In the end, Emperor Mingde accepted to ask Zihua to treat him, but he was a little bit unwilling, so he gave Fuquan a look, Fuquan understood, went into the bedroom, took out a box, opened it, and took out a gold thread and handed it to Zihua. painting.

When everyone was puzzled, Emperor Mingde said: "I am not used to being touched by others. Since you are confident in your medical skills, you must also be able to diagnose the pulse by hanging silk in the legend. Why don't you demonstrate it now so that all of us can feel it?" Long experience."

The sub-screen took the golden thread from Fuquan expressionlessly, and after fiddling with it, he stretched out his hand suddenly. The golden thread shot out from his palm and was tied tightly around Emperor Mingde's wrist. Everyone was dumbfounded.

After the expected effect was achieved, Zihua sat down in front of a tea table in a calm manner, with her index and middle fingers resting lightly on the gold thread, her eyes were lightly closed, her expression was serious, as if she was concentrating on listening to her pulse.

There was complete silence in the room, even Emperor Mingde and the Empress looked at Zihua in amazement, they never thought that the emperor's son would still be interested in a master of Xinglin, but at this time An Xining was enduring the hard work with a smile on his face, He kept lowering his head, fearing that Emperor Ming De and the others would see any flaws.

The prince secretly patted An Xining with his wide sleeves, and said calmly: "Father is in front of you, fifth brother, please restrain yourself."

An Xining nodded, took a deep breath and wanted to swallow the smile back, but he couldn't help laughing whenever he saw Zi Hua's pretentious appearance. When the prince looked over with doubting eyes again, he finally endured He couldn't help whispering into the Prince's ear: "Brother Huang, Zihua doesn't know medical skills at all, let alone suspending silk to diagnose the pulse. I see that he is serious now, and he even frightened his father into thinking about it for a while. laugh."

The prince went to see Zihua in surprise. He really couldn't imagine that such a gentleman could do deceitful things without changing his face. The key is that the three highest-status people in the world were all deceived by him!

After half a cup of tea, as soon as Zi Hua took the gold thread back from Emperor Mingde's wrist, the queen asked anxiously, "What's wrong with your Majesty, is there any medicine?"

Zihua said: "The emperor is not suffering from any disease, but has been poisoned, and it has been going on for a while."

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the audience was shocked, the empress immediately turned pale, and asked: "What kind of poison did His Majesty suffer from? Who would be so bold as to dare to poison His Majesty!"

Although Emperor Mingde didn't say anything, his heart was overwhelmed. He was always careful about his food and drink, how could people be poisoned without knowing it?

Fuquan knelt down on the ground at this time, kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, this servant deserves to die. This servant didn't take precautions well, and that's why your majesty has been tricked by evil people."

"Fuquan, get up first. I have seen your loyalty and prudence on weekdays. I can't blame you for being poisoned this time. You don't have to blame yourself. You must be able to poison me many times without being discovered. People in the palace, as the saying goes, guard against a house thief, the most difficult thing to guess is the human heart, how can you take care of everything."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fuquan stood up tremblingly. Since he followed Emperor Mingde, he has been careful everywhere. Even though Emperor Mingde did not blame him, but after all, this incident happened within his own responsibility, and he couldn't get past this test in his heart. If he was asked to find out who poisoned him, he would have to peel off his skin .

An Xining, who had been working so hard to hold back his laughter, tried his best to adjust his expression, and said with righteous indignation: "Who on earth would dare to be so bold as to attack Father, Zihua, what kind of poison did my father suffer from?"

Zihua glanced at him with a half-smile, and said to everyone: "This poison has a very nice name, it's called Mimeng, and it's a poison from the scorpion family in the Western Regions. The aroma of this spice is similar, so it is difficult to find it. Those who are poisoned by this spice will have nightmares and be in a trance within a hundred days.

Both Emperor Mingde and the Empress gasped, they didn't expect the poisoner to be so vicious, it was more vicious than killing someone.

"Zi Hua, can His Majesty's poison be cured, and will there be sequelae?"

"Queen, don't worry, listen to me one by one. Although the emperor's poison is vicious, the person who poisoned him may have scruples, so the weight of the poison is extremely light. The emperor's poisoning is not deep. Wait for me to grab some medicines." After the emperor took it, the remaining poison should be cleared away. As for the sequelae, this is the second thing I want to talk about. I just found a strange thing when I was taking the pulse. Although the poison was raging in the emperor's body, it never It has never invaded the heart veins, this has never happened before, I wonder if there is an expert who has healed the emperor and has protected your foundation and clarity?"

Emperor Mingde thought for a moment, then denied, "I have never encountered any high-level people."

"That's strange. It turns out that the poison is ferocious. Even if it is pulled out, there will be some sequelae. But because of the help of the master, you will be able to recover, Your Majesty, safe and sound."

An Xining listened silently to Zihua's calmly making up lies, which simply refreshed his understanding of Zihua.

At this time, the queen looked excited, and said to Emperor Mingde: "Your Majesty, who said that you have never met an expert, the expert who protects your heart must be the old fairy in your dream."

"Old fairy?"

"That's right," Emperor Mingde said to Zihua with a rare kindness, "I was rescued by an old fairy in my dream a few days ago, and I was instructed by him to let you come to treat my illness."

Zihua pretended to be suddenly enlightened and said to Emperor Mingde: "Since you are a god, it must be that Zhai has a kind heart and can't bear to see your majesty being murdered by a traitor."

Emperor Mingde asked him to say yes.

An Xining stood up and said, "Father, you have decreed that if anyone can cure your nightmare disease, you will not only reward him with a thousand taels of gold, but also satisfy his wish unconditionally. Are you serious?"

"This..." Emperor Mingde was in trouble. Of course he knew what An Xining meant when he said this. As a father, how could he agree to it? But as the king of a country, the most important thing for him is to keep his promise. Promise, now that the imperial decree has been issued, everyone in the world is watching his every word and deed. If he repents at this time, it will be a breach of trust to the people and lose the face of the royal family. No one will listen to the implementation of policies in the future.

After thinking about it, he is now at the point of riding a tiger, so he can only bite the bullet and say: "If a gentleman makes a word, it is hard to follow a horse, not to mention that I am the king of a country, and the role model of a country is of course a promise, and the imperial decree has been issued." , is it a child's play?"

An Xining immediately smiled and said: "In that case, my son hereby thank the emperor first."

Emperor Mingde snorted coldly: "Don't thank me in a hurry, whether he can get rid of my poison or not is another matter. It's not too late for you to ask after I recover."

"Then Father, you should prepare the dowry for your son and minister first," An Xining said while pulling Zihua's hand, "Let's go down and make medicine for you, Emperor Father, and leave first."

After the two left, Emperor Mingde put the teacup down heavily, and said angrily: "It is said that girls are extroverted, and I gave birth to a son whose elbow is also turned outward. Now I want to point out a man for my emperor to marry. I'm afraid I'll lose all face."

"Father's words are wrong."

"Oh? How should I say it?" Emperor Mingde looked at the crown prince, and the crown prince said calmly: "Father, your face is what people in the world say, and the people in the world rely on public opinion. Father, you just have to say what you said in your dream. Received the guidance of the gods, the man in white who cured your illness and the fifth younger brother are a match made in heaven. You followed the destiny to marry the two of you. In time, the rumors about fifth younger brother attracting evildoers and making you sick will be self-defeating."

"This method is very good, what do you think, Your Majesty?"

"How else can I feel that the words have been finished by you." Emperor Mingde snorted angrily. Who can understand how he, as a father, wants to push his son to another man with his own hands? !

"emperor."

"Fuquan, what's the matter with you?"

"Your majesty," Fuquan knelt in front of Emperor Mingde and said, "I just heard from the young master that the delusional dreams in you are mixed with incense so that it will not be easy to be discovered. After thinking about it, this slave means that the incense you use at night has a chance to be tampered with." Now, if this is the case, it means that this slave has neglected his duty, and this slave dare not shirk his responsibility, but I beg the emperor to give this slave a chance to make amends, and personally bring that villain to justice.”

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, Fuquan, and report back to me anytime you have clues."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

It was rare for Emperor Mingde to have a good sleep that night, but Concubine Xian was restless at night.

"Chunzhi, how's the news going?"

As soon as Chun Zhi entered the palace, he was caught by the concubine Xian before he could catch his breath, so he could only say: "Your Majesty, this servant just heard that the prince found the man in white, and the man in white also diagnosed that the emperor was poisoned. The names are all spoken."

"What," Concubine Xian's brows were upside down, "Then does he have a way to detoxify?"

Chun Zhi nodded, she was out of control at this moment, and said with tears in her eyes: "Eunuch Liang also said that the emperor is afraid that the emperor suspected that it was the hands of someone in the palace, and has ordered Eunuch Fu to investigate the matter thoroughly. Madam, do you think you will?" Will it be found on us?"

Concubine Xian bit her red lips with her white teeth, tightly twisted the silk handkerchief with her smeared fingers, and after sprinting back and forth a few times, her heart sank, and she said to Chun Zhi: "Now go and pass on a message to Eunuch Liang on behalf of me. In other words, if he dares to say a word indiscriminately, I will let his relatives in Ninghan's hometown die without a place to bury him!"

Chun Zhi shrank and did not dare to go, Concubine Xian raised her hand and slapped her: "You dare not go now, and wait for the emperor to kill your head in the future. Can you bear the crime of murdering the current emperor? Don't you?" Forget, this is the death penalty for Zhu Jiu Clan!"

Chun Zhi was so frightened that she fell limp on the ground, clutching the hem of Concubine Xian's clothes and crying: "My maidservant is going, my maidservant is going right away, I beg your mother to save this maidservant's life."

"As long as you obediently work for Ben Gong, Ben Gong will naturally protect you."

"Thank you madam."
