Chapter 124
"Xiao Qiao!" Xian Hui was startled, grabbed the reins tightly, and reprimanded the horse while it was jolting: "Don't mess around! If you do this again, I'll have someone send you back." Because he had ridden a horse before, Gao Chen also taught him that, knowing that he couldn't hold on to the reins at this moment, he only dared to use a little force to slow down the horse, and he didn't come to a slow stop until he entered the dense forest.

Immediately turned over and dismounted, "You are so naughty."

"Aunt." Zhou Qiao was anxious, "Why did you get down? I don't know how to ride."

"We'll just wait here, and I'll take you to catch the fox when the emperor comes back, do you hear me?" Although Xianhui is not a few years older than Zhou Qiao, but she has the elders and is the queen, so her words still carry weight, "If you If you don’t listen, we’ll go back now and ask your mother to pick you up.”

Zhou Qiao froze immediately.

"Okay..." Her voice was not very happy, "Okay, okay, wait for uncle to come back." She didn't know how to ride a horse, so she didn't dare to rush out by herself, so she had to follow, then found a stone and sat down, and said in a boring way: "wait."

Xianhui thought to herself, if she had a child in the future, she couldn't be so self-willed.

"Hey." Zhou Qiao sat down dishonestly, chirping: "Look, look! Something ran over there." After a while, he shouted again, "I think I saw a sika deer."

Xianhui just said whatever she wanted, and ignored it.

I had nothing to do, raised my hand to block the sunlight falling from the gaps in the leaves, looked at the narrow mottled blue sky, and the occasional black dots of flying birds, passing the time leisurely.

Suddenly, there was a burst of shouting and noisy movement in front.

"What's wrong?" Xianhui asked.

A guard ran over quickly, "I want to report to the empress, there was a eunuch sneaking around in the woods just now, and he couldn't tell where he came from, so he has been arrested."

While talking, two guards escorted an eunuch over, they didn't dare to approach, and stood still not far away.

Xianhui glanced at it, and was stunned in shock!

Lu Jian?How could it be him?
The leading guard pointed out: "This is the man! But don't worry, Madam, this man has no weapon on him, and he doesn't know martial arts, so we will detain him immediately." He also explained: "The surrounding area has been checked, and there is no one else. .”

Xian Hui's heart was beating wildly, not knowing how they were going to take Lu Jian down and how to torture him, she instinctively blurted out, "Wait a minute." Then she was stunned by a slip of the tongue and couldn't answer.

"Your Majesty, do you have any orders?"

"Oh." Xian Hui said with a calm smile, "Today is a day for everyone to come out and be happy. Don't shout and kill. Maybe it's a little eunuch who got lost somewhere and was too scared to speak. You put He will take it down and ask again, if there is anything wrong, wait for the emperor to come back and deal with it."

I hope Gao Chen still has a semblance of reason, and don't misunderstand himself indiscriminately.Wait, could it be said that this is another "coincidence" made by him?No, there are so many people here - even if he wanted to kill Lu Jian, it wouldn't be so unreasonable.

If Lu Jian quarrels, it will only make him lose face.

Who would that be?Xianhui couldn't figure it out.

The guards were even more confused, the first part was understandable, good days can't spoil the interest of the master, but what is the meaning of the latter part?It's just a eunuch who got into trouble, why should the emperor ask?But the master's order, you have to listen to it, and you will die sooner than you ask, so after thinking about it, I replied: "Yes, I will follow your mother's order."

Lu Jian remained pale and remained silent.

"Go!" The guard stepped forward to grab him and greeted his companions, "Hurry up, take this short-sighted person away."

Xianhui glanced lightly, then looked away.

Zhou Qiao sat on the stone next to him and pouted, watched the excitement for a while, then continued to wait for Gao Chen to come back out of boredom.Suddenly something flickered in front of my eyes, and I hurried to look for it, wanting to see it clearly, "What is it?" When I saw it clearly, I couldn't help screaming in fright, and jumped up, "Snake!"

It was too late to say, but soon, a piebald long snake jumped out with a "whoosh"!
"Snake! Ah..." Xianhui retreated again and again, but still couldn't avoid being bitten, and soon felt the soles of his feet softened, and his body also softened. I don't know if it was the snake's venom, or she was frightened, and she sat down on the ground.

"Quick! Save the empress!" The surrounding palace people exclaimed, but most of them were afraid of snakes and dared not go forward.

On the contrary, Lu Jian, who had walked for a while, rushed over when he saw this, pulled out a branch, and beat the piebald snake recklessly!Seeing that there were many people, the snake was in a stalemate for a moment, and then sank into the grass with a "swish".

"Your Majesty!" Lu Jian said the first sentence in horror, squatting down, trying to suck out the snake venom for her - this was the only way he could think of, even if he didn't care about doing it, what would happen to him? Tragic consequences.

However, as soon as he squatted down, before he could make a move, he heard the sound of fast footsteps coming from behind. The next moment, he was thrown aside forcefully, "Get out!"

After Lu Jian rolled a few times and settled down, he saw clearly that the person who came was none other than Gao Chen.

"Go away!" Gao Chen shouted, causing the guards to disperse, and then took off Xianhui's shoes and socks, revealing the blackened calf wound.He moved swiftly, quickly tore off his robe and tied it above his calves to prevent the snake's venom from flowing upwards, then squeezed hard a few times, and said in a low voice, "Hold the pain!"

Xian Hui not only turned pale, but even her lips were white, and asked, "...is that you?"

Gao Chen didn't bother to explain to her, he didn't have time, he suddenly lowered his head, and sucked on her lap!Then mouthful after mouthful, he spit out the blackened poisonous blood, one mouthful, one mouthful, and another mouthful... without any hesitation or pause.

The surrounding guards were all stunned.

After a while, the commander of the bodyguards came to his senses, and said angrily, "Send the doctor quickly!!" Because the queen must have taken off her shoes and socks, she didn't dare to go there, and only dared to shout from behind: "Your Majesty, no, no! It's dangerous, let the imperial physicians come and treat her."

He thought to himself, if something happened to the emperor, the empress would be really troublesome.

On the other side, Zhou Qiao was even more frightened and at a loss.

God!My aunt was bitten by a snake, and my uncle sucked snake venom for her. If there is something wrong between the two of them, what will I do?Today, I have to pester my aunt, first riding a horse, and then hanging around waiting to hunt.

"Xianhui, Xianhui!" Gao Chen shouted loudly: "Can you still hear me?!"

Gao Chen...Xian Hui opened his mouth, wanting to call him, and ask him, why would he be so stupid as to suck snake venom for himself?Then passed out limply.

Zhou Qiao stepped forward timidly and cried, "I'm sorry..."

Gao Chen's mouth was a little numb, but he didn't care about her, he just ordered, "Find a horse and escort Miss Zhou back." Then he hugged Xian Hui himself, suppressed the nausea in his heart, and led her to gallop on the horse out of the woods.

After returning to the palace, the Empress Dowager Zhou and others rushed over after hearing the news.

One imperial doctor was checking Gao Chen's pulse, the other was treating Xian Hui, and there were a few back-ups. The dormitory was in a hurry.

Princess Wuyang had heard the whole story long ago, and when she saw Zhou Qiao, she beat her up, "It's against you! If you say you can ride a horse, you can ride a horse, and why are you talking about hunting? If it wasn't for you..." She wanted to reprimand severely In other words, I was afraid that my daughter would really bear the blame, so I could only suppress my anger, and apologized to Gao Chen: "It's all because Xiao Qiao is ignorant, I..."

The Empress Dowager Zhou waved her hand to her daughter, "Don't talk about it yet." She hurriedly asked, "Doctor, is the emperor okay?

The imperial physician cautiously replied: "Because the snake venom has entered the mouth, it is somewhat poisoned, but most of the venom has been vomited by the emperor, and only a small amount remains, so the symptoms of poisoning are not deep. There may be symptoms such as nausea and wanting to vomit, and you need to take some poison loose Decoction, and then recuperate for a few days."

Only then did the Queen Mother feel relieved a little.

Gao Chen lay on the floating cloud couch, his voice floating, "Mother, I'm fine."

"Okay, okay." The Empress Dowager Zhou sat down anxiously beside her, "Don't talk, just rest." I couldn't help complaining about the little daughter-in-law in my heart—it's good for a young couple to love each other, but it's good to let the son be so confused Three ways, for her, even disregarding his life, it's a disaster rather than a blessing.

But inside, the youngest daughter-in-law is still in a coma from the snake poison, and there is no place to complain.

"How is the queen?" Gao Chen asked again.

The Empress Dowager Zhou got up anxiously, "You rest, I will go in and take a look for you." She complained in her heart, that Shao Xianhui really fell into the ashes, and she couldn't shoot or beat her, even if she blew a mouthful, she was afraid that she would break .

In the dormitory, the three imperial physicians surrounding Xian Hui's bed looked worried.

"What? The queen is not good?" Queen Mother Zhou asked in a low voice.

Fearing that his son would be anxious when he heard it, and regardless of himself, he rushed in to check for himself.

The imperial doctors looked at each other without answering.

Empress Dowager Zhou was in a hurry, "Why did you become a saw-mouthed gourd? You didn't say anything."

An imperial doctor stomped his feet, "The empress dowager forgives the sin, this matter has to be decided by the emperor." Go out quickly.

The Empress Dowager Zhou didn't know why, and was worried, so she had to follow out.

"The Queen's condition is not good?!" Gao Chen got up immediately, and said angrily: "I have dealt with her as soon as possible, and on the way back, I even checked her pulse, which is not a dying pulse. Funeral!"

"No, no no!" The queen mother knelt down in fright and explained: "The queen has been poisoned, just as the emperor said, although the poison is deeper than the emperor, it is not incurable."

Gao Chen shouted: "Then who are you showing your mournful face!"

"Your Majesty." The imperial doctor turned his head again, "The Empress Dowager." His face was filled with embarrassment: "Just now, several ministers took turns to check the pulse, and they all diagnosed that the Empress Dowager was not only poisoned, but also... may be happy. It's just that the month is not enough, the pulse condition It’s not obvious, so I dare not make a judgment on my own.”

"You're happy?" Gao Chen thought about it carefully, but it matched the days of last month.The sudden great joy rushed towards him like a tidal wave, he was startled, and then happily said: "If Xianhui is happy, it is a good thing."

The Empress Dowager Zhou listened to it and also recited Buddha's name, "Amitabha, I've been looking forward to this for a long time, you can be considered as having a child."

The imperial doctor waited for the two masters to be happy for a while, and then hesitated: "But..." He hesitated, "Actually, it is not suitable for the empress to be pregnant at the moment, and there is snake venom in her body."

Gao Chen's expression changed immediately, "You mean, the fetus can't be kept?"

"Your Majesty." The imperial physician replied: "First of all, Weichen and others dare not conclude that the empress is pregnant. After all, the month is less than one month, and they have to wait for ten days before making a conclusion. Secondly, it doesn't matter if the empress is not pregnant. If she is pregnant, I am afraid that the residual poison in the body will not be good for the child. Not to mention whether it will be safe or not, even if it is, it is hard to say...whether the child born in the future will be disabled, or weak and sick. "

It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured down the head in winter, cooling Gao Chen to the core.

The Empress Dowager Zhou was also stunned, "Why...it's like this."

The imperial doctor cautiously suggested: "So, what I mean, first let the empress recuperate the residual poison in her body, and don't tell her about the unpleasant things for now. If the fetus can be kept, we will talk about it later, if it can't be kept..." Paused Paused, "It won't make the Empress happy for nothing."

The Empress Dowager Zhou said bitterly: "How can I hide this?"

The imperial physician explained, "The queen's body has been poisoned by snakes, and she is a little weak. It is not suitable to experience too much emotional ups and downs. In case of miscarriage in the future, it goes without saying, because the month is not enough, there will be no obvious afterbirth. If you get snake poison and your menstruation is irregular, that's it. Or don't tell her about it for the rest of your life, or wait for her to recover and then talk about it slowly."

"Okay!" Gao Chen interrupted angrily, "Don't tell the empress about the embarrassment, you should detoxify her! If she really has an embarrassment, try to keep it..." In case the child is raised, it will be like the doctor said. Disabled or infirm?Then this child, it is sad to raise it, it is better not to raise it.

Thinking of this, I am even more furious about what happened today!

who is it?Who is so vicious?If found out, this person must be crushed to ashes!
When Xianhui woke up, it was already midnight, and she opened her eyes and saw a scene of orange-red flickering candlelight.

"Are you awake?" Gao Chen sat on the edge of the bed, as if he had been waiting for a long time, he lowered his head and smiled at her, "The imperial doctor said that you will wake up around this time, which is quite accurate."

Xian Hui was still a little confused, reacted slowly, and blinked lightly.

Gao Chen smiled, "You are so obedient, it's cute." He stroked her forehead and comforted her, "Don't worry, that snake is not a poisonous snake, it's just an ordinary green-skinned snake. It just nested for a winter, and the venom You saved a little too much, so you were bitten and passed out. Afterwards, drink a few days of heat-clearing and detoxifying decoctions, take care of it, and you will recover soon."

Xianhui looked at him, her eyes were moist, and there were small teardrops on her eyelashes.

"Why are you still crying?" Gao Chen laughed.

Xian Hui felt panicked.

Just before he sucked the snake venom for himself, he still had a doubt, did he call Lu Jian over again?And asked him personally.

But later, he actually...regardless of the danger, he sucked the snake venom for himself.

Thinking about it, I was too ignorant and paranoid.In this world, who would deliberately find a rival in love to meet his wife before making it public?What are you drawing?He was the emperor, so it was easy to pinch himself and Lu Jian to death, but it was impossible.

If he didn't treat himself sincerely, how could he have sucked the snake venom for himself?Poison cannot be faked.

It seems that everything he said before is true.

"Don't think about it." Gao Chen looked at her rolling eyeballs, and said, "Take care of her."

Xian Hui nodded lightly, and quietly took his hand, "Today, you are too dangerous..." She wanted to say something grateful, but she felt that a word of gratitude could not be expressed, so she got stuck instead.

"Who made you my queen?" Gao Chen has really changed a lot recently, for example, when facing her, he always has a smile in his eyes and face, and he joked, "I don't want to be a widow. "

In a word, it really drew Xian Hui's tears.

From ancient times to the present, how can an emperor be a widow?For the emperor, even for men with a little power, there is never a shortage of women, so he doesn't have to worry about the so-called widowhood at all!So, it's just...

"You're so stupid." Xian Hui held his hand tightly, tears streaming down his face, "I... I'm afraid." Big tears fell down, "I'm afraid this is just a flash in the pan, you will... Not so nice to me. Then...then how sad I should be."

"From now on, I will treat you as well as today." Gao Chen said tender words of love, but it was more like a promise, he lowered his head to kiss her face, and dried those salty tears, "Don't cry, you..." Thinking that there is still one in her stomach, it's hard to tell, so I can only continue to joke, "If you continue to cry like this, when your parents come to the palace to see, they will think that I hit you."

"Bah!" Xianhui laughed through tears, "People in my family are so unreasonable."

"It's hard to say." Gao Chen deliberately said: "There is an unreasonable daughter, and the parents probably also..."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Xianhui pinched his waist with a smile, her eyebrows and eyes were curved, and her eyes were like a lake of stars in the night, shining with joy and joy, which made people's heart skip a beat.

For example, Gao Chen was a little stunned at the moment.

The girl who used to be as smart as a bead, the girl who made people feel happy when she smiled, and the girl whose happiness could easily infect others——like a lost treasure, she has returned.

"By the way." Xianhui smiled for a while and asked, "Where's Lu Jian? Did you send him away?"

The corners of Gao Chen's mouth curled up slightly.

Her eyes were as clear as water, and she didn't have any doubts or distrust of herself. She trusted herself wholeheartedly and believed that she would handle Lu Jian's affairs well.From this point of view, she really let go of her knot.

No, perhaps one last point to add.

"Let you meet two people." Gao Chen said.

Xianhui was puzzled, "Who?"

Gao Chen remained silent, then asked someone to install a gauze screen as a partition, and then two people were ushered in.As if he had already been ordered, he stood quietly behind the silk gauze and let others look at him.

The gauze screen is specially made to avoid people, but there are some screens that can be easily viewed from the front.
