Bai Sinian realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly lowered his head in panic.
"I made a mistake, please forgive me!"
"that……"
"Your Highness, has the Second Prince led his troops out of the city?"
Bai Sinian quickly changed the topic, fearing that he would say something wrong again and make Song Liang even more dissatisfied.
Song Liang said lightly "Yes": "I just took 10,000 elite soldiers and left in a show of glory."
"The battle was so loud that I wished the whole capital could hear it!"
When Song De was mentioned, Song Liang's eyes seemed to be full of hatred.
Obviously everyone is also a prince, but Song De can get such attention just because he has a mother-in-law who was born in a general family!
Compared with the good-for-nothing Old Fourth, he was originally only half a catty, a bird of a feather.
In terms of talent and learning, how can he compare with me!
However, it was because of the strong support of General Hu Fu that he had the capital to gamble!
When he thought of this, Song Liang felt angry in his heart.
For so many years, everyone only knew that he was Song De's number one adviser, and he often made suggestions for Song De and recruited followers.
However, only Song Liang understood.
Only by following Song De can he be qualified to contact the powerful.
Otherwise, my situation will be no better than that good-for-nothing fourth child!
I just hope that one day, I can use Song De's hand to get rid of the prince.
At that time, these disciples that I have raised will naturally play their real role...
Thinking of this, Song Liang finally felt some comfort in his heart.
Bai Sinian was very discerning. Seeing Song Liang's expression turn from gloomy to clear, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Last night at the poetry party, I recruited a few more guests for His Highness."
"Of course, I also selected a few new book boys for His Highness..."
Song Liang's eyes lit up when he heard the word "book boy".
"oh?"
"Where now?"
A cryptic smile appeared on Bai Sinian's face, and he personally led Song Liang to a small room in the backyard.
When he opened the door, he saw two boys and girls in the room, each dressed like a doll in a New Year painting.
Song Liang seemed to be very satisfied with Bai Sinian's operation, and a smile finally appeared on his face.
"Very good. You, the book boys, have indeed chosen well."
"By the way, you should choose a new location near the suburbs of Beijing as soon as possible and move there quickly."
Bai Sinian didn't ask much, just lowered his head and replied: "Yes!"
…
Inside the palace.
"Father, you win again!"
"Good guy, you are really a natural genius, the chess master has arrived!"
"Can't win, can't win at all..."
Emperor Liang was blown away by Song Huan's rainbow fart.
"Fourth, the checkers you mentioned is quite interesting."
"I have never played such a weird chess game before!"
"Where did you learn that?"
Emperor Liang is like a walking book of One Hundred Thousand Whys, always filled with so many inexplicable questions.
The key is that Song Huan couldn't answer his question at all!
Song Huan was speechless for a moment: "Well... I learned this from outside by chance."
"My son also knows a game called Doudizhu, which is much more fun than this."
"We must try it next time..."
While he was talking, he saw the eunuch Xiao Lingzi walking forward cautiously.
Behind him, there was a young palace maid.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness."
"The Queen specially sent someone to deliver the tonic, saying it would be good for His Highness's injury..."
As she spoke, the little palace maid behind her came forward and took out a bowl of tonics from the food box she carried with her.
"My slave Xingyue, pay homage to Your Majesty!"
"Meet His Highness the Fourth Prince!"
"Your Highness, this is the tonic specially brewed by the Queen for you. It will have a miraculous effect on your wound recovery!"
Looking at the strange bowl of tonic, Song Huan immediately frowned.
Would Empress Shangguan be so kind as to give herself tonics?
She wished she had died!
"Thank you, Queen, for your kindness. I appreciate it."
"You'd better take this tonic back with you!"
Unexpectedly, the palace maid Xingyue started sobbing on the spot as soon as these words came out.
"I heard that something happened to you, Your Highness. The Queen blamed herself so much that she couldn't sleep all night."
"The empress said that I used to be too harsh on you, Your Highness. Now that I heard that you were assassinated outside, I just feel very distressed."
"This tonic was boiled by the Queen herself, and it was also her wish..."
Song Huan remained silent, just watching Xingyue's performance quietly.
The threats failed before, but now they have to play the family card, right?
But don't say that this tonic is not adulterated, otherwise Song Huan will not be able to drink it safely!
"Oh? It seems that the Queen is really concerned about my king's health."
"But I am afraid of suffering. Although this tonic nourishes the body, it must be very painful, right?"
However, what Song Huan never expected was.
Xingyue actually picked up the medicine bowl and took a big sip!
"Your Highness, look!"
"Although this medicine is indeed a bit bitter, good medicine is bitter and can cure diseases better."
"If you drink it, it will definitely help your injury!"
Looking at Xingyue's overly sincere eyes, Song Huan was completely confused.
The palace maid drank so neatly and without any hesitation.
Could it be that there is really no technology or hard work in this medicine?
Really a tonic?
Song Huan was doubtful and glanced at Emperor Liang who was sitting next to him.
After a long time, Emperor Liang finally said: "Since it is the queen's heart, just drink it."
Even if Empress Shangguan really hated Song Huan, she wouldn't be stupid enough to poison him in front of Emperor Liang!
This move was most likely just about playing the emotional card to gain Emperor Liang's favor.
Now that Emperor Liang had spoken, Song Huan said nothing more, picked up the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
"Holy shit!"
bitter!
It’s so damn hard!
Even Song Huan had every reason to suspect that Empress Shangguan sent such a bowl of tonic with the purpose of making herself suffer to death!
Song Huan didn't expect this thing to be terribly painful. He was caught off guard and coughed violently.
"Cough cough cough cough..."
Xingyue was startled, and quickly stepped forward and presented Song Huan with a handkerchief.
"Your Highness, please drink slowly!"
"Be careful of choking!"
Song Huan was helpless. It seemed that today's bowl of tonic meant that he could not escape.
Seeing Song Huan obediently drink the tonic, Xingyue smiled brightly and bowed to Song Huan and Emperor Liang Yingying.
"Tomorrow, my servant will send you medicine again. I believe that with the Queen's tonic, His Highness's injuries will surely recover as soon as possible."
"Slave, please leave!"
What?
Will you send it back tomorrow?
"I won't drink anymore, I won't drink anymore, I won't drink anything!"
Song Huan's face wrinkled up. The tonic was bitter and sour, making his tongue numb.
Even if Empress Shangguan didn't poison herself, her tongue would probably be bitter from the tonic!
