Regardless of what the people outside thought, in the bedroom, Emperor Yongming stood facing the Queen, and Guo Xun and Zhuo Jin stood in the corner. Emperor Yongming ordered people to pull down the curtain of the bedroom and open the ebony box. When the strange fragrance of the fairy fruit wafted out and the soft light appeared, the queen was too shocked to react.
Emperor Yongming took out the emerald bottle from the ebony box, Guo Xun immediately stepped forward to take the box with both hands, and quickly backed away. Emperor Yongming said: "Take the jade cup."
Guo Xun immediately brought a larger jade cup, and Emperor Yongming poured the fairy fruit and fairy water into the jade cup. The light of the fairy fruit lit up the entire bedroom, the queen held her breath, and even Emperor Yongming's heart beat violently.
"You must already know about the fairy fruit."
The queen looked up.
Emperor Yongming took a deep breath, picked up the fairy fruit, put it in his mouth, and hugged the queen. Aware of Emperor Yongming's intentions, the Empress broke free and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, no!" Kneeling heavily, "There is only one fairy fruit, my Majesty, please take it as soon as possible."
Emperor Yongming bent over, grabbed the Queen's arm and pulled him up, and then, without giving Queen Queen a chance to object, he clasped the other's head with the other hand and gagged the other's mouth.
Both Guo Xun and Zhuo Jin wept on the skirts of their clothes. Emperor Yongming pinched the queen's chin vigorously and asked him to open his mouth. A fairy fruit, Emperor Yongming forced the queen to eat half of it. When the sweet fruit enters the mouth, the queen's salty tears are mixed. Emperor Yongming held on to the queen until a fairy fruit entered their stomachs, and did not let go until he confirmed that there was no more fairy fruit in the queen's mouth.
"The emperor..."
The Queen's tears dripped down one by one, and Emperor Yongming hugged him, his voice hoarse: "Three thousand weak waters, I only take this scoop of you to drink. I will take you with me when I go to heaven and earth, I will take you with me, I," the voice of Emperor Yongming After a pause, he grabbed the queen painfully, and his whole body arched.
"Well!"
"emperor!"
"Chitose!"
Suddenly, the emperor screamed in pain. After everyone outside was stunned, everyone glanced at Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an, and then rushed to the door of the bedroom.
"emperor!"
"Don't come in!" It was the Queen.
"Ishii! Brother An!" Elder Weng, General Dai and King Luo Rong were frightened to death, and Jiang Kangning's hands and feet were also cold. Wang Shijing said calmly, "Since it's a fairy fruit, there should be something strange after taking it."
Shao Yun'an said: "It shouldn't be a bad thing for Chitose not to let him in."
"Wang Shijing! Shao Yun'an! If there is any difference between the emperor and Chitose! A thousand cuts would be light!" an official scolded angrily.
Shao Yun'an squinted at him: "If you want to kill or cut, you have to wait for the emperor to speak. My lord, do you expect something to happen to the emperor and Qiantui? Qiantui has said that he will not let him in, but there is no result yet. You It’s really ugly to be so impatient.”
Shao Yun'an was absolutely confident, he was already waiting for the emperor to give him a big reward. With the two big backers of the emperor and Qiantui, and the general's mansion, even if a few princes are in front of him, he will not give face.
"Shut up! I still don't know what's going on inside, so it's not appropriate to make random guesses!"
The old general Dai was very rude, but everyone knew who he was talking about. After being raped by Shao Yun'an, a "grassroots man", and beaten in the face by the acting veteran general, the official's face was very embarrassing. Someone tugged at the man, who snorted heavily at Shao Yun'an and turned his head away.
The emperor's voice kept coming from the bedroom, and everyone was in a state of panic. At the same time, everyone couldn't help muttering, without the queen's voice, could it be that the emperor swallowed the fairy fruit alone? Not to mention the mutterings of the officials present, even Shao Yun'an muttered. The emperor won't take it all alone, if so, it's really a slap in the face. Shao Yun'an forgot, or he didn't think of it, because he had given the empress the lingering milk, and the empress had already suffered from pain once. Although it was a little painful this time, it was completely within the tolerable range.
In the dormitory, the Empress pressed Yongming Emperor to prevent him from hurting her. Zhuo Jin and Guo Xun turned pale in a hurry, but under the command of the queen, they did not mess up their hands and feet.
Emperor Yongming had never been in such pain in his life, the pain was so painful that he couldn't care about his identity at all, and screamed (miserably) again and again. With the assistance of Zhuo Jin and Guo Xun, the Empress took off Emperor Yongming's clothes. Emperor Yongming's body was covered with stinky dirt.
When Emperor Yongming was in so much pain that he was just humming, Guo Xun and Zhuo Jin didn't know how many basins of dirty water they wiped away for him. People outside saw pots of clean water coming in and pots of dirty water coming out. Everyone was muttering what was going on, and some people saw some tricks and couldn't help but feel uneasy.
The queen's clothes were also dirty, most of which belonged to Emperor Yongming. The queen poured several cups of water for Emperor Yongming, and when Emperor Yongming finally regained his breath, the first sentence he said was: "The wooden horse."
Emperor Yongming's tossing and tossing passed in an hour. An hour may not be long, but to Emperor Yongming, it was a journey back and forth between heaven and earth. As for Guo Xun and Zhuo Jin, who had witnessed the changes of Emperor Yongming with their own eyes, their jaws were about to drop.
The door of the bedroom finally opened, and the person who came out was Guo Xun. Guo Xun was sweating all over his face, but his face was full of smiles. Some people also laughed when they saw this, and some people sank downright when they saw this. Weng Lao immediately asked: "How are the emperor and Chitose?"
Guo Xun said to Weng Lao with a smile: "The Emperor and Chitose are very nice, now we have to take a bath and change clothes. The Emperor asked you, the old general, the prince and all the adults to wait in the East Lin Hall."
very nice...
Many people thumped in their hearts, Old Weng, Old General Dai and King Luo Rong laughed completely relieved now. Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an were the calmest. They were originally fairy fruits, wouldn't they be very good after eating them
Next, Guo Xun and Zhuo Jin asked the eunuchs and maids to carry hot water. Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an followed to Donglin Hall. Now no one spoke, and no one questioned that the fairy fruit was fake. All kinds of eyes fell on Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an, and they stood behind Weng Lao and Dai Lao General with normal expressions, without arrogance or impetuosity. Old Weng, Old General Dai and King Luo Rong made no secret of their joy, but they were definitely not as calm as they appeared in their hearts.
After waiting for another hour, when Emperor Yongming and the Empress walked into the East Lin Hall together, even Shao Yun'an couldn't help but whistle in his heart. Look at Emperor Yongming first, his face is red and his complexion is fair, and the original white hair on his temples has completely returned to blue silk. Most of the ancients looked old, and Emperor Yongming was no exception, but the Emperor Yongming at this moment is definitely young enough to pinch water.
The Queen's change is even greater. Not to mention his ruddy complexion, he looked like a sixteen-year-old boy. The skin is so white that it makes people dizzy. Dai old general is even more in a trance, he seems to have returned to many years ago.
Weng Lao was the first to react and knelt down: "Congratulations to my emperor, congratulations to Qiantui!"
The old general Dai obviously regained his composure, and knelt down under the support of Wang Shijing: "Congratulations to my emperor, congratulations to Qiantui."
For a while, congratulations resounded.
"Everyone loves you, get up quickly, Shi Jing and Yun An."
Emperor Yongming added this sentence deliberately, which shows that he is in an extremely good mood. Many people looked at the two with complex and secret hatred, but the old general Dai laughed out loud, and said directly: "The emperor and Qiantui ate the fairy fruit, it is the blessing of the emperor and Qiantui, and the blessing of my people."
Emperor Yongming sat down with the empress, and also said with a happy face: "This blessing was not originally from me and the empress, but it was delivered to me and the empress by Shi Jing and Yun'an."
The queen looked at Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan with a smile and said: "You two are loyal to the emperor, the emperor has seen it. The two of you offered fairy fruits, which can be described as a miracle. The emperor rewards you very much, and I will also reward you very much." .”
Shao Yun'an knelt down: "Your Majesty, Chitose, Brother Jing and I don't want to reward you too much, I implore the Emperor and Chitose to give you fairy water." Kowtow. In order to cover up his biggest secret, kneeling is nothing, as long as he can ask for water in front of so many faces.
Wang Shijing also knelt down. Old Weng, General Dai, and King Luo Rong were in a hurry. The three of them knelt down together and begged for mercy. Emperor Yongming raised his hand to prevent them from speaking, and then said, "Ishii, Yun'an, you two are loyal to me and to your father." Filial piety, do your best to Dayan. The two of you can monopolize this celestial fruit, but you are willing to take the risk to dedicate it to me. You also risk being punished by me and persecuted by others, asking me for celestial water, but Not for the two of you, I am very grateful and even more moved."
After a pause, Emperor Yongming's tone changed: "Yuan Hongmin."
"The minister is here." The chief minister of the cabinet came out.
"Designation."
"yes."
Yuan Hongmin immediately sat down behind the small desk used to draw up the purpose, and Guo Xun arranged the papers.
"Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an, the villagers of Xiushui Village, Yongxiu County, went through all kinds of dangers to seek the fairy fruit for me and the queen, and made Wang Shijing a loyal and brave marquis, which will be inherited from generation to generation; Shao Yun'an was given the title of second-rank general and Zhengjun; the eldest son, Wang Qing, was named the eldest son , the eldest queen, Jingyan, is the princess of Yilan; the three tigers are granted the protection of the country.
Give a pair of gold medals to avoid death. Xiushui Village will be renamed as Zhongyong Village from now on, and given to Zhongyong Hou. Give marriage to Yilan Princess and Luo Rongwang's righteous grandson Jiang Moxi, and choose a day to accept the lottery. There are thousands of acres of fertile land, three jade mines, one hundred households of servants, one hundred pieces of silk and satin, one hundred craftsmen, one official kiln, and one weaving workshop. Zhun Zhongyonghou established his own family and built his own ancestral hall. From now on, Zhongyonghou's family will be the Zhongwang family. "
Not to mention how terrified the people below were when they heard it, and not to mention how trembling the hands of the cabinet ministers who drafted the imperial decree, even Shao Yun'an's scalp was numb when he heard it, let alone Wang Shijing.
After talking about the rewards of Emperor Yongming, he didn't reward gold and silver, nor did he reward antique calligraphy and paintings, because Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing had neither shortage nor need, and all the rewards he rewarded were what they absolutely needed and should have. After Emperor Yongming's reward was finished, the Empress said, "From now on, Zhengjun and Princess Yilan can walk freely in front of my palace."
Zhuo Jin immediately walked up to Shao Yun'an holding the two jade documents in both hands, and Shao Yun'an knelt down and took them with both hands. The queen continued: "The son Zhongyong and Jiang Moxi entered the Imperial Academy, this matter needs to be handled by the old master himself."
"The old minister would like to obey the decree of Qiansui Yi."
"The princess of Yilan enters the palace every day to learn the palace rules and etiquette, and I would like to ask the old emperor to find a suitable person to teach the princess of Yilan piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."
"Old minister, do it quickly."
