The little girl hides her secrets

Chapter 45 45. Face Saint
The prime minister's mansion, Zhongjinyuan.

Yun Xi closed her eyes slightly and lay unconscious on the bed.

Dou Yantang lit the moxa stick and let it burn naturally for a while. After seeing that the firepower was stable, he began to moxibustion Yun Xi.

Tianyi and Tianqing stayed by the side until Yunxi woke up leisurely.

He looked calm, obviously used to the sudden coma.

Tianci was sitting on the roof, gently wiping the blood stains on his hands, when he heard three clear and rhythmic knocking sounds, he stopped, came to Yun Xi and knelt down.

Yun Xi smelled a faint smell of blood, frowned, and said, "Don't bring blood in next time."

"Yes." Godsend replied.

Yun Xi sat up slowly, his face was fragile and sickly pale, he glanced at Tianci, and said, "Go to the warehouse, and bring more things to Yun Yao."

There are not many houses in the inner circle of Kyoto, and Yun Xi knew about it the day Yun Yao moved in.

Tianci agreed, got up and left, and saw Yun Shu holding a stack of papers at the door. Recently, there was an undercurrent in the capital. As the subordinates who had the most work, both of them had a trace of fatigue on their faces.

Tian Shu walked in respectfully, with an undiminished air of elegance.

Dou Yantang's eyes flicked between the two of them for a while, and he left wisely to take care of his big baby in the garden.

"How's the investigation going?" Yun Xi took the tea from Tianyi and took a sip, feeling a warm current in her stomach.

Tianshu had a strange look on his face, he handed the things he found to Yun Xi, and told Yun Xi about the demon star.

Then he said a little puzzled: "This subordinate really can't figure out what the celestial master is doing. It won't benefit him at all. It's as if there are really demon stars in the world, and he is thinking of the people in the world."

Yun Xi's expression remained the same, her eyes skipped over the words, and said, "Just wait and see what happens, he won't be so stupid as to deliberately find His Majesty unhappy."

"No," Yun Xi said again, "I want to face the saint."

Half an hour later, Yun Xi was dressed in a dark purple python-patterned official uniform, sitting weakly on the carriage, with a trace of majesty in his sickness, like a ghost king in the dark night, being escorted into the palace by a group of people.

Unexpectedly, outside the hall, I ran into Zhao Linshan who had a vicissitudes on his face.

According to the rules, Yun Xi was going to come down to salute the Celestial Master, but Yun Xi was not in good health, so His Majesty spared him from saluting to everyone.

Li Fu respectfully led the two into the side hall, Yun Xi finally got off the carriage at the entrance of the side hall, but did not take a seat in the side hall, just stood quietly, waiting for His Majesty to come over.

Zhao Linshan sat on the lower seat exhaustedly, his face was solemn, full of thoughts, and he looked as if a catastrophe was imminent, and he completely lost his former strength of character.

The emperor came late, seeing Yun Xi standing in the distance, with a smile on his face.

Seeing His Majesty approaching, the two knelt down respectfully.

"Aiqing, get up quickly," Emperor Shao helped Yun Xi up, and said, "You don't need to salute, why are you still kneeling?"

Yun Xi got up slowly, the thick and heavy official uniform was very stuffy, a few drops of sweat leaked from his forehead, and his lips were pale, he said: "Don't invalidate the gift because of the reason of the minister, it will damage the dragon's prestige."

Emperor Shao's smile deepened, and then he saw the Celestial Master, and said calmly, "Please invite the Celestial Master, too."

"I don't know why the two of you saw me today." Emperor Shao slowly took the high position. This is the side hall where ministers are received on weekdays, but the dragon chair is as heavy as the main hall.

Zhao Linshan's cloudy eyes were bloodshot, he had not rested for many days, and he finally made up his mind to come face the saint.

He said in a trembling voice: "I didn't think carefully before and said something that was not in accordance with the rules. I really deserve death. But now the situation is serious and there is no need to delay. I hope Your Majesty will allow me to do something."

Surrounded by air-conditioning, Emperor Shao said, "Tianshi please tell me."

"Your Majesty, please summon the courtiers to the main hall, and allow the ministers and a group of disciples to perform deeds in the main hall to get rid of the demon star. After the demon star is eliminated, I will let your majesty deal with it."

As Zhao Linshan spoke, his head was on the ground and he didn't lift it up.

Emperor Shao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but suspect that the reason why the Celestial Master spent so much effort was to use this method to win over the hearts of the people and consolidate the position of the Hall of Celestial Masters.In this way, no matter how much he dislikes him, he can't do anything to him.

Instead of answering, he looked at Yun Xi and asked, "Ai Qing, what do you think of this matter?"

The hair under Yun Xi's hair crown was meticulous, and his voice was clear and respectful: "I know that I am incompetent and don't understand astrology, but it is a good thing that the Celestial Master is so considerate of the country. Besides, the people love the Celestial Master, so it is good to use this opportunity to let the people Don't worry, I think this is feasible."

It was the first time Tianshi saw Yun Xi standing by his side and speaking, he was quite surprised.

However, Yun Xi's tone changed, and she continued: "But the main hall is the important place of the imperial palace after all. In the past, it was only used to receive foreign envoys and offer sacrifices to pray for rain. The Celestial Master's proposal is against the rules and must be punished, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public."

"Oh?" Emperor Shao couldn't see any joy or anger on his face, he asked: "Yun Aiqing is right, so what kind of punishment do you think is appropriate?"

Yun Xi showed a slightly deliberative look, and said: "The Celestial Master is old, why not pass on the position of the Celestial Master to the disciples after the religious ceremony is over, so as to support the rest of the world."

This is the removal of Zhao Linshan's position as a celestial master.Emperor Shao was satisfied, and was about to speak when Zhao Linshan raised his head.

Zhao Linshan's hair was gray and his forehead was red, he said without a moment's hesitation: "In order to get rid of the demon star, I am willing to abdicate."

"Okay," Shao Huang's voice came like a flood: "Seeing that the Celestial Master is eager to protect the people, I agree, and the Celestial Master will go down and prepare."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for agreeing." The Celestial Master kowtowed again and stepped back.

Yun Xi's expression did not change, she was convinced in her heart that the Celestial Master did not plot anything.

Seeing that Yun Xi was getting weaker and paler, Emperor Shao asked with concern: "It is rumored that the genius doctor is in the prime minister's residence, why doesn't Aiqing seem to be improving."

Yun Xi respectfully said: "The genius doctor has excellent medical skills, to tell the truth, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stand in front of His Majesty now."

"I didn't expect Aiqing's weakness to be so serious." Shao Huang said.

"It's just that my body is too weak," Yun Xi said, "Even if the genius doctor takes good care of him, he can barely maintain his voice. I don't know how much time is left."

Emperor Shao sighed, and said with concern on his face: "Aiqing can just cultivate in the mansion, why come to see me?"

Yun Xi knelt down respectfully, and said: "I have been back to Beijing for many days, and I should have entered the palace to face the saint, but my body is too weak, and I fainted frequently, so I only came today, and I feel very guilty."

Emperor Shao stepped forward, gently supported Yun Xi and said, "Ai Qing, don't need to feel guilty, even though you cultivate yourself in the mansion, you don't have to go to court on weekdays, just ask someone to pay for you if you have something to do."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor was worried that something would happen to Yun Xi, so he called a group of guards and imperial physicians to escort Yun Xi, and went back in a mighty way.

He watched Yun Xi leave, and said to Li Fu in a good mood: "Get the pen and paper ready, I'm going back to draw up an order."
