The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 168: Taking advantage of me

As night fell and the Meridian Gate was about to close, Zhuge Yuanba arrived on time.

Zhuge Yuanba returned to his post, and there were even rumors that he might go a step further and serve as the commander of the Forbidden Army. Therefore, the Forbidden Army guarding the Meridian Gate was respectful and polite, and hurriedly entered the palace to report.

The news reached Emperor Xia, who was reading a book, and when he heard that Zhuge Yuanba asked for an audience, he immediately frowned and asked, "Why did this guy enter the palace late at night?"

"Commander Zhuge didn't say anything, he just said that it's a big matter, it's extremely urgent, please beg His Majesty to summon him! If he doesn't see him, he will leave!" Hai Dafu said.

"Yo, you threatened me!"

Being able to make him do this, Emperor Xia immediately thought of Xiao Rui. Now that Zhuge's family is tied to King Xian, there are only a handful of people in the entire capital who can invite him into the palace, and Xiao Rui is definitely one of them.

However, thinking of the recent military newspaper sent by Champion Hou, the lines were full of anger towards his younger brother, and he even married his daughter off without a word. What face does he have as a father?

I also promised him to return to Beijing to report on his work during the Chinese New Year. I don't know what good drama will be caused when he comes back. Thinking that Emperor Xia is happier here, he said: "Let him come in."

The news spread to the Meridian Gate, and Zhuge Yuanba brought an old eunuch into the palace.

If Xiao Rui were here, he would be shocked to find out that this old eunuch is Hua Tuo?

When did he cleanse himself?

Hua Tuo would definitely say to him resentfully: "Isn't this His Highness' idea?"

Even if Commander Zhuge was the commander of Iron Dragon Riders, it would be extremely difficult to hide from the secret spies and bring Hua Tuo into the palace. After all, Hua Tuo was quite old and could not pretend to be an imperial guard or guard. So Zhuge Yuanba had no choice but to ask Hua Tuo to shave off the beard hanging down to his chest and put on eunuch clothes.

Hey, don't tell me, this dress really looks like an eunuch.

If it weren't for the full loyalty, Hua Tuo would never do such a thing, and his favorite beard would just disappear? In other words, for Xiao Rui, he was considered true love.

Loving love.

When they came to the bedroom, the two entered the hall to meet.

Emperor Xia sat in front of the dragon table reading, glanced at Zhuge Yuanba, and said, "You came to ask for an interview at such a late hour, what can you do? Are you running errands for your niece and son-in-law? See your future!"

Zhuge Yuanba was speechless for a moment, and said: "Returning to Your Majesty, it is His Majesty's reason that Iron Dragon Riders have no battles to fight. You don't let your humble post go to the border. How can a humble post be a big deal? As for running errands, they are all serving the royal family. Your Majesty is ashamed to ridicule Humble job?"

Emperor Xia threw the book on the table, and scolded with a smile: "You, you have never lacked the courtesy of a monarch and minister. With this temper, who dares to let you go to the border. If you go, you will be a titan who does not abide by military regulations. A group of arrogant soldiers. Tell me, what's the matter!"

Zhuge Yuan overbearingly said: "The humble official was entrusted by King Xian, and I hereby bring a genius doctor into the palace."

Hua Tuo hurried out of the queue, bowed and said: "Hua Tuo, a grass-roots man, pay homage to my emperor, long live my emperor!"

Emperor Xia looked at Hua Tuo dressed as an eunuch, and said with a smile: "You are so cunning, King Xian, you have kept me in the dark, what about others? Could it be that he left the capital and returned secretly?"

Hua Tuo said: "His Royal Highness really went to Pudu Temple to offer incense and pray for His Majesty. He begged Commander Zhuge to help and take the grass-roots people to treat His Majesty!"

Emperor Xia was stunned for a moment, then laughed and scolded: "This kid, it seems that he finally got the chance to go out of the city. I guess he won't come back if he doesn't have fun. How unreasonable it is!"

The villains couldn't help muttering: "You still talk about others, your Majesty..."

"What did Zhuge Aiqing say? Louder! I can't hear you clearly!" Emperor Xia asked with a stare.

Zhuge Yuanba immediately said honestly, "The humble official didn't say anything! The humble official didn't dare to say anything! Your Majesty may have misheard because of the fever."

Emperor Xia gave him a hard look, then raised his arm, and said: "Let me see the medical skills of the genius doctor who was praised by King Xian."

Hua Tuo stepped forward respectfully and took the pulse of Emperor Xia. Then he asked Hai Dafu about some things. He served Emperor Xia personally, so naturally he knew very well about Emperor Xia's daily necessities.

After hearing about it, Hua Tuo retreated to his original position and said respectfully, "Report to Your Majesty, Caomin has already seen it."

"Oh? Have you ever seen the cause of my fever?" Emperor Xia asked.

Hua Tuo said: "The grassroots suspect that His Majesty is deeply poisoned!"

As soon as these words came out, Hai Dafu quickly knelt down, trembling all over. As the palm print eunuch who personally took care of Emperor Xia's food and clothing, His Majesty was poisoned, and he could not escape the crime.

Zhuge Yuanba was also surprised, but he was not surprised when he saw Emperor Xia's unsurprised expression.

Emperor Xia said: "Do you know what kind of poison it is?"

Hua Tuo said: "There are many poisons in the world, and the grassroots don't know what kind of poison your majesty is poisoning, but they can basically judge that it is a poisonous gas that interferes with the food that your majesty takes, so that the poison entangles the body and induces persistent fever. Your Majesty, Caomin would like to have the courage to ask one thing!"

Emperor Xia smiled and said, "Ask, I forgive you for your innocence."

Hua Tuo asked, "Your Majesty, have you not gone to the bathroom since the fever?"

Emperor Xia nodded and said, "That's right."

Then he glanced at Hai Dafu who was kneeling, and said, "Get up."

Hai Dafu got up hurriedly, he recalled for a while, His Majesty did not go to the toilet these few days, it was just a little convenience.

Hua Tuo continued: "The toxicity is accumulated in your majesty's body, and if you can't expel it, it is the cause of the fever. The grass people only need to prescribe a medicine for clearing away heat, detoxifying and laxative, to expel the toxin from the body, and your majesty's fever will naturally disappear. will back off!"

Xia Huang smiled and said: "Sure enough, it's a genius doctor, Haibanban, with a genius doctor to write the prescription, you prepare the medicine yourself, remember, don't let anyone know!"

"Yes!" Hai Dafu immediately took the order and took Hua Tuo down.

Only Zhuge Yuanba and Emperor Xia were left in the bedroom.

Emperor Xia pointed to the seat and said, "Sit down!"

Zhuge Yuanba sat down and couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty is not curious about who injected the poison?"

Emperor Xia asked back: "What's the use of being curious, can you find out?"

"Then let's just let it go? If you can inoculate this kind of poison now, you will be able to inoculate a deadly poison in the future!" Zhuge Yuanba said.

Emperor Xia shook his head with a smile, and said: "Don't worry, this kind of poison is quite special. The reason why it is not fatal is that it can only have a certain impact on the body through the principle of yin and yang. Limited. Once the truly deadly poisonous gas or poison gets close to me, it will be discovered by the imperial army and the servants, and they will test it for me first. Of course, there is another kind of poison, which is the poison that accumulates over time. This kind of poison is hard to guard against, which is why I never The reason for not eating the same dish and one tea for a long time!"

Zhuge Yuan overbearingly said: "Why does the humble officer feel that His Majesty already knew about his physical condition?"

Emperor Xia didn't answer him, but picked up the scroll and continued reading.

Zhuge Yuanba was well aware of Emperor Xia's sophistication, and not answering this action was a tacit consent. He couldn't help but praise, Your Majesty will always be Your Majesty!

Not long after, Hua Tuo came back after writing the prescription, and Zhuge Yuanba also got up to leave the palace.

At the same time, the three of Xiao Rui had already traveled seventy or eighty miles south to Lishui County, stayed here for the night, continued on their way tomorrow, and arrived at Pudu Temple in half a day.

Pudu Temple is next to Danyang Lake, and it is the largest temple in Gyeonggi. There are many pilgrims, and the presiding abbot is an eminent monk. After finally coming out this time, Xiao Rui came here with the scenery of Danyang Lake in mind.

Danyang Lake got its name because there are red poplars all over it, and there are red poplars everywhere.

Danyang Lake has beautiful scenery. When the water is in full swing in summer, the ocean is reserved and vast, with sails and gulls haunting it. In the middle of winter, the water dries up, the lake beach is exposed, and there are a lot of aquatic crops such as reeds and sedges, so the scenery is slightly worse.

I found a good inn in Lishui County. Unexpectedly, the business of the inn was booming, and there were only two rooms left.

The three of them stayed and asked for some food and drinks. After asking the innkeeper, they learned that there was a grand ceremony in Pudu Temple in the past few days, so the inn was full. If they came a little later, they might not be able to stay.

Xiao Rui was delighted, he was just out to play, but he didn't expect there would be a Fa conference, so he should go and see it, and when he was full of wine and food, Xiao Rui washed up and went to bed.

In the early morning, Xiao Rui was suddenly awakened by a notification sound in his mind.

He hurriedly looked it up, only to see the system prompt: "Mission completed: Persuade Jian Jiuxiao to go west to Dazhao, destroy Cao's clan, descending value +30, current descending value is 60/100."

Xiao Rui was stunned, Polu just completed the task and convinced Jian Jiuxiao?

Sure enough, there are three unfilial traits and no descendants are the biggest. Polu has talent and emotional intelligence, and he just has an appetite for Jian Jiuxiao. Sure enough, as long as his mouth is sweet, there is nothing he can't solve!

If so, continue to be sweet!

This can be regarded as one of the characteristics of the strongest mouth escape skill!

Although he has a handsome face, Zuidun's skill in this area is still a little weak, he can't reach the realm of invincibility, he needs to be ashamed and brave.

Being awakened, Xiao Rui couldn't fall asleep, so he simply went out for a walk.

It was not yet dawn at this time, and the lobby of the inn downstairs was pitch black, but an oil lamp was lit on a table in a corner, and under the flickering light, a figure was reflected.

Looking at her figure, she seemed to be a woman. There were several dishes on the table, which were already cold. She was having a drink with wine.

Is this the realm of morning wine?

Drink until you fall asleep naturally, wake up and continue to drink, the beautiful wine can't live up to it.

"Friends upstairs, meeting by chance is worse than meeting each other. Why don't you come down and have a drink together?" Suddenly, the woman downstairs spoke.

Xiao Rui froze for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay!"

After climbing down the stairs and coming to the table, Xiao Rui saw the woman's face clearly.

She should be in her forties, but she is well maintained. She looks like someone in her thirties. It can be seen from her voice and appearance that she was also a magnificent beauty when she was young.

It's a pity that beauties will grow old one day.

No wonder men love beauty more than country, because beauty ages faster than country.

"I'm Xiao Jiurui, I don't know how to call him?" Xiao Rui asked.

"You can call me Aunt Ying!" the woman laughed.

Xiao Rui gave him a squint, taking advantage of me! In the end, seeing that she was older, I gave her a face and called: "Aunt Ying, it's the first time we meet, do you want to give the younger generation some greetings? After all, the aunt has called."

Is Xiao Rui someone who will suffer?

The woman smiled and said, "Okay, if you want a meeting gift, I will give you a meeting gift."

After finishing speaking, she took out more than a dozen small paper packages from the packages on the woman's table, all of which were small and tightly packed.

"These are good things!" the woman laughed.

Xiao Rui wondered, what are these?
