Liu Xi's words made Leng Yu stunned for a moment. He leaned forward again and helped Liu Xi up.
"Eunuch Liu, I understand your concerns. My wife and I have thought about this matter for a long time, but in the end we have not come up with a reasonable plan. We are also worried that if we rashly stop my father's medicine now, I am afraid that He will face a feeling worse than death because of stopping the medicine. He certainly cannot accept it for a while, but if he stops taking the medicine and continues to take it like this, sooner or later he will die suddenly. He is in such a dilemma. In this situation, what should I do?"
Leng Yu's words made Eunuch Liu's face darken. After a while, he looked sad, clapped his hands vigorously, and replied anxiously:
"Even if it is worse than death if he stops taking the medicine, it is much better than dying suddenly if he continues to take it. I will go back now and try my best to persuade the emperor to let him stop taking the medicine..."
After saying that, he was about to turn around, but Luo Lan hurriedly called him,
"Eunuch Liu, please be patient..."
Hearing this, Eunuch Liu looked back at her in surprise, "Princess Yu, you..."
Luo Lan stretched out his palm and pressed it down, "Eunuch Liu, listen to me. Since you have come to us, for your loyalty, we should do our best. If you persuade the emperor now, If you let him stop taking the medicine suddenly, he will definitely get angry when the medicine takes effect, and he may even commit crimes against you."
"The old slave is old and is not afraid of the emperor's punishment. The old slave only hopes that the emperor will not continue to take this poisonous medicine. The old slave is by the emperor's side all day long. The changes in him during this period are more significant than the old slave. Everyone can see it clearly. If I hadn’t discovered something was wrong with the medicine, I wouldn’t have sneaked out of the palace at night. I don’t know if the emperor is awake yet?”
"I know you are not afraid of the Emperor's punishment, and you are sincerely doing your best for the Emperor. If there is a better way, would you like to try it?"
Luo Lan's words made Liu Xi's legs weaken in an instant. Taking advantage of the situation, he knelt down again and begged with tears in his eyes:
"Princess Yu, as long as you have a way to save the emperor, I can do whatever you want me to do, or I will be willing to work for you for the rest of my life."
"You get up first. You are older than my father. You are always kneeling down for us juniors. We can't bear it."
Liu Xi stood up with Luo Lan's help, her lips trembling with tears and she said:
"I have been a slave for a generation. Although I have been favored by the emperor and do not need to kneel down to salute the princes and ministers, for the sake of the emperor, it is fine for me to keep kneeling. Princess Yu, please tell me, what is better? Is there any way to make the emperor feel better? I will do it even if I die."
Luo Lan raised her eyes to look at Leng Yu and blinked her crystal eyes. When she saw Leng Yu looking at her with the same puzzled eyes, a soft smile suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she turned to look at Liu Xi.
"Eunuch Liu, if you are willing to do what I say, I might give you a try. I will get you some small pills that look exactly like the ones the emperor takes. When you give the emperor the medicine, take the pills. Secretly replace the pills. While the emperor is taking the medicine, do not let him handle government affairs, and do not let outsiders know his condition. You can declare to the outside world that he occasionally feels cold and cannot go to court, but when his drug addiction becomes stronger, no matter how strong he is, It's uncomfortable. You must not give him real pills, and don't tell Concubine Li or Prince Xi and others. Instead, send someone to tell me immediately. I will go to the palace to treat him. Although it may take a longer time, but there is I hope to break the emperor’s drug addiction, would you like to cooperate?”
"Willing, willing..."
As soon as Luo Lan finished speaking, Liu Xi nodded eagerly, "As long as you are good to the emperor and let me do whatever you want, then I will have Princess Lao Yu."
Luo Lan's eyes flashed with a clear look, and then he showed a helpless smile,
"Prince Yu and I don't want to watch the inexplicable death of the emperor of Daning Kingdom. Just as Eunuch Liu said just now, if that happens, it will inevitably cause a bloody storm. If during the civil strife, foreign enemies take advantage of the situation. Enter, that’s not a good thing.”
Luo Lan's words made Liu Xi admire him. He clenched his fists and bowed:
"Princess Yu is truly a righteous person. It is a blessing for Prince Yu and even more so for the Great Ning Kingdom that Prince Yu can marry you. This old slave has been thinking in the past few days that the only person who can save the emperor is you. It seems that I have found the wrong person. I would like to thank you on behalf of the Emperor."
Luo Lan blinked his crystal eyes and chuckled, turned around and walked to the table not far away, then took out dozens of small pills that were consistent with the pills the emperor took from the medical space, wrapped them in a paper bag, and returned Go to Liu Xi's side,
She took out one pill, spread it in the palm of her hand, and raised it to Liu Xi's eyes.
"Eunuch Liu, is this pill consistent with what the emperor takes?"
Liu Xi looked at the small pill in her hand and nodded happily.
"From the outside, they are almost identical."
"That's good. You can take it back first and give it to the Emperor when he needs it. Remember, you have to wait until he is tortured to the point of being in a daze and loses consciousness before you find someone to teach me. Otherwise, he won't let me heal him. .”
Liu Xi hurriedly stretched out his hands, carefully took the few pills, and nodded heavily as if he had found a treasure.
"I'll take note of it. I'll go back first. He's used up the pills. I wonder if Prince Xi has gone."
Hearing that Leng Xi was brought into the palace by the emperor so late, Luo Lan and Leng Yu looked at each other with cold eyes and then sent Liu Xi out.
The moment the door closed, Leng Yu couldn't help but ask:
"Madam, do you really have a way to cure my father's drug addiction?"
Luo Lan sat at the table with an indifferent expression, picked up the tea and took a sip. The moment he put down the cup, he half-closed his eyes and murmured:
"I could have done it, but I was afraid that he wouldn't cooperate, so I didn't want to do that. But I never expected that Eunuch Liu would see the trick hidden in that little pill, and I didn't expect that he would come to us."
Leng Yu sighed happily, "Yes, I didn't expect that the person most loyal to my father was not his bedside man, but his father-in-law who had served him for many years. According to my father's changeable character, , it is rare to have a loyal servant like Eunuch Liu."
Liu Xi had followed the emperor for many years, and the emperor rarely got angry with him, and would even say a lot of personal things to him. This was probably due to the fact that as the chief eunuch, Liu Xi never chose to collude with any prince or minister. , but has always remained neutral and thought of the emperor wholeheartedly. This is equally valuable and the reason why the emperor trusts him so much.
After Liu Xi came out of the palace, he didn't dare to delay for a moment. He held the small pill Luo Lan gave him in his arms, rode the same horse he came from, and quickly headed towards the palace.
