Chapter 147

As soon as the words fell, Huang Dechang saw the prince strode into the Shiyue Pavilion and went straight to the inner room.

I saw Jiang Meiren leaning weakly on the head of the bed, her complexion was acceptable.

However, the cheerful person in the past has lowered his eyes, and there is an inseparable sadness between his brows and eyes.

Pei Xuanling saw guilt and sadness in those beautiful eyes.

In addition, there are many complex emotions that are unreadable.

"Your Highness, are you here?" Jiang Shishi lifted the brocade quilt, and was about to get out of bed to salute the prince.

Pei Xuanling quickly came to the bed and helped the woman, "There's no need to be polite."

After sitting down in the armchair by the bed, Pei Xuanling asked Chun Xing: "Have you called the imperial physician for your young mistress?"

Chun Xing: "Early this morning, Concubine Ruan called the imperial physician to show the young master over."

Pei Xuanling: "What did the imperial physician say?"

Chun Xing: "The imperial doctor said that the young master is rushing to attack the heart, which is caused by a heart disease, and prescribed a prescription to dispel the heart fire."

Pei Xuanling originally thought that the imperial physician couldn't see any problems, but he didn't expect that the imperial physician actually noticed something wrong this time, "When did your young master get sick?"

Chun Xing: "Just yesterday."

Jiang Shishi: "Your Highness, it's nothing. I've always been weak. It's just an old problem. It doesn't matter."

The more Jiang Meiren kept Chun Xing from talking, the more Pei Xuanling felt that there was something wrong.

His gaze fell on Chun Xing, and the man ordered coldly, "Go on."

"." Chun Xing secretly glanced at Jiang Meiren, and then lowered her eyes: "Yesterday, after the young master learned that Jiang Gongshi failed the palace examination, he has been depressed. He didn't think about tea and food, and then he fell ill. .”

Hearing this, Pei Xuanling probably knew what was going on.

Seeing the woman like this, Pei Xuanling was moved with compassion.

Because his people found out that Jiang Chongjin's failure in the palace examination was indeed related to the Kangwang party.

It was Kang Wang who asked his father-in-law to target Jiang Chongjin, and his father-in-law was a well-known scholar of the Imperial Academy.

According to the investigation of the Qingyi team, although Ji Xueshi did not give an explicit order, he asked the examiners of the Imperial Academy to target Jiang Chongjin when marking the papers.

But Ji Xueshi, as the chief examiner, expressed his dislike for Jiang Chongjin both openly and secretly.

Then, the ministers of the Imperial Academy would naturally figure out what he meant, and all members rejected Jiang Chongjin's article.

In this way, even though some examiners in the Ministry of Rites liked Jiang Chongjin's article, Jiang Chongjin still failed the ranking.

Thinking of this, Pei Xuanling felt ashamed.

If it weren't for the reason of fighting for the reserve, maybe Jiang Chongjin would have passed the palace examination.

After pondering for a while, Pei Xuanling held his lips, "It's not that there is no room for maneuver in the matter of your brother's failure."

"Really?" Jiang Shishi turned her head and looked at the prince expectantly.

Pei Xuanling nodded, "Yes", "It's true."

"But the imperial court has already released the rankings, has the dust settled in the palace examination?" Jiang Shishi lowered her head, "Are you trying to make me happy?"

"Since Gu said so, he has already thought of a way." The man spoke with confidence.

"Then tell me with my concubine, what can you do?"

Pei Xuanling: "If you know about the court's secrets, it will be bad for you. You can just wait and see the result."

"Well, the concubine is waiting for the good news from His Highness."

"However, don't get too excited. You have to eat well, so I can find a way to help your brother." Pei Xuanling looked straight ahead and sat upright.

"I'll eat, I'll eat right now!" Jiang Shishi turned her head and ordered Chun Xing, "Chun Xing, go to the imperial dining room and get some appetizers."

Halfway through the conversation, she turned to the prince and asked, "Your Highness, have you had dinner yet?"

Pei Xuanling: "I haven't eaten yet."

Therefore, Jiang Shishi told Chun Xing, "His Royal Highness is the most honored guest of our Shiyue Pavilion. You can go to the imperial dining room and order a pickled pepper bullfrog, a pepper chicken, and a Kung Pao shrimp ball. In addition, go to the lake to fish Stewed tofu soup with crucian carp.”

"Pepper chicken remember that if it is a tender chicken, only take three parts of chicken breast, chicken back, and chicken legs, and remove the bones"

Hearing that the woman was so attentive, the corners of Pei Xuanling's mouth rose slightly.

"Yes, I'm going now, servant girl." After Chun Xing agreed, she went out.

Standing aside with his head bowed, Huang Dechang saw an uncontrollable smile on the corner of the prince's mouth.

Jiang Meiren was sick and couldn't eat. His Highness was patronizing to make Jiang Meili happy and coaxing Jiang Meili to eat. His anger had long since dissipated. How could he remember what he was here for?

After more than half an hour, Chun Xing came back with the food box.

Huang Dechang took the court ladies and eunuchs to set meals in the inner room and test the poison.

Chunxing waited for Jiang Shishi to wash and clean her hands.

After the eunuch tested the poison, Pei Xuanling sat at the table to eat.

Chun Xing served Jiang Shishi a bowl of rice and a bowl of soup, picked up the dishes, and put them on the bedside cabinet.

For heart disease, as long as you untie your heart knot, it will work better than a panacea.

After being enlightened by the prince, most of Jiang Shishi's knots were resolved.

The remaining half was also solved by the prince's heart-warming actions.

In addition, she didn't eat much all day today, she was really hungry, so she ate some meals.

However, after all, I still had a smaller appetite than usual. I only ate a bowl of rice and drank a bowl of crucian carp tofu soup.

It was the first time for Pei Xuanling to eat pepper chicken and pickled pepper bullfrog.

The peppery chicken is mellow and salty, tender and delicious, and the pickled pepper bullfrog is hot and sour and tender, both of which are appetizing dishes.

Therefore, Pei Xuanling ate three bowls of rice tonight, and also drank a bowl of crucian carp tofu soup.

After eating and drinking enough, the servants began to clean up the table and chopsticks.

Jiang Shishi had no energy before, probably because she was hungry.

Now that I am full, I have strength, my knots have been untied, and my spirit is different.

She told Chun Xing, "Pour Your Highness a cup of tea!"

Pei Xuanling sat on the chair beside the bed, glanced sideways at the woman sitting on the bed from the corner of his eye, "Thank you for your kind hospitality tonight."

Jiang Shishi: "As long as His Highness eats comfortably."

"It's just a comfortable meal, but these few dishes at night are estimated to cost at least two or two hundred silver, and one meal will eat up your salary for more than two years. Don't you feel bad?"

While speaking, Pei Xuanling stared at the woman's eyes and expression with burning eyes.

Knowing that Roubaozi was weak, he didn't need to be scared, so he didn't say this before the meal, so that she wouldn't be able to eat again.

Now that he is full of food and drink, he will have a good talk with her.

"Distressed. How can I not feel distressed. My heart is broken." Hearing the unusual words in the prince's words, Jiang Shishi pretended to be distressed.

"But it's rare for Your Highness to dine with this concubine, and even saying that he wants to help my elder brother is a waste of money. The concubine not only has to satisfy you, but also has to make you happy, don't you think?"

"It's good that you have such intentions, but I just want to ask, where does your money come from?"

"Didn't His Highness reward the concubine with silver and gold last time? Speaking of which, I have to thank Your Highness, so that the concubine can satisfy my greed occasionally."

"Gu has already been checked by someone. The meals you bought in the imperial dining room recently have already spent the money that Gu rewarded you."
