Chapter 182: Dead Eunuch
Chapter 182: Dead eunuch
At noon, the servants who were guarding outside finally heard news that the phoenix of Concubine Xian had arrived.
Zhou Zheng suddenly stood up, finally calmed down, glanced at him and said, "Follow me to welcome you."
Headed by Zhou Zheng, dozens of people left the hall and headed straight to the middle gate. The incense table was put out. The servant who was bathing and changing clothes was welcomed for a long time under the leadership of the officials. When the phoenix chassis carried by more than a dozen people slowly reached the threshold, Zhou Zheng said loudly: "Welcome to the Virtuous Concubine..."
The phoenix stopped, and an eunuch came over slowly with a whisk and shouted, "Jiang Gong is exempted from the courtesy. The empress said: Jue Guo Gong is my legitimate brother, and I will return to the palace to visit my relatives. All common etiquettes do not need to be extravagant."
This is a rule to welcome the horse, and it has a bit of an official and consistent meaning. Although it is necessary to avoid rituals, this ritual cannot be avoided.
Chen Ao hated this etiquette deeply, and his pair of thief eyes secretly glanced at Fengchai. Hey, in the curtain tent, someone secretly opened a corner and looked here; and when you look closely, you can see that what is exposed was a little girl with soft hair. This girl is so cute, her face is red with a fluffy cold, and her big eyes are both curious and excited.
The girl looked around for a while, but she turned her eyes on Shen Ao and frowned. She obviously felt that this person was really bold. Others were bowing their heads, but he only looked here. It was okay, but she dared to laugh.
Chen Ao smiled even stronger when he saw this girl. This little brat is quite interesting. Judging from her appearance, she must be that princess. If the little princess hadn't frowned, she would have been even cuter.
After a while, Chen Ao saw the curtain, a delicate hand hugged the girl and entered the phoenix chassis. Chen Ao squinted his eyes and looked at it seriously, "It's not right, isn't it that the concubine Xian and the princess are coming? Why do there seem to be three figures behind the gauze?"
After a lot of rituals, Concubine Xian finally welcomed into the back garden. The mansion had specially vacate a loft and repaired it. Now it is magnificent and is specially used for Concubine Xian to live in. In addition to relatives, all the male servants who responded have retreated.
Chen Ao followed the wife's heels and walked side by side with Zhou Ruo, but he felt a little sarcastic in his heart. It was such a big show! After all, this mansion is your concubine's home. Is that so? I glanced at Zhou Ruo, but saw that Zhou Ruo was absent-minded, so I gently pinched her skirt and whispered: "Cousin, why are you doing with your eyebrows frowned?"
Zhou Ruo came back to his senses, reluctantly chuckled a light smile, bit his lip and said, "I feel a little uncomfortable."
Speechless, I didn’t want to go to the bathroom, Chen Ao looked around and whispered: “Why don’t my cousin go and take a break.”
Zhou Ruo frowned, as if he was hesitating, and then shook his head and said, "I'm afraid my aunt will be unhappy when she finds out."
Chen Ao suddenly reached out his hand, grabbed her tenderness while the person was unprepared, and chuckled softly: "If my cousin can't stand it anymore, just hide my hand fiercely."
Zhou Ruo really pinched him hard and said angrily: "You are so brave. If someone sees it..."
Chen Ao said with confidence: "Cousin, who dares to gossip? Hey, cousin, what do you mean is that if no one sees it, I..."
"Don't talk nonsense." Zhou Ruo retracted his hand and quickly turned his pretty face over.
Alas, my cousin is learning from Lei Feng, okay? It’s not okay to do good things these days!
When the Fengjia stopped at the entrance of the attic, the Fengjia stopped and the curtain was opened. With the help of several father-in-law, two beautiful figures were chased. An eunuch was about to pick up the girl that Fengjia caught up with, but the girl jumped down with a plop.
A young woman who was chasing her first frowned and scolded her, "Bi'er, don't mess around." As she said that, she grabbed the girl's hand, and her eyes fell on a petite and lovely girl beside her, and said, "Ning'an, this is my parents' home. You can't leave the palace for a while, don't be restrained."
The girl named An Ning said in a voice: "Yes."
The group went straight into the pavilion, and everyone followed him one after another.
When they arrived at the pavilion, there were also curtains and gauzes. The place of the Virtue was just after the gauze. There were brocade docks on both sides. Everyone sat down one after another, and a maid brought tea and pastries. Zhou Zheng said aloud: "The Virtue is here, and I am very lucky for my brother. I don't know what instructions the Empress has."
I don’t know how unfamiliar he was when he spoke like this. The Xianfei looked slightly and said indifferently: “Brother, I am very satisfied, so there is no need to worry anymore.”
Chen Ao was blinded. He wanted to pass through the gauze and see the peace left to his back. It should be noted that the biggest problem of men is that they are curious. After seeing a beautiful figure, they couldn't help but look in front.
Of course, Chen Aoduan is not lustful, he is just curious; but he didn't know that his eyes were blindly looking, Zhou Ruo gave him a blank look and said in a low voice beside him: "Cousin, what are you looking at?"
Chen Ao quickly restrained himself, like an old monk sitting down, and said in a quiet voice: "My cousin is thinking."
"think?"
"Yes, thinking about life, you see, life is changing. Your aunt was a lady who was waiting for her to be a boudoir for more than ten years ago. Now she has called herself this palace. What will happen in twenty years?"
Zhou Ruo sneered: "Saying so much, don't you just want to see that princess?"
Huh? She saw this. Chen Ao's aura weakened and he stopped talking immediately.
At this moment, he heard the Xianfei suddenly say, "Which is Chen Ao?"
When this sentence came out, everyone in the pavilion looked at Chen Ao, and Chen Ao said: "Students are Chen Ao, the concubine of the virtuous, the students are polite."
The girl next to Concubine Xian pointed at Chen Ao and said, "Mother, it's him. He was very presumptuous just now."
Chen Ao was speechless, damn girl, you are too good at complaining, let’s see what’s wrong? Don’t say that you are a little broken child, even if you grow up in the future, unless you don’t go out, I will still watch it. Isn’t a princess a human? Since she is a human, why can’t people watch it?
Concubine Xian didn't blame him and smiled slightly: "In the palace, I heard a poem, yes, it's Luo Jiang's resentment. Is it said that you wrote this poem?"
Chen Ao said modestly: "The student's inspiration suddenly appears, hehe, not worth mentioning." He couldn't help but think: "Why did this word be passed on to the palace? Oh, it's so embarrassing."
Concubine Xian smiled a little stronger and said, "This word is very good. Everyone in the palace likes it very much. Many people heard that you are the nephew of the Duke's Mansion, so they came to ask the palace for advice." Then, he said, "However, it is recognized that the palace is the best in the palace. This time, Emperor An Ning came to ask you for advice."
Oh, I got it, it turns out that Concubine Xian asked her that someone was coming to ruin the situation! This person is still a princess, and this princess will not suppress others as her identity, right! Otherwise, it would be very unfair!
Chen Ao couldn't help feeling a little depressed, but he couldn't say: "The student is not the opponent of Emperor Ji, so let's forget about this."
Concubine Xian chuckled and said, "You don't have to be afraid, Emperor An Ning is not a beast."
As soon as the Xianfei finished speaking, a light cough came from the curtain. Xianfei hurriedly said, "Send the golden elixir quickly."
The eunuch suddenly panicked, anxiously found a medicine bottle and said at the top of his throat: "Water, bring water."
The maid went to bring the water, and together with the eunuch, she lifted the gauze and went to the front of Emperor An Ning. One pillowed her head, the other fed her Huang Cancan's pills, and then swallowed the water.
As a result, the people in the sect pavilion suddenly became panicked, and the wife said, "It's so good, what's wrong? Come and call the doctor."
After lifting the gauze, Chen Ao saw clearly the appearance of Emperor Anning. The appearance of Emperor Anning was about 16 or 17 years old. Nine golden phoenixes were embroidered on a red dress. Although it looked less solemn than the black dress, it was extremely gorgeous. She wore a three-phoenix crown and was rich and noble, but her beautiful face was red with embarrassment, as if something was blocking her throat. Under her long eyelashes, the tears were confused and emitting a hint of pain.
After feeding the elixir, the cough still did not recover. Even the Xianfei's face changed drastically and said, "It's still a good thing to go out today. Why did you get sick? An Ning, An Ning, hurry up, feed another golden elixir."
The eunuch poured out the golden elixir from the medicine bottle and was about to send it to Princess Anning's lips, but Princess Anning gritted her teeth and shot a little stubbornness in her eyes, which was obviously in great pain.
Not long after, the doctor hurried over with the medicine box, and ignored the rules, and immediately knelt down and took the pulse. Not long after, he shook his head and sighed, "The pulse is disordered, as if there is yin deficiency and dryness, but it is not like it. There seems to be weak fire in the body..."
Zhou Zheng said with a gloomy face: "What are the symptoms?"
The doctor smiled bitterly and said, "Mr., this pulse is too chaotic and it is difficult to determine for a while."
Zhou Zheng had no choice but to say, "Go and ask the imperial doctor, and call someone."
At this time, Chen Ao, who had been watching without saying a word before, suddenly said: "I'll take a look."
As he said that, Chen Ao didn't care about anything else, so he walked to the edge of the collapse, but did not kneel down or take his pulse. He glanced at Princess An Ning, and saw that her face was red, as if a fire was flying, choking her neck, but it seemed like a thorn in her throat. She had already guessed a little in her heart. The eunuch wanted to give her a golden elixir. Chen Ao quickly stopped her with his hands, snatched the golden elixir and looked up and down, "Where did this elixir come from?"
The eunuch said: "This is the pill that Eunuch Liang personally refined."
Chen Ao was speechless, Damn, the eunuchs changed their careers to practice immortal pills. It was really amazing that they had the ability to practice the elixir that would bring back your manly nature to show you. In ancient times, most golden pills were things that harmed people. Many people turned out to be minor illnesses and pains, but after taking these golden pills, they could be cured quickly at the beginning, but from then on, the minor illness gradually turned into a major illness and died in the end.
The pill refined by the dead eunuch is probably not a good thing, and it is very likely that the princess's condition is aggravated!
Eunuch Liang? This man was quite well heard of after he traveled through time. This man was in the palace and had a similar status to Yang Jian. Yang Jian was the emperor's personal eunuch. Liang Shicheng, the influence of this Eunuch Liang was mainly outside the palace. Yang Jian was called the inner minister, and Liang Shicheng was called the hidden prime minister, and his power was extraordinary.
It was heard that it was the pill refined by Eunuch Liang, Chen Ao was silent for a moment. If he asked the princess not to feed it, his condition would be cured. However, sooner or later, this matter would be heard in the ears of the dead eunuch. He might offend a big man for nothing; but if he kept silent, although the princess had nothing to do with him, it was no different from not saving him when he saw death. Ask yourself, if such a thing was done, he would be afraid that he would not be able to sleep at night.
Chen Ao's head was slightly raised, and saw Princess An Ning lying in the arms of Concubine Xian, who was already angry and coughed desperately, but no matter what, she couldn't spit it out. Her pretty face seemed to be burned, which was so hot. Chen Ao knew that this was the effect of feeding the golden elixir. This elixir added a lot of lead and mercury. After taking it, her whole body was hot. If a person with ordinary physical strength could feel comfortable after taking it, he would not feel uncomfortable after taking it. However, if a person with weak body took it, his condition would worsen and even die.
Damn, if you offend me, you will offend me. Isn’t it just a dead eunuch? After gritting his teeth, Chen Ao said coldly: “Don’t feed this golden elixir anymore.”
"Ah..." The eunuch was shocked and said, "Young Master, this golden elixir is a fairy medicine. In the past, the princess's old illness relapsed and she has been fed all the time."
Chen Ao ignored him and whispered: "Give warm water and feed it to the princess."
The eunuch panicked: "This...this...ethodox Liang instructed..."
"Hurry! If the princess is nothing but something, will you take responsibility?" Chen Ao growled sternly, his face blushing.
Princess An Ning saw a man standing in front of the couch with a slightly ferocious expression, but she was frightened. Cold sweat kept rolling down. Concubine Xian hurriedly wiped the sweat from her forehead. The girl on the side was frightened by Chen Ao's roar, and her eyes were so scared that she burst into tears and burst into tears.
The lady hugged the girl, whispered comfort, and hurriedly took her out of the house.
Zhou Zheng seemed extremely confident at this moment, and a trace of splendor shot out from his eyes, and said to Chen Ao: "Have you learned medical skills?"
Chen Ao shook his head: "I haven't learned it."
Zhou Zheng's face changed: "Is this method effective?"
No matter what, Princess Anning must not have had an accident in the Duke's Mansion. She had just received Jindan, and Anning's condition worsened, and the doctor could not diagnose the condition for a while. At this moment, she had to seek medical treatment in a hurry.
Chen Ao said: "Drink more warm water and see if you can stabilize the condition first. As for this golden elixir, you must never take it anymore."
Chen Ao looked at Zhou Zheng deeply, as if he had a certain determination, because he understood that the next sentence might cause trouble for him, but at this moment, his mind was extremely clear and he said slowly: "This pill is afraid... poisonous."
Chen Ao's voice was neither high nor low, and he was determined and calm. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he said this. In life, he couldn't say many things, but he had to say them. After saying it, he suddenly felt relaxed all over.
Zhou Zheng looked at Chen Ao with a calm eyebrows, but suddenly patted his shoulder, as if he understood the nephew's mood at the moment, and then said, "Did you hear it? Take the golden dan and send warm water! Hurry!"
