Zhuo Qihua

Emperor Yong'an learned that Zhuo Ji asked him to send someone to get the medicine, and it would be better for Zhang Xian to go there in person.Emperor Yong'an immediately left Fengtian Hall with his inner guards.Zhuo Ji did not expect His Majesty the Emperor to come in person.

As soon as Emperor Yong'an entered the East Pavilion, he saw Zhuo Ji and asked, "What is this 'Huang Yan Xiao' medicine? It made you so cautious?"

Zhuo Ji replied: "Clears heat and detoxifies, cools blood and removes blood stasis, reduces swelling and relieves pain. The most important thing is that it is a very effective anti-inflammatory and antibacterial drug." After Zhuo Ji explained the efficacy of this drug in detail, Yongan The emperor was greatly (shocked) pleasantly surprised, and said directly: "This medicine is extremely useful for warfare!"

Zhuo Ji nodded: "So, Your Majesty, for the sake of this minister's hard work, you can spare me from going to worship the ancestors tomorrow. I will definitely not be able to get up tomorrow."

Emperor Yong'an laughed a few times, got up and walked to Zhuo Ji, pulled him up and hugged him in his arms, and said happily: "You are really my lucky star."

"Ha ha……"

"I'm ready."

Emperor Yong'an lowered his head, accurately captured Zhuo Ji's lips, and seized the city.Zhuo Ji felt that he was at a disadvantage, not to mention that there was no real reward for his hard work in making anti-inflammatory drugs, and he had to "serve" His Majesty the Emperor.

After the kiss was over, Emperor Yong'an gasped and whispered in Zhuo Ji's ear: "The more you behave like this, the more I can't help but want to kill you immediately!"

Zhuo Ji was also gasping for breath, his body limp in Emperor Yong'an's arms, he asked back: "Then in order to let Your Majesty bear more, I'd better not be too diligent?"

"No."

Emperor Yong'an bowed his head and sealed Zhuo Ji's lips again.Zhuo Ji is the elder brother, he is no longer willing to appear weak, and his physical instinct also makes him weak in the "love affair" with Emperor Yong'an.Emperor Yong'an's kiss was so hot that Zhuo Ji felt that he was thrown into boiling water, and his whole body was scalded limp.It has to be said that Emperor Yong'an, a veteran in love, has very good kissing skills. Zhuo Ji felt that if Emperor Yong'an wanted to kill him now, he probably wouldn't have the strength to resist.

Fortunately, Emperor Yong'an still remembered that he wanted to be abstinent, so he reluctantly let Zhuo Ji go.Zhuo Ji made a total of [-] sticks of "Huang Yan Xiao". He kept ten sticks for himself, gave one to Dezhen, and gave the rest to Emperor Yong'an.And this time, all the medicinal materials from the southern Guangdong region he had obtained from the Imperial Medical Office were used up, and at the same time, the medicinal materials he received from the Imperial Medical Office were also running out.

Emperor Yong'an will get up early tomorrow, starting from Fengtian Temple.He had dinner with Zhuo Ji in Xiangfu Palace, and kissed Zhuo Ji all over again before returning to Fengtian Palace full of satisfaction.Zhuo Ji didn't mention the prescription, and Emperor Yong'an didn't mention the prescription to Zhuo Ji either.If the efficacy of "Huangyanxiao" can really reach what Zhuo Ji said, then Emperor Yong'an dare not let Zhuo Ji take out the prescription of "Huangyanxiao".

Before dawn the next day, Emperor Yong'an desperately got up.At this time, Zhuo Ji had just fallen asleep after not having a good night's sleep.Only concubines, concubines, and above need to worship the ancestors, but His Majesty has already got up, and they must also get up early, and concubines who are not qualified to participate in the ancestor worship also get up early, and they are going to pay their respects to the queen mother, concubine, and concubine.

At the time of Mao, Emperor Yong'an completed all the matters of offering sacrifices to the site at the altar, and immediately went to the imperial clan hall.There, the concubines headed by the Empress Dowager, the royal family members and the important court officials who are qualified to come are waiting.The arrival of His Majesty the Emperor means the beginning of the ancestor worship ceremony.Everyone was surprised to find that Zhuo Ji, who was just promoted to the rank of 伃 just yesterday, did not come!How dare he not come!

The Empress Dowager stood by the emperor's side as usual, following the ceremonial officials' instructions to bow down to the ancestors.After the ancestor worship was over, the miserable Emperor Yong'an went to the Yuren and went out of the palace to climb Wa Nu Mountain to worship the heaven.The queen mother and others stopped following.But the Queen Mother was not idle.Today is the Double Ninth Festival, a big day, and there will be a formal palace banquet in the evening.After the ancestor worship, the Empress Dowager returned to Shoukang Palace to rest for a while, and then went to the Royal Garden to enjoy chrysanthemums and drink tea with the concubines and servants of the palaces.There will be a palace banquet in the evening, and there will be a grand song and dance performance.

Back at Shoukang Palace, the Empress Dowager had a late breakfast, took a nap on the couch, changed into dark purple clothes and went to the Imperial Garden.At this time, in the imperial garden, all the concubines and concubines had gathered, even Yan Xuan who was in the West Third Courtyard was there.However, Yan Xuan stood alone in the corner, no one spoke to him, looking quite pitiful.

As soon as the Empress Dowager showed up, everyone surrounded her. The concubines were led by Concubine Xi and Xie Jia.Concubine Xi Gui and Concubine Jia Guixie also logically stood on both sides of the Empress Dowager, supporting the Empress Dowager.As princes, both Nan Rong Chen and Nan Rong Chen will follow the emperor to Wa Nu Mountain to sacrifice to heaven today.It can be said that not only Emperor Yong'an will be very hard on this day, but the two princes will also be very hard. They have to attend the whole process of worshiping the land, ancestors and heaven.Because of this, Dezhen seemed a little absent-minded at the moment, and he was very worried about whether his son could persevere.Nan Rong Chenmu had to participate in the annual ancestor worship activities since he was two years old, and every time he came back, he would suffer from a serious illness.

Today's weather is good, the sun is rising in the sun, the temperature is not too low.After the queen mother sat down, she asked, "Jiaguixie, Deju, Chenzhu and Chenzhu, can they still hold on when they worship their ancestors?"

Jia Guixie replied first: "Back to the Empress Dowager, he looked very energetic when he worshiped the ancestors. When he left, he smiled at the servants, so it should be fine."

The queen mother looked at Dezhen: "Chen Mu's health has always been bad, before he left, did the personal eunuch beside him say anything to you?"

Dezhen replied: "I didn't say anything to Shishen, but Shishen saw that Mu'er's complexion is not bad. Mu'er has been exercising recently, and it should be better than last year."

The Queen Mother sighed: "Chen Mu is still young after all, and in two years' time, his body should be in better shape. You don't have to worry too much with the eunuch and nuns accompanying you."

"Yes." Dezhen said yes, but he still couldn't let it go.

The queen mother greeted everyone: "Come, sit down. Everyone is tired today, sit down and rest, and drink tea with this old woman."

"Queen, you are not old."

"My queen, you seem to be in good spirits."

"The Queen Mother..."

All of a sudden, there were praises praising the queen mother for being young, and the queen mother was coaxed into laughing.After everyone ate several bowls of tea, Concubine Xi asked casually, "Queen Mother, why didn't you see Shunyou today? But you feel unwell again?"

The queen mother smiled and said: "Yesterday the emperor sent someone to say that he was exempted from worshiping the ancestors today. I am afraid that he is not in good health again. Dezhen, you go to his palace and see if he is okay, call He came out to bask in the sun. Laying in the palace all day is not good for your health." Of course the Empress Dowager knew the truth.

Dezhen was stunned for a moment, then stood up and said with a smile: "What the queen mother said is true. The servant will go here. If he is okay, the servant will drag him here."

"Haha, okay, I'll leave it to you, you go and drag him here."

Dezhen left with Fuquan and Ruyi.The others looked at each other in blank dismay. This virtue and Shunyou were close to each other inside and out.And the Queen Mother also obviously likes Shunyou very much, and she is not at all displeased by Shunyou's future ancestor worship.But after thinking about it, everyone understood.Isn't Dezhen the closest person in the palace to Shunyan?

Zhuo Ji took a stroll in the yard.After learning from the pain, he decided not to be so lazy anymore.It is still necessary to exercise, and it is still necessary to pick up the lost self-defense skills.Although he was weak in the past, it was not a problem to catch up for a day.It's good now, after walking for such a long distance yesterday, after tossing and tossing for a few hours, he was exhausted and collapsed.No, no, no, even if his body has more female components, he can't just break the pot and really turn himself in the direction of women.Zhuo Ji was still imagining his way to rise as a man, and then Dezhen came.

In the imperial garden, many concubines and servants were a little absent-minded, even the queen mother would look in the direction of entering the imperial garden from time to time to see if anyone was coming.It's been almost half an hour, and no one has come yet, Concubine Wen who was sitting next to Concubine Xi said, "I'm afraid Shunyou hasn't got up yet, it's been so long and he hasn't arrived yet."

Concubine Xiao, who was beside Concubine Wen, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and continued, "Shunyou has won His Majesty's favor. I heard that he can't sleep well at night. I'm afraid he hasn't woken up yet."

Both of them had smiles on their faces when they were talking, but everyone present was smart, and no one could tell that they were giving Zhuo Ji eye drops.The Queen Mother wants to meet someone, and you are still late, which is really disrespectful.The queen mother glanced at the two of them, said nothing, and the smile on her face became lighter.Concubine Wen and Concubine Xiao glanced at each other casually, Concubine Xi lowered her eyes to sip tea, Xie Jia glanced around at the concubine, and said, "I heard from Your Majesty that he doesn't like to dress up. , His Majesty still thinks that he is embarrassing to His Majesty when he goes out, so I'm afraid he is busy cleaning himself up right now."

As soon as Jia Guixie spoke, Concubine Xi raised her eyes and looked over.The maids who originally wanted to say a few words immediately shut up.The smile on the Empress Dowager's face returned, and she said, "It's very possible. The emperor often told the old man that he was sloppy and didn't like to dress up."

Concubine Wen was about to say something, but Concubine Xi coughed twice, and she swallowed the words.Concubine Xi drank two more sips of tea and said: "Yesterday I met Shunyou, she looks gorgeous and looks good, presumably even if she doesn't usually dress up, it's because of her natural beauty."

The queen mother laughed twice, but didn't answer.

Mingyu, who was sitting a seat away from Jiaguixie, said at this moment: "Hey, someone is coming, it's Dezhen, the one walking behind Dezhen is Shunyi, right?"

Everyone looked over immediately, and the Queen Mother even stood up while supporting Aunt Shen's hand, the smile on her face deepened.The eyes of several people who saw this scene changed slightly.

Zhuo Ji was wearing a crescent white gold embroidered dress, and had a "swallow holding a pearl" hair style.The hair style of the swallow holding beads is that part of the hair hangs behind, and the other part of the hair is coiled up to wear a special black hair crown. This kind of hair crown protrudes a finger long from the middle, and hangs gem tassels. From the side, it looks like a swallow looking up. First, hold the orb in your mouth.But it is inconvenient to wear other hair accessories with this hairstyle, so the expensive brothers usually seldom wear this hairstyle.On Zhuo Ji's head was only the emerald green jade bead he was holding, nothing else.He didn't put any makeup on his face, only a little transparent lip balm on his lips, which he made for Xiaohui when he was in the West Third Hospital.Zhuo Ji wouldn't put any makeup on his face, let alone red lip balm, Dezhen had no choice but to let him.

When Zhuo Ji approached, everyone's first feeling was "this dress is too shabby", followed by a strong sense of sour vinegar.Dressed so shabby, and his appearance is not very gorgeous, how could he be able to fascinate His Majesty into that look?

Zhuo Ji's waist was hung with several ornaments, and as he walked, the ornaments made jingling sounds.Zhuo Ji followed Dezhen all the way, walked into the gazebo, lifted the hem of his clothes in a very free and easy manner, knelt down and kowtowed: "Song Zhuo Ji pays respects to the Empress Dowager."

The queen mother smiled and stretched out her hand: "Get up."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager."

Xiaohui and Chang Jing, who knelt down with him, stood up before him, and then helped him up.Zhuo Ji then performed court salutes to the left and right respectively, paying respects to Concubine Jiagui and Concubine Xi.Jia Guixie smiled politely at him, but Xi Guifei just nodded lightly.Zhuo Ji didn't know anyone else, and Dezhen didn't tell him who he had to greet, so he didn't do anything.

The queen mother stretched out her hand: "Come here, come here, let the old man take a good look at you."

The serving eunuch immediately brought a stool and placed it beside the queen mother, next to Jiaguixie.Miss Jiagui didn't see the slightest bit of anger, but Yan Xuan, who was sitting among elegant people but ignored, secretly gritted his silver teeth.Concubine Xi's face also turned ugly for a moment, she didn't understand why the Queen Mother loved Zhuo Ji whom she had never seen before so much!

Zhuo Ji sat down generously beside the queen mother, allowing the queen mother to look at him carefully.Emperor Yong'an laughed and scolded Zhuo Ji for his thick skin, but in fact he also admitted in his heart that Zhuo Ji was indeed naturally beautiful.It's just that he looked haggard because he didn't sleep well during the night, and his eyes also had the shadow of lack of sleep, which lowered his appearance.

After carefully examining Zhuo Ji's facial features, the queen mother naturally took his hand and asked, "The emperor said that you don't sleep well every night, what medicine do you take?"

Others only thought that the queen mother was holding Zhuo Ji's hand and talking, but they didn't know that the queen mother was touching the calluses that shouldn't be in Zhuo Ji's palm.Zhuo Ji replied: "It's just to take some medicines for nourishing the body and conditioning the body. I have been like this since I was a child, and I am used to it. Your Majesty said that the Empress Dowager was not in good health a while ago. I wonder if she is better now?"

The queen mother smiled and said, "It's much better. The emperor found a 'good medicine' for the old man, and he will be fine after taking it."

Zhuo Ji laughed.Zhuo Ji understood what the Empress Dowager meant, and the Empress Dowager also indirectly told Zhuo Ji what she knew.The two were talking code words here, but the others didn't understand. They just didn't understand why the Queen Mother treated Zhuo Ji so differently and let him sit beside her.The Queen Mother touched the calluses on Zhuo Ji's palm again, then let go of his hand and said, "When the day is fine, you still have to come out and walk around more. Being bored in Xiangfu Palace all day is not good for your body. If you have something, let it go as soon as you can, and don’t rush it for a while. The emperor always tells the old man that you are too plain, and the old man looks good at your appearance. If you are fine, you can go to Shoukang Palace more often, and talk to the old man Talk to me." These cocoons are probably left for making those medicines.

Zhuo Ji stood up and saluted, then sat down and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Queen Mother. You don't think your servant is sloppy. From now on, your servant will often go to Shoukang Palace to bother the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother may think that I have gone too much. "

"Ha ha……"

Concubine Wen covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and said in a low voice with disdain: "Slap me!"
