Song Yuan
Chapter 29
Sun mama used to be Liu Zhan's mother's etiquette instructor.
After entering the palace, she had always been with him. Later, a beautiful woman had an unfortunate life.
Liu Zhan's mother had a serious illness and passed away just like that. Sun mama then came to Liu Zhan's side and usually took care of many trivial matters in Xuande Hall for him.
Therefore, it was not an exaggeration to say that she had watched Liu Zhan grow up.
Now that she heard that this child, whom she had watched grow up, felt sorry for her, her serious face also showed a kind and kind smile.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your sympathy. This servant is in good health.
Besides, this servant wants to see Your Highness get married and have children with my own eyes. This way, when I see Your Highness in the future, I can explain it to her. This servant will take good care of myself. "
Liu Zhan frowned.
"What is Sun mama saying? Even if this prince marries and has children in the future, I still need Sun mama to take care of me. In the future, don't say such bad things."
Sun mama smiled and nodded.
"Yes, yes, yes.
In the future, this servant will wait to take care of the Little Shizi and Little Junzhu for Your Highness, and I have to live well! "As she spoke, she glanced sideways at Song Xuan beside her.
Song Xuan understood.
She stepped forward and skillfully helped the Regent take off his outer robe. Liu Zhan recognized at a glance that this was the palace maid who served lunch at noon.
Sun mama said, "Your Highness,
This servant sees that this little palace maid has learned the rules and etiquette well.
Why don't you let her stay by your side and serve you? "
Liu Zhan didn't find the scent of cosmetics on this little palace maid that he didn't like. When she was close, there was only an unknown fragrance. He nodded in a good mood.
During the day, the Regent didn't ask about the big and small matters like before. He leisurely sat in his exclusive seat and coldly watched the ministers ask the Emperor until he was sweating profusely.
Which one of the people who could stand below wasn't a human sperm? At a glance, they could tell that the Regent was finally dissatisfied with the Emperor.
These ministers were also not very satisfied with the person sitting on the dragon throne now. Not to mention his stupidity, the key was that he didn't have any self-awareness at all. He always thought that he was clever and did small actions that others couldn't see. It was simply laughable.
In fact, the former Emperor, Liu Zhan's father, had no other choice. The royal bloodline was withered, and there were only two princes left.................. Liu Zhan was born of his beloved concubine.......... and......................................................
The First Prince was an honest man. After he became the Emperor, he didn't want to kill all of them. Instead, he took good care of Liu Zhan, his half-brother. When he died, he made Liu Zhan the Regent to assist the next Emperor.
In his previous life, Liu Zhan was grateful for the kindness his elder brother had shown him. Therefore, he tolerated Liu Xiuyao and often avoided him. It wasn't that he didn't see Liu Xiuyao's obvious hostility. He just didn't want to see the country that the Liu family had protected for generations be destroyed. Although, in the end, Liu Xiuyao played with the Great Yong Dynasty until it disappeared.
Liu Xiuyao was cowardly and timid in most matters. But when he met his Imperial Uncle, he didn't hesitate to poison or stab him with a knife.
Song Xuan stayed in Xuande Hall for several months. It was beyond Sun mama's expectations. However, when she thought of Song Xuan's usual behavior, she felt that it was only natural.
After all, it was rare to see someone as meticulous as Song Xuan. As long as the Prince was present, the tea in the hall was never too hot or too cold. The food and clothing were all properly arranged.
Whatever the Prince wanted, he didn't even need to open his mouth. She would offer it to him with both hands. For other masters, doing this wouldn't be a difficult task. However, recently, the Prince's temperament had become increasingly unpredictable. His moods were unstable. Even Wang Shun, who had served the Prince since childhood, couldn't say that he understood the Prince's thoughts.
As a result, Sun mama somewhat admired the young palace maid's meticulousness. If it were her, she couldn't say that she did it better. She hadn't noticed that the Prince's anger had decreased over the past few months.
Also, last time, after Song Xuan had cautiously mentioned the hidden danger of incense in his mouth, there had been no incense in the hall. However, the room was unreasonably empty. Every day, the young palace maid would change the different types of flowers and plants. Not only did it have a fragrance, but it also made people feel better.
What was even rarer was that Sun mama had praised her more than once. This child would obediently smile and not be arrogant or impatient. She still did what she usually did. When people saw her, they couldn't help but like her.
That night, Song Xuan, as usual, helped Liu Zhan to rest. Then, he lowered the curtains on both sides of the bed and carefully extinguished the candles in the bedroom. Only a few lamps were left on in the outer room. They weren't too bright for people to sleep well, but they weren't too dark for people to see clearly.
In the middle of the night, Song Xuan was resting on the soft couch in the outer room. He heard the sound of tables and chairs being pushed down from the inner room. He opened his eyes in alarm and got up to look. He saw that the curtains that he had carefully arranged before going to bed had been torn to pieces. The small table beside the bed had rolled to the ground.
The Prince Regent was leaning against the head of the bed. Song Xuan went forward to carefully examine him. His eyes were tightly closed, his forehead was covered in sweat, the veins on his forehead were bulging, his brows were tightly knitted, and his lips were white. He looked like he was in great pain.
Song Xuan frowned worriedly. In the past few months, she had been slowly detoxifying him. His body had shown that it was indeed getting better. How could this suddenly happen?
Song Xuan placed her hand on his shoulder and gently shook it, trying to wake him up. As a result, Liu Zhan suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were red. He pressed down on Song Xuan's hand on his shoulder with one hand and used his other hand to strangle Song Xuan's neck.
"Your, Your Highness." Song Xuan didn't have time to stop him. His large palm grabbed Song Xuan's neck. His strength was too great. Song Xuan couldn't pry open his hand on his own. He could only reach out and gently stroke his back to help him relax as soon as possible.
In a trance, Liu Zhan smelled a familiar scent. He felt that his splitting headache was slightly relieved. He looked at the person in front of him in a daze and then lost consciousness and fell backwards.
Song Xuan was choked until he couldn't breathe. He wanted to find something to knock him out with, but the force around his neck suddenly loosened. Song Xuan quickly covered his neck and took two steps back. He coughed a few times before he felt like he was alive again.
After his breathing calmed down, Song Xuan was very confused about why the poison was acting up. His poison should have been mostly detoxified, right?
Reaching out to check his pulse, he found that the amount of poison in his body that had been gradually decreasing had actually increased by another type. The combination of the two types of poison should have formed a highly toxic poison, but because of Song Yao, the amount of the first type of poison in Liu Zhan's body was very small. Now, only the second type of poison was left, which was why he had such a reaction tonight.
Song Xuan narrowed his eyes and revealed a trace of coldness. He was thinking about whether or not he should teach the Emperor a lesson. His little tricks came one after another. It was really annoying.
This medicine clearly entered the body through the nose through the mouth. Liu Zhan had gone to the Central Hall today, so he should have been drugged at that time.
The next day, Liu Zhan woke up from his bed. Looking at everything around him, he still felt that something was wrong. There was a blurry image that flashed through his mind.
"Ah Guan?"
Liu Zhan lifted the curtain and called out. Not long after, there were hurried footsteps coming over. Liu Zhan frowned. This definitely wasn't Ah Guan's footsteps. She was always calm and her steps had a unique rhythm. No matter how big the situation was, she would never panic. But now, the footsteps were clearly messy and hurried.
Walking in front, Liu Zhan raised his head to look. The one leading the group was not his palace maid. His eyes were cold, "Where's Ah Guan?"
The palace maid leading the group saw his highness's expression and trembled as she knelt down to beg for mercy, "Re-reporting to your highness, Ah Guan jiejie isn't feeling well today, so … so Nurse Sun sent me over …"
Not feeling well?
How could she not be feeling well?
Stepping down from the bed, Liu Zhan looked down in annoyance at the palace maid who was still trembling. He said impatiently, "Change clothes!"
Hearing this, the palace maid quickly got up from the ground. She held the gorgeous robe with both hands and shakily draped it over Liu Zhan. Liu Zhan couldn't stand it. He reached out and grabbed the robe. He quickly put it on. He didn't even have time to hang up the jade pendant and the sachet. He strode out the door and ordered a little palace eunuch guarding the door, "Call Wang Shun over."
When Wang Shun arrived, the Regent was sitting in the main hall with a bad expression. He held a teacup in his hand but didn't drink. His eyes were down as he carelessly used the lid of the bowl to remove the floating tea. Seeing Wang Shun come in, he casually threw it on the table. The expensive tea set spun a few times on the table before stopping. It was lucky that it didn't break.
Wang Shun quickly knelt down to greet. Liu Zhan waved his hand to indicate for him to rise, "What happened last night?"
"Answering wang ye, last night you suddenly … suddenly," Wang Shun said as he raised his head to look at the Regent. Liu Zhan said in a deep voice, "Continue."
"Yes," Wang Shun lowered his head and continued to narrate, "Last night you suddenly went crazy in your dream. Ah Zhen guniang was the first to discover it. Then she informed nucai to call the imperial physician. But the imperial physician didn't find anything unusual!"
"Then Ah Zhen?"
"Answering wang ye, Ah Zhen guniang … when Ah Zhen guniang went in to check on your situation last night, she was accidentally injured by you …"
Liu Zhan's brows furrowed when he heard this. After a while, he asked in a low voice, "Is the injury serious?"
"Answering wang ye, nucai had the imperial physician take a look last night. Fortunately, it's only a superficial wound."
Liu Zhan's raised heart relaxed a little. Thinking of his unknown madness last night, he coldly said, "Don't keep this thing that doesn't know life from death. Have the secret guards take care of it."
During the noon meal, Liu Zhan lost his appetite when he saw the table full of food. Adding in the fact that the servants were trembling, their hands were shaking as they picked up food. He threw his chopsticks on the table. The palace servant next to him who was already trembling in fear knelt down with a "peng" sound. Everyone in the room knelt down. The one in front kept kowtowing, "Wang ye, have mercy, please have mercy …"
Liu Zhan saw that she was bleeding and his heart was even more disgusted. He impatiently said, "Take her out for ben wang."
The little taijian at the door quickly took her away. If they were any slower, wang ye would have cut her down.
Sun momo looked at the wound on Song Xuan's neck. She first knitted her brows and then said in a warm voice, "Good child, it's been hard on you. Don't do anything for the next two days. Just stay in your room and rest. It won't be too late to serve wang ye when you're better."
Song Xuan gave a obedient smile, "Thank you for mama's concern. This servant understands."
