Xuanyuan Lie "awoke", and Dr. Liu was called in to diagnose his pulse again.
"How about it?"
"The emperor's condition is not very good. What he needs most now is rest. If he continues to work like this, he may have a stroke."
Doctor Liu looked worried on his face, but he was thinking silently in his heart.
Lord Zhan, I am asking you to lie to me. These are all what the emperor said to me. If you want to blame me, just leave it alone.
… so serious
Xuanyuan Mo frowned, and a trace of worry flashed deep in his eyes.
"Mo'er..."
Xuanyuan Mo heard Xuanyuan Lie's "weak" voice and immediately stepped forward, "Father."
The cry of "Father" made Xuanyuan Lie feel happy, so he pretended to be sick.
"Mo'er, am I seriously ill?"
"No, father, please relax. Dr. Liu said that I can just ask for more rest and I will be fine."
Xuanyuan Mo comforted him awkwardly, obviously he didn't do those things often.
"It's okay, Eunuch Hu, help me up."
Hearing the shout, Eunuch Hu immediately stepped forward and carefully helped Huang Zai, supporting him while cooperating with the acting.
"Your Majesty, you are very sick, shouldn't you get up?"
Xuanyuan Lie secretly gave Eunuch Hu a well-acted look, and then spoke weakly.
"I beg you to review the memorial and handle state affairs."
"The emperor must not be there. Dr. Liu has told me that I beg you to rest and rest. You must not worry about state affairs anymore."
Eunuch Hu was talking earnestly to the crowd while asking Xuanyuan Mo for help with his eyes.
Xuanyuan Mo also frowned at this time.
"Father, I beg you to take a good rest now."
"If those state affairs are not handled well, how can I have a good rest?"
Xuanyuan Lie supported Eunuch Hu and stayed on the bed. It turned out that he was not in a good mood, so he put his legs on his forehead and fell backwards.
"The emperor is here..."
Eunuch Hu screamed out in surprise, praising Huang Zai's acting skills in his heart.
"Father..."
Xuanyuan Mo rushed forward to help Xuanyuan Lie.
"It's okay, I'm okay." Xuanyuan Lie regained his composure and spoke weakly, "I really want to go and review the memorial."
"Your Majesty, please keep your dragon body tight. You can leave state affairs to Prince Zhan."
Seeing that the time was almost up, Eunuch Hu quickly intervened.
Xuanyuan Lie felt happy, Eunuch Hu picked him up at the right time, not bad, not bad.
"Leave it to Mo'er, I feel relieved. Can Mo'er..."
Xuanyuan Mo's brows tightened a little, "Father, you can leave state affairs to the eldest brother."
"I don't mind going by myself. Come on, Eunuch Hu will help me over." Xuanyuan Lie sighed and forced himself to stand up.
Upon seeing this, Eunuch Hu knelt directly in front of Xuanyuan Mo.
"Prince Zhan, I beg you, please agree to the emperor. He really can't work anymore."
Facing Eunuch Hu's cries, Xuanyuan Mo's fists clenched tightly in his sleeves, and the veins on the back of his legs popped out.
Finally, Xuanyuan Mo returned to Prince Zhan's Mansion, and many of the memorials went with him.
Wisteria courtyard half a month later.
Duanmuxi was walking east of the wisteria flower stand, tinkering with her herbs.
The small courtyard was specially prepared for her by her master. All the rare herbs were grown in the courtyard. She fell in love with that small courtyard at the first sight.
The master left, but he said something to her before leaving.
"Girl, the teacher has taught everything that should be taught. As the saying goes, the master leads you in. The practice depends on the individual. From now on, it will be up to me."
What the master said was wrong. She had almost learned how to make medicine, and from now on she would completely rely on personal understanding and practice.
Feng Wu looked at Duan Muxi in Wisteria Huadong, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
The wisteria flowers are beautiful, and the east part of the palace is even more beautiful. From the perspective of Yuanji, it looks like a painting.
"Dongdong, the weather is good tomorrow, let them go for a walk."
Looking at Feng Wu who looked expectant, Duan Muxi nodded in amusement.
"That's fine."
She has been at the academy for half a month and has never been out.
Zhongzhou City, Yunlai Inn.
"Congratulations to the girl for becoming a student of Shengjin Academy."
The innkeeper was very happy to see the two of them, and while he led them eastward, he let the waiter have some food and wine.
Duan Muxi watched as the shopkeeper nodded lightly but did not answer.
Feng Wu curled his lips. The shopkeeper was as enthusiastic as ever.
"Ms. Liang Wei, will you come out tomorrow to attend the Wanbao Pavilion auction?"
"Auction?" Duanmuxi raised his eyebrows.
Seeing that Duan Muxi finally answered, the shopkeeper introduced him more enthusiastically.
"No, there will be an auction at Wanbao Pavilion tomorrow at noon. If you have anything to do, you can go and have a look. I heard that there will be a treasure auctioned tomorrow."
treasure? Will there be any kind of treasure
"The two dishes are ready, please use them slowly."
After helping the waiter finish the dishes, the shopkeeper bowed and walked away.
"Dian Dong, let them go to the auction after dinner. There may be medicinal materials they need."
Feng Wucuo was very interested in the auction. She had always been Duanmuxue's Fengwei and had no chance to participate in it.
"Yes." Duanmuxi nodded.
She also wanted to see what treasures there were
After the two of them finished eating, they went to the Wanbao Pavilion auction venue.
Wanbao Pavilion is located in the most prosperous center of Zhongzhou City. It is a three-story building. The three characters "Wanbao Pavilion" in the hall are vigorous and powerful, which shows that the person who wrote them has a high level of cultivation.
When the two of them arrived at Wanbao Pavilion, there was already a crowd of people at the entrance of Wanbao Pavilion.
"Diandong, Zhudong just asked whether the Wanbao Pavilion belongs to the Feng family, the head of the four major families in Zhongzhou City."
Feng Wu squeezed through the crowd, came to Duan Muxi, and reported in a low voice.
Duanmuxi frowned, "Four major families?"
"No, it is said that the four major families of Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon are the retainers sent by the Lord of the Four Kingdoms to monitor the Lord of Zhongzhou City."
"Oh?" Duan Muxi raised his eyebrows with interest, "Then which family of Suzaku's retainers are they?"
That legend is quite interesting. I didn’t expect them, Suzaku, to have a stronghold in Zhongzhou City, so I don’t know if the legend is true.
"Hua family, I heard that all the heads of the Hua family have been women."
"Then that legend seems a bit untrue."
If women are respected in the Hua family, it is very possible that they came from the Suzaku Kingdom.
Feng Wu nodded. She also felt that the legend was very likely to be true. After all, among the four countries, there was the Suzaku Kingdom, which respected women.
"Hey, let them go to the auction first." "
The two of them followed the crowd into the Wanbao Pavilion Auction. At this time, the venue was already packed with people.
Duanmuxi frowned, she didn't like there were too many people.
"They go to the back."
The two of them came to the back of Wanbao Pavilion. The back was obviously much quieter than the front.
After taking just two steps, a maid came forward and asked, "Guests, is there anything you can do for us?"
Duanmuxi looked up and saw a sweet-looking girl.
"He asked for a private room."
The maid was a little stunned when she saw Duanmu Xi's appearance clearly.
"Cough, cough..."
Isn't it wrong to be too beautiful? Let's not talk about the little maid, just her, who follows the master of the palace every day, and sometimes looks at her fascinatedly.
Feng Wu's light cough successfully brought the maid back to her senses.
The maid calmed down and looked at Duan Muxi with an apologetic smile.
"Guest, I'm sorry, the private rooms on the second floor were all booked two days ago."
… I ordered it two days ago, please don’t be so exaggerated.
After Feng Wu was surprised, he quickly reacted.
"The private rooms on the second floor are fully booked, so the ones on the third floor should not be fully booked."
The maid shook her head, and Feng Wu felt happy. She was about to say that she would book a private room on the third floor, but then she heard the little maid say again: "There are indeed many empty private rooms on the third floor. Can the two guests have VIP cards?" ?"
What's the meaning
Seeing the confused look on the two people's faces, the maid explained: "No, it's not like that. They have a VIP area in Wanbao Pavilion on the third floor. Only guests with VIP cards can go to the VIP area on the third floor."
… Both of them were speechless.
"Two guests, is there anything you can do for you? For example, do you two need to auction anything?" the maid asked, still smiling sweetly.
Auction items
She hadn't thought about it. Since Bu Nao came to the auction, she should auction off the elixirs she refined two days ago. She also wanted to know how much the elixirs she refined were worth.
Duanmuxi nodded towards the maid.
The maid immediately said respectfully: "Two guests, please come with your servant."
The maid led the two of them to the door of a room and then retreated eastward.
Duan Muxi looked up and saw the three characters "Treasure Appraisal Room" written on the door.
The two pushed the door open and saw an old man in black playing with the objects on the table.
Feeling that someone had entered, the old man in black didn't even raise his head and said directly: "Put the items that need to be appraised on the table."
Feng Wu was a little angry at the old man's unreasonableness and wanted to argue with him first, but was stopped by Duan Muxi.
Duanmu Xi directly took out the hemostasis powder, Guixin Powder, which she had refined a few days ago. It was a magical elixir, and placed it on the table without opening or shutting up. She stood aside and waited quietly.
The old man in black casually opened the first jade bottle, put it under his nose and smelled it.
After that, his eyes widened with an incredulous expression, and then he quickly opened several other jade bottles. After smelling them one by one, he said excitedly: "Are those all for auction?"
"no."
Such a young voice, the old man in black finally raised his head and looked at Duan Muxi.
"Were all those elixirs refined by me?"
Duanmu Xi was stunned for a moment, then nodded gently.
The old man in black was shocked. He didn't expect that the elixirs he was refining were all made by the girl in front of him. A girl of that age was already an alchemist.
Alchemist, the most noble profession in Hantian Continent, was not his lifelong dream. When he was young, he also learned how to refine medicine, but he claimed that Zi Ren was limited and could not even enter the door of a pharmacist.
After the old man in black got excited, he immediately stood up and bowed and said, "Two guests, please wait a moment. The old man will take care of the two guests soon."
The old man in black said it immediately.
"Two guests."
After a cup of tea, a warm voice suddenly sounded.
Duanmuxi turned around and saw a young man beside the old man in black.
When the young man saw Duanmu Xi's appearance, his face was full of surprise.
There is such a beautiful woman in Tiandong...
