A dreamless night.
Zhao Yao didn't wake up until he was already asleep. When he woke up, he saw Liang Zhaoyi sitting by the bed and looking at him.
"You're awake, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Liang Zhaoyi reached out and touched Zhao Yao's forehead and face. Seeing that the temperature was normal, she felt completely relieved.
Zhao Yao lay on the bed, stretched out his hands and feet.
"Mother, I feel very good now. I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere."
"That's good." Liang Zhaoyi asked warmly, "Want to get up?"
"I'm hungry. I need to get up to eat." Zhao Yao kicked off the quilt and stood up.
Liang Zhaoyi was afraid of freezing him, so she quickly gave him clothes on the bed.
"Did you still dream last night?"
"No more." He didn't have any more dreams last night, and he slept very peacefully. "Mother, I dreamed of many things last afternoon."
"What did you dream about?"
"There are many good things in the world in the dream that we don't have. I don't know if we can make them." In fact, the dream I had this time when I was sick was the same as the dream I had last time. It's just that he couldn't remember many of the dreams he had last time after he recovered. This dream reminded him of his last dream. However, there is still a lot of content that I haven’t remembered.
"The things in that world are too magical for Da Zhou, so don't make them yet." Liang Zhaoyi told Zhao Yao while dressing her, "We will do it later."
"Even if I want to make some things, I don't have the skills..." Zhao Yao thought for a moment and said, "I don't have the skills."
"Okay, let's not talk about what happened in your dream." Liang Zhaoyi dressed Zhao Yao, led him to sit in front of the dressing table, and helped him comb his hair. "After lunch later, ask Dr. Lu to take your pulse again."
As soon as he heard the words "Mr. Lu", Zhao Yao's heart trembled, and a look of fear appeared on his face.
"Concubine, I no longer have a fever, which means I'm better. There's no need to ask Dr. Lu to take my pulse." Even if he is cured, Dr. Lu will let him drink some more medicine when he comes.
Liang Zhaoyi could tell what her son was thinking at a glance, and poked Zhao Yao's forehead with her finger.
"It's up to Dr. Lu to decide whether you are okay or not."
Zhao Yao pouted his little mouth and said unhappily: "Mr. Lu likes to prescribe medicine to me, and the medicine he prescribes is the bitterest." He was most afraid of seeing Dr. Lu.
"The medicine Dr. Lu prescribed to you is the medicine that can cure your disease." Liang Zhaoyi said warmly, "If you were not sick, Dr. Lu would not prescribe medicine for you."
"I'm not sick, and Dr. Lu will also prescribe medicine." Zhao Yao curled his lips and said, "Doctor Lu likes to exaggerate."
Liang Zhaoyi raised her hand and knocked Zhao Yao on the head, and said with a straight face: "What nonsense are you talking about? Doctor Lu is not such a person. You are not allowed to say that about Doctor Lu again in the future."
Zhao Yao was frightened by Liang Zhaoyi's serious look. He immediately showed a well-behaved expression, "Mother, I was joking just now." He knew that Dr. Lu had good medical skills. He was sick for so long last time, thanks to Dr. Lu for saving him. "I'll never say it again."
"Go wash up."
Zhao Yao took Tong Xi to the side hall next door to wash up, while Liang Zhaoyi went to the dining room.
While Tongxi was waiting for Zhao Yao to wash up, he reported to Zhao Yaohui: "During the morning court, the emperor severely scolded the king in front of all the civil and military officials."
When Zhao Yao heard this, he asked in surprise: "What did King Dai do?"
"I heard that General Yingyang stayed in Yihongyuan all night last night and just left Yihongyuan this morning." Tongxi said, "This General Yingyang is a general under Dai Wang..."
Tong Xi told Zhao Yao exactly what he heard.
"General Ying Yang was demoted to a commoner, and Dai Wang was scolded by the emperor."
Zhao Yao washed his face and said, "It must be someone from the prince's brother who did it."
"Are you saying that the prince's people have been keeping an eye on General Yingyang and the others?"
"It should be so." Zhao Yao guessed, "I'm afraid the prince's brother's people have been eyeing the generals around Dai Wang for a long time, waiting for them to make mistakes."
"That's it." Tongxi added, "My servant also heard that General Ying Yang is a drunkard and a womanizer. He always goes to Yihongyuan every time he returns to the capital, and he stays there for days and nights."
"Brother Prince's people should have had General Ying Yang's hobby for a long time, so they have been eyeing him for a long time."
"Then why didn't the prince's people expose General Yingyang earlier?" Tongxi asked doubtfully, "Isn't there a rule in the court that prohibits court officials from going to brothels to visit prostitutes?"
"The imperial court has such regulations, but the punishment is not very serious. It can only be demoted by one position." Zhao Yao said, "A demoted position is nothing to General Yingyang and King Dai. The elder brother of the prince will deal with King Dai. , it must be fatal in one move.”
"If in normal times, General Yingyang would go to Yihongyuan to visit prostitutes, and he would be given an official position at most. But if he visits prostitutes during the death anniversary of the late Queen, the punishment will be doubled." Zhao Yao added, "This is what the prince's brother is waiting for. The timing makes King Dai lose his trusted general General Ying Yang."
Tongxi said with a look of surprise on his face: "The prince's people are really insidious."
"This is not insidious, this is clever. Besides, General Yingyang himself is to blame. If he had kept himself clean, he would not have been caught by the prince's brother's people." Zhao Yao said, "This is also to blame on King Dai himself. If He strictly controls his generals and this kind of thing will not happen."
"Your Highness is right." Tongxi said, "Now everyone says that the acting king is not strict in controlling his subordinates, and also says that the acting king is disrespectful to the late queen."
Hearing these words, Zhao Yao's expression immediately changed, and then he said meaningfully: "It turns out that the main purpose of the prince brother is to ruin the reputation of the king. He really kills two birds with one stone."
Hearing what Zhao Yao said, Tong Xi also reacted.
"That's right. Your Highness, the Dai Wang, is now accused of being unfilial and disrespectful to the late Queen. The reputation of the Dai Wang who came back from a victorious battle is suddenly gone."
"The King Dai is really dumb this time. He can't tell the story of his suffering." Zhao Yao said with a smile, "I didn't expect that the prince brother would win the game so quickly, and he won the game very beautifully." The next scene will be It’s getting more and more exciting.
"His Royal Highness is really amazing."
Zhao Yao didn't think it was the prince's own idea. He guessed it was the Duke of Zhen's idea. Or maybe it was Myna’s idea.
"By the way, how about Tong'an?"
"Tongan's injury has improved a lot. He stayed in the cold palace very honestly and didn't ask questions." Tongxi said, "He also helped Tongle take care of Lailu and the others."
Zhao Yao looked thoughtful.
"Your Highness, what are the arrangements for Tong'an next? Do you want him to continue to take care of Lailu and the others together with Tongle?"
"Tongan is good at painting. You will bring him some pens, inks, paper, inkstones and paints later, and then ask him in detail what he is best at painting, whether it is people, scenery, or animals." He had to first find out what Tongan was good at painting. , so that he can plan what he will do in the future.
"My slave will be there soon."
Zhao Yao thought that Zhao Yao in his dream could also draw, but with a different pen.
"Go get me a charcoal pencil."
"Charcoal pen?" Tongxi asked with a confused face as he heard about this kind of thing for the first time, "Your Highness, what is charcoal pen? Is it a pen?"
"It's a pen made of charcoal."
"Can charcoal also be used to make a pen?"
"You just make the charcoal into the shape of a pen, and then put a layer of wood on top of the charcoal, just like a brush."
Tong Xi understood what Zhao Yao meant, "I understand."
"Go have breakfast." Zhao Yao in the dream can draw, but I wonder if he can.
Liang Zhaoyi and Guixing have already laid out breakfast. They and Poppy had already had dinner.
Zhao Yao just happened to be unable to eat greasy food. His breakfast only consisted of porridge, steamed buns and sesame seed cakes, as well as two plates of pickles and vegetarian dishes.
"Concubine, my mouth is bitter. Can I put sugar in the porridge? Can I put honey?"
"Okay, I'll put the honey for you." Liang Zhaoyi scooped a spoonful of honey and put it into the white porridge in front of Zhao Yao, "Eat it."
"Concubine, it's not sweet enough, please add another spoonful of honey."
"It's not good if it's too sweet. One spoonful is enough."
Zhao Yao pouted and immediately started eating obediently. The white porridge with honey suddenly became sweeter, and Zhao Yao quickly finished the bowl of porridge.
"one more bowl."
After eating two bowls of porridge and two steamed buns, Zhao Yao was full.
As soon as he finished his breakfast, Doctor Lu came.
Seeing Dr. Lu, Zhao Yao felt that his mouth was bitter again.
Doctor Lu first bowed respectfully to Liang Zhaoyi and Zhao Yao, and then took Zhao Yao's pulse.
During the pulse check, Zhao Yao was very nervous, and he was very afraid that Dr. Lu would say that his illness was not cured.
"Your Highness, the cold is no longer a serious problem."
After hearing this, Zhao Yao immediately showed a happy smile on his face and cheered: "My illness is cured and I finally don't need to take medicine anymore."
Liang Zhaoyi asked: "Do you still need to take medicine?"
When Zhao Yao heard what Liang Zhaoyi said, he immediately turned around and glared at Imperial Physician Lu, with a posture of "If you say I still need to drink medicine, I will fight you to the death."
Imperial Physician Lu was amused by Zhao Yao, who was so naughty and naughty. He held back his laughter and said, "Your Highness still needs two more doses of medicine..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhao Yao's exclamation: "My illness is all cured and I don't need to take any more medicine!"
"Your Highness, in order to prevent your cold from coming back, you have to drink two more doses of medicine, so that your cold can be completely cured."
"You did it on purpose." Zhao Yao glared at Imperial Physician Lu angrily.
"Yao Yao!" Liang Zhaoyi shouted with warning.
Zhao Yao instantly became well-behaved.
"Please ask Dr. Lu to prescribe two more medicines."
"This is what I should do."
"By the way, Imperial Physician Lu, can Yaoyao take four-hundred-year-old ginseng to replenish his health?" Yesterday, he received two to four-hundred-year-old ginseng from the fourth prince.
"Yes, but you can only eat a little at a time. It's best to make soup." Dr. Lu said, "When making soup, just put a small piece of ginseng. His Royal Highness is still young. If you eat too much ginseng at one time, , not only can’t replenish the body, but it can also damage the body.”
Liang Zhaoyi nodded and said, "I took note of it."
"Mr. Lu, can the medicine you prescribe for me not be so bitter?" Zhao Yao wrinkled his little face and said with great dissatisfaction, "Every time you prescribe the medicine, I am almost dying of pain."
"Your Highness, medicine is always bitter, especially good medicine."
"Then can you make the medicine into pills, and then wrap a layer of sugar on the outside of the pills, so that it won't be bitter for me to eat." In the dream, the medicines Zhao Yao and the others took were all small pills. You can swallow it with saliva.
Doctor Lu never thought of doing this, "I'll give it a try."
After hearing this, Zhao Yao said with a smile on his face: "That's right." Taking pills is better than drinking medicine.
Zhao Yao: Maybe it was Bago’s idea. Myna was smart and came up with the idea of killing two birds with one stone.
Eighth Prince: It’s not killing two birds with one stone, it’s killing four birds with one stone.
