"Check! Check it for me!" Emperor Wei Chang picked up the tea cup and smashed it down hard. He immediately fell to his knees and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down."
Emperor Wei Chang's chest kept rising and falling, and he was out of breath. The eunuch immediately stepped forward and gave him a pill, held his chest, and kept unclogging it. After a long time, Emperor Wei Chang slowed down.
He looked at the ministers and his son who were kneeling together, his eyes darkened, "Someone dared to surround and kill the prince today, and surely someone will dare to assassinate me tomorrow!"
The ministers kowtowed again, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I don't dare to do this."
The sixth prince immediately knelt forward and said with worry written all over his face, "Father, please don't be angry. You are the emperor, and your body is the most important."
Seeing his youngest son caring so much about him, Emperor Wei Chang felt a little relieved.
He looked at the prince who was still coughing. After all, he was the son he had raised since childhood, and he felt a little more pity in his heart. He said softly, "The prince has suffered, and my father will give you an explanation for this."
The prince shook his head, "Ahem... Jialing's body... is like this. Father, you must take good care of yourself."
Emperor Wei Chang said, "As long as I am here, no one dares to touch you."
He glanced around and said in a cold tone: "Bo Rong, I leave this matter to you. Investigate it carefully and give me an explanation."
King Kang responded, "Yes."
King Kang was actually asked to investigate. The third prince and the eldest prince looked at each other. They had to get rid of the ones who deserved to be swept away as soon as possible. King Kang had always been upright and only obeyed the orders of the sage. If he was really allowed to find out anything, given the wrath of the sage today, I am afraid that
It won't get better.
The third prince looked at Kang Yanning again, seeing that she had ruined his good deeds again. There was a mixture of love and hate in his eyes. If he couldn't take her down... no one in the Kang family could be kept!
Inside the Prince's Mansion.
The imperial doctor carefully picked up the small porcelain bottle, smelled it, then stretched out his hand to shake it off, picked up a small brown pill, put it in his mouth and tasted it, his eyes lit up.
"This is indeed a tribute medicine from the Wang family, the imperial physician of the previous dynasty. The emperor of the previous dynasty had always had a cough, and he relied on this medicine to cure his illness for several years. However, after the fall of the previous dynasty, the whereabouts of the imperial physician Wang were unknown. First of all,
The emperor also searched for it, but the doctor Wang must have concealed his name and could not find it."
Huo Hua was very excited on the side. Huo Yan was more stable than him and gave him a hand, "Listen to the doctor first."
The imperial doctor nodded, "I can indeed taste a few flavors of medicine, but the proportions... need to be carefully considered."
The prince took out the paper from under the small porcelain bottle and handed it to the imperial doctor, "This should be the proportion. You should adjust it according to this first."
The imperial doctor took the paper and browsed it quickly. The more he read, the more amazing he felt. "Yes... it's this!" He couldn't hide his surprise. "Where did His Royal Highness get it from? Can you still find the Wang family? The Wang family has extraordinary medical skills. Today,
There are few people in the world who can compare with him, so I would like to learn from him."
The prince shook his head, "This was given to me by a friend of mine. I think I got it by chance."
The imperial doctor was a little pity, but today's harvest was not small. He immediately said goodbye, "The prince needs to take medicine on time. I will prepare a few bottles according to this recipe. If there is no problem, you can take it."
The prince nodded, and the doctor took his leave.
After the imperial doctor left, Huo Hua asked, "Is the medicine sent by Princess Kang really so effective? It only takes a few years to be cured?"
The prince said, "I don't know either, but since the imperial doctor said so, let's try it."
Huo Hua was happy from the bottom of his heart, "This Princess Kang is a good person. If she really cures the prince's stubborn illness, it will be a great achievement."
Huo Qian had been doing the prince's bidding some time ago, but was recalled yesterday. This was the first time he heard Kang Yanning's name. Seeing that Huo Hua, who was very wary of outsiders, spoke so highly of her, he must have...
He looked at the prince, and sure enough he saw his highness looking at the small porcelain vase, with gentle eyebrows and a smile.
He coughed lightly, "It seems that a lot of things happened during the days when I was away."
"That's natural. During your absence..." Huo Hua took Huo Qian and talked about recent events in detail.
The prince picked up the small porcelain vase again and looked at it carefully. His expression became gentler. He put the small porcelain vase into his arms and unconsciously curled his lips.
After the winter hunting is over, the Chinese New Year is about to begin.
Now, Yanyu Building, like many shops, is decorated with red lanterns and pasted with couplets, giving it a Chinese New Year atmosphere.
Kang Yanning looked at Huai Li who was busy coming and going, and felt that she was more energetic now than when they first met.
Kang Yanning poured her a cup of tea and called softly, "Stop working. It will be New Year's Eve in two days. I have to go to the palace for a banquet. I will take you to meet your brother."
Huai Li was stunned for a moment and couldn't believe it. "Is it okay? Will it bring you trouble?"
Kang Yanning shook her head, "It's okay, there are few people on New Year's Eve."
Huaili was also a little excited when he heard this, and bowed deeply, "Thank you, Princess."
The banquet on New Year's Eve is not as complicated and eventful as before. It is just a day for important courtiers in Kyoto and their families to communicate with the royal family.
Emperor Wei Chang didn't say much. He said a few words of encouragement for the coming year and then started the banquet.
Kang Yanning was thinking about taking Huaili to see her brother, but she didn't do much.
In the middle of the banquet, a little maid approached Kang Yanning and gave her some hangover tea. Kang Yanning understood. She said hello to her brother and left with Huali, who was dressed as a maid.
On New Year's Eve, all the imperial doctors also took a break and went home, leaving only two imperial doctors who were attending clinics. One was at the banquet, just in case these royal relatives drank too much and had any accidents.
One of them is on duty at the Imperial Hospital to prevent emergencies in the harem.
Coincidentally, Xu Jieyu, the biological mother of the second princess, was not the head of the first palace and was not qualified to participate in this feast. She and the biological mother of the second princess agreed to call the imperial doctor from Tai Hospital to drag out a stick of incense.
time.
As the second princess's companion, Kang Yanning was familiar with the road to the Imperial Hospital. She led Huaili, who followed her with his head lowered, and said, "Go straight down and you will find your brother's house. Remember, you only have a quarter of an hour."
I can’t leave the banquet for too long, just come back to the banquet and find me later.”
Huaili nodded, Kang Yanning watched her go in, then turned around and left.
"Princess." A voice suddenly called her from behind.
Kang Yanning turned around and saw that it was the third prince. She didn't know when the third prince was here, or whether she had seen Huai Li. She calmed down and asked preemptively, "Why is the third prince here?"
The third prince looked at her bright face and felt a little itchy in his heart. He took a step closer and said with a smile, "I just came out to sober up. When I turned around, I saw you. Why did you come out?"
The third prince was very close, and the alcohol-smelling breath he exhaled made Kang Yanning gag. She resisted her urge to slap him and took a step back.
"Yan Ning also came out to get some air. It's windy outside, so the Third Prince should go back."
The third prince was overjoyed when he heard this. Was Kang Yanning caring about him? He knew that this woman's family was very thin-skinned, so she must be interested in him but couldn't tell her directly.
He took another step after him, lifted up Kang Yanning's hair and sniffed it, "What kind of hair oil did Yanning use? It always smells so good."
Kang Yanning couldn't bear it anymore. Why was it so disgusting? When she thought about what she loved so much in her previous life, she wanted to stab her eyes and drink poison.
Before Kang Yanning could make a move, another voice from the side intervened, "I wonder why the Third Emperor's brother didn't dance well at the banquet. It turns out he was hiding here to bully the little girl."
Kang Yanning raised her eyebrows and felt much relieved when she heard this voice.
She teased, "My place is really lively. In the past, it was rare to see big people like you gather together. How come it seems so easy to do it here?"
I saw the prince walking out of the shadows.
The third prince's face darkened as soon as he saw him. Since the winter hunting siege, the two of them had been at odds with each other, but others didn't know it, and both of them only maintained a superficial peace.
Due to the presence of the third person, Kang Yanning, the third prince had no choice but to salute with Kang Yanning, and the prince shouted without much embarrassment.
He turned to look at the third prince and chuckled, "I'm also curious. If the emperor's brother doesn't shine at the banquet, why is he doing it in this remote place?"
The third prince seemed not to have heard the prince's words, holding a gun and a stick, and replied, "After drinking some wine, I went out for a walk." He whispered to Kang Yanning, "I'm going back to the banquet. You can go back with me."
Even if he lowered his posture and called me, Kang Yanning still wanted to stay away from him. She quickly said, "Yanning still needs to calm down, the third prince will go back to the banquet first."
The third prince glanced at her unwillingly, but Kang Yanning seemed not to notice. The third prince had no choice but to take a step ahead and left without obeying the courtesy.
When the third prince walked away, Kang Yanning tilted his head and asked first, "His Royal Highness comes by such a coincidence every time. Have you settled down with me?"
The prince was startled and chuckled. He seemed to be very satisfied with her direct way of asking questions, but he still said seriously, "I haven't comforted you, but I have sent someone to follow you. As long as you are in trouble, I will be there for you."
I knew it all at once.”
Kang Yanning suppressed the throbbing in her heart and asked, "Then why didn't your people warn you during the winter hunt?"
"I was negligent during the winter hunt. I originally wanted to stay close, but you were under my personal care, but you were alert, so you asked them to withdraw first."
Seeing him looking at her, Kang Yanning pretended to be fierce and bared her teeth, gesturing for her to continue.
It's so cute. The prince's smile became even deeper.
He added, "But I think the third prince seems to be interested in you. I have to keep an eye on him again."
What he said! Kang Yanning's face turned red, but she pretended to be calm and then asked fiercely, "Why are you staring at me?"
The prince took a step forward, and he seemed to understand why his brother, who had an eye over his head, started teasing this girl just now. It was because the woman he admired had irresistible magical power. He also saw this scene, and he couldn't bear it anymore.
If it doesn't work, come out and stop it.
The prince was very excited, but the only sound in Kang Yanning's ears was the violent beating of his own heart, which was not at all like the pretentious disgust and revulsion the third prince showed just now.
The prince stretched out his hand and pressed her against the tree. Kang Yanning felt a soft feeling behind her. She looked sideways and found that it was the prince who put his hand behind her to prevent her from leaning directly against the tree.
The prince's voice was low and he leaned into her ear, "I thought you knew that I like you."
