The King of Chu followed Nangong Yuanyi obediently: "What do you mean? He used the Huo family's food to exchange for his sister's freedom. I think we took a big advantage. Father entrusted such an important job to my hands. Without food, , I am so anxious that I almost go crazy. Don’t you know that a batch of food from the national treasury has been shipped out? If a country is short of food, it will be dangerous..."
Nangong Yuanyi suddenly smiled and said: "Since there is food, are you still afraid that the food will not come out?"
Nangong Heng said anxiously: "Although we are officials and they are citizens, we can't rob them openly. Otherwise, our father will issue an imperial edict asking them to sell grain to the court, because we are afraid that they will raise the price, but they just copied Lin His family’s treasury is quite full.”
"With the imperial edict, I'm afraid the emperor will be infamy for thousands of years." Nangong Yuanyi said: "The imperial court wants to buy food and let them sell it willingly. This is not the best of both worlds. Why use force to suppress people and implement population policies."
As soon as Nangong Heng heard this, he knew that Nangong Yuanyi was an old fox, and he didn't know what bad intentions he had: "What can you do? Uncle Nan Wang, tell your nephew."
After Nangong Yuanyi and Nangong Heng left.
Huo Siqing came out of the inner room and said, "Brother, King Nan has discovered our intentions so quickly. It is impossible for us to avenge our father and mother."
"The Huo family's lack of marriage and faction is all an illusion. They are so rich that they don't need my brother's fame to honor the Huo family. For the sake of her parents, Si Jing is willing to obey the family master's arrangement and marry the prince."
"No, I will not allow you to become a pawn for them. The Queen Mother is not really close to the Prince, and the Prince also knows that you are just acting as a pair of eyes for the Queen Mother by marrying him." Huo Wei analyzed: " Even if you want to avenge your parents, my brother will not trade your happiness."
Their parents died at the hands of the Huo family. The Huo family did not allow his father to take the imperial examination and lived under the influence of the big family all his life because there was a queen mother in the palace who didn't like people gossiping.
For the sake of the reputation of the Queen Mother, the future of the Huo family branch had to be sacrificed. Huo Weixi had long wanted to live such a life, so he took part in the imperial examination to change the fate of himself and his sister.
Unexpectedly, the battle between the Kyoto royal family still affected his sister, and the head of the Huo family decided to send his sister to the Queen Mother.
Huo Weixi looked at the direction Nangong Yuanyi left and murmured: "They will help us." The Huo family is also the enemy of King Nan.
Nangong Yuanyi went to Tingfeng Tower after returning from outside. He glanced around and found that An Xiyue was the only one there.
An Xiyue glanced at him and started busy again: "You are back. Has the matter with King Chu been resolved?"
Nangong Yuanyi suddenly held her in his arms. The poison in his heart was a little painful. An Xiyue felt that his expression was wrong and quickly pushed him away: "Get out quickly, or your poison will attack again."
Nangong Yuanyi stubbornly held her tighter and said softly, "So you use the incense to stun me at night, avoid me during the day, and don't let me touch you at night."
"Did you find out?" An Xiyue felt like something was tugging at her heart, which was even more painful than the love poison he had been poisoned with.
"But I'm already thinking of ways to develop an antidote. When the love poison attacks, the main symptom is heartache, so I'll find a way to make it pain-free for you. As long as it's not painful, the poison will have no effect even if it's in the body."
"So keeping your husband unconscious is a way to spare me the pain." Nangong Yuanyi exposed her directly.
This is what An Xiyue deduced based on what Shi Lingjing said. Isn't this the principle behind their treatment of illnesses and saving lives?
