"Cure the epidemic?" The man's tone was calm, and there was no hint of emotion or anger, "She is quite capable."
Queen Zhu felt nervous and said hurriedly, "Mrs. Yong Chenghou likes to hone her medical skills. Maybe she has some attainments in this field."
The man turned the jade ring on his hand and said, "Today morning, Sein Fei reported that he had a large number of medicinal herbs to treat the epidemic to be handed over."
"I wanted to reward him, but he waved his hand and said that he was doing something for Mrs. Yongcheng." The man's voice was low, "The Queen just praised her again. It seems that she really wants to see me."
Queen Zhu smiled and sat next to him, "Nothing can escape the eyes of the emperor. Mrs. Yongcheng ordered her maid to bring some herbs and advised me to take care of her health. I was moved and naturally wanted to ask for a reward for her. "
The man closed his eyes and whispered, "It just so happens that I also want to meet her."
The next day, Fang Xu was ordered to enter the palace. The leading palace servants did not dare to pay attention to her and took her directly into the Yangxin Palace.
"Mrs. Hou, please." The palace man stood outside the palace and leaned forward and said.
Fang Xu raised his feet and walked in, and happened to see the tall and erect man standing in front of the golden throne with his hands behind his back. He looked like a dragon and a phoenix, and his whole body could not conceal his dignified and fierce aura.
This is the emperor of the Yan Dynasty.
Fang Xu lowered his eyes, his usual dignity instantly dissipated in front of the real emperor.
In front of a generation of emperors, even Fang Xu, who thought he was well-informed, had to restrain his sharp edge, be cautious and cautious at every step.
Fang Xu slowly knelt down and said in a loud voice, "I respectfully wish your majesty to pay your respects."
The emperor lowered his eyes to look at her, and after a while he said quietly, "Get up and answer."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fang Xu stood up, not daring to raise his eyes.
"After Yongcheng Hou left, I didn't often hear news from the Houfu. In the past few months, I have listened very frequently."
A majestic voice with a smile came faintly from above his head, and Fang Xu couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
Fang Xu pursed his lips, neither humble nor arrogant, "After the death of the Marquis, I couldn't hide my grief, so I didn't leave the house often. I only recently got into a good mood and went out for a walk."
The emperor hummed, rubbed the jade ring with his fingers, and said in a low voice, "I heard that the second son of the Marquis participated in this year's imperial examination?"
This is because she has been investigated in advance.
"Yes." Fang Xu lowered his head and said in a gentle voice, "My wife's second son has loved reading since he was a child, and he has some talent."
"He has made a marriage contract with the daughter of General Song's family?" The emperor looked at her with a deep look.
Fang Xu nodded, "Yes."
The emperor was silent, then nodded and smiled softly after a moment, "It's a good marriage."
Fang Xu stiffened, lowered his head and said nothing.
"I have watched that girl Huixin grow up. She has been fond of making trouble since she was a child, and she has no rival for her dominance in the harem." The emperor's voice was indifferent, as if he was talking about an extremely common thing.
"Miss Song is enthusiastic and frank, and I am very happy in my heart." Fang Xu couldn't hear the mood of the person above him, so he could only follow his words.
"This epidemic is coming fiercely. I have heard about what you did in Beijing." The emperor looked at her, and his tone did not make sense.
"You are highly praised by the people. General Song does things for you, and the Queen speaks kind words for you." The emperor chuckled twice, then slapped the table, "You are very capable."
Damn, this temper comes all the time!
Fang Xu's face stiffened and he knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I just want to share the worries of the court and solve your Majesty's problems!"
The hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. After a while, the man's laughter sounded faintly.
"Xie Fang, your courage can't stand up to your ability!" The emperor smiled brightly, completely different from the sullen man just now, "What you did was a good thing, why should I blame you?"
Fang Xu broke out in cold sweat on his back, still kneeling, "Your Majesty is magnanimous."
"I said that after Yong Chenghou leaves, I will protect your family, the orphans and the widowed, and I am true to my words."
Although the emperor said this, he still did not ask Fang Xu to get up.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fang Xu lowered his eyes and stared at the ground, with no trace of displeasure on his face.
Seeing that she was interested, the emperor was satisfied and said, "Tell me, what reward do you want to ask for?"
Fang Xu gritted his back teeth and leaned on the ground, "Your Majesty, I do have something to ask of you!"
"Well, let's talk about it." The emperor closed his eyes and tapped his fingertips on the table. His voice was like a pool of stagnant water, making no waves.
Fang Xu took a deep breath, "I have a biological sister who married Prince Zhan a few years ago."
Hearing the words "Prince of War", the emperor slowly opened his eyes and looked at Fang Xu, his eyes burning brightly.
Fang Xu did not pause and continued, "Princess Zhan is in poor health and has not had a son yet. Her relationship with the prince and his wife has broken down, and she feels guilty, so she has asked herself to come down."
"Unexpectedly, this incident angered the prince, who beat the princess violently, and then locked the princess in the main courtyard and banned outsiders from visiting her."
Fang Xushun followed and deliberately showed some crying, "Your Majesty, I lost my father first and then my husband. The only relative left who can speak my mind is my sister!"
"I don't ask for status or gold or silver. I only ask that your majesty can help me and save my sister from the sea of suffering!"
Hearing this, the emperor thought for a moment and looked troubled, "This... is the War King's family matter after all. It's hard for me to get involved..."
Fang Xu didn't raise his head, and his voice was choked with sobs, "Your Majesty, if there is something wrong with Princess Zhan, I will have no intention of living in this world!"
The emperor hissed, as if he meant something, "As the emperor, I cannot come forward in this matter."
Fang Xu paused, bit her lower lip, and lay on the ground, her sleeves covering her gloomy look.
"Your Majesty, before the death of the Marquis, he left two well-trained teams to my wife, about two to three hundred people, all of them are brave men." Fang Xu knelt on the ground, his voice was cold, "If Your Majesty is willing to take action, To help each other, my wife is willing to hand over these two elite teams to the court to show her loyalty."
These days, among the generals and princes who hold real power, who doesn’t have private soldiers?
Since it was for personal use, he naturally worked hard to train and train. He was not even a bit better than the idle soldiers in the military camp. How could the emperor not be jealous?
This is a secret that everyone knows. Fang Xu brought this matter out in the open just to tell the emperor that there were only women and children left in the Yongcheng Hou Mansion, and they had no second thoughts.
It just so happened that the war on the front line was extremely fierce right now, and the Turks repeatedly provoked her. She didn't believe that the emperor could refuse without hesitation!
As expected, as soon as these words came out, the emperor sitting on top laughed out loud, "Xie Fang, has anyone ever said that you are a smart woman?"
Fang Xu covered his face and rolled his eyes silently, still kneeling on the ground, "Your Majesty is so complimentary, I am just showing my loyalty."
"It's done." The emperor waved his hand and said with a smile, "Get up quickly. I will inform the queen later and declare war on the princess to enter the palace. If there is any injury on her body, I will make the decision for her."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Fang Xu breathed a sigh of relief and stood up slowly.
However, after a few rounds with the emperor, she was so physically and mentally exhausted, which shows how exhausted the person accompanying the emperor must be!
