"Master! The doctor from Jinyuyuan is here!" The boy came in to report.
A sneer flashed in Xie Yuanwen's eyes, "Look! As soon as he heard that I was sick, my brother couldn't sit still! He wanted to find out if I was really sick! Fortunately, I was prepared! Shaoyao, help me Go lie down on the couch!"
Shaoyao quickly called several maids to help Xie Yuanwen out of the tub.
Xie Yuanwen was already frozen...
I can't even climb out on my own.
When Xiao Nanxing came in, Xie Yuanwen had already dried himself and was lying on the bed.
"The eldest son seems to be suffering from cold..." Xiao Nanxing took his pulse and said, "You are a bit seriously ill and your fever won't go away... I'll prescribe a prescription..."
Xiao Nanxing left behind a satisfactory prescription, the kind that no doctor could fault.
"Thank you, Doctor Xiao! It's hard for my brother to be so concerned about my condition. I...I cough...forgive me for being seriously ill and unable to see him..." Xie Yuanwen said with a pale face and very weakly.
Xiao Nanxing smiled and said, "You're welcome, eldest son. It's best not to let the wind blow your sick body. You can just stay in the house with peace of mind these days. You'll get better in a while."
Xiao Nanxing left Fang Zi and resigned.
Before leaving, I accidentally saw the screen on the side of the bed.
In the shadow reflected by the screen, you can vaguely see the outline of the bathtub, and there are still some water marks on the ground near the screen.
Xie Yuanwen must have been taking a bath just now.
If your body is suffering from the cold, it is a good thing to soak in more hot water. But if it's hot water, why isn't there any heat mist in this room?
When he took his pulse just now, he noticed that Xie Yuanwen's cold air entered his body, and he seemed to be suffering from extreme cold.
There can't be cold water in this bucket, right? How strange.
Xiao Nanxing murmured in her heart and left Zhaoguang Garden.
Xie Yuanwen said angrily, "He actually used recuperation as an excuse to keep me in the house because he didn't want me to pick up my father tomorrow! Huh, Xie Lingxi is now married to a scheming daughter-in-law, and she will also play these tricks! "
"Let our doctor and grandma tell us that although I am very ill, it will be fine if I go out. Don't let grandma listen to their rumors!"
Shaoyao accepted the order and left.
……
In fact, he thought too much.
Xiao Nanxing has a kind heart as a doctor. When he sees a patient, he will inevitably say a few words.
He didn't go to the old lady to talk about this either.
But after returning to Jinyuyuan, he reported Xie Yuanwen's strange condition to the prince and his wife.
"The eldest son seems to be deliberately aggravating his condition. What kind of monster is he doing? Does he want to frame you for harming him? But you just came back today!" Xiao Nanxing was puzzled.
Xie Yuanwen wrote a poem targeting Xie Lingxi.
But he got sick when Xie Lingxi was away, so it’s not their prince’s fault!
Jiang Rong's eyes flashed and he understood Xie Yuanwen's little plan:
"I heard that he fell ill on the day my father-in-law was assassinated. He wanted to express his filial piety in front of his father-in-law."
"Ah?" Xiao Nanxing was puzzled, "Just because he is sick, does it prove that he is filial to the old prince? What kind of logic is this? I don't quite understand."
"He was worried about the old prince, so he couldn't afford to fall ill. Daxia rules the world with filial piety, and the entire capital must be praising him for his filial piety. And... if nothing else, he stepped on my husband and praised him!" Jiang Rong frowned slightly.
I am very tired of his little tricks.
There is a difference between the descendants of the family, and he is not qualified to compete with Xie Lingxi for the position of the crown prince.
Moreover, if he is really capable, he will go to Northern Xinjiang to join the army with the old prince, and through his military exploits, he will prove that he has the strength to succeed the Xie family army, so that the old prince can change his heir...
He is a character after all.
But he was greedy for life and afraid of death, and did not dare to go to the battlefield, so he took the civil service route and coveted the position of King of the North.
You can only use some unspeakable means, which is disgusting.
"Your concubine, you guessed it right! My slave is about to report it. Now rumors are spreading in the capital that King Bei has been assassinated. When life and death are uncertain, the prince and you... are enjoying themselves in the villa with you. They are very happy and waiting. Come on." Feicui stayed behind in Jinyuyuan, received the information from Caifeng, and said angrily:
"Only Xie Yuanwen is filial and worried about King Bei. They are really talking nonsense! This is too much!"
"Master Tao Han from Wanjuan Study School came to see you at home and wanted to discuss with you how to deal with this rumor. This servant put it off."
Because Xie Lingxi and Jiang Rong went to meet the Northern King and were not in the capital at all.
They can't come forward...
So Tao Han and others were anxious and couldn't do anything.
Xie Lingxi said calmly, "Don't worry about it."
"Indeed, the explanation for this kind of thing can only become darker and darker. First keep an eye on Xie Yuanwen, and then look for opportunities." Jiang Rong nodded.
What Xie Lingxi did cannot be disclosed.
Jiang Rong is definitely not the type to let others slander him. Look back later and find an opportunity!
……
The next day.
The King of the North returns to the capital.
The emperor specially ordered Prince Duan to welcome him personally. Originally, this kind of thing has always been the prince's job, but the prince's maternal ancestor, the Xun family, had just assassinated the King of the North, so it was not appropriate.
So only King Duan was left.
The Duanwang Party became very arrogant for a while. King Duan began to do some things instead of the prince, which was a hint to many courtiers.
The prince became even more anxious and even more murderous towards the emperor.
The conflict between the two parties became more intense.
This was the first time that King Duan welcomed his courtiers back to the capital. He specially arranged a very grand ceremony with all the courtesy and etiquette.
"The little king is here to welcome the Northern King back to the capital on the order of his father! The Northern King has pacified the Northern Desert this time and made an unparalleled contribution to the Great Xia. He is truly the pillar of the Great Xia!" Murong Shili looked cordial.
Xie Pingbei was not arrogant, he cupped his fists and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
The official interview was over.
"Father! You are back safely!" Xie Yuanwen immediately shouted loudly.
Xie Pingbei looked towards him.
The Xie family stood on the side of Murong Shili. According to the rules for receiving great heroes, except for the elder concubine who stayed at home, Concubine Li was not qualified to attend. All the children came to greet the Northern King.
Xie Pingbei saw Xie Lingxi and Jiang Rong at a glance.
After the children separated from him, they returned to Beijing smoothly and everything was fine.
His eyes moved to Xie Yuanwen next to Xie Lingxi...
He looked sick and pale, wrapped in a thick cloak, and supported by two maids beside him, looking very weak.
"Yuanwen, what's wrong with you?" Xie Pingbei asked with concern.
Xie Yuanwen was overjoyed! I'm coming! This trick really works.
The father has paid attention to him and will definitely be moved by him!
"When the eldest son heard that the prince was assassinated, he suddenly fell ill!" Shaoyao quickly replied.
Xie Yuanwen looked weak and coughed, "The child is worried about his father. Seeing that his father has returned safely, he can rest assured."
As he spoke, he tilted his head and pretended to be dizzy.
"Eldest Young Master! Eldest Young Master!" Shaoyao shouted hurriedly.
