The beautiful black eyes were colored with emotion, which was much more agile than the dead look before. Jing Shao just smiled at him and wanted to tell him that he didn't have to be so timid, but then he thought about it, because he refused to listen to him in his previous life. If he said that, he was arrogant and arrogant, and finally ended up in a tragic end where the wall fell and everyone pushed him, and he couldn't help but hold back his smile.
"My lord, the Meridian Gate is here." The little eunuch Chunxi said outside the sedan chair, and then the sedan chair also stopped. Usually, the sedan chair can go to the palace, but today, to meet the emperor in the Queen's Palace, the two have to get off the sedan chair at the Meridian Gate and change the chariot in the palace. The chariot was surrounded by palace servants, so the two of them stopped talking.
Emperor Hongzheng, who came down to court, went to the Empress's Luanyi Palace, and sat in the main hall with Empress Wu, waiting for the newcomer to come and meet. Emperor Hongzheng, who was in his forties, was in his prime. He possessed the calmness and wisdom of a qualified emperor, and he had an imperious aura of not being angry and arrogant while sitting there.
Looking at his father, who was ten years younger, Jing Shao's hand hidden in Yuebai's sleeve clenched into a fist, then slowly loosened it, and together with Mu Hanzhang, respectfully saluted the emperor.
Emperor Hongzheng first praised Jing Shao, and then taught him a few words: "You are an adult now, so you need to think more about what you say and do in the future, don't let me hear about things like lifting your mother's tea table. "
"Erchen understands, thank your father for his teachings." Jing Shao responded lightly, but his face was full of dissatisfaction.
"On this happy day, the emperor should stop blaming him," the queen naturally took everything in her eyes, and hurriedly smiled and said, "I'm seeing my daughter-in-law today."
There was a maid next to the emperor who had already put a cushion in front of the empress. Mu Hanzhang knelt down, kowtowed to Emperor Hongzheng, and then held tea over his head: "Father, please use tea." Full of elegance.
Emperor Hongzheng took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "The second son of the Mu Jin family, I didn't expect to be such a handsome person." After speaking, he rewarded him with a pair of mutton fat jade.
"Thank you, father and emperor." Mu Hanzhang thanked him without being humble or arrogant, and then knelt down in front of the queen to serve tea.
The queen smiled and accepted it, not in a hurry to get him up, but turned her head to chat with the emperor: "Your Majesty, the second son of the Mu family was chosen at the age of seventeen. He said 'Young Master Wen Yuan'."
"Is that so?" Emperor Hongzheng was interested now. At the age of seventeen, Zhongju was a rare and intelligent young man. He used to see only the heir of the Northern Weihou family. The hidden pearl can't help but feel a little pity. If such a person can participate in the exam, he must be a talent and a good tool to rule the North Weihou, what a pity.
"It's just a joke from a few childhood playmates. It can't be true." Mu Hanzhang knelt for a long time, and his body became more and more uncomfortable, and his face began to turn pale, but his body was still kneeling upright. Remind the two that he was still kneeling.
"Yo, why is this child looking so bad?" The queen said and glanced at Jing Shao on the side. Seeing that he didn't seem to have any reaction, and he didn't mean to help Mu Hanzhang out of the siege, she narrowed her eyes and smiled. He handed Mu Hanzhang an open brocade box. Anyone can see that the jewels in the box are invaluable.
Mu Hanzhang looked at such a heavy greeting and remembered what Jing Shao said in the sedan chair, so he took it without hesitation. Step forward to help.
"If you feel unwell, you should go back earlier." Emperor Hongzheng waved his hand to indicate that they could leave.
Mu Hanzhang refused the palace maid's continued support, and Jing Shao ignored him and walked out after salute. God knows how much he wants to hold Jun Qing in his arms and not let him take a step, but he is still in the palace, only Can pretend to be impatient with a cold face.
After leaving the palace gate, Mu Hanzhang stepped out of the chariot, looked at the indifferent back who was striding forward, and laughed at himself, what was he expecting? Sure enough, that short-lived tenderness is an illusion
I tried to keep up, but before I took two steps, I suddenly fell forward as soon as my eyes darkened. There was no unexpected pain, and my body fell into a warm embrace: "Junqing, what's the matter with you?" I opened my eyes again and saw what I saw. It was Jing Shao's anxious face.
Seeing him faint, Jing Shao quickly took the man into his arms and quickly walked into the sedan chair: "Chunxi, you go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Imperial Doctor Jiang Huan Jiang to come to the palace, get up from the sedan and return to the palace immediately."
"Yes!" The bearers got up in response, while Chunxi trotted all the way to the Taiyuan Hospital.
"Junqing, Junqing? How uncomfortable is it? Huh?" Jing Shao leaned the man in his arms against his chest and touched his forehead, "Why do you have a fever?"
Mu Hanzhang was only silent, this person was so unpredictable that he was hot and cold, and the regretful look in the emperor's eyes today made his heart hurt. I felt uncomfortable in my body and sad in my heart. I just felt disheartened and lazy, and my consciousness became more and more lethargic.
"Guan Shao'er's appearance seems to be dissatisfied with the marriage arranged by the concubine." After the two left, the queen said with an embarrassed face.
"He is still young, so he can't understand the Queen's painstaking efforts, but this child has a true temperament." Emperor Hongzheng was very satisfied, and Jing Shao's reflection just now was clear, and he showed his dissatisfaction and dislike. If he still looks grateful for his inheritance rights, that city government is too deep.
Back at the palace, Jing Shao ran into the house with the person in his arms: "Bring the cold handkerchief."
Covered Mu Hanzhang with a quilt, took the handkerchief that Zhixi handed over and put it on his forehead.
"Junqing, do you feel bad?" Jing Shao looked at him distressedly. In the last life, Mu Hanzhang's health was getting worse and worse. In the last few years, he took medicine as his meal. This time, he should take care of it carefully. , it is good to keep him healthy.
"I'm fine, don't you want to go to the Second Prince's Mansion? Don't delay." After struggling to get up, Jing Shao held him down.
"I have already sent someone to tell my brother, and he won't blame him." Although he felt that he should go to his brother's place, etiquette was one aspect, and more importantly, to prevent him from misunderstanding, but Jing Shao felt that these were not for Junqing. The body is important, my brother will go back and explain it later.
"My lord, the imperial physician is here." Zhi Xi came in to report.
Imperial Physician Jiang was not the highest in the Imperial Hospital. Although his medical skills were good, he never imagined that King Cheng would call him to see a doctor at his residence. Obviously, there was no interaction before.
"This..." Imperial Physician Jiang took a pulse and looked at Mu Hanzhang's face, looking at Jing Shao with some embarrassment.
Jing Shao knowingly asked the servants to retreat: "It's okay for the imperial physician to say it."
"Looking at Wang Fei's pulse, it must be caused by injuries and depression," Jiang Taiyi glanced at Jing Shao again. This kind of fever is not a serious illness. It must be meaningful for King Cheng to come to him today, so he continued. , "Forgive the old minister to say bluntly, although the princess is a man, men are actually more vulnerable than women in sexual intercourse. It is better for the prince to have pity."
The words made Mu Hanzhang flushed, and Jing Shao touched his nose embarrassedly: "It's this king Meng Lang."
"My lord, forgive me." Jiang Taiyi was also a little uneasy, not knowing whether his remarks fit the king's mind.
"Haha, this king likes the straightforwardness of Imperial Doctor Jiang." After taking the prescription handed over by Imperial Doctor Jiang, Jing Shao took out a string of coral beads from his sleeve.
"My lord, this is impossible." Jiang Taiyi immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He has always paid attention to moderation and did not want to participate in the disputes between these princes and grandsons.
"This isn't for you," Jing Shao said impatiently when he saw that he didn't answer, "I heard that Linglang is very skilled in martial arts, and he has won the martial arts this year. This is a gift for Linglang." Red coral beads can avoid blood, it is true It was sent to people who practice martial arts, and Imperial Physician Jiang could not refuse any more. Besides, the prince meant that he liked his son, so he could rest assured.
"That being the case, the old minister will thank the prince for the reward on behalf of the dog, and let him come to the door to thank him another day." After hearing this, Imperial Physician Jiang put away the coral beads and said goodbye.
Jing Shao asked Duofu to send the imperial doctor away, and then he sat back by the bed and changed the veil on Mu Hanzhang's forehead.
"Let the maid do these things, the lord, let's go and rest." Mu Hanzhang said lightly, this man's tenderness may just be new and fun, but in fact it is not really good to him, whether a person is sincere or not Just looking at the details, it can be seen that the actions in the palace today made his heart that had just warmed up frozen into ice.
"Junqing?" Jing Shao returned to his indifference when he saw the people who had loosened up in the morning. He thought it was something in the palace that made him sad. He was always impatient and talked a lot. , It seems that there is more to talk about in the future, scratching his head in embarrassment, sighing, "Today in the palace, I made you wronged."
Mu Hanzhang opened his eyes and looked at him, this person actually knew
"I just kneel for a while. I'm not a woman. I won't feel wronged because of my mother-in-law's disapproval. The lord is more worried." Angry.
"People in the capital all laugh at me, saying that I have made great achievements but cannot inherit the great lineage. As a direct son, the status of the first prince is not as high as that of a palace maid..." Jing Shao said these words mockingly. I have been in my heart for more than ten years, and now I say it, it really comes from the bottom of my heart.
Mu Hanzhang's hand hidden under the quilt gradually tightened, and the more he listened, the colder his heart became. Sure enough, he was not drunk at all last night, and everything was just torturing him: "These ministers all know that the ministers do not ask the prince to say goodbye. Yes, I just hope that when the lord becomes famous, he can reward his ministers with a letter of divorce."
