twilight endless

Twilight walked into Zhou Yu's study room with a large basin of ice in his hands, opened the ice box carved with a unicorn offering auspiciousness, and put the ice into it piece by piece, but the size was not quite right, five pieces couldn't be put away , four yuan is a bit empty.Twilight looked at it with a frown, and took out a knife to chop up the ice cubes on the spot.

Zhou Yu was writing on the desk beside him when a small cicada was attracted by the candlelight and landed on the paper.Zhou Yu blasted away casually, and just about to start writing, he heard the sound of "bang bang" breaking ice from the twilight side.Zhou Yu was so startled that his hands trembled, and a drop of ink fell, and immediately became angry, and he flicked the knife over, but Twilight didn't notice it, and he still chopped vigorously.Zhou Ji looked at his serious expression, took a deep breath, and endured it.Throw away the soiled paper, take out a new one, and continue writing.Just after writing two lines, there were two more "bang bang", Zhou Yu couldn't bear it anymore, put down his pen, and shouted: "You!"

"Ah?" Twilight looked up at Zhou Ji and asked, "What is your Highness's order?"

Seeing his face covered in sweat and hands covered in ice water, Zhou Yu couldn't bear it, so he waved his hands and said, "It's okay, you can continue."

"Oh." Twilight agreed and continued to crush the ice.

"Stupid!" Zhou Ji sat behind the desk and looked at the twilight, secretly counting in his heart, "You can't poke it with the tip of a knife, why do you have to chop it? What a stupid person! It's broken ice everywhere. Let's see how you clean up later!"

After tossing and tossing for a long time, Twilight finally filled the ice box, clapped her hands in satisfaction, and turned around only to find that Zhou Yu was staring straight at herself.

"Why didn't Your Highness stop writing?" Twilight asked wonderingly, "Is it hot? Then I'll bring Your Highness a bowl of plum soup."

"Don't drink." Zhou Ji said in a nonchalant manner, "Annoying."

"What's bothering Your Highness?" Twilight was even more puzzled.

Zhou Ji didn't want to discourage Twilight's enthusiasm for packing ice boxes, so he pointed to the cicadas flying around the candlelight and said, "This is annoying."

"This..." Twilight scratched his chin, leaned over and said, "Let me help Your Highness blast." While fanning the candlelight with his hand while speaking, he said to Zhou Yu with a smile, "Your Highness, continue writing."

Zhou Ji looked at the flickering candle that was fanned by the twilight and couldn't help scolding him, when he saw the candle twitched and completely extinguished.

"Eh..." Twilight looked at Zhou Ji awkwardly through the moonlight, and seeing Zhou Ji's expression getting more and more ugly, he hurriedly said, "I'll go get another one."

"Come back!" Zhou Yu stopped the figure that Twilight was about to run out, walked over, gave him a shudder with all his strength, and said angrily, "I won't write anymore! I'm going to sleep!" Twilight walked out of the study.

Twilight squatted at the door of the study with a sad face, deeply blaming herself for making Zhou Ji angry again.A mosquito sneakily landed on Twilight's neck, before it could bite, it was slapped to death by Twilight.Twilight stared at the dead mosquito in her hand, suddenly smiled, stood up and ran away.

The next day, Zhou Yu told Wu Chang'an in advance that someone should change the ice box for his study.When I entered the study room at night, the ice box had already been replaced.No longer having to endure the sound of crushing ice, Zhou Yu couldn't help but feel very comfortable. After writing it all night, he realized that those wax cicadas seemed to be gone, even by the candle... Zhou Yu paused, he was swallowed by a bowl of disgusting Lamp oil was startled.

"What is this?" Zhou Ji asked, pointing to the bowl of black and sticky lamp oil.

"Lamp oil." Twilight was coming in with a bowl of plum soup, when he heard Zhou Yu's question, he answered in a puzzled way.

"I know it's lamp oil, I'm asking why it's so disgusting?"

"Disgusting?" Twilight was a little aggrieved, and whispered, "I made this lamp oil."

"Ah?" Zhou Yu couldn't understand, and asked, "Can't afford lamp oil in the palace anymore?"

"No." Twilight said a little smugly, "I added something special to this bowl of lamp oil. Didn't Your Highness notice that there were fewer wax cicadas?"

"It's really missing." After Mu Hui said it, Zhou Yu immediately understood, and asked, "What did you add?"

"Herbs to avoid insects." Twilight said with a smile, "I asked Medical Officer Ji specifically, and he also taught me how to boil herbs into lamp oil."

"He really has a lot of such small prescriptions." After Zhou Yu finished speaking, he met Danfeng's eyes that were slightly drooping in the twilight. The candlelight was reflected in his eyes, and he seemed to see the long-lost amber eyes again in a trance.Zhou Yu's heart felt warm for no reason, and he stretched out his hand to scratch Mu Hui's nose, and said with a smile, "You have a heart too."

It seemed that it was the first time he was praised by Zhou Yu after entering the palace, and Twilight was so happy that she couldn't help herself, so she just stood there and looked at Zhou Yu with a smirk.Zhou Yu was watched so that the wall in his heart collapsed a bit, he quickly looked away, looked at the oil lamp, and said without words: "Actually, this method is the same as the incense in the palace, and sometimes some oil is added. The medicine for calming the mind and calming the mind, when it is ignited, the smoke will disperse, and if people are in it, they will..."

"Wait!" Zhou Ji suddenly grabbed Twilight's shoulder, looked at him and said, "I thought of it, it's charcoal fire!"

"What?" Twilight was puzzled.

"Go!" Zhou Yu didn't explain much to him, but only ordered, "Call Ji Yan."

Without further ado, Twilight immediately turned around and went out, bringing Ji Yan back after a while.

"You don't need to be too polite!" Zhou Yu stopped Ji Yan from saluting, and said hastily, "I thought of a possibility, would someone murder elder brother with charcoal fire in the imperial prison?"

"Charcoal fire?" Ji Yan was puzzled, "How does charcoal fire kill people?"

"It's like incense." Zhou Ji explained, "If a deadly poison is added to the charcoal fire, and the smoke will be emitted after being ignited, will people be poisoned if they inhale it?"

"This..." Ji Yan was silent, and thought for a long time before saying, "I don't think it's possible."

"why?"

"Back then, in order to diagnose and treat King Yi's illness, Ji Yan almost shared the bed with King Yi. If the charcoal fire was poisonous, why would Ji Yan be fine?"

"Maybe you don't have much time to stay?" Zhou Ji guessed.

"That will affect it to some extent." Ji Yan said with certainty, "Ji Yan is a doctor and is very sensitive to abnormalities in the body. If there is something unusual, he will definitely notice it."

This time it was Zhou Ji's turn to be silent.

Ever since Ji Yan was brought back to the palace, the seekers who spent sleepless nights and food in search of medical books, tried to find out the suspiciousness of Yi Wang's illness, but after several months passed, Ji Yan's only gain was to be more sure that what Yi Wang had was ordinary. Cold syndrome, all the medicines and ingredients he tried in the past were all quite satisfactory, without any mistakes.Now that Zhou Ji finally thought of a possibility, but was denied by Ji Yan, wouldn't that mean he lost his clue again?

For a while, the room was silent, and everyone was thinking carefully. Twilight suddenly thought of a possibility, and hesitated to speak.

"Your Highness, I thought of something, I don't know if it will be useful."

"Say it!"

"When I was practicing the Triple Pass in Qianluo Village, Master Bai would light a piece of benzoin in order to make everyone more tranquil. But the incense is the same, but everyone's degree of tranquility is different. Rui'er is always the fastest, Bainai is always the hardest, and I..." Twilight was a little embarrassed, "I always fall asleep directly."

"You mean even the same poisonous charcoal fire." Zhou Ji understood, and went on to say, "Because Ji Jun is in good health, he is fine, but elder brother can't stand it because he is already sick?"

Ji Yan thought about it, but still shook his head.Zhou Ji was a little discouraged when he saw it, but Twilight spoke up.

"Your Highness, I don't mean that." Twilight thought for a while about how to say Zhou's gatha to understand, "Practicing the triple pass requires meditation, and the degree of meditation depends on one's own comprehension, secondly, on the guidance of others, and thirdly, on benzoin. Help, without one, it may not be easy to enter meditation."

After Twilight finished speaking, she looked at Zhou Yu, who had a puzzled look on Zhou Yu's face, but suddenly realized.

"You mean, the combination of imported medicine and charcoal will kill you?" Zhou Ji looked at Ji Yan, "Ji Jun, is this possible?"

Ji Yan thought for a longer time this time, pacing and calculating for a long time before he said: "It is possible, but Ji Yan carefully thought about the prescriptions he prescribed back then, and they are all medicines for mildness and gentleness. Other medicines will not conflict. Ji Yan has little knowledge, so I really can't think of any medicines that can make the medicine prescribed by Ji Yan become a deadly medicine."

"It's not to blame Ji Jun's lack of talent and learning." Zhou Yu persuaded, "It's really that this kind of insidious technique is too nasty. Ji Jun is a modest gentleman, so how can he know such inferior methods."

"There is no distinction between high and low medicine stones, and all doctors should be involved in the emergency." Ji Yan sighed, "Even if it is guessed that it was caused by charcoal fire, how can we be sure?"

"This..." Zhou Ji paused before saying, "I think I know who to ask."

"Who?" Twilight couldn't help but asked again.

Zhou Yu didn't answer, and only told Twilight: "Go and prepare with Wu Chang'an, the king will go to the palace to visit the queen tomorrow morning."

Early the next morning, Twilight followed Zhou Yu into the palace.The carriage was driving on the official road in the capital, and seeing Zhou Ji's preoccupied face, Twilight couldn't help calling out, "Your Highness?"

"What's the matter?" Zhou Ji recovered and asked.

"What is your Highness thinking?" Twilight pointed to her brows, "It's all screwed up here."

Zhou Ji laughed a little when he heard this, and then said: "I didn't think about anything, but I was a little afraid of seeing the queen mother."

"Why?" Twilight asked puzzledly, hesitated and added, "Every time His Highness goes, the Queen treats His Highness very well." Twilight smiled embarrassedly, "Treat me very well, always I have a lot of delicious palace food."

Zhou Ji watched Twilight's eyes shine when he mentioned food, and a warm thing under the ice flickered lightly.Zhou Ji raised his hand, tapped Mu Hui's forehead, and cursed with a smile, "I just know how to eat!"

Twilight felt more and more embarrassed as she touched her head and laughed.

"Hey..." Zhou Yu looked at Twilight's smiling face, sighed, and involuntarily told Twilight about the pain in his heart, "I was afraid that my mother would suddenly ask me why I didn't save my elder brother, and I was even more afraid of my mother's death." Ask me, why don't you avenge your elder brother now."
