Xiangmen black-bellied woman

Chapter 71 Let's End Today
Shen Ninghua is wearing a brocade satin dress. The skirt and sleeves are embroidered with large red rhododendrons. The bright red petals and light-colored stamens compete for beauty, making her bright and noble, unparalleled in the world.

Mrs. Zhao looked up at Shen Ninghua who was coming against the light, and seemed to be insane for a moment: "Sister..."

Shen Ninghua's pupils shrank suddenly, and the one who made Zhao Yunxiang call her sister must be her mother Xia Jingyan. The moment her eyes moved, she immediately asked, "Why are you sitting on the ground?"

Mrs. Zhao trembled, her expression still a little unclear: "I... I... Sister, why are you back? Didn't you go there with peace of mind? Are you blaming me for not doing what I promised you? That's not my fault, it's not my fault of……"

Wen Qiu shook Zhao's arm vigorously: "Ma'am, what's wrong with you, Ma'am?"

Mrs. Zhao suddenly returned to her senses, and after seeing the person in front of her clearly, her face turned pale: "Shen Ninghua!"

Shen Ninghua glanced at Wen Qiu, a trace of pity flashed in her eyes, but she quickly calmed down: "I have seen mother, you still have a younger brother in your stomach, but you must pay attention, Wen Qiu, go out and bring some bird's nests for mother to press." Squeeze the shock." It seems that Mrs. Zhao must know the cause of her biological mother's death, since that is the case, then she is not in a hurry, she has many ways to dig out the truth from Mrs. Zhao.

"You don't need to bring any bird's nest, I can't eat even if I have dragon liver and phoenix marrow, Shen Ninghua, are you happy now?" Zhao Shi looked at her with hatred, wishing to poke a hole in her body with her eyes.

Shen Ninghua walked to the chair next to her and sat down. Qingque and Bizhu stood behind her respectively: "Why don't I understand what mother is talking about? I heard that my father and brother Xuan Ye were called into the palace, and I was also worried. Don't worry, mother, don't get me wrong."

"I misunderstood you?" Zhao stared at her, "Shen Ninghua, you designed all of this, you just want to kill us, don't you?"

Shen Ninghua gave her a cold look, got up and straightened her dress: "Mother, since you don't have any important matters, I will go into the palace. The emperor has summoned me."

"You are presumptuous!" Full of anger, Zhao picked up a porcelain bottle on the table, and threw it at Shen Ninghua's back.Qing Que turned around and kicked the porcelain vase in front of Mrs. Zhao, smashing it hard at her feet.

Mrs. Zhao took a sharp breath, and roared through gritted teeth: "Shen Ninghua, you bastard, I should have let the master strangle you to death!"

Shen Ninghua stopped and turned her head, her voice was cold and emotionless: "It's a pity that I didn't die back then, so you are the ones who died now."

"You... you bitch!"

Shen Ninghua sneered: "Mother should take good care of her health and think about how to protect the Shen family."

Sitting on the ground limply, Zhao shi looked at the back of Shen Ninghua leaving, with no trace of blood on her face.Shen Linghan ran into the door and saw Zhao Shi's appearance, she panicked and said, "Mother, what's wrong with you? Did Shen Ninghua do something to you? This bitch, I'll go find her to settle the score!"

"stop!"

"Mother?"

"You stay at home honestly. I'll go to Zhao's house. If your father and elder brother come back, please let me know." Mrs. Zhao stood up and walked towards the door with a pale face.

Shen Linghan stepped forward to support her: "Mother, I will go with you to beg my grandmother, she will definitely help us."

Looking at her, Mrs. Zhao felt for the first time that she had raised her too ignorant of world affairs: "Grandmother? Linghan, I'm just a concubine in the Zhao family." Once the crisis comes, they are the first An abandoned one, do you really think the Zhao family cares about their mother and daughter?If she really cared, Mrs. Zhang wouldn't be so blatantly provocative!

Shen Linghan froze in place, unable to react stupidly, in her heart, she had always been a proud girl of heaven, and she had always regarded Queen Zhao Huiying as a role model to learn from, thinking that she was the No. One day I will have nothing.

"Mother, please ask His Royal Highness, he will help us."

Mrs. Zhao suddenly stopped in her tracks: "You mean the prince?"

"En." Shen Linghan gritted her teeth, "That jade pendant was given to me by the prince himself in the palace. He said that he could marry me as his side concubine. With the prince and empress, we will definitely be able to survive this crisis .”

Mrs. Zhao thought for a while, then turned and walked out.

After exiting the south gate of Kyoto, the neighing of horses sounded:
The fast horse galloping eight hundred miles into the capital galloped all the way, and there were traders who couldn't dodge being knocked down on the street, and they didn't even dare to cry out in pain, so they quickly crawled to the side to hide.

At the gate of the palace, guards stood solemnly, their sharp spears shining coldly.From a distance, he saw a horse galloping towards him and quickly grabbed his weapon to stop him.

"Eight hundred miles, hurry up, open the gate of the palace!"

The cavalry on the horse held the gold medal and rushed over without slowing down.

The guard saw the gold medal and hurriedly gave way, and the heavy palace gate slowly opened.The cavalry galloped in with whips on their horses, and rushed in the direction of Chengqian Palace.

After a while, the heavy drum sounded: "Boom! Boom! Boom!" Each sound was heavier and faster than the sound.The whole of Kyoto was silent, only the sound of heavy drums could be heard throughout the capital.

Officials, big and small, were dispatched one after another. Even Prince Gong and Prince Zhi, who were no longer in court, put on court clothes and rushed to the palace regardless of their old age.

All officials above the fifth rank who can enter the palace enter the palace and wait for orders in Chengqian Palace, and all those who are not qualified to enter the palace kneel and wait at the noon gate of the palace.The common people knelt behind the officials one after another, surrounded by dense circles with the palace as the center on the inner three floors and the outer three floors.

The Tongtian Drum will only be sounded when there is a major event related to the safety of the country. As long as the drum is sounded, all officials, big and small, will enter the palace as long as they have breath. It rang once during the battle. The war lasted for two years, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers were killed or injured. It took ten years of recuperation for Da'an to recover eight percent of its vitality.And this time, it was the second time the Tongtian Drum was sounded.

When the drums sounded, Shen Ninghua was in Princess Anning's palace.Hearing the sound of the drum, Princess Anning stood up abruptly and then knelt down in the direction of Chengqian Palace.After kowtowing and saluting, she immediately changed into a full set of princess costumes, and walked out with Shen Ninghua: "Ninghua, the heavenly drum is ringing, if it can't be resolved, the world will really be in chaos."

Shen Ninghua looked in the direction of Chengqian Palace, her expression was so indifferent that she could not see any emotion: "Princess, don't worry, with the emperor and several princes here, there will be no chaos in this world."

Princess An Ning nodded and forced a smile: "I hope."

In Chengqian Hall, the emperor Baili Qingcang sat on the golden throne, his whole body was cold and faintly tinged with a tyrannical aura.The Chinese and military officials in the main hall knelt on both sides, and Shen Dong, Zhao Kun, and Shen Xuanye knelt in the center of the main hall.

Baili Qingcang's gaze was like a mountain, pressing down on everyone's heads, making people especially careful when breathing:
"The plague in the south of the Yangtze River, 10,000+ people are in danger. I have raised you for many years. Now is the time to use you. Can anyone tell me what to do?"

There was silence in the hall, and all the officials were silent.

"Why, you don't talk? Usually you are not eloquent, what's the matter now, can you make people dumb?"

"The humble minister deserves death."

Baili Qingcang smiled coldly: "Since you say that you deserve death, then I will have someone drag you all out and beheaded, so as to save a bunch of money!"

The civil and military officials knelt down and shouted: "The emperor calm down, please forgive me!"

"Since you don't know how to solve it, think about it, think about it carefully, when you think about it and when you get up." Baili Qingcang frowned deeply, and ordered in a cold voice.

Crown Prince Baili Jinyi stepped forward: "Father, my son has something to say."

"speak!"

"Reporting to my father, the Shen family and the Zhao family have jointly researched a prescription for treating the plague. The prescription was effective in the early stage, but it was only after two days that the symptoms of discomfort began to appear and the consequences were serious. So at least it shows that the prescription is still slightly effective. Yes, so, why not let the two families take out the research manuscripts and let the Tai Hospital study it as a whole, maybe they can find a way to improve it, so as to save the people from the fire."

The officials agreed after hearing the words:

"His Royal Highness is right."

"Yeah, the best way now is to find an antidote."

'"That's right, that's exactly what it is."

Baili Qingcang frowned slightly, and the officials below fell silent instantly.

"The prince's suggestion is good, Shen Dong, Zhao Kun, you should agree with the prince's statement, right?"

Shen Dong knelt on the ground, covered in cold sweat, his intestines were green with regret, if he hadn't been greedy to study those prescriptions, there would be no troubles today, but now he has been forced to the cliff, it's just a step back In the abyss, I had to grit my teeth and press it: "Report to the emperor, the research manuscripts for the prescriptions are all in the mansion of this official."

"Well, since that's the case..." Before Baili Qingcang could finish his sentence, the servant's report came from the door.

"Report! The governor of the Jingwei government is begging to see you."

Baili Qingcang frowned: "Xuan."

Jingwei Mansion Yin ran in quickly, "Reporting to the emperor, the servant passed by Prime Minister Shen's mansion on the way into the palace, and heard that the study in the prime minister's mansion caught fire, and all the manuscripts for researching the prescription were burned."

Shen Dong was kneeling on the ground, but when he heard this sentence, he almost fell to the ground with his hands limp: The manuscript was destroyed, how could it be such a coincidence?
The blue veins on Baili Qingcang's forehead surged, and he was full of anger: "Okay, it's really good!"

"Your Majesty, the prescription is that the dog Shen Xuanye is smoking and drinking. He can recount the research process, Xuanye, can't he?"

Seen by Shen Dong's earnest eyes, Shen Xuanye nodded hastily: "Report to the emperor, the servant can indeed repeat it."

However, Chen Yun shook his head: "Your Majesty, forgive me for speaking bluntly. It is the first time for me to study the prescription for treating the plague. It can be said that I have no clue at all. Whether Shen Xuanye's idea is right or wrong, I don't know what to do. No way of knowing."

Shen Xuanye's eyes moved, and he suddenly said: "Your Majesty, Shen Ninghua, the slave's elder sister, provided the medicine to treat the plague, and the slave analyzed it to get the ingredients of the prescription. Maybe my sister still has the medicine!"

The second prince Baili Jinchuan narrowed his eyes suddenly, and a cold killing intent flashed in his heart, this Shen Xuanye wanted to drag Ninghua into the water, he really deserved death!

Baili Qingcang frowned, thinking of the child he met last time, a trace of unknown emotion flashed in his eyes: "Xuan Shen Ninghua."

A loud announcement resounded through the palace: "Xuan Shen Ninghua!"

Shen Ninghua got up from Princess Anning, looked up at the direction of Chengqian Palace, her eyes flashed with smoke and clouds: Shen family, let's make a break today...
