Chapter 53 Deep into the Palace

(Wow, wow, wow~~ The worm was bitten by the worm, and there were many bags on the back. It was so painful and itchy. It was unbearable. Others look nauseous, and the insects look sad... I hope the ointment I bought is effective, Buddha Buddha, infinite Taoist... Bless the bugs get better soon...)

Imperial Palace-Tai Hospital

After countless twists and turns, the maid of honor finally stood in front of the building, and the gulled-in regular characters on the plaque above the main hall door opposite were printed into sight - Tai Hospital.

The courtyard is divided into three floors, surrounded by green tiles and red walls, and only a long stone step leads to the main hall gate. The green trees beside the wall are planted along the wall, matched with the red wall, which is conspicuous.

The eyes look forward through the straight stone steps, and the people inside fall into the eyes of outsiders, or shuttle through them, or make soup in pharmaceuticals... Each person's duties is also methodical.

I heard that this building is built in layers, and the positions of people on different floors are not the same. As the saying goes, the seniors live in the upper position. Xi Xinmiao thought that he was here to inquire about private drugs, and such royal secrets should be the master of the top.

Looking up at the third floor of the imperial hospital, it was no less noisy than the ground floor. He raised his lips slightly, and there was a gully in his chest. Then he lowered his head and stepped on the steps to the main entrance.

"Who are you? The hospital is heavy, and it is also a little maid of honor who can come!" As soon as I entered the door, I was roared. The middle-aged man in a court suit roared directly. I guess he was scolded by his superiors to find someone to vent his anger.

"The slave - the maidservant was ordered to send medicinal herbs." He answered timidly, like a mosquito and fly, but he pulled the bag of medicine in his arms tighter.

The official level crushed people to death, and she put up with it!

Hearing the reply of the maid in front of her, she saw the items in her arms. The middle-aged man hummed from his nose and still said in a bad tone, "What are you still doing? Send it to the backyard quickly. It's been delayed for hours. Do you want to get a plate?"

"Yes--yes, yes." He hurriedly raised his steps and trotted out, afraid of provoking the difficult imperial doctor again.

"I said, Lord Chen, why are you angry with a little girl?" Others came over and patted him on the shoulder and joked.

"Well, that's also her bad luck! Empress Li asked me to develop some medicine to keep my youth forever. In the morning, I was just reprimanded that I had made no progress. Tell me, where is there such medicine in the world? The cycle of life is the way of heaven. Sooner or later, her face will die. Isn't she forced to make things difficult? As a result, I was scolded! Don't mess with me. It's burning now!" A face full of indignation and resentment.

Others shook their heads and walked away, but they didn't know that the sentence "Fei Li" had accurately floated into the ears of a maid of honor.

......

The third floor of the Tai Hospital is different from usual, and there is a ghost figure at this time.

Most of the three floors are places for important medical books. Rows of long and high bookshelves are full of thick medical books, and the heart is a little dazzling. Is there anyone in it?

"Bang---" The sound of the book landing.

Xi Xinmiao cursed badly and accidentally knocked him down while shopping.

"Xiao Anzi, is that you? I didn't tell you to be careful when taking care of them. These are all treasures. A little carelessness is the important thing for your head to move! I've been here for so long. Why are you still reckless? Don't you still want to stay in Xinzheku? In a corner not far away, there was an old and hoarse rebuke. He is an old man.

There is a door! Xi Xinmiao was secretly happy and slowly approached with the sound source.

"Xiao Anzi, I'm asking you, did you hear me!" The old doctor wanted to scold him again, but he suddenly felt that he had difficulty breathing. After coughing a few times, he was shocked to find that someone had sneaked in and that he had been kidnapped.

"There is a thorn----"

The hand that choked his throat suddenly tightened and cut the word "guest" in his throat. "If you want to die, you can continue to shout." The tone was cold enough to freeze people.

Behind the old doctor, Xi Xinmiao reached forward and grabbed his throat. She felt that he did not dare to act rashly and relaxed a little. In fact, she was also worried that if she couldn't control it and sent him to my Buddha in advance, wouldn't she have given up all her previous achievements?

"You--who are you and why---"

"You don't care who I am. As long as you answer my question obediently, you will have no worries about your life, otherwise..." Quickly interrupting the old man's words, she has no time to chat with him, and does not finish her words, leaving the hidden danger in the interruption, but it is more deterrent.

"What do you want to ask--what?"

"Do you know the solution of 'life'?" Go straight to the point with a single shot.

Hearing this, the old doctor was shocked and immediately denied, "I've never heard of it!"

"Well, since I can ask you this question, it shows that I know its existence and that it exists in the palace. Don't be in a hurry to deny it and think about how to answer it."

"I really don't know. If you want to kill, you can do it!"

In a word, I don't make a sound anymore, as if I'm really ready to die.

What an old man, stubborn to follow the donkey! Does he think she really dares not kill him?

No one is not afraid of death, which is very clear. It is only when you choose to give up life when you sometimes have to protect what you have to protect and conflict with life. Because if you don't give up this life, more lives will be involved in the future.

Some things are more important than life...

Thinking of this, Xi Xinmiao slowed down her tone slightly, and the evil in her eyes did not diminish. "It's not easy to achieve the position of imperial doctor."

Hearing the strange words of the woman behind her, the old doctor was frightened and more suspicious: What on earth is she going to do?

But everything is in vain. He won't say where the antidote is anyway! The taboo of the palace, say it, it is the great sin of the nine clans. If you die, you will die, and it is inevitable to involve the life of the whole family! After made up his mind, he let Xi Xinmiao go.

Looking at the stubborn old man who is still indomitable, Xi Xinmiao sneered and continued, "I know you are not afraid of death, and I also know the concerns you don't say. You are thinking that it's better for you to die alone than the whole family, right?"

Turn a blind eye to the shocked expression of the old doctor, the imperial power is supreme, and the heart is not confused.

"I won't kill you, but I won't let you go." With a gloomy smile, the old man trembled, "If I tell you that when you wake up tomorrow morning, you find yourself lying on the bed of a deep palace lady and are accidentally bumped into by your monarch, what kind of situation do you think it will be? Since I can sneak in here to talk to you, I should know that I can do that kind of thing easily.

The tone of discussion was slow, but the scared old doctor trembled repeatedly, this woman! This woman...

The old doctor who was afraid that he was still scared was not enough. Xi Xinmiao thought to himself, "Which lady should I choose? Now the favorite is Princess Li, isn't it better..."

"You! You! You----"You" can't say a complete word for a long time, and you are really angry.

Thinking of his courtiers, it took him a lot of time to get to today's position. To be honest, he is afraid of death, but it's okay if he is killed directly by this assassin, at least he can keep his reputation for a lifetime. However, she actually said that. As a courtier, she molesed the harem, what a heoly crime!? Death is not enough to pay off! Not only that, but it will also be spit on by the world and stink for thousands of years. Even if you die, you will be afraid that the bones will not exist, the soul will have no place to return, and the ancestors under the nine springs will not be at peace!

This female assassin is so awesome! He looked at people's hearts so thoroughly that he had to answer!

"Oh!" With a long sigh, he sighed helplessly, "That's all. I'll tell you, but you have to promise me that only you and I know about this."

"Don't worry, you know this matter, and heaven and earth know it. If there is a leak, you will be uneasy after death." Xi Xinmiao sootheed this fearless old man like an oath. The most important oath of ancient people, especially those who swear by death, is a heavy oath.

For Xi Xinmiao, swearing is also like farting. Who is stupid enough to fart and wait for the day when the oath will come true? If the old doctor likes to listen to these lies, she can give a few more for free... just to make him say it without scruples.

......

Crossing a corridor is the woodshed. Xi Xinmiao walked quickly, hoping that the maid of honor who was knocked unconscious by herself was still in a coma. It was a little late, and she didn't know if the party in Huayang was over.

But fortunately, today's task has been completed, recalling the hardships I have explored all the way: the coquettish eunuch, the middle-aged mania of "menopause", the old doctor who talked about Rory... This palace really has all kinds of birds, and it all of them hit her. This shit has to be said to be very accurate~~

In addition, the reason why she knew that she was scolded for nothing was the Lifei, and Xi Xinmiao was even more angry. I sent a medicine because she was scolded. She had a grudge against that Obasan in her last life, right? When you are old, you will be old. Don't always think about something that will last forever. That's a daydream! She just mentioned that it was intentional to send the old doctor to Princess Li. Maybe she was impatient. She really sent her a man!

still in resentment...

The sound of the door opening, a figure quickly flashed into the door, and then quickly closes it. In the blink of an eye, I could hardly notice it.

There is no sound in the woodshed...

After a while, the door creaked open, and someone looked at the situation around him: Everything is OK!

He straightened his clothes, straightened his neckline, hummed strange tunes that people in this world didn't know, and left.

Not long after the woman left, a figure came out at the corner of the corridor. He walked slowly to the door where the woman had just stood. He leaned over and bent down to pick up a piece of blue jade. His moist fingers gently stroked the lines on the jade pendant and looked up at the direction of the woman's disappearance. His eyes were dark and slightly hooked the corners of his lips. Silence. Just dragging the jade pendant with his hand, and his hair is white...
