The Legend of Rebirth of the Demon Empress

Chapter 29
The emperor went on to say: "Establishing the crown prince is originally my family's business, but this group of people want to intervene. My son knows what he knows, so how can I allow them to talk about it? A few days ago, my fourth brother came to see me and chatted with me. Say it yourself."

"Well, this son of mine has lost his biological mother since he was a child, and he has not received much protection under the name of the queen. On the contrary, he has attracted a lot of open and dark arrows. He finally grew up, but after a little mischief, he was caught by the queen again. A group of people who are causing trouble are watching, they are willing to let me abolish this son before they are reconciled."

Speaking of his son, the emperor's tone was soft at first, and then his words gradually turned cold: "Speaking of which, even if the fourth brother is messing around again, he is still my son, the prince of this Dayan, and those gang of censors are doing it for some sake. For trivial matters, chasing him every day to participate in the concert, how can I take my face into account? Tell me, should these people kill a group of them?"

Huang Sheng was taken aback when he heard the words. When the Dongping book case broke out eight years ago, he heard the emperor say it once. Then more than a dozen officials were imprisoned and convicted. Hundreds of people were either executed or exiled. It was a bloodbath.

In the following years, no matter the officials, gentry or ordinary people, they dared not mention this matter.

Huang Sheng hurriedly knelt down and replied: "Your Majesty, now that the world is at peace and all directions are peaceful, Your Majesty's benevolent name is broadcast all over the world. If you get angry with a few censors and damage your Majesty's reputation, the loss outweighs the gain. Please think twice, Your Majesty." what!"

The emperor didn't let him get up, thought for a moment, and said lightly: "Old guy, you have been working as the supervisor of ceremonies for more than ten years, have you ever thought about changing positions?"

Huang Sheng understood the emperor's words, he saluted the emperor again, and replied: "As long as the servants can serve the emperor, they can do anything."

"Yesterday, Cao Shouli came to me again to complain, saying that you allowed the people below you to mess around, and made the people in the palace lose their rules. Since I can remember, you have been by my side, and you have done a lot for me over the years. Things, but also bear a lot of ties."

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, took a few steps in the hall, and said in a low voice: "Superintendent of Ceremonies, you can't stay here any longer. Wait for my arrangement these few days. After the Longevity Festival, go to the Imperial Horse Supervisor. You are in charge of the four guards of Tengxiang and Wuxiang, and I feel more at ease."

Hearing that the emperor did not call himself "Zhen" in front of him, Huang Sheng had a sore nose, and respectfully kowtowed to the emperor three times, but he heard the emperor's deep and firm voice: "It's about the survival of the country, and I can no longer be merciful." gone."

Liu Qingyuan and the cabinet ministers waited at the gate of Qianqing Palace until noon, but they didn't see the summons, and murmured in their hearts. After noon, Huang Sheng came out.

Huang Sheng bowed to Liu Qingyuan and saluted, and said: "My lords, I have been waiting for a long time. The emperor is in a bad mood today and is resting inside. The emperor said that if you want to establish a reserve, you can go to the Rites Supervisor to find Mr. Cao first. Come up with an idea before proceeding; if it is to intercede for Han Sichang, then please go back."

The six members of the cabinet looked at each other in blank dismay. Since the emperor took the throne, he had never rejected a cabinet minister. This time, he was obviously angry.

The six discussed a few words, but they didn't dare to provoke the emperor's wrath, so they had to go back to Wenyuan Pavilion together.

Huang Sheng left Qianqing Palace and went back to his residence to change into coarse clothes, but he didn't go back to the Supervisor of Rites and left the palace all the way.

He hailed a green woolen sedan chair at the gate of the palace, and simply ordered: "Go to Huifeng Street."

Seeing Huang Sheng's extraordinary demeanor, the leader of the bearers knew that he was a nobleman in the palace, so he did not ask any more questions, and drove Huang Sheng to Huifeng Street.

Huang Sheng has been in the palace for more than ten years, either on duty in the palace, or going to the East Factory to handle affairs, and the number of times he went out of the palace in casual clothes can be counted on one's fingers.It was the first time for him to visit Huifeng Street, and as soon as he entered the street, he raised the car curtain and looked around the street.

According to the description of the people below, he found a small shop at the end of the street, stopped the sedan chair, threw a piece of silver to the bearer, got off the sedan chair and entered the shop.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw a gray-haired old man and a young girl standing side by side in front of the medicine cabinet, muttering.

Both of them had their backs to the door, and they didn't notice that someone entered the shop, only to hear the girl's crisp voice: "Master, you said that the Qinglong powder and the Qingxincao are both made of Qingshao, why are the medicinal properties different?" How different is it?"

The old man said: "For yin and yang, you can count it to ten, push it to a hundred, count it to a thousand, push it to ten thousand, ten thousand is too big to count, but it needs to be one. The green peony is flat, and the fire makes green dragon chips To yang, water is made into a heart-clearing grass to yin, which is exactly the way of yin and yang."

The old man and the young girl are naturally Sun Duzhong and Lin Zisu.

Huang Shengqing coughed, and when both master and apprentice turned around, he took a look at Lin Zisu and said with a smile, "Old Freak Sun, you abducted the daughter of the Lin family to be your apprentice, aren't you afraid that the Lin family will trouble you?"

"Haha, Old Huang!"

Seeing Huang Sheng for the first time, Sun Duzhong almost jumped up, pointed at Huang Sheng and asked: "How did you get out, the emperor is willing to let you out of the palace?"

Huang Sheng didn't take his words, and said with a smile: "I heard that my old friend lives and lives here in Huifeng Street, and lives very comfortably. I just came to see you."

"If you wanted to see me, I would have come a long time ago, why wait until today?"

Sun Duzhong rolled his eyes and said: "Tell me, what is it that can still work for your boss."

The two were good friends many years ago. Although they haven't seen each other these years, they both know each other's situation.

Huang Sheng pondered for a while, and said: "Old Monster Sun, you have helped me a lot these years. People below the palace call me 'Living Bodhisattva'. Ask yourself, most of this name is from you. , in the future, I probably won’t bother you anymore, so I’m here to express my thanks to you today.”

When Sun Duzhong first saw his old friend from many years ago, he was full of joy, but after hearing Huang Sheng's words, his face was full of astonishment, and he stammered and asked, "You mean you want it?"

He wanted to say what was in his heart, but he was afraid of Lin Zisu's presence, so he didn't say the following words.

Huang Sheng still had a light smile on his face, as if he had understood what Sun Duzhong meant, and nodded to the stunned Sun Duzhong, "That's right, it's exactly what you think."

Sun Duzhong still had an unbelievable expression on his face, and murmured, "Is this... a wind blowing?"

Huang Sheng withdrew his smile, his face turned serious, and said, "Brother Sun, the sky is far away, it's not something we can speculate on our own."

The two started chatting, chatting about old things, from the time they met each other, until Sun Duzhong left the Imperial Hospital, Lin Zisu listened with great interest.

The two chatted for nearly half an hour, and Huang Sheng remembered something.Said: "I came to you, apart from wanting to catch up with you, I actually have something else to ask for your help."

"Don't rush to refuse, listen to me first."

Seeing Sun Duzhong shaking his head, Huang Sheng hurriedly said without waiting for Sun Duzhong to speak: "Xiao Mo told me that Wang Ziheng who sent you here two days ago has no serious burns, but the wound on his body may leave scars. You know the rules in the palace. The old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled don't use it. I guess he is not far away from being released from the palace. If you have an elixir for removing scars, give him some."

Sun Duzhong frowned and said: "Old Huang, you have become a mud bodhisattva, and you still think about compassion, so you are not afraid of getting burned?"

"Wang Ziheng, firstly, the higher-ups wanted to keep his life alive so that it would be of some use in the future; secondly, his experience was similar to mine, so I felt some compassion."

Huang Sheng sighed, and said: "My parents also died when I was young, and I entered the palace in my teens, but I was lucky at that time. I moved melons, fruits and vegetables in the Siyuan Bureau for two years and then entered the East Palace. Later, the emperor succeeded me." I have taken the seat and have been serving the emperor all the time."

"For those of us, the palace is home, and leaving the palace is nothing. That Wang Ziheng is only in his 20s. If he leaves the palace with this injury, he may not live for a few years."

Sun Duzhong was dissatisfied and said: "Old Huang, do you think I am a living god? As the saying goes, there is a specialization in Taoism, and you also know that I am an internal medicine doctor in the Imperial Hospital. I can treat internal injuries such as fire and poison here, and treat external injuries. Even in the Imperial Hospital back then, the only one who could treat both internal and external diseases was my senior brother, and he was my senior brother.”

Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of Lin Zisu standing beside him, and couldn't help but glance at her.

Huang Sheng obviously also thought of this verse, and said: "I heard that the way of medicine is all about inheritance, and the brothers of the same school usually have a lot of contacts. Didn't the senior brother leave any secret recipe when he died?"

Huang Sheng was talking to Sun Duzhong, but his eyes were looking at Lin Zisu. Sun Duzhong replied: "It is my third junior brother who inherits the mantle of my master. Besides, my senior brother left in a hurry. What will you tell me? You I also know that the kid from the Lin family has a deep misunderstanding with me, even if there is a secret recipe, it will not be with me."

The eyes of both of them were on Lin Zisu. Lin Zisu felt the hope of the two of them. After thinking for a long time, she said, "My grandfather did leave some notes, but this burn is a very common disease. There is no special prescription in the notes."

Sun Duzhong spread his hands and said: "Old Huang, you heard it too, no, there is no such secret recipe, not to mention that Wang Ziheng was delayed for too long by the quack doctors of the imperial hospital, it is very normal to have scars."

"Don't make trouble for me. In order to save this Wang Ziheng, I will put my life on the line. Just as I sent him away that day, a few Jin Yiwei's dog legs came to make trouble for me. Those people under your command before I've always looked down on me, but I just don't dare to embarrass me because of your face. Without your support in the future, maybe something will happen again."

Huang Sheng looked at the faces of the master and the apprentice for a moment, and asked: "Old Monster Sun, is there really nothing you can do?"

Lin Zisu bit her lip, and said to Sun Duzhong: "Master, I have some prescriptions for removing scars here, I don't know if they are suitable or not."

When Huang Sheng heard that there was a turning point, he said happily: "Miss Lin, this is great. The medicine left by my ancestors is very good, and the prescriptions left behind will definitely work!"

Sun Duzhong glared at Huang Sheng, and said: "Old Huang! Then Wang Ziheng's wound has not yet healed, so there is no way to get rid of the scar."

Regardless of Huang Sheng's expression, he turned his head and gave Lin Zisu a flattering smile, and said in a low voice, "My dear student, tell your master about this prescription, this is a chance to make a fortune!"

Huang Sheng and Lin Zisu looked at each other in blank dismay, they didn't expect Sun Duzhong to say such a thing, only to hear Sun Duzhong say again: "The supply of this kind of magic medicine must be in short supply, old Huang, based on the two of us Relationship, I can save a few bottles for you."

Lin Zisu couldn't help but laugh. She didn't know how Master came up with this idea. After all, Huang Sheng had a special relationship with Sun Duzhong. He heard a trace of strangeness in his words, and asked tentatively: "Old monster Sun, what can I do?" Order a few bottles in advance, the nobles in the palace may use it."

Sun Duzhong bowed his hands to Huang Sheng symbolically, and said: "It's easy to say, you are a nobleman in the palace, and the shop is pointing at you to make a fortune."

With a solemn expression on his face, Huang Sheng bowed deeply to Sun Duzhong, and Sun Duzhong complied calmly, saying: "With your great gift, we will be even."

Listening to what Sun Duzhong said, Huang Sheng said shamelessly: "I have done some small things for the palace these years, but I have caused a lot of trouble to my old friend. I am really sorry. Old monster, in the future If you can use me, feel free to ask.”

Sun Duzhong gave a strange cry, waved his hands again and again, and said, "Farewell, it's better to say goodbye. It's not easy for you to get along with each other. It's better for us to stay away from each other forever."

Huang Sheng didn't stay any longer, and before leaving, he took another look at Lin Zisu, turned around and left in a hurry.Sun Duzhong stared at the door for a long time, and said to himself: "I'm afraid the capital will not be able to calm down, we have to make plans early."

Lin Zisu frowned when he thought of the conversation between Master Cai and Huang Sheng just now.

Ever since Huang Sheng entered the door, Lin Zisu felt familiar.

There are more than ten million servants in the palace, but Huang Sheng has a high position in the supervisor of ceremonies and is in charge of the affairs of the East Factory. He is a figure second only to Cao Shouli. Lin Zisu naturally has an impression in her last life. She didn't know much about it at first. True, but when I heard the surname "Huang", I thought of such a number one person.

This eunuch who grew up with Emperor Zhengxing, although he was trusted by Emperor Zhengxing, has always kept a low profile, except for conveying some important intentions, he rarely shows up outside the palace.

In the previous life, after Xie Yao obtained the position in the East Palace, Huang Sheng invited himself to guard the spirit of Emperor Lizong. Since then, even if Emperor Zhengxing passed away, there was no news of it, and it disappeared like dust.

Hearing Huang Sheng's tone of voice just now, he thought that he wanted to be like the previous life and relieved of his duties as the supervisor of ceremonies, so he came here to talk about the past with the old friend, and explain the unfinished business by the way.

The arrival of Huang Sheng made Lin Zisu panic inexplicably. He thought that all people and things in this life would undergo unpredictable changes, and Dayan was also developing in a completely different direction.

However, at this time, she found that although this life deviated a lot from the previous life, it overlapped with the previous life at some points, which made her feel confused and panicked.

She remembered some of the things her father had told her in the past few days. The cabinet and the supervisor of ceremonies were fighting tit for tat. Xie Yao was about to be crowned prince.
It seems that all of this will return to the reincarnation of the previous life.
