Xiao Bailian was overjoyed after taking the medicine, thanked Yan Shi and Qu Liushang again and again, Qu Liushang explained some matters to him, then bid farewell to everyone and left Prince Rui's Mansion.
Unexpectedly, before reaching the gate of the Gao Mansion, he saw that familiar figure from a distance, Xiao Bailian stopped his steps, Gao Changgeng saw him back long ago, sighed and stepped forward to meet him.
Xiao Bailian walked slowly side by side with him, finally Xiao Bailian couldn't help asking: "Why didn't you ask me where I went?"
Gao Changgeng sighed: "I know you went to Prince Rui's residence. From now on... you must tell me immediately if you have any health conditions."
A few days later, an ordinary-looking carriage drove into the imperial city in a low-key manner, and stopped in front of the gate of Prince Rui's Mansion.
Three middle-aged men and a dying old man got off the carriage.
"Father, we're here." One of the middle-aged men said, and then he revealed his identity to the doorman.
The concierge didn't dare to neglect after hearing this, and hurried into the mansion to report.
The four people who came were none other than Hualing's grandfather and three uncles who had been imprisoned by Wuman Kingdom for more than ten years. When Wei Shuo and the third prince entered the capital of the Wuman Kingdom, they rescued the four of them. Originally, they wanted to let them meet Hua Ling quickly, but Marshal Qin refused.
Originally all-powerful and majestic Pingchang Hou has been tortured by the Wuman Kingdom for more than ten years. Marquis Pingchang had his own pride, he didn't want to see Hualing in such a bad state, so he raised his three sons in southern Xinjiang for a period of time before leaving for the imperial city.
But at this time, Pyeongchang Hou was very thin and weak, and his complexion was actually not very good-looking. It is conceivable how tortured he has been before.
When Hua Ling heard that her grandfather and three uncles had finally arrived, she hurried out of the mansion immediately.
When Pyeongchang Hou's accident happened, Hua Ling hadn't been born yet, so this was the first time the two met. Perhaps it was because of the blood relationship, the moment Hua Ling saw the four of them, her eyes turned red, and she immediately knelt down on the ground and gave them a big gift.
"Get up quickly, good boy, get up quickly." Ping Changhou stretched out his hands like dead wood to support Hua Ling.
After Hua Ling got up, Marquis Ping Chang brought his three sons and knelt down to Hua Ling slowly: "The old minister brought his three sons to see Princess Rui."
Hua Ling hurriedly helped them up, and led them to the mansion.
Hua Ling of Pingchang Marquis Mansion had already ordered someone to clean it up, but he didn't intend to let them go out immediately, and wanted them to temporarily stay in Prince Rui's Mansion.
After arriving in the mansion, Hua Ling had no choice but to watch these four people carefully, especially seeing Ping Changhou's appearance, her heart was very sad, she hurriedly called Qu Liushang, and asked him to treat them.
Qu Liushang had checked the pulses of several people one by one. Although the three uncles were deficient in health, they were fine. They would be fine after taking some medicine and taking care of them for a while. On the contrary, Hou Pingchang's health is very bad, and his insides are hollowed out, but fortunately, there is not nothing to do, and he can gradually get better with careful recuperation.
Hua Ling was talking to the four of them here, when a servant girl came over with the baby in her arms, saying that His Royal Highness was crying so much, maybe she was looking for the princess.
Hua Ling took the baby distressedly, and the baby stopped crying immediately when he saw his father, but twitched a few times in his father's arms aggrievedly.
Marquis Pingchang immediately stood up from his chair: "This, is your Highness?"
"Yeah, grandpa, give me a hug too." Hua Ling kissed her son on the face, and told him not to cry, regardless of whether she could understand it or not, and handed him over to Marquis Pingchang. superior.
Hou Pingchang had never held such a soft little dumpling before. Although the baby was not very heavy, Hou Pingchang felt that he was as heavy as a thousand catties, and held him stiffly in his arms, not daring to move.
The baby was surprisingly obedient, and giggled as he looked at Pingchanghou.
Seeing this, the eldest uncle hurriedly said: "It is said that if a child smiles at an old man, the old man will live a long life. Your Highness is not comparable to those common people. If he smiles, Dad's health will definitely recover soon. " When the uncle said this, everyone present laughed and dispersed
After a long time of repressed atmosphere, Hou Pingchang is not so nervous, and he can also tease him a few times by looking at the baby.
Unexpectedly, after a while, Pingchang Hou felt a warm current in his body, and suddenly yelled in a low voice, which scared Hua Ling into thinking that something was wrong with him. But then everyone saw a stream of water meandering from Pingchang Hou's skirt to his thigh.
"This kid can't help boasting, just now he pissed all over me." Ping Changhou joked.
Hua Ling took the baby with a helpless expression, put him on the bed, took off his clothes, and patted his round buttocks lightly: "It's so embarrassing."
Not only did the baby not feel conscious of being beaten, but he thought his father was playing with him, and started giggling happily again.
After Hua Ling tidied him up, the uncle wanted to hug him too, so the baby fell into the uncle's arms again.
Marquis Pingchang's spirit was exhausted after all, and he felt tired after sitting for a while. Just as Hua Ling was about to help him to rest on the bed, a servant came to report that the prince had returned.
Marquis Pingchang immediately shivered, and the tiredness on Cai Cai's face just now had disappeared. Hua Ling knew that he was trying to hold on. People like them respected the members of the Tian family, especially Yan Shi's status as the eldest son. From their point of view, it was a certainty that Yan Shi would become the throne in the future.
As soon as Yan Shi stepped into the room, Marquis Pingchang and the three uncles fell to their knees, causing Hua Ling to neither stand nor kneel.
"Please get up quickly, please get up quickly." Yan Shi hurriedly helped Ping Changhou to get him up.
Marquis Pingchang and the others stood up, feeling a little cramped, not like the ones with Hua Lingshi just now.
At this time, the baby saw the other daddy coming back, screamed, and stretched out two short and fat arms to be hugged by him.
Hua Ling patted her son's chubby butt again: "Little heartless, I coax you every day, your father will not want me when you come back."
The baby didn't know if he understood or not, so he kicked Hua Ling with his little foot.
Yan Shi didn't stay long and left, and he could tell that they were very nervous when he was here.
In the evening, everyone sat together and had a meal. After the meal, the three uncles returned to Pingchanghou's mansion, and only Pingchanghou stayed.
The next day, Yan Shi brought the four of them into the palace.
Emperor Chongjin, who had not been in court for a long time, came to court again.
Seeing Pingchanghou's current appearance, some veteran officials burst into tears.
Emperor Chongjin was also infected by this atmosphere, and his nose was a little sour.
Then, Emperor Chongjin said something to comfort them and gave them many rewards. The southern border is now guarded by Marshal Wei, and Marquis Pingchang cannot go back, nor can he go back with his current body. Emperor Chongjin asked him to take care of him well, but his three sons had nothing to do. Emperor Chongjin thought about it, and sent the eldest uncle to the patrol camp, the second uncle to the imperial army, and the third uncle to the imperial city to defend the city. . Pingchang Hou's family devoted themselves to Da Yuan and endured so many years of suffering, it is understandable for Emperor Chong Jin to do so. If not, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of those old ministers.
But he was also faintly worried that Yan Shi's power would be too strong, so he didn't transfer them to a distant military camp, but just watched them under his nose.
King Zhao wanted to speak, but was stopped by the people around him, and finally had to swallow his breath.
After leaving court, King Zhao and the minister who stopped him just now walked slowly behind. King Zhao saw that there was no one there, so he asked, "Master Zhao, why didn't you let me say it just now?"
Master Zhao replied: "The Marquis of Pingchang's family was originally a military officer, but this time they have encountered hardships. Even if the emperor didn't let them stay in the imperial city, they would definitely be sent to other places. His Highness can't stop this. Blocking is against the emperor."
King Zhao nodded: "Lord Zhao is very reasonable, this king almost ruined the big thing just now. This is what we should do now? Seeing that Prince Rui's power is gradually expanding, it is very bad for us." King Mu is finished, King Zhao originally wanted to bring over the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War that he had mastered before, but for some reason, none of them succeeded. King Zhao thought that all these were taken back by Emperor Chongjin, although it was a pity
, but it is not so unacceptable. Little did they know, all these fell into Yan Shi's hands.
Now, the remaining five departments belong to Yan Shi, and only one household department is still in the hands of King Zhao.
Mr. Zhao said: "This matter still needs to go back to the government to discuss carefully."
The counselors supported by King Zhao also frowned when they heard the news. The situation is not optimistic now. All the counselors were discussing countermeasures noisily, and suddenly a goatee said: "My lord, don't you think that Mr. Qingyue next to Prince Rui looks like a person?"
"Like who?" Zhao Wang frowned and thought carefully, but he didn't think of anyone.
Goat Hu smiled: "It's normal for the prince not to know, after all, the prince was still young when that happened. But I'm not sure whether that Jiang Qingyue has anything to do with that person, so I need to check it out." .If these two people really have any relationship, not only Jiang Qingyue can't escape death, even Prince Rui can't escape the relationship."
King Zhao was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked the goat to talk nonsense about what was going on. But the goatee bowed his ears in front of King Zhao, and only spoke to him, and the more King Zhao heard it, the expression on his face grew bigger and bigger, as if he had already put Yan Shi to death.
Besides, Yan Shi's place was full of fun, but seeing Emperor Chong Jin's face today seemed to be worse than before, and he wanted to know what was going on with him. Yan Shi mentioned it to Emperor Chongjin once, asking Qu Liushang to show him. But Emperor Chongjin thought that his disease could not be cured even by an imperial doctor, and Qu Liushang was just a wild doctor who walked in the rivers and lakes, so he refused.
After hearing this, Hua Ling said: "This is easy to handle, let Qu Liushang visit the palace at night to have a look."
There are so many imperial guards in the palace, and no one will come and leave as soon as they say it, in case Qu Liushang is caught.
Hua Ling patted her chest: "I'll go with Qu Liushang."
