Chapter 19
??Jinchen Rabbit was quickly brought over. After opening the cage, it swayed out slowly, looking east and west and sniffing.
??Shi He beckoned and called out, "Xiangxiang."
??Mu Xiang subconsciously raised his eyes to look at Shi He, half of his ears went numb, maybe it was "the prostitute sees prostitution".
??Xiangxiang...
??Speaking of which, in Mu Xiang's memory, only his mother's queen called him this baby name on the day he returned to the palace. Maybe it wasn't considered a baby name, but the mother's queen just called him casually in order to get closer to him.
??The gray-golden rabbit kicked and ran over immediately after hearing Shi He's call, extremely nimble.
?? When Shihe walked to Chen Ke's couch, Xiangxiang followed him. As soon as he got close to Chen Ke's body, his two drooping ears immediately stood up, and his round eyeballs also showed some excitement.
??Chen Luo stood beside him nervously, waiting for the result.
??Xiang Xiang quickly got on the bed, her small body jumped up and down on Chen Ke's body, she lowered her head and sniffed from time to time, as if trying to drive away something.
??After a while, Chen Ke began to change. His complexion became more and more red, his closed eyelids began to tremble, and his lips pursed.
?? When everyone looked serious, Chen Ke suddenly sat up like a dead body, and "wow" vomited a black mass. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a mass of bugs.
??Xiangxiang's blue eyes lit up, and she rushed forward.
??"Don't!"
?? Before Mu Xiang finished speaking, Xiangxiang had already eaten two.
?? The worm that left the donor fled away, and Chen Luo was startled, and took several steps back.
??Shi He returned to Mu Xiang's side: "This is nourishment for it, let it eat it."
??Mu Xiang frowned: "Is this a Gu worm?"
??Shi He slightly shook his head: "Not really."
??Mu Xiang's heart skipped a beat. According to Shi He's intention, there are Gu in Chen Ke's body, but the expelled by Jin Chentu is not counted as Gu, then...
?? Before he had time to ask, Chen Luo yelled. It turned out that one or two caught fish were crawling up his feet.
??Xiangxiang heard the sound, pecked here and there, and wiped it out instantly.
?? There was the last one running towards the door. Xiangxiang swooped over at an extremely fast speed and ate it in her mouth. When she turned around, the little expression on her face seemed somewhat satisfied.
??It seemed to be full and tired. It jumped to Shi He's feet and rubbed it. Shi He picked it up and put it in Mu Xiang's arms. As a result, it struggled instantly and was not well-behaved at all.
??Hmm... probably understood the disgust in Mu Xiang's eyes.
??But since it was Shi He who put it in his arms, Mu Xiang definitely didn't have any reason to throw it away. He just threatened in a low voice: "I'll drink your stew if you go back again."
??Xiangxiang: "..."
??I am not a human, you are a real dog.
??Mu Xiang asked Shi He: "Aren't rabbits vegetarian?"
?? Shi He replied: "Some Jinchen rabbits can repel Gu, and they eat Gu insects while being vegetarian."
?? While speaking, Chen Ke, who had already sat up, closed his eyes and fell down again with a bang.
??Chen Luo said worriedly: "My lord, my brother..."
??Shi He approached the bed: "From today on, my brother will live in the National Teacher's Mansion and not be allowed to contact anyone?"
??Chen Luo and Mu Xiang were startled, the former didn't know what was going on: "My brother... isn't healed yet?"
??Shi He raised Chen Ke's sleeve slightly, and pulled it up. His forearm was covered with faint and strange black textures, which circulated in his body as if alive, appearing and disappearing from time to time. .
?? "Brother Ling's current situation is more troublesome..." Shi He seemed to have something to say, "I hope Master Chen can cooperate more."
?? "As long as I can save my younger brother, I will cooperate with my best!" Chen Luo was taken aback by the black texture, and said immediately.
??Shi He noticed Mu Xiang who was hesitating to speak, and asked, "What does Your Majesty want to say?"
??Since Shi He asked, Mu Xiang simply said: "Do you have to live in the National Teacher's Mansion?"
??Shi He: "Other places are not safe."
"You can take it to the imperial palace." Mu Xiang just didn't want anyone else to stay in the National Teacher's Mansion. After all, apart from Yadi's dynasty, he had never heard of anyone staying overnight in the National Teacher's Mansion.
??Shi He frowned invisibly, and even forgot his honorific title: "No, I'm too close to you."
??Mu Xiang was stunned for a moment, and said for a while, "He can live in the side hall of the East Palace, where there are no outsiders, and it is easy to control..."
?? Before he finished speaking, he shut his mouth, remembering that the East Palace was the palace of Shi He's former student Mu Yu: "Or find him a side hall in the harem—"
"Let's just go to the East Palace." Shi He turned around after saying that, and reported some herbs, "From last night, everyone in the Chen Manor who has been in contact with Mr. Chen must take the medicine, and it's enough to boil the medicine for two hours."
"Yes..." Chen Luo hesitated, "Can I send someone to enter the palace with my younger brother so that I can take care of them?"
?? Shi He paused slightly: "No."
??Mu Xiang didn't know why, but he still followed Shi He's words and said, "Master Chen, are you worried about people in the palace serving you?"
?? "Returning to Your Majesty, I have absolutely no such intention!" Chen Luo smiled wryly, "It's just that this happened suddenly, and I'm a little at a loss."
"Then it's settled." Mu Xiang was bitten by Xiangxiang just now, and his skin was covered with goosebumps. It was a rabbit's mouth that had eaten bugs...
"Does Gu also take the herbal diet that the national teacher just mentioned?" Mu Xiang asked absently, his hand passed through Jinchen Rabbit's thick hair, and calmly pulled a handful.
??Xiangxiang let out a hissing sound, quickly jumped down from Mu Xiang's arms, rushed into the cage and grinned at Mu Xiang.
??Mu Xiang looked at it coldly, wondering if the boss wanted to return it now.
"You don't need to take it." Shi He waited for this person to finish his fuss, and said, "Your Majesty smells like me."
??Mu Xiang: "..."
??Chen Luo: "..."
??Both of them have tasted a strange meaning from Shi He's words, but Ren Zhengzhu's words are straightforward and calm, which should be purely superficial.
??But……
??Chen Luo looked at Mu Xiang in dismay, Your Majesty, why are your ears so red!?
??Mu Xiang understood what Shi He meant. Shi He once said that he was invulnerable to all poisons, but they were together yesterday and fell asleep together at night, didn't they both have each other's breath on their bodies?
??But Mu Xiang still said that he didn't understand why he felt hot. He tugged at his collar: "What will happen if you don't take the medicine in time?"
??Shi He said: "May have a high fever."
??It's just that the high fever is okay. Although it is serious and may face death, at least it will be fine with the treatment of a doctor.
?? Judging from Shi He's act of separating Chen Ke alone, this Gu is obviously contagious. Mu Xiang was afraid that Chen Ke would come into contact with others on the way back last night, but if it's just a high fever, it's fine.
??He felt slightly relieved: "Should we go to the National Teacher's Mansion first?"
??Shi He paused: "Your Majesty can take Jinchen Rabbit and Mr. Chen back to the palace together."
"..." Mu Xiang frowned, seeing what Shi He meant, he was going to the National Teacher's Mansion alone.
?? But I didn't expect Shi He to be very frank, and said his purpose directly: "Today's matter also needs to be discussed with the prime minister."
"...Go early and come back early." Mu Xiang took a deep look at Shi He, turned around and left.
??He came back half way, picked up the cage containing the Jinchen Rabbit, and left without looking back.
??Chen Luo lowered her head silently. Why did he feel that His Majesty's angry appearance was very similar to his wife's usual state of being angry with him?
??Shi He watched Mu Xiang's back, and then glanced at Chen Luo when he was out of sight.
??Chen Luo woke up like a dream: "Your Majesty, I will send someone to send my younger brother back to the palace with His Majesty."
??————
??The gate of the National Teacher's Mansion finally opened again after many days. A carriage stopped outside the mansion, and an old man with silver hair got off from it, and hurriedly walked towards the mansion.
??If anyone in the court will find it here, this is the prime minister Song Jin.
??Song Jin came to the study with a familiarity, and saw Shi He flipping through a pile of ancient books: "Master Guoshi."
??Shi He nodded slightly and continued to read.
?? "I have heard about what happened last night." Song Jin's face was full of solemnity, "Master Guoshi, two hexagrams that you calculated more than 20 years ago have emerged."
??One is the dove occupying the magpie's nest...
??It is a black and unknown disaster brought by foreign lands.
??A veteran of the three dynasties, calling himself me and giving him a respectful title to a man who looks very young, is a bit strange when I think about it, but it doesn’t seem to violate the slightest sense of disobedience when I put it on Shi He.
Seeing that Shihe didn't respond, Song Jin remained silent for a while and said, "The City That Never Sleeps is just the beginning... Daxiang is in danger."
??Shi He looked down at the complex text on the ancient book, flipping through the pages, and said in a calm tone, "It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married."
?? "..." The corner of Song Jin's mouth twitched. He didn't expect it to be Shi He's words. He went out for a while, and his words became closer to the people?
?? "At the beginning, Emperor Ya died from the Gu in the Southern Territory, but this time they are even more aggressive... You can no longer just sit back and ignore them." When the Prime Minister said this, there was a slight complaint in his tone.
??Ya Emperor was suffering from the pain of the poisonous Gu and lingered on the sick bed, but Shi He was indifferent back then. The young Song Jin even knelt in front of Shi He, but he didn't help him, so cruel.
?? If Emperor Yadi had lived a few more years, how would Daxiang have come to where he is today.
??Shi He changed an ancient book and continued to read: "What does the Prime Minister want me to do?"
??Song Jin took a deep breath: "On the day of the palace change, I listened to you and spared the new emperor's life. You promised me to write more about Daxiang's predicament."
??Shi He found what he wanted, stared at it for a long time, and said, "I will do what I say."
??Song Jin breathed a sigh of relief: "I still don't understand why the Master of the State Teacher wants the new emperor to take the throne? It is difficult for him to become a qualified emperor. Can the fate of a tyrant really change?"
??Actually, what Shi He said about the second prince’s restraint of the prince was already a beautification result, and only Shi He and Song Jin knew the true hexagram——
?? If the crown prince succeeds in being captured by Mu Xiangjiu and wins the dragon throne, he will speak violently and all people will mourn.
??Shi He suddenly raised his eyes and asked, "Does the prime minister still remember the third hexagram?"
??Song Jin was taken aback. He first found a chair and sat down. In the past two years, his body was getting worse day by day, and he might have to go somewhere.
?? "I remember, but you didn't solve the hexagram."
??Shi He said slowly: "The third hexagram is, if he dies, Daxiang will die."
??————
??The morning court today is destined to be postponed, but it is not a big problem. The focus of the court dispute is who will be the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. Seeing that they can't argue for a long time, Mu Xiang chose two names from among them , one is a [-]-year-old minister, and the other is a scholar three years ago. He has been stationed in other places for the past three years, but he has made great achievements.
??He got up slowly: "You can choose one of the two, and this is the end of today."
??Jinchen Rabbit was sent to Weiyang Palace by Mu Xiang, but he was not released from the cage, but kept locked up without food.
??Jinchen Rabbit, who just finished eating a bunch of worms, seems to be hungry again. He was very domineering at first, but he became pitiful as time went by. Xiang.
"Didn't you grind your teeth with your lonely hand?" Mu Xiang washed his hands seven or eight times after returning, "If the national teacher doesn't come back today, don't eat."
??Xiangxiang yelled twice.
?? "If the national teacher never comes back—" Mu Xiang showed a friendly smile to Jin Chentu, "Then you will starve to death in a cage and be buried in Weiyang Palace. It will be an honor for you to be born as a rabbit."
??Xiangxiang: "..."
?? Is this a human officer?
