Chapter 506 Everyone is evil
"His Majesty!"
Zhou Jushan and the secret guards saw Emperor Qingning vomiting blood and looking terrified.
Zhou Jushan excitedly ordered the leader of the secret guards: "Quick, quick, call the imperial physician!"
Emperor Qingning covered his heart and saw the blood on the table. A panicked expression appeared on his face. He quickly ordered: "Call Imperial Physician Qi over for me!"
The secret guard was in a hurry to leave, and Sect Leader Zhou Jushan quickly reminded him: "Remember to quietly go through the side door and don't let anyone find you!"
"Remember not to let this matter leak out."
After hearing this, Emperor Qingning nodded hurriedly: "Yes, no one else can know that I vomited blood."
He glanced at Zhou Jushan and felt lucky: "You are so thoughtful. I almost forgot."
Zhou Jushan used a handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of Emperor Qingning's mouth, and called other secret guards to deal with all the bloody memorials.
"Your Majesty, these memorials are splattered with blood. I will make a new copy for you tonight."
Emperor Qingning waved his hands weakly: "Whatever, these ministers keep repeating the same old things over and over again, and I just feel bored when I read them. You can deal with these things however you want."
Soon, squad leader Qi Yun came in from the secret passage brought by the secret guards.
He pretended to feel the pulse of Emperor Qingning and asked, "Your Majesty, have you been sleepy, chest tightness, weakness in your hands and feet, fever in your palms and soles, and restlessness recently?"
Emperor Qingning was surprised and said, "As expected of you, Imperial Physician Qi. You haven't seen me in the past few days, but you described my current situation so accurately."
Qi Yun smiled and said nothing. He knew the symptoms of the medicine best since he was the one who prescribed it.
"How is my physical condition now?"
Emperor Qingning looked at Qi Yun, feeling uneasy.
"Your Majesty, you just expelled the poisonous blood that was blocked in your body. This is a good thing, but the process is a bit scary."
"But when scraping bones to cure poison, the scarier it is, the deeper the lesion is, and the greater the body's reaction will be."
Qi Yun never thought that he, who graduated from one of the top medical schools in the country, would one day be able to use such rhetoric to sell health products and deceive the elderly.
But the actor in the class was not just talking. His calm face and in-depth analysis made Emperor Qingning feel more reliable.
"It turns out to be a good thing, but it scared me."
Qi Yun nodded slightly: "Your Majesty, you must keep your body and mind comfortable these days, and don't get angry anymore. Let Eunuch Zhou find you something fun and interesting to do, so that you can relax and your dragon body will get better and better."
"Good good!"
Emperor Qingning had a ruddy complexion. He felt his own excited state and thought that he was much better now compared to when he was depressed just now.
Zhou Jushan took advantage of the situation and suggested, "Your Majesty, I heard that Princess Jin got something interesting and wants to give it to you as a gift. Do you want to ask Princess Jin to bring it to you now?"
"Okay!"
Emperor Qingning nodded in agreement. The gifts given by Hou Xiaoxiao, the richest man in the capital, had never disappointed anyone.
"Let Princess Jin come over."
Thinking that the Princess of Jin was now living in the Queen Mother's Palace, Emperor Qingning said, "Please ask the Queen Mother to come as well."
Zhou Jushan stepped out: "Okay! Slave, I'll go and invite you right away~"
As soon as Zhou Jushan came out of the imperial study, he saw Xia Su waiting outside.
As soon as Xia Su saw Zhou Jushan, he subconsciously smiled and said, "Eunuch Zhou, is His Majesty free now?"
Zhou Jushan flicked the whisk in his hand and smiled slightly: "If it is Lord Xia, you want to see His Majesty, I'm afraid there is no one."
Xia Su's smile froze on his face: "What does this mean, Eunuch Zhou?"
Let him speak, he stuffed a bag of silver into Zhou Jushan’s pocket.
Zhou Jushan weighed it over and felt that he was becoming more and more like a treacherous minister.
"Lord Xia must have come here because of the incident that happened to the grassland envoys today."
"Your Majesty already knows about this. Don't mention this matter in front of His Majesty again."
Zhou Jushan lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty was so angry about this matter that he vomited blood. If you bring it up again now, if there is any loss, Lord Xia, it will not only be you who will be implicated."
"If you can afford this price, then go ahead and tell me."
After hearing this, Xia Su broke out in a cold sweat: "Thank you, Eunuch Zhou, for your advice!"
He was filled with gratitude and said, "I left in a hurry today and only brought this much silver with me. I will treat Eunuch Zhou to tea next time."
There is nothing to report about the rumor that Xin Ningyu is the Valkyrie of the grassland.
"But today, Eunuch Zhou, I have a new discovery."
Xia Su told Zhou Jushan everything he saw in Prince Zhao's mansion, "Please, Eunuch Zhou, talk to Your Majesty when Your Majesty calms down."
After listening to Xia Su's random analysis, Zhou Jushan actually understood that Yan Chaoyue brought Xin Ningyu back as a humiliation to King Zhao. Great, this way of thinking is really talented!
"Lord Xia has a very insightful opinion! I will report it to His Majesty!"
Xia Su felt embarrassed by Zhou Jushan's praise and left the palace complacently.
At this time, the commander of the secret guards also arrived. He was unsure of the emperor's intention, especially since the emperor had just vomited blood. "Eunuch Zhou, because your majesty vomited blood, I have something else that I have not had time to report to your majesty."
"The woman brought back by the grassland Khan looks very much like the third daughter of the Xin family. Rumor has it that this woman is the legendary grassland Valkyrie."
Zhou Jushan lowered his voice and said earnestly, "You have excellent hearing ability. I believe you have heard what I said to persuade Lord Xia just now. No need for me to repeat it again?"
"Rumors are just rumors, and they have not been confirmed. What good will it do for you to tell His Majesty about these hearsay things now?"
"It doesn't matter whether it is or not. The answer will be revealed at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet."
The leader of the secret guards suddenly realized what was going on: "Thank you, Eunuch Zhou, for your advice."
Zhou Jushan gathered a group of people and went to the Cining Palace to invite the empress dowager and Hou Xiaoxiao over.
A large iron cage covered with red cloth was moved into the imperial study.
In the royal study.
Hou Xiaoxiao pointed with the golden Sichuan embroidered fan in her hand: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, this is the Mid-Autumn Festival gift that I found."
When the Emperor and the Empress Dowager heard Hou Xiaoxiao talking about giving gifts, their eyes lit up instantly.
"My dear granddaughter-in-law, you have already given me and the emperor a lot of gifts during your time in the palace. How can I let you spend more money?"
The Queen Mother looked at the two-meter-high iron cage and her smile deepened: "What is such a big gift?"
Hou Xiaoxiao clapped her hands.
The two guards immediately pulled down the red cloth.
There was a iron-eating beast in the cage!
The Empress Dowager and the Emperor were frightened by the iron-eating beast in the cage at first, but when they saw that the iron-eating beast was holding a brush in its hand and painting on rice paper, their fright turned into surprise.
"The iron-eating beast can actually paint? Could it be a spirit?"
Hou Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "I heard that the barbarians on the grassland are very arrogant, but a vulgar person is a vulgar person, and he has no knowledge at all."
"Your Majesty, why don't you hold a painting session at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet and have both sides send representatives to paint."
"Then we will send this iron-eating beast to paint. I'm sure the paintings it can create will be more elegant and beautiful than those of the grassland man!"
Hou Xiaoxiao was so excited when she spoke that Emperor Qingning became more and more excited the more he listened.
"The arrogant grassland people can't paint better than me, Dasheng, a bird of prey. If this gets out, people will definitely laugh their heads off, and it will also dampen their arrogance!"
