Chapter 401: The End (1)

There is a faint bitter taste in the mouth, as if the whole body is filled with a bitter taste.

Rong Xia opened his eyes, and what he saw was the sunlight coming in from the window, the whole palace seemed to be shrouded in light, he closed his eyes, and his vision became clear.

"Your Majesty, you are finally awake." Wang De was overjoyed when he saw Rong Xia wake up, "Quickly send the imperial doctor, Your Majesty is awake."

There were footsteps coming from outside the hall, Rong Xia glanced at the maids and eunuchs kneeling all over the hall, closed her eyes, and whispered, "I want to rinse my mouth."

After rinsing her mouth with green tea, her mouth finally felt less uncomfortable, Rong Xia glanced around, "Where's your empress?"

"Your Majesty stayed up with you last night, and early this morning, because Master Zhou and Master Liu had something to report, Your Majesty rushed over with a cup of strong tea." Knowing how much His Majesty attaches to Your Majesty, Wang De hurriedly explained in a low voice. , "Before the empress left, I told you again and again that if you wake up, you must send someone to report to her."

"Since your empress is dealing with matters, don't send anyone to disturb you for the time being," Rong Xia sat up with the eunuch's support, and after the imperial doctor gave him the wound medicine, he said to Wang De, "Go and call Zhao Zhong in."

Wang De bowed and stepped back.

Not long after, Zhao Zhong rushed over, and Rong Xia asked the irrelevant people to retreat.

"Your Majesty, how did you get hurt like this?" Seeing Rong Xia's pale face, Zhao Zhong knew that this was not a show, "I have investigated before, this girl is not good at martial arts, and she did not serve the empress since she was a child. "

Your Majesty has already noticed that Princess Anle has something to do with some officials in the court, but because the former prince Jiang Han "appointed" the throne to His Majesty, so in front of the world, His Majesty must treat the royal family of the previous dynasty favorably.

Princess Anle's restlessness is equivalent to tying the rope around her own neck. Zhao Zhong understands it, and His Majesty understands it too. The only thing Zhao Zhong didn't expect was that His Majesty had taken precautions early in the morning, so why was he still injured so badly?

One knife on the arm, one knife on the shoulder, fortunately they are not fatal, but with so much blood, I don't know how long it will take to regain vitality?

"I know," Rong Xia clutched his injured arm expressionlessly, "You don't have to mention this matter in the future, especially don't talk to the queen, I know it well."

"It's because I'm not thoughtful enough," Zhao Zhong said hurriedly, "If the empress hears these words, she will only be more sad." The maid next to the empress hurt her majesty, even if this matter has nothing to do with the empress, the empress felt in her heart It won't feel good either, if he mentions it again, it will only make the empress feel even more uncomfortable.

"The old people from the previous dynasty, just clean up what needs to be cleaned up, and you don't have to worry about it anymore." Rong Xia's voice was cold, "I will treat them with the utmost benevolence and righteousness."

"Your Majesty..." Zhao Zhong hesitated, "Your Majesty has issued an order last night to strictly investigate the old people of the previous dynasty. Anyone who behaves suspiciously will be sent to prison, and even the servants around Princess Anle will be killed. Princess Anle was sent to an ascetic temple to practice Taoism, and she could not leave the temple for life."

Outsiders don't know what the concept of asceticism is, but they are clear about it. Some criminal concubines from the previous dynasty were sent here. It is said that it is worse than the cold palace inside, and life would be worse than death if they entered.

Sending Princess Anle to the ascetic temple, I don't know whether it is the empress's kindness or cruelty to Anle.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Rong Xia's face, and the sternness and coldness just now disappeared without a trace, "Since the empress has issued the Phoenix order, everything will be done according to the empress's wishes."

"Your Majesty, then you..."

"I want to heal my wounds, so I shouldn't overwork myself."

"Yes." Zhao Zhong thought after leaving the Great Moon Palace, what exactly did His Majesty want to say when he was summoned?

In the imperial study room, Ban Hua looked at the high pile of memorials, and couldn't hold back the dignified smile on his face anymore, and looked at Zhou Bing'an with a dry smile: "Master Zhou, do you want to read all of this?"

"Your Majesty, please don't worry, the ministers have already screened out some memorials." Zhou Bingan submitted a list, "This is the list of memorials selected by the ministers."

Banhua took a look at the list, and casually flipped through a few memorials, "Master Zhou, have the places that were hit by disasters a few years ago slowed down recently?"

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty has exempted these hardest-hit areas from paying taxes for two years. Although life is still a bit difficult, at least you don't have to go hungry." Zhou Bing'an looked respectful and gentle, "Many people in the local area are here for Your Majesty to establish a long life with you. Tablet, I pray that you and Your Majesty will be healthy and worry-free for thousands of years."

"Instead of begging us for thousands of years, it is better to pray for a big win and good weather, so that the people will never suffer from catastrophe again." Ban Hua smiled, she didn't believe it, "sirs have worked hard, if there are important contents in these memorials , I will read it to His Majesty."

"Is Your Majesty's injury better?"

Ban Hua looked at the sunlight outside the door with a dazed expression: "It should be fine."

Zhou Bing'an and others saw that the queen had no intention of continuing, so they stood up and left with great eyes.

After they left, Banhua asked the guards to walk away from the back hall of the memorial. When she met Zhao Zhong on the way, she raised her eyebrows in surprise: "Master Zhao?"

"I have seen the Empress." Zhao Zhong was now infinitely impressed by Banhua, and when he saw Banhua for the first time, he couldn't wait to salute him.

"Why are you here? Could it be that His Majesty is awake?"

Zhao Zhongzheng was about to say yes, when he saw a gust of wind blowing in front of him, when he raised his head again, how could there be a queen in front of him? Turning his head, he saw only the back of the Empress leaving in a hurry.

"Rong Xia?" Ban Hua trotted into the hall, saw Rong Xia sitting on the bed drinking porridge, paused, and said after a while, "Are you awake?"

Rong Xia smiled and put down the bowl: "Huahua, I made you worry."

Banhua walked up to him and sat down, stretched out his hand and poked his face, "If you try to be so brave next time, I will teach you a lesson."

"How does Huahua want to teach me a lesson?" Rong Xia showed a terrified expression on her face.

"Hmph," Ban Hua couldn't say anything harsh when he saw how cooperative he was. She pointed to the memorial that the guard put on the table, "I feel a headache looking at these things, I'll approve the unimportant ones for you, and I'll read the rest to you."

"Okay." Rong Xia knew that Ban Hua was impatient to see this, so she nodded with a smile.

"You eat your meal first." Ban Hua walked to the case and looked back at Rong Xia, "I have lost so much blood, I don't know when I can make up for it."

Rong Xia didn't dare to talk back, so she could only obediently let Ban Hua complain.

But soon Banhua didn't speak anymore. She lowered her head and kept writing and drawing in front of the case. Although she was a little impatient, she still dealt with it patiently.

He looked at her back, used up a bowl of porridge without realizing it.
