Chapter 53 An IOU

All of this is premeditated.

Luo Zi became the scapegoat, and the banknotes issued in his house were cashed bills issued by the Prince of Chu's Palace.

She was reported to have been treating the Supreme Emperor privately. If the Nine Turns Pill had not been discovered, she would still be suspected of murdering the Supreme Emperor.

Now, has she made it clear? I'm afraid that may not be the case. The emperor is only secretly pursuing it, and the Chu Palace is still in the limelight.

How would the Supreme Emperor view this matter? She couldn't help but glance at the Supreme Emperor.

The Supreme Emperor was staring at her with stern eyes.

Yuan Qingling put down the blessing treasure and lowered his head to whitewash the peace.

She knew that the Supreme Emperor might have noticed something, but if she didn't, the Supreme Emperor wouldn't be able to understand what Fu Bao said.

"Come here!" the Supreme Emperor said coldly.

Yuan Qing stood up and walked over slowly, "Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."

"What did you think of just now? Why did your face change so much?" the Supreme Emperor asked directly.

Yuan Qingling glanced at Eunuch Chang and Aunt Xi, and shook her head. "As for the Emperor, I didn't expect anything. The change in his face may be due to his physical weakness. He didn't eat breakfast."

Aunt Xi smiled and said, "The Emperor hasn't eaten yet. He's already making arrangements. We'll have something to eat soon."

"Thank you, mama!" Yuan Qingling said softly.

The Supreme Emperor didn't ask anymore. After detoxification, his body was very weak and he couldn't even stare at Yuan Qingling for long.

Breakfast was minced meat porridge. Yuan Qingling drank two bowls and felt a little stronger for the party. Fu Bao opened his mouth with a long tongue hanging down, drooling. She smiled and said to Aunt Xi, "Fu Bao can drink porridge now.

Get some for it, don't add salt, the dog needs to eat lighter, in fact, the emperor also needs to eat lighter."

"I can't eat light food." The Supreme Emperor hurriedly said.

"It's necessary!" Yuan Qingling turned her head and looked at him seriously.

"As a housekeeper, you care about heaven and earth, but you also care about whether I eat salty food or not?" The Supreme Emperor was furious, and he knew that he was angry with himself when he called her over.

"You don't care about other things, you have to take care of your food." Yuan Qingling said with a pun.

The Emperor fell silent.

This old man is so smart.

So, would he not know who drugged him? Would he think it was Luo Zi?

Aunt Xi went to make minced meat porridge for Fu Bao, and Eunuch Chang also went to supervise the soup making.

Yuan Qing Ling just walked over to test the Emperor, but she heard someone shouting from outside, "Your Majesty rewards Princess Chu!"

Yuan Qingling was stunned for a moment and looked outside. The Emperor said, "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don't you go out and collect the reward quickly?"

"Oh!" Yuan Qingling hurriedly walked out and saw Eunuch Mu Ru holding a delicate tray outside. King Qi and Chu Mingcui hadn't left yet, and both of them looked at Yuan Qingling.

"The emperor has an edict, and Princess Chu has served her well, and she has specially given Ryukyu two strands of southern pearls and a thousand taels of gold as tribute!" Mu Rugong said impartially.

Yuan Qingling knelt down and said, "Thank you, Father, for the reward."

Chu Mingcui's eyes almost fell out. The reward of Nanzhu was not enough, but also a thousand taels of gold? Why did his father attach so much importance to Yuan Qingling?

Eunuch Mu Ru put the tray in Yuan Qingling's hand and said with a smile, "Princess, this southern pearl that Ryukyu paid tribute to is very precious and extraordinary. Princess, please take care of it."

"Yes, thank you, Eunuch." Yuan Qing stood up and said.

"Let's go in first and pay our respects to the Emperor." Eunuch Mu Ru said, then turned around and went in.

Yuan Qingling saw that there was no gold on the tray, only two strings of fluorescent round pearls. Under the pearls was a piece of paper. When she opened it, she was dumbfounded. It was an IOU for one thousand taels of gold.

Is there an IOU for the reward?

Chu Mingcui stepped forward with a sweet smile and said, "Congratulations to Princess Chu for receiving a reward from her father."

Yuan Qingling looked at her, with a bright smile on her face, and her eyes were full of congratulations, without any hint of jealousy or jealousy.

Yuan Qing said, "Thank you."

"Southern pearls match a beauty, why don't Princess Chu try them on?" Chu Mingcui said.

Yuan Qingling shook his head, "No, I still have to serve the Supreme Emperor inside, and it's inconvenient to wear it on my body."

Yuan Qingling felt that this person was very scheming, and he had to be careful with every word he said. He didn't know what his intentions were.

"That's right, by the way, is the situation of the Emperor better?" Chu Mingcui asked.

Yuan Qingling looked at her and said, "Why don't Princess Qi go in personally to say hello?"

Chu Mingcui's face looked a little ugly at the moment.

King Qi took a step forward and said with a little doubt, "Can you ask the emperor's grandfather why he didn't see the king? This is really strange."

Yuan Qingling sighed softly in her heart, "I'm confused. The Emperor doesn't allow Chu Mingcui to go in. How can he not allow you to go in?"

However, since King Qi didn't say anything bad to her, she didn't need to offend him. "The Supreme Emperor Xu doesn't want too many people to be noisy around him. He always likes to be quiet."

"The king thinks so," King Qi looked back at Chu Mingcui, "Why don't we go back and wait until the emperor's grandfather gets better before entering the palace to pay his respects."

This had been going on for more than half an hour, and he was tired.

Chu Mingcui clenched her fists slightly, feeling resentful in her heart. The Emperor used to love her very much, but the Emperor would not allow her to come, but the Emperor would not do this. She could not sit back and wait for death. She must be looked upon differently by the Emperor. If she did not enter the palace to serve her,

, can't guard against Yuan Qingling.

Thinking of this, she smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, just wait a little longer."

"But my mother is not in good health, why don't we go back and stay with her?" King Qi knew that Chu Mingcui was out of filial piety to his grandfather, but this would be a pain for her.

When Chu Mingcui heard this, she suddenly said to Qi Wang, "By the way, I heard that Concubine Xian has been having headaches lately. Why don't we go sit with Concubine Xian."

When she was walking, she glanced at Yuan Qingling intentionally or unintentionally.

Yuan Qingling ignored him and turned around and went in. She secretly suspected that Concubine Xian was Yu Wenhao's mother-in-law and she never did anything. This time she didn't come when Yu Wenhao was seriously injured. The emperor should have blocked the news and prevented her from knowing.

After entering the palace, Eunuch Mu Ru also came out.

Aunt Xi was feeding Fu Bao some porridge. Yuan Qingling put the Nanzhu on the table casually and went over to take the Emperor's temperature.

"This thing is too cold." The Supreme Emperor complained.

Yuan Qingling felt that the Supreme Emperor would never complain, so he was used to it and simply ignored it.

The Emperor was very bored and glanced at the tray on the table, "What good things have I given you?"

"Nanzhu, I still have an IOU for one thousand taels of gold." Yuan Qing Ling said.

"IOU?" The Emperor smiled, "Girl, you've got a treasure."

"I know that Eunuch Mu Ru, these southern pearls are tribute from Ryukyu. They are the best treasures."

"What's a Nanzhu? It's a dead thing. It doesn't have enough food and clothing. What's precious is the IOU."

Yuan Qingling was surprised, "Why is this IOU a treasure?"

"Don't I have a thousand taels of gold to give you? Why do I need to give you an IOU?" asked the Supreme Emperor.

"..." Turtle son, are you an old turtle? The older you get, the weirder your temper becomes. "Please give me some advice from the Supreme Emperor."

"Open this IOU and take a closer look. If you are in danger of being killed in the future, bring this IOU into the palace. Maybe it can save your life."

After Yuan Qingling heard this, he quickly went to get the IOU and opened it. He saw a colorful writing saying that he owed the Princess of Chu a thousand taels of gold. At the bottom, there were a few more words written in the big seal. If you don't like money, you can exchange it for something else.

Yuan Qingling was puzzled, "Why did the emperor write like this?"

"I don't know, maybe I saw something." The Supreme Emperor shrugged.

He shrugged, opened his armpit, and the thermal needle fell down. He fiddled with it and took it out and handed it to Yuan Qingling, "Okay."

Yuan Qingling took it and looked at it. He had no fever and his body temperature was normal.

"I'm going to sleep, you go out and fight." The Supreme Emperor closed his eyes and muttered.
