Chapter 44 The Emperor's Scheming

Ding Yi and Nong Zhu took away the meal, and Xu Mubai hurried in, his handsome eyebrows locked together tightly.

As soon as he entered the room, he asked: "Uncle Master, what did you do to Eunuch Jiang?"

Zhu Ying showed a sinister smile and said, "He came to find you?"

"Can he still come?" Xu Mubai asked back. That's the only bad thing about my junior uncle. He dares to offend anyone. "You don't know what happened to Eunuch Jiang?"

Zhu Ying smiled like a fox, and Zhao Yu couldn't help but frown.

"What trouble did you get into again?"

Xu Mubai said worriedly: "Someone came to the palace today and delivered the emperor's oral instructions, asking me to go into the palace immediately to treat Eunuch Jiang. It was said that Eunuch Jiang was extremely itchy when he returned to the palace, and the doctors in the palace were helpless.

"

Zhao Yu looked at Zhu Ying and asked, "Did you attack him?"

Zhu Ying raised her chin and said displeasedly: "If it weren't for him, you wouldn't be so dangerous. I just punished him a little."

Zhao Yu felt warm in her heart after hearing this, and stretched out her hand to hold the pair of catkins. Her hands were as soft as boneless but there were calluses between the tiger's mouth and index finger, probably because of the frequent use of knives.

Xu Mubai was not as leisurely as the two of them, but he was in a hurry.

"What should I do now? I will follow you into the palace soon?"

It doesn't matter if he loses his head, but he can't involve the Xu family and their ancestral property.

Zhu Ying gave him a reassuring look, and Nongzhu said: "Just bathe with mulberry leaves for seven days."

"Is it that simple? People in the palace have told me that after my father-in-law got this weird itching, he scratched his body until blood came out." Xu Mubai looked at Nongzhu in disbelief. This prescription was too childish.

Zhu Ying pouted and said, "If you don't believe it, don't use it."

Xu Mubai immediately stopped talking. Since the junior uncle has said so, the method must be correct.

He then faced Zhao Yu and said: "Master Su wants me to inform the prince that the people in the palace will not leave until they see the prince. He has held the people in the palace now but not for long. He needs the prince to make plans in advance.

"

Zhao Yu sneered and his eyes became sharp. He tightened his palms, and Zhu Ying immediately understood and said, "What do you want me to do?"

"The memorial I asked Master Su mentioned: I have been poisoned by a strange poison. Although my life is not in danger, my body is still unable to move and I am unable to return to Bian City for the time being."

"This is easy to handle." Zhu Ying said confidently, "Lie down on the bed."

Zhao Yu did as he was told, and Zhu Ying took out a medicine box, opened the lid and found black ointment inside. She took out a long and thin silver needle, dipped it in the ointment, and then handed the silver needle to Xu Mubai. Zhu Ying thought

I asked Zhao Yu again what he wanted.

"Do you want the whole body to be immobile or only half of the body to be immobile?"

Zhao Yu asked: "Do you have a way to make me immobile?"

Zhu Ying got close to Zhao Yu's face and said proudly: "What's so difficult about that! I can guarantee that no one can tell that you are faking it."

Zhao Yu stretched out his index finger and tapped her forehead, saying: "Then let me see what your methods are."

Zhu Ying said to Xu Mubai: "Puncture his waist at Yangguan, seven vertebrae and Huiyang three points, just seven points."

Zhu Ying reminded Zhao Yu again: "The three Yang points will be a little sore!"

Zhao Yunuan smiled heartily and reached out to grab her little hand.

Zhu Ying wanted to dodge but couldn't break free from his grasp for a long time, so she had to let him go and turned her back.

Zhao Yu said jokingly: "Have you not seen it all before? Now you are getting serious."

Zhu Ying blushed and said angrily: "You are a prince, why don't you act upright?"

Zhao Yu rubbed her thumb with his thumb and asked with a chuckle: "Have you ever been my king or a prince?"

"Yes, you are not the prince, you are my patient!"

While the two were chatting and joking, Xu Mubai took off Zhao Yu's clothes, found the acupuncture point and stabbed it. Zhao Yu's hand tightened.

Zhu Ying held his hand and asked softly: "Does it hurt?"

"It's just a mosquito bite!" Zhao Yu said through gritted teeth, pretending to be relaxed. In fact, it wasn't pain but soreness. The feeling was more uncomfortable than the pain.

Zhu Ying knew that he didn't want her to worry, and she knew exactly how he felt at the moment.

“It’ll be fine soon!”

After about half a cup of tea, Zhu Ying asked Xu Mubai to withdraw the injection.

Xu Mubai helped Zhao Yu tidy up his clothes. Zhu Ying said with a distressed look on her face: "Remember not to use this method more than once."

Zhao Yu patted the back of her hand and replied: "I can save it."

Zhao Yu wanted to turn over and sit up, but he didn't expect that he really had no feeling below the waist. He praised: "It's really amazing!"

Zhu Ying and Xu Mubai supported him half-relying on the bed. Zhu Ying covered Zhao Yu with a quilt and said, "This medicine is very overbearing. It will take at least three days before you can stand up after this injection. You must take it before going to bed."

Massage your legs, otherwise you really won’t be able to stand up.”

Zhao Yu grabbed her waist and said, "I don't like being touched by grown men!"

Zhu Ying blushed and spat: "There are differences between men and women. If someone sees you, you will gossip!"

Zhao Yu came close to her ear, blowing hot water on her ear, which made Zhu Ying's heart beat wildly. He said in a voice that only two people could hear: "What are you talking about? I can't move unless

You can't help but heal my leg!"

"You are asking for a beating!" Zhu Ying was embarrassed and annoyed, and hit Zhao Yu on the shoulder with her backhand.

Zhao Yu could have avoided it but he deliberately received a slap and fell down with a sound of "ah". Zhu Ying was stunned and reached out to help him.

"Are you OK?"

Zhao Yu pulled her close to his arms and said happily: "I feel sorry for this king!"

Xu Mubai couldn't stand it any longer, coughed and said: "If nothing happens to the prince, the common people will leave!"

Zhu Ying shouted: "Wait!"

Xu Mubai said, "What's wrong with my junior uncle?"

Zhu Ying broke free from Zhao Yu's hand, walked to Xu Mubai and said, "By the way, I have always forgotten to ask you, why did you follow Eunuch Jiang?"

Xu Mubai told him about receiving the imperial edict, and Zhu Ying said: "I see, I think it is probably the person who recommended you to the emperor!"

Xu Mubai nodded and said: "My nephew thinks so too, but didn't my uncle say that she was poisoned? If she comes to see my nephew, I don't know how to deal with it."

Zhu Ying smiled and said: "I will prepare the antidote when I return to Biancheng. Once I prepare it, I will give it to you. You must do a good job this time and try to stay in the palace!"

Xu Mubai said seriously: "My nephew knows!"

Xu Mubai wanted to enter the palace to find out the cause of his father's death, and Zhu Ying entered the palace to steal medicine through Xu Mubai. Their purposes were different but they had the same goal.

Zhao Yu felt very unhappy when he saw that Zhu Ying had a secret with another man. He was about to drag Zhao Yu back to him when Yin Hu walked in.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Su is bringing a father-in-law outside the door to ask for an audience?"

Zhao Yu vented his full dissatisfaction on Yin Hu. Yin Hu only felt that his master's eyes were like two sharp swords thrust into him, and he subconsciously shrank himself into a ball.

"Master, if you don't want to see me, my subordinates..."

"No, please come in." Yin Hu took the order and went out. Zhao Yu winked at Zhu Ying and asked her to hide behind the screen. Zhu Ying was unwilling to go, but Zhao Yu said with a serious face, "Quickly

go!"

Zhu Ying hid in reluctantly.

When Zhao Yu smiles, it's like the warm sunshine parting the clouds, but when he hides his smile, it's full of evil aura, making people dare not disobey him.

As soon as Zhu Ying hid, Yin Hu came in with Su Jianguo and a young father-in-law. The young father-in-law held a brocade box in his hand and bowed down to Zhao Yu when he entered the door.

"See the Fourteenth Prince. This is the jade pendant that the Emperor brought to the Fourteenth Prince. It is a talisman of peace that the Empress personally prayed for the Fourteenth Prince. She prayed for the speedy recovery of the Prince and asked the Prince to wear it with him sooner or later.

"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the Queen's great love for my brother." Zhao Yu bowed to the east and said, "Send it to me!"

The little eunuch quickly climbed up and held the box and took two steps towards Zhao Yu. But he didn't know whether he was afraid of Zhao Yu or something. Suddenly he stumbled and the box was thrown away. Zhao Yu didn't even think about saving it.

He went to pick it up at the edge of the bed. Although he caught the box, he forgot that he couldn't move half of his body. He fell heavily to the ground, lying right in front of the little eunuch.

The little eunuch's face was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and kowtowed desperately. He kept chanting: "The slave deserves to die, the slave deserves to die, the prince has mercy on me, the prince has mercy on me..."

The little eunuch knelt down hard to save his life, and soon there was blood on his forehead.

Su Jianguo was also shocked and subconsciously knelt down.

Shenhou and Xugou rushed into the room immediately after hearing the noise. They were shocked and angry when they saw Zhao Yu lying on the ground in such a mess.

Shenhou even lifted the young eunuch up and would break his neck at the command of his master.

Yinhu and Xugou helped Zhao Yu onto the bed. Zhao Yu immediately glanced sharply in the direction of the screen, but said calmly: "My king is fine! Shenhou, let him down."

He said this to Zhu Ying, telling her not to leave the screen.

Shen Hou reluctantly threw the little eunuch to the ground. The little eunuch was smashed to pieces and could not get up for a long time. Zhu Ying's eyes were also burning, and she clenched her fists with both hands. If Zhao Yu hadn't repeatedly warned her not to

If he came out right away, she would have rushed out to teach him a lesson.

Zhao Yu watched the little eunuch finally get up and kneel in front of him. He caressed him playfully. Such silent punishment was even more heartbreaking. The little eunuch was so frightened that he almost fainted. Zhao Yu had had enough fun.

Then he said to Su Jianguo in a sinister tone: "Master Su, please get up!"

The sound was like a gust of cold wind that sent chills all over Su Jianguo's body, not to mention the little eunuch. At this moment, he wished he had never been here.

Zhao Yu sneered and said, "Father-in-law, please get up too."

But the little eunuch didn't dare to get up, and he didn't dare to reply. He just kept his body low and knelt down.

"What are you doing, father-in-law? Get up quickly, get up quickly! The people around me are a little rude, please don't blame me!"

There was no threat in the prince's words but it was more scary than a threat. The little eunuch didn't know whether the prince was sincere but he didn't dare to disobey him. He tried desperately to get up but was so frightened that his limbs were weak and he couldn't get up for a long time.
