209 cold poison
"Emperor, Queen Yun Xi, is the only woman you have ever loved?" Murong Yue suddenly asked. Looking at the deep affection on Emperor Beichen's face that moved the sky, she could not believe that such a man would do something that made love hate.
In the past, Murong Yue did not have much contact with Beichen Emperor, but had only seen him from a distance several times. Since he got engaged with Beichen Star, he had more contact with Beichen Emperor.
The Beichen Emperor also regarded himself as his daughter-in-law. In front of him, he was more like a loving elder than a majestic emperor, and never concealed his deep affection for his late queen in front of him.
No matter how stupid Murong Yue is, she would not think that there is something worthy of Beichen Emperor pretending to be a good husband and a good man in front of him. As an emperor, he naturally has his own pride. This is because he regards himself as a family member, not a people.
"Yue'er, why did you ask like this?" A hint of displeasure flashed in Beichen Emperor's eyes, but he endured it without getting angry.
"Emperor, although Yue'er has never seen Empress Yun Xi, she grew up listening to her stories and naturally admired her. Seeing that the emperor loved Empress Yun Xi so much, she would of course be curious why there would be other concubines after the emperor had a legendary woman like her!" Murong Yue blinked her bright big eyes and said innocently.
"Yue'er, you're still young. You may not understand some things even if you tell them!" Beichen Emperor shook his head helplessly when he saw Murong Yue's appearance. He really liked Murong Yue, and chatting with her can always touch some of the deepest feelings in his heart.
It is precisely because of this that when Murong Yue asked what he said before, which was absolutely unforgivable, that he rarely suppressed his anger.
Murong Yue looked at the helpless and apologetic look of Beichen Emperor, and his suspicion for him was reduced a lot again. He slowly spoke: "How could Yue'er not know? The emperor favored a woman not because he loved each other, but to balance the situation in the court. Prince, are you saying Yue'er right?"
The women in the harem were so unfortunate that they fought for favor and love for life, but in the end, they were just for a man who did not love themselves. They wanted to leave the emperor by their side and into their own body, but they could not see through it. What the emperor wanted was not only his own body, but also the help he could bring to him.
Just like the most beloved concubine of Yongzheng in history, Nian Gengyao's sister Nian Concubine, when Nian Gengyao was incredible, she was also unparalleled in the palace, and once Nian Gengyao fell, she would not get the best...
Women in the palace are often just political pawns! How many people can truly get the true love of the emperor?
Beichen Emperor paused his hand holding the chess piece, and a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes. He looked at Murong Yue, and his face changed with a changeable expression. A trace of murderous intent flashed across his eyes. Finally, it disappeared in his eyes. His words were a little warned: "Yue'er, you are not allowed to say this next time!"
Beichen Emperor never expected that Murong Yue, who was only thirteen years old, could see such a deep side, and was terrifyingly intelligent.
Indeed, the only woman he loved in his life was Yun Xi, with many concubines in the palace, but there were only four concubines. Hui Concubine Hui was the daughter of Wen Xiang, and Li Concubine Gu Qingyun, the Minister of Personnel. These two concubines were used to balance the situation in the court. Shu Concubine was Yun Xi's maid. As for Concubine De... there were some important reasons why he was granted the title of concubine.
"Of course Yue'er understands it! That's why he told the emperor when there is no one!" Murong Yue made a playful face, then landed the white chess in her hand somewhere, squinted her eyes proudly, and said, "Your Majesty, you are not attentive, I have eaten another piece of chess piece!"
As he said that, Murong Yue quickly cleaned up the black chess that he had killed in seconds in Beichen Emperor, and asked cautiously, "Why wouldn't the emperor want to know what kind of attitude does the emperor have towards his aunt?"
Looking at Murong Yue's pretending to be cautious, Emperor Beichen couldn't help laughing: "Stop pretending! Look at your little virtue."
"The emperor just tells Yue'er! Yue'er will never complain to your aunt!" Murong Yue raised her left hand, pointed it on her lips, and looked like a booing voice.
"Concubine De is a good concubine. She has taken care of the harem for me very well! I admire her very much!" Emperor Beichen knew that if she did not answer Murong Yue's question, she would definitely not let her go easily. She then thought about the words and spoke.
"That's it! Yue'er thanked the emperor first, but Yue'er dared to say that it must be very easy for the emperor to have a concubine who can manage the harem. The emperor might as well pay more attention. Don't let Yue'er's aunt get tired, that's not good!" Murong Yue dropped the last chess piece in his hand, stretched his waist lazily, and said, "Your Majesty, you lost again. It seems that your chess skills have not improved during this period! Next time, you will have Yue'er playing chess with you, but you have to press some chips!"
The emperor threw the last piece in his hand casually, leaned gracefully on the back of the chair, looked at Murong Yue's instantly lazy look with amusement, and said, "It is obvious that you have been talking to me, which has disturbed my thoughts and won not be glorious enough. You dare to come and bury me. If you want chips, is it not good enough that the gold medal I gave you? If so, I will give you back to me, and I will reward you with tens of thousands of taels of silver?"
What Murong Yue said made Beichen Emperor a little surprised. Could it be that Concubine De had something wrong? Why did Yue'er say such things that were not good for Concubine De? It would be fine if it was other concubines, but Concubine De. If Yue'er had a rift with her, she would be afraid.
"Yue'er is not that stupid! He exchanged the imperial gold medal for silver! He walked around with a piece of imperial gold medal, so majestic! He was so desperate, it wouldn't be too late to use it as a silver!" Murong Yue said pretending to be calculating.
"Use my imperial gold medal for silver. You girl clearly don't want your head and don't harm the pawnshop boss!" Beichen Emperor laughed and scolded when he saw Murong Yue's fox-like appearance.
"Yue'er doesn't care. If you are hungry, who cares who gives the gold medal? But if you don't care about the food, Yue'er will be hungry!" Murong Yue rubbed her stomach and said pitifully. After the game of chess with the emperor, it was already noon. Murong Yue, who was just eating casually, was naturally hungry.
Seeing this, Emperor Beichen called Li Dequan and asked him to order the kitchen to start feeding food. Then he said to Murong Yue, who was leaning on the chair and sitting without a look, "Looking at your appearance, can't you raise you in the prime minister's mansion? You actually make you hungry? If so, I will turn around and say to Murong Aiqing, let him marry you to Prince Chen's mansion as soon as possible and let Xing'er raise you! Yue'er rest assured, being my daughter-in-law, you will definitely not be hungry!"
What a sensitive person in Beichen Emperor, he naturally felt that Murong Yue was different from when he came in just now. His almost imperceptible defense against him had disappeared. He knew that the problem caused by the assassin yesterday had been solved. As for whether the female assassin was caught, it was no longer important. I believe that Yi Yue'er's intelligence can be handled well. Why should he care about it? He immediately joked about Murong Yue in a good mood.
Murong Yue looked at Beichen Emperor with a hurried tongue. She naturally understood why Beichen Emperor was so relaxed and comfortable at this moment!
But...it's just this topic... why did it turn to that guy Beichenxing again!
Murong Yue felt a little bit of a sudden appearance when Xinghuo wanted to be dying this morning. These bastards were so arrogant! Even their master Bei Chenxing hadn't said anything yet. What qualifications does Xinghuo have to show his face?
But... Looking at the Xinghuo was not such a person who was so confused about right and wrong in the past, could there be any hidden truth in this?
Murong Yue felt a little bad in her heart. Last night, Bei Chenxing's pale face and shaky body in her room appeared in her mind again, making her heart vaguely pull.
"What's wrong? Could it be that Yue'er is really eager to get married?" Beichen Emperor was amused when he saw Murong Yue distracted, but continued to joke on his face.
"No, the emperor is not allowed to go to my father's place to talk nonsense! Be careful that Yue'er will not come to play chess with you in the future!" Murong Yue plastered her red lips slightly, and her face slightly freckled and threatened Emperor Beichen.
"Oh! This threat is so serious. I am really threatened by you! Okay! As long as you often come to play chess with me in the future, I will not ask Murong Aiqing to marry you and Xing'er in advance!" Beichen Emperor's eyes flashed with a brilliant light, and he said with a scheming attitude.
"Your Majesty, it seems you are threatening me!" Murong Yue said with some frustration. It is worthy of being the father of Beichenxing, who is also a fox! It seems that he really has to go to the palace to play chess with Beichen Emperor in the future, otherwise the old fox will be intrigued and issued an order to marry Beichenxing, and that matter will be a big deal!
"It depends on your decision, you can also threaten me!" Beichen Emperor looked at Murong Yue's frustrated look in a good mood, and was very happy that he could catch the little fox's painful foot.
Not bad! It’s good if you can’t catch your son to accompany you, it’s good if you catch his fiancée!
With Yue'er, are you still afraid that Xing'er won't come?
"Who dares to threaten the emperor? Yue'er is just a minister. How dare you violate the emperor's will? Even if you are unwilling to do so, you can only obey the emperor's imperial order!" Murong Yue said as if she was aggrieved. This made Emperor Beichen laugh.
At this time, Li Dequan led a group of palace maids from the imperial kitchen to bring lunch. After Murong Yue accompanied Beichen Emperor with his thoughts, he hurried out of the palace and rushed to the palace where Beichenxing was.
"Are you prince here?" After Murong Yue came to Prince Chen's mansion, he asked Yunhe, the butler of Prince Chen's mansion who was greeted.
Yunhe shook his head, bowed to Murong Yue and said, "Miss Murong, our prince has not come back since he left the door early yesterday morning!"
Yun He also looked at Murong Yue strangely. The prince went out of the mansion yesterday and obviously went to Murong Mansion. Why did Miss Murong come to the mansion to find the prince today? Did the prince leave Murong Mansion yesterday and go somewhere else?
"Then do you know where your prince goes when he goes out on weekdays?" Murong Yue frowned and asked Yunhe.
Yunhe shook his head and replied to Murong Yue: "On weekdays, the prince rarely returns to the palace, and the servants don't know where he went?"
Yunhe is telling the truth. Although the Chen Palace is the residence of King Chen, King Chen rarely stays in his palace all year round. It is common for him to stay in the palace for ten days and half a month on weekdays. The servants in the Chen Palace are no longer surprised!
"Damn it!" The uneasiness in my heart widened. Murong Yue looked at Yunhe with some annoyance and asked, "Then how do you contact him when you want to find your prince on weekdays."
Yunhe shook his head helplessly again and said, "We never need to look for the prince. As long as there is something wrong, the prince will automatically appear in the prince's mansion."
To be honest, Yunhe also admires King Chen's predestiny for his elusiveness. Now Murong Yue cares about him asking for someone, but he is powerless.
"Miss Murong, if the prince knows that you are looking for him, he will definitely appear as soon as possible. Please wait for him. I believe that after the prince gets the news, he will go to find you!" Yun He said in his heart. Now no one in the capital knows. Miss Murong is the treasure in the palm of His Highness Chen, and his heart is in his heart. He knows that Miss Murong will appear happily in front of Miss Murong when she is looking for him.
"Since that's the case, I'll go back first!" Murong Yue nodded, and she naturally felt that Yunhe was not lying to herself.
However, she had a bad breakup last night with Beichenxing. She was not sure whether the guy came to him or did he deliberately avoid him after knowing that he was looking for him! If he deliberately avoided him, with his foundation in the capital, he would really not be able to find him.
It seems that I can only wait until Xinghuo comes to train him tomorrow before asking him!
Murong Yue left Prince Chen's Mansion helplessly and walked towards Murong's Mansion in frustration.
In the Tianji Pavilion, Xing Shang looked at King Chen lying on the white jade bed with a heavy face, and advised again: "Master, you should go back to the snow mountain as soon as possible! The weather is getting colder and colder, and your body can't bear it!"
At this time in previous years, my master had been away from the cold in the Fire Lotus Cave in the Snow Mountains, but this year, he refused to go back to the Snow Mountains. No matter how he persuaded him, he insisted on waiting for the Mid-Autumn Festival before leaving.
Xingshang watched King Chen get sick last night and is still lying on the white jade bed made of Wen Yu, so how could he not be anxious?
"No...use... cough cough... I'm fine!" On the white jade bed, King Chen's face was as pale as paper. He started to speak and then coughed again. Seeing this, Xingmu on the side hurriedly brought a cup of tea made from the fire lotus leaves to feed him. He felt that King Chen's body was not warm at all, and he was also extremely worried.
"Master, my subordinate thinks the boss is right. The cold poison in your body is no longer something that Fire Lotus Tea can suppress!"
People in the world think that the spark and star wood that never stand beside King Chen is holding the world-famous Tianji Tea, but how many people know that the purple clay tea in their hands is the Yin-Yang thermal pot caused by Xingtu's painstaking efforts. Half of it is filled with the dew used to make Tianji Tea, and the other half is the Fire Lotus Tea, which is hard to find.
This fire lotus is a strange thing in the world, and it is rare to see it in the world. King Chen’s master Gui Guzi only found five fire lotus in a cave in a canyon on the top of the snow mountain after three years of running around. From then on, he lived in the snow mountain for a long time. He only carefully protected the five fire lotus leaves, collected fire lotus leaves every year, made fire lotus tea for King Chen, suppressing the cold poison in his body, and allowing him to survive to this day.
After nearly ten years of fire lotus tea treatment, King Chen's cold poison has been completely suppressed. Just wait for another two years to make Guiguzi with the medicinal materials of the Whole Fire Lotus Pill to refine it into the Fire Lotus Pill and take it. It can remove all the cold poison in his body and will no longer be affected by the erosion of the cold poison.
However, King Chen, who was already the same as ordinary people, came back like this after talking to Murong Yue last night. Even the cold poison was still showing signs of becoming more active. How could this not make them and their subordinates anxious and became more anxious at this time, King Chen refused to go back to the Fire Lotus Cave in the Snow Mountain to recuperate in order to suppress the spread of the cold poison in their bodies.
King Chen is like this, but he is joking about his own wealth and life!
"No, my body, cough cough... I know that it's okay for now!" Chen Wang, who drank a cup of fire lotus tea, recovered a little bit and said.
Then, King Chen raised his head and looked at the sky, looked around again, and asked, "When is it now? Cough cough... Where is the spark?"
Since he returned to Tianji Pavilion last night, he had only had time to quickly explain that Xinghuo was not allowed to reveal his condition when he went to Murong Yue to train this morning, and he fell into a coma and did not wake up until now. Naturally, he still didn't know whether Xinghuo had done it according to his requirements.
"Xinghuo is outside, so I'll call him in." Xingmu naturally knew the concern in King Chen's heart, so he quickly turned around and called Xinghuo in.
"Yue'er is okay? Cough cough... Are you still angry with me? Cough cough cough..." King Chen felt anxious and coughed violently again. His charming face was almost transparent, as if covered with a layer of frost, and his whole body was as cold as ice.
"Master, you are like this, and you are still thinking about Murong Yue. If it weren't for her, how could you..." Xinghuo looked at King Chen's sick and painful look with a little anger.
"Shut up!" King Chen suddenly looked up at Xinghuo when he heard this. His peerless posture, which was originally red from the cough, was full of anger: "Who is the one you call Yue'er like this? Cough cough! My body... I know... I'm not resentful to Yue'er this time. Cough cough, if I hear half of words slander Yue'er from your mouth, cough cough, you should never appear in front of me again..." After saying this in one breath, King Chen leaned on the pillow panting, his weak appearance did not diminish his charm. His face with an abnormal red tide seemed to be made of an unparalleled glass carving.
"Yes!" Xinghuo heard King Chen's angry words, and knelt down on the ground with a "thump", lowered his head, and did not dare to be disrespectful. He was not allowed to appear in front of King Chen. He naturally understood the meaning of it, which was to remove himself from the secret of heaven. 13acv.
If so, he would rather commit suicide in the Tianji Pavilion before King Chen gave the punishment. In this way, although he could not be a Tianji person, at least he would still be a Tianji ghost if he died.
Xingshang and Xingmu on the side did not dare to plead with mercy when they saw King Chen's angry look. King Chen has always treated them as friendly as brothers, but this does not mean that they can disobey King Chen. On the contrary, their inner respect and loyalty to King Chen are more true and deeper than anyone else. As long as King Chen says, they will be very honored even if they die.
After seeing King Chen's appearance at this moment, Xingshang remembered the warning that King Chen had given him last night. If it weren't for being outside the Lanyue Garden at that time, King Chen was afraid that Miss Murong would have alarmed him, but with the murderous intent he exuded at that time, King Chen would not have let him go so easily!
Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on Xing Shang's back, soaking his back. He looked at King Chen with some nervousness, and once again confirmed Murong Yue's unparalleled status in King Chen's heart. He no longer dared to be disrespectful to Murong Yue.
"Answer my question!" King Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, no longer looked at Xinghuo, but just said lightly.
Before going to the girl, "Miss Murong's face was a little pale this morning, as if she had not been sleeping all night, but when training, she was very hard-working, but..." Xinghuo said this, looking up at King Chen, seeing him frowning slightly, he hurriedly continued: "It's just that although Miss Murong trained herself with extra harshness, she seemed to have something to worry about and made mistakes repeatedly. My subordinates repeatedly reminded her, but it didn't work."
"Is there something wrong with you?" King Chen frowned. Thinking of Murong Yue's unwillingness to answer her questions last night, she became awkward with her and was unhappy. She could only shake her head helplessly. With Murong Yue's temperament, if she refused to say it, even if she asked her, she would be useless.
"Ahem, what else did she say?" King Chen asked again. He woke up and said for so long that his mind was a little confused. He knew that the fire lotus tea had an effect in his body, but the price of the effect was that he would fall into a coma again until the effect of the fire lotus medicine completely suppressed the cold poison.
"Miss Murong also asked his subordinate's body, and asked him if he had any discomfort in his body. Judging from his expression, he was very worried about his subordinate. Master, is he..." Xinghuo naturally did not dare to hide anything anymore and said everything Murong Yue said this morning to King Chen.
However, when King Chen heard Murong Yue worry about her, his pale and blood-colored lips curled up slightly, and he breathed a sigh of relief: She did not ignore herself because she was angry, she was still caring for herself...
Thinking of this, King Chen was sensible and fell into a deep sleep due to the power of medicine...
