The slave family is not a disaster

Chapter 185 Let Him Go

"Nephew, take a good rest. The Ai family has their own decision on this matter." The Empress Dowager He replied ambiguously, but He Guang also knew that even if he wanted to escort him now, it was impossible to use him. The red spots on the face, if they go out openly, it will cause riots in Bianjing City. The people are afraid of the plague. If you know that there is a source of infection for the plague, then the people are not crazy?
After walking out of the He Mansion, the Empress Dowager He had a very bad expression: "Empress Dowager, are you alright?"

"Ai's family is fine, Nanny Chang, go and call all those old things from the Imperial Hospital to He's Mansion, remember to come in secret, don't disturb others, after taking He Guang's pulse, come to Tianxuan Palace to meet Ai's family." The queen mother always felt that there was something strange about this matter, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Yes, I'll do it right now, old slave." After receiving the order, Nanny Chang didn't dare to delay, and immediately went to the Imperial Hospital. Empress Dowager He returned to the palace with a solemn expression.

Tianxuan Palace

The five most authoritative ministers of the Taiyuan Hospital came together one after another: "My ministers see the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager is thousands of years old."

Empress Dowager He waved her hands impatiently: "Get up."

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Several imperial physicians got up afterward.

"Doctor Zheng, as the head of the imperial hospital, Aijia asked you, what kind of disease did He Guang suffer from?" Queen Mother He asked anxiously.

The doctor Zheng was born in the famous Zheng family, and was the uncle of Zheng Yanru, the woman from Xigong Jinpao, who has been in the imperial hospital for more than 20 years now, and is highly valued by the royal family.

Secondly, some of Zheng Yanru's uncles were on duty at the Imperial Hospital. It can be said that the Zheng family has been doctors for generations.

"Go back to the empress dowager, this... This humble minister is not sure." Although Zheng Taiyi knew that the empress dowager would get angry, he had no choice.

Sure enough, Empress Dowager He was furious, and slapped the table: "Presumptuous, Aijia asks you, just tell me what you want, you are not sure what it means, if you people who are too hospital can't figure it out, then Aijia What do you need? Do you want to eat rice?"

"Empress Dowager, Master He's illness is really rare, I don't know if I should say something or not?" Imperial Physician Zheng asked cautiously.

"Say it." The Queen Mother He was still angry, and said angrily.

"Master He's condition is very similar to Princess Rui'an's condition. The pulse condition is a bit strange, and there are red spots all over the body. This is really undiagnosed for the time being, but the Queen Mother should have heard about it. This disease is very similar to the plague." Doctor Zheng took the risk to say what should be said in one go.

"Plague? Is it really a plague?" Empress Dowager He didn't dare to think about it because she had always suspected that this matter was caused by Jue Xigong. But if it was really a plague, then she really killed He Guang this time. what.

"Yes, the ministers studied it carefully, and found that the illness was very similar to the plague, and...the minister heard that Mr. He was fine before, but only after meeting Princess Rui'an, he guessed that he might be infected. "Another imperial doctor also reported back as he wished.

"Infection? Impossible? Then Xi Gongjue lives in the palace, so why is nothing wrong?" The queen mother did not let go of every loophole and detail.

Imperial Physician Zheng bowed his head and replied: "This depends on the constitution of the person. People with good constitutions are generally not infected, but those with weak constitutions may not escape bad luck. Maybe Mr. He just happened to be unwell these few days, so... "Emperor Zheng didn't say anything later, but Empress Dowager He knew what he was going to say.

So my heart went cold: "Is there still help?"

"Back to the empress dowager, if it is really a plague, then you should know better than this minister that there is no cure, and we can only let it fend for itself, but it is not completely sure that it is a plague, after all, Princess Rui'an's condition has not deteriorated recently. At present, we can only wait and see the changes, as for whether life is in danger, we have to observe." Zheng Taiyi said that the water is tight.

But Empress Dowager He was already so embarrassed that she was about to die: "Okay, Aijia knows, you go down, don't spread this matter, Aijia doesn't want the people to know that there is a source of plague in Bianjing, and you should always observe He Report Guang's illness to the Ai family at any time, and you all know that He Guang is the nephew of the Ai family, and the Ai family does not want him to make any mistakes, understand?"

Empress Dowager He always has a strong aura when she gets angry, giving people an invisible sense of oppression...

"Yes, I obey." The five ministers got up and left cautiously.

Empress Dowager He sighed, it is time for her to re-examine this matter now, if it was designed by Jue Xigong to rescue Dugu Jialuo, it feels a bit unreasonable, after all, whoever has the heart to use his wife's plague as bait, even if Jue Xigong doesn't love him His princess, he can't do this kind of thing, because the power of the plague is very serious. If he doesn't do it well, he himself, or the whole palace may fall into the plague.

"Could it be that Aijia really overthinks it?" Empress Dowager He began to doubt her previous speculation.

At this time, the little eunuch at the door shouted: "The emperor is here."

Empress Dowager He raised her head and saw a bright yellow figure walking in at the door of the inner hall. She was relieved. Fortunately, it was He Guang who had the accident, not her own son, otherwise, she would really have no way to live.

"The son and the queen pay their respects to the queen." The emperor said gently.

"Your majesty, come here, Ai's family just happened to be looking for you." The queen mother waved her hand feebly and ordered.

"Yes." The emperor walked to Queen Mother He with a smile on his face, and slowly sat down next to her.

"Your Majesty, the Ai family went to He's residence today. He Guang is ill, and it's very strange." The Queen Mother He's voice is a little hoarse, and it can be seen that she still cares about her He family's lineage.

"Ah? He Guang is ill? What's going on?" In fact, the emperor had already investigated everything that happened clearly, but in front of his mother, he didn't want to be too shrewd. Queen Mother's heart.

"Well, isn't he the escort minister appointed by Aijia this time? He went to the Rui'an Palace yesterday to find out the situation, but he seemed to be infected by Princess Rui'an, so he also got that strange disease today. The imperial doctors just left. Saying that He Guang's condition is very similar to Ye Anran's, Ai Jia felt a little guilty, if it hadn't been for Ai Jia's insistence on using He Guang, maybe he wouldn't be like this." A strong woman like Queen Mother He rarely admits her mistakes, maybe face to face To her son, she can show her true feelings.

"Mother, these are not your fault. You did it for my own good. You don't trust that lonely Jia Luo, nor do you trust the Jue. I know it all, but I didn't want you to use He Guang before, because I was afraid that something like this would happen. , Now it’s really out, and I feel bad.” What the emperor said comforted the queen mother a lot.

"Your Majesty, it's good that you know Aijia's thoughts. Tomorrow is the day when Princess Rui'an will leave. Now that something happened to He Guang, he can't go. Do you have a reliable candidate? How about sending your Jingwei?" It seems Up to now, the queen mother still does not want to use Dugu Jialuo.

"Queen, Jingwei is always a young man. Princess Rui'an is not an insignificant person. We can't neglect his concubine just because of the rank of Jue. It will be ridiculed by the people of the world." The emperor did not directly refute. , but told the queen mother about the powerful relationship.

"That's right, it's because the Ai family didn't think too much about it. Today, when the Ai family saw He Guang like that, he felt confused. Although he is not the nephew of the Ai family, he is still a member of our He family. I am afraid that the Ai family will not have the face to meet the ancestors of the He family, and now there is no suitable candidate, what should I do? How about choosing a minister to accompany the emperor tomorrow morning." The Queen Mother's voice was a little tired.

The emperor shook his head: "Queen Mother, those old ministers are very cunning, especially after the incident of He Guang, they dare not go, wishing to resign, I can't threaten them, in that case, What should I do if there is a turmoil in the government and the opposition? You should know that although those old ministers usually seem to be useless, once they make a fuss, it is enough for me to drink a pot." The emperor explained slowly.

"Then what should I do? The Ai family can't let that kid Nishigongjue see a joke, right? At the beginning, the Ai family said in front of all civil and military officials in the court that they would choose someone for him. Now that the date is approaching, the Ai family can't hand over anyone. Come on, you must lose all face." Although the Empress Dowager He is a woman, she loves face extremely.

My heart is naturally uneasy...

Seeing what the queen mother was thinking, the emperor smiled slightly: "Queen mother, how about we use Dugu Jialuo?"

After listening, Empress Dowager He looked at her son in surprise, a little surprised...

"Your Majesty, are you also confused when Aijia is confused? If Dugu Jialuo is used, the consequences will be disastrous. Once he is out of our sight, it will be bad if he escapes." Empress Dowager He was always worried about letting the tiger go back to the mountain.

"Mother, compared with Xi Gongjue, I think Dugu Jialuo is not so scary." The emperor smiled faintly, as if what he said was just an ordinary sentence.

"What does the emperor mean...?" The queen mother seemed to be a little enlightened.

"Empress mother's worry, sons and ministers all know that it's just internal and external troubles, but if Liuyun Kingdom really attacks, at this time Xi Gongjue is taking advantage of the opportunity to rebel, do you think it is still possible for him to seize the throne? When the country is in trouble, If he rebelled, he would only be accused of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. The people are not fools, so it can be seen naturally. Therefore, even if Dugu Jialuo returns to Liuyun Kingdom, once a war is launched, then Xi Gongjue is a weapon that can affect Dugu. Galo's pawn, on the contrary, if there is no Dugu Jialuo, then Xi Gongjue will deal with me wholeheartedly, then my crisis will be even greater, why does the queen mother not understand this point?" The emperor usually rarely talks about state affairs with the queen mother, maybe this time What happened was unusual, so the emperor also began to talk about the outline.

After hearing this, Empress Dowager He showed a little appreciation in her eyes: "Your Majesty, the Ai family underestimated you before. They always thought that you were still a well-behaved prince under the wings of the Ai family, but they ignored that you are already a wise king."

"Mother, I am no longer a child. If I don't talk about many things, it doesn't mean I don't understand. I just like to wait and see what happens. You are right in saying that what I should worry about most is the Dragon Mark pardon. , so Xigongjue is the most terrifying opponent, as for Dugu Jialuo, let Xigongjue deal with it, hasn't he, the prince who has been fighting in the south and north for many years, has been a hero?" The emperor raised his mouth.

"In this way, the Ai family is confused. You are right. Compared with Xi Gongjue, Dugu Jialuo is not surprising. Then the emperor will issue an imperial decree. The Ai family will not hold on to this truth. That Dugu Jialuo went to escort him, and he escaped, which shows that he is superior, if he accidentally contracted the plague, it can only show that his life is short." After listening to the emperor's persuasion, Empress Dowager He suddenly became enlightened.

Gossiping with the queen mother for a while, the emperor walked out of Tianxuan Palace, deeply relieved, and finally he persuaded the queen mother, but is the girl still suffering from illness at this time?
On the way, I don't know when the blast came out: "Master, did the empress dowager agree?"

"Well, the queen mother is a soft-hearted person, and she can't stand a few words from me." The emperor smiled faintly.

"Then master, who is it for you to let Dugu Jialuo go this time? Is it because of the agreement with King Rui'an? Or is it because of someone who is suffering from a strange disease?" Gaifeng looked all the way, and he knew the master's thoughts best. It is clear that the emperor's feelings for Princess Rui'an are not so pure.

"Haifeng, you talk too much." The emperor didn't look angry, but just said lightly.

"Master...?" Gaifeng wanted to persuade the emperor to put a knife on his head and stop being infatuated with Princess Rui'an, but when he saw a white figure in front of him, he immediately shut up and walked away.

"Yue'er, why are you here?" Seeing the woman in front, the emperor's eyes warmed up.

"Brother Huang, today... is Yue'er's birthday, I would like to invite you to my Xiuyue Palace, okay?" Princess Yue was dressed in white, her cheeks were clear and pink, and she even spoke a little shyly.
