The maid under the porch took a few steps back, which puzzled the imperial concubine who came over.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"Reply to your Majesty." A chamberlain bowed and said in a low voice, "The Prince of Jin'an is inside."
It's not surprising that he's in there. It's been half a month and he's still in shock. He's been living in the Queen Mother's Palace.
The imperial concubine curled her lips.
"It's still early, why isn't the prince there with Prince Qing?" she said.
The second prince woke up five days after the fall, but as the imperial doctor said, he was completely stunned. He could not even take care of himself to relieve himself, and could not speak.
Seeing this, the emperor and the queen mother were completely heartbroken and asked the imperial doctor to continue treatment, but they already knew there was no hope.
Just three days ago, the emperor issued a decree to confer the title of Prince Qing on the second prince.
Due to the difficulty in having heirs, the emperor deliberately postponed the title of Duke of Ning. The eldest prince was granted the title of Ning Guogong when he was ten years old. He has not yet been granted the title of Duke of Ning, let alone the title of king. The second prince is only seven years old this year.
He has not yet been crowned, but he is crowned king in one step. This is very against the rules.
However, none of the ministers in the court wrote a letter to object. The second prince had obviously deposed one of his sons. Being crowned king was both a blessing and a father protecting his son.
No one would provoke a father to bring trouble at this time, and there is no need to make trouble with a crippled prince.
The chamberlain looked around, then took a few steps forward.
"It's because of Prince Qing's incident that the commotion started." He said in a low voice.
The imperial concubine's heart suddenly tightened again, and her hands under the cloak couldn't help but clenched.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
The waiter sighed.
"He said that he would take His Royal Highness Prince Qing out to find a doctor for treatment." He said, shaking his head.
Go out to see a doctor?
The imperial concubine was stunned.
"You are in a hurry and seek medical treatment."
The Queen Mother said while taking pictures of several cases, while looking at the young man kneeling in front of her with some helplessness.
Even though these days are just around the corner, I still feel like I have suddenly lost weight.
His eyes were blue, his hair was neatly pulled up, but a few obvious stains on the corners of his clothes made the whole thing feel wrong.
"How do you take care of the king!"
The Queen Mother suddenly shouted angrily.
Several chamberlains outside the door immediately rushed in and knelt down to admit their mistake.
"Your Majesty," Prince Jin'an said, "It's not their fault. I have to take care of Brother Six."
The Queen Mother looked at him and sighed.
"Wei Lang," she said, "look what you have become..."
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, please don't worry about me for now. First, think of a way to cure Brother Six..." Prince Jin'an knelt down and took a few steps forward and said hurriedly.
"Wei Lang!" the Queen Mother shouted, raising her voice.
Prince Jin'an raised his head and looked at her.
The young man's big eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, and his face was filled with stubborn sadness.
The Queen Mother's heart softened again and she sighed.
"Wake up, it can't be cured," she said.
Prince Jin'an shook his head.
"No, no, it's not the end yet." He said, shaking his head, "I still want to hear him call me brother, I still want to play with him, and I still want to give it a try."
He said and kowtowed to the ground.
"Mother, let me try, let me try, I am not willing to accept it, I am not willing to accept it, I did not hold him, let me try again, maybe I can bring him back... I want to hear him call me brother
…Mother, I want Brother Six, I want my Brother Six to come back…Mother…”
The Queen Mother's tears rolled down her face and she raised her hands to cover her face.
I want my sixth brother back, I want my sixth brother back.
This is how the cuckoo sings and the blood ape cries.
"Where did you hear about this doctor?" the Queen Mother asked, choking with sobs.
………………
The imperial concubine took a few steps back and forth by the window, looking a little anxious. Just as she was getting impatient with waiting, she saw a palace maid hurried in.
"How is it?" the imperial concubine asked hurriedly.
"The Queen Mother agreed and invited her Majesty to come again." the palace maid said.
The imperial concubine couldn't hide her joy after exhaling and clasping her hands together to chant the Buddha's name.
"Then what did Your Majesty say?" she asked hurriedly.
"Your Majesty also agreed, saying that he would fulfill the sincere heart of the prince." The palace maid said.
A sincere heart…
The imperial concubine sneered.
"Your Majesty has thanked the prince." The maid thought of something and said again.
The imperial concubine frowned.
"Your Majesty, thank him? What did you thank him for?" she asked.
"You talk about doing your best on behalf of His Majesty," the palace maid said, "That's probably what it means, and this slave can't hear clearly..."
The imperial concubine waved her hands.
Anyway, it is certain that Prince Jin'an will take Prince Qing out of the palace to seek medical treatment...
"Where is the doctor they are looking for?" She thought of something and asked again, "Have you gone to get him?"
The palace maid shook her head hurriedly.
"Your Majesty, I didn't invite the doctor here. I said I wanted to go out to see the doctor," she said.
What?
The imperial concubine was startled.
"The prince wants to take Prince Qing out of the palace to see the doctor," the palace maid said.
"Why?" the imperial concubine asked.
"The prince said that it would be a waste of time to invite the doctor here. It's better to take him directly. The sooner King Qing's illness is diagnosed, the better." The maid said while thinking about it, and she was a little embarrassed. "Then I said some more
What, this slave can’t hear clearly... Your Majesty and the Queen Mother agreed."
The imperial concubine stopped asking questions, and her whole mind was filled with the words "Go out of the palace to find the doctor."
These two eye-catching guys are finally leaving the palace!
Prince Qing was okay, but he was just a fool. She really didn't want to see Prince Jin'an at all, not because she disliked the unfounded so-called child-giving boy, but because she just didn't want to see him.
Thinking of the few times I went to the Queen Mother's Palace and the young man kneeling beside me, I always felt chills running down my spine.
No matter if it was a guilty conscience or not, she just didn't want to see him anyway.
A sincere heart, a sincere heart is too good, I might as well push this sincerity to the extreme, and if I can’t cure Prince Qing, I’d rather never come back in this life.
I will never come back in this life...
The imperial concubine’s footsteps paused and her heart beat faster...
That time my wish failed to come true, so this time...
"Nunu." she shouted.
A palace maid walked quietly from the side.
The imperial concubine waved her forward, whispered a few words, and the maid nodded and left.
In the coldest month of winter, many rivers near the outskirts of Beijing are frozen, making it a good time to fish for winter fish.
At this time, seven or eight people, old and young, were sitting around a hut by the river, with servants standing around.
There was a cheer from the riverside.
"It seems that Jun Yan's fish has been hooked." The man in the hut laughed, standing up and looking at the three people walking by the river. One of them, with a red face, was Gao Ling, Jun Gao and Tongshi.
"I didn't like fishing in the past, I just disliked the time and effort, but I didn't expect that the fish in winter would be so easy to catch," he said with a smile.
"That's a bad thing, Mr. Tongshi." Someone said with a smile, pointing to the river, "But not everyone can catch something just by asking for it."
Everyone looked back and saw that there were many people scattered along the river, some with something to gain and some with nothing.
Gao Tong has never been disgusted with this kind of flattery and flattery. He thinks that since people want to please, why do they have to put on an aloof look and humiliate the person who is in trouble? He, Gao Lingjun, is an easy person to get along with, so he laughed.
Just as he was smiling, a carriage came speeding by.
"The cook is here," a man said.
Everyone looked over and saw a maidservant of seventeen or eighteen years old getting out of the car. She had an average appearance and was neatly dressed. She was wrapped in a hooded cloak. Although the color was dull, the ring of fox fur on it showed its cost.
Not cheap.
Nowadays, these good cooks are highly sought after, and their income is huge. It is not uncommon for them to wear gold and silver.
It’s just that the cook is too young, right?
"This Madam Banqin is a famous cook in Beijing now, and she is good at making good snacks." Someone explained to everyone.
Banqin?
Hearing this name, a man sitting cross-legged on a wooden board fishing not far away turned his head, revealing a handsome young face under his felt hat.
Another half celery?
One from the Zhou family, one from the Zhang family, oh, by the way, this is the one from the Cheng family, the one she exchanged for the maidservant of the old man of the Zhang family.
Qin Thirteenth Lang smiled and watched the maid salute the people who were promoted to court officials gracefully without any cowardice. Then without saying a word, he took off his cloak, tied up his arm ropes, and took the fish from Gao Tongshi.
The fish went to the side and became busy.
Gao Tongshi and others sat back down under the thatched hut and chatted around the fire. After just a moment of chatting, the wild fish and seven or eight other snacks were served.
"This is our family's unique sauce." Banqin said, placing several small plates over.
Gao Tongshi picked up the fish fillet and dipped it into his mouth. He hummed and nodded repeatedly. As the fish fillet spread on his lips and tongue, the smile also spread on his face.
"Okay, okay, okay." He said three words in a row.
These words finally made the people around him feel relieved and started laughing.
"I'm afraid these are not enough to eat," one person said jokingly.
"You kid, do you still want me to go fishing for you?" Gao Tongshi said with a smile.
No one had spoken yet, but a clear male voice came from the side.
"My nephew just caught some fish to honor the adults."
Everyone turned to look, slightly surprised.
"Little Qin Lang?" someone blurted out.
Qin Shisanlang saluted them again.
"Thirteen has met the adults," he said.
Gao Tongshi asked him to stand up with a smile on his face. He looked at Qin Thirteenth Lang. Of course he knew who this young man was. Logically speaking, the Gao family and the Qin family were still relatives. They were both relatives of the emperor, but the Jilai family did not.
What contact.
"My nephew has the courage to offer fish because he is greedy. I hope my uncles will not laugh at me." Qin Shisanlang said with a smile.
I see.
But no one answered, everyone looked at Gao Tongshi.
"Just eat it when you're hungry. You're not an outsider, so why should you prepare your own ingredients?" Gao Tongshi said with a smile.
Everyone present laughed and started joking. Qin Shisanlang smiled and handed the fish basket to his entourage. Banqin over there stretched out his hand to take it, looked up at Qin Shisanlang, lowered his head and went about his business.
Naturally, Thirteenth Qin couldn't sit down in front of these elders, so he set up a small table to sit on the side.
Gao Tongshi asked him about his studies with a smile.
"Now that my legs and feet are healed, I can't delay it arbitrarily." He said with a hint of elder care.
"Yes, I have invited a teacher to catch up on my homework. I will end my career in three years, so I took some time off today." Qin Shisanlang said with a smile.
After saying a few words, the fish was ready and served. Qin Shisanlang got up after eating some, thanked him repeatedly and left. Gao Tongshi and others did not want to stay, and watched him leave with the boy.
Banqin here also resigned.
"This cook is really good..."
The cook left, but the people at the table were still talking.
"...Everyone knows that she is very attentive to serving Mr. Zhang, who knows how to maintain healthy diet and prepare meals. Some people have learned her method and made tea soup. I heard that the cold legs that have been cold for many years have been relieved a lot."
After hearing this, Gao Tongshi, who originally didn't care, turned his head.
"Who?" he asked with a frown, "Whose cook is this?"
"This is from Zhang Jiangzhou's family. She is Mrs. Zhang's special cook." The man said.
Zhang Jiangzhou!
Gao Tongshi's face suddenly darkened.
"Sir." The man laughed, "Actually, Jiangzhou helped us last time."
"Did you help convict Wang Butang?" Gao Tongshi snorted.
"But he didn't let Chen Shao and others get what they wanted." Another person said, "Sir, think about it, if Zhang Jiangzhou hadn't stepped in, we might still be torn apart. The longer the delay, the more people and things involved.
many…"
On the contrary, although I am not very satisfied now, I can still stand firm.
Gao Tongshi's expression softened slightly, but he still sneered.
"Then he's not trying to help me," he said.
Of course, everyone only cares for themselves.
"Sir, we don't need him to help us now, as long as he doesn't help others and cause us trouble." The man laughed softly, "And, sir, I went to Zhang's house to borrow a cook this time, but I didn't ask for help.
I asked you to travel with me, the Zhang family, but I agreed without saying anything."
what does that mean?
It means face.
Gao Tongshi's complexion finally improved.
When he returned home in the car, the smile on Gao Tongshi's face had not faded away, and he told the guests about today's events in the study.
"Congratulations, sir. Congratulations, sir." The pilgrims said as they saluted one after another.
Gao Tongshi clicked his tongue.
"A child is greedy for food, and another borrows the help of the cook to cook a fish. What's the point of congratulating him!" He said angrily, "Why are you so surprised?"
"Sir, you can't say that." A Qing guest said, "Does Xiao Qinlang really just want to eat? Does the Zhang family really want to borrow a cook? My lord, you think too little!"
"If it's not this, what else is it?" Gao Tongshi asked with a smile.
"Of course, Your Majesty..." Qingke laughed in a low voice.
The smile on Gao Tongshi's face spread, he twisted his beard and said nothing, but his eyes could not conceal a bit of ecstasy and pride.
That's right, the emperor. Now that the emperor only has his only heir, it's time for the people in the court to think about it.
"Sir, someone is coming from the palace."
The announcement outside the door surprised Gao Tongshi, and he hurriedly asked people to come in. After hearing what the imperial concubine said, Gao Tongshi's face darkened.
"Nonsense!" He raised his eyebrows and shouted in a low voice, "Why are you doing something superfluous! At this time, others are eager to throw dirty water on you, so stay away. If it were before, it would have been worth taking action, but now the big insect has been lost
The minions have become worse than pigs and dogs, so why waste your efforts!"
Just like a goshawk only wants to look at its own equal or higher opponents, and does not need to take a second look at the ants. Now they are the goshawks, and Prince Qing is just like the ants.
This is all fate.
Gao Tongshi couldn't help but smile while stroking Ji Case.
