Chapter 8 I'll Take My Daughter Back First
Hall of Mental Cultivation.

All the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital of the Inner Palace gathered together to diagnose Emperor Ming Xi's pulse.

Everyone in the outer hall waited silently.

At this time, Prince Yu Murongtang and Prime Minister Jiang Peiyuan walked in from outside the hall.

Wen Dinghou Dugu Che asked: "Prince Yu, Prime Minister Jiang, what is the situation of the people in the imperial capital?"

Prince Yu and Jiang Peiyuan looked at each other, Jiang Peiyuan stepped forward and bowed back, "Return to Lord Hou, just now Prince Yu and I have gone to Qiankun Gate to post the imperial list."

"I would like to tell the people that the emperor has been worrying about government affairs for several months, and the people are worried about hunger and cold in the twelfth lunar month. As a result, they have become sick from overwork and have headaches. Now the imperial physician has stabilized the emperor's condition and will recover soon."

"Another edict to the people and the emperor will let Qin Tianjian choose another auspicious day to hold the queen canonization ceremony."

"Marquis Wu'an, Marquis Wending, do you think this king's arrangement is good?" Prince Yu Murongtang asked the two of them.

"Very good! My lord, you are very thoughtful and you have arranged very well. Prime Minister Jiang is the emperor's right-hand man. This is the blessing of the sage." Wending Marquis Dugu Che nodded and said.

Xiao Jingpeng, Marquis of Wu'an also nodded and said: "That's right, now that the emperor is still awake, it is very important to appease the people. Prince Yu and Prime Minister Jiang have worked hard."

Xiao Jinxi who was on the side remained silent, but sneered in his heart, Jiang Peiyuan, you really deserve to be the wise man of Emperor Mingxi!

A countermeasure was arranged in a short period of time, but if you want to change the hearts of the people with this paper, you think highly of yourself!

Tens of thousands of eyes on Yuxiu Peak watched, even though they couldn't hear what Emperor Ming Xi said at that time.

But the bloody scenes created by Emperor Mingxi on the Temple of Heaven, how can you be the one who can easily obliterate with a piece of imperial list.

Prince Yu Murongtang turned his head towards Xiao Jinxi and bowed and asked, "Empress Empress, do you think this arrangement is appropriate?"

I saw Xiao Jinxi saluting and replied: "Prince Yu is polite, please call me Jinxi."

"Now that the canonization ceremony has not yet taken place, the empress really dare not bear it. Jin Xi is a girl who doesn't understand government affairs. Everything depends on the prince."

It is true that the canonization ceremony and wedding ceremony have not been held, and it is not easy for Prince Yu to insist.

So he could only say: "Miss Jinxi, you are welcome! The emperor's decree is still there, and I will give you an explanation for everything after the emperor wakes up."

"You are tired too, why don't I ask Eunuch Li to arrange a bed for you, His Royal Highness, to take a rest, okay?"

Marquis Wu'an heard the words and said: "What Xi'er said is very true. Since it is not a ritual, it is not easy to violate the ancestral system."

"Xi'er likes to wield knives and guns since she was young, and she is used to being wild. This is not too tiring for her. When the emperor's condition stabilizes, it is good to go back to the residence to rest."

Xiao Jinxi nodded to Prince Yu, and said, "Thank you, lord, Jinxi, what father said is true."

"Go back to the mansion? Marquis Wu'an, what do you mean?" Marquis Wending Dugu Che said.

Marquis Wu'an threw the ground to Marquis Wending and said loudly: "Since I return to Marquis Wu'an's mansion, Marquis Wending, this Marquis has something to say, since it is not a ritual, it is not good to violate the ancestral system."

"Then there is a reason why the daughter of the boudoir stays outside, so the Marquis must take her home first."

Turning around and looking at Prince Yu again, he said, "Prince Yu, do you think what Benhou said is wrong?"

"This... what Marquis Wu'an said is reasonable." Prince Yu replied helplessly.

"Since that's the case, it's really difficult for Ben Hou to say anything. Don't blame the Marquis of Wu'an." Wending Marquis said with a smile.

"Since Marquis Wu'an said so, this king can't force it." Prince Yu could only reply.

Knowing that Marquis Wu'an has always protected his weaknesses, let alone this beloved daughter, it is estimated that none of Marquis Wu'an's sons has been favored by this daughter.

Then he changed the subject and asked, "I don't know how the imperial physician is doing the pulse diagnosis inside? How is the emperor's situation now?"

"Uncle Si Huang, the situation of the emperor is still unknown, and the imperial physicians are still inside." King Rui Murong Rui replied.

The atmosphere in the hall was dignified again, but everyone had different expressions.

After a while, a group of imperial doctors led by Kang Shaoqian came out from the inner hall.

"I've seen the prince and the marquis." Kang Shaoqian and the others bowed to everyone in the inner hall.

"Yuanzheng, excuse me, how is your majesty doing now?" Prince Yu Murong Tang said.

The court official, Kang Shaoqian, bowed and replied: "Prince Huiyu, just now the officials and others have diagnosed the emperor's pulse and performed acupuncture. The emperor's condition is stable now. If it is soon, he will wake up in the evening, and if it is slow, he will wake up in the morning."

Marquis Wu An asked: "Why does the emperor suddenly have a retrograde meridian, can you find the reason?"

Kang Shaoqian bowed and said eloquently: "Back to Lord Hou, there are roughly three situations in which meridians go retrograde."

"One is that the patient has a hidden disease and can get sick when stimulated by special circumstances, but the emperor does not have this hidden disease."

"Secondly, someone intentionally used the needle to reverse the meridians, but the emperor should have no one close to him at that time."

"In addition, I just did a full-body examination for the emperor, and found no other abnormal pinholes, so this possibility should not be too great."

"Third, improper methods of martial arts practice lead to unstable breathing, and excessive accumulation will eventually cause meridian retrograde."

"This... the lower official has already asked Eunuch Li just now, but Eunuch Li is not clear about it, so... we can only find out after the emperor wakes up."

Upon hearing this, Prince Yu asked angrily: "Li Yue, you have been serving the emperor all day long, yet you don't know how the emperor is practicing?"

Hearing the words, Eunuch Li was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed, "Prince Yu atones for your sins! The servant really doesn't know!

"Every time the emperor enters the training room, he doesn't need a servant to accompany him, and the servant can't help it. The servant doesn't know that the matter will be so serious, the prince atones, the prince atones..."

Prince Yu said angrily: "Forget it, your head is placed on your neck first, you must guard the emperor carefully."

In fact, he also knew that Emperor Mingxi liked to practice martial arts since he was a child, and he was also the best martial artist among his brothers.

Back then Emperor Mingxi had no support from his mother's family, but he was able to stand out from all his brothers, and he didn't know how many things in between.

"Yes yes yes, the slave obeys the order, and must stay with the emperor for a moment, thank you, thank you, my lord!" Li Yue kowtowed gratefully.

"Yuanzheng, you must stay by the emperor's side at all times, and there must be no more accidents." Marquis of Wu'an ordered Kang Shaoqian and others.

"Your Majesty obeys orders." Only then did everyone leave for the inner hall one by one.

"Prince Yu, now it seems that we can only find out what happened when the emperor wakes up." Wen Dinghou said.

Marquis Wu An also said with a sad face: "Now that the Holy Majesty has just ascended the throne, such things happen, and it is always bad for Sheji."

"In the future, I need to trouble Prince Yu to talk to the emperor more. King Rui, King Qing, and others are the emperor's siblings, but we need to persuade the emperor more."

"I will try my best, I'm afraid... I can't do what I want!" Prince Yu looked up at the inner hall and said with emotion.

King Rui and King Qing nodded silently, but they thought that the emperor could be persuaded by them.

The implication is that everyone has silently attributed the madness of Emperor Ming Xi to the retrograde flow of meridians caused by improper martial arts practice.

at dusk.

"The emperor is awake! The emperor is awake! Your lord, the emperor is awake!" Eunuch Li's shrill voice came from the inner hall, and Li Yue ran happily to the outer hall, shouting as he ran.

"My lord, the emperor is awake!"

"Come on, let's go and have a look." Prince Yu stepped into the inner hall first.

Marquis Wu An turned his head to look at Xiao Jinxi's siblings and said, "Yu'er, wait here with Xi'er to be your father."

"Yes, father." The two nodded back.

Looking at the people going away, Dugu Ziyan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Brother Heng Yu, Miss Jinxi, you have worked hard today." But his eyes kept staring at Xiao Jinxi thoughtfully.

Xiao Jinxi looked up at Duguziyan without hesitation, and said, "Young Master Wending, please be polite. It is the duty of a subject to worry about the king."

"Your Majesty, haven't you been here to guard His Majesty and worry about His Majesty?"

"What my sister said is very true. She is all worried about the king. Why do you say it is so hard." Xiao Hengyu turned to look at Duguziyan and said.

Today, the two founding marquis' mansions have long since lost the harmony they had at the beginning, and there is only superficial harmony.

All three were silent and did not say any more.

inner hall.

"See Your Majesty."

Looking at the people in the hall, Emperor Mingxi on the imperial bed slowly came back to his senses.

Standing up, he said: "All the ministers are free of courtesy. Just now, the courtyard has informed me about the altar, which made all the dear ones worry."

Wen Dinghou heard the words and replied: "Your Majesty, it is the duty of a minister to worry about the king, and please take care of the dragon's body!"

Prince Yu also asked with concern: "Your Majesty, how do you feel now?"

"Your Majesty, you must take care of the dragon's body." Marquis Wu An also said.

"I'm fine. The imperial physician is taking good care of me. You can rest assured." Emperor Mingxi looked at the crowd and nodded.

Then he turned his head to look at Marquis Wu An and asked, "I don't know how Xi'er is?"

Marquis Wu An's eyes narrowed and he bowed back: "Back to the emperor, the little girl was shocked, and I let her rest in the outer hall, thank you for your concern."

Emperor Mingxi said again: "Marquis Wu'an, I have wronged the queen in today's matter. Afterwards, I will let Qin Tianjian choose another auspicious day to hold the canonization ceremony."

Marquis Wu'an bowed again and replied: "I obey the order, Your Majesty, but please be sure to put the dragon's body first."

"Let the imperial physician take care of the emperor's health first, the emperor will never be able to live without you."

The corner of Emperor Mingxi's mouth twitched, listening to Marquis Wu'an's words, he knew in his heart that before his body recovered, this empress seal would not work.

Zhu Zhu said: "I know that I have made Aiqing worry, don't worry, I will definitely not treat the queen badly."

Marquis Wu An bowed again and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"In addition, I have something to report to the emperor. Since it is not a ceremony today, it is not good to violate the ancestral system. It is not good for the youngest daughter, Jin Xi, to stay outside."

"I implore the emperor to let the minister take his daughter home first." Marquis Wu An seemed to be requesting, but his tone was firm.

Emperor Ming Xi frowned and stared at Marquis Wu An, but what he said was well-founded, and he said that it was not good to violate the ancestral system.

In the end, Emperor Ming Xi could only say: "Okay, I'm sure, and I ask Marquis Wu'an to take good care of the queen on my behalf."

"I obey the order, thank you, Your Majesty." Marquis Wu An bowed again and replied.

Thinking of those tens of thousands of eyes on Yuxiu Peak, Emperor Ming Xi frowned again.

Turning to look at Jiang Peiyuan, he asked, "Pei Yuan, tell me about the current situation in the imperial capital?"

"I obey the order, Your Majesty..."

Xiao Jinxi, who was sitting in the outer hall, heard the sound of Xi'er from the inner hall, clenched his hands under his sleeves for an instant, but his face was always calm, Murong Xuan, in his previous life, it was this sound of Xi'er that fascinated me eyes!Eaten my heart!

After a while, Xiao Jinxi finally loosened his hands slowly.

An hour later, the discussion in the inner hall ended, and everyone asked to leave one by one.

Marquis Wu'an ordered to Li Yue: "Eunuch Li, please prepare a soft sedan chair for my little girl."

"Yes, Lord Hou, please wait a moment." Li Yue led the order to make arrangements.

"Xi'er, Yu'er, let's go home." "Yes, father." The three of them slowly walked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Father, Luoer and the others?" Xiao Jinxi asked.

"Sister, don't worry, I have already arranged for them to return to the mansion first." Xiao Hengyu said to Xiao Jinxi dotingly.

"That's good, I know that brother is the most careful." Xiao Jinxi replied with a knowing smile.

"Go back to the mansion first, be careful what you say in the palace." Marquis Wu An scolded in a low voice.
