Xie Xiang

The emperor fell ill as soon as he got back. I don't know if he caught a cold in the late spring, or what, his whole body was hot and hot that night.Hu Ao was in a hurry. He knew that His Majesty had suffered an illness before he ascended the throne and nearly died, and he didn't know what to do.

The emperor is still young, and there is a lack of a person in charge in this palace. Normally, she can make up her own mind, but in the current situation, she doesn't even have a backbone.

Hu Ao hurriedly ordered a medical officer to come, and knowing that His Majesty had an unpleasant conversation with Prime Minister Xie during the day, he was afraid that His Majesty would be ill at this time and cause major troubles, so he asked people to go quietly, only looking for the imperial physician's order, so as not to disturb others .

Liu Zao was very uncomfortable, she felt like she was roasted on the fire, her whole body was hot, and it was like being splashed with cold water, it was so cold that she didn't feel better for a moment.

The Imperial Physician came in a hurry, felt his pulse, was startled, and asked: "Why is Your Majesty so frightened, the fever is so severe?"

How did Hu Ao know, he waved his hand, and said with a bitter face, "Cure it quickly."

The Imperial Physician Ling sighed, and had no choice but to consider the medication, but he was not sure.If it burns like this, the heart, liver, spleen and lungs will be burnt out, so he can only reduce the fever first.

The greenhouse hall was busy all night.It seems that there are many people in the palace, but in fact, when the time comes, they are all outsiders.I don't know how many palace guards and palace people are guarding outside the greenhouse, but the little emperor's sick bed is empty, she is lying on the bed alone, when the medicine is finished, a group of palace people rush in, the medicine is poured, everyone retreats, and then She was alone, and there was no one to greet her.

Hu Ao came to visit from time to time, and felt that His Majesty was suffering too. At such a young age, all six relatives were lost, leaving only one grandmother, who was still separated by the palace wall and could not get close at any time.The palace people were afraid of being involved, so they didn't dare to get too close. Even the imperial physicians didn't dare to apply medicine because there was no one in charge. They could only treat conservatively, so as not to make mistakes.

Hu Ao was also afraid that the emperor would really have something to do, so he had a good talk with the imperial physician.The Imperial Physician Ling sighed: "This is a heartache, and it is also cold. The cold is easy to dispel, and the heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine."

The side medicine is easy to find, but where should the heart medicine be found?

Hu Ao was also helpless when he heard the words, and secretly said in his heart, if His Majesty still doesn't get better tomorrow, he must invite the Prime Minister to thank him.

The whole night, the emperor lay on the bed, his body temperature was scorching hot, he was dazed and sweating constantly.Seeing that she was so seriously ill, Hu Ao was almost desperate, and planned to send someone to look for a thank you as soon as the palace gate opened, but the little emperor woke up before dawn.

When Hu Ao saw that His Majesty opened his eyes, he was overjoyed immediately, and hurriedly ordered the imperial physician to come and see.Liu Zao felt uncomfortable all over, and there were ghosts in the foreground. She raised her hand and grabbed Hu Ao's sleeve, and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't let the news go out, don't let the outside of the palace know."

Her throat was burnt hoarse, Hu Ao pricked up his ears to listen, and as he promised, he ordered warm soup to moisten his throat with His Majesty.

Before Liu Zao had time to drink a sip of water, he passed out again.

She didn't know why she was so sick.She was very tired, and she wanted to take a rest, or just went like this, it was not bad.It's just that she thought again that Xiang Xie's wholehearted support for her was not for her, she was still useful, and she wanted to rehabilitate the queen and the prince.She promised to thank Xiang, if she slipped her words, she would feel even more disgusted.

She tried her best to survive, and the first thing she thought of when she woke up was not to let Xiang Xie know.If she knew, she might think that she was playing tricks, that she would pester her again.

The word "disgusting" really hurt her too much. Just thinking of Xie Yi made her feel unworthy and insulted.

Hu Ao got the emperor's order, so he quickly dismissed the idea of ​​inviting Xie Yi, and he also issued orders inside and outside the conservatory hall. Whenever there was a hint of wind outside, everyone in the hall would sit together, thus covering up the news of the emperor's serious illness. Strictly.

So Xie Yi didn't know what happened in the palace.She only felt that His Majesty had been extremely quiet these past few days. He did not see any ministers, nor did he comment on the manuscript. He was silent in the palace, without any sound.

She couldn't help being disappointed, no matter what, His Majesty shouldn't delay political affairs.

The wound on the arm has not healed yet, a thin layer of scab formed on the outside, and the inside often hurts, especially the bone, the pain is indescribable.Changing the medicine at night, the maid accidentally touched it, Xie Yi trembled in pain, the maid immediately knelt down to plead guilty, she was about to say that it was all right, when the maid who served her personally came in quickly from outside the house, took over the medicine, While scolding the maidservant, he said: "When the lord was in the palace, His Majesty personally dispensed the medicine for the lord, and he never hurt the lord. Are you more honorable than your majesty? Serving the lord is so unsatisfactory!"

Xie Yi was in a trance, hearing that the servant girl was even more frightened, pleading guilty again and again, then she came back to her senses and said: "It's okay, go down."

After changing the medicine, all the maids in the room retreated.Xie Yi likes to be quiet and doesn't like to be served by others, so she is always alone in her room, and the servants and servants are waiting outside the door.

She got up and took out the official documents to read, and after a few hours, it was almost dawn outside the window, and she finally read all the hills of slips and slips.She stood up, intending to rest on the couch for a while, but as soon as she lay down, the back of His Majesty who fled that day appeared repeatedly in front of her eyes.

Xie Yi lay peacefully with an indifferent expression, as if she had never worried or felt sorry for her.

Liang Ji was defeated again and again, and the Empress Dowager finally couldn't sit still, and invited Xie Yi to Changle Palace for a visit.Xie Yi didn't want to bother, but after seeing the Queen Mother's handwriting, she decided to meet her.

The queen mother expected that she would come, so she waited for her outside Changxin hall early.

As soon as Xie Yi arrived, he saluted as usual, and the two went to the hall.There are no palace people in the palace, so it is convenient for two people to talk.

At this time, any small talk was superfluous, so the Empress Dowager cut to the chase, looked at Xie Yi, and sighed: "It's been 17 years since the incident, the Prime Minister is extremely respectable, wealth and power are at your fingertips, even replacing the Liu family may not be impossible. Who would have thought that a prime minister with such authority would want to vindicate the empress Wei and the crown prince."

The world is changing, and everyone is for himself.The Empress Dowager really did not expect that after so many years, and after experiencing the ups and downs of Emperor Zhao Dynasty, what Xie Yi was thinking about was not power, not power, but returning the favor of the Empress Dowager Wei back then.

If she knew, she would never make Liu Zao the emperor.

Xie Yi sat upright on the couch without saying a word.

The Empress Dowager also knew that these words would not provoke Xie Xiang's reaction, so she smiled, turned around, and asked: "So, what is it like to be coveted by a child held in the palm of your hand, Xie Xiang can taste it?"

Xie Yi turned her head, her eyes were deep and cold, and the Empress Dowager felt a chill in her heart.But what is she afraid of, anyway, she has already fought her last battle.

"As soon as you answer me, I will tell you why the little emperor thinks so much about you."

Xie Yi said, "Say."

"I want you to protect my Liang family."

Xie Yi got up and left.

Unexpectedly, the queen mother was unwilling to say a word, she was in a hurry, took another step back, and said anxiously: "Leave at least one bloodline!"

Xie Yi stopped walking and agreed.

The Queen Mother's chest heaved and she glared at Xie Yi full of hatred, but in an instant, she smiled again, with resentment written all over her face, and she raised her voice, "Come."

As soon as the words fell, there were small footsteps in the inner hall.

Xie Yi turned her head and saw a palace lady walking out of the inner room. The palace lady was wearing a green gauze dress, stopped in front of her, and saluted timidly.Xie Yi's eyes fell on her face, and finally his indifferent eyes fluctuated.

This Gong'e is very similar to her, except for the difference in temperament, from a distance, the facial features and appearance are almost the same person.

The queen mother smiled and said: "Her name is Luzhu, and I found it with great difficulty. That night, I asked her to greet His Majesty. She was delicate and timid, and she was charming. She walked in front of the emperor once, and the emperor came back for the first time the next day." In my palace, I told her, if you join hands with me and defeat the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister will be yours, and you can pull it on the dragon bed to play with it, or put it in prison and give it to death, it’s all within your grasp.”

She watched Xie Yi's expression, and tried every means to provoke her: "I wanted to give this maid as a gift to her, but unfortunately she refused to take it. In her heart, the only way to satisfy her greed is to get Mr. Xie Xiang. In the past few days, you We haven't met each other before, but that little greedy cat couldn't bear to be impatient and offended Prime Minister Xie?"

Xie Yi didn't seem to hear her words, she just looked at the green bamboo, wondering what was going on in her mind.

Seeing her unmoving appearance, the Empress Dowager was even more furious, and she wanted to say something more, so she heard Xie Yi say: "Did you seduce her on purpose?"

The queen mother smiled and said: "If she doesn't mean it, what's the use of me seducing it? If she doesn't mean it, how can she think of you when she sees the green bamboo? Her heart has already moved, and I'm just adding a gust of wind. Xie Xiang must be careful." , if you lose your power, the little emperor will have no scruples, and I'm afraid you will mess up."

Liu Zao was shocked when he heard that Xie Xiang had entered Changle Palace.Changle Palace Guard has been in the hands of the Empress Dowager, she would not dare to go there normally.How could Xie Xiang go suddenly?

She was worried, fearing that Prime Minister Xie would be detained by the Queen Mother, she didn't care about anything else, hurriedly assembled the palace guards, and went to Changle Palace.

She hadn't recovered from the cold, her complexion was very bad, and she was anxious, her steps were fast, a layer of sweat began to ooze from her forehead, but she didn't notice it at all, she put her hand on the hilt of her sword and walked forward quickly.

She walked all the way without encountering any obstacles from the palace guards, so it was strange that she walked faster.

When Xie Yi came out of Changxin Hall, Liu Zao stopped abruptly. When he saw her, his heart ached reflexively. Even if she didn't say anything, just seeing her made Liu Zao Depressed and uncomfortable.

In front of Xie Yi, she seemed to be a bit shorter, as humble as loess, she didn't dare to look at her, let alone get too close to her.She took a step back, and caught a glimpse of the hundreds of armored soldiers on the palace road not far away. The armored soldiers stood holding their halberds, their armor glowing coldly.Liu Zao has seen them all, and they are all from Xiangxie.

She suddenly felt that she was ridiculous, and came in such a hurry, she never thought about how Xie Xiang's city would put herself in danger.

Liu Zao couldn't move forward or retreat, she glanced at Xie Yi, who happened to be looking at her too.Liu Zao hurriedly looked away, feeling pained and flustered, as if he didn't even know where to put his hands and feet.

Xie Yi walked over, Liu Zao forcibly resisted the urge to run away, a little happy, a little expectant, and a little flustered, not knowing why Prime Minister Xie came here, and what she would say to her when she came here.

She held her breath, she didn't even dare to look at Xie Yi, she just straightened her ears, listening to Xie Yi's footsteps, she gradually approached.

She was approaching, and when she was in front of her, Liu Zao pursed her lips, and finally mustered up the courage to meet Xie Yi's eyes, and then, she saw Xie Yi walking past her without stopping for a moment.Liu Zao opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.She gradually lowered her head, listening to Xie Yi's steps getting further and further away.
