People in high positions pay great attention to face. ↖↗, usually, they are also particularly afraid of death.
For example, Cao Cao became angry and stabbed to death the courtier who accused him after dancing swords and reciting poems, but pretended to be drunk, and buried and comforted the courtier's son-in-law the next day. Later, when Cao Cao came to treat Hua Tuo, he would not believe the idea of cutting off his head for treatment, so he sent the genius doctor to prison.
Emperor Xuanwu is a typical representative of this.
Does he trust the Master Qin
Trust, but it's still far from the level where you can trust your life to the other party's control.
Xinmai is a big acupoint in a person's body, how can it be placed in the hands of a master of the Xuanyue rank? There is a fear of life between day and night.
However, his heart failure is also quite annoying.
"I still have great ambitions to relax, and I look forward to the reunification of the world!" These are the words Xuanwu Emperor secretly clenched his fists in the quiet night alone.
As a promising monarch, Emperor Xuanwu hoped that he could recover his health more than anyone else.
Ever since Xiao Ruoyao made him sick last time due to the fuss, Emperor Xuanwu has been sick and tired. Every time he worked hard, Emperor Xuanwu felt dizzy and weak. This is a typical symptom of heart failure.
In the past few days, many imperial physicians and well-known doctors in Wudu have been detained in the palace. For example, Tang Guoshou, who cooperated with Wu Zhe in the orphan treatment plan, was among them. Many eminent imperial physicians failed to go home, and concentrated on diagnosing and treating Emperor Xuanwu's illnesses in the palace.
There are many types of myocardial ischemia. Emperor Xuanwu's own physical strength is strong, and if the myocardial symptoms are sufficiently manifested, it is already very serious. In this era, although there are capabilities in the treatment of heart failure, the treatment of myocardial ischemia with traditional Chinese medicine stones pays attention to recuperation, and it cannot be cured overnight or within a few days.
A group of doctors ran around in a hurry, but it was useless. Emperor Xuanwu, who was eager to treat the disease, even kept them in the palace.
Fortunately, no one raised any objections, and the spy chief arranged for someone to find an excuse to inform their family members, and nothing happened for the time being. It's just that it's impossible for the family not to be scared. But dare not tell outsiders.
Therefore, Emperor Xuanwu was basically disappointed with the methods of the medical world. It just so happened that the master of Qin Palace proposed that the heart failure could be cured, which made Emperor Xuanwu very happy.
However, as a high-ranking person, he was still worried that the Master of Qin Palace would cheat him. He was not mainly worried that the Master Qin would harm him, but that he was worried that something might go wrong with her treatment.
Emperor Xuanwu dared not make any mistakes. All the important officials around him did not dare to let the emperor take risks.
The woman Wu Zhe deliberately prepared became a very good alchemy stone.
When the treatment was over, the inside line of Yuan Healing Hall released the news. The spies and guards that Emperor Xuanwu had arranged for a long time ago immediately asked the woman's family to pick up the woman. At the same time, many doctors were brought in for a special [consultation].
"Okay, really good."
"It's amazing, the old man also diagnosed this woman with heart failure. I didn't expect that she was cured within a few hours today."
"Yuan Healing Palace really deserves its reputation. It turns out that they have been opposing us in a low-key manner. Sigh. I am ashamed."
A group of doctors sighed with emotion.
Elder Xie and other masters trusted by Emperor Xuanwu used profound energy to diagnose and confirmed that the woman's heart arteries had returned to normal.
"Oh, why are there so many people?" The woman also woke up quickly, but was startled by a group of doctors around her.
No one had time to explain and sent her back directly. She is worthless, and everyone knows that the test is successful.
The doctors sighed with emotion, but they didn't dare to leave easily.
The intelligence chief and Chief Peng ran to report to Emperor Xuanwu. Emperor Xuanwu pondered for a while: "Come here, Mr. Xie. Little Pengzi, go to the inner treasury and get two Nine Luck Repayment Pills."
General Manager Peng was always called Little Pengzi in front of Emperor Xuanwu.
"Yes—" Manager Peng replied. But in my heart I was very surprised.
The Nine Luck Repayment Pill is a top-notch pill that restores energy to practitioners of profound energy or vitality. Not to mention that there are very few hidden in Wu's internal treasury. Even the three saints of the Three Saints Sect don't hold much.
The spy leader also knew the truth, but both of them were quick-witted people, and they quickly thought of the purpose of Emperor Xuanwu's use of the elixir: to restore the vitality of the master Qin and Zhou Zhiruo.
With that woman as a lesson for the past, the advantage is that it can be sure that Yuan Therapy can cure heart fatigue, which is a great blessing for the Wu Kingdom. But there is a bad result, that is, the Master Qin and Zhou Zhiruo must have been seriously injured, and it may be difficult to recover in a short time.
With this Nine Luck, the pill will be paid off. Everything is easy to say. Palace Master Qin and Zhou Zhiruo must be able to recover their vitality in a very short period of time, and then they can treat Emperor Xuanwu.
After Mr. Peng came back with the elixir, he presented it to Emperor Xuanwu, and flattered him: "Zhou Zhiruo seems to be a blessing from the heavens in our Dawu Kingdom. Not to mention that she is a genius who can sing against Xiao Ruoyao from the Qi Kingdom. The Hall Master treats your heart fatigue for the emperor. It is already a rare talent."
"I'm very lucky." Emperor Xuanwu said proudly.
"What the emperor said is wrong." Chief Manager Peng said with a serious face: "This time, the master of the Qin Palace and Miss Zhou are treating the emperor together. It is really a blessing for the Wu Kingdom, the people, and the world."
"Hahaha—" Emperor Xuanwu laughed.
When Director Peng said this, he obviously implied that there would be a wise king in the world to achieve hegemony. And the country where this king lives is undoubtedly the most powerful Wu country among the Three Kingdoms.
The spy chief also laughed happily.
The gloom of Emperor Xuanwu's illness these past few days seems to have dissipated.
On the other hand, Emperor Xuanwu smiled and felt another wave of weakness in his heart, which made him sluggish.
He propped up his body and sat on the throne until Lao Xie came and ordered: "You send these two Nine Luck Repayment Pills to the master of Qin Palace and her apprentice Zhou Zhiruo. Heart failure, the loss of vitality is bound to be huge. You give it to the two of them in your own name, don't get involved with my heart."
"Yes." Mr. Xie didn't ask any more questions, took the jade bottle presented by Director Peng, and left with the order.
Only then did Emperor Xuanwu get up, and slowly walked back to his bedroom to rest.
Director Peng and the spy chief lamented in their hearts: Emperor Xuanwu is getting old...
Although being in his forties is the so-called prime of life, he has already lost too much physical strength through years of fighting in his youth. Even though the cultivation base of Xuan Qi is not low, Emperor Xuan Wu is also aging rapidly after the onset of heart failure. In the past, he would never go back to rest so soon.
The two hurriedly waited for Emperor Xuanwu to lie down.
Emperor Xuanwu was on the couch, and suddenly remembered something: "Bring "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and ask Zhou Cairen to read it to me."
Zhou Cairen is the woman with the most beautiful voice in the Palace of Empress Xuanwu.
Director Peng immediately went to do so.
Not long after, Zhou Cairen came to recite "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" for the emperor.
Emperor Xuanwu listened to the contents of the book. A feeling rose in my heart.
Will I become Cao Cao? Died before his ambition was fulfilled, leaving the great cause of reunification to future generations
No, I am about to ascend the throne as the emperor, and I am already the title of emperor now. Emperor Xuanwu categorically rejected his unsteady thoughts, and forced himself to return to the thoughts of the domineering emperor.
Wu Zhe never imagined that the novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that he wrote casually would make Emperor Xuanwu have a sense of sadness about the great river going east. There is even the idea of seeing through the hegemony of the world of mortals and retiring.
Besides, Xie Lao left the Xuanwu Emperor's Palace, and couldn't help laughing out of joy along the way.
This is a good job, I don't need to pay to give such a generous gift. This elixir is the Nine Luck Repayment Pill, and even her husband, who is a saint, has not eaten a few of them. Sending it over like this, the master of Qin Palace and that little beautiful girl are still so happy that their noses are bubbling
Oh, when I think of that little girl, I feel that she is really the best candidate for a daughter-in-law. Xie Lao thought about taking this opportunity to get in touch with Zhou Zhiruo more and create opportunities for her and his own development.
Xie always doesn't care about whether her baby is suitable for Zhou Zhiruo, she only thinks that Zhou Zhiruo can help improve the appearance of her family and offspring.
along the way. Xie Lao thought that it would be smooth sailing to gain the gratitude of the Qin Palace Master and Zhou Zhiruo. But what I didn't expect was that the master of Qin Palace didn't seem to accept his "good intentions".
"Old Xie, don't waste such a precious thing on me." Palace Master Qin's eyes showed no trace of greed, and carefully pushed back the jade bottle handed over by Old Xie.
"Huh? I reluctantly gave it to you." Old Xie was puzzled.
"That's why I can't take it anymore. You can't just waste this kind of precious medicine." The master of Qin Palace said that it was true. Even without Wu Zhe's advice just now, what she thought was that Xie Lao's husband is one of the three saints, and if he wants to fight against the suzerain of Qi, he can't just waste precious pills.
Where did she want it. Wu Zhe had long guessed this process. Her innocence was like a fly on a bald man's head.
"Just keep it. This is a little bit of my sister's heart." Xie Lao insisted on being a good person.
However, the master of the Qin Palace kept on being an honest person: "No, no, no, it must not be accepted."
The two pushed each other, Wu Zhe laughed secretly beside him.
"Master, I think Mr. Xie still has a lot of good things on him, so let's take the others." Wu Zhe came over with a grin, without waiting for Mr. Xie to react. His little hand touched her waist pouch.
"Don't touch it!" After all, Mr. Xie has a deep cultivation, and immediately stopped Wu Zhe's hand: "There is a mechanism here, be careful to corrode your tender hands."
"Ah!" Wu Zhe pretended to be shocked.
Xie Lao released the small mechanism on his waist, took off his waist bag and pretended to be generous: "Zhiruo, you girl is really cute, let us know that we are a family. What do you want? .I'm willing to give it to you."
"What's there for Mr. Xie?" Wu Zhe asked with a smile, poking his head into his waist pocket.
"Zhiruo, don't forget your form." The Master of the Qin Palace reprimanded from the side.
Wu Zhe retracted his head, and actually saw a lot of things in an instant.
In fact, there are basically no secrets about the mechanisms on Mr. Xie's body during this trial.
Xie Lao is the number one master poisoner of the Three Sacred Sects, and he has a lot of tricks on him.
Not long ago, Elder Xie and Elder Fu Ling fought, revealing some secrets. Wu Zhe already knew a lot about her in Elder Fu Ling, but he was not very clear about the settings of some close organs.
Wu Zhe listened to the scolding from the master of Qin, his behavior restrained, and he just smiled and looked at Mr. Xie.
Mr. Xie was a little terrified by her gaze, and asked secretly how could this girl seem to be able to read my mind
She tentatively asked: "Do you fancy the Huangshi in my pocket?"
Hitting the Yellowstone is a hidden weapon similar to the migratory locust stone, but it is fed with poison or drug, even if it rubs against the cheek of a person, it can be poisoned or stunned.
Wu Zhe smiled without saying a word.
"Either you fancy this..." Mr. Xie thought she didn't like it, so he kept taking out all kinds of protective treasures from his waist pocket.
Wu Zhe's gazes were recorded in his heart one by one as if taking photos and leaving samples, and he would ask a few words from time to time.
Mr. Xie told the truth, but he didn't know that he revealed the details of the hidden weapon he had.
Given time. If she fights with Wu Zhe or Elder Fu Ling again, she must be at an absolute disadvantage. There is only a small gap between masters' moves, and if one's hidden weapon foundation is mastered, one may be restrained by one move.
The master of Qin Palace said from the side: "Zhiruo, although you didn't do anything, you talked too much."
She blamed Wu Zhe so much. It was hard for Wu Zhe to continue watching. Instead, Xie Lao took the initiative to rush forward and said: "I still have purple topaz in this bag..."
She kept on introducing, and Wu Zhe murmured in his heart that he deserved to be the elder of the Three Sacred Sect, with so many hidden weapons.
Scorpion is always a moon-level saint, and he is more proficient in poisonous agents and small hidden weapon mechanisms. Such a display gave Wu Zhe a deeper understanding of her classics that she had read before.
Countless methods of using poison intermittently, as well as many experiences recorded in books, began to connect together in Wu Zhe's mind.
Seeing that Wu Zhe was reprimanded by the master of the piano, Mr. Xie packed his pockets and went back to the master of the piano to give the pill: "Sister, these two pills are a heartfelt wish. You don't want to refuse .”
"The war between the two countries may break out at any time. Didn't the masters of the Qi Kingdom come to attack the day before yesterday? These pills should be reserved for warriors who need them more." Palace Master Qin refused to accept them.
The two kept giving way again, Wu Zhe simply said: "Master, this disciple dares to say something."
The master of Qin palace said: "You girl, what more talk do you want?"
"Hey, master, Mr. Xie is here to send the elixir to complete a task. We can't let people fail to complete the task, right?" Wu Zhe said with something to say.
Old Xie's heart skipped a beat. How did this girl know
The master of Qin Palace frowned.
Wu Zhe continued: "Why don't you do this. Mr. Xie, you leave the elixir, and we will reluctantly accept some other gifts from you. For example, a few hidden weapons in your waist pocket, or elixirs are also fine. .”
"What?" Mr. Xie almost thought he heard it wrong: "I'll send you something, but you want me to pick up something?"
"It's nothing." Wu Zhe took it for granted: "We can help you complete the task, so we can't help for nothing, right?"
Old Scorpion grinned and choked.
Bad, this girl probably knows that Emperor Xuanwu asked me to bring the medicine.
"I'll take this pocket." Wu Zhe smiled and went to accept Old Xie's pocket.
"Presumptuous!" The master of Qin Palace scolded.
Mr. Xie didn't react, but the master of the Qin Palace stopped Wu Zhe's actions first.
Wu Zhe quickly and honestly stood up with hands tied.
"The villain is not disciplined strictly. You are making fun of me, Mr. Xie." The Master Qin stood up and apologized.
Mr. Xie hurriedly replied: "Where is it? If Gao Tusheng has a delicate heart, or is a little naughty and jokes with me, it doesn't get in the way."
He said that in his words, but he scolded in his heart: This dead girl. Want to take advantage of my old lady? Looking at the daughter-in-law here, if she can come in, she might eat and dig the ground to strip me clean, or she might be trampled underfoot.
When Mr. Xie thought of this, his thoughts of making Zhou Zhiruo his daughter-in-law greatly faded in his heart, and he stopped entangled in the children's affairs, forced the pill to the Qin Palace Master, and then left and ran outside.
"This..." Palace Master Qin took the pill and jade bottle in great embarrassment, and chased it out: "Old Xie, don't waste such a precious thing..."
"Just do me a favor!" Xie Lao fled in embarrassment, scolding Zhou Zhiruo in his heart for being such a vixen, why he couldn't hide anything from her.
Elder Xie went away as if fleeing, and left an excuse to give her face, which made the Master Qin even more astonished.
She turned to Wu Zhe: "Stubborn, you did a good job!"
Wu Zhe hurriedly pleaded guilty: "Master, that Xie always wants us to accept her gift of giving pills. It's fine for her hard work. But she still wants to take advantage of me in the private affairs of Duguluo. It’s unbearable to be cheap in terms of fame. How can it appear that our Yuan Healing Palace is not easy to mess with if you don’t want to squeeze her out with a few words?”
After hearing this, the master of Qin Palace opened his mouth to say something, but found that he was speechless.
She understood what Wu Zhe said.
That's right, Tu'er is now the Senior Sister of Yuan Healing Hall. Mr. Xie always said that he wanted to draw her into the entanglement of his son and daughter's love. Wouldn't it be disrespectful to Yuan Healing Hall
If it gets out that there is something wrong between Dugu Lao and Zhou Zhiruo, then wouldn't the hundreds of people in Yuanxiu Palace be laughed at by others
After all, the master of Qin Palace is a soft-hearted person, and he is very doting on his apprentice, the more he thinks about it, the more reasonable he is. However, in terms of etiquette, he still reprimanded: "Zhiruo, no matter what, Elder Xie is an elder after all. You must not be rude to her next time."
"Thank you, Master, for your generosity." Wu Zhe happily apologized, and ran to the Master of the Qin Palace to beat her back with a grin, "Master, please take this pill quickly to replenish the depleted vitality in your body."
"These two elixirs are so precious, don't waste them." Qin Palace Master shook his head: "And you are about to break through the moon stage, so it's better to leave it to you to replenish your vitality and break through the realm in one go at a critical moment."
Wu Zhe was moved, and quickly said: "Master, Emperor Xuanwu sent you this elixir for supplementation. He is waiting for you to treat his illness. If you don't take it, won't it delay the emperor's treatment?"
"Ah, so it was sent by the emperor?" Under Wu Zhe's reminder, the master of Qin Palace seemed to have realized something.
"Emperor Xuanwu was worried about whether we could cure heart failure, so..." Wu Zhe said his estimate again.
With such an explanation, the master of the Qin palace quickly understood: "So that's the case, the emperor is really..."
Blaming the emperor's words, she couldn't utter them, but she also felt that the emperor, who had always given people the impression of being wise, seemed to be a little too... suspicious? (To be continued..)
