After refusing to marry the prince, the general regretted it too much

When Imperial Physician Liang went out of the palace to Dingguo's mansion according to the imperial decree, his face was full of sadness.

Among the dignitaries in Tangjing, Dingguo's mansion is the most disliked by imperial physicians.

Others think that it is an honor and a gift for the emperor to send the imperial physician for consultation, but the people in Dingguo's mansion think that...

There are always troublemakers who want to harm the father-in-law.

Although the fact is true, after Ding Guogong returned to Beijing last year, the emperor sent people to pay attention to his "old wounds" several times. When the doctor Liang took a pulse and returned to the palace to report that the serious illness was hard to heal, he saw the emperor's face with his own eyes. That's great. ' look.

But you can't be so honest!

Now, he is going to do this thankless job again.

Physician Liang stood in front of Dingguo's mansion, looking at a few guards with vicious looks and unkind eyes, thinking about it bitterly.

He waited for a while before he saw the person from Duke Ding's mansion who came out to deal with him.

Lu Yanhe, who had grass on his head, was idle.

Lu Yanhe greeted him from the mansion with a humble attitude and warm words.The meaning is the same inside and outside the words. Although my father-in-law is ill, it is an old disease that has been suffering for many years. I know what the situation is, so I don't need to bother the doctor.

Physician Liang returned the salute tremblingly, and insisted: "Forgive me, General Lu, this is... After all, this is His Majesty's holy will. I hope the general will pass on a word or two, so that the humble officer can meet the Lord."

Lu Yan said softly: Do you still want to see the father-in-law?During the trip back to Beijing from southern Xinjiang, I haven't seen many people!

He felt helpless, but he still flirted with Liang Taiyi and winked at the little guard who followed him.

The little guard half-bowed and went into the mansion. After a while, someone quietly walked out of the small gate of Duke Dingguo's mansion and went straight to the Royal Garden.

"Doctor?" Xie Heng looked at the crescent moon hanging high outside the window, and frowned in displeasure.

It's been less than a day since the emperor returned to Beijing, is there too much to worry about?

He vomits blood and feels uneasy, and I have never seen him so diligent in administration.

Xie Heng fished out Qin Ye who had closed his eyes and was about to merge into the bedding, whispered the news in his ear, and asked softly, "Are you going?"

The distance between the Royal Garden and Duke Dingguo's Mansion is not too close, and with Qin Ye's lightness kung fu, one moment is enough to walk on the wall without walking on flat ground.

It's just a little too much.

Qin Ye didn't want to move too much, but he opened his eyes reluctantly, and said in a sullen voice, "Lu Yanhe said two days ago that the people of His Majesty in the mansion have attacked more and more frequently these days. Come to check the results."

He struggled for a while, but he still succumbed to reason in his heart, and propped himself up from the whole body: "I really want to see the imperial doctor, what should I pretend?"

Naturally, Qin Ye didn't care whether he saw an imperial physician or not. The emperor sent people down to take care of his subordinates. How could there be any reason to force important officials in the court to see an imperial physician?

But now whether it is seeing or not seeing, it is related to all kinds of things after the event, so he can't help but care about it.

Seeing his appearance, Xie Heng knew that he was going, and pondered: "That medicine... If you really drank it all, what's the situation now?"

"It's just weak," Qin Ye recalled Lu Yan and the things he handed over, and said slowly, "I don't know what kind of medicine is carefully developed to catch the poison of the falling shadow. Even if you don't know it, you will never get sick." I can't get out of bed."

Xie Heng looked at him, not knowing where the vague complacency on his face came from, and thought for a moment: "Then you don't have to pretend to be bedridden, just look like you used to look at the imperial physician, no matter how weak you are. "

Qin Ye was always too lazy to use his brain when he was around the prince, so he said casually, "Okay."

He unhurriedly got up and changed his clothes, and by the way, he begged for a long kiss with His Highness the crown prince who was resting on the bed, and then left Shi Shiran.

When he arrived at his home where he had been away for a long time, more than half an hour had passed since Imperial Physician Liang first arrived.

Physician Liang was worried as he watched the sky getting darker and darker, and finally saw Lu Yanhe Zhong who had only talked to him outside the gate of the mansion came out to lead him in again, and couldn't help complaining after feeling relieved: "The lowly job is to come here to have a pulse diagnosis by imperial decree. Even if the father-in-law is unwell, it is not appropriate to hide his illness and avoid the doctor."

This is the feeling that I have waited too long.

Lu Yanhe walked in front, saw the lights and shadows scattered in Zhiwei Hall, and said, "Master Liang, who is the one who waited for a long time at the gate of the Duke's Mansion last time?"

Physician Liang: "..."

Who in Mantang capital doesn't know that Dingguo Duke Qin Ye has a surly personality, and even the crown prince personally visited him for half an hour, so what is he?

The little resentment in my heart dissipated quietly, but I was a little timid.

When the emperor summoned him today and ordered him to come to Dingguo's mansion to ask for pulse, his face was much more gloomy than before, and his tone could not be regarded as warm, but rather gloomy.

Naturally, it cannot be ruled out that the emperor was in a guilty conscience because of the prince's assassination of the king of Jin.But how can the world be accurate?

Ever since Ding Guogong returned to Beijing to recuperate from his illness, the emperor has always looked at this man not very pleasing to his eyes.

This trembling emotion that could not be expressed was maintained until Doctor Liang entered the inner room.

It was early autumn, and the night was a bit chilly. The world-famous Great Qi God of War was not wearing a single suit like in the past, but a robe, and sat on the soft bed by the window with a tired expression.

Although his complexion was not as good as before, he didn't have the look of "too sick to get out of bed" in the emperor's mouth at all.

Imperial Physician Liang's heart skipped a beat, and after a salute, he said with some hesitation: "I am humbled by His Majesty's decree, to ask for your pulse."

Qin Ye raised his eyelids, looked at him and said, "I'm an old acquaintance, what are you hesitating for?"

Very good, I haven't seen you for a few months, Duke Ding is still the same Duke Ding, who can choke to death with one mouth.

The only difference is that, compared to the leisurely and leisurely time when he returned to Beijing for the first time, it is just that he has a different temper on the surface. This time, Qin Ye has a bit of lingering depression on his body.When you look at someone with concentration, your neck gets chills.

After a long while, Imperial Physician Liang still looked trembling, and only withdrew his hand to take the pulse, feeling a little doubtful in his heart.

This pulse... is indeed much worse than it was a year ago.Although it was not as serious as the emperor said, it was too serious to get up, but in his opinion, if the man in front of him who had been in the army for a long time was not in good health, he might have lost half of his life if someone else came.

He originally reported before the imperial court that he might lose his life due to severe illness on the battlefield, but now it seems that it is not as simple as losing his life.

It's just... It's only been a year before and after, what happened here?

Imperial Physician Liang suppressed the doubts in his heart, stood up and bowed to Qin Ye, and said respectfully, "Although my father-in-law is weaker than before, I think it is because of the exhaustion of patrolling southern borders. But most of the time there is no hindrance to his movements, just need more support. , it can be restored to its original state.”

Qin Ye sneered in his heart. He knew exactly what the pulse condition he had fabricated with his internal strength, but to get such an evaluation, the kung fu of the Tai Hospital's eyes open and telling lies was no worse than anyone else's.

Thinking this way in his heart, he raised his chin indifferently on his face: "Torian Imperial Physician Ji Yan."

Imperial Physician Liang forced a smile, looked at the stern and lonely face in front of him, and encouraged himself, but couldn't help but retreated half a body, and then said: "Your Majesty ordered the humble officer to say that if the father-in-law is in good health I'm in serious trouble, five days from now there will be a small court meeting in the Taiji Hall, so please be sure to attend the grand lord."

Qin Ye raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, and said, "The small court meeting in the Taiji Hall, even if His Majesty wants your subjects to attend, you should let the imperial eunuch deliver the decree, or the Lizheng Hall issue a document."

The plain and straightforward words made Imperial Physician Liang bow even lower, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty has ordered you to do so, and the humble officer is only following the order."

"Your Majesty also said that the attack on the Southern Zhou Dynasty came halfway because of the lack of money and food in the court. Now that the money bank in the court has been accumulated for many years, it is time to mobilize the troops. It doesn't matter whether the Duke of the country will come or not at the small court meeting. , the matter involves the Southern Zhou Dynasty, it is better to invite the father-in-law to come."

Qin Ye's always indifferent face finally had some vivid expressions.

Southern Zhou... The emperor wants to touch Southern Zhou at this time?

Earlier, the crown prince killed all directions in Ming County, and wiped out all the hard work of Nan Zhou for many years. The new king of Nan Zhou, who had just succeeded to the throne, had no face. The prestige of the ruling and opposition parties.

Duan Wang was able to exchange a bad check for the current number one master in Southern Zhou Dynasty, and there is also a reason why the new king of Southern Zhou Dynasty jumped over the wall in a hurry.

It is indeed a good time to do it at this time.

"Fight Southern Zhou?" The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, revealing a very dull and shallow smile in the eyes of Imperial Physician Liang, "Please ask the imperial physician to tell His Majesty on your behalf, I will definitely go to the Xiaochao meeting."

-

Jin Wangfu.

It was almost noon, and Xie Ke, who was dressed in a strong outfit, put down his long sword in boredom, and finally let go of the guards who only dared to defend and refused to fight back. He sneered and was about to go back home for dinner.

He had already entered the gate of the palace, but from the corner of his eyes, he saw a fast horse coming in a hurry, dismounted in front of the gate of the palace, walked quickly to the leader Xie Zhiyao, and said something in a low voice.

Xie Ke paused, and saw that Xie Zhiyao waved his hand immediately after hearing what the man said, and actually made a gesture to withdraw the troops and return to the camp.

Xie Ke quit at that time.

He turned back two steps, and staggered the commanding Xie Zhiyao, dragged him to the front of the mansion, and said: "What are you doing? Are you leaving?"

Xie Zhiyao was puzzled, but he still bowed slightly and said: "His Royal Highness orders, summoning ministers to return to the palace and wait for orders."

Xie Ke raised his eyes slightly, the expression in his eyes was dark and unclear.

He has been kept in the mansion these days, and the news is more closed than before, and many things can only be guessed.

The withdrawal of the people from the Eastern Palace at least illustrates one fact.

The emperor is back, or even, the assassination of the prince has already set a basic tone.

A smile appeared on Xie Ke's face, and he held back Xie Zhiyao and refused to let him go: "This king's palace is where you come and go whenever you want? Since you have been here for many days, why don't you stay?" Stay for two more days."

Xie Zhiyao: ...

Xie Ke returned to his main courtyard with a somber face, all the guards of the Eastern Palace outside the Prince Jin's Mansion were evacuated except for the leader, and many news that could not be delivered to the Palace finally came in.

Xu Wenyou, the great eunuch next to the King of Jin, held a stack of letterheads, and read to the King of Jin urgently: "Yesterday, Your Majesty went down to the Royal Garden and met His Royal Highness, and after returning to the palace, he passed on the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment. Chen Ziyue was in his office of the Ministry of Punishment today, and all he investigated was the connection between Guo Xian, the former servant of the Ministry of Officials, and this matter."

"Early this morning, His Royal Highness ordered the guards to lead the guards, and all the people in the East Palace inside and outside the palace have been withdrawn."

Xie Ke let out a long breath of relief.

"I really haven't noticed..." he said, "My elder brother, the prince, is still a man of promise."

His elder brother was much more cordial than the emperor's elder brother who called out affectionately on the face of the past.

Xie Ke played this scene with the prince, but he actually took a great risk.

Although he had reached a tacit agreement with the prince long ago, he wanted to blame King Duan for everything he had done, but Xie Ke was the one who took the blame first.

Although King Duan is cunning, is the prince a good thing?

What if the prince changed his mind temporarily and didn't want to fight back against King Duan, but wanted to take advantage of the situation and kill him?

Xie Ke would not have played this scene with the prince if he hadn't already been in the game and his lifeline was in the hands of the prince.

Xu Wenyou wanted to read it again, Xie Ke waved his hand indifferently: "I don't want to listen, it's not important. You find someone to look after Xie Zhiyao, and you don't have to treat him harshly, but you must not let him run away."

Xu Wenyou stopped what he was doing in confusion, and couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, what's the use of keeping Xie Zhiyao in check?"

Xie Ke snorted: "What do you know?"

"Back then, the King of Lushan County was imprisoned for colluding with the Southern Zhou Dynasty, and his whole family was almost confiscated. Xie Zhiyao had nothing to do with the East Palace before, but he went to the gate of Mingde Hall and knelt for a long time. Not long after, the crown prince took action and slowed down the investigation of the Ministry of Justice. come down."

"Afterwards, Xie Zhiyao joined the commanding guards as the son of a criminal minister. Not long after, he raised a hundred households, and now he has a thousand households. It can be said that everything is going smoothly."

"Even the prince went to southern border, and he didn't forget to collect evidence to exonerate the king of Lushan County. Now everyone has been released. This king has been thinking, he went to southern border... is it for Xie Zhiyao?"

Xu Wenyou was greatly shocked.

King Jin's words sound...quite reasonable.

Thinking about Xie Zhiyao's appearance and figure, it makes more sense.

However, if this is true, why did you detain the person on the crown prince's heart?

Xie Ke didn't care about the splendor on his face, he patted the table and said, "Bring the pen and ink."

Xu Wenyou swallowed the shock in his heart, and forced himself to get out the pen and ink, and arranged them on the table that King Jin hadn't touched for several days.

Xie Ke thought about his own deduction, and felt more and more reasonable, but he couldn't tell others, so he had to say to Xu Wenyou in high spirits: "This king wants to write and exchange letters with the prince!"

"If you want to bring people back, you can exchange them with Ning Xun!"
