After rebirth, I became a scumbag and his aunt

Zhao Chen said calmly, "I am doing this out of filial piety. I think the emperor's uncle respects the queen's virtue and cannot bear her suffering from illness."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled, "Exactly."

The two of them had their own thoughts and no longer communicated with each other until they arrived at the palace gate.

Wu Jian bowed forward and said, "Back to your lord, Maidong has gone in to report to the Emperor. I believe there will be a letter soon."

Zhao Chengyuan nodded and looked at the closed palace door with his hands behind his hands.

In about the time it took for a stick of incense to be burned, the palace door opened and the palace residents filed out.

Maidong walked out of the palace gate and greeted Zhao Chengyuan, "Thank you for your kindness. Your Majesty, please give the elixir to your slave."

Zhao Chengyuan took out a small white jade bottle from his purse and handed it to Ophiopogon japonicus, "This pill is very powerful. After taking one pill, the queen must not take a second pill within three days if there is no danger."

Ophiopogon japonicus gave another blessing and said, "I'll spare you the trouble, slave. The imperial doctor is worried that the pills will conflict with the medicinal properties of the decoction taken by the empress. He wants the slave to ask the prince if he knows what medicinal materials are used in the formula of the pills."

Zhao Chengyuan's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a bit of coldness at the end of his eyes.

The person asking this question is probably the emperor. He is unwilling to miss the opportunity to save the queen, but he is also afraid that others will take the opportunity to harm the queen. This sentence may not necessarily reveal the truth, but it can be used to test the truth.

Zhao Chengyuan’s state of mind and intentions.

"The formula is what every family relies on for their livelihood, and I have no way of knowing it. If the imperial doctors think it is inappropriate, there is no need for me to send in the elixir."

His tone was unkind, as if he was suppressing his anger.

The power around Zhao Chengyuan was already overwhelming, but once he became displeased, his momentum became even more overwhelming.

Maidong is a martial arts practitioner and has been under the pressure of the emperor for many years. He has developed a strong heart and will not easily show timidity in front of ordinary people.

But at this time, in front of Prince Jin, she couldn't help but feel a little timid. She took a deep breath slowly, suppressed the unreasonable fear in her heart, and said calmly, "My lord, please don't blame me. The empress has a precious body, and it is the duty of the imperial doctors to do so."

So, you have to proceed with caution."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled faintly, but his smile was not eye-catching, "The girl is right to remind you. I didn't think about this before. The emperor's sister-in-law may have something bad after taking the elixir, and I'm afraid she will be blamed by the imperial doctor."

On my head."

He stretched out his hand and said, "This elixir is just made by wandering Taoist priests walking around the streets. To be on the safe side, the girl should return it to me."

Maidong had a stern look on his face, holding the jade bottle tightly in his hand, but he was reluctant to hand it back.

She asked this question according to the emperor's order, but she didn't want to anger King Jin.

She had heard before that King Jin had a bad temper and looked like he was banishing an immortal, but he was actually the most difficult person to deal with. Now it seems that the rumors are true.

She had high hopes for this pill, hoping that it would save the queen and save her from being buried. If she returned it, not only would she not be able to deal with the emperor, but the queen would...

Thinking of this, Maidong felt panic in his heart and hurriedly explained, "I dare not doubt the prince's intentions. I will go and report it to the emperor now. The emperor can trust the prince."

Zhao Chengyuan said quietly, "I am talking about Taiyuan, not the Imperial Brother. If this pill passes through the hands of Taiyuan, no one can tell if something happens in the future."

His hand moved slightly, but before Maidong could react, there was a sharp pain in his hand, and the jade bottle fell into Zhao Chengyuan's hand.

Maidong looked at his empty hands and had no idea for a moment.

If she went back like this, she would probably die.

Zhao Chengyuan said softly, "Go back and report to the Emperor that I have something to do at the palace, so I will stay here soon."

After saying this, he lifted his feet and walked away.

"Uncle Seventh Emperor, stay."

Zhao Chen said, "Elixirs can be given to orphans, who will taste the medicine after becoming mothers."

All eyes turned to the prince.

When tasting medicine, the queen must have taken both the decoction and this pill. The queen was ill for three days and used countless prescriptions, so the amount of medicine must be very large. Everyone knows the principle that medicine is divided into three parts to poison. Usually, when tasting medicine

They are all lowly maids and eunuchs in the palace. The prince, who has a body of millions of gold, is so willing to risk his life!

Zhao Chengyuan stopped and looked back at him, surprise flashing in his eyes.

"Prince, does he know the rules about tasting medicine?"

"I know." Zhao Chen looked magnanimous, "My mother is seriously ill and she is a single son, so there is no reason to take advantage of others."

If Maidong was pardoned, he hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Highness. I will go and report to the Ming Emperor right now."

After she finished speaking, she hurried back to the palace and closed the palace door.

Maidong turned around the screen wall, knelt down and bowed his head to apologize.

Emperor Qingming stood behind the screen wall with his hands folded, his temples stained with frost, and his gloomy eyes tightened.

Zhao Chengyuan's motive for coming to deliver the elixir this time is really something that people have to be wary of. How could there be such a coincidence that Princess Jin was not feeling well at this time? That was just the reason for him to enter the palace.

But what he said made people a little unsure.

He snatched the pill back so forcefully, but it didn't seem like he was determined to save people.

Emperor Qingming looked up at the palace wall, and heard the faint voices of the prince and Wu Jian urging him to stay outside.

However, Zhao Chengyuan seemed determined not to give any more pills, and actually left.

Emperor Qingming frowned and walked back to the corridor in front of the palace.

He clapped his hands, and two secret guards appeared, kneeling on one knee and saluting, "Your Majesty."

Emperor Qingming said quietly, "Let's go and find out what disease Princess Jin has."

"yes!"

The secret guard took the order and quietly left the palace.

Half a day later, the two secret guards came back to resume their duties.

"Your Majesty, Princess Jin is pregnant."

Emperor Qingming squinted his eyes, "Are you pregnant?"

"Exactly. The envoy of Liu Lao's Home has been asking for peace of mind every day. There are obviously more medicinal materials and meals for nourishing the fetus."

The guard paused for a moment, "That Mr. Liu's envoy is indeed very confused. He sneaked into the Liu Mansion under a lowly position. He was cursing at his four sons, but none of them responded."

Emperor Qingming asked quietly, "What are you scolding?"

The secret guard lowered his lips and reported, "When the envoy of the old hospital heard about Duke Dingguo's request for imperial doctors from all over the capital, he blamed his sons for always trying to undermine him in front of others, making Duke Dingguo think he was confused.

He cannot bear the heavy responsibility. If he can no longer go to the Jin Palace to appreciate Master Xuanzhi's calligraphy and paintings, then he will break away from the father-son relationship with them."

Emperor Qingming rubbed his jade finger, his expression dark and unclear.

It is true to ask an imperial doctor.

He walked out of the palace gate.

Zhao Chen and Wu Jian, who were guarding the door, hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Emperor Qingming looked at Zhao Chen with a gentle look on his face and said, "I have no time these days, and state affairs cannot be delayed. You will supervise the country, and the morning dynasty will resume tomorrow."

Zhao Chen cupped his hands and said in a deep voice, "My son, I accept the order."

He paused and said, "The Queen Mother..."

Emperor Qingming said to Wu Jian, "Go to my private treasury and choose a few things that are available. Go to the Dingguo Palace and invite the King of Jin back. Just say that I have already punished the imperial hospital."

"The slave obeys the order."

Wu Jian bowed his body and stepped back.

Emperor Qingming frowned and looked at the cold palace road, hoping that the elixir was a miracle medicine.

Zhao Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Father, I think that even if the seventh uncle wants to harm his mother, he has no reason to choose this time. After all..."

After all, the Queen is now dead. There is no need for him to do something extra and get into trouble for nothing.

Emperor Qingming naturally understood this truth, so that was not what he was worried about.
