Chapter 566: Diverting trouble to the east
"Lao Qi, do you have any solutions?" Zhou Lihuai looked at Yan Mu with a look.
Yan Mu twitched his lips, "You asked me to protect Mrs. Hou's fetus?"
"But you are very capable!"
"I don't have this ability."
Zhou Lihuai couldn't help but sigh again, "Oh, by the way, you saved me, I'll say thank you to you."
Liu Yunxiang hummed, "Your thank you is too perfunctory."
"My life is still hanging, don't worry about me." Zhou Lihuai said as he drank a cup of tea and said, "The Marquis cried all day long, how could he keep the fetus like this?"
"What do you say about the emperor?"
Zhou Lihuai leaned over and whispered: "The matter between him and Mrs. Hou has been exposed. His face has been very heavy these two days. I will send someone to check who leaked the news. Be careful and don't find out on your head."
Yan Mu nodded and said, "It's actually simple to save your life."
"Oh? What do you say?" Zhou Lihuai hurriedly listened attentively.
"Mrs. Hou always cries, because evil spirits must have entered her body. Anyway, Zhuangzi is very close to Yunxia Mountain Taoist Temple, and the Taoist Taoist in the temple is profound and profound. He asked him to drive away evil spirits for Mr. Hou. Maybe Mrs. Hou will not cry, and the fetus in the belly can be saved."
Zhou Lihuai raised his eyebrows, "You are not happy to smile, are you?"
Yan Mu shook his head, "You must also show the emperor that you are not good at medical skills. In the end, you are not as experienced as the old doctors in the Imperial Hospital. Please ask all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital to protect the fetus of Mrs. Hou. If you really can't save it, the emperor wouldn't really kill so many doctors."
Zhou Lihuai's eyes lit up, "This is a way. Since that's the case, there is no need to ask Taoist Hongxuan to do it."
"I want it." Yan Mu curled his lips, "He is the hero in front of the emperor. With him, what are you afraid of?"
Zhou Lihuai nodded quickly, "It's right, it's right, I'll do it now!"
As he said that, Zhou Lihuai quickly ran out, ran to the door and turned around and shouted: "Lao Qi, I'll treat you to a drink afterwards!"
After Zhou Lihuai left, Liu Yunxiang was a little puzzled: "The next sentence, let all the imperial doctors in the Imperial Hospital protect the fetus of Mrs. Hou, which can indeed help Zhou Lihuai, but the previous sentence, let Hongxuan do it, you have your own purpose, right?"
"Well, pull Hongxuan in."
“Why?”
"I want to use the emperor's trust in him to let him help me achieve something."
Jinyan shouted that it was time to use supper, but Liu Yunxiang didn't ask again.
"Let's have a meal."
Yan Mu responded and saw Liu Yunxiang turn around and walk out, "Tonight..."
"What?" Liu Yunxiang looked back at Yan Mu, "What's going on tonight?"
Yan Mu pursed his lips, "Do you go back to this room to sleep?"
Liu Yunxiang was stunned for a moment, then shook her head, "No."
"How about I go back to the middle yard, you will be crowded with your two children and you will be sleeping soundly and uncomfortable."
Liu Yunxiang sighed softly, "Okay,"
Yan Mu frowned. He thought Liu Yunxiang would not agree, but she agreed.
After dinner, Yan Mu returned to the intermediate yard. Liu Yunxiang played with her two children for a while, and then coaxed them to bed.
"Mom, why don't Dad stay in this yard?" Yan'er asked.
"Dad and mother have a quarrel." said the little master Xingyi.
"Does father and mother also quarrel? Why?"
"Don't ask about adults, kids."
"Does sister know?"
"I don't want to know that adults are very scheming. I don't want us to make up after a fight."
"Sister is right, adults are all petty."
The two children lay on their own beds, communicated for a while, and then slept with the quilt. Liu Yunxiang was funny, and she didn't have time to speak.
When she returned to the west room, Liu Yunxiang saw the cloak hanging in front of the bed. It was Yan Mu's. It was cold at night and she had to wear it when she went out. She took the cloak and went to the intermediate courtyard.
When she arrived at the gate of the yard, she saw Yan Mu standing in the courtyard with his hands on his back, while someone stood behind him, reporting something.
Liu Yunxiang looked at it carefully, isn’t this Jiang Yuan?
Did he come back from Western Yue? Have you found the antidote for Xiaoyao San?
She was about to go in when she saw Jiang Yuan take out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and hand it over to Yan Mu.
"Your Highness, the news about Chongming is accurate. We have found the antidote to Xiaoyao San."
Yan Mu took the small porcelain bottle and held it in front of him, "After taking this antidote, can I remember everything?"
"yes."
Yan Mu stared at the antidote for a long time, then put it in his arms.
"Your Highness, why don't you take it?"
Yan Mu said lightly: "It's not the time."
"But Mrs. must be very anxious."
Yan Mucha glanced at the door and said, "Wait a minute."
Knowing that his master had an idea, Jiang Yuan stopped persuading him.
"You set out to Luzhou as soon as possible, I want to tell you something."
"yes."
Liu Yunxiang didn't go in, so she took back her foot that had stepped into the threshold and turned back to her yard. He said she would wait a little longer, so wait a little longer.
The next morning, the emperor summoned several ministers to the study room.
Yan Mu left later. When he entered the door, he saw the emperor picking up a teacup, and smashed it with the hot water inside, and hit Shangguan Xu's forehead who was kneeling on the ground.
The emperor looked angry, so he was very strong. After Yan Mu gave the courtesy, he looked down and immediately bleeding from Shangguan Xu's forehead. But he didn't dare to wipe it, but just crawled down.
"Your Majesty, I am not good at doing things well and I have failed to restrain my subordinates. I also ask you to surrender your crime."
Yan Mu lowered his eyes and knew that the emperor was so angry because he found out that the scandal of him and Mrs. Hou was leaked from the Western Factory. If someone else was replaced, the emperor would have ordered the person to be killed.
He was the 95th Lord, because of this scandal, he lost all his face and was afraid of criticism from the censors, and had not been to court for two consecutive days.
Shangguan Xu was wronged for the crime, but the news was indeed leaked from the Western Factory. Now instead of defending him, it would be better to attribute the crime to the lack of strictness of the rule and let the emperor calm down first.
The emperor saw Shangguan Xu, who was covered in blood by his face, was the old man beside him, and his right-hand man, so he could not really kill him.
"You can check carefully and find out who leaked it, and you must not let it go." The emperor said.
"Yes, the old slave must give the emperor an explanation."
"Okay, get up."
Shangguan Xu was about to get up, but his legs seemed to be unstraight, so he fell forward and Yan Mu quickly helped him with his eyes and hands.
"Be careful of the Lord."
Shangguan Xu hurriedly turned around and saluted: "Thank you, Your Highness Seven."
The two of them had a brief exchange of their eyes. Yan Mu was cunning and Shangguan Xu was gloomy.
The other ministers seemed to be counting on time, and when the emperor finished teaching Shangguan Xu a lesson, they came in, obviously because they were afraid of touching the holy rage. Yan Mu lowered his eyes. When he was walking by, no one called him, a group of old foxes.
"I have been feeling unwell in the past two days, so I have not been to court, but some political affairs cannot be delayed. First of all, the governor of Youzhou, Zhang Zhouqian, relapsed due to his old injuries, and he is too old to be unable to follow his will, so he resigned from his post. Youzhou is a military center and cannot be without a commander for a day. Can you recommend him?" the emperor asked.
A minister said, "I wonder who Governor Zhang has recommended?"
"Youzhou Deputy General Cheng An."
"I think since it was recommended by Governor Zhang and the deputy general guarding Youzhou, he is familiar with Youzhou's military affairs and is a good candidate."
Another minister echoed: "This General Cheng has also made many military achievements and is indeed the most suitable candidate."
Several other ministers recommended Cheng An, but the emperor seemed a little dissatisfied. He looked up and saw Yan Mu standing there without saying a word.
