"Empress, Liu Yubi said that he wanted to flee to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The Eastern Zhou Dynasty is to the east, Guancheng is also to the east, and the king is in Guancheng!"
hiss.
What Long Chen said made Queen Lu's hair stand on end.
"Didn't you just say that Liu Yubi fled out of fear of crime, why did you go to Guancheng instead!" .??.
Queen Lu stood up and grabbed Long Chen's collar, completely ignoring the queen's manner.
Long Chen bowed and said, "The common people dare not speak nonsense. Liu Yubi said that he wanted to escape. The common people can only tell the truth."
"Liu Yubi may have fled to Guancheng to expose him. This is the speculation of ordinary people."
Queen Lu was trembling all over, her eyes were panicked, and she held Long Chen's collar tightly in her hands.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. It will take time to get from the Royal City to Guancheng. The old thief can't run far. We only need to send out elite cavalry to chase him. There's still time."
"Not many people know about this matter. Your Majesty only needs to deal with it in these few days. Even if the gods come, they won't be able to explain it clearly."
"As for the old thief, just kill him on the road and never let him speak. If he is later accused of poisoning and treason, the matter will be over."
Long Chen spoke eloquently, and Queen Lu nodded sharply: "Yes, that's exactly what it is!"
Just then, Gong Zheng Yuyao hurried in and saw the queen grabbing Long Chen's clothes.
"Empress!"
Yuyao thought Long Chen had done something and immediately stepped forward to warn him.
This Gongzheng Yuyao has practiced, and his cultivation is in the early stage of the king, so he is considered a master in the palace.
The queen loosened her clothes and said: "The old thief may have been instructed by Concubine Li to go to Guancheng to complain. You should quickly send your elite cavalry to hunt him down and come back with his head to revive him!"
Yuyao was shocked and said: "Instigated by Concubine Li?"
Why was it that Concubine Li was instigating this matter just once she went out?
The queen was impatient and said: "Send people to chase him quickly. If he gets to Guancheng, we will die!"
Yuyao didn't ask any further questions, and immediately sent a second wave of people to chase east.
Queen Lu sat down tremblingly, touched her belly, and said: "You should prepare the medicine immediately. The palace wants to get rid of this scourge."
Long Chen bowed and said, "The common people obey the order, but these medicinal materials cannot appear in the palace. The common people must go back to prepare the medicine and boil it before sending it to the palace, so that it can be kept secret."
If you get this kind of medicine from the Tai Hospital, you are throwing yourself into a trap.
Even the maids and eunuchs in the palace could not see those medicinal materials.
Queen Lu looked at Long Chen without saying anything. Long Chen knew what Queen Lu was thinking.
Liu Yubi said she would go back to boil the medicine, but she ran away.
Now that Long Chen is talking about going back to make medicine, there is no guarantee that Long Chen won’t run away too.
"The matter is urgent. The common people are worried that Concubine Li will kill her. I implore the empress to send someone to protect the common people."
Long Chen was very sensible and took the initiative to ask Queen Lu to send someone to follow and monitor her.
Queen Lu's face softened slightly, she nodded slightly and said, "Yes, if that bitch did what she did, she will definitely harm you."
"I will send you two retinues to ensure your safety."
Long Chen pretended to be surprised and said, "Thank you so much for your kindness, the common people no longer have to worry about anything."
Queen Lu was very satisfied with Long Chen's success.
Not long after, Yuyao came in and said, "My dear, it's ready."
Queen Lu nodded slightly and said: "He wants to go back to cook medicine. He is worried about Concubine Li's murder. Please ask me to send guards to protect him."
"You go and choose two capable maids to protect him."
Yuyao knew everything and knew what the queen meant.
"Understood, I'll pick two of you right away."
When Yuyao went out, Long Chen was waiting in the bedroom.
After the matter was settled, Queen Lu felt a little at ease, and then she had the time to look at Long Chen carefully.
He is tall, has a delicate face, and has a heroic look between his brows.
Queen Lu thought to herself: She has given birth to a good baby.
"When did you study medicine with Liu Yubi?"
Queen Lu asked coldly.
Long Chen took half a step back and replied: "When Cao Min was 9 years old, his family suffered an accident and he ended up living on the streets begging. The old thieves took Cao Min in at that time and it has been 12 years now."
Queen Lu asked: "You have been in the old thief's house for 12 years, why have I never heard of it?"
The queen only heard that Liu Yubi taught two disciples, but never heard of Long Chen.
Long Chen bowed and said, "The old thief has taken common people as his disciples. He almost never leaves home and is always in the pharmacy."
"How can the common people defiled the Queen's daughter's body, how can she pollute the Queen's holy hearing?"
This is Long Chen's own words, so naturally Queen Lu won't believe them all.
"You have been under the old thief for 12 years and have never left the house? Are you just like a prisoner?"
Long Chen replied: "Actually, the old thief just thinks that the common people look good."
"All the servants in the house can testify to this matter."
If Queen Lu finds someone to confront her, there will be absolutely no problem if all the servants in Liu Mansion are replaced by people from Xichang.
A look of understanding appeared on Queen Lu's face. In ancient times, there was a bad habit of raising children for molestation. When Liu Yubi saw that Long Chen was growing well, she kept him in the room as a plaything. This makes sense.
"I see. How about the medical skills that the old thief taught you?"
Queen Lu is considering whether to take Long Chen for herself.
Long Chen bowed and said, "I didn't actually learn much about medicine. The old thief only taught me the art of acupuncture."
Long Chen is not omnipotent. He really doesn't know how to treat patients and prescribe medicine. He learned a little about acupuncture from Xiu Niang.
If Queen Lu wants to test it, she can use acupuncture to fool her and prescribe a prescription.
Queen Lu nodded slightly, Long Chen's answer sounded very true.
The door opened and Yuyao came in with two maids. "My dear, these two are good at martial arts."
Long Chen took a quick look and saw that the two women were tall and wearing black dresses. The skin on their faces was a little rough, but they had excellent figures, with big breasts and perky butts.
People who practice martial arts are exposed to wind and sun, and Xixia is dry and bitter, so it is understandable that the skin on their faces is not good.
As long as the skin underneath the clothes is good, that's fine.
Queen Lu nodded slightly and ordered: "This is Liu Feng, the new imperial physician in the palace. From today on, you will follow him to protect his safety."
"Remember, you must be inseparable. You must eat and sleep together."
These words sounded very familiar. When Long Chen was assassinated in the capital, Di Luoxi sent Zhang Qian to protect him and said he was inseparable.
The two women immediately bowed and said, "Slave, I obey!"
Queen Lu turned to Long Chen and said: "The two of them were trained by me. They are good at guarding and assassinating. Within ten meters, taking a person's head is like picking out an object from a bag. There will be no problem in protecting you."
These words were a warning to Long Chen. Within ten meters, taking someone's head was like picking something out of a bag. With two such powerful palace maids nearby, it would be easy for Queen Lu to kill Long Chen.
Long Chen pretended not to understand, and bowed happily: "Thank you for your kindness!"
Queen Lu showed a meaningful smile on her face.
Yuyao said coldly: "The empress said that you are the imperial doctor in the palace. From tonight on, you are no longer a pariah. You are a slave in the palace."
Long Chen secretly thought in his heart: What is the difference between changing from a pariah to a slave?
"Thank you for your grace, little one."
Long Chen never said the word "slave".
Queen Lu just assumed that Long Chen had not left the house for 12 years, did not understand the rules of the palace, and did not care about the title issue.
"You go back quickly to boil the medicine and bring it to the palace tonight."
Queen Lu was very anxious and had to get rid of the contents of her stomach.
Long Chen immediately bowed and said, "I accept my order, I will take my leave."
