Chapter 379 The Second Weasel Prince
Three more days passed in the blink of an eye. According to Imperial Physician Guan, the emperor no longer needed to take medicine. All he needed to do next was to eat well and have a regular schedule.
The imperial army breathed a sigh of relief, no longer having to give the emperor the painful nauseating medicine every day.
But Guo Kang frowned. He always felt that the matter was far from over. The calmness of the past few days made him uneasy. You know, the river is always calm before the tide rises.
It was his turn to be on duty today, and Guo Kang was indescribably upset, because his left eyelid kept twitching, as if something bad was about to happen.
Guo Kang cursed secretly in his heart. Could it be that, as Pei Mo said, the person behind the scenes was the second prince?
If it was really the second prince, it would be difficult to handle.
He was lowering his eyes and thinking, and never wanted to say that Cao Cao Cao Cao had arrived.
"The second prince has arrived——"
The eunuch singing the ceremony had a high-pitched voice that was very penetrating. Although it could not be said to be pleasant, it was not disgusting either.
But today's voice made Guo Kang feel extremely unpleasant. He was really afraid of what might come.
I saw a bright yellow carriage parked in front of the palace gate. A boy stepped forward to lift the curtain of the carriage for the second prince, and another boy knelt on the ground to use him as a footstool.
Just like that, the second prince stepped on the young man's back and fell to the ground. He glanced at the guards at the palace gate with a stern expression, but did not want to see the commander of the imperial army.
He immediately put on a smiling face, walked to Guo Kang in a "kind" manner, and greeted in a friendly tone, "It turns out to be the Commander-in-Chief. I'm sorry, I'm disrespectful. How are you doing lately, Commander-in-Chief?"
Guo Kang saw the condescending expression on his face when he got off the carriage, and lamented that he hadn't noticed before that the second prince looked so unattractive.
Sigh is a sigh, the superficial work that should be done still needs to be done.
"I have seen His Highness the Second Prince, and he is still the same. Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."
At this time, the servant next to the second prince was taking a food box from the boy's hand, and Guo Kang couldn't help but take a second look.
Noticing his gaze, the second prince smiled slightly and looked back at the food box, "I heard that my father's health was improving, and I was finally relieved. No, there happens to be good tonics in the house.
I, the prince, ordered my servants to boil the medicinal ingredients and bring them into the palace while the weather is warm, so that my father can take a sip."
Guo Kang didn't show it on his face, but his heart was ringing with alarm. He suddenly remembered Pei Mo's words, 'If something happens to the emperor, the biggest beneficiary in the court will be the second prince.'
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but look at the food box with a little more vigilance in his eyes.
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince is very filial, and I admire him for that. However, there are regulations in the palace that everything brought into the palace must be inspected on a routine basis. Please cooperate with His Highness the Second Prince."
Guo Kang said, waving his hand to the deputy general beside him to come forward for inspection.
But the second prince became more and more unhappy, "What do you mean, Lord Commander? Could it be that this prince will be unfavorable to my father?"
As he spoke, the expression on his face seemed to be shocked, but his eyes were dull and dull, making the second prince's face look like it was covered with a fake face.
Guo Kang thought that if the second prince smiled, he would be able to vividly explain what it meant to smile but not smile.
"How could the second prince have such an idea? This is the duty of our imperial army. Naturally, Wei Chen can trust His Highness the Second Prince. It is just a formality so that Wei Chen can explain to the emperor. I also ask His Highness the Second Prince not to embarrass Wei Chen.
.”
Who doesn’t know how to use your strength to fight?
Guo Kang said, with a groveling look on his face, but what he said left no one with a reason to refute.
The second prince held his breath and secretly wondered why Guo Kang was so difficult to deal with today.
"That being the case, let me investigate if you want, Commander." The second prince waved his sleeves dissatisfied, "By the way, Commander, please pay attention. These medicinal materials are all excellent. It took a long time to prepare them."
Boil it into a bowl of essence. If it is touched and spilled, the commander-in-chief may not be able to afford the compensation!"
Guo Kang cupped his hand and said, "If the second prince is here, I will definitely be cautious."
He thought to himself, what was wrong with him, Li actually heard a threat from the second prince's words. It seemed that this bowl of tonic could not be put into the palace and brought to the emperor's mouth.
The deputy general stepped forward and was about to open the lid of the food box when a flash of light flashed in Guo Kang's eyes and he stopped the deputy general's movement, "Let me do it. This medicine is precious. Don't spill it if you are a frivolous person."
The lieutenant general was confused. Not long ago, the commander had clearly praised his hands and feet as being the most meticulous. Why did he say that he was careless today?
I couldn't figure it out, so the deputy general responded and stepped back. Anyway, just listen to the commander's words.
As soon as Guo Kang opened the lid, he was hit by a strong smell of medicine. However, the smell of medicine was not unpleasant, but it was an inexplicable smell that made people think that the medicine must be quite effective.
Good medicine tastes bitter, so there must be something weird about such a 'not bitter' medicine. Guo Kang's heart sank and he raised his hand to pick up the bowl of medicine.
His actions made the second prince's heart tremble, and he quickly said, "Your Majesty, just take a look, why do you have to bring it out..."
Before he finished speaking, Guo Kang's hand slipped and the bowl of medicine suddenly fell to the ground!
"Bang——"
There was a crisp cracking sound, and the hot concoction suddenly splashed everywhere, and a lot of it was sprinkled on the clothes of the second prince.
Guo Kang immediately knelt down and said, "Damn it, Wei Chen. This medicine is too hot. Wei Chen didn't hold it firmly and dropped the second prince's medicine. Please punish me!"
The deputy general took a breath of air and knelt on the ground.
Before the second prince could react, he stared blankly at the kneeling Guo Kang and the medicine flowing on the ground. The expression on his face was even more exciting than a dramatic face change.
"You, you, you are bold!"
The hands of the second prince pointing at Guo Kang were trembling. He almost lost his breath and was speechless. These were medicinal materials that he had spent a lot of money to obtain. In order to buy these medicinal materials, he had to bear the pain.
Nearly half of the savings in the warehouse!
With this fall, Guo Kang lost all his money and everything he had was in vain!
"Wei Chen deserves to die. Wei Chen is willing to be punished. Please calm down, Your Highness, the Second Prince."
Guo Kang lowered his head and gritted his teeth, imagining the punishment he would face next.
The situation was tight, and he really couldn't think of any way to stop the second prince from sending the medicine into the palace. He could only break the jar, and he had to throw it himself.
If it was a lieutenant general, Guo Kang was worried that if he was the one who wanted to throw the bowl away, I am afraid that the second prince would not let this powerless lieutenant go.
"I think you did it on purpose. Do you know how much effort I put into brewing this bowl of medicine?"
The second prince was almost going crazy. He scratched his neck, his face turned red, and his eyes glowed with a sinister coldness, "You deserve to be punished!"
