Chapter 419 Sweet is not sweet (Jun Mo Xi Wan reward plus more)
"Well, I saw it."
Xu Mingyi sat down, lowered her voice and said: "But I see, the body of the empress dowager is still healthy...and her temperament is not like a depressed and irritable person, but she is optimistic and open-minded."
Although there are many diseases in this world and even the root cause cannot be found, people with a temperament like the empress dowager are often not prone to those so-called emergencies.
In the last life, she remembered that the empress dowager died suddenly in this sacrifice.
The external statement seems to be that the excessive grief caused by the memory of the first emperor caused the already weak body to trigger an emergency.
This is why she came here this time.
This is exactly the "dream" she and Wu Chao talked about.
"In this way, the empress dowager said that the disease has been deeply and simple in these years, and it is mostly an excuse." Wu Chao said thoughtfully.
Xu Ming nodded intentionally.
The King Yan was not in Beijing, but was always jealous by the emperor. As the birth mother of King Yan, the Queen Mother seldom appears in front of people, but asking about political affairs and harem matters should also be to avoid trouble, because once the trouble is up, the King Yan will inevitably be involved.
It is indeed wise to do so.
"Now, I am a little worried..." Xu Mingyi said with discretion: "I am worried that what the eldest princess experienced before will happen to the empress dowager."
The princess was assassinated face-to-face. If it weren’t for an accident in the middle, the result would only be “triggered to death by an emergency”.
Although she can't think of anyone who would use this method to deal with the queen mother -
Wu Chao had heard her talk about the involvement behind the assassination of the princess Jingrong, and she knew it was the emperor’s handwriting. Hearing what she said now, she nodded and said: "The empress dowager rarely goes out of the palace, if someone takes it seriously. If you want to do it, it is indeed a good opportunity."
"Yes, even if it's just suspicious, it's better to be more prepared."
"I will remind the prince secretly, let the empress dowager pay more attention to the food and the people around him."
Xu Mingyi nodded: “This time I have prepared a lot of medicines to deal with various emergencies. I also brought the medical books that Dr. Qiu gave me earlier. I will take a look at it when I have time, in case I need it.”
Although the occurrence of some diseases cannot be prevented by human power, she will do her best.
Looking at the girl who was taking this matter very seriously because of a dream, Wu Zhao couldn't help but warmly said: "Zhao Zhao, thank you very much."
"What's so thankful about this, it's a matter of reason."
Indeed, something happened to the empress dowager, or the last straw that made King Yan make up his mind to rebel in the previous life.
And she really hoped that the Dog Emperor could be pulled from that position as soon as possible.
If she can really save the queen mother this time, or it will change the original trajectory of some things.
But even so, she still feels that there is no need to choose and consider all of this.
Ten thousand steps back and said, the overall situation of the world is already in front of us, and this is not a great choice with a simple effort.
And you can even think of it simply as—Wu Chao is the person she likes. Even if she only loves Wu and Wu, she will try her best to save his grandmother.
Especially this old man has been taken as a hostage in Beijing over the years. He has never been reunited with his children and grandchildren, but he is still tenacious and optimistic. It is pitiful and respectable. Such elders really shouldn't leave this world unclearly.
In her eyes, such people are worthy people.
is like Wu Chao.
In the dream she had had, she lost all her family members, and Wu Chao was also - before the Wu family lost control of the overall situation, for the great cause of Yan Wang, the century-old family would be burned. This was the decision of King Dingnan.
Even if King Yan did sit in that position in the end, is such a painful price really worth it?
She thought, if Wu Chao could choose, he would definitely not take such a path.
So, she is very sure that every step she has taken now, no matter what the result is, at least there will be no more regrets.
Thinking about this, and then looking at the young man in front of her, Xu Mingyi only felt that the road ahead was hard and dangerous, but she didn’t have to be afraid. Her heart was filled with these real and warm ties in the world, and she was also extremely stable——
"Wu Chao."
"Um?"
Xu Mingyi whispered: "Close your eyes—"
Wu Zhao breathed.
Close your eyes...what do you do?
"Close it." Xu Mingyi urged.
The boy immediately did it this time, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
After waiting patiently for a while, he noticed that something cool was touching his lips.
But based on the feeling, it doesn’t seem to be what he imagined...
"Open your mouth."
The girl’s tone is commanding and soft.
Wu Yun opened his mouth obediently, and a piece of malt candy was stuffed into his mouth.
tasted what it was, and the young man died.
...Sure enough, he was dreaming again, right?
When he opened his eyes, the girl’s sweet smile appeared in the eyes.
"It was given to me by the empress mother, sweet or not?" she asked.
Outside the pavilion, it was drizzling. Looking at her eyes, Wu Chao nodded slowly: "Sweet."
——It’s so sweet.
Hearing the words, Tianmu flew from the stone bench to the stone table, stretched his neck and moved between the two, showing a gesture of "Taste anything for me".
Wu Zhao glanced at the horrible bird with dissatisfaction.
Xu Mingyi applied the icing sugar on his fingers to the long beak of the big bird, and laughed happily.
Seeing her smiling extremely happily, the teenager standing with his hands raised his lips and smiled.
……
The rain stopped until midnight. Early the next morning, in the clear sky, a group of people and carriage slowly left the post house.
Stop and go like this, take a rest at night, and only arrived at Lingshan in the afternoon of the third day.
There are temples and palaces on the side of the Lingshan imperial mausoleum. At this time, the car stopped outside the palace. Xu Mingyi and Shi Shi helped the lord of Yufeng down the carriage.
The palace here is half hidden at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by dense forests and cypresses, quiet and solemn.
After disembarking from the carriage, Emperor Qingming went to the palace, accompanied by several princes and other officials.
Among a group of brocade-clothed official robes, the gray robe that accompanies Qingming Emperor is more conspicuous.
Xu Mingyi glanced at Xuanqing Guoshi, then subconsciously searched around Qingming Emperor for a while, but did not see Zhan Yunzhu.
I took a closer look, and then I was in the last line of officials, and I saw the face that was always showing the appearance of hypocrisy.
Xu Mingyi's eyes moved slightly.
Although it is calculated according to the rank, it is understandable that Zhan Yunzhu followed in the end——
But as we all know, this person is especially valued by the emperor these days, and is often accompanied by the holy driver.
It's like this now, but it's not common.
So, the previous plan still has some effect.
At this time, Zhan Yunzhu's feet were slightly slower in his line of sight, and he turned his head and looked in one direction as if observantly.
Xu Mingyi turned his face slightly and followed his gaze.
