Records of the King of Xin'an County

"It was the twelfth lunar month of winter, not only the frail Duke Huai, but also many concubines in the palace and many clan princes outside the palace were infected with the disease." The old doctor Feng continued, "I remember that the late emperor had always suffered from wind disease. , leaving a Feng Yu by his side to recuperate the imperial body, asking for a safe pulse every day. His pulse condition that day was not appropriate, it should be that the condition has been repeated. Empress Wende's condition is also good and bad, and there is also a Feng Yu stays in her palace all year round for diagnosis and treatment. These two Feng Yu will definitely not leave the side of the Empress so easily to treat Duke Huai."

Li Hui continued to ask: "Where are the four imperial physicians? Even if Feng Yu is not here, the imperial physicians should all be in the Shangyao Bureau." The abolished prince and his grandfather felt unwell, so it was impossible to send the four All the imperial physicians, please go away.Even if they have always been so "casual", the Great Shimu Su and Aniang Yan would definitely not do such inappropriate things.

"The pulse case left by the deposed prince was excessive drinking and heartburn. It is not a serious illness, but it is also extremely difficult." Feng old doctor replied, "According to the pulse case records, only one person went to the East Palace. He is an imperial physician. His Royal Highness King Pu's pulse case is internal stagnation of blood stasis, blockage of veins, stagnation of blood vessels, dizziness and headache. This is the precursor of wind disease, which does not seem to be serious, and cannot be ignored. There is only one imperial physician in Wei Wang's residence for diagnosis and treatment."

"Where did the remaining two imperial physicians go?" Li Hui asked again.

"One was ordered by the late emperor to treat Zheng Guogong who was seriously ill at that time. After all, Zheng Guogong was the late emperor's confidant and loved minister, and he had been sick for many days, so the imperial physician had been living in Zheng Guogong's mansion. And there was another—— "Old doctor Feng paused, then said, "That day, I went to Hongnong County's mansion temporarily to treat the mother of Concubine Yang."

"Hongnong County Mansion? They shouldn't be qualified to invite the imperial physician from the Shangyao Bureau?" Li Hui frowned, "Could it be that Concubine Yang came forward to invite this imperial physician?" Although his face remained the same, Calm, but my heart is full of turmoil: Is it because of this that the relationship between Princess Anxing and Concubine Yang is so cold?She even blamed Concubine Yang for the death of Duke Huai?But if this is the case, the relationship between her and Hongnong County Government is worth pondering! !

The side hall fell into silence for a while, and with the addition of old doctor Feng, Li Hui finally sorted out the old affairs of King Huai.This matter is indeed destiny, not the result of man-made.But in the eyes of those who can't accept this kind of result, there must be some reason for this matter, and it is absolutely impossible for the fate to predestinate Duke Huai to die at only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Even though Imperial Physician Yao is a young talent from the Shang Yao Bureau, with superb medical skills, there is no mistake in the diagnosis and prescription of Duke Huai.But in the eyes of Princess Anxing, Duke Huai's death was all due to his ineffective medical treatment, and he was just an out-and-out quack doctor.Besides, why is it such a coincidence?Not only was the imperial court unable to come here, even the four imperial physicians were absent, so it was the turn of a young Zhichang to see Duke Huai?And why did the prince and Wei Wang (Pu Wang), who were always "well-behaved", rush to this day at the same time, and specially summoned the imperial physician away?

The coincidences everywhere make Princess Anxing firmly believe that all of this is a conspiracy.For this distorted lord, the pain of losing his brother can only be alleviated by hatred.And the constant hatred made her even more paranoid, determined to take revenge on everyone involved.

Therefore, when King Pu and the deposed prince returned to the capital, the assassination they received was not just framing and sowing dissension, and it was not just that the implicated families came to revenge.Princess Anxing secretly supported these declining families who had enmity with the deposed prince Li Song and King Pu Li Tai, just to use their hands to kill "enemies".

As for Yue King Li Heng and today's saints, although they have nothing to do with the death of King Huai, they are all brothers who "benefited from it".In the eyes of the irrational Princess An Xing, they took away everything Huai Wang Li Hua deserved, so they all deserved to die, and even ended up in a more miserable end than death.

Similarly, perhaps the Hongnong County Government House is not just a profit-hungry mother clan to her, but also the chief culprit who killed her brother, Duke Huai.The reason why she recommended Yang Ba Niang to enter the palace, and gave Yang Xianfei an idea to let her recommend Pei's cousin into the palace, was definitely not to play tricks on two sides, but to watch Hongnong Yang's split, and the two tigers fought with each other.

Thinking of this, Li Hui couldn't help feeling chills in his heart.What he guessed was probably just a small part of Princess Anxing's complicated thoughts.In order to get revenge, how far can she go, is she planning to destroy the entire royal family?And now, how many arrangements and arrangements has she made? ——These are urgently needed to be investigated immediately.Otherwise, even if you understand the reason for her actions, it will be difficult to stop the results of her actions.

The worst result is that whether it is the father's family or the mother's family, Princess Anxing is already regarded as an endless enemy.But, in the end, what kind of ending did she want to see to be satisfied?Does she have to destroy the entire Chang'an City and the entire Tang Dynasty to make her feel happy?

Everything is unknown, and these unknowns are especially unsettling, and even more anxiety-provoking.

After Princess Changning returned to the side hall, Li Hui sent old doctor Feng out and told her in detail what he had just guessed.She was stunned, and pondered for a moment: "Unexpectedly, she was so crazy to avenge the 'unnecessary' revenge? No matter who was involved in this matter, or who had nothing to do with it, she did not intend to Let go?!"

"Her thoughts can no longer be speculated by common sense. The so-called blood relationship has no meaning to her." Li Hui sighed softly, "However, all this is just my guess. I don't know yet. Is there any exchange of interests between her and the treasonous clan?"

"Even if there is an exchange of benefits, she must be using revenge as a banner." Princess Changning said, "Otherwise, how could those treacherous clans believe in such a crazy woman? Grandpa also wants to get rid of An Xing and quickly, But he may have never thought clearly about what she was going to do and why she was doing these things, and he never found the right opportunity to do it. If we want to get rid of her, we must rely on Grandpa's strength to do it. Moreover, It must be resolved quickly, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

"Of course, relying on us alone is far from enough to compete with Princess Anxing. There are too few moves we can make, and many people are under the nose of others, so we must not use them easily." Li Hui said .

"After I build the mansion, I will raise a group of people in secret." Princess Changning said in a low voice, "Also, Grandpa promised me to build the county palace of brother brother and cousin Jing Xing around my princess mansion. At that time, we can still advance and retreat together, and it is more convenient to come and go.”

"..." Hearing this, Li Hui was slightly taken aback.In fact, at his age, it was time for him to leave Prince Pu's Mansion and build the Prince's Mansion alone.But no matter whether it was Li Tai, Yan Shi, Li Xin, Zhou Shi, it seemed that they had never thought of it.And he himself regarded Prince Pu's Mansion as his home, even if he built the mansion, he never thought of leaving it too far away.If it is really adjacent to Princess Changning's Mansion, it will be built in Yongxingfang.It is far away from Yankangfang, one east and one west.

"Brother, do you think that Yongxingfang is too far away from Yankangfang? It's inconvenient to go back to Prince Pu's mansion, and it's also difficult to communicate secretly with Prince Xian?" Princess Changning seemed to see his reluctance, and chuckled, " But if you are too close, there are all kinds of disadvantages, and it is easy to make people think too much."

"I can save it." The father and son always stay together, and the one who thinks the most is the saint.This is even more so in the Yuewang Mansion. The whole family lives together, and sooner or later they have to leave the mansion.

Then, Li Hui changed the topic back: "Yue Niang, since we want to borrow uncle's strength, why don't we let our aunt give us some advice?" comprehensive.With Empress Du's vision, she will definitely be able to give them some pointers and make up for their loopholes.Perhaps, can also give them more hints.

So, the two cousins ​​went to ask Empress Du again.It's just that they didn't come by coincidence. Outside the Anren Hall, they met a smiling Yang Ba Niang, who was walking with a beautiful girl with a dignified appearance, Niao Ting Ting.This girl was quite unfamiliar, and she had never seen her before. Li Hui sized her up for a few times, then politely looked away——

This person may be the noble daughter of the Pei family from Hedong.Concubine Yang Xian had just recommended her two days ago, and she entered the palace today, as expected, she was well prepared, perhaps she was admitted to Chang'an some time ago.Could it be that Yang Baniang accompanied her to visit Empress Du just for the sake of clearing the way?It was really a coincidence that he came here.

However, speaking carefully, the bearing of this noble daughter of the Pei family is somewhat better than that of Yang Ba Niang.She also seemed to be a smart and intelligent person, her eyes were extremely clear, and she seemed to have no ambitions.Perhaps, unlike Yang Baniang and many new concubines, she entered the palace not because of her own wish, but because of her family's request?

If she had never entered the palace, and he and Wang Zixian had never promised each other, maybe this woman and Wang Zixian would be a good couple.Thinking of this, Li Hui couldn't help but laugh in his heart.If Wang Zixian knew what he was thinking just now, he might be very upset.It should be very interesting to go back and tease him a few words to see how he will react.

After seeing Princess Changning and Li Hui, Yang Baniang and Mrs. Pei stopped and nodded in greeting: "It turns out that they are the noble lord and the county king." Although they are only low-ranking concubines, they are considered elders, so there is no need to be cautious when meeting younger generations .

Of course, such a low-ranking concubine does not need Princess Changning and Li Hui to salute, and the two of them just nodded.Moreover, even if Concubine Yang Xian or Concubine Yuan Shu were present, Princess Changning rarely greeted them.As the most beloved eldest daughter of the saint, she is naturally different.And all her differences are also under the acquiescence of the saint, revealing her unique status, but she never crosses the line.

Sure enough, after Yang Ba Niang brought Mrs. Pei to greet Empress Du, she expressed joy: "Your Highness, this is my concubine's cousin, Pei Shier Niang. Didn't the cousin mention it a few days ago? Today is finally the day of the concubine. She has entered the palace. That's fine, the three concubines and sisters rarely get together before, so they will be able to stay together in the future."

"It's really a wonderful little lady." Empress Du smiled slightly, "I heard that Twelve Niangs used to live in Hedong, so it must be rare for you cousins ​​to meet each other. Seeing how close you are, the sisterhood is also true. Rarely deep."

Yang Ba Niang was about to say a few more words about sisterly love, when she heard Empress Du say again: "In that case, you two should live together. I remember that the palace you live in, Ba Niang, still has an empty side hall. Forget it? Let Twelve Niangs live with you for the time being, and it won’t be too late to move when you get promoted in the future.”

Yang Baniang was startled, her expression was a little stiff for a moment, and then she immediately laughed again: "That would be the best! I thought Twelve Niang would live with her cousin, but unexpectedly she taught my concubine to take the lead. If you let My cousin knows, but I don't know if she will be upset." After that, she covered her lips and smiled, as if she was serious about it.

Mrs. Pei also smiled lightly, took a deep look at her, and then bowed to thank Queen Du.

Empress Du just smiled and said nothing when she saw this.

Princess Changning and Prince Xin'an, who were on the sidelines, expressed their admiration: With a single word, they put Mrs. Pei next to Yang Ba Niang—tonight, no matter whether it is Concubine Yang Xian or Yang Ba Niang, they will be anxious and annoyed.One is worried that Mrs. Pei will be attracted by Yang Ba Niang, and she will not be in harmony with her from then on; the other is worried that she will be favored by the new Mr. Pei, leaving little for her.

Tsk, Empress Du only made one move, and the three sisters are afraid that in the future they will be like the Warring States Period, united vertically and horizontally, with endless twists and turns.
