Chapter 44
The prime minister rushed to the prime minister's residence with six imperial doctors.
On Li Ningyun's side, Xun Qingyi looked at Li Ningyun hesitantly, wanting to say something.
I felt a little surprised and confused.
According to the plot, the second male lead should still like the female lead.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been so anxious when I heard the news that the heroine was sick.
Thinking of this, Xun Qingyi subconsciously looked at the male protagonist Fu Liangping who was as steady as an old dog.
What's going on with this old fox?
His wife is sick, how can he sit so calmly?
Oh! When I think about it, the second male lead is still the better emperor.
Gentle, considerate, and affectionate.
The heroine is really blind.
Li Ningyun looked at Xun Qingyi, who was already daydreaming.
He cleared his throat and said, "Ahem! Ms. Xun, how are the preparations for the auction plan you mentioned earlier going?"
Xun Qingyi came back to her senses and smiled at Li Ningyun, saying, "Your Majesty, thanks to the help of the Regent, everything is ready and we can start tomorrow."
Li Ningyun nodded: "Okay, you two can do whatever you want."
"Oh~" Li Ningyun frowned and pretended to sigh.
Xun Qingyi was very understanding and asked with concern, "Your Majesty, is there anything bothering you?"
Li Ningyun rubbed his temples. With a hint of annoyance, he spoke, "I've been so worried about the victims these past few days that I haven't been able to rest. I've been thinking, what if there was something we could use to build a dam, like a wall—extremely strong and waterproof? We could then build a high wall around the area where flooding often occurs. That way, even if there's a bigger flood in the future, the wall won't cover such a large area."
Fu Liangping looked at Li Ningyun in surprise.
What's wrong with the emperor today?
He has never been a person who likes to complain, so why is he acting so abnormally today?
Li Ningyun noticed Fu Liangping's gaze and gave him a wink.
Although Fu Liangping didn't understand what Li Ningyun meant, he continued, "Your Majesty is right. If it's really as Your Majesty said, then we can also use this material to build city walls. That way, we don't have to worry about enemy attacks on the border, and the people living on the border can live a more stable life."
Li Ningyun gave Fu Liangping a thumbs up in his heart.
I have to say, as expected of the male lead, this little head of his is filled with evil… Ugh! Wisdom! It’s wisdom!!
After hearing what Li Ningyun said, Xun Qingyi fell into deep thought: The emperor is talking about... I seem to know him?
Not sure…let’s listen again.
Hmm~ It’s confirmed, it’s cement.
She knows the answer to this question.
She actually knows how cement is made.
Xun Qingyi's heart leaped with joy.
She feels very happy as long as she can help the second male lead!
But Xun Qingyi didn't say it. She planned to ask Fu Liangping for raw materials and manpower when she went out later.
Once it’s done, I’ll give the emperor a little surprise.
Hehe~
Li Ningyun has been paying attention to the expression on Xun Qingyi's face.
This girl is just silly, and everything in her heart is written on her face.
Now seeing the look on her face, Li Ningyun knew.
It’s settled!
So she kicked him out without any hesitation.
"Okay, both of you stop standing here and go do what you need to do."
After the two left, Li Ningyun began to review the memorials again with great difficulty.
The Prime Minister rushed back to the Prime Minister's Mansion with six imperial doctors.
I saw Murong Xue, who was no longer in pain but still extremely weak.
"My dear daughter, what happened to you?" The prime minister stepped forward and asked with great concern.
"I've asked the Emperor to lend me six doctors to see you. Don't worry, everything will be fine."
Murong Xue nodded weakly: "Dad, I don't feel any pain now, don't worry."
The Prime Minister nodded: "Okay, okay, then let the imperial physician take a look at you."
After the Prime Minister finished speaking, six imperial physicians stepped forward and began to take Murong Xue's pulse one by one.
But without exception, nothing was found.
I asked what the patient had eaten when he became ill, but I didn't get anything useful out of him.
I just learned that the pain started right after I had breakfast and lunch.
The imperial physicians all agreed that it was caused by the inappropriate food consumed.
So the six of them discussed it and decided to prescribe Murong Xue a decoction to strengthen her spleen and stimulate her appetite.
The little maid quickly helped to boil the medicine and handed it to Murong Xue.
Six old doctors stood by and watched as Murong Xue drank the medicine, and then she instantly bent like a shrimp.
He rolled over in bed in pain.
The six people were shocked when they saw this.
He hurried forward to help Murong Xue take her pulse again.
But no matter how they feel the pulse.
He even almost broke Murong Xue's wrist, but didn't notice any problems.
this……
"Prime Minister, please forgive me for being unable to help. Your daughter's condition is completely new to us, and her pulse is difficult to diagnose. I will take my leave now."
"I'll take my leave now."
The six imperial doctors left in shame without waiting for the prime minister to speak.
Prime Minister: “…”
No...leaving now?
Stop working hard?
I think there is still hope for my daughter's treatment.
How about you take a look?
The Prime Minister shook his handkerchief inwardly and shouted anxiously, "Please stay, doctors. How about you take a closer look at me?"
Upon hearing this, the six imperial doctors walked faster.
They are still clear about their own medical skills.
How can we cure the disease if we can’t even find the cause?
When the Prime Minister saw this, he knew that he could no longer keep him.
He sighed and looked at Murong Xue: "My daughter, don't be afraid. I will go to the palace and ask His Majesty to lend me a few more doctors."
After the Prime Minister finished speaking, he went straight to the palace.
When the six imperial doctors returned to the palace to report to the emperor, the prime minister also arrived shortly afterwards.
Li Ningyun learned that the imperial physician was unable to diagnose the condition.
Looking at the prime minister who came hurriedly, he readily borrowed a few more.
Then, just as Murong Xue's abdominal pain had eased, she drank another bowl of medicine.
Murong Xue was in excruciating pain again.
When the imperial physician was still helpless.
Murong Xue discovered the problem.
As soon as I eat, I will have unbearable abdominal pain.
But I know where the problem lies, but I don’t know why it happened or how to solve it.
You can't just stop eating and drinking water from now on, right?
The imperial doctors were also powerless.
The prime minister had no choice but to ask his servants to look for famous doctors everywhere.
Even so, Murong Xue continued to lose weight.
At the beginning, I only had unbearable abdominal pain when eating.
By the third day, Murong Xue's whole body was emitting a rotten smell.
From the beginning, it was barely there, but later the whole house was filled with the pungent smell of decay.
At first, I didn't know where it came from until Murong Xue opened her mouth to speak.
The Prime Minister and others then realized that the smell came from Murong Xue's mouth.
This is terrible!
The prime minister once again asked the imperial physician to come and help take the patient's pulse.
This time the imperial physician diagnosed it.
He looked at the Prime Minister in shock and said, "Prime Minister, Miss Murong's internal organs have already rotted."
The Prime Minister was shocked: "What did you say?"
How is this possible? How can a living person's internal organs rot?
Murong Xue's eyes flickered when she heard the news.
Is it because I was reborn?
So that's why your body will rot?
The imperial physician nodded solemnly, "Yes, Lord Prime Minister, I'm afraid Miss Murong's health won't last much longer."
Murong Xue, who was completely unable to move at this moment, had a look of unwillingness in her eyes.
She hadn't yet avenged herself and the Prime Minister's Mansion, so how could she lose her life like this?
Then what is the purpose of my rebirth this time?
Murong Xue roared in her heart.
But no one could hear the voice in her heart.
She could only lie in bed in pain, enduring the torture of intestinal perforation and abdominal distension every day.
It was not until three months later that the last piece of flesh on her body began to rot, except for her head, which was still intact.
That night, she saw someone she never expected appear in her room.
The maid who had been serving her and waiting for her to take her last breath fell asleep on the table at some point.
Murong Xue looked at the man in front of her, her eyes fixed as if she had thought of something, staring at him intently.
Li Ningyun chuckled: "What? Miss Murong, don't you recognize me? It was you who personally served the poisoned wine that killed me."
Murong Xue's eyes widened when she heard this.
He was indeed reborn just like himself!
Li Ningyun continued with a smile, "Now I'll let you taste the taste of this poison. I think you should be very happy, right? After all, this poison was prepared specially for you."
Murong Xue was shocked.
When did you take the poison?
I didn't even touch a drop of the tea he gave me!
Li Ningyun said in a frivolous tone, "It's funny. At first, I wanted you to drink the tea with the pills in it, but you refused to drink it. You probably didn't know that the pills in the tea could actually cure the poison in your body.
What a pity~"
Anyway, Murong Xue didn't know whether what she said was true or not, so she just said whatever made her happy.
She's so mad!
Murong Xue: "..."
"But it's too late to say this now. I'm here to see you off for the last time."
Murong Xue stared unwillingly at Li Ningyun with hatred.
If I could do it again...
She must kill the man in front of her with her own hands!
With strong resentment and resentment.
Murong Xue took her last breath, but her eyes were still wide open.
Die with eyes open!
Li Ningyun clicked his tongue twice, glanced at the skeleton on the bed, and decisively returned to the palace.
Three days later, Xun Qingyi and Fu Liangping came to the imperial study.
This auction has been completed.
Not only that, Xun Qingyi also brought good news, that is, cement has been developed.
Li Ningyun was delighted: "Miss Xun has done a great thing for the country and the people! In this way, I will appoint you as a Yuanwailang, and you will go to the Ministry of Works tomorrow. Regent, please help her take care of things and don't let those ignorant people delay Miss Xun's work."
Fu Liangping nodded: "Yes."
To be honest, Fu Liangping really didn't expect that the girl in front of him had such great abilities.
She looked silly, with all her thoughts written on her face, but she didn't think she was stupid, and acted like she was full of ideas.
It's really cute.
Li Ningyun looked at Fu Liangping's amorous expression, chuckled and shook her head.
After the two of them left the imperial study together, Fu Liangping looked at Xun Qingyi, who was in a state of confusion, and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Xun Qingyi blurted out subconsciously: "Tell me, after His Majesty appoints me as an official, will he still let me enter the harem?"
Fu Liangping felt a little uncomfortable: "Do you like His Majesty that much?"
Xun Qingyi didn't care: "Yes, isn't the reason I came here for His Majesty? But now it's a little different from what I thought."
Fu Liangping was depressed: "What's the difference?"
Xun Qingyi sighed in distress: "I was determined to become a concubine! How come I became an official?"
"snort!"
Fu Liangping just rolled up his sleeves and left.
Xun Qingyi was left with a puzzled look on her face.
What's wrong with him? Why is he so erratic? Is he having his period?
What Xun Qingyi didn't know was that after she entered the court, she truly felt how terrible the exploitation of capitalists was.
Every 996 is a kind of happiness.
Over the past ten years, Xun Qingyi gradually lost herself in Li Ningyun's constant deception.
She worked hard and transformed herself into a model worker in ancient times.
Cement, glass, hot pot, malatang, barbecue, innovation of various agricultural tools, and even the forging of steel bars!
Whatever Xun Qingyi could think of, she did it.
Of course, there are many shadows of Li Ningyun and Fu Liangping helping out.
Xun Qingyi lost herself in the praises and had long forgotten what she had said before about wanting to be the emperor's concubine.
What’s so good about a harem?
How can it be better to do business?
Another five years later, when the neighboring country began to become restless and wanted to raise an army to attack the border of Yunqi Kingdom.
Looking at the ten-meter-high city wall, he fell into deep thought.
When was this built?
What is this gray thing?
They tried to hit the wall with catapults, but the wall didn't collapse or even get damaged, only a few shallow marks were left.
He tried pouring in some liquor, but even after the liquor dried up, the gray surface was only slightly burnt black.
With a wipe of my hand, the black layer actually fell off!
It fell!!!
How can we fight this?
The generals of the neighboring country had no choice but to withdraw their troops and plan for the long term.
But this time it was the Regent who led the troops!
How could they be allowed to go back and discuss the matter so easily?
Now that you are here, just stay.
Anyway, the emperor said that there are still many areas where dams have not been built. Doesn’t this just save the people the hard work?
Just use these prisoners of war to help with the construction.
And there is no need to pay wages.
As for eating?
The Yunqi Kingdom is not short of food now.
Five years ago, Xun Qingyi found several kinds of food that could be used as staple food in the mountains.
It has already been planted throughout the country.
Now every household in Yunqi Country has surplus food, and they live a very comfortable life.
Thinking of Xun Qingyi, Fu Liangping gritted his teeth.
No one knew what that girl was thinking, she was completely focused on the court.
She couldn't even see my sincerity!
It's all the Emperor's fault! He feeds that girl all this nonsense every day.
Now she is like a chicken with its blood pumped up, thinking about making all kinds of messy inventions every day.
Fu Liangping was indignant.
He never thought that Fu Liangping had played a significant role in Xun Qingyi's current situation.
In fact, no one is to blame for this matter. To use the words of His Majesty, that girl has eight hundred tricks in her body, but they are all sincere!
