The guards who reported the letter from the Chu Palace did not dare to say that the master was crazy, but only said that the Chu king was too sad and had a sudden madness, and he was determined to see the uncle.
Zhao Heng immediately ordered Mr. Fu to prepare the car.
Song Jianing was worried that King Chu was also worried about Feng Zheng, so he got out of bed and quickly served Zhao Heng to get dressed, and whispered, "My lord, I'll go with you too, something happened to your Highness, my sister-in-law must be out of control, I'll go over there. Now, how much can you help?"
Zhao Heng looked at her and answered with a heavy heart.
Song Jianing instructed the nurse to take good care of her daughter, and the couple got into the carriage overnight and galloped towards the Chu palace.
After the King of Chu overturned seven or eight guards here, perhaps because of his physical discomfort, he suddenly fell forward and fell into a coma again. The guards hurriedly got up and moved the prince back to the inner room. Feng Zheng ordered someone to ask for an imperial doctor. She sat by the bedside and took her husband's pulse first.
The disease of madness is mostly caused by depression and anger, disturbed mind;
Feng Zheng clasped her husband's wrist and recalled her crazy behavior in the yard just now. Only then did she realize that her husband was far from being as calm as he appeared to be. sick.
Now that her husband's illness has been confirmed, and after the panic and distress, Feng Zheng quickly calmed down and instructed her maid: "Bring my silver needle." The most urgent task is to use acupuncture to dispel the heat in her husband's body first, otherwise the anger will continue to accumulate. , her husband's madness will only get worse.
The eldest maid was about to leave. Eunuch Kang looked at the unconscious prince, and couldn't help but reminded in a low voice, "Princess, the little one has already sent someone to ask for an imperial doctor. I believe it will be there soon." He knew that the princess was skilled in medicine. , but after all, it is not a medical officer. In case something goes wrong, the wang ye's condition is aggravated on the one hand, and the wang concubine is convicted and punished by the emperor? The lord is already ill, and the princess has another accident, and the huge palace, even the master of the house is gone.
"Go." Feng Zheng said without raising his head, his voice was firm and unquestionable.
The eldest maid glanced at Eunuch Kang and walked away quickly. Eunuch Kang didn't dare to stop him any more, so he could only pin his hopes on the princess' medical skills.
The Chu palace was closer to the palace, and the emperor was the first to know the news. Therefore, Emperor Xuande, who was concerned about the eldest son, arrived first, followed by two teams of imperial guards and two imperial physicians on duty. Emperor Xuande hurried into the inner room, Feng Zheng just pulled out the last silver needle on King Chu's body, and when Emperor Xuande came, Feng Zheng was surprised at first, then put away the needle and knelt aside, kowtowed: " Royal father, the sudden madness of the lord should not be delayed, and the son-in-law dares to take acupuncture for the lord, please forgive me."
The eldest son just vomited blood during the day, but in the middle of the night he went crazy again. Emperor Xuande frowned and looked at his daughter-in-law, who was kneeling there. Emperor Xuande did not pursue it for the time being, but walked to the end of the bed and asked the imperial physician to take the pulse of the eldest son first. The envoy of the Du Yuan of the Taiyuan Hospital came over with a solemn expression, first observed the expression of the King of Chu, saw that the King of Chu's face was pale, and then called the King of Chu's pulse.
The envoy Du had some personal friendships with Imperial Physician Feng. Every year, he went to Feng's house to attend the banquet. He knew Feng Zheng long before Feng Zheng got married. After carefully asking Feng Zheng about King Chu's condition and acupuncture acupuncture points, the envoy Du Yuan said respectfully to Emperor Xuande: "Your Majesty, the anger of the lord has caused him to become ill. Fortunately, the princess gave acupuncture in time to relieve the dry fire in the lord's body. The consequences could be disastrous."
When Emperor Xuande heard that his daughter-in-law was successful, he first called his daughter-in-law to get up, and then asked nervously, "Will the King of Chu have another attack?"
Yuan Envoy Du pondered, lowered his head and said, "This, this minister does not dare to assert, and the conclusion needs to be made by the prince after sobering up."
Emperor Xuande's eyes dimmed.
The little eunuch outside came in and reported that King Shou and Princess Shou were coming. Emperor Xuande glanced at the door and nodded.
Zhao Heng and Song Jianing walked over side by side, and first bowed to Emperor Xuande.
Emperor Xuande also had a very tired day. He waved his hand and didn't want to say a word.
After Song Jianing stood up, he quietly looked over. The last time she saw Emperor Xuande was in the Beiyuan paddock. Emperor Xuande, who was in his early fifties, rode on horseback to hunt. He was full of energy. He looked like he was only in his forties. Unexpectedly, Emperor Xuande seemed to be getting old before he arrived in a month. At the age of five, he stood beside the King of Chu, with a tired face.
When she and the prince got the news, they rushed here. The emperor came even faster than them, which shows how worried about the king of Chu.
Song Jianing has been in Beijing for so long, especially after marrying Queen Shou, he heard a lot of gossip about the emperor on and off. Some said that the emperor murdered Emperor Gaozu, some said that the emperor forced the King of Wu'an to death, and some said that the emperor was defeated in the war with the Liao Kingdom. He is an incompetent emperor, but at least at this moment, the emperor in Song Jianing's eyes is a good father who truly loves his son.
She thought so, and Zhao Heng was also deeply touched. He really did not expect that the royal father would leave the palace overnight.
"Father, it's getting late at night, you should go back to the palace first, son, watch over the elder brother." Zhao Heng urged sincerely.
Emperor Xuande didn't move, and said to his two daughters-in-law: "Go down and rest, here I am with Yuan Xiu, and I will call you when people wake up."
Song Jianing nodded, Feng Zheng hesitated, and wanted to stay by her husband's side, but in the end she and Song Jianing retreated to the outside world.
"In the middle of the night, I even caused my sister to run." The night was as dark as ink, and the lights in the room seemed dim. Feng Zheng held Song Jianing's hand and said guiltily.
"Family, don't be polite to me, sister-in-law, sit down for a while." Song Jianing helped her to the red sandalwood chair in the middle, her eyes filled with concern, "Is brother Cheng okay?"
Feng Zheng snorted: "I was coaxed by a wet nurse, and I'm still asleep."
Song Jianing sat across from her, held Feng Zheng's cold hand, and said softly, "Big brother Jiren has a natural appearance, and he will definitely get better."
Feng Zheng looked at her soft face and held on for most of the night by herself. Now that she finally has a lovable and credible person, Feng Zheng couldn't bear it any longer and buried herself on Song Jianing's shoulder, covering her mouth and sobbing. Before the prince got sick, he was clearly complaining about her. She was afraid that the prince would ignore her again, and even more afraid that the prince would be mad, and even a normal person couldn't do it.
She cried in despair, Song Jianing raised her head and tried her best not to let the tears fall. She was speechless and only patted Feng Zheng's shoulder lightly.
In the inner room, Emperor Xuande noticed that the third child was still standing, patted his side, and asked his son to sit down.
Zhao Heng obeyed.
Emperor Xuande has been holding his eldest son's hand since he sat down, unconsciously touching the back of his eldest son's hand, and after a long silence, he said quietly: "To tell you the truth, the four of you brothers, I love your eldest brother the most, he is the first. A son who has grown up safely, looks like me and has learned a lot of kung fu. Back then, the Liao Kingdom sent envoys to provoke him. The Liao people were highly skilled in martial arts, and the guards I sent on the field all lost. It was your elder brother who ended up. , the opponent can't get up with three moves..."
Thinking of the scene where the eldest son won glory for him, Emperor Xuande smiled and clenched the hand of the eldest son.
Zhao Heng didn't answer and listened quietly.
Emperor Xuande smiled and looked sad: "But your elder brother is too straight, I don't understand... His illness is caused by me."
How absurd, he planned for his son wholeheartedly, but in the end, the son blamed him and went mad.
"Father!"
Zhao Heng plopped down on his knees, and said with a heavy heart, "Father, the emperor has worked so hard, one day, big brother..."
Emperor Xuande put his hand on his son's shoulder and said with a wry smile, "If he could understand my painstaking efforts, he would not be sick today."
Zhao Heng's straight back lowered, he could see the knot in his brother's heart, how could the emperor not guess it
Emperor Xuande turned his gaze to the third son, remembering his son's "father's painstaking efforts" just now, and his chest finally felt a little more comfortable. He has done so much. If all four of his sons blame him, then he has been busy for nothing. Fortunately, the four brothers are the eldest and one stupid. Instead of kissing his father, he favors his uncle.
The sky was getting brighter, because the eldest son was ill, Emperor Xuande wasted a day of court, and the courtiers in front of the main hall were all sighed. They had long known that the emperor loved the eldest prince, King Chu.
Chu palace.
The room was silent, Chu Wang woke up, opened his eyes, saw a figure sitting beside the bed, suddenly jumped up, stretched out his hand and pushed it. Emperor Xuande was getting old. He stayed there all night and was dozing with his head down, but Zhao Heng was awake. Seeing his brother went mad, he rushed over and hugged him tightly. He kept shouting at him, trying to calm him down. .
The King of Chu didn't listen, he twisted his body and kicked his legs and struggled hard.
Zhao Heng was not as strong as him, but Sheng was in the first place and pressed the King of Chu on the bed. Eunuch Kang and several little eunuchs rushed over immediately and pressed the King of Chu together. Emperor Xuande had already retreated a few steps away, looking at the eldest son, whose face was rising red and struggling frantically, he was shocked and in pain, and completely forgot to react.
"Rope!" Zhao Heng turned his head and commanded, only to be distracted for a moment, when unexpectedly, the King of Chu threw a punch and hit him in the face.
"My lord!" Song Jianing exclaimed in surprise.
Zhao Heng didn't hear it, he clasped his brother's iron arm again, bowed his head, and the blood dripped from his nose. The mad King of Chu had probably never seen blood before, so he was stunned for a moment. Zhao Heng took the opportunity to cut his brother's arm, and put him on the bed.
Soon, the King of Chu was tied to a pillar with a chair, stared at him, opened his mouth and shouted loudly, in a terrifying form, and no one would listen to what he said. The kitchen boiled the medicine, the imperial doctor wanted to feed the king of Chu, but the king of Chu knocked over the medicine bowl with his head, Zhao Heng held his brother’s head with his own hands, and the imperial doctor went to feed it again. pole.
"Get the medicine, I will feed you." Emperor Xuande said solemnly.
The King of Chu glared at him fiercely.
"Father, let me try it." Feng Zheng walked over haggard, with red eyes.
Emperor Xuande looked at his daughter-in-law.
Feng Zheng looked at the emperor pleadingly, with tears in his eyes. Emperor Xuande suddenly thought of his women. When a man is vulnerable, it seems that a woman's comfort is more appropriate.
Emperor Xuande nodded.
Feng Zheng took the medicine bowl brought by the little eunuch, and glanced at the people who were guarding him, and found that the prince was full of vigilance against everyone, as if everyone was his enemy, Feng Zheng continued to ask: "Father, the prince is now Don't remember people, he doesn't know that the emperor and the third highness are here to care about him, the more people there are, the more uneasy he will be..."
As if to confirm her words, the bound Chu King roared at Emperor Xuande again.
Emperor Xuande was helpless and went out first. Zhao Heng wanted to stay and help hold the head of the King of Chu. Feng Zheng shook his head slightly. Zhao Heng understood that his sister-in-law was gambling.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Zhao Heng said solemnly.
Seeing that half of his face was swollen by her husband's beating, Feng Zheng also bowed his knees and saluted. Zhao Heng looked at his wife, Song Jianing walked quickly to his side, and the couple walked out of the house side by side.
Only the King of Chu and his wife were left in the inner room. King Chu's eyes were bloodshot as he stared furiously at the woman opposite.
No one bothered, Feng Zheng looked at her husband with a medicine bowl. He was disheveled and described as hideous, but she remembered his husband's neat and dignified appearance. He was a lord outside and was aggressive. When he came to her side, he was as thick-skinned as a city wall. She is very nice, and he is willing to listen to whatever she says.
Feng Zheng didn't believe that her husband really forgot her.
Putting down the medicine bowl, Feng Zheng walked towards the King of Chu step by step. The closer he got, the more fiercely the King of Chu earned. The burly body tightened the ropes that bound him, and the angry roar of resistance was startled. Emperor Xuande and the others all frowned. Only Feng Zheng was not afraid, and slowly stopped opposite the King of Chu. Then, she smiled at the King of Chu, tears falling from her eyes, but the corners of her mouth rose, her brows stretched, and her smile was gentle and moving.
The King of Chu suddenly stopped earning and looked at her in confusion.
"My lord, I remember that the night we got married, you hugged me and said that you liked my smile the most, and that you would never forget the way I laughed in the carriage." Feng Zheng said softly, slowly Taking a step closer, remembering the anxiety, shyness and unexpected sweetness of the flower candle in the wedding room, Feng Zheng couldn't help squatting down, put his hands on the knees of the King of Chu, raised his head, and asked him expectantly: "My lord, do you still like to see me laughing like this? ?"
The King of Chu did not see her smile, and his eyes slowly moved down with the tears in her eyes. The tear disappeared, and a new one came out. Looking at it, his face suddenly got a little itchy, King Chu. He lowered his eyes, but still couldn't see anything on his face. He wanted to get angry, but a cool hand suddenly reached out and gently pressed against his face.
The King of Chu looked over again.
"My lord doesn't cry, I will stay with you all the time. I will make medicine for the lord, and the lord will get better." Feng Zheng wiped his tears and gently brushed away the messy hair in front of the lord, revealing the man's recovery. Fairly handsome face. The King of Chu didn't move, and let her play with his hair, he just stared at her.
Her husband was willing to accept her, and Feng Zheng had hope in his heart. He brought the medicine bowl and saw him frown. Feng Zheng took a sip by himself, and then coaxed him: "It's not bitter at all, don't you believe that the lord will try it?"
The King of Chu looked at her rosy lips, then at the porcelain spoon, and nodded slowly.
Feng Zheng was overjoyed, leaned forward, tried to control his trembling hands, and carefully fed him a mouthful.
With the first sip, there will be a second sip. Whenever the King of Chu doesn't want to drink, Feng Zheng will coax him softly until the King of Chu drinks a full bowl.
After feeding the medicine, Feng Zheng wiped the corners of her husband's mouth. When she stopped, she said in a low voice, "My lord is ill, I'll take my brother back to honor you."
Up to now, she just wants to be reunited with her family, and she doesn't need to ask for anything from others anymore.
