Shiliu was amused by his little nephew, obviously he was not much older than others, but he rubbed his head while laughing, and didn't stop until he almost annoyed Zong Juan.
After school in the afternoon, he went to Xianfu Palace.
Although Shiliu has now moved to the No. 5 residence in Ganxi, he would go to pay his respects to the imperial concubine every day, usually in the evening, and eat dinner there before going back to his residence, today is no exception.
When they arrived at the place, the imperial concubine made people serve tea and fruit plates. When Shiliu had something to eat, the imperial concubine ordered Qianru to prepare Shiliu's clothes and lead him down to take a bath and change into clothes.
It's too hot now, after a whole day of school, and in the afternoon learning to ride and shoot in the Martial Arts Field, the whole body is sweaty and wet, wet and dry, the imperial concubine always feels that the royal family treats their children too harshly, but The rules of the ancestors are like this, and the king of Wei came here like this back then, so naturally he didn't know what to say.
After Shiliu went to take a bath and changed his clothes, he came back and talked to the imperial concubine again. Just as Zong Jue said who bullied him and beat him, Emperor Jianping came suddenly.
It was a coincidence that he came here, the little grandson's ignorance was making the grandmother Huang Guifei laugh straight away, she loved to listen to Zong Yu's affairs in her spare time, Shiliu also knew that the mother and concubine liked to listen, so she specifically sought out He told her amusedly, but Emperor Jianping listened to him rightly.
"Who is this talking about, laughing like this?"
The imperial concubine greeted him with a smile, and helped him to sit down on the kang, while the sixteenth respectfully greeted Emperor Jianping. Emperor Jianping raised his hand, Qianru at the side asked someone to move a pier, and Shiliu sat on it.
"It's not Brother Ping'er. When he first went to the study, Princess Wei was worried that he would be bullied, so she couldn't help explaining a few more words, but King Wei said that the child was bullied and left him alone. Brother Ping'er is a straight-hearted boy." , just say that whoever bullies him beats him. It's just a child's words, just listen to it for fun, and don't take it seriously."
"That kid is really rough-headed, not at all like King Wei when he was a child." Emperor Jianping sipped his tea. With a smile on his face, he probably remembered the frizzy things this little grandson usually did.
The imperial concubine smiled: "No, I also don't think it's the same as when Wei Wang was a child."
Don't look at King Wei's reputation for being gloomy and moody when he grew up. In fact, he was the most calm when he was a child. He was not as high as a table, but he was not as calm as a child, and he was very rigid in his actions. Back then when he was studying in the upper study room, although he was not outstanding, he never caused trouble, let alone practicing martial arts. Even Emperor Jianping praised him for his outstanding talent.
However, if the prince practiced martial arts, no matter how outstanding he was, he could only be a general, not a king. Therefore, even if Emperor Jianping praised him, no one would be jealous except to criticize the third prince as worthless. Comparing with the current brother Ping, the difference is so big, the nature is the same, I am afraid that more is the influence of external forces.
Back then, the imperial concubine hadn't gained power yet, so she lived in the queen's palace and was looked down upon by others, and even the third prince followed the prince, not like a younger brother, but like a slave.
These Jianping emperors all knew about it, but they were dissatisfied when they saw it back then, and because of the overall situation, they didn't want to harm the third prince and mother.
It was like this in the palace, there were too many people and too many slaves, and there were countless people trying to curry favor with the emperor. Everyone hoped to get something from him, so he became stingy. It's not that you don't want to give it, but it's that people who don't have the ability, even if they give it, not only is it not good, but it will harm others.
This was the idea of Emperor Jianping back then. It is undeniable that although his idea was cold-hearted, it was the most appropriate, not to stir up conflicts and provoke conflicts. This is also the reason why the harem has not lost control despite the fighting over the years.
But after going there for so many years, it is probably because of a change of mentality, and people's hearts are also biased. At this time, what Emperor Jianping heard when he heard this was that he had treated the imperial concubine, mother and son badly.
Who doesn't want to be domineering and arrogant? The key is to have that qualification.
Back then, the Queen of Wei had no mother and son, but now the King of Wei has a son.
Combined with the non-stop efforts of those sons in the past two years, on the contrary, the King of Wei has always kept his promise, never meddling with anything in the court, and only blindly operated the academy. Now the academy has a great reputation and has cultivated many talents for the court.
And here in the study room, brother Jue was so reckless that people felt it was deliberate, but this kind of recklessness combined with Wei Wang's not showing up, became meaningless, so it seemed 'real' instead.
So what is right and what is wrong, Emperor Jianping naturally has an account in his mind.
"This kid has good bones and a strong body. He has followed the king of Wei. If he is taught well, he may be an immortal general in the future." Emperor Jianping said, stroking his beard.
"Look at how you praised him, how old is the child, I don't know what will happen in the future." The imperial concubine's voice was still soft, but the smile on her face faded a bit.
Of course Emperor Jianping knew what she was thinking of. If it wasn't for the crown prince back then, maybe this immortal general would have fallen on King Wei. It's a pity that if a big tree wants to become a talent, it will always go through a lot of ups and downs. Well, if you can't make it through, it will only make you regretful.
"Will King Wei's hand be watched by the Imperial Physician Wang?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry about it. It's been many years, and it's also the root cause of an old disease. Except for the unbearable soreness on cloudy and rainy days, there is nothing serious about it."
"After all, it looks good. Physician Wang is proficient in golden needles, and can always relieve one or two."
…
At the same time, Imperial Physician Wang came off duty from the palace and was going to Wei Wang's mansion to ask for peace of mind.
In addition to taking Feng Sheng's pulse, of course it is also necessary to take Wei Wang's pulse, and give him a needle or two along the way, so as to avoid the unbearable pain.
These years have been like this, not only the imperial physician Wang, but also the king of Wei are used to it. So just as Feng Sheng tidied up his clothes, he came out of the inner room, and saw that in the next room, King Wei was squatting on the big kang, with one hand on the kang table, and a few gold needles stuck in his arm.
Physician Wang is bowing his waist for the last injection.
After finishing the work, he took a few steps back respectfully, Dewang asked someone to move a pier, and Doctor Wang sat down and waited.
Feng Sheng went to sit next to King Wei, Tao Zhi and Tao Hong put soft cushions behind her waist, so that she could sit more comfortably. Someone brought a bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup, and put it on her hand, Feng Sheng didn't drink it, but focused on the golden needles.
The two have been married for many years, and it's not the first time she has seen this scene. She always wonders where Wei Wang's hand disease comes from, because she has never heard him say that it will be sore and unbearable in rainy days. These words Most of them are from Wang Taiyi and Dewang.
Although she didn't know what was going on, she only knew that it was an old injury from her early years, but King Wei's attitude was ambiguous, so she naturally understood it and would not question it too much.
Generally, you have to wait for a while to administer the needles. Seeing that the time was almost up, Imperial Physician Wang stepped forward to take the needles.
Dewang stood guard in front of the door, Zhiqiu and the maids all went down, and the room was very quiet.
Seeing that Doctor Wang came up to take the needle, Feng Sheng naturally didn't want to study the boring matter of whether the needle stuck in the flesh, whether it hurt or not. She leaned back to make herself more comfortable, and took the white fungus soup to drink.
"The old man asked for His Majesty's pulse a few days ago. There is indeed erysipelas accumulated in His Majesty's body. It's just that he took it for a short time and it doesn't show up for the time being. But if he insists on not changing it, I'm afraid..."
Feng Sheng's eyebrows twitched, and he still hung his head down to drink the white fungus soup, as if he didn't hear these words. After Wang Taiyi finished speaking, he put the gold needles into the sheepskin pouch one by one. Dewang came over and offered to help him organize the medicine box, and sent him out of the palace.
"when did it happen?"
King Wei frowned: "Mother and Concubine only discovered in recent days that Emperor Father has small red spots on his lower limbs. Because the area is small and there are only a few spots, she is not sure what it is. In addition, the eyes and ears of the palace There are so many, it is not convenient for her to investigate, so I took the opportunity to ask Imperial Physician Wang to help investigate this matter."
"How did the concubine know that it must be related to erysipelas? Could it be a mistake, or other diseases?"
Wei Wang pondered for a while, and said: "You probably don't know that the first emperor died suddenly after taking an overdose of elixir. Although the world didn't know it, everyone in the palace knew something about the situation at that time. In addition, the concubine mother ordered Someone checked the work files of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Jingshengzhai has shipped in a large amount of charcoal every month for the past two years, but they can't tell the purpose, and those who know it are taboo and keep silent."
"Then what are you going to do?"
It was rare for King Wei to be questioned.
He paused, and said: "This matter should be discussed by the prophet and concubine."
Don't mention it, because Feng Sheng is pregnant now, so naturally she was not allowed to take care of this matter, but Wei Wang personally took care of it. After returning, Feng Sheng asked King Wei that the imperial concubine hadn't come up with any regulations yet, and King Wei naturally didn't do anything.
Afterwards, Feng Sheng went to the palace and happened to meet Emperor Jianping in Xianfu Palace.
Emperor Jianping's complexion was rosy, and his complexion looked very good. He was nearly sixty years old, and he was busy with government affairs all year round. No matter how well maintained he was, he already looked old. But this time when Feng Sheng looked over, it might be because of her state of mind, she actually felt that Emperor Jianping seemed to be much younger, although his beard and hair were gray, he had a faint sense of hale and youthful face.
Since ancient times, emperors have been obsessed with the art of alchemy, and there are not a few people who died of erysipelas. Feng Sheng did not expect that Emperor Jianping would also be infected with this way. Anyone who has some insight and discerning ability knows that there is no immortality in the world, and the emperor is not long live, but knowingly committing crimes, what is this called
Maybe it can make people knowingly commit crimes, and it has a certain temptation in itself, which makes people addicted to it.
