46, Usurper General vs Qing Gui Gongzi 24(1/2)
It wasn't until the tearful eyes were closed that Yan Xiao let go of his hand as if he had lost all strength. Two clear fingerprints were left on the thin and already sunken cheeks, and the blood on his lips had dried up, and the smeared
The color on the pale face is shocking...
This miserable and emaciated appearance completely betrays the high-spiritedness he had in his old days.
Yan Xiao stared blankly for a long time, his half-draped eyelids hiding the sadness in his eyes. He leaned forward, followed the blood on his chin, licked upwards, and finally landed on the soft lips.
Little by little, he sucked and licked the wound, his Adam's apple moved up and down, and strands of blood mixed with the bitterness of the concoction... were swallowed by him.
This exposed vulnerability only lasted for a moment. By the time Yan Xiao walked out of the door, he had returned to his usual appearance.
He asked several doctors who came over, "What's going on?"
He shouldn't have woken up at this time.
All the old doctors with white beards and hair looked at each other in confusion for a while, and finally one of them spoke, "The human body has the ability to reconcile yin and yang and self-resolve... After using the same medicine for a long time, no matter how good the medicine is, it may not work.
It’s hard to maintain…”
Yan Xiao's face darkened slightly, and the killing energy accumulated on the battlefield could not be restrained from leaking out for a moment, and all the doctors couldn't help but take a step back.
This situation finally made Yan Xiao calm down a little. He raised his hand to his forehead and pressed it twice to calm down the sudden surge of blood lust. He cupped his hands and said, "Then... I'll bother you all."
The assassination case on the day of the annual banquet has been under investigation for more than three months, and finally came to light last month. It turned out that it was the former deposed prince, and now His Royal Highness Prince Ping, who planned it.
However, the evidence was conclusive, and just when it was time to arrest him, His Highness Prince Ping brought more than ten thousand elite soldiers from nowhere and directly surrounded the capital.
The incident occurred suddenly, and there was no time to contact the troops stationed in the capital. The entire capital became an isolated island under siege.
People in the capital have lived in peace and contentment for many years, but they have never seen such a situation before. Suddenly, people were panicked, and some even began to consider King Ping's condition of "handing over Li Tanyi and then retreating"...
At this critical moment, Yan Xiao only led a bodyguard of 3,000 people. They entered and exited several times, breaking through the siege and capturing the bandit leader Ping Wang alive. This deed made his reputation in the capital reach its peak.
The witnesses and material evidence were all available, and Prince Ping was not a tough man. He vomited everything out after being interrogated for only three days.
A few days later, the news spread to the world that King Ping had colluded with the Huns in the north and planned to rebel.
Amidst the excitement, another piece of news came -
Upon hearing this letter, His Majesty was so angry that he suddenly became "suddenly ill" and had to rest in the palace.
The emperor's harem was empty and he had no heirs. This time he "fell ill" and the court fell into chaos. At this critical moment, Yan Xiao, who was at the peak of his popularity in the capital, took over the important task and supervised the government affairs on his behalf.
It's been more than a month now...
This person is truly above ten thousand people now. As for the "one person" who is "under one person", his life or death is still uncertain in the palace... Under such circumstances, how can anyone dare to accept his courtesy?
The doctors all knelt down to avoid him.
Yan Xiao didn't force it, he just insisted on finishing the etiquette and solemnly repeated it again before leaving, "I'd like to thank you all... for putting in the trouble."
However, when he was about to leave, the oldest old doctor suddenly said, "Master Marquis, please stay."
Yan Xiao turned around.
When he met that gaze, the old doctor paused for a moment. He was already mentally prepared, but he hesitated for a moment.
But thinking about the unconscious man on the bed, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "'Intoxicating Dreams' is a secret from the previous court. This poison was originally made for torture, and there is no cure... The general said this
Forcing will only make people suffer more pain and torture in this world... He Ruo..."
"Click..."
Yan Xiaosheng pinched the fence surrounding the courtyard, and his eyes were covered with a thin layer of ice.
The old doctor's already intermittent words suddenly stopped, and after the word "He Ruo", he could not say anything else.
Under that compelling gaze, his face turned pale, and the cold sweat on his forehead condensed drop by drop.
"Qin Imperial Physician," Yan Xiao's tone was neither fast nor slow, as if he was suppressing something, "I know that the Qin family has been a doctor for generations, and you have been an imperial physician in the palace for many years... you must know a lot of secret recipes. Since detoxification cannot
, there must be no shortage of analgesic prescriptions, I hope you will always...don't hide your secrets."
Under this intense gaze, Imperial Physician Qin did not dare to shake his head, "I... must do my best."
Yan Xiao: "I hope Mr. Qin will not disappoint me."
In the end, he just said this and turned around to leave.
As soon as he left, the few doctors who stayed behind dared to take a deep breath.
A slightly younger-looking doctor stepped forward and grabbed Imperial Physician Qin's arm with trembling hands, "Teacher, why are you so impulsive?!"
Who is Yan Xiao?! Outside the city wall, the blood on the ground has not been cleaned up to this day.
Where have the "nobles" in the capital ever seen such a real fight with swords and guns? It was like a living god of murder!
After this battle, Yan Xiao's popularity was established, and his fear was real.
The doctor's eyes were filled with fear as he spoke. He was really worried that Marquis Wu An might disagree, so he drew his sword and chopped him down.
Is there no such precedent in the court? It is said that on the first day when Wu'an Hou came to supervise the administration, blood flowed from the Xuanzheng Palace to the Meridian Gate.
Of course, the facts are not that exaggerated. It is true that he killed many people. The change of power is already covered with a layer of blood.
Doctor Qin shook his head and just sighed.
——Such a person who was once so glorious can now only lie on the couch, being scrubbed and taken care of by others, with no dignity at all.
Doesn't Marquis Wu An know... For some people, this is simply a greater insult than death?
Think again about the unbearable rumors in Beijing...
The originally talented and handsome gentleman with the gentle breeze and bright moonlight has now almost turned into a villain who flatters, invites favors and serves others with sex!!
If it continues like this... when that proud body is buried underground, it will probably be full of stigma...
How can you teach people to tolerate it?! How can they tolerate it!!
Imperial Physician Qin could see through these things, and Yan Xiao could certainly see them clearly as well.
He even knew that if that person really woke up one day... he would probably hate him extremely.
But so what?
As long as he is alive, he is still alive... Even if he hates it, he will be happy with it.
Just those rumors...
Yan Xiao's expression suddenly darkened.
After he left the palace, he went straight to the palace, but he did not go to the Xuanzheng Palace, but to a remote courtyard in the northeastern corner of the palace.
It was the place of confinement used by King Li after his rebellion. It had been abandoned for many years, but now it is heavily guarded.
After Yan Xiao appeared, the soldiers guarding him saluted uniformly and immediately made way for the passage.
Yan Xiao didn't get too close. He stood at the edge of the yard after entering the door and didn't go any further.
Looking up, the emperor who was supposed to be resting in the palace actually appeared in this remote courtyard. He crossed his legs and I was on the eaves. A corner of his bright yellow robe hung down. It seemed to be stained with some dust. The color was not as bright as before. He
He held a bow and played with it.
There was no arrow on the bow, but Yan Xiao was sure that as long as he took a step forward, he would probably hear the sound of piercing the sky.
He frowned: Even if he was so heavily guarded, it did not prevent him from getting what he wanted, nor did it prevent him from fabricating those rumors...
Yan Xiao suppressed his anger and said, "You can call him 'brother'!"
How could you bear to tarnish his name like this?!
The sun illuminated from behind, and Li Tanyi's expression was hidden in the shadows, making it difficult to see clearly.
But vaguely, I heard a chuckle, "Yes, he is my brother."
"……mine!"
He paused and emphasized like a child.
"Those news...are they not the truth?"
"If I can't bear it, I will let my brother go home...the rumors will naturally be disproven."
Yan Xiao: "I never stopped him... If he wanted to leave, he would have left long ago."
Li Tanyi sneered and didn't believe it.
He knew how soft-hearted and affectionate his brother was. He hated people with such a temperament, just like his "father" who had never seen him for a moment in his eyes... But when the one who was criticized became
After oneself, it becomes addictive and cannot be escaped.
…
He knew clearly that his brother might not care about this person seizing power or even usurping the throne, but he would never be indifferent to his situation.
But during this period of time, there has been no news at all.
Then, it can only be that...my brother is under house arrest by Yan Xiao somewhere.
Li Tanyi thought about it, looking at Yan Xiao with colder eyes.
——On that day, he should have kept his brother in the palace.
The people in Taiyuan Hospital are no worse than those mountain doctors who have empty names...
