.

And the harem is precisely the place where greed and desire are the heaviest.

Therefore, no matter how beautiful the building is and how comfortable the life is, in Li Ruan's heart, let alone comparing it with Changming Mountain, even this palace can't compare.

Few people come to this palace all year round, the environment is quiet and pleasant, it is the most suitable place to live.

Li Ruan never remembered the lesson, and after the nausea in the carriage passed away, she felt better again.Seeing such a beautiful scenery at this moment, I don't want to go to see the doctor at all. I just want to find a tree by the lake and climb up to enjoy the scenery.

Probably seeing what he was thinking, Jiang Shen took his hand, and could not help but lead him forward: "No, you promised me just now that you will see the doctor first when you arrive at the palace. Your Majesty summoned him now, and then Go to see His Majesty first, and then see the imperial physician, don't try to hide."

"Okay, okay, take a look."

Li Ruan was perfunctory, and asked again: "Then can I come to climb the tree later? That tree is really tall, and I can definitely see the whole palace when I go up."

...I don't even remember that I was pretending to be sick in front of people just now.

Jiang Shen had no choice but to answer casually, leading the others to continue walking into the palace.

The natural scenery on this side of the lake is pleasant, and on the other side of the lake, several palaces have been built. Although they are not as majestic as the imperial city, they are also not small in scale.

The waterside pavilion near the lake where the Holy Majesty is now is built along the water. It is three stories high and has a wide view.In the middle of the water near the lake shore, a stage is set up for the Holy One to enjoy singing, dancing and opera.

When Jiang Shen and Li Ruan arrived at Shuixie, there were people singing on the stage.

"Your Majesty hasn't listened to a play for several months, right? This new troupe is very popular in the capital, and the emperor specially found it for His Majesty." Sitting at the right hand of Emperor Chongxuan, Concubine Shu said, While pouring him tea.

The fourth prince, Jiang Heng, was standing beside Concubine Shu, looking listless, but Concubine Shu stepped on his foot quietly, so he managed to cheer up and began to introduce the origin of this troupe to Emperor Chongxuan.

Emperor Chongxuan was not interested in hearing this.

On the other side of the room, Concubine Xian was sitting with the sixth prince Jiang Xin, her face was not very good-looking.

The sixth prince, Jiang Xin, has just turned seventeen this year, and his appearance is still a little immature.He stood beside Concubine Xian with his head down like a quail, he didn't watch a play, let alone dared to look at the Holy Majesty.

Since the empress passed away, the Holy Majesty has not had a lucky concubine for a long time.In the entire harem, the ones who are slightly favored are the concubine Shu who is in charge of palace affairs, and the concubine Xian who is backed by the prime minister.

Both of them had princes under their knees, and they entered the palace almost at the same time, fighting openly and secretly for most of their lives.

But because the sixth prince Jiang Xin is really not promising, timid and cowardly, he is not loved by the Holy One, and even Xianfei's status in the palace is gradually inferior to that of Shuguifei.

Seeing Concubine Shu showing off the limelight in front of the Holy Master at this moment, Concubine Xian is naturally displeased.

Fortunately, His Majesty was not interested in watching, and waved Jiang Heng to shut up after hearing a few words.Jiang Heng couldn't get what he wanted, so he stood back to his original position obediently.

At this moment, Eunuch Chang trotted in: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."

Emperor Chongxuan finally came to his senses and hurriedly said, "Let him in quickly."

This attitude was reflected in everyone's eyes. Seeing that Concubine Shu was not pleased, Concubine Xian finally showed a smile on her face, and even sat up straight.

When Jiang Shen led Li Ruan in, he happened to see this scene.

He has seen a lot of intrigues among the concubines in the harem since he was a child, and he found it annoying at first, but later he treated it as a show.It is also a great pleasure to appreciate the frequent tricks of the concubines in the palace, and I will appear on the stage after you sing.

He suppressed a little smile in his eyes, led Li Ruan to the front of Emperor Chongxuan, and saluted him: "Father, my son is late."

"It's okay, sit down." Emperor Chongxuan waved his hand.

He deliberately left two chairs on his left, just for Jiang Shen and Li Ruan.

Not only Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian were present, but also several other concubines.But except Concubine Shu, including the concubines and the two princes, no one could sit so close to the Holy Majesty.

Of course they have no objection to His Royal Highness sitting there, but Li Ruan, an unnamed male favourite, can sit beside the Holy Majesty.

For a moment, many eyes secretly fell on Li Ruan.

Jiang Shen led Li Ruan to his seat, and Emperor Chongxuan turned his head again, and asked, "I heard that Xiao Li just didn't feel well, is he feeling better now?"

He usually doesn't have this attitude towards Li Ruan.

Li Ruan was startled, first glanced blankly at Jiang Shen, and then responded: "I, I'm fine, thank you for your concern."

Jiang Shen was silent.

His father, he likes to watch the show more than him, and he is a good hand at fighting fire.

Knowing that many of the concubines present took his little fox as a thorn in their side, they deliberately showed such concern.

I'm afraid his little fox won't be hated by others.

His Majesty cared so much about Li Ruan, the happiest person present was Concubine Shu.

She quickly said with concern: "It seems to be a little motion sickness, right? I just called the imperial physician, why don't you let the imperial physician diagnose and treat Mr. Li?"

Jiang Shen said, "No need to bother, Concubine Shu."

Jiang Shen planned to take the little fox to see the imperial doctor, but the little fox is a demon after all, and he doesn't know what's wrong with his body, so he doesn't trust others to help him diagnose and treat him.

What's more, he was the one prepared by Concubine Shu.

Right now, the little fox's body is no longer uncomfortable. Jiang Shen originally thought that when they returned to their residence, he would call Imperial Physician Feng again.

"That's right, it's just motion sickness, so why bother?" It was Concubine Xian who spoke.

Perhaps it was because Xiangguo had dominated the government recently, and as the daughter of Xiangguo, Concubine Xian almost walked sideways in the harem.Except for a little restraint in front of the Holy One, he always looks domineering at other times.

However, the Holy One turned a blind eye to her, which fueled her arrogance even more.

Even Concubine Shu can't do anything about her.

"If you really feel unwell, just go back and rest. Why do you have to force it here?" Concubine Xian has been aggrieved all the way since she left the palace. Xin'er was a little bit motion sick just now on the road, why didn't you see him arguing to see the imperial doctor?"

"Concubine Xian, what are you talking about? If the sixth prince is not feeling well, let the imperial physician take his pulse. You—"

"What is the name of the imperial doctor? Your Majesty is still watching operas and listening to music. Is it okay for you to call an imperial doctor to see him?"

Li Ruan had never seen this battle before, and he was completely stunned. Jiang Shen handed him a handful of melon seeds.

"Eat, they will argue for a while." Jiang Shen said calmly.

Li Ruan blinked, leaned into Jiang Shen's ear and whispered, "But they seem to be arguing over me..."

Jiang Shen: "Don't worry, they often quarreled over me before."

"..." Li Ruan cast a very sympathetic look at him, "You have worked hard."

How many times do you have to listen to it before you can get used to it, and you can still eat melon seeds in this atmosphere.

Li Ruan looked over Jiang Shen to look at Emperor Chongxuan again, and saw that the latter was also looking very interested with his chin propped up, much more focused than when he was listening to the play just now.

Li Ruan: "..."

Otherwise, how could these two be father and son?

The play in the water pavilion is better than the one on the stage.

Jiang Shen's guess was right, as the two of them quarreled non-stop, and it was getting worse.After a while, Concubine Shu was arguing over whether or not to hire an imperial physician for Li Ruan, which was against the rules.

In fact, Concubine Shu's true intention to match Jiang Shen and Li Ruan can be seen by any shrewd concubine in the harem.

But Concubine Xian doesn't care about this.

The sixth prince under her knees is still young, and just took a concubine last year, and now she has no concubine, let alone any heirs.For her, both the crown prince and the fourth prince are her enemies.She neither wants the prince to marry a wife and have children, nor does she want Concubine Shu's plan to succeed.

Only by muddying the waters can she profit from it.

Concubine Xian led the flames of war to Concubine Shu's preference for Li Ruan, which instantly expanded the battle situation.Even the concubine who hadn't spoken just now began to chatter, not daring to directly express dissatisfaction with Li Ruan's favor, so she questioned Concubine Shu for violating the traditional rules in the palace and for betraying the trust of the Holy Majesty.

Concubine Shu Gui is hard-pressed with both fists and four-handed. She can't talk to others, so she can only come back and ask Emperor Chongxuan for help: "Your Majesty, I really just like Xiao Li very much, and I feel sorry for His Royal Highness who has never been taken care of. That's why I want to have a lover. Dependents, you don't have any selfish intentions, Your Majesty, you have learned from me!"

"Well, I understand."

Emperor Chongxuan probably had enough of watching the play, took a sip of tea, and gently put the cup back on the table: "It's just to see an imperial doctor, so we won't make such a quarrel. Come on, which imperial doctor is here, come here to help Look."

After Emperor Chongxuan finished speaking, a gray-haired imperial doctor came in from outside.

Due to the poor health of the Holy Spirit, he took the entire Taiyuan Hospital with him on this trip.The imperial physician who is here today is surnamed Xie, and belongs to Concubine Shu.

Jiang Shen narrowed his eyes.

He didn't want others to diagnose and treat the little fox, but now that the Holy One has opened his mouth, he has no room to refuse.

However, when he was in the ancestral temple earlier, the little fox passed out due to too much mana consumption, so Jiang Shen asked Feng Taiyi to diagnose his pulse.At that time, Jiang Shen didn't know the identity of the little fox, and Imperial Physician Feng didn't know how the little fox's pulse was different from that of ordinary people.

It's just a pulse check, there shouldn't be any problem.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shen felt a little relieved, and let Imperial Physician Xie walk to Li Ruan's side.

Of course Li Ruan had no objection to this.

Just now, each of these concubines had no heirs, so he couldn't be a concubine for Jiang Shen, so he was not very happy at first.It's not that they feel offended by this, but they say it like this, as if the only purpose of those women who were brought close to Jiang Shen is to be able to bear children.

And he can't bear children, so it's useless.

This is too unreasonable.

Li Ruan stretched out one hand and placed it on the jade pillow brought by the imperial physician, while the other hand quietly landed on his abdomen.

Good boy, scare them.

Li Ruan whispered in his heart.

Imperial Physician Xie leaned over to check Li Ruan's pulse, Emperor Chongxuan withdrew his gaze, and began to appease the concubine: "Sit down, there is no need to get angry about such a trivial matter."

"Concubine Shu has a kind heart, so it is understandable to have such considerations, I understand."

"Concubine Xian, and..." He didn't seem to remember the names of those concubines very much, and he didn't care, so he vaguely said, "You are all right, there must be rules in the palace, that's why I did it earlier. Reject Concubine Shu's suggestion. Xiao Li is a good boy, but he is a man after all, so he can't be the main wife."

"Therefore, Concubine Shu no longer needs to mention this matter."

"But Your Majesty..." Concubine Shu was still a little unwilling, but Emperor Chongxuan waved her hand to shut her up.

She was depressed, and she didn't even have a good temper when she watched Li Ruan.Seeing that Dr. Xie was still diagnosing his pulse carefully, he felt even more displeased, and urged: "Why is it still not healed?"

Xie Tai doctor said: "Please wait a moment, my concubine, my son, this... this pulse..."

How does this pulse look like...

Imperial Physician Xie hesitated to speak, he was very surprised in his heart, after repeated consultations for a long time, he couldn't help but look up at the young man in front of him.

The boy looked back at him innocently.

Concubine Shu called Imperial Physician Xie just to finish the drama she was concerned about, but now she has no interest in acting, so naturally she doesn't care about Li Ruan's health.

But Jiang Shen was concerned.

Seeing Imperial Physician Xie's expression of hesitation, he couldn't help but frowned: "Mr. Xie, what's wrong with your pulse?"

Could it be some difficult disease?

Imperial Physician Xie looked at Concubine Shu at the side, and asked uncertainly, "...Do you really want to say it?"

"Just tell me." Concubine Shu said impatiently, "Is there anything you can't say, can he still be pregnant?"

Doctor Xie fell to his knees with a plop.

He leaned over and kowtowed to Emperor Chongxuan, calling out the momentum of a concubine in the harem being diagnosed with a happy pulse, and said loudly: "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to the noble concubine, congratulations to your highness the crown prince, Mr. Li is indeed happy!"

Emperor Chongxuan: "?"

Concubine Shu: "??"

Jiang Shen: "?????"
