Work overtime

Han Ziqian has already rehearsed the answers to almost all the questions he can think of.

The most important thing when dealing with things is to strive for perfection, and perfection means trying your best to make everyone involved have face, although it is not an easy task.

The essence of deception lies in the truth and lies, the lies are true and the lies are true, they are all true and they are all false.

Han Ziqian narrated, "The Queen Mother was tortured by illness and was in unbearable pain. In order to retain her final dignity, the Queen Mother drank pain-relieving medicine and then committed suicide with two glasses of poisonous wine. So she was very calm and peaceful when she left. .”

Li Beichen lowered his eyes, expressionless, "Does the imperial doctor know about this?"

"Informed." Han Ziqian said respectfully, "When the imperial physician ordered General Lu to go to my home, he showed me the imperial physician's own diagnosis. It said that the queen mother was critically ill. The queen mother personally ordered the young eunuch to prepare two glasses of poisonous wine. .”

Li Beichen remembered that before the urgent report that the Queen Mother had passed away, a eunuch did come to report that the Queen Mother was suddenly critically ill and asked him to come back quickly.But at that time, he was still discussing with the ministers to quell the rebellion of 2 troops gathered by King Pingyao near Langfang, Hebei Province, so it was delayed for a while.

As for the poisonous wine, the two young eunuchs serving the Queen Mother were right outside the door. They would know it as soon as they asked, so Mr. Han would not dare to lie.

"Mother, she" Li Beichen's voice was choked with sobs, but he quickly suppressed it with restraint, "Since you took the initiative to drink poisonous wine, why didn't you wait for me. Why didn't you persuade her? Cold poison is not an incurable disease. There will definitely be a way. It just takes some time.”

"I am guilty. I also advised the Queen Mother in the same way. But the Queen Mother said that she knew about the cold poison. The cold poison is extremely overbearing. Once poisoned, there is no cure and there is only death. Not only will it cause pain like corpse maggots eating bones, but it will also cause pain. She was mentally deranged. The Queen Mother said that she wanted to die last night when she was in pain, but she couldn't ask for death from the imperial doctor. The imperial doctor would only try his best to keep her alive. This is the responsibility of the imperial doctor. If your Majesty comes, she will not be allowed to Seeking death.”

Li Beichen sighed, understanding what the Queen Mother was talking about.

No one around the Queen Mother would have the guts to serve her poisoned wine when she begged for death.Who can not be afraid of the thunderous wrath of the Emperor?

Unless the Queen Mother is sober and orders others to serve poisonous wine, no one will dare to disobey the Queen Mother's will.

Li Beichen stopped turning the ring on his hand and looked at Han Ziqian, "So you gave the Queen Mother painkillers and accompanied the Queen Mother on her last journey?"

Han Ziqian was silent for a moment and said: "Yes. I gave the Queen Mother the Qingxin Pill that the master refined before his death. This is it." Han Ziqian took out a mini box, opened it and there were two white pills left in it, and handed it to the emperor for inspection. .

Li Beichen took the box and sniffed it gently. There was a pleasant fragrance of green grass.

Han Ziqian said calmly, "Master has refined three pills in total. The Qingxin Pill can help people regain their consciousness, calm physical pain, and make their hearts peaceful."

Li Beichen closed the box and put it at hand.

Judging from Han Ziqian's description and the Queen Mother's facial expression, this Qingxin Pill does have this effect.Thinking of the Queen Mother's non-stop wailing and screaming last night, Li Beichen felt a little relieved.

If the pain persists day and night, suffering all the time, and every night is as heartbreaking as last night, perhaps committing suicide is a great relief for the mother.

He took a deep breath, and then summoned up the courage to ask, "What is the final explanation from the Queen Mother?"

Han Ziqian's eyebrows were sad and his eyes were deep, "The Queen Mother told me, first of all, I hope that Your Majesty can take care of your health and don't work too hard. Your health is important and the days ahead will be long."

As soon as he finished speaking, the softest part of Li Beichen's heart was hit, and his eyes became wet.

He tried hard to control the deep sadness deep in his heart, but he couldn't control it at this time.

He has always thought that he has strong self-control, which is enough to use his strong will to remain calm, calm, and indifferent to emotions and anger.It was a relief to have just accepted my mother's departure.

But when I heard these words from my mother, I realized that I might have overestimated my self-control.

He couldn't help but think of his mother's warning almost every time he met the Queen Mother, but now no one would respond when he called her Queen Mother again.

He didn't want to lose his composure, but at this moment he could no longer control the tears that burst out of him.Just thinking about losing my mother from now on, never being able to see or hear her again, makes all sense collapse.Li Beichen held the armrest of the chair tightly and asked with a trembling voice, "What else?"

Han Ziqian hesitated for a moment, lowered his eyes and said, "Secondly, the Queen Mother heard that Xu Fuhai was gone, and ordered her ministers to serve the Emperor from the back of the palace and protect the Emperor."

Since the result has been like this, it is better to return to dust, dust to dust, and let everyone go.

Li Beichen was very surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect his mother to consider him so much and was deeply moved.

But he neither wanted to live up to the Queen Mother's dying instructions, nor did he want to personally order Han Ziqian to commit suicide.

Staring at Han Ziqian, hoping that he would continue speaking.

Han Ziqian watched Li Beichen grow up and knew his character very well, so he took the initiative and said, "I have respected the Queen Mother's decree and left the palace. Here are my parts, which can be submitted to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for verification and archiving."

The tone was calm, as if he was talking about an extremely ordinary thing.

Li Beichen's eyes fell on a bulging mass of parts on the table.I felt a little intolerable.

"Young master?"

Li Beichen stared at his teacher in disbelief and said in a deep voice, "Young Master, you don't have to be like this. There are many guards with high martial arts skills in the Twelve Guards. The Young Master is my humerus minister, and he is not married yet, so there is really no need. in this way."

Han Ziqian shook his head, "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about me. It's my honor to be able to protect Your Majesty and fulfill the Queen Mother's instructions."

Both parties knew that each other only had kind words to say.

Li Beichen was very moved and thought it was the Queen Mother who was worried about her own safety, but Han Shaofu was a strong martial artist and superb archer, so he had no doubts about him.

After all, Han Ziqian was the only one present.He does not have to fulfill this promise.Unless the Queen Mother requested Han Shaofu on the spot, and Han Shaofu chose to do it on the spot in order to fulfill the Queen Mother's last wish.

But Han Ziqian was previously a high-ranking court minister and his teacher, and now he has become a chamberlain. A man as ice-like as snow is accompanying him in eunuch uniforms, which is doubly strange.

So for a while, Li Beichen couldn't decide how to arrange Han Ziqian.

"The Queen Mother is very caring for me, but Young Master Han is different from others. He is an official of the imperial court and can be my bodyguard, but the internal eunuch cannot. Young Master Han has already left the palace, so she has realized what she wants. I think the Queen Mother will not care about it. Later I will send an order to the imperial doctor to help you take him back."

Han Ziqian shook his head and said, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. A gentleman's promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold. I have already promised the Queen Mother, and there is no reason to break my promise. What's more, I have no intention of carrying on the family line, let alone love in the world. It doesn't matter whether I want that thing or not."

Li Beichen thought that his teacher had always been cool and aloof, with no interest in love or power.The world is crazy and crazy, but the teacher doesn't care at all. He is only obsessed with riding, shooting, calligraphy and painting.For a moment I didn't know what to answer.

I had no choice but to let out a long sigh and said, "Young Master Han's kindness makes me admire and appreciate you. In this case, you will follow the Queen Mother's last wish and stay with me. There is no need to announce the matter to the public, only you and I know about it. You There is no need to call yourself a slave, you and I still treat each other as monarchs and ministers, and we treat others as ministers."

Then he gestured to the things on the table with his eyes, "As for this, Young Master will keep it himself."

After thinking about it, I still felt very sorry for Han Ziqian, "Last time I heard that you have a younger sister who has not yet left the palace. She will serve during the filial piety period in one month. I will call her into the palace and make her a noblewoman for the first time."

Han Ziqian was dumbfounded.

Hey hey hey, why are you repaying kindness with hatred?My sister doesn’t want to enter the palace!
