Chapter 52 Past

Outside Chengqian Hall, the old man was wearing a bright yellow monk's robe and saluted Emperor Yong: "Amitabha. I have seen Your Majesty."

“…Forgive an elder?”

Emperor Yong was a little surprised to recognize the person.

He often went to Ning'an Temple and had some communication with Elder Shuyi. Elder Shuyi was born in troubled times. When the late emperor was in power, he participated in the imperial examination. After some reason, he did not enter the court as an official, but became a monk instead.

Elder Shu Yi sighed and said, "When I was young, my family opened a clinic. I have been influenced by it since I was a child. I have read some miscellaneous books and have some medical skills. I heard that Your Majesty was sending someone to inquire about Han Chunhua. I want to know the situation of the empress dowager and see if I can help."

It is really unheard of that Elder Shu Yi knows medical skills. Shu Yao and Elder Shu Yi have known each other for many years. In my impression, they are just a strange old man who is obsessed with mountains and rivers. He can hold a scroll and draw by the lake all day. How did Li Mingji invite him?

"Okay, okay, of course," Emperor Yong's face added a little smile. "The elder has been staying in the palace these days. I will arrange for the eunuch to be with the elder, the Imperial Hospital and the Sutra Library. If the elder needs it, let the eunuch take you in."

"Your Majesty is so serious," said Elder Shu Yi, "I just heard Ming Ji say that it is probably not sure about curing the disease and detoxifying. Please don't be too optimistic."

Emperor Yong looked at Li Mingji in a complicated manner, his face calmed a little, "Nothing is wrong. It is enough for the elder to have this kind of heart. Come with me."

In Yanshou Palace, the Empress Dowager was still sleeping in the bedroom. After Shuyi's elder finished his meridian, Emperor Yong quickly came forward and asked in a low voice: "How? I heard from the palace servant that my mother was sleeping all morning and could not wake up, but something went wrong?"

Elder Shuyi shook his head, but his tone was rare to be serious, "The Queen Mother vomited medicine last night, which hurt her qi and blood, and took some medicines to calm the mind. The time of sleeping will naturally be longer. However, I have indeed seen pulses similar to the Queen Mother in the past, so I should try it. I have to go to the Imperial Hospital first to get the medicine and apply acupuncture for the Queen Mother."

Emperor Yong said good things repeatedly.

"Since the elder has a solution, Mingji, I will send the princess back to the palace to rest first. Yaoyao doesn't have to worry. If there is anything, I will order the palace servant to pass on the message."

It can be seen that Emperor Yong was in a bad mood, so Shu Yao naturally had no need to stay for a long time, so he said well.

Emperor Yong closed his eyes, and the haze in his eyes dissipated.

Although the Empress Dowager was not his biological mother, in the years when Emperor Yong ascended the throne, he learned many rare qualities from the Empress Dowager. He has always respected her very much and has long regarded her as his second mother. His condition is turning a little bit, and his tense heart has finally relaxed a little.

He had been waiting for the opportunity before, and then he was still not moving, swallowing and drinking like twenty years ago. But the successive blows made Emperor Yong realize that repeated tolerance would only bring illusions to those who are interested, making them mistakenly think that it was still twenty years ago.

In order to win people's hearts, he once dispersed too much power to the aristocratic families and officials, and it was time for him to take it back.

...

When I returned to Huaxi Palace, the haze around me disappeared a little. The girl who had originally wrinkled her face seemed to have come alive and patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, "Uncle was so scared to death today."

Her tone was exactly like acting cute. Li Mingji curled the corners of his lower lips with enjoyment, and his face remained calm: "Hmm?"

In fact, he watched the whole process outside the door, and was not surprised.

The Xie family once followed the late emperor to fight south and north, and made great achievements, which made such an honor and became the largest family in the capital after the royal family. However, they were insatiable and had too strong aggression, which had long caused dissatisfaction with Emperor Yong.

Zhang Sheng was dealt with last night. Emperor Yong was righteous and Xie Hong relied on his old age and tried to force Emperor Yong to marry him with his former love. Isn’t this self-destruction?

Xie Hong also regarded himself as the crown prince's tutor and the emperor personally appointed as the general of the auxiliary country. However, twenty years have passed, and Emperor Yong has long been the short emperor.

"My uncle got angry for me today, but Xie Yanzhou deserves it. Who made him shameless and wanted to marry me?" Shu Yao snorted coldly, "This is how he is. He has never heard of my opinion since he was a child. The husband I find in the future will definitely be obedient to me. If I ask him to go east, he will never go west."

Li Mingji had a gentle look: "Okay."

Shu Yao did not notice that Li Mingji was echoing her. After talking to herself, she changed the topic: "How do you know that Su Yi's Presbyterian's medical skills? Can he cure his grandmother well?"

She remembered Elder Shuyi and Li Mingji were also masters and apprentices? Did he teach Li Mingji even this?

Li Mingji said: "I will tell you a story to the princess."

story?

Shu Yao was aroused of curiosity. How could he keep it a secret? This is not his style.

"There is a clinic outside the outskirts of the capital. The eldest son was talented and passed the imperial examination at a young age. He went to Beijing to take the palace examination. He met his sweetheart and agreed with her that the two of them got married after the spring examination was released."

The young man's voice was like a gurgling mountain spring, low and pleasant, Shu Yao's heart was also itchy, "What?"

Isn’t it just that a talented man and a beautiful woman have made a good story? What’s so rare? She has seen a lot of them in her book.

"The eldest son passed the Jinshi exam and asked to marry his lover. The two agreed on a marriage date. On the night of the wedding, the groom and the bride celebrated, opened the veil and found that the bride was not his lover, but a strange maid. The real bride was attracted by the emperor and sent to the harem."

Shu Yao opened her mouth, "Then..."

Li Mingji said calmly: "The groom regrets marriage and becomes a monk, and goes to become a monk. The bride becomes the emperor's favorite concubine, and later, she becomes the queen mother."

Although the late emperor was a hero who unified the world, he was deserted, lustful, and lustful, and had a lot of things to force and occupy women from good families. Like the empress dowager, he was a concubine in the family, and it was not uncommon to be sent to the harem as a tool to please the late emperor.

In addition, after the late emperor unified the world, he believed that the country would sit firmly, and would have fun with his concubines in the palace all day long, and would die in the harem at the time of his prime.

I could think of Elder Shu Yi because of the severe epidemic in the capital in his previous life. Elder Shu Yi took the lead in going down the mountain, saying that he knew some medical skills and saved many wounded people. On his dying day, he did not see anyone and wrote a suicide note left to Li Mingji, recording this past event.

That was the first time Li Mingji heard Elder Shu Yi mention his past.

Li Mingji was cold-hearted and cold-blooded, and he would no longer be moved by these stories. The little princess in front of him had red eyes: "Grandmother..."

The Queen Mother is the gentlest and kindest woman she has ever seen. She thought the Queen Mother had such a personality, but she didn't know that there were so many past events behind it.

Li Mingji frowned helplessly, raised his fingers, and pressed Shu Yao's eyes.

Li Mingji, who made his wife cry but couldn't coax people: worry.jpg
