Your Majesty, the princess ran away again!

Chapter 185 The Scapegoat, Xu



Chapter 185 The Scapegoat, Xu

"Why did you catch a cold last night?" Mu Nanyan put a heater in his hand, "You've been here for so long and still can't adapt? I'll take a good look at you when we get back to Beijing. You haven't eaten well in all these years. Look how thin you are."

Xiaodong hugged the small stove tightly and said, "Thank you, Master."

"Hey, why are you still so polite? We are all family. Call me sister. I still like to hear you call me sister." This little guy doesn't look very handsome at first glance, but now that he doesn't go out of the house for the past two days, Wan Xi puts makeup on his face every night, so that his skin has become more tender in the past two days, and there is more flesh on his face, giving people the feeling of a little puppy.

Xiaodong blushed and whispered, "Sister, sister."

Mu Nanyan had a lewd smile on her face, but why did it give me such a taboo feeling? The voice of "sister" sounded so nice!

"Hey~ Call me like this from now on." This disciple is really good.

Xiaodong turned his head and his ears turned red. He didn’t know why he felt so ashamed this time.

Mu Nanyan stopped teasing him. She must not scare the new disciple away, otherwise there would be no fun in the future.

The two of them arrived at the palace not long after riding in the car. A man in dark official uniform stood at the door, followed by a few eunuch-like people. However, the clothes were different from Dong Li's. Mu Nanyan was helped out of the car. These people didn't dare to let her get off by herself. Everyone knew the reputation of the Xu family, so how could they dare to let her get off by herself?

Xiaodong followed behind Mu Nanyan, shivering. He had never been here before. Was his master so brave? Not only was he not afraid, he seemed to have been here many times.

What he didn't know was that Mu Nanyan had indeed come here several times and took away a lot of good things. Well, she didn't take away, but came to take. As the saying goes, when you go out for a trip, you should always bring back some local specialties. It wasn't too much to take just a little bit.

The official uniform brought the two into the harem. Mu Nanyan covered herself with a veil when she entered the palace gate. Prince Beihan had seen her appearance before when he went to pay tribute, so she decided to keep a low profile to be on the safe side.

"You two, you are here. I had no choice but to invite you here today. I wanted to go up the mountain to invite people, but I heard from a few soldiers that they saw people coming down the mountain. So I invited you two here. I am really sorry for offending you."

Mu Nanyan said in a serious tone, "What's going on? I'm in a hurry and can't stay down there for too long. You know I came down the mountain to find a medicine. Don't waste time."

The senior official said humbly, "Yes, yes, yes. Today, I asked you two to come here because of the Empress Dowager. She... I can't explain it clearly. Please go in and take a look."

"Let's go." Mu Nanyan glanced at the flowers at the door. This old lady really knows how to enjoy herself. She probably needs to change the pot of flowers every half a day. It's really strange to grow such cold-sensitive flowers in such a cold place like Beihan.

The senior official led the way in front, and Mu Nanyan followed behind and looked around casually. She had been to the imperial palace several times, but this was her first time to the Empress Dowager's bedroom. She didn't expect it to be in such a remote place. No wonder she hadn't found it before.

"Your Majesty, the people are coming." The senior official knelt on the ground in uniform.

"Stand up." Emperor Beihan stood up hastily, not seeing the two people, "Where are they?"

The senior official looked back and was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Mu Nanyan was just fascinated by the vase at the door. "Second Master, the emperor is looking for it."

"Okay, okay, okay." She wasn't wasting time, so why was she always urging him? Few people who have lived in the deep palace for so many years have fatal diseases.

Emperor Beihan saw Mu Nanyan standing up quickly. He realized that the Xu family was of extraordinary status, which could make the old emperor so humble. So what on earth was controlled by them? Gossiping people are gossipy souls. If you don't know the truth, you will feel uncomfortable.

Xiaodong poked Mu Nanyan secretly, "Master, His Majesty is talking to you."

"Okay." Mu Nanyan was not angry because he was her disciple. If it were anyone else, she would have already sentenced him to death in her heart.

Mu Nanyan's tone was not very good, full of impatience: "You have to wait for me to see it, why doesn't your Majesty believe me? If you don't believe me, let's go. There are still many things to do on the mountain. This time I came down because of something. I don't know when I will come back next time."

"That's not what I meant. I just care about the Queen Mother. As a son, I hope you can understand." Emperor Beihan's words were even more humble. Of course, he really came here to cure the disease. Since he had accepted a disciple, it would be a good opportunity for him to practice with the Queen Mother. Otherwise, what would he do if he met someone of extraordinary status in the future?

She was really worried about this disciple.

"Um, is this person coming in too?" Emperor Beihan stopped Xiaodong. After all, it was not appropriate for a man to go in with the Queen Mother.

Mu Nanyan raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why? This is my apprentice, so of course I have to bring him along. Besides, in our eyes, there is no difference between men and women."

Emperor Beihan said nothing more and stepped aside to let the two enter. A weak voice came from the bed, "Trouble."

Mu Nanyan put down the medicine box and said, "It's not a big deal. Just give me the consultation fee."

"It's natural."

Mu Nanyan arranged the cushions and half-opened the bed curtains. "Stretch out your hand."

The Queen Mother stretched her hand out from under the quilt, revealing just the wrist. "Miss Xu is very young. I wonder which department she belongs to?"

Xiaodong stood aside, startled, thinking that Mu Nanyan was about to be discovered. He had forgotten to tell his master about the internal affairs of the Xu family for so long. "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."

Although the Queen Mother was angry, she did not dare to say much. Her life was in the hands of this man. She also blamed the useless people in the Imperial Hospital. Otherwise, how could she bear this anger?

After feeling the pulse, Mu Nanyan stood up and said, "Xiaodong, you try it."

Xiaodong responded and sat down. He put his hand on the pulse and closed his eyes to feel it slowly. Mu Nanyan told him a few key points of feeling the pulse on the way here. "Do you feel it?"

Xiaodong was very excited. This was the first time he felt a pulse in three years. "I felt it, Master. Oh no, sister."

"Very good, this is caused by impatience. It's not a big deal, but it's not a small deal either. Acupuncture is the most effective and will work in two days. But we don't have so much time and can only prescribe medicine. My unique secret recipe will cure you in half a month. Don't worry, Queen Mother. The most taboo thing during this period is to get angry. Don't eat spicy food."

Mu Nanyan put away the small cushion, thinking it might be some serious illness, so she brought the medicine box with her. "Oh, by the way, plant some flowers and plants in the house, and the red spots on your body will disappear, and you won't itch at night."

The Queen Mother didn't dare to say a word. Her original intention was to treat the red spots on her body, but she didn't expect to find out that the patient was suffering from anger attack. The people of the Xu family are extraordinary. Their medical skills are unique. I heard from the third brother that Dongli has a miracle doctor, and I don't know what will happen if he meets the Xu family.

At this time, the Xu family was deserted, the serious criminals were executed on the spot, and the other Jun Zhuoyuans were packed up and sent away, and they had no hope of having a good life in this life.

Mu Nanyan came out from the inner room. Emperor Beihan immediately stood up when he saw her. "How are you two?"

"It's no big deal. I'll prescribe a prescription and you'll be fine after drinking it in half a month." Mu Nanyan found a place to sit down, and the eunuch immediately took out paper and pen.

After writing it, Mu Nanyan gave it directly to Xiaodong, "Take a look at the prescription. You may not understand it now, but I want you to remember them. Go back and figure out the ten herbs yourself."

The eunuch put away the things and served her a cup of tea. This tea was from Kyoto, and it had a strong fragrance. The old emperor was really willing to spend money on it. "You can pay the consultation fee as you see fit. Send it directly to the inn today. My people are there. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Emperor Beihan didn't dare to keep the two more people. "Okay, Ronglong will go and see you off." The medical fee was another problem. If he gave more, he would not be able to give it away because the national treasury had been stolen and he couldn't afford it. If he gave less, he was afraid that the Xu family would be dissatisfied.

The official who brought the two in took them out again, and this time he only sent them to the palace gate. The same carriage was used to send the two back. Mu Nanyan went back and started to pack up. Wushuang didn't understand why, "Miss, are we still leaving today?"

"Of course I'll go." Mu Nanyan continued pretending.

Wushuang continued to ask: "But you won't charge for the consultation?"

"No more." It's not that she is generous, it's mainly because the national treasury is all gone, what can he give her? Ask from the harem? She doesn't want that little thing. He has been running away for so long, it's time for people to know the truth, but she can't put the blame on Dong Li, so the blame has to be given to the Xu family. They really won the prize, and others are envious!

"Where's Jun Zhuoyuan?"

Wushuang replied: "The prince has already prepared it and said he will leave when you come back."
