The emperor was still a little angry when he returned to the palace.
"Whatever Miss Danzhu calls him foster father, the foster father can't ignore it, so let's just ignore it this time."
"He also said that because General Iron Mask died of illness, Miss Danzhu was so sad that she almost died in the cell. Such a filial piety that moved the world."
When the emperor said this, he looked at Eunuch Jinzhong.
"Isn't that right? Then Chen Danzhu almost died. It was not because of any filial piety. He was clearly poisoned because he killed Miss Yao earlier. He thought I was blind and deaf, so easy to deceive? He was lying with confidence and his face was red.
Just say anything to jump."
Although the past half month has witnessed the death of General Iron Mask, a grand funeral, some overt and covert transfers of generals in the three armies and other major events, it is nothing to the emperor who has everything to do. He took the time to investigate the detailed process of Chen Danzhu's murder.
.
Eunuch Jinzhong naturally knew this and sighed softly: "Your Majesty is right, Miss Danzhu really exchanged her life for life and died together. If it weren't for the Sixth Prince, it wouldn't be that she was grieving for the death of General Iron Mask, but Bai Bai.
Those with hair will be sent to those with black hair first."
Why would a white-haired person give a black-haired person a gift? Both of them were obviously black-haired people. The emperor couldn't help but laugh. After laughing, he fell silent again.
The emperor naturally understood the meaning of Eunuch Jinzhong's words. Chen Danzhu was indeed not so arrogant as to disobey the imperial edict and commit murder, but rather to die together. She knew that what she had committed was a capital crime, and she had no intention of living.
One life was exchanged for another. She settled her worries and did not embarrass the emperor. She also died directly, and everything was over.
The emperor was silent for a moment and asked Eunuch Jinzhong: "How is Chen Danzhu? Wang Xian left Yu Rong alone and ran around, guarding someone else's cell, and achieved nothing, right?"
Wang Xianneng was running around all over the place, which was of course the emperor's tacit approval. The third prince Zhou Xuan and Princess Jin Yao took turns coming to him day and night to cry, which made him miserable - in order to sleep peacefully, he only
They were allowed to do whatever they wanted, as long as Chen Danzhu was not taken out of the cell. As for the fact that the cell was decorated like a boudoir by Commander Li, the emperor just pretended not to know.
As an emperor, he is in charge of world affairs, and a prison cell in Jingzhao Mansion is not in his eyes.
Hearing the emperor's question, Eunuch Jinzhong hurriedly replied: "It's getting better. It's finally getting better. I'm finally back from the Palace of Hell. I heard that I can eat on my own." He said and laughed, "It will definitely get better. Except for Doctor Wang, Yuan
The doctor was also brought here by Miss Danzhu's sister. These two doctors are both life-saving doctors selected by His Majesty for the Sixth Prince."
So what? His father's thoughts were sent to his son to save Chen Danzhu's life, and the emperor snorted in his heart.
"Go and take a look." He said, "Now that I've finished other things, it's time for me to interrogate Chen Danzhu."
Yes, we can't delay it any longer. The prince has come here to report back in the past few days. Yao Fu's body has been buried in Xijing by the Yao family. She and Li Liang's son are also well taken care of by the Yao family. Please be at ease, Your Majesty.
——Reminding the emperor overtly and covertly that this matter should come to a conclusion.
Eunuch Jinzhong responded yes.
...
...
I don’t know how Sheriff Li found this cell. Sitting in it, he could see a gardenia tree in full bloom through a small window.
The summer wind blows, the branches and leaves sway, and the fragrance of flowers is scattered in the cell.
Chen Danzhu leaned on the large pillow and couldn't help but sniff it gently.
There was the sound of footsteps outside the cell fence, and then there was a stronger smell of flowers. Two girls walked in holding a few gardenias in their hands.
"Danzhu, we have asked Dr. Yuan." Liu Wei said, "You can smell the gardenia."
Chen Danzhu smiled at them: "You can ask me, I'm also a doctor."
Li Liandao: "It's better to say goodbye, doctors don't heal themselves." As he spoke, he skillfully took out a stoneware vase from the cabinet, scooped water from a bucket on the side, arranged the gardenias, and placed them on Chen Danzhu's table.
bedside.
Liu Wei sat down and looked at Chen Danzhu's face, and nodded with satisfaction: "It's much better than the previous two days."
Just as Li Liang was about to sit down, a gentle call came from outside the door, "Sister, sister."
Li Lian turned around and saw someone poking his head through the crack in the door, seemingly curious but embarrassed to come in.
"It's my brother." Li Lian said to Chen Danzhu and Liu Wei, got up and walked out.
The footsteps were soft, and the brother and sister were gone. Liu Wei and Chen Danzhu were talking in low voices. Soon there was a rapid sound of footsteps outside, and Li Lian pushed the door open and came in with bright eyes: "Guess who is here?"
Nowadays, only a handful of people can come to visit Chen Danzhu. Well, it was the same before.
Liu Wei glanced at Chen Danzhu. She and Li Lian were here. That must be Zhou Xuan or the third prince. When Chen Danzhu was seriously ill and comatose, Zhou Xuan and the third prince often came here, but Danzhu woke up.
They never came back after that.
Before Liu Wei and Chen Danzhu could guess, the person behind Li Lian couldn't wait to come in. When he saw this person, Chen Danzhu, who was half lying on the bed, sat up with a cry and got out of bed immediately: "Zhang Yao - you
how--"
The dusty young man with a dusty face immediately rushed over to her, waving his hands at her as if to stop her from getting up, and opened his mouth but said nothing.
"Mr. Zhang was in such a hurry and tired that he couldn't make any sound out of his throat." Li Lian said from behind. "Just now I rushed to the Yamen to break in. I was making gestures and taking out paper to write, but I almost got messed up by the official."
Beat him with a stick, but luckily my brother hasn't left yet and recognized him."
Although Zhang Yao was granted an official position by the emperor and was once one of Chen Danzhu's most angry figures, he left the capital immediately because he did not have outstanding literary talent during the competition and was appointed by the emperor to repair water canals.
For such a long time, no one in the capital has mentioned the legend about him, let alone known him.
Chen Danzhu became even more anxious. He pulled Zhang Yao and asked him to sit down. He asked him to check his pulse and asked him to open his mouth and stick out his tongue to check——
Zhang Yao broke away from her and waved, standing and waving his hands in gestures——
Li Lian smiled and came over with a pen and paper: "Mr. Zhang, here is a pen and paper. Write down what you want to say."
Zhang Yao hurriedly took it, not forgetting to express his thanks to her in the rush. Li Lian smiled and stepped aside, watching Zhang Yao write and show it to Chen Danzhu, "I'm fine. I saw the doctor on the way. I'll be fine in two days."
"
Chen Danzhu said: "The doctors on the road are not as good as me -"
Liu Wei held her down: "Danzhu, no matter how powerful you are, you are still a patient. I will take my brother to let Dr. Yuan take a look."
Doctor Yuan, Chen Danzhu's body has relaxed. That was the doctor brought by her sister. His contribution to his ability to wake up is also due to him.
Liu Wei gave up her seat to Zhang Yao, and Li Lian handed him another cup of tea. Zhang Yao was not polite and drank it all.
"You were very ill earlier, and I was really worried, so I wrote to my brother to tell you." Liu Wei said at the side.
No matter how hateful Chen Danzhu is in the eyes of the world, to Zhang Yao she is a life-saving and great benefactor.
If something unfortunate happens, Zhang Yao will definitely want to see Chen Danzhu one last time.
"I just didn't expect you to come back so quickly, brother," Liu Wei said, "I haven't had time to write to you to say that Danzhu is awake and the situation is not that critical anymore. Please don't rush on your way."
Chen Danzhu looked at Zhang Yao sitting in front of him. He recognized him at first sight, but now he looked a little unfamiliar. The young man had lost a lot of weight, and because he was rushing day and night, his eyes were red and his mouth was wet.
Cracked - Compared to when we first met in the rain, Zhang Yao now looks more like he is seriously ill.
Chen Danzhu's face was full of distress: "I made you worry, I'm fine."
Zhang Yao waved his hand to her and said, "As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."
The whole person was as soft as a deflated rubber ball on the chair.
