Your Majesty, Madam, she is not a human being

Chapter 71 In The Gu
"Those were prepared by the civil and military officials and the people themselves." The prince introduced, pointing to the tables and chairs on the road.

Song Jiyang glanced at it and smiled lightly: "It seems that the prince has put a lot of thought into it."

The prince said modestly: "No, it's not worth mentioning."

While talking, several people came to the palace.The emperor was already waiting in the main hall. After the prince led the generals and their families to pay homage to the emperor, he was given a seat by the emperor.

Before the banquet started, the emperor asked about the battle on the frontier. After hearing the final outcome, the emperor nodded happily: "Very good, Jiyang, you have done a great job, I am very pleased!"

After a pause, he remembered something again and looked at Huo Qingluan, who was standing next to Song Jiyang dressed as a woman: "You are the eldest lady of the Huo family, Huo Qingluan."

Huo Qingluan stood up quickly and bowed respectfully: "Huo Qingluan, a citizen girl, would like to send my regards to His Majesty."

The emperor smiled: "No need to give in. You and Jiyang are an unmarried couple, so I should call you 'Qingluan'. Qingluan, I heard that you once broke into the Beidi army alone and captured several Beidi soldiers?"

Huo Qingluan was slightly startled. He didn't expect that his great feat would be spread out and even be known to the emperor.Her eyes fell on the emperor's dragon robe, and she lowered her eyes gently: "I don't dare to be a civilian girl."

The emperor laughed and said, "What's wrong with this? I was worried at the time that you didn't value reuse as rumored, but now it seems I've really misunderstood you."

Huo Qingluan pursed his lips and smiled: "Your Majesty is so complimentary."

"No, what I said was not a compliment to you, but the truth." The emperor said with a smile.

After some pleasantries, the emperor announced the start of the dinner.

Because it was a reward for the three armies, the emperor specially ordered the cook to cook all the special dishes of the imperial kitchen and distribute them.

For a time, the whole palace was filled with joy.

Huo Qingluan drank the soup from the bowl, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach. She covered her chest and retched several times.

Song Jiyang immediately noticed something strange about her, quickly put down his chopsticks, and held her waist: "What's wrong?"

Huo Qingluan spit out two mouthfuls of sour water and waved his hands: "It's okay, maybe I ate the wrong thing."

Song Jiyang frowned, lowered his head, and looked at her face carefully.Her skin was pale and her cheeks were red, which was obviously a symptom of high body temperature, but it didn't look like she had a bad stomach.

Song Jiyang carried her out without thinking. As he walked, he said to the little eunuch waiting next to him: "Please go and confess to your Majesty, father-in-law."

Huo Qingluan wanted to refuse, but was shocked by his firm attitude and could only let him hold her obediently.

Song Jiyang went straight back to his mansion and shouted out the door: "Ling Gang, call Situ Jing over here!"

Ling Gang was stunned for a moment, but he didn't dare to delay and immediately turned around and ran away.

Not long after, Situ Jing came to Song Jiyang with Ling Gang, saluted and said: "I see you, Master!"

"Quick, show me her!" As he said that, he handed Huo Qingluan in his arms to him.

"Yes, I obey." Situ Jing stretched out his hands and placed them on Huo Qingluan's pulse. After a moment, he raised his head with a solemn expression: "Master... the mistress seems to have been poisoned!"

At this time, Ling Gang's eyes widened in surprise, not believing his ears at all.

Song Jiyang felt dizzy, staggered and almost fell down. Fortunately, Ling Gang held him in place so he wouldn't lose his composure.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked tremblingly: "Are you sure?"

"Yes. My subordinates have diagnosed that the poison is fed with human blood, and the antidote must be taken every few days. There are only three months of poison left in the mistress's body."

Song Jiyang felt desperate and murmured: "Impossible, how could this happen?"

Ling Gang frowned: "Maybe there is something wrong with this."

"Then you quickly get rid of the poison for her!"

Ling Gang shook his head: "Master, it is extremely difficult to get rid of the poison. We need to slowly study and prepare the antidote. I cannot guarantee whether it will be successful. In addition, the current situation of the mistress is not optimistic. I am afraid..."

"What did you say?" Song Jiyang suddenly grabbed his collar, looked at him fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "If you can't save her, you can bury her with her!"

"My subordinate understands!"

Song Jiyang let go of him and sat back on the bed dejectedly.

He held Huo Qingluan's hand and whispered: "Luan'er, you won't die. Don't worry, I will definitely find someone to help you."

Huo Qingluan felt the warmth in his palms and tried his best to squeeze out a smile: "Yes, I know." At this time, Situ Jing took a step forward and said calmly: "In that case, I will leave first."

"it is good."

After Situ Jing left, Song Jiyang held Huo Qingluan's hand close to him and said softly: "Luan'er, don't be afraid."

"Well, I'm not afraid."

"Luan'er..."

"what's wrong?"

"Let's get married!"

"..."

Seeing that Huo Qingluan did not agree, Song Jiyang asked again: "Luan'er, are you willing to marry me?"

This time, Huo Qingluan finally reflected: "Let's talk about this topic when I get better."

"Ok, I will wait for you!"

……

The next day, in the inner courtyard of the palace, Qingliang Hall.

The emperor had already woken up and was reviewing the memorial at the desk.

In his hand, he also held a piece of paper, which said -

Father, I would like to ask you to grant me a marriage.

The handwriting is sloppy and a bit urgent.The emperor smiled, threw it aside, and continued to correct the memorial.

At this time, a black shadow flashed past.He didn't look at it and snorted coldly: "What? You can't hold it back so quickly?"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"You really are getting better and better as you live!" After saying that, he closed the memorial, crumpled it into a ball and threw it on the table.

"Your Majesty's forgiveness!"

The emperor snorted coldly, fluffed his sleeves and walked out.

As soon as the emperor walked out of the palace, a eunuch came up to him: "Your Majesty, the seventh prince and the prince are fighting outside the palace."

"How is it appropriate to fight? Let them come into the palace quickly!"

"Yes."

Song Tao and the prince knelt on the ground, heads lowered.

The emperor angrily shouted: "Stand up for me! What's the point of kneeling here and there?"

The prince lowered his head and stood up silently, but still stood there without saying a word.

Song Tao said: "Father, please calm down. This matter is all my fault. I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, so I could only ask the prince to go out with me to relax. This
That's why he pissed off the prince. "

"Relaxing? I think it's true that you are competing for the position of crown prince."

After hearing this, Song Tao knelt down with a plop, kowtowed and admitted his mistake.

Seeing this, the emperor softened his tone: "Okay, let's get over it! I know that for so many years, you two brothers have refused to obey the other. However, the country is in crisis now, and I don't want to see you rebelling."

Song Tao and the prince both bowed their heads in response.

"I'm tired, you all go down!"

"My son retire."

After Song Tao and the prince left, the emperor sat down, leaned back tiredly on his chair and closed his eyes to rest.
