The interior of the Queen Mother's carriage was exquisite, the seats were spacious and bright, and there was a low table inside the carriage with delicious side dishes on it. The Third Prince had a great appetite and ordered more rice twice.
The same bowl, the same chopsticks, the same vegetables and rice, but they taste two completely different things in your mouth.
Why does the Queen Mother have such an ugly expression? Is it possible that the food she eats is different from the food he eats?
Zhu Qian raised his spoon and bravely scooped a spoonful. "It tastes the same, why doesn't it taste good to my mother?"
"The Queen Mother is not hungry, please eat."
Man is iron and rice is steel. If you don’t eat for a meal, you will feel hungry.
The Third Prince buried his head in his food, and everything he ate seemed crispy and delicious.
Aunt Fang was busy serving him some food, "Your Highness, eat slowly."
Fugui came to deliver food to Zhu Qian. Seeing him wolfing down the food, he found it funny. After returning, he imitated the food and showed it to the emperor.
"I have no appetite. My third brother loves meat. Bring the meat in front of me to him."
The emperor did not eat any food, but drank slowly from a glass of cold wine.
Gu Yinwei took the wine pot and put it into the clay stove to warm it up. The emperor stopped her and said, "Don't warm the wine. I feel hot and want to drink some cold wine."
All the curtains in the carriage were opened, and the snow on the road had not completely melted yet. Everyone was so cold that they were jumping up and down, and they put their hands into their sleeves and refused to take them out.
The emperor took off his robe and put on only one piece of clothing, but still said he was cold.
Gu Yinwei sensed something was wrong. She reached out and held the emperor's hand, which felt like it was burning with fire.
"Fugui, summon the court for judgment."
"Okay, Madam Xiang."
Fugui went to ask the court for a judge, and the emperor took the initiative to comfort Gu Yinwei.
"I went horseback riding with my third brother this morning, and I used a set of sword moves to repel a wolf. I worked up a sweat, so it's normal for me to have hot spots on my body."
"I am worried, so I'd better ask the judge to come and take a look."
If the emperor compromises, "it's better to wait and see."
The judge was carrying a paulownia wood medicine box filled with tools for medical consultations.
The goatee on his face was almost pulled out, but the cause of the disease was not diagnosed.
"Your Majesty is in good health."
"Why is Ankang feeling hot all over?"
The judge couldn't answer, his brain was racing, he began to look for external reasons. In short, the emperor's fever couldn't be blamed on his poor medical skills for not being able to diagnose the disease, and this blame couldn't be put on him.
"Is the emperor taking any tonics? Please check carefully the clothes he carries with him."
Fugui said, "Your Majesty's diet remains the same, and he has not taken any additional tonics."
"Eunuch Fugui, please think about it carefully. This concerns the health of the Emperor, and we cannot be careless."
Fugui was a young man after all, and he immediately showed his fear in front of the old hand like the judge. He threw the blame away, and the judge patted his sleeves and stood up to say goodbye.
Fugui was busy looking through the files to check the recipes, and came back to reply, but the judge had already left.
Fugui pouted, feeling that he had suffered a loss.
Xun He said: "Don't be too rigid in doing things. Don't take responsibility if it's not your fault."
"Next time you encounter something like this, be firm and say, 'The Emperor asked you to check for symptoms, so just check. If you can't find anything, it's your incompetence.'"
"But the judge holds a high position, and I am just a small eunuch."
"It's precisely because he holds a high position that he needs to drag the eunuchs into his crimes. The more outspoken and unreasonable you are, the less likely he will make things difficult for you. After all, your master is the Emperor. As long as you serve the Emperor well and he protects you, even if the judge is dissatisfied with you, he won't openly complain to the Emperor."
Fugui does not have the experience that Xunhe has, but he is willing to learn and correct his mistakes.
"Here, Master, let me burn the knife for you."
"I just like to drink strong liquor, ride strong horses, and live a happy life."
Xun He had no chance of drinking from a wine bag, riding a wild horse, or living a happy life. As for his three hobbies, only drinking strong liquor could fulfill them.
The twin carp jade pendants were tied around the emperor's waist, constantly taking away the emperor's vitality along the way. When Gu Yinwei was with the emperor day and night, she felt that the emperor's luck was gradually weakening.
While the emperor was taking a nap, she pressed her palm on his chest. The protective golden dragon did not jump out from above his head to scare her, and no dragon roar sounded in her ears.
Gu Yinwei left disappointed. She planned to go to the Third Prince to find out.
"My brother is getting weaker day by day, while I am getting healthier day by day. There must be something strange going on."
Zhu Qian fell into deep thought, and then ordered her to leave. "Xiang Fei, I know who did this. Go back and wait for news."
"Okay, I'll wait for the good news from the Third Prince."
After Gu Yinwei left, Zhu Qian decided to put on a show for the Queen Mother about being possessed by an evil spirit. At this time, they were temporarily staying in the inn. Other merchants had been cleared out, and only the royal convoy was stationed there.
It's a disgrace for his own family to see. In order to save his brother, he would even give up his life, let alone his face.
Zhu Qian covered his face with lead powder, put on a colorful flowery dress, climbed onto the roof with great effort, and laughed wildly.
"Hahahaha, hahahaha."
After laughing twice, my chest felt tired and my throat hurt. It turns out that laughing out loud does take a lot of energy.
Master and apprentice Fugui and Xunhe were the first to notice something was wrong with the Third Prince. Xunhe raised his elbow and nudged Fugui: "Hurry up and tell the Queen Mother, hurry up!"
Fugui agreed repeatedly: "Yes, Master, I will go and report the news, please keep an eye on it."
"Need you to tell me? He climbed so high, how could I not see him?"
Xun He took the initiative to talk to the Third Prince, trying to distract his attention.
"Third Prince, please don't jump. Please don't jump."
"Hahaha, I'm not the Third Prince."
"If you are not the Third Prince, then who are you?"
"Hahaha, I won't tell you."
